Discovery Scanner - 12.12.2022

[sallymorganmoore]

Greetings Commanders.

Talk about festive bells and whistles - this week's Discovery Scanner may as well be frosted and covered in cinnamon too, in all honesty.
Big focus this week on an angle of celebration as we drift into these grand finale weeks of the year in the Galaxy.

There are some important things to note as part of the top, 'Game News' section, however we'll focus more on those when we can outside of Discovery Scanner in general.

For your festive viewing pleasure: https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/discovery-scanner-12122022

Have a wonderful week ahead, Commanders o7

I love to endure a good bit of fruit loaf.

Cat ears helmet cosmetics when?

 

[Jabo Zerstorer]

I hope we get a Winking Cat type thing again for New Year (not the same, obviously) but with the Thargoid War happening, Commanders may not have the time to go and find everything.

Thank you for the update. I watch Twitch and have noticed that many Twitch viewers are confused about whether the drops are paintjobs or actual ships in game. If possible, I'd recommend renaming the reward items to clearly identify them.

Hmmmmm we'll look out for these comments in the chat for sure but we're always as clear as possible (always room to be clearer, for sure!) with calling out that they're paint jobs often throughout streams.

I just ducked into father_bill's stream and the twitch popup (that appears in the chat window) says "Get Diamondback Explorer by watching father_bill play Elite: Dangerous", no mention of it being a paint job so that might be a contributing factor.

Totally can understand that for sure. I'll take a look at what we can do o7

Oof...

Legacy gets dumped hard!

 

[Taimaru]

Thanks Sally. I'm looking forward to the Festive Frameshift Live on Thursday.

Merry Christmas to you, everyone in the team and all at Frontier!

Here's a screenshot, just for further clarification.

 

[Razar]

I tried to enter for the Elite Dangerous Odyssey gaming chair. When I linked my Twitter account to try to enter, it said that my account (which I have been using for years) was not qualified, and said it was a "throwaway account". Can someone please tell me how to get in touch with someone about this so I can get it fixed and entered?

Razar.

Legacy gets dumped hard!

I am wondering why these festive repaints won't work in 3.8 - is there something in the effects - because I can't see anything that wouldn't work on my legacy ships. (I have the festive countdown partner and FD stream drops.)

I'm sure they would work, but they've said that Legacy won't get any further updates or content, so I guess they're sticking with it.

Finale to 2022 yes, Grand no!
