Senior Community Manager : Elite Dangerous
Greetings Commanders and a happy Monday to you.

Here we go again with another instalment of Discovery Scanner! Here's hoping your Monday has been kind to you thus far and the week rolls out to be a great one for you.



Another light and fun vibe for you all today.

In terms of game news - With the team very much heads down, hard at work with progressing toward Update 15, we don't have any major headlines other than pangs of reassurance for you this side of the week, but as we look to share more with you in regards to general progress on game side overall, we'll naturally keep you informed of any immediate news, "on the fly", as we move through the days ahead.

There's also a very fun plan for this week's Frameshift Live, PLUS some more talented, creative Commanders in the spotlight!

Full article now live at: www.elitedangerous.com/news/discovery-scanner-06032023




With that, Commanders, here's wishing you a fun and productive week, in whatever you do, as usual.

We'll be in touch with any updates to information as we pass.

U15 headline
On foot fighting against Thargoids is here! The ugly mofo's have eschewed ship-based warfare and are coming over the hill on all of their feet! (What's that coming over the hill? A monster!).

Some settlements - actually, a lot - are now infested with alien scum and it is your job to drive them out! In fact, some whole planets are now ugly planets, bug planets - and they crawl.

Early infiltration teams have been eliminated in heinous and bodaciously evil ways, providing sustenance for Thargpid egg-sacks but survivors are reporting resinous secretions on the walls and unhuman sounds of... err... humans being devoured in bizarre mating rituals.

Search and Rescue will be paying generously for corpses of and live humans recovered from such horror.

Strap on your AX guns, CMDR's, it really is time to do your part!

Not sure how strap-ons will help you win that war.

I expect the first 6 iterations to be valid, but not the 7th - they showed a rather good consistency in releasing Updates on time lately (as in the last 1-1.5 years)

19th May is 2 years of Oddy, so FDev may even postpone U15 2 or 3 times (weeks) to not break too much and not being apologizing again.

That still doesnt do anything to disprove their rather good record of keeping onto the advertised schedule when it comes about Updates 🤷‍♂️
You may comment on the quality of the said Updates, but not on the timing

So...

I got my 9 upside down when I posted the stream date...
This week's stream date and time has been made PROPER now and not handled all silly like I did...

Thursday, March 09 at 16:00 UTC.

Hope to see you there o7

This (along with last week) is absolute concrete proof Powerplay is U15:

Last week 16 replaced 15- Powerplay Update is 16 characters.....

9 - 6 = 3, Powerplay was the third update for Elite Dangerous.....

Some people would say my coffee is too strong, but I've cracked the code!

Ok, but do not forget the urgend needed bugfixes which are not common as it should be after the release of EDO, further more some bugs related to missions of the ,,new,, space legs which are still present since a long time ( and they was marked as solved, as an example the salvage mission). So hope is there that this tings getting sorted out in update 15. indeed they delivered the scheduled timeframe, but it would be great when they fix common and always visible and repeatable bugs in the same amount of time.

Anyway I hope update 15 will bring us some ,real, bugfixes.

A simple question from a simple Commander - will the Frameshift Live HQ Carrier set some Buy/Sell items to trade in its Commodity Market? I mean, with all the time, effort and expense of getting to Pleiades Sector DL-Y D65, it would be nice if we could make a credit or two off of F: Dev (and actually engage in some Elite: Dangerous core game activity) while we are about it!
