Elite Dangerous: Arena
The folks at Frontier took the Elite Dangerous servers down earlier today so they could apply patch 3.3.01 to the game. With this being the most recent patch after Chapter 4 was released, it is usually time to see some bugs squashed and tweaks to new features. As expected, a quick review of the patch notes (also after jump) shows updates to the Conflict Zones, Controls, VR, new ships, mining functions along with a host of server and stability fixes. Check out the entire list to get all the details prior to heading back out to space.
