Quote from Elite Dangerous Galnet News-Bot

Technology journalist Harlow Nassry has published an article in The Federal Times regarding a mysterious criminal group known only as 'the Collective':

"Several recent digital crimes, including the theft of a billion credits from Zachary Rackham, have now been attributed to the Collective. Security forces have launched investigations, but it seems that the name is already well known among hacker communities."

"The Collective is a group of anti-authority 'hacktivists' who believe that all information should be publicly available. It has existed for some years, but until recently its activities have been small scale."

"Nobody knows the identity of the group's members, which has no spokespersons or apparent leaders. As anarchists, they delight in flouting the law, believing that all data should be in the public domain – except, of course, data about themselves."

"Some see the Collective as

Hello,

Thanks for all your continued feedback – we’ve been listening carefully and have continued to make a number of improvements. In this patch we’re introducing an overhauled save system, which makes managing saves between game modes much easier.

This patch is available now on PC and PS4. Read on for full patch notes!

New save system

• You will now be presented with 5 save-game slots (each of which can be used for any game mode). Your existing saves will be mapped into these slots
• Selecting an empty slot will start a new game, allowing you to then pick which game mode to play from the mode select menu
• There are now two sub-slots for each save-game – one for automatic saves and one for manual saves.
  • Automatic saves occur when exiting your ship, dying, purchasing a Freighter or claiming a base
  • Manual saves occur when interacting with a save point (these can be built from the build menu), or a beacon found on

Quote from Mass Effect News-Bot

Marvel’s Daredevil has finally returned to Netflix for its long anticipated Season 3, marking the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen’s first outing after the events of the mashup series The Defenders. With the new season becoming available on Netflix earlier today, many fans will be tempted to skip the show’s recap, though doing so would be to miss out on a pretty amazing Mass Effect 3 Easter egg.

Lmao, the recap uses Mass Effect 3’s Leaving Earth… from r/Daredevil

The news comes by way of Reddit, wherein a Redditor dutifully sat through the Daredevil recap before the beginning of Season 3 and discovered that the recap actually used the “Leaving Earth” score from Mass Effect 3. Perhaps the most popular track in BioWare’s trilogy capstone, “Leaving Earth” features beautiful piano work with the now iconic Reaper ‘Bwooooom’ sound punctuating the track. Netflix’s Daredevil series’ soundtracks tend to use a

We recently reported that Wing Commander SNES artist Mike Winterbauer had launched a Kickstarter to create a physical portfolio showing the creation and use of his cover painting. We're happy to report that the $500 funding goal has been reached... and then some! As of this writing, the project hass already brought in pledges for over three times the original goal. Congratulations to Mr. Winterbauer and good work to the Wing Commander community.

One of the first questions about the campaign was: how can I get EVERYTHING? To that end, he has added a new "Ultimate Wing Commander" pledge level. For $230 you get the book, the metal sign, the magnet, the six prints, the art card, the canvas print and the giclee print! If you love the Wing Commander SNES painting as much as we do that's a heck of a deal. You can join the campaign or adjust your pledge here. There are still three weeks to go... so who knows,

Want to work with a star? Your dream could come true if you get hired by Steven Petrarca Events. While the delta variant continues to scourge across the land in my area and many others, California has taken a relatively modest hit and the fancy gathering industry appears to be booming. SPE is hiring, so the opportunity exists to pick up gigs working as "servers, bartenders, models/brand ambassadors, tray passers, scullery, and more!" I looked it up, and scullery has something to do with washing dishes. Mr. Petrarca has been doing this for almost fifteen years now and has garnered even more attention in the hospitality industry than in the acting business - where he famously starred Lance Casey in Wing Commander Prophecy!

SPE is a boutique event planning and hospitality company located in Los Angeles, California, known for thoughtful residential style, and relaxed sophistication. We specialize in

Inspired by UnnammedCharacter's WC Toolbox and Marty2Life's recent German translation, L@Zar0 has put together a brand new Spanish translation! He's been steadily making progress for the past month, so releases are available for both Wing Commander 1&2, plus both Secret Missions and Special Operations. This is a wonderful surprise for fans trying to play the classics in their native language, and there's even hope that he might tackle Privateer in the future. You can download the WC1/SM package here (4 meg zip) and the WC2/SO package here (5 meg zip). Readmes are included with more instructions or you can learn more at these pages at his site. This should work for either the original DOS or GOG versions. Even if you're not up for playing through the game in another language, check out these juicy images of it in action!

I want to give the thanks to UnnamedCharacter (and the members) that have

Quote from Wing Commander News-Bot

About ten years ago, it was briefly popular for Wingnuts to splice up clips from various Wing Commanders and pair them with popular music. You don't see this much these days, since the overall novelty of casual video editing has worn off and it takes significantly more effort to create a slick production that stands out in the crowd. Nevertheless, Abbat Faria recently paired up cuts from the Wing Commander movie with Linkin Park's "By Myself." I'm still slightly baffled as to why it exists, but it's not the craziest Wing Commander creation I've stumbled across lately. I can only imagine that this version is superior to the original video though. Perhaps it resonates a bit more with people who are fans of the music...

Quote from Star Trek Online News-Bot

“Silent?” Kagran repeated the word at the viewscreen, but he had heard General Martok clearly enough. It was rhetorical. He was merely trying to buy time to process what he had just heard. “Yes, silent, captain.” Martok did not appear to either pick up on or care for the pointless inquiry. “In all my days Rura Penthe has been described with many words, but never silent.” Kagran understood Martok’s meaning, all too well. Rura Penthe was the most notorious penal colony in the Empire, if not anywhere. It was a product of the old ways, a testament to the brutality of the Empire, and a promise to betrayers. Its population consisted mainly of political prisoners, or those whose dishonor was so heinous they did not deserve a warrior’s death. Why would it suddenly go silent? As if sensing Kagran’s internal musing on the subject, Martok continued, “If the listening posts have gone silent then it is

N7 day is finally here, and Mass Effect fans all over the world are celebrating BioWare’s iconic series by once again playing through the original trilogy, or exploring the unknown in Mass Effect Andromeda.

New Episode - Secrets This is Admiral Kensington. I have a special assignment for you. A Klingon raiding party attacked one of our science stations near the Delta Volanis Cluster. Please assist them in any way you can. A Klingon raiding party attacked a Starfleet research facility near the Delta Volanis Cluster, but left survivors and took nothing. The station is damaged, however, and the staff could use your help to resume normal operations. Be on your guard – this could be a Klingon ruse. Be ready for anything. If things get desperate, one of Starfleet’s top-secret vessels is in the area and can assist if necessary. Get on this as soon as you can – Starfleet Command needs to know what the Klingons are up to out there. Secrets is the first episode available to Discovery-era Captains after completing the tutorial. It will also be available to 2409 and TOS-era Captains as a historical

Quote from Elite Dangerous Galnet News-Bot

In May, a criminal organisation known as the Socho Gold Raiders assumed control of the Socho system, headquarters of Aegis Core.

Since then the system has descended further into chaos, culminating in the loss of services at Dantec Enterprise due to Thargoid sensor-related interference. This in turn led to the temporary immobilisation of Aegis's Eagle Eye network, a system of orbital installations designed to determine potential Thargoid attack sites.

In the wake of this calamity, Federal President Zachary Hudson has announced that Aegis Core is to relocate from Socho to the Federal home system of Sol.

In a statement broadcast directly from the White House on Mars, Hudson said:

"Recent events in Socho have taught us that no matter the scale of the Thargoid threat, there will always be those more interested in fighting their fellow man than engaging the enemy."

"Let me be clear: we are at war.

With BioWare putting the spotlight on their upcoming new IP, Anthem, fans still have that itch in desperate need of scratching. The one that pertains to Mass Effect and/or Dragon Age, of course. Gamers need to know what’s next, and while the fourth installment of the latter franchise is underway, there are many questions left unanswered. Sadly, it will remain that way for some time, but that doesn’t mean we can’t expect some sort of information to pop up.

According to BioWare’s Casey Hudson, the Mass Effect and Dragon Age news that so many desire might be closer than one would expect. In a post to the BioWare blog, he talked about Anthem, which is to be expected at this point in time. However, he also touched on a few other properties. “In the meantime, our Star Wars: The Old Republic team is hard at work on some amazing plans for the coming year, with new features and surprises that I think makes it the
