Back in the old days I used to look very forward to the weekly Frontier newsletters for one specific reason: the Sneak Peak of the Week. This was a section of the newsletter which often contained behind the scenes pictures of new things in development for Elite; stuff like future ships, new bases or starports, or even just random closeups of something shadowy or unrecognizable, but always something slated to come to the game down the road, something in development. Sometimes they were accompanied by a paragraph or two of a dev blurb, sometimes they were much more mysterious, but they were always interesting to see and often sparked great discussion about things to look forward to in Elite.
This is why I’d like to see the sneak peak of the week return: to give the community hope that Elite’s future is bright, to satiate the desperate hunger that players have been feeling lately due to so much silence by Frontier on the direction of the game. To bring regular positive discussions back to the community, and to give players enough confidence to continue sticking with the game and to keep buying DLC from the Elite Store. And also to make the newsletters great again! Or better at least!
It would be a great step towards improving communication between Frontier and the players. Maybe by learning and returning to what worked in the past we can all improve the future of the franchise?
