Max>> Guild streaming options update… Discord has added live streaming right into the client. It shares your game screen and puts you and anyone that clicks in to “view” into voice to chat. Keep an eye out for the “live” red icon in the voice channels if you want to check it out. (again note… you will be dropped into voice :) )
NOMADS
Destiny Steam transfer process from Battle.Net has begun. You must transfer your account to Steam by Oct 1st, as the game will stop being playable in BNet as of that date (and be live on Steam)

No Man’ Sky has been updated this month with to No Man’s Sky Beyond. Hello Games, the developer, has referred to it as No Man’s Sky 2.0. Most of the game systems have been updated or revamped to improve the player experience. Some of the bigger additions to the game are:
VR Support
16-32 player support on planets and stations
Multiplayer missions
Improved Base building
Player Social Hub
Dynamic NPCs
Creature Taming and Riding
Discovery UI Overhaul
Inventory improvements
Dent and Corley are currently searching for a planet that can be used for a community planet where players can build bases, trade, and help each other out in the game. If you played No Man’s Sky when the game first came out, but were disappointed, give it a try now. You might find that things that you didn’t like, have been improved or updated. Post in the Nomads channel if you want to join up in game.
Max>> I played the update some last weekend and can comment if useful.

Gustytail and friends will form groups to queue for the Trial, where you are given a theme and have mere minutes to select the best outfit from every item you’ve equipped… ever. Then we take turns voting on whose turned out best. Being in a Guild group gives us the chance to help everyone get top honors while still having a great time. We’ll run Sat, Aug 31 from 4-6 pm eastern and Sun, Sept 1 from 10 to 11:30pm eastern and again on Tues, Sept 3 from 8-11pm eastern. I will do additional runs if there’s interest. Let’s get out there and be Fabulous!
