Can you play coop with Steam users?
Or are you stuck with playing only with GOG Galaxy users?

I'd like to know that too. I hope so...
Got a response from them on Twitter. Link: https://twitter.com/WeBeHarebrained/status/747882910720524288

Answer is "no, unfortunately, the two systems can't 'talk' to each other."

Still, I'm most likely buying it from GOG anyway.

I'm guessing that there's no direct IP connection as well.

Apparently not, at least not for now.

Add friends and play with them.
Did something change with the GOG version of this game? It does not list co-op/multiplayer on the game's store page?

I sure hope this was just an oversight?

Yeah, there's really no MP atm on gog.

I asked a refund because I'm not interested without MP.

That's too bad. I was looking forward to playing this. Can anyone with GOG shine some light on why this changed?

Most likely because it's galaxy dependent. I don't like how they advertised the multiplayer function ultil release and then remove it.

Indeed.
It's a low blow. Now my friend and I are not interested at all in the game. We just want our money back.
Why not to make the possibility to host our own server ?? Just opening a port, using a host button in game and TADAAAA ! Just like other games before becoming Steamwork/GOG Galaxy only ?? What the fuck is happening ? Even DRM free games are losing their capability to create servers ?

Probably because MP mean to be part of DRM system.
Or HBS just lazy to do that, or it was steam exclusive, who knows?


EDT: pooled them email, will wait for answer.

The only good thing i'm hearing on the steam forum is that the gog version is more stable than steam counterpart. But back on topic, yeah, this ensure an always working multiplayer, not depending on some stupid client, but most importantly, this would make steam&GOG multiplayer a possibility.
