Easier and more plentiful Materials! I'm going to hold off on my search for Polonium...

Any clues as to when the next patch is s scheduled to be released?

Nvm.
End of the month, maybe start of the next.

So maybe early September then.

As well as the newsletter, the UP and map discovery has made the BBC news

That's pretty good publicity, I wonder how many former Elite players who haven't gamed for years will see that?

Based on the news letter "This point release is still being finalised and we’re hoping to give more details on the exact date in the next couple of weeks.", be ready for a 3-4 week 'hold off'. I've already been holding off due to the upcoming patch and weapon/eng DPS bug for two weeks.

It's all good though. Witcher 3 rocks!

Indeed. It was a BBC news article that alerted me to the ED Kickstarter in 2012.

I think I'll keep going for Elite in Trading. 14% and counting.

Some will see that news clip and think it REAL! Just like the Orsen Wells Spoof of H.G. Wells's "War Of The World" back in 1938.

Ive been thinking. Most people seem to assume that the UA's are Thargoid, mainly as they have been then only other space based race in the elite universe. But what if it is a new race because FDev want to throw a curveball, what if we end up having to team up with the thargoids to deal with this new race?
