Links and the Like

Elite Dangerous

Elite Dangerous is stretching out the end of the Azimuth storyline like it’s the end of a Tolkien Trilogy. Another week of Thargoid attacks and Guardian deliveries before whatever happens, happens. And, it just so happens that Guard Frequency Audio Editor and razor wit Wotherspoon had a few observations about the storyline that drew some … interesting … parallels. And speaking of Wotherspoon, he and other British-types are going to Lavecon in just a few hours. A very special episode of Frameshift Live – unofficially dubbed Frameshift Lave – will be recorded there. And it’s at least POSSIBLE that the community team will have big news to reveal to the Elite faithful who made the pilgrimage to Milton Keynes, England. But, we think it’s more likely us USA Americans aren’t missing much.

Star Citizen

Star Citizen will face off against EVE online in their lego build off next Friday. It’s the ORE Primae vs the Banu Merchantman, in a no-holds barred winner take all extravaganza… OK, honestly, it’s game nerds building legos. It’s gonna take some Celebrity Apprentice level punching up to make this exciting at all. Hopefully the teams from both companies will try to sabotage themselves and each other to make good radio – or I guess video

Avorion

Avorion’s latest expanion, “Into the Rift” will release August 3. No word on price, but I’m expecting – nay, HAPPY – to pay $15-$20 for the extra story and features.

Community Questions

• >What surprise does the community team have in store for the Lavecon attendees? Wrong answers only.
• What kind of Lego sabotage should the EVE and SC teams try to pull on each other?
