Well, it's not unusual that patches released on the Steam platform take longer to appear on GOG - or don't appear at all.
Normally for a reason (according to my experience). One point is that the Steam client manages the updates directly, which gives Steam more control over the update process, and they can perform it at their own convenience. While GOG provides patch files which the GOG users download and apply. Both methods have their pro's and con's, but one consequence is that Steam updates a lot more frequently than GOG - not because they are more customer-friendly, but because they do less QA, and have to fix bugs introduced with patches, while the latter very rarely happens at GOG, who test patches more thoroughly before they release them. This takes more time, especially when they find bugs which have to be fixed by the developers. You could say that Steam outsources patch testing to the users to a certain degree. Some like it, others don't.

It has also happened that the developers announce a second patch at about the same time that a first patch is being rolled out. In this case, GOG may decide to skip the rollout of the first patch completely, and wait for the second patch. Whether or not this is the case here, I don't know, but the developers have announced a second patch already (see the Spyware thread), without stating a timeframe.
Moreover, there have been a few problem reported with the Steam patch, whose severeness I can't judge.

The patch hasn't solved my issues with the mouse/keyboard either, hopefully support can solve the problem. If not it looks to be the first game on GOG for which I ask for a refund.

I do not believe the patch has been implemented on GoG yet. I still have the same version of the game I purchased on release. Also no notifications in my library that a patch is avaialble nor anything listed in the Galaxy change log for Imperium Galactica II. It should get here eventualy.

According to Galaxy the version I've installed is 1.0.1 and 1.08 is available as backup. This suggests that an update has been done somewhere.

Yep I saw that..I actualy tried running the 1.08 but the game stayed the same so I chalked that up to being the installer version and not the game version.

I remember not so fondly that it took ages till satelite reign got a patch.
However the difference to satellite reign is that it was completly playable .... unlike IG2 scrolling left and right is mandatory for me....

Be nice if GoG would chime in on an ETA on the patch.

I opened a support ticket, let's see how it goes.

Did the same.
Second game that has slow or no support.
First was the WAR WIND series there i could not save after ca. 30 minutes. Nothing was patched until now.

Patience...

Had a reply from my support request.

"We're waiting for an updated version of the game, it should address some of the issues you are encountering."

I'll probably give it to the end of the week and then request a refund, might pick it back up at some future date when the issues are fixed.

Had the same answer from support. Looks like it's not GOG's fault.

I think GoG is waiting for the next patch which is more complete than the initial patch. I read on the STEAM forums there is another one in the works that may also adress multiplayer.

Any idea when this patch is suppose to drop? Forums been kind of silent.

This is not funny...
