Seems like a lot to wait for until we remember we were talking about 3 million player accounts in Feb 2021. Works out at about 1,827 new accounts a day from Feb 1st to today... I know the free flys will be responsible for a glut of new accounts when they happen which may not all be backing...

Hi TEST, Just read this article and thought it was pretty nice - Hello Games, the makers of No Mans Sky, remastered their first game 'Joe Danger' for a dad who wrote to them about the effect the game becoming depreciated on iOS had on his autistic son...

Just stumbled upon the Loremakers Community Questions post on RSI which looks to have been uploaded today: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/18471-Loremakers-Community-Questions One thing in there which really jumped out to be was: I was certain Kaleeth was...

They are launching NFTs on digital asset sales: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-59568929 Not the first but definately the biggest so far. Beware the floodgates, they are about to be flung wide open.

Ship mounted tractor beams are on the way, and their implementation may, or may not, bring a change to combat. I watched a show in my youth called "Outlaw Star" which had the concept of Grappler Ships. Craft with robotic arms which could seize and attack a target with little the target could do...

They warn right at the beginning they say the F word a lot even for them, so if you are somewhere that isn't suitable for that wait until you are to watch or put on some headphones, yo. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxaHugHihh0

I've been talking about the whole looting thing over on Spectrum (I know), and it has occurred to me... ...If we can loot players wholesale, why are the shops not able to be stolen from? The more I have through about it, the more Shoplifting in SC makes sense - the food, drink and Wowblast...

...but we're over 20k! https://robertsspaceindustries.com/orgs/TEST For the GLORY of TEST!

... 3.15 heal mechanics are being exploited by some people in armistice zones to Overdose victims and leave them unconscious on the floor. Apparently it was funny for the first five minutes until it stopped people from claiming their craft and playing the game. The obvious response is it's the...

Friends, TESTies, Squardronmen(and women), lend me your votes! Just today a random spectrum user was trying to run a poll on there using Google Docs, which is stupid. The old RSI forum had a polls feature, and so does TEST, Spectrum only has crappy upvoting which doesn't prop up a discussion...

To over the Crusader main landing zone. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gYBBb_FsCE Somewhere about 15.55 This is quite big news, there has been speculation over the stations fate for a long time, now it's the official orbital post for Orison :)

With Death Of A Spaceman part of the intended mechanics of the game in development and on the way with Medic mechanics coming in (we are not immortal and can't just respawn over and over, there will be a limit at which point we die and pass our crap off to next-of-kin) it's handy to see what...

I'd been waiting for the Taurus to be launched for years and on my first run out in 3.14 in it I exploded and had the claim bug so until that's fixed I can't get my hands on it again. Of course, I hadn't taken a look around the thing before blowing up. Anyone got one? What's your impression of it?
