  6. Tuesday – Liberum Financial Report
    1. Last week saw the PC release of Odyssey, the latest major expansion in the Elite Dangerous franchise. Although players suffered server connectivity issues in the first few days, we understand that many of those problems have now been resolved. Despite the challenges, player numbers have been relatively strong – at record levels for Elite Dangerous, as would be expected. Whilst additional concerns around game optimisation may take longer to fix, Frontier are working hard on resolving these through regular updates to ensure that players’ experience improves. We have no doubt that Elite will remain a successful multi-year franchise going forwards, as the company maintains its launch and nurture approach to creating long-lasting games. We keep our forecasts and Target Price unchanged.

Main discussion

    Cancer is shocking, overwhelming, isolating… and completely unfair. Especially when you’re young. It takes over your life. Treatment is gruelling and your ambitions and dreams – education, relationships, career, travel – suddenly seem very far away.

    We get that. That’s why CLIC Sargent fights tirelessly to stop cancer destroying young lives.
  2. Notable Stellar Phenomena (Elite Dangerous Odyssey animated parody)
    1. Yet another awesome video by The High Wake
  3. Odyssey renderer is broken – details : EliteDangerous (reddit.com)
  4. The Best Way to Farm Everything in Elite Dangerous Odyssey Materials Farming Guide
    1. By Hawkes Gaming it’s a little bit exploit (i.e. exit to menu to re-farm the instance) but a good guide. Shan’s been trying it.
