ENDLESS FREE WEEKEND: PLAY & UNLOCK FREE STUFF FOR ES2

In terms of English/Russian communication I completely get it, SilentSunrise. I've also experienced some misunderstanding on that part and offended some people with words I thought can carry no offensive meaning. Mb it has smth to do with the fact we use a lot of imperative mood or absorb a lot of trashtalk from Russian segment of the Internet, which is quite offensive.

As long as the displayed total number of purchases is removed, I guess we hit the goal of 500 purchases, to get that offered stuff this case, right?

;P

May I ask a favour to Endless games players?

My trouble is that I'll be working today, and won't be able to play until Sunday, but I absolutely need those Buccaneers for my Lumeris, and actually the free-weekend web stats that only the 34% of total hours needed to unlock all the content had been played.

Can you please play today in my place??

Start single player game, leave for work. Come back and enjoy you did anything for to unlock Buccaneers for Lumeris faction.

Now that we unlocked the Mavros skin will the minor Mavros use these ships?

No, sophons

Yes I know, but my question was if they get these ships too, because it would only be logical and cool.

is there a houres/progression  bar somewhere to see how we evolve ???!!!

or, for example, that the new faction has few quests (only 4). I would not mind to pay developers for a pack of quests for Hissho.

 Hey, I don't want to get into the fight or anything but this is just wrong. The main quest only have 4 Quests, yes, some split in 2 parts but every faction is like this. However, they do seem to have several individual faction based Quests, including a very interesting one involving the planet where they were modified by the endless.

 They seem to have the same amount of effort put on them in that regard than every other faction. Maybe you just got unlucky on your playtrough. 

 Regarding your other statements, I still disagree with everything but I don't see the point of making a fight out of it. You have the right to express an opinion, plus, riot games utterly sucks imo.

What? No Sheredyn skin?
What a shame. :(

Кстати, было бы здорово получить DLC с разными моделями Behemoths для разных фракций. Насколько я понимаю Бегемотов - технологию вечного. И их технология является самой популярной на данный момент Водяни. Было бы здорово видеть Бегемотов, подобных ARK.

Perhaps, but at the start of the game in the brief content of the quest in Russian it is said that "It is necessary to rewrite your slavish and gladiatorial past in a glorious future."
That when playing for them, I thought that the quests will be on the level for example with the UE.
After the passage of the final quest, I did not have a feeling that I had rewritten the past or changed the future.
Rather just punished recalcitrant. This is strange.
I wanted a little more intrigues and conspiracies. But I think that in the next expansion will be enough.

From the looks of it, this free weekend seems to be giving skins to the other six base game factions who did not have them, which is why the United Empire does not have it as they already have a skin (The Mezari skin).

 Yeah, that we can agree with. It showed the focus on tradition pretty well but didn't rework much of their society, I believe the main difference here is that in the UE one we play as the Emperor himself, while in the Hisho we are kinda of an Historian-Warrior? At least that was my take on it, will need to replay it, but yes, it's less impactful, altho the ending was sad and unexpected.
 By sheer numbers, tho, it's the same I believe. The UE is also 4 quests, just with lots of parts and options. At least this one doesn't have the plot hole of both Hadri Lenko and Lena Zelevas being the possible conspirator which leads to a weird discussion about which one is canon (that and the fact that no matter your choice, the 3 elected emperors-to-be all have exactly the same lines when they speak, which to me, sounds weird.)

3 elected emperors

It would be very cool, for example, to see a choice between respecting traditions and a future free from old order.
This changed the people of the faction and its characteristics, as it was done in the UE.
And Keii could change. For example, following traditions could increase the military power of the faction, and the transition to the future could give more reinforcement for the systems or a lesser dependence of the Colonization on Keii.

Aparently we`ll be able to reach the 1 million Hour mark without any problems, considering it's sunday with 68% already! Good job everyone.

Amplitude gave us games to try for free (awesome games btw), and offered us a prize for just playing them - F*cking take my money and also money of my friends and family!!

75 % now, goodie :)

 Absolutely Agree with that. And Hey @Amplitude, I know it's probably asking too much, but hey, since we are probably gonna finish the goal with plenty of time to spare, how about an extra skin? =D Sheredryn for the UE or Sisters for the Vaulters?
 If not, no worries, this is absolutely awesome as is already. Thanks guys!

95% unlocked. By the way it's going, we'll have them unlocked before morning EST.

 Oh boy, 95% and we still have close to 2 days to go! I know we have absolutely no right to ask for more free stuff, but I'm assuming that's great news to everyone, I'll be a bit of a beggar, and if the more skins idea is not possible (which is absolutely understandable due to the work artists will be doing on the new ones already) how about we get the new Harmony Hero from the Vynil Stretch Goals?
 I mean, as far as I know, the pre-sale numbers didn't reach the goal for it (which is a shame) and I'm sure that just like me there's a lot of people that wanted to get the soundtrack but can't, in my case that's because of the price conversion considering where I live and the lack of an international credit card, but absolutely everyone would like to get that Harmony Hero and since his extension is already in the game, I think it's already made and you guys plan to do something with him even though the goal was not reached, why not giving it to the whole community?
 A lot of people will ask for it in some way besides the Vinyl anyway.
 Either way, it's just an idea, we are already getting a lot of free stuff and I don't want to sound greedy or ungrateful.
