saw this for past hour
We are working to transition to our new server schema to support the overwhelming interest in this bundle. Please check back soon.
They said they were working on doing this yesterday? why wait till after they started selling it again to take it down to move it....

Problem is first they promote/hype it then it's impossible to get anything. Sure, server overload happens, maybe not put a countdown on it?.. They tell us it will be up after 24 hours, nope same problem. The next deadline is another 24 hours later, nothing. Another message tells us to wait once again for another 24-48 hours. (those 48 hours passed 6 hours ago). My point is, don't make promises you can't keep, especially not more than three times..

Couldn't they just outsource this to Amazon and fork up the money at least for now? I mean, considering they're making more money than they ever have in the past to the point that they can't even keep their site up, it isn't really that big of a deal to pay an outside service a little more than necessary to maintain uptime.
I suspect they're losing quite a bit in sales that can't be processed.

But it can be done within 48 hours, where physically doing it yourself should take quite a bit longer right?
I don't have a lot of experience on the matter so I'm mostly trying to satisfy my curiosity. The people at work who deal with this stuff aren't that friendly. D:

Last time I've seen such a failure it was in 1945 in Berlin -.-

New update from the website:
"We are working to transition to our new server schema to support the overwhelming interest in this bundle. We expect to relaunch sometime in the next 24-48 hours. We will update everyone via Twitter. We're sorry for the inconvenience!"

hey man, you must have been one of the very first ones to buy this. when I was in, the current $ counter was very much higher. anyway the page started crawling just after that, so it's the last image i got of be mine until now... grrrr, hope i can get it later on... meanwhile i think i'll make some time getting Killing Floor on hard sale :)

yep, mashed F5 with all ten fingers.
kidding.
i use about four tabs (two browsers if I feel like it -- didn't bother this time), and always let the refresh time out. from my experience, there's really very little point in mashing F5. at the time my purchase completed, I would get an actual page load about one-in-ten to one-in-fifteen tries.
the $ counter was up just past $1k the last I saw of it.

Actually, you know what? Im putting this in writing. I intended to pay $5 for the bundle. Every day past the release date that I have to wait for them to get their act together = -$1
No sympathy for this fiasco. You can't promise a customer something, then deny service for this long without repercussions. This is my small little stand. They still deserve to get some money for the great games, but service to the customer base is important too. At least some freaking updates on wtf is happening would be nice. A vauge "we'll be back tomorrow" then "we'll be back in 1-2 days" both times because of server overload does not cut it.

I bought it this morning 2 hours before it was supposed to unlock. A seconds later, I tried to buy another one for my brother and I got the "2h remaining" screen. Really weird

After trying to load it for a few minutes, I got this. Looks like another delay. :/

And they've crashed Twitter as well, I must have been one of the first to "see" that message because when the page refreshed and I got that I loaded up their twitter page after googling it and then logged into twitter and by that time twitter was lagged on their page and within a few minutes was just bogged and couldn't even log out or refresh my own page. That was a good 2hrs ago, Though it seems while writing this that the main twitter seems to have become un lagged to a degree.

I heard wasteland angel is terrible. I have the ball and sideways and xotic are only midly (very) interesting. I might have to pass on this. I won't be a dick and pay a penny just to get the games added to my library like I know many will. (They should all die)

Never heard of them but it seems legit so far. This is gonna be an amazing bundle. Sideways New York kicks so much ass.
Pay what you want, 1 Dollar minimum. All 5 w/ steam keys, 3 of the 5 games will also come with a direct download the other 2 will be steam key only, don't know which.
It also says incentives. I wonder what those incentives will be.
