…As many of you will be aware, hardware vulnerabilities have been discovered in many brands and types of CPUs that were manufactured in the last 20 years, affecting computers across the globe.
Here at CCP, we are in the process of patching and performance testing our infrastructure with the aim of making the impact on game performance and player experience as minimal as possible, so that you guys can continue to enjoy blowing up each other’s internet spaceships.
Security patches for macOS, Window 7/8/10 and Linux are all in the process being rolled out from their operating system vendors (from Microsoft, Apple, and the Linux community) to address the issue. Both latest macOS and Windows 10 have already received updates that resolve the issue, and Windows 7 and 8 will receive updates tomorrow (2018/01/08). For many of our pilots, your systems will have either already received an update, if you’re running

Hooray, we have a teenager!
13 years ago a dream was born, a dream about a Community full of great people and lots of fun.
Together we went through ups and downs, worked hard to create something impressive that people always will remember and enjoyed the fruits of this hard work.
This community evolved into something great and after 13 years we are in a situation where we have so many options that its hard to decide.
Whatever that future decisions will be, we keep moving forward, knowing that this is a place by the players for the players.
In the past years I often released impressive numbers about Portal visitors, mod downloads... etc.
I'll skip that today.
While these numbers are about the same as last year (slightly better) I consider them relative unimportant.
You cant measure joy in numbers.
People had the chance to discover all the new stuff in CF2.0 during the past year and also helped to make this mod even better.
People also were active on the forum.
This shows me that this is a

…General: Resolved an issue that was causing the Discovery Klingons to not use modern torpedoes. Resolved an issue that was causing the Type 7 Shuttle to not appear in the reclaim store. The Borg engine attachment is now properly seated on the nacelle for the Dinaes Warbird Destroyer (T6) Resolved an issue that was causing the Male Caitian Ears to clip through the Vedek Hood. Resolved an issue that was causing the Duty Officer weekend to display on the Calendar. Content: Captains can now access and begin playing the first episode in any story arc. The Crystalline Entity TFO has been updated with various changes to match the Event version: There is now a 30 second Mission Briefing time before the TFO begins. This allows players time to join the TFO and read the briefing if necessary, before taking on the Entity. The Entity shards that it deploys are now immune to

…It's been an excellent week for Excalibur models! The Wing Commander community has its own version of the twin movie phenomenon where it seems like fans develop similar items in totally separate bubbles. As is often the case, the result here is that we have double the amazing eye candy to enjoy! In his latest masterpiece, Defiance_Industries designed a slightly beefed up Excalibur based on the Secret Ops version as a bridge to the concept version meant for Wing Commander Arena. There are some very handsome shots of it parked in the Victory's flight deck - plus pics alongside a classic Excalibur and Midway megacarrier. Last, but certainly not least, Defiance has mocked up an entire virtual history of this variant in an ICIS style recap. You can read up on that in a PDF here.
While Pedro is providing quality digital entertainment to the masses, I needed something to keep my skills sharp. So I

…Hello!
Thanks for your continued feedback following the release of Atlas Rises! Today we’re releasing Patch 1.32 on PS4 and PC, which addresses the following issues:
- Fixed an issue that could cause cargo slots not to unlock after purchase
- Players who had previously learned all alien words are now able to progress through the story
- Players who’ve unlocked all general exosuit slots can now unlock tech and cargo slots as intended
- We’ve fixed an issue that caused base NPCs to stop responding after claiming a new base location. This will prevent new occurrences of the issue, a fix for those who have already experienced it is under investigation
- Fixed an issue preventing players from being able to finish farmer and exocraft missions
- The base terminus teleporter will now display mission objectives, allowing you to select the correct system. It will also no longer ‘forget’ mission critical systems. This will prevent

This ship spotlight with focus on one of two hulls from the Servant Sisters of EVE that are featured in this series – this time it’s the Stratios class cruiser.
A formidable drone platform with an armoured hull to match, the Stratios is perfectly suited to exploring and surviving the perils of deep space, and shines when flown in situations where exploring an unknown or hostile area of space is a key part of deployment.
While Alpha pilots will not benefit from the Covert Ops bonuses of the Stratios, this well-built cruiser still provides ample firepower, drone versatility and capability for non-covert exploration and astrometry that can be utilized by those flying with Alpha clones.
In Detail:
Class: Cruiser
Weapons: 4 Turrets
Slot Layout:
- 5 High Power Slots
- 5 Medium Power Slots
- 5 Low Power

Just about a week ago I announced another update that I want to release end of December 2016 or beginning Janurary 2017 (depending on how fast I can finish the development and how much extra content I decide to put in). This new update will introduce the "Dynamic Universe" feature to Crossfire 2.0. Some people might remember that we had a similar feature in Crossfire 1.83, long time ago. Due to the complexity of such a feature and due to other priorities, the "Dyniamic Universe" didn't make it

…Arne from
Android Artshas been bitten by the Wing Commander bug lately and the result has been a wide ranging gallery of WC sketches. He put together some interesting
mockupsabout a year ago that focused heavily on the WC1/2 timeframe, and now his new work spans virtually the entire series. This time he's got aliens in addition to ships, and this lineup includes Confed soldiers, Kilrathi, Firekkans, Steltek and even the Mopoks! His fighter sketches also have grown to include works from
bothPrivateers, and there's a Tri-System Melissa Banks-inspired outfit! The Tarsus first person cockpit also makes an appearance. These are super fun, and I'm anxious to see what else he makes in the future. You can read more about his specific inspiration

A cool Wing Commander II preview in Spanish! Posted by La Abadía del Juego.
This is first news I'd seen about Wing Commander. Here they talked about part 2, and in Spain the first had not even come out. One of the sagas that has affected me the most in all my life.

…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
