Is it right to report on poor service from gaming companies?I think it is. Interestingly, the recent articles I ran discussing the delay in Kickstarter bonuses for Elite Dangerous and data corruption bugs were very badly received on Reddit.

Elite Dangerous: Frontier Customer Action Group formed due to missing kickstarter bonusesIn a thread started by Commander Altrea Olsen (forum name Flecha bis) dated 27th November 2014, the question of kickstarter rewards was raised. In that initial post the player stated that they had not received the kickstarter decal, paintjob or choice of kickstarter beginner system. There the player stated that they had raised a support ticket. In answer, Moderator Aleksej advised that the player should contact Ashley Barley or Edward Lewis (the Community Manager) for further information.

Ship and Space fun. Awesome.

EveOnline Archives: The ISK Bucket - the complete seriesThe ISK Bucket Way back in 2011 we produced an audio drama as a value add to the podcast in a short series of episodes and here it is for your aural pleasure! Set in the Eve Online universe the premise was simple. As a pod pilot you are meant to be in sole command of a ship however as the ship are reputed to also have crew we took this a step further and imagined what a hidden crew might be doing while a new pilot was learning the ropes.

Artemis Spaceship Bridge Simulator - Client update 2.1.5 and the War ServerYou may recall way back in July of 2014 and episode four of our podcast we had an interview with Brian Johnson, the Community Manager for Artemis. In that he mentioned the War Server. This is to allow a more strategic game play mode where you capture sectors of space. Well, Thom Robertson has recently announced that the War Server is now available, as is an upgrade for the client to version 2.1.5. 1) set up your bridge computers like normal.
