Is there any timetable for publishing the Linux version here on GOG?

Will it support Multiplayer ("Multiplayer Notice: GOG Galaxy is required to play multiplayer. ")? As far as I know GOG Galaxy isn't available for Linux (yet?).

Thanks alot!

I'd like to second this question. I've been waiting for an definite answer to this before I buy.

Thirding the question. I'll only buy win/dos versions of good OLD games that don't (and never will) have a Linux version.

There's been a Linux version on Steam for three patches now. Please, GOG and devs, at least tell us what the delay is.

It seems there are problems with the Linux version, many users report it works on SteamOS only.
For Linux users I would recommend not buying Master of Orion at its current state!

So, the game is now on sale - and no answer yet...
Any chance to get this on linux here on GOG NOW?

Thank you!

My download screen says the following:

Moo1 Win/Mac/Lin
Moo2 Win/Mac/Lin
Moo3 Win
Moo4 Win/Mac

Moo4 as in "we can't count past three, so we don't even bother to number it".

Count me in the list of people waiting for the Linux version to buy it.

I also am waiting for the Linux version before purchase.

It's useless for me, due to missing Linux Version on GoG.

Everywhere else you get the Linux version but not here, give me my money back

Also, if game does not have at least LAN or direct IP connections it can be considered DRM in that regard and dependant of some form of services to play MP. Then MP part is not DRM free as was GOG policy once upon a time.

There are a pile of games with no direct connect feature that do not have multiplayer at all anymore as a consequence.

Ah again the problem with GOG and their weak DRM-free-policy. Thanks, that's no buy for me!

It'd be cool if we could setup a notifier when/if a Linux version becomes available. I'll buy other games and check back now and then I suppose.

I think the problem is the so-called "optional" client GOG Galaxy, because it is needed for multiplayer. And again the principle DRM-free is not fulfilled: A dongled multiplayer-mode! No buy at all from me if there is no alternative like LAN for example.

I swear - yesterday i saw "Windows - Mac - Linux" at title screen of Moo4 anouncement!

But lets face it - they just want to press everyone into their SteamLight DRM aka Galaxy....
