Croyzers: has anyone tried verifying the game in galaxy?

I just did and got a 14mb download.

I haven't played the game since launch, but I think the modern controls are working a bit better now.

However, it could just be a placebo on my part, and I've just got a missing file.
That 14mb download is a tiny update the GOG version received on release, because the save function was not working. It has nothing to do with PATCH #1, which many users in other platforms reported to have almost 1GB of data.

Apologies, you are all correct. It isn't the update I was hoping for.

I verified again, and yep, got the 14mb download. The action icon is still an exclamation mark. The jump still has a delay.

Sorry for getting people's hopes up :(

Still no new update... still at 1.01. Come on GOG :(

What the hell is going on??? Why??? The update was released like 2 days ago .... At least if there was a statement from Aspyr or GOG, but nothing!

GOG users are clearly second class citizens. What a disgrace!

QWEEDDYZ: Oh i forgot about that.So it was me get confused.

SteamDB have "Updated" string to show when in general some changes to App/Depot/Sub/etc was made. Not the actual game build update.
GOGDB use looking same string for abs. differ function. GOGDB did not scan APIs 24/7 instead it do it once per some hours delays.
And we all can force it to scan again if we continue to open game page there. Reduce DB update from few more hours to just 2 hrs. If we keep going there it will show us "UPDATED" each next 2 hours. 12 march, 13 march, 14 march and even each next 2 hour.

Current GOGDB lost few things and didnt bring few from temporar fork GOG-DB .info. Updates-changelog tab reduced. But there is new function - it will show up new Galaxy public build as "Build added".
Non-public builds can be seen on one of API links listed there on GOGDB.

What i want to say. There is not so many things to post in Changelog and GOGDB reduce even them to just most important. In that case "DB entry update" date string is no use for same function as SteamDB. It is normal it didnt show us real updates date.
But still maybe better if GOGDB admin remove/change it appearing to reduce confusion. SteamDB can confuse visitors but at least show some kinda half-hidden Steam Content Description Record real updates happened. GOGDB show nothing.
Its just "page last viewed" date and time.It show when it was updated for/when previous viewer force it to scan APIs.
Oh, my bad, I thought it was like SteamDB. So there's really no way to know if they're going to do anything about the GOG version.

Yep. we are pretty much left in the dark. It seems we can't know when the game will be patched, if it gets patched at all, that is.
I'm severely dissapointed. If this is a GOG issue, in which they can't possibly upload the patch any sooner, I understand the budgetary and staff limitations of GOG, but I do feel treated like a second class consumer. I paid the same but I get treated to a lesser service and product.
If this is another screwup by the publisher, just like the epic games version fiasco, well, I'm equally dissapointed.

Ironically, there are people out there who have downloaded the latest version via... dishonest means, and they are able to play a better version of the product than us, legit consumers.

If this kind of situation is common here, I'm severely pondering not opting for GOG when it comes down to new releases.
Historical oldies games purchases might (MIGHT) be OK with me, since, well, they have already run their original course nad they won't be updated anymore. But still...

I ended up refunding. Though it's disappointing I do appreciate GOG having a very generous refund policy. I'll stick to Steam for new releases going forward.

On the back of your post, I'm trying the same thing. Having never purchased a new game from GOG before I'm unfamiliar with how that works, and given the game launched exactly a month ago, I figured today might be my last chance to refund (if of course it does get processed). I'm just disappointed by the experience of every other platform having received the patch, and it's really put me off of buying new games here in the future.

I just looked at my order history and there was a link to ask for a refund under the game still, so I used that. It is unfortunate because I like GOG, and I'll still buy things here, but I don't want to risk being behind on major updates for newer games.

How long was it since you bought the game?
I actually preordered it and, considering it's been a month since the original release date, I don't know if I'm eligible for a refund or past the time limit.

I was going to give it another 24 hours before thinking of asking for a refund, but then I worked out that today is Day 30 after the games release date, and GOG state their return policy is for 30 days, so guess today was the last chance to try.
Posted March 14, 2024
Well, screw everything. I asked for a refund too. I'm getting the steam version instead.
There's too much uncertainty, we tried reaching out, not only via this forum, but also filing support request forms, other forums, the steam forums, twitter... for over two days to no avail.
If this isn't because of GOG, I kinda feel sorry for them, and I feel like I'm rewarding the publisher for it's lack of support, but I don't see this being fixed anytime soon.
When it comes down to Good Old Games, I'll stick to the old games.

I preordered it as well but the game released on the 14th of February, so depending on time zones I think today will be 29-30 days since it released. If you look at your Orders History tab like I did and find the game there may be a small link you can click to ask for a refund.
