For you, what is the new thargoid variant ?

Absolutely, it reminds me that there is also a huge narrative blur on what happened at that time.
I originally had some suspicions about it being a potential hint to future Guardian Construct involvement, but the Thargoid Shuriken seens just as plausible now. And probably also makes more sense, assuming that they know or are aware of the connection to Seo and weirdly act on it if she’s in trouble.

Yes, but why, when Seo was saved, she didn't tell us what happened through Galnet ? Or else I missed something.

Well, maybe she’d already jumped to another system or just hopped out when the Thargoid(s) arrived, and they caught the merc out with a shutdown field and blasted them to pieces.

Or, another possible alternative, she doesn’t want to be publicly associated to the Thargoids in such a way. She faces enough suspicion due to her implants already.

Yes, but Thargoids so close to the bubble... seems strange to me...

They’re already imvading and very capable of showing up wherever they like with little to no warning. Doesn’t always have to be with hostile intent toward everybody.

If you’re not convinced, visit the Far God settlements in Etain. It’s pretty much square in the Bubble and you can find Thargoids there frequently without getting shot at.
 
I want a Fortnite dance emote.

Not because I like Fortnite, but because I know that there's a large portion of the player base here who will burst into flames at the sight of another commander performing the dance (the halloween and christmas helmets proved that).
Drinking and dancing, what could be better additions to Elite, I ask anybody? Ok, who said smoking onion head emote...
 
Doomer program:

10 A="New Elite Feature"
20 B="Is there a way to Spread Doom?"
30 IF A+B THEN "Spread DOOM"; GOTO 40
40 DOOM RESPONSE $ "BAD GAME DESIGN";"GAME IS DEAD";"FRONTIER BAD";"PLAY STAR CITIZEN INSTEAD";"GNASH TEETH";"ETC"
50 RANDOMIZE DOOM RESPONSE$
60 PRINT DOOM RESPONSE$

Please note that line 20 is redundant, so to save space, just omit and change line 30 to:
30 IF A THEN "SPREAD DOOM"; GOTO 40

Run this on a C64, guaranteed to work.
 
So I had this thought - remember that “What in the F is that?” message we found in the wreckage of a ship in Ankaa when Tanner sent us searching for traces of Seo’s whereabouts?

In light of this Thargoid reveal - while we’re obviously yet only aware of it as the player - I have a suspicion that it was one of those things showing up. Their starkly different appearance is certainly enough from any other Thargoid to get that reaction out of an unsuspecting pilot.

So clearly these ships are the ones used by the The first Apostle of the True Chapters, and crew, to rescue Seo Jin-ae from the Feds...
 
I meant : do you have any sources of people having seen Glaive Thargoid in the code?
yes?? the code itself why?? in confused what do you mean source???

"eddit" better yet just google it . someone already did a data dump of the stringes of code from the alpha odessey launch before... im more surprised no one actaully knows whats going on with the game.. but yeah if you check the game files some of the stuff was already updated etc . the thargoid glaive being one of them ...

we are gona get 2 new ships base building and on foot thargoids a few new srvs one that already relased (scorpion) and a few new ship launch fighters and 1 or 2 new on foot weapons........... and the stargoids are stations but for thargoids like the ground instalations (the thargoid thingys on the ground where you put guardian relics and green ones comeout) but in space . (no atmospheric planets spoiler alert)

How do you know it was the Feds after her and not Azimuth?

Also wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s their ships…
It's likely, not clear. And I don't think the Federation would do that, what makes you say that?

1. My post was partially tongue in cheek, though with FDev, anything CAN happen...

2. In my commander's mind, the Feds are the evilest of bad guys, while the Imps are only slightly above that and everyone else, except maybe Azimuth Biotech, is waaaaay above that...so I was just using "the Feds" as a stand in for "the bad guys", in general...

3.And, yes, the Feds would definitely do that...if they thought they could get away with it...but I do acknowledge that it could have been any of the, known or otherwise, bad actors...from any power or superpower...

Oh okay, I see what you're talking about, you're talking about The Yamiks video? Now that you say it it's true that it would probably be the Glaive.

Yeah, I’d clarify it anyway to avoid confusion. When you say Feds, people are going to assume Feds and not “bad guys in general”.
