Greetings Commanders!

Well, here we are again! Hoping you had a great weekend just passed.

Here this morning with another light bite style Discovery Scanner instalment for you , which you can view at your leisure here: https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/discovery-scanner-14112022



To save a little of your time in advance: I'll confirm that there are no further updates to share on known issues you may raise below in the comments - when I can share more details with you on any reports you've passed through previously or recently, rest assured they will be with you o7



You'll notice as part of this week's article, however, that as part of Frameshift Live on Thursday we will be sharing a little information about what's to come in Update 14 which is absolutely the news a good deal (if not all) of you are primarily interested in.

A big o7 to you as usual, Commanders.

Have a wonderful week.

Really??? I don't know why they always insist on asking the console. If and when there are any console updates or any other bugs, just read the patch notes when released.

Hi Sally,

May I pose a few questions for the CM team to answer for the Livestream's Update 14 segment?
  1. Will there be any changes to how Odyssey handles Bullet Magnetism?
  2. Is there a possibility that we might see an Oppressor buff as part of Update 14?
  3. Those new Rapid Fire Phasing Multicannons are crazy fun, but after using Shock Cannons to get into the low Top 10% of the CG to qualify for two of them, I have to ask: are there any Shock Cannon buffs / adjustments on the horizon?

Thanks a lot for the update Sally. That write up for the Buckyball race sounds really good, I might have to have a go at that :)

So Shock Cannons were good enough to get you into the top 10% but you think they should have a buff?

...Yes.

Most of my damage was from ramming due to the Shock Cannon's extremely limited ammo pool.

Here's what Shock Cannons can do without ramming:

Most ammunition-based weaponry have been left sitting in the dust ever since hitpoint inflation happened, unfortunately. Engineering does some things to mitigate the issue, when it's available, but even then...with the prevalence of HRP/booster stacking, it's going to take a serious rework to fix. Being able to carry extra ammo reserves as cargo could be one way, as Greasetrap42 I think suggested over in the Suggestions area recently.

Why is there so little CM interaction on the ED forum @sallymorganmoore ?
It is very rare these days, are the doomsters correct? ;)

I'm here, sorry Ratty. Yesterday was a bit of a full one!
I need to do better, you can blame me at this point if someone needs to offload on that one. We're a bit heads down with the lead up to U14 but that's no excuse really. I'll do better o7

Know what though? I just realised the link to the article isn't actually linking so I'm going to hot foot fix that one!
LOVE Buckyball events so much!
Ozzy, if you do take part, definitely share your experiences again!
