Ok guys I just signed up for Gamefly again after not having them for almost 4 years. I signed up with them right after they started several years ago but my mailman started stealing the game so I had no choice but to cancel. I am now at a different address and zipcode and my shipping center is Pittsburgh and I live in Eastern North Carolina and according to the USPS site shipping from there to here should be no more that 2 days. My first game "Max Payne 3" was shipped on Saturday 6/23 so I should have had my game Tuesday the 26th and still no game.

I was wondering if anyone else has had these kind of problems or not. Support seems to not give a damn since they already got there money out of me.

Am I over reacting or should I just sit until tomorrow before doing anything about it?

^ Don't have it, but I would see if you can talk to the mail carrier, and/or call 1-800-ASK-USPS and explain your situation and see what they recommend.

Going to give them a call if it is not here tomorrow. I do live in a apartment complex and I am always getting other people's mail so I would not be surprised if the dumbass did it to me. Is it really that hard to match a number on a letter to a number on a box?

Actually, there shipping has gotten much better for me over the years.

Latest game, I got the email saying Spec Ops The Line shipped on Monday, was around 10:30 AM, and it was here for me today, Wednesday. Used to take upwards of 4-5 days. So yeah, I think something is up for sure. Sorry to hear it, as I have always said what a great service I feel it is.

Will see if the 2 days shipping keeps up as well, I have Lollypop Chainsaw on the way, was shipped on Tuesday.

Well I have read if it is a high demand game they might ship it from another location so that's all I am hoping it is. I will let you guys know if it comes in Thursday.

Yeah, those should be the 4-5 days max, especially the California plant, so it should arrive today or tomorrow. I am surprised to hear you were able to get Max Payne 3 actually.

Enjoy, I loved it. My GOTY so far.

I live pretty far away from the closest GameFly center, so it usually takes a good week and a half for me to get a new game. If I ship the game on Monday, I know I won't have a new game until Saturday at the earliest, but it's usually sometime the week after. Netflix (back when I was getting discs), on the other hand, I'd get them in 2 days since they have a distro center here. They get it the day after I mail it, and I get it the next day.

Wel I finally got my game on Thursday and it was Max Payne 3, blew through the first disk that night and have not had time to play it since lol. I am really thinking about hitting the keep it button for $42 but GameStop just lowered the new price to $49. So I might just do that instead lol.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.

      26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

      By WrongHead™ · Posted

      It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
