Links & the Like

• Elite Dangerous has a patch for the tritium mining issue “”in development”. In the meantime they topped off the fuel bunkers of every carrier as “compensation and a gesture of goodwill”. This has made everyone happy and everything is all gumdrops and lemon meringue pie and happy fluffy little clouds. [Official Forums]
• It’s week 8 of The Brian Chambers “He Told Us He Was Going For A Sandwich” Vigil. We know you’re out there Brian Chambers, and wherever you are, we’re rooting for you… and also we’re rooting for the update you were ready to give us two months ago. “Early Access” Version 3.10 is still in the PTU, before a rollout to the “Early Access” Live Server. And Chivalrybean wanted us to mention: THERE HAS BEEN NEWS ABOUT TRACTOR BEAMS… but they are not quite ready for Early Access… and won’t be until December 2020… at the earliest. access [Reddit] [RSI Spectrum]
• Tony has gone through the Little Orbit vs. Descendant Studios case and has the scoop and he’s gonna tell ya all the things ya need to know and I suggest ya let that one marinate.
• Also I played No Man’s Sky last week … A LOT. It’s way better than it was at launch and Geoff should play it as a Fallout-type game.

Community Questions

• Is Beta for Star Citizen really “Early Access 4.0”?
• How far did you get on your free tank of Frontier Tritium Gas?
