Elite Dangerous Odyssey | Minor Update 08.09.2022

[Epaphus]

Greetings Commanders///

Tomorrow, September 8, we will be releasing a small, client side update containing the following///

• Adjustment to lens flares so that they are now appearing on all quality settings and are visible at the correct ranges.​

Servers will be offline between the hours of 08:00 BST and 10:00 BST in order for deployment to take place. An update will then be available to you shortly after

2 hours to adjust some lens flares was J.J. Abrams involved?

Wait, why is this message embedded in the PNG? I just discovered it too, like some before me.

Lens flares. Yeah. Wonder how many GB those lensflares are.

 

[Pyrii]

I found the coded message. Not sure what it means though, is this just an easter egg or should I be looking for the next step?

MAC address of the starport mainframe where they keep the Thargoid nudes.

... erm, nude thargoids... sounds a bit dodgey if you ask me ... was hoping the thargs would be a little more cultured than us humans

 

[Derelict ship]

Ok, either the station in the png is REALLY shiny or... or ... oh wait ... I just remembered I didn't feed my dog at Beagle Point! Have to go now!

Still, after reading all these cryptic posts, I am getting a little hexcited...

 

[Rossilaz58YT]

When opened in a HEX editor, there is

"01001010 01110101 01110011 01110100 00100000 01100010 01100101 01100011 01100001 01110101 01110011 01100101 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 00100000 01100011 01100001 01101110 00100111 01110100 00100000 01110011 01100101 01100101 00100000 01110011 01101111 01101101 01100101 01110100 01101000 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01100100 01101111 01100101 01110011 01101110 00100111 01110100 00100000 01101101 01100101 01100001 01101110 00100000 01101001 01110100 00100000 01101001 01110011 00100000 01101110 01101111 01110100 00100000 01110010 01100101 01100001 01101100"
