While its shorter than I'd like, it had some decent snippets in it.
New 12th Power, BGS / gov type uncoupled, uncapped influence etc were nice to know. But to be honest its less than a month away now.
Also wait until tomorrow for the written thread which has more answers (according to FD).

Ah, that's nice. I cannot imagine the frustration for BGS players discovering someone is trying to flip their system because of powerplay which they are not involved in and don't care about.
The "Open Only" dreams smashed...
"Not at launch" is FD speak for never, going by the other stuff that was "Not at launch"
I suppose they wanted more than a couple of hundred players doing PP 2.0

Oh Rubbery one! Weren't they meant to answer the questions we posed on this livestream? Did they? I had to leave for an hour just as the Planetcoaster 2 part was ending so missed all of the ED stuff.
They answered some but it was a bit quickfire. They'll be posting a written thread tomorrow /soon with more answers as well.
Gah.
They said the exact same response in the last PP V2 deep dive -they'll be seeing how things go. Remenber how many updates it took to get the Thargoids right? To me it suggests FD are at least considering weighting (but not Open).The "Open Only" dreams smashed...

And that PP NPCs might finally attack rivals on sight. Lets hope they have lasers this time 
That was not "a lot" but we still had some answers.
They mentioned Powerplay contacts.
More activities will affect Powerplay (and even on foot gameplay!).
A new Power is coming.
They will monitor for Powers to be kicked out of the game, I guess this means that they will monitor if there's conditions for new Powers in the future too.
They made official that governments will not be linked to Powerplay, which is REALLY big.
They said that we will have a conversion from PP1 to PP2.
They mentioned Powerplay modules but they sadly did not clarify if they will stay as they are (linked to the powers).

I hope they do weight PP 2.0 specifically, not letting it influence the game in general.
They can make PP 2.0 NPCs behave as if Reavers were as civilised as the modern Japanese, provided it only affects PP.
The big question is: will Kaine be a thirst rival to Aisling?
As long as a station they are alongside of does not open fire with them, I'll be fine with that.And that PP NPCs might finally attack rivals on sight. Lets hope they have lasers this time
(Although I don't actually participate in powerplay and instead just have a pledge on RP grounds right now.)
The real question is: will Powers from the same Superpower finally be if not enemies at least rivals?
If what I gleaned from one inference, PP 2.0 is going to shake up the current stalemete, which I'm sure PP 2.0 players will find interesting... Possibly infuriating...
See the King rise, that would be fun!
Really hope they reconsider resetting everyone's pledges
I think its really because the new system works so differently IMO.
