Aegis has announced that it will allow technology brokers to reduce their requirements for producing items, in order to increase overall combat effectiveness against the Thargoids.
Henrik de Lacerda, a senior engineer at Aegis Research, clarified this development:
"Aegis is aware that the galactic community has worked incredibly hard to oppose the Thargoids in the core systems. To show our appreciation, we are making it easier for independent pilots to obtain advanced weaponry and hardware."
"We have contacted all registered technology brokers and supplied them with additional funding, resources and manufacturing equipment. As a result, they now need fewer commodities and materials from those purchasing their designs."
"Our hope is that by helping pilots to upgrade their ships, we can enhance their survivability and encourage more Commanders to join the fight against the Thargoids."

The Distant Worlds II expedition has reached its final destination on the far side of the galaxy: the Beagle Point system.
Science correspondent Leon Banerjee reported for Vox Galactica:
"The Distant Worlds exploratory fleet, comprising thousands of independent pilots, set out from the Pallaeni system on 13th January 3305. Over three months later, after travelling more than 73,000 light years, ships have begun arriving at Beagle Point."
"Included among the expedition's achievements is the construction of the scientific research station Explorer's Anchorage. This now serves as a permanent waypoint for travellers to the galactic core, as well as facilitating detailed observation of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A*."
"While Distant Worlds II is coming to a close, its participants will now plot their own routes through unexplored space back towards the core systems."

While Casse Aerospace bears the name of an engineering legend, the company itself has faded from memory for all but the most dedicated ship enthusiasts. Or at least that was the case for over a century until Anvil Aerospace resurrected one of Casse’s designs and alongside it, interest in the man himself and the ships he built.
An Edleson Design Institute Hall of Fame inductee in 2902, Leonard Casse has earned a place in the annals of history as one of the top spacecraft visionaries of the Messer Era. While the general populace may wind up considering his creation of the Hurricane fighter the most enduring part of his legacy, his effect on the industry overall is not limited to that one design. Cited by ship design luminaries such as J. Harris Arnold, Silas Koerner, and Jules Parliegh as a prime source of inspiration, Casse’s influence can be seen

2012 was a very weird year.
The world did not end, eventhough mass effect 3 was a catastrophy.
Looking back at the year which is almost over I unfortunately have many negative impressions in mind... more negative than positive actually.
Community members which prefer to argue than to work together, the loss of a clan, conflicts between communities, players which complain about every shit instead of making use of what they got and not fulfilled objectives for the year.
Most of the above mentioned stuff had negative impact on the portal.
The lack of help and support aswell all the troubles generated by the players have thrown back the development of CF2.0 by many months. Even worse, it nearly killed the motivation of the team.
I remember 3 times when Huor requested help and got not even a reply.... and I know that people had the knowledge and ability to help. Probably its best if I dont mention how many times I requested help and got no reply during the past year.
It saddens me that

…Hello Everyone!
We are so excited to finally share the focus of our development efforts over the past few weeks: a large update focused on improving and extending planetary exocraft!
A brand new exocraft is now available to drive across the galaxies: the rugged, fast-moving Pilgrim.
The Geobay for the Pilgrim is available for purchase from the Blueprint Analyser.The existing exocraft have also been tweaked. Multiplayer racing has been fixed, inventory sizes have been increased, and summoning has been made easier. Geobays now only need to be built once – after that, all owned exocraft can be summoned with unlimited range on any planet where you’ve constructed a new Exocraft Summoning Station.
New upgrades for the Pilgrim and all other exocraft can be purchased from the Exocraft Technician once their missions are complete. Exocraft handling can also be adjusted with a series of new technologies, allowing players to

Mega Kudos to

Uninstall the previous version and install the current. Upon launch, it will ask you to download two updates. After that, you are ready to play the old multiplayer version of Flat Universe. For the time being of course.;)Let me point some of the basic bug fixes that have been made:
- It is tested to install and work correctly on Windows 10 with UAC raised.
- The Launch button activates only when all the patches are fuly installed.

On his way to a new assignment in Sol System, very junior Order Lieutenant Nico Slate had flown his brand-new Horizon from Liberty space through Bretonia without serious incident. A few encounters along the way had resulted in criminal pilots either retreating after a brief exchange of gunfire or sheering off before engaging...

Over the past 3 weeks ive done dozens of updates on the SWAT Portal and its associated websites.
The updates reach from minor correction, security fixes, new features and some restructuring.
Most noticable today certainly is that our fellow bot ran amok.
I completely replaced it with a new better working version which had to catch up some work.
Its running smooth now and will support us here in a much better way than the old bot.
One of the big changes concerns mostly the players that are part of our STO Fleets. Here the member management has been completely recreated in order to do updates of the rank system on the fly and link everything directly with the SWAT community framework.
I'll explain the details to the STO fleets later.
A new and certainly very interesting feature for all out members might be our new "Competition" system which allows us to run multiple leages here at the Portal.
I think Freelancer Event Managers will find good use for such a feature.

Display MoreWe're happy to announce the official Linux release on Steam and GOG today!
Please note that we recommend Ubuntu 16.04 and we do not support VR or HOTAS on Linux.
There have been a few known issues on AMD GPUs that we cannot pin down exactly to specific models or drivers. What we know is that when running AMD on open source drivers at least MESA 17.2 with LLVM 5 is required. We received a few reports indicating that proprietary AMD-GPU-Pro were working but were unable to confirm this.
Please have fun playing Everspace and let us know if there are any problems!

A relatively new hull developed by Mordu’s Legion engineers in response to rumours of a new type of fast attack vessel from the Guristas Pirates, the Orthrus was born as part of a new breed of rapid strike vessels.
The crash development of this family of ships has seen the emergence of a new style of vessel that provides both tactical flexibility and solid firepower across several ship lines.
The Orthrus is at the core of Mordu’s Legion’s newest strike formations, and provides superior projection of damage using flexible missile subsystems, while still leaving room for fast target interdiction and the ability to effectively control the range at which engagements take place.
