Elite: Dangerous
Elite Dangerous missed a spot when they upgraded the engineering material gathering locations, and they should definitely go back and fix it. Also, congratulations to Lave Radio, who will record their 500th episode on the day we release our 496th. If only Tony hadn’t decided to change states on the home stretch, we might have done this together. And finally, the Just About social media experiment is going just about as we expected.
Star Citizen
Star Citizen released Early Access Pre-Alpha Release Candidate Prototype Experimental Test Build 3.24.0-PTU.9293935 to all backers on the PTU Server. And the long international nightmare is over. Ladies and gentlemen, the progress tracker has been updated. We finally know exactly what CIG is doing and when it will be done. That’s right, we can say, for certain, that some devs are working on Squadron 42, and some devs are working on Star Citizen, and sometimes they switch between the two depending on immediate needs and workflow and that everything will be done when it is ready to be done. And that was absolutely worth waiting almost nine months to find out.
Hunternet Starfighter
Hunternet Starfighter posted a message to our discord last week, and Tony completely forgot to include it in the shownotes. So he apologizes to Fernando and will say extra nice things about the carrier explosions to make up for it.
