Download refuses to finish - Aj3067 - 06-24-2011
I just purchased Amnesia today, and have gone to the "shelf" as it is called to download it, and when i click on the link "Download Win" the dialog box came up with the open/save/cancel, i press Open, and nothing happens. I retry, attempting to save the .zip folder to my desktop, and it works successfully for the slightly rediculous download time of 2 hours... UNTIL, it reaches roughly 60%. Then, it stops downloading and another dialog box appears, stating that Amnesia couldn't finish downloading--the server was reset. Then, i tried again, this time waiting three hours and forty minutes. It works, yet again, until 2 minutes and 56 seconds are remaining. At this point, the error occurs again.
I've scoured the forums for a solution, and have only seen 1 thread, where the only support offered is something along the lines of "You must not have bought it". I can assure you that this isn't the problem, as i just bought it from the FG store.
I'd be really happy if someone could help me with this problem, as i've been waiting quite a while to be able to play this game.
EDIT; After attempting to download again, it works for ~an hour, then the same error occurs.
I don't know what to do at this point.

This is pretty strange. What browser are you using? Do you have anybody else on your Internet connection?

This might be a case of a bad internet connection.
You could try to use a download manager like FDM.

It might fix the problem.
