Hi everyone. I am new to these forums (bought the game yesterday, played it today, a lot of fun 3 hours in), and I had a few questions about G2G. I'm going to feel really awful if someone posts a link to a FAQ or something that I missed. Essentially, I apologize if this is already out there and I couldn't find it.



Question 1: How often do the votes take place?



Question 2: Is there an estimated time of implementation? (For example, one week, next patch, within the next 3 patches, etc)



Question 3:How long will this game be supported in this way?



Question 4: Are many of the changes offered going to end up in the game eventually anyway? In the immediate future I would prefer prefer Exploration Bonuses, but I feel keyboard shortcuts are an eventual must for me for long term enjoyment, so I voted for the keyboard shortcuts.



Question 5: What does the symbol that looks like a crown and the symbol that looks like a check mark mean? Before I had the game or an account on these forums, I would see both of them on the Endless Space G2G page, and I couldn't figure out why I was seeing both graphics. (Again, this is before I had the opportunity to vote)



Thanks for any help! And PS, I prefer a thouroughly written tutorial-- don't care what the reviewers say.

1: At the moment every two weeks, from wednesday to wednesday GMT+1 in the evening.



2/3/4: Maybe you should read this: http://forums.amplitude-studios.com/content.php?183-FYI-News-from-the-update-plan-Add-on-Release-Notes

One comment though: Several things that had not been voted for at that time have already made it into the game.



5: The mark is what you have voted for, but since you don't have an account yet, it is autoset to the leader.

The crown symbolizes the leading choice.



You mean the written tutorial ingame? Additionally, you should check out the advice you can find in the forum. E.g. many people don't get at the beginning that the way to go is to lower the taxrate, to keep your people happy, for rapid expansion.



Also moved to the questions section.

Thanks very much!
