Perhaps they're proofreading yesterday's illiterate, typo infested, stories ... so it could be a while! ;) :D



That's one answer as to why their stories are illiterate and typo infested then! :D

Which is why Tangle is an anagram of Galnet, but more importantly also Ant gel.

Maybe its just me, but Galnet does kind of need a shot in the... bottom. I think more of what story we have going is passed through the forums, events and social media than is being parlayed through Galnet.

^ This. My commander in game should be learning all of what's happening via Galnet. There should be absolutely no need for streams, forums and emails to let 'me' know what is happening in game.
 
Sorry if this has been said before but..

I can't find anything on Galnet regarding 'The Return' of our space buddies the Thargoids.

Or have I missed something?

Remember... They have said the Feds and the empire are covering anything up. Tis why there is no news
 
No news on Galnet... that is the Ministry/Ministries of Truth at work... probably find any galnet reporter that tries to talk about the Thargoid in the current/future tense will end up in some dark hole surrounded by an INRA guard contingent.

My guess is that the update hasn't gone "live" yet. This should have been kept under wraps until the day it happened. Then all players get this "BREAKING NEWS" item on comms saying something about reports of an invading fleet, destroyed Navy vessels, etc.
 
Galnet can only report on current affairs in the game. 'The Return' isn't it the game yet. How can they report something that hasn't happened ?
No doubt it will, when the time comes.

But it has, CMDR Ed Lewis sent a message live across the galaxy via comms when it happened on Wednesday.

Um... I recorded this in the live game - on Wednesday Morning.

16 JUN 3303
Over the past few days, media streams have been abuzz with news that the so-called Unknown Ships are in fact Thargoid vessels, as many had speculated. The Federal Times, having spent several days confirming sources and authenticating reports, has now published an in-depth account of the events that led to the revelation.

It is understood that Professor Ishmael Palin, a leading authority on xeno-biological research, determined the vessels’ origin by comparing data from the Unknown Ships with older Thargoid samples. Palin’s experiments resulted in conclusive proof that the Unknown Ships were Thargoid.

A short time later, Palin’s data was seized by Federal agents, who attempted to convey it to a Federal research facility. But in a shocking turn of events, the ship carrying the data was attacked en route to its destination. There is strong evidence to suggest the attack was executed by Thargoid vessels.

The incapacitation of the Federal vessel resulted in the information entering the public domain. But the cryptic nature of the data meant that The Federal Times was compelled to conduct further research before publishing its report.

In its story, the Federal Times also posited that the barnacles may be of Thargoid origin, given their relationship with the Thargoid ships, but stopped short of suggesting a link between the Thargoids and the Unknown Probes and Artefacts, which many also believe to be non human objects.

Meanwhile, the public mood was best summarised by Kelvin Masters, a freelance journalist, who contributed the following to the Rewired news feed:

“Look at the history books. Every time we’ve met the Thargoids, there’s bloodshed. We need to prepare for the worst. I mean, they’ve already attacked human ships! What kind of contingencies do the superpowers have in place? And what do we know about the Thargoids’ capabilities? What kind of weapons do they have? What kind of defences? And why did the Federation take Palin’s data? Were they trying to keep it quiet? These questions need to be answered!”

The leaders of the galaxy’s three superpowers are expected to make statements shortly.
