I've estimated that it's been about 8 months since i have even touched Elite. Oh boy has a lot changed. I almost feel as if it were the first time i played this game again. I need the guidance and help of you loyal folk who have witnessed its changes. What have i been missing out on since? What are the yellow icons on certain systems? What's this intelligence discovered? Are the targoids here yet?
 
The biggest change is that the AI for the NPCs is much better and more aggressive. Whatever ship you were using, get a smaller, faster, cheaper one.

Yellow icons are Community Goals (CGs)

No Thargoids, but an alien shipwreck has been discovered. Youtube is your best place to search for this.
 
So you've missed out on a fair bit of season 2. The Engineers for one, big missions update with that, ability to modify ship modules/weapons, removal of silent running meta, buff to missiles, buff to heat weapons. Jaques station in deep space. 4 days till the 2.2 beta for passenger missions and ship launched fighters and capital ship shipyards and geological features on planets. :D:D

Yeah quite a bit, have a look round and if you have any questions fire away. The "What's changed in X months?" question is impossible to answer as its quite a lot and you may only want to hear about certain bits like the story or the updates or the game world etc.
 
Turrets seldom cause friendly fire incidents anymore, mines are almost essential for freighters, you are not prevented from taking missions that are designed to be a challenge for top rank players, there is a station and community 22,000 light years away, you can by spoilers and wings for some of the ships with more due in a month.
