We’ve heard from you that Components feel like nothing more than stat modifiers. With that in mind, we’re also experimenting with a new Artifacts system to replace them. Artifacts are pieces of super powered tech that set your Javelin and Freelancer apart. Each Javelin type would have a distinct Artifact catering towards its class fantasy. For instance, your Ranger’s rocket pod would be upgraded into the Skyfell Launcher Artifact, a pair of back-mounted pods that transform into powerful rocket launchers.
These Artifacts would change in appearance, depending on what parts you equip. There’s also an opportunity to allow for more interesting decision making. The parts you equip would contribute to a powerful passive ability generated by the Artifact.

The original Oculus Quest was the top-selling VR headset of Q3 2020, and sales are set to jump with the launch of the Quest 2. The device sold 161K units in Q3, though that number would have been higher if retailers had not run out of stock partway through the quarter as Facebook prepared to launch the Quest 2. Pent up demand, a lower price and holiday season gift-giving are all set to push Quest 2 sales up dramatically over the original at launch. Also, with Facebook now discontinuing the Rift S, many potential buyers of Oculus PC headsets are expected to shift over to the Quest 2. 2021 sales for the device are now expected to reach 3.0M, up from a prior estimate of 2.6M.Continue here to read the full story.

Today, October 28, 2020, I officially defeated Twin Galaxies in court in its misguided attempts to prevent me from having my day in court on my defamation claims. On March 30, 2020, 20 galaxies filed an anti-SLAPP motion against me, alleging that my defamation lawsuit was a "Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation" meant to silence freedom of speech. To defeat the anti-SLAPP motion, I needed to prove that I had a "probability" of winning my lawsuit and hence that it should be heard in court by a jury. I did exactly that.Continue here to read the full story.
