Greetings capsuleers, and especially greetings fleet commanders and CEO's.

After some discussion with the CSM early last week about issues with filing fleet fight notifications, teams Webster and Tech Co have collaborated to bring an update and improvement to the fleet fight notification tool. For those who have not seen this before, this tool allows players to confidentially notify CCP of their intention to have a large fight. This allows us to place the solar systems involved in the fight on a dedicated high-performance node to provide the best possible experience.

The CSM raised the issue of players struggling to use the tool, which would sometimes reject requests for node reinforcement for unclear reasons. The common concerns were that the issue seemed to be related to requests for fights within the next 24 hours.

After investigation, we have found that the exact cause of the issue was a logic statement

The Ferengi have seen the return of the Dominion, Odo, and the Hur’q as the opportunity of a lifetime. Using Gamma Quadrant supplies and Ferenginar’s own munitions factories, they have come presenting a medley of new armaments for the Alliance’s disposal. Not surprisingly, the Lobi Consortium has also joined in this cause and brought the fruits of their endeavors. The following are some of the brand new items in the Deep Space Nine Lock Box – Holographic Deep Space Nine Bridge Officers to join your crew and away teams. A Vanity-Only Ferengi Shield, allowing a player to take on the visual look of classic Ferengi ships, capable of dropping from the Weapon pack. A Lobi Hunter Ground Set based on the Tosk Hunters in the DS9 Episode, “Captive Pursuit”. Ferengi-Inspired Outfits Based on the attire of familiar DS9 characters, see below for more details and images. The Deep Space

has put together a neat short clip on the nature of fighter space combat. Daniel talks about the need to turn into your enemy, avoid jousting and aim for large targeting surfaces among other things. Wing Commander isn't the focus of the video, but it may as well be as most of the topic is relevant to fighting in the WC universe. A second video talks about how hard it would actually be to evade missiles in space. Tough times for fighter pilots!

Spacedock gives some handy day-to-day advice on Space Dogfighting.

Lost Fleet is going to continue the Crossfire bonus missions and will open a new world for the players to explore. Main focus will be the Sol sector and its past secrets. With this new update we will introduce new systems (additional to Epsilon Eridani and Tau Ceti), new natural solar objects, new stations, new ships, new equipment and even (a) new faction(s) aswell as new story content related to it.

Quote from Star Trek Online News-Bot

The Terran Empire’s latest incursion into the modern universe was accidental but no less effective for it. Details around the actual conflict are tightly classified, but debris and technology from that conflict have appeared in our universe, much to our scientists' delight. Starfleet, the Lobi Consortium, and a handful of other interested parties have acquired and replicated all manner of interesting tech from the dark side of the mirror. What twisted paths might the Terrans have taken as their trek through the cosmos diverged ever farther from Starfleet’s? What advances unchecked by treaty or conscience have now arrived in our universe? The Emperor’s Lock Box is filled with brutal machinations Emperor Georgiou saw fit to grace with a berth aboard her flagship, the I.S.S. Charon. It contains a ship, space weapons, duty officer assignments, kit modules, and traits. Additionally, each box contains a

This week at Bungie, we’re heading to gamescom.

The away team is all packed up and ready to ship out to Köln, Germany, for a week of community love and Gambit trials. Our booth will be home to some friendly skirmishes. We’ll host as many Guardians as we can. We'll find some moments to show you some things you have yet to see and tell you some things you have yet to hear. Keep your eyes on our social channels next week!

Not all of us will be battling jetlag and minions of Darkness. Here at home base, Forsaken is in the very final stages of development. We’re applying finishing touches, and we know there are still

Continuing our exploration of battlecruisers, this Ship Spotlight will focus on the Minmatar Republic’s Hurricane class.

In typical no-nonsense Matari fashion, the Hurricane’s design principles are relatively simple – speed, power and surprise, which make it perfect for guerrilla warfare and the typical lighting fast incursions that the Republic Fleet are famed for.

A highly versatile vessel, the Hurricane has enough turret hardpoints for a full-scale assault while remaining flexible enough to allow for plenty of missile fire. Couple this with sufficient speed to outrun its enemies and enough power capacity to outlast them, and the threat this nimble hull poses becomes very apparent.

With simple turret oriented bonuses to damage, rate of fire, optimal range and falloff, the Hurricane can be deadly in the

Quote from Elite Dangerous Galnet News-Bot

A radical group called Nova Imperium is gaining influence throughout the Empire.

Imperial Herald journalist Cassia Carvalho highlighted the situation:

"Nova Imperium claims that to survive the Thargoid conflict, the Empire must sever contact with all other systems and concentrate on protecting itself. In recent months, the organisation has become a genuine political force."

"The group's leader is known only as the Imperator. Dressed in an Imperial Navy uniform, he is a charismatic presence who speaks of 'a return to the honour of the old days' and 'the glory of Achenar'."

"Many traditionalist citizens, unhappy with recent cross-superpower cooperation, have embraced the Imperator's rhetoric. On several worlds, Nova Imperium's followers hold rallies with a distinctly martial feel."

"So far there has been little response from Imperial authorities, but it is clear that Nova Imperium will soon

Happy Bungie Day.

If you’re new to the community, you may find yourself asking, “Wait, why has Bungie dedicated a day to celebrating itself?”

To turn the page back to the beginning, Bungie Day is a holiday started by our community. Every year on the seventh day of the seventh month, we join our fans in celebrating the community as a whole— reflecting on friendships forged, sharing war stories from past skirmishes, or even flipping through some old photos of events where fireteam members met in person for the first time and solidified their bond for years to come.

This year, we have some exciting news.

The folks here at DFTG absolutely love mods – even the really strange ones – so we’re always on the lookout for any kinds of mods that could heighten our experiences within our favorite games. Now, our spotlight is focusing on Fallout: New Vegas, which already has an impressive mod community dedicated to updating and revitalizing the popular Bethesda title. The Fallout: New Vegas mod we’re looking at today, though, adds something new – and pretty awesome – to the game! Created by xxShepardxx, this Fallout: New Vegas mod lets you play as Jack from the Mass Effect series, and it is absolutely amazing!

Now available for download through Mediafire, the ‘ME3 Jack’ mod for New Vegas lets you play as the edgy, super-powered biotic that we all know and love from the Mass Effect series.

An appeal has been launched to find the owner of a lottery ticket worth one billion credits.

The Federal Grand Lottery is the largest of its kind, regularly handing out millions of credits. The Grand Lottery also funds a wide range of social and infrastructure projects in Federation systems.

The annual Galactic Jackpot is by far the most popular lottery game, but on this occasion the winner has yet to make a claim. Purchase of the winning ticket has been confirmed, but no data is available as to who bought the ticket or when.

Tori Theopolis, a spokesperson for the Federal Grand Lottery, told the media:

"Someone out there is rich beyond his or her wildest dreams – they just don't know it yet. We're keen to find this lucky individual so we can hand over their winnings. We ask all citizens to check with any lottery players they know. Your soon-to-be-billionaire friend or relative might be very
