Loving the Galnet updates on all sorts of stuff like famines etc. Very cool.

Cant make head nor tale of them but I think I will soon.

More!


Not sure what but I'd love to see more stuff.

Bring on Pledge specific news feeds for those in power play please but not at the expense of those not taking part.

Good Job FD :)

The new GalNet news is awesome! I love how they incorporate the leader portraits with various backgrounds, each time - more or less - appropriate for the news article.

Great work, FD!

Yep, GalNet really make power events less boardgame-ish and feel more like actual events happening, also sound and visuals are very well done (loving dynamic music brought up every time switching to new item). Big ups for audio and art/gui teams!

Separation of GalNet and local news also helps with overcrowding of news pane in stations. I still would like to see some nice icons for local news indicating content of those (bounty list, traffic reports, etc.). Still, big improvement over previous version.

I'd like to see more backgrounds and images for non-faction related events, and the 'round up' news items, but that's a minor thing. Could do with some filter tabs as well.

What I love most is the tiniest of detail. Since I'm a hyperlocal player, I'm a champion for minor factions and locally grown potatoes ;) , I really love the localized news reports that show up under the traffic reports. All the little gazettes and dailys reporting on who the movers and shakers are in a system and why really adds a delicate touch.

It is like we have local affiliates (the Station Services newsfeed) and national broadcasters (the big GalNet interface).
