This could be arranged.

I'm up for that



Adrien (Tichau) won a 6 hour impossible game yesterday, so he's ready for anything!

What would be your weapon of choice ?

Super street fighter 4 ?

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2013 ?

Fifa 2012 ?

My little poney : the combat game ?

Go ?

Chi-Fou-mi ?

Just a quick question : is there any kind of summary at the end of a game ? We all love those fancy charts after a great battle you know

Yeah there's a nice summary with rankings and stats for math lovers!

We're still working on its look though as today it's effective but not sexy enough

Speaking for the physics lovers:

If you're gonna include things like "destroyed %d shipmass", please use a) SI units and b) the common "value [unit]"-style with a constant blank space between value and unit. Also good old standard prefixes for the order of magnitude would be appreciated. So e.g. kilo(k)=10^3, Mega(M)=10^6, Giga(G)=10^9, Tera(T)=10^12 and Peta(P)=10^15. I sincerely hope I'm preaching to the choir, here.

That's the beauty of atheism for people like me: There is no hell. :P

Yes there is!

You are bound to a chair.... you have headphones on and on permanent replay... Dieter Bohlen's greatest hits!

LOL ... I can already see in my mind how you get ready at the office with the video-camera with comments lined up much like this one: "Dance puppets, dance; the public demands it" or "Here's 5€ now dance for me!"

That's why I stuck to the nicer sounding and harder to understand version, in the vain hope, it helps. XD

Whether it helps has lots to do with how the girls look like

3.rd option maybe? Dont get 25% off and just be a realy cool dud?

For every X copies sold at the third option a dev-team-member could do a happy dance.

Or just make a ladder.



10 - Skamaks makes a happy dance

100 - Steph makes a happy dance

1000 - Slowhands makes a happy dance

etc..

Classic disclaimers.



So when will the game be up for sale. And what will the price be? Because i'm going to buy it

I post here what the devs said in the news topic :

- Admiral Edition: 29,90€, with 25% off (time limited until May 31st)



o You will have instant access to the current version of the game (Alpha), and all upcoming versions including the final version of the game. The Alpha is only playable on PC and in English, but the final version will also include a Mac version and at least French and German languages.

o 500 G2G points to add to the value of your votes for the game art and design on our website.(available at the release of the game, sooner if possible)

o An “Endless Space” award for your forum profile. (available at the release of the game, sooner if possible)

o Official Digital Soundtrack (available at the release of the game)



- “Support the Game Dev” Emperor Special Edition: 34,90€, with 25% off.(time limited until May 31st)



o All the content included in the Admiral Edition mentioned above.

o United Empire “Emperor’s Guard Extra Skin” pack: you, the community, will vote for the look of the United Empire “Emperor’s Guard Extra Skin” pack through a special G2G vote.







o A unique “Endless” Hero: a unique and mysterious hero, direct descendant of the Endless civilization. You will vote for the look of the hero through a special G2G vote







o 500 G2G points, in addition to the 500 G2G points from the Admiral Edition for a total of 1000 G2G points.

o “Dev Team” Forum Award on your forum profile.(available at the release of the game, sooner if possible)



o To be confirmed: Your Steam Profile Name in the Credits of the game. (We're checking with Valve if this is feasible)

o To be confirmed: Your Steam Profile Picture in our offices in Paris. (We're checking with Valve if this is feasible)

I will naturaly chose the Emperor Special Edition, to support this amazing indie studio



Also I have to admit that I expected the game to be cheaper, due to the "indie side" of the project. But I'm more than happy to note that ES is an ambitious game, with a price comparable to AAA games.

- Admiral Edition: 29,90€, with 25% off (time limited until May 31st) 37 euro full price

- “Support the Game Dev” Emperor Special Edition: 34,90€, with 25% off.(time limited until May 31st) 43 euro full price

o To be confirmed: Your Steam Profile Picture in our offices in Paris. (We're checking with Valve if this is feasible)

Haha.Quickly changes steam profile to

rofl...........

Ashbery76, you made my day ! XD

Oh damn im gonna abuse that one for sure.



A picture saying "Most Amplitude-ppl have worked at Ubisoft, EA etc and didn't like it so they just went awesome instead" perhaps or "All these nerds cant be wrong, amplitude is awesome"

I think I'll go for the Emperor special edition for this. Sure it's a (very small financial) risk but the Dev team are taking a really positive approach to the community.



I've been waiting a long time for this game. I feel like the Emperor per-order is an investment for the future. I'm very sure I'll want to play Endless Space 2 down the line



Any bets on which day next week we can get stuck in?



Having said that my steam profile is different from my current profile... Can you change the name of your Steam profile?

What happens if too many people get this image for their profiles? New Hobo race invading Amplitude!

All that will achieve is a special place for the pictures in a remote room of the basement. Probably an old WW2-hideout for the resistance or the good old catacombs.

Just to be clear the full price is 29.90€ for the admiral edition and 34.90€for the Emperor edition



To that price we offer a -25% rebate until May 31st (so respectively 22.49 € and 26.24€)

Oh ! I thought the full price was 50€ for the Emperor Edition :O

26.24€ is damn cheap !

Cheap indeed, I also thought the prices with the rebate were 29,90€ and 34.90€. The prices SpaceTroll mentioned (22.49 € and 26.24€) should be added to the News thread to make it more clear.

What do those prices translate into US dollars?

26.24 EUR = 34.5929 USD

34.90 EUR = 46.0109 USD



Although i suggest trying this next time.



edit: lol i completely forgot about the rebate lol my bad :P. Thankfully Raptor is around to save the day as usual.

30 USD for the Admiral edition and 35 USD for the Emperor edition, that's with the rebate.

Very happy to read that the 25% off had not yet been applied to the prices in the original post. That is going to make it much easier to support the emperor edition.

*Living in the United States, I understand the value of USD far better than EUR*



...wait, the difference between the Admiral version and emperor version is five dollars? Heck, I've always wanted to be an emperor.

5€/5$, it is the price to become an Emperor nowadays. Yep.
