Newcomer / Intro Elite Meet: Birmingham

Luke3107 · Sep 30, 2016

Obviously the event wasn't live streamed or anything but can anyone tell me if it was at least recorded and likely to be posted for us non-locals to see? I live in the NE of Scotland so Birmingham is around a 7 hour drive for me (I think, not measured it tbh), not to mention all you fine CMDRs living overseas.

I've had a look online and had a brief search on forums but all I can find are potato quality recordings taken with someones Nokia 3310 or some rubbish... To say nothing of the atrocious sound quality too.

Edit: Or at the very least I'd like to know of somewhere I can see the clips and announcements or Q+As in decent quality

If nothing else does anyone know the appropriate forum to ask this sort of question? I get it's hardly a "newcomers" question but it's not an "Xbox Discussion" either or a Community Event so I dunno.

In all honesty I don't think it was streamed.

There is a community events sub-forum for both in game and out of game here: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/forumdisplay.php/100-Community-Events

And a thread on it here:

But I also can't find a proper stream which implies there wasn't one. Normally streams end up on the FDev youtube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/FrontierDevelopments/videos

Guess I'll just have to accept that not being there means I don't get to see the announcements in good detail then =/

Yeah, there's a few good youtubers like Obsidian Ant that covered the announcements but for the most part I think we will get it filtered through in the next newsletter or two.

The weekly ca. 2 hour Lave Radio podcast also cover these types of events and the latest newsletters in some detail.

Fingers crossed. I did see Obsidian Ants video but he mostly just talked about it over his own game clips. Which is totally fine but when he mentioned different clips being shown I thought "Ooh, I'd like to see those." Sadly, the only ones I can find are the aforementioned potato recordings =/
