Creating realistic looking long hair that behaves credibly both in normal gravity and in zero g, would take a lot of time and resources that we felt were better spent elsewhere. That said we would like to add further styles in future releases that convey pinned-up hair, or long hair tied back. – SourceEdward Lewis, Senior Community Manager

New Ancient Sites

Again and again the Ancient Sites! They finally unveiled all their secrets… well, a very large part.

Since the engineer Ram Tah was able to develop his technology to recognize the Guardians’ sites, the galactic community has been able to efficiently scan many systems and discover new ruins. If a system is scanned, the ancient sites will be revealed over 1000 light-seconds in the vicinity. These will appear in our navigation panel as a point of interest. A Charlie site (Gamma) was discovered at ~12,000 light years from the SOL bubble.

The plot remains extremely exciting as it continues to grow:

  • Complete Guardians knowledge base, Tech, History, Language, Biology and Culture;
  • Collect the Ancient Sites’ data. Made easy with our guide if you are in a group of 4 players or more in the same instance, but the difficulty is much greater if you are alone. You will have to visit more sites in order to collect the data. Good luck!

◘ 13 February – Since the Synuefe ruins were discovered in October, hundreds of explorers, archaeologists and relic hunters have scoured the site for information about the race that created it. When engineer Ram Tah started researching the ruins, hundreds more joined the search, motivated either by a thirst for knowledge or by the promise of reward. Now, Ram Tah claims to have made a significant breakthrough. In a statement, he said:

“Thanks to the hard work of many dedicated pilots – and in particular Commander Noodlz05 and his wingmates – I have isolated a signal in the Guardians’ monolith network that will allow scanners to identify sites within 1,000 light seconds. This should make finding further Guardian ruins considerably easier. I would like to thank all those involved for their help. This was not an easy task, but together we have learned a great deal about the Guardians’ fascinating culture.”

◘ 16 February – Recent reports indicate that a Federal convoy has been destroyed in the Sutekh system. It is not yet clear who is responsible for the attack, but security agencies based in Sutekh have tentatively identified the Adad Exchange, an Imperial faction. The Adad Exchange is also understood to have launched an operation to recover military intelligence from the wreckage. The Federation has responded with a counter-operation designed to prevent the intelligence from falling into Imperial hands. The United Sutekh Future has been authorised to coordinate the campaign.

◘ 17 February – Audit records from the MetaDrive Inc., acquired by the Sirius Corporation last year, have been leaked into public data silos by persons unknown. While the majority of the data is unremarkable, one record mentions ‘wake suppression’, prompting some commentators to speculate on a possible connection to MetaDrive’s work on hyperdrive systems. A spokesperson for the Sirius Corporation responded by saying:

“We do not typically comment on leaks of this nature, but we can certainly allay any fears that the Sirius Corporation is conducting experimental hyperdrive research. The document in question simply refers to research into sleep-management technology for long-haul travel.”
