Manor Lords has just released access to a new Beta version allowing for play on new maps and a host of game changes.

When and how will GOG users get access to this?

Changelog Version 0.8.004 -> 0.8.017
Major Changes:

Worker Restrictions for Stalls: Only the storage building workers can set up marketplace Stalls now. There was too much confusion from who owns what and works where, and it was very difficult for players to understand, for instance, that a gravedigger can have a food stall (selling home vegetable garden produce).
Inventory Source Restriction: Only storage buildings supply the stall inventories and peddle.
Goods Supply Cap: The number of goods a marketplace can supply is capped by the number of stalls (and therefore by the number of assigned storage building families). It can now be previewed in the market panel as "granary supply capacity" and "storehouse supply capacity." As the bars fill up, the supply capacity is reaching a limit, and you need to assign more storage worker families.
Stall Mergers: Fuel Stalls and Fabric Stalls were merged into a General Goods Stall.
Connection Arcs Added: Arcs connecting storage buildings to marketplaces are now being drawn after selecting either one.
Marketplace UI Update: Marketplace supply UI will now show the number of assigned families in the storage buildings.
Instant Stall Assignments: Storage building families will now try to build or take over a stall as soon as they are assigned.
Reduced Stall Storage Space: Decreased max stall storage space to still have the motivation for a healthy number of stalls on the market.
Abandoned Stalls Exclusion: Abandoned stalls no longer account for marketplace availability.
Market Availability Distribution: Tuned the market availability distribution so that houses reserve only as much variety as they need for the upgrade.
Regional Data Update: All data in the Marketplace supply panel is now regional, including "Free stall locations."
Disable Stalls Behavior: After you disable "allow market stalls" on a storage building, workers abandon their stalls since they stop contributing to Market Supply.
Granary Direct Consumption: Instead of eating from the marketplace, villagers sometimes eat straight from the granaries to reduce the marketplace supply fluctuations.
Instant Market Supply Calculation: In order for all values to always match, market supply is calculated instantly every time stall storage changes (supply includes what workers are already transporting).
Extra Tooltip Info: Added extra marketplace tooltip info about available and required food variety in the region.
Marketplace Storage Filters: You can now use storage filters on the marketplace to ensure some goods won't be distributed.
Refueling from Storehouses: To reduce supply fluctuations, plots and workplaces will refuel directly from storehouses if possible.
Instant Stall Setup: When you allow market stall setup, workers will try to build or take over stalls instantly.
Real-Time Overlay Updates: When hovering over any supply category, the overlay colors of burgage plots should now update in real time.
Abandoned Stall Goods Return: Storage workers will bring goods back to storage from abandoned stalls.
Category Reorganization: Moved the Marketplace & Market Carts to the Logistics category.
Ale and Water Distribution Changes:
New Distribution Logic: Ale from taverns and water from wells are now distributed in a similar way as marketplace items.
Reason 1: It's no longer enough to just have 1 Ale sitting in the tavern to upgrade the whole town.
Reason 2: I wanted to add Well and Tavern upgrades.


New Features

New Playable Maps: Map selection now includes two new playable maps: High Peaks and Winding River.
Overstock Setting Added: Added an "Overstock" setting to the building tab for distributing buildings (Tavern, Marketplace). This setting allows the user to control how many extra goods are placed in the stalls or the tavern that exceed what's currently needed.
Bridge Building System: A bridge-building system has been added, utilizing the Road Tool.
Stone Well Upgrade: Added a stone well upgrade that provides more water supply (30 plots). The wooden well water supply was reduced to 15 plots.
Level 2 Tavern Upgrade: Added a Level 2 Tavern upgrade and a new visual for the Level 1 Tavern.


Gameplay & Balance

Taxation Approval Change: Approval for taxation will now happen even if there is no money to tax—seems more intuitive for the players.
Charcoal Burning Adjustment: Charcoal burners now try to burn charcoal in stacks of up to 10 firewood at once (per assigned family).
Woodcutter Speed Reduced: Slowed down woodcutter's debranching by 30%.
Windmill Storage Limitation: Windmills should no longer mill flour if there is no pantry space left.
Flour and Bread Changes: 1 grain makes 1 flour, and bread output doubles (to reduce clogging at the windmill).
[Experimental] Building Costs Rebalance: Balance pass on building and upgrade costs, reducing the amount of Logs and utilizing more Planks, Stone, and Tools to better reflect the look of the building and encourage more diverse resource use.
Tavern Employment Reduction: Tavern (Lvl1) now employs 1 family (reduced from 3).
Tavern Spoilage Reduction Boosts: Tavern (Lvl1) now provides a small boost to spoilage reduction over regular buildings.
Tavern Pantry Capacity Reduced: Tavern (Lvl2) pantry capacity reduced from 100 to 50.
Tavern Spoilage Boost at Lvl2: Tavern (Lvl2) now provides a small boost to spoilage reduction over Lvl1.
Iron Deposit Size Increased: Iron Normal Deposits minimum size increased by 60%; maximum size increased by 28%.

Yeah! I wanted to play during the Christmas period and nothing came, I'm really angry about that!
It's outrageous that we were treated as second-class users.

Yep, couldn't agree more.

I feel like GOG Galaxy has been on a downhill trajectory for the last 2 years anyway but I never thought purchasing games on the platform would actually represent a disadvantage.

This could possibly be the last GOG game I buy.

A lot of Steam guys make fun of GOG customers and say “buy the game again”. Reddit is extremely toxic btw.
KENadian4, thx. For sure 100% the last early access i buy at GOG.

I am a laboratory manager and work a lot, so I have very little time. I enjoy Manor Lords and I wanted to spend a few hours building bridges etc. and testing the new map.

I'm very annoyed with GOG and the publisher HH. Thanks for nothing!

Again, you pretty much mirror my sentiment.

I'm annoyed at the Developer/Publisher but disappointed in GOG.

The dev can do what they want because it's their game but the fact that GOG has said nothing about this really speaks volume about how much they support the Community.

I get so much e-mail spam from GOG yet nothing on this, pretty sad.

I'll continue to purchase CDPR titles on GOG but that's the end of "other" purchases on this platform.

Now the Patch is Online but bin2 on both are not Downloadable, last time i buy by GOG a game for sure.
