PAYPAL SUPPORT FOR SHENMUE 3! PRE-ORDER FOR PS4/PC!

[Hazuki00]

It's possible. Then again, based on Cedric's recent Tweet (and I know I said we should take what he says now with a pinch of salt), it might be something else they close the year out on with new screens/vids.


They should just bite the bullet and get it back up ASAP. They're losing money if they don't.

Cedric said we should not see a big update before december so it makes sense but, a trailer?
I don't think the kickstarter page it's the best place for a re-reveal, that's why so much dissapoint with no psx presence

PayPal support is closed? Whats happening...?

Their SSL certificate, used for website encryption, expired on Friday.

PayPal's API for payments needs to be able to communicate with their end over SSL in order to make a callback to notify their site when a payment is made. PayPal's systems will refuse to talk to a website with an expired or invalid SSL certificate. It will remain broken until they renew their SSL certificate.

Disclaimer: I don't know how they integrate with PayPal, but the certificate being expired is true and it's likely that this was just a timing coincidence. I'm guessing their admin who would do that probably won't take care of it until Monday.

Well spotted. This has bit me in the arse a few times in the past and his easy overlooked (I work in IT) so I agree its just a timing thing.

Phew!!! Thank you Sappharad!
I was really worried for my occasional graphs

Thanks to Sappharad for the context. The Slacker Backer site going down now looks mundane rather than intriguing, hahaha.

I didn't mean specifically a trailer, just some footage.

I've just checked it and clicking in order just redirects you to the front page.

I've just tried again and it's still working for me. Don't know if being on mobile has anything to do with it.

Works for me now, still set to 2nd December, might just need to check your cache settings if you're having issues viewing it.

It's been updating for a few days, but I'll consider this a fresh start and won't be doing the math on how much more money/backers have been gained.

Getting hammered by visitors, is why.

So far, things are looking good. The backers and the money being pledged are increasing pretty well.
