Question about gog

Question about gog

If i purchase Ashes of the Singularity through gog (25%off) and it is DRM free how exactly do i get the updates that would normally update through steam?

Also, do all players whether on steam or another platform play in the same online community? I'm not exactly sure how that works either.

Or if anyone has a reason NOT to buy on gog mention it below please!

EDIT: If it is possible can i get an official response from a DEV on these two very important questions.

Quoting Ekko_Tek, reply 25

My perception is that people who buy games on GOG are not especially interested in MP anyway, so no big loss as far as interconnectivity? Am I wrong? Are GOG purchasers going to be interested in ranked MP automatch for Ashes?

That's because until Galaxy MP wasn't an option on GOG since 9 times out of 10 it required 3rd party clients = DRM.

 

MP community will only grow from here on out on GOG.

Very bad news to hear that kind of MP problem. But with multiplayer decissions on stardock games, like Demigod,  you kill your own god games. But i have not to pay the bills and i'm not frogboy or someone else that could do strategic decissons. From players view, it's a no go to splitt mp comunity by sale platform. If you split console gamers from pc gamers, no problem at all. No chance to gift someone or buy itself the game, because you have to check up first from witch sale platform all others have buyed there copy! Com  on!

But okay, take a look at the other side of the medal, when did you play a RTS game only singelplayer, because of singelplayer? I did it last may 2011 (Shogun 2).

I know some guys that playing singeplayer rts games but none of them have a system with ashes minimum requirements, but i know a lot of guys with maschines that can run ashes and there interested in this game only in multiplayer, a few interested in both.  This could be a big problem.

 

Hope you guys find a way to fix this problem.
