I own base game Ion Fury, want to buy the overdue expansion "Aftershock" released 5 days ago (02/10) on Steam, yet no sign of it here. Why?! It makes no sense, Plenty of other new games were released simultaneously on GOG, Steam, Playstation and Xbox and Nintendo, yet somehow "Ion Fury: Aftershock" is missing here. Is it a pointless fear of Piracy?! I expect not.
Anyway, NO release on GOG, NO BUY, be warned!

so i went on the discord server and saw there just gonna release on GOG when they fix all the bugs people found on the steam release. so the date has be changed to later this week to "when its done"

heres a screenshot i took in the aftershock channel

yea.

Pretty F***ing scummy of them

I found amazing when bullshit developers say crap like "GOG users prefer to use GOG because they want to get away from Steam and not to use like an alternative store". I mean, how can you be that much of a fucking asshole to say shit like that? Motherfucker, the main reason i use GOG is because it's a fucking alternative, fucking moron. Fuck this game and fuck this developer team.

I think, he just misspelled, what he wanted to say. He most likely meant, that people use GOG, because they want to get away from Steam as a game launcher and do not like to use another game launcher (as a Galaxy in this case). Which I completely agree with him, I never even installed Galaxy, yet I have several hundred games on GOG in my library.

Well since long time I liked GOG because I have here both options. Galaxy or without Galaxy. But recently GOG do not show any care of customers. They at least should make a statement why there is still no DLC on GOG as all trailers showed that premiere is 02/10 ! I was wondering first day of "premiere" that something is wrong with my Galaxy settings...

That terminx dev is a total cunt.

Eat a Snickers.

Don't trust 3DRealms today because are not the same people after Fred take the lead only and repeat only bullshit happen on what they say ... people that worked on old 3d realms don't trust those new ones because ? Lies.
Simple response is money first on steam and then then ... and still people defend them . What a bullshit society we live today but let's continue is all ok.

Italian here

Like i said in another post here, "Guinea Pigs" for bug fixes. Noooo, they couldn't have delayed the game to fix possible bugs from both versions, noo...They threw the bait on STEAM but not wanting the extra profits from GOG

"Oh well..."

what i believe he meant was they want to release a more polished version on gog because the users over there most likely dont want to use another game launcher, so the just get the straight download instead of galaxy so there missing out on automatic updates. i do understand what he means but it still just sucks. i would buy it on steam at this point but i would have to buy the base game again and its not even on sale. i would be pay double for an expansion to a game i already own. maybe i can find a steam key for cheap if i look, because im certain its gonna take a while before they patch the steam version

So, just have GOG slap an "Early Access" tag on it. It doesn't seem to have been a problem with Project Zomboid, or any of the other 120 games that have that label.

I think its worse to hold the game on one platform and not the other, they should have held it off of both if it wasn't ready. The games only about a 100 mb, windows updates are around that size, so it's not that big of a deal to have to redownload it again later even if your not using galaxy.

I think, it is indeed the fear of piracy, to maximize the profits under the umbrella of STEAM DRM.

As soon as the targeted profits wil be harvested we will get the addon as pesky second grade customers we are.

I think it is not about piracy but about weak management. Two weeks have passed and nobody decide it would be professional to inform community what is going on with release date for gog and consoles releases. Nor on Gog side nor on 3D Realms side. Something like "sorry after steam release we found too many bugs and we want yo fix them for You" would be enough to calm down our worries and do not make us feel like second class customers.
If 3D Realms was going to maximise their income they should release game day one according to trailer for both steam, gog and consoles. Just when interest in game was biggest. They have their event and that was perfect date to have freevadvert in media. I am sure that after those two weeks there is already pirate release for such small game. Soon other games will be released and people will move their focus to other titles.

How to fix this mess?
Voidpoint:
- fix it and realese it,
- take a break and think what will You do next,
- hire more people who knows how to code / work with build engine,
- write better contract with 3D Realms / whoever is You boss, earn more money and make it Your full time job
3D Realms:
- You have many great projects going on under Your wings but You lack management over them,
- if there is project that is not update / release on time talk with Your developer
- maybe their lack management over their project, need more staff or money
- communicate with Your fans what is going on
GoG:
- hire more people to work on quality of Your shop, on communication with customers
- I am sure You have some lawyers/ legal staff, hire more people, look for old games that is still not on Your shop
- use real world events to promote new games
If it is ubi soft sales put games on Your shop like Far Cry 3 or Blood Dragon
If it is 3d realms deep event get their games on Your shop
If it is id Software/Bethesda event get Rage, Rage2 ,Wolfenstein 2009, Prey on You shop

Etc, etc, etc

You catch my drift
