How many of you are burned out?

By Jango, in X-Wing

I am burnt out on rehashed forum posts too. I don't know how many more of the following I can take:

- This meta is overpowered.
- Where are my huge imperial ships?

- The TIE Advance needs to be fixed. (regardless of how correct this comment is)

- Fat Han is overpowered.

- The sky is falling.

- Ship X / Card Y is the end of the game.

- I don't have an "I win" dial to reveal.

- Where are my Star Wars ground units?

- I bent my wookie

- FFG draining my bank account with awesome products

Yup, I'm getting pretty burnt out on it. (except the last one).

What would you like to talk about, then?

Something optimistic.

"How awesome will ___ be?"

"Isn't it great that we're getting The Outrider?"

I'd take speculation threads over this crap.

- I bent my wookie

Actually, this is a serious medical condition. Please stop reading forum posts and dial 911 now!

If you have a wookie for over four hours, seek immediate medical attention!

Or call your friends and gloat.

"Hey, Joe? Yeah, it's me. No, I just wanted to call to say I've had a wookie for over four hours now. Waddya mean I'm weird? Look man, I just--No, I just... Forget you, man. I'm going go play with my wife some more."

What would you like to talk about, then?

Breakfast food seems to be a traditional direction to take around here. But maybe instead we could also talk about our favorite (non-X-wing) toys.

For instance, as a kid I had a sock puppet I really loved.

I had a little monkey hand puppet.

I'd guess that if someone was burned out on the game, it would be unlikely that they'd be posting in a thread in this forum...

Imagine how Han feels.

Forgive me for being stupid, but I've been playing for about a month and a half, and can't keep up with the shorthand for card names and the cute nicknames for builds. What, pray tell, is "Fat Han" and why is he breaking the lovely game I have just become addicted to? I can't comment on my level of burnout if I don't know what it is I'm supposed to be burned out on.

And for the record, my wookie is unbreakable

Han Shot First has been used since Wave 2 to to mean a loaded-up version of Han with a couple of inexpensive fighters for escort. Fat Han is a related build that typically uses C-3PO and has a trio of Headhunters as its escorts--he's "fat" because he usually comes in at 60 points or so.

Is it a good list for new players?

From what I've been told, some people need all the help they can get. Especially on vassal.

I see what you did there. :D

I think I'll wait until Wave 6 hits the shelves before attempting X-wing seriously. There is so much content being released I want to wait until the dust settles a bit. The meta has been completely smashed (which is good and bad).

The options after Wave 6 will be staggering.

X-Wing is like a moving river ... it never will stop ... so you may as well jump in feet first , and drown with the rest of us ... :P

YUP...

FFG is not going to allow it to stagnate.

:D

The meta is not smashed. Tie swarms are just as good as any other list. Too many people blow things out of proportion.

The meta is smashed. You're in denial.

Like every other game, especially miniatures games and online mmo, when one or the other faction/class/what have you is over powered you will always have those that play the over powered or broken list and decry anyone that points out the imbalance as a "whiner" or someone who needs to "learn to play".

FatHan/FatChewie is the most easy mode style of play. this is not even a debate. Do Tie swarms occasionally melt it? sometimes. Well it wreck most lists it faces on average.. yes.

It's really not hard to tell Jango is Ribann. Ribann was issued a banning in August and suddenly Jango Joins the forums. Ribann ban is lifted late August and Jango goes silent. Sept 5th was the last day Ribann's account was active and Jango is back. I have had Ribann's account block since before his first banning and he'll remain there indefinitely. Jango, will now join my short list ignored members.

Wait why was he banned? Just curious. And is he still banned?

Not burned out due to lack of releases or existing number of releases, etc.

Slightly burned out because the events (Regionals, Nationals, etc.) are just too.. ****.. long.. :)

Not burned out as I don't get to play as much during the week.

I moved and I don't get to play hardly anymore at all. :(

Well,

i have to say... im... ya i guess im burned out.

But that is not the entire truth.

I also feel like the game evolved faster then i can keep up with.

Things changed, and they changed fast.

Let it be upgrade cards, new tactics or whatsoever.

I flew a Squint list actually very successful for a longer time.. more wins then losses... and well yes.. i just like to win.

Not by any means or being a **** about it but i just feel like i did something "good".

Ever since Wave 4 came out i feel like i cant get a foot in this game anymore.

To many options which can be so fatally wrong, that you lose a game in under 15minutes.

(Yes it did happen to me :P)

And i cant find my groove anymore...

I tried Defenders... Phantoms, back to my old lists....but its.. i dunno...

Then the last 4 weeks or even 5 i have dead dice...

Man i swear to god i never rolled so poorly in my life... i mean not even at Yazee...

Dude, that is demoralizing and the fun goes after a while...

I lost every single game in the last 5 weeks... i won one game but only cause we messed up.

(Wrong understanding of cards can be a gamebreaker)

Yes im sick of losing and im a sore looser as well... :P

But lately i realized... im not busy with this game anymore...

I dont reorganize every 5 minutes my boxes.. look at squad builders or try to find out the latest real news about this game.

Im just...done...

And the worst.. i do not even miss it at the moment.

Now i see at the horizon... Rebel Aces, Wave 5, Wave 6...

Well, im not excited at all...

Actually it scares me...

I already have a hard time as is to understand some onf the new things, the synergy of some of the cards.

And i could bet my collection it will not get better with 3 new releases until January 2015.

I am even a bit sad about it cause i really love that game.

But i guess i will just wait a couple of weeks and see....

Short:

Ya i think im burned out at the moment!
