So, did the boat sink?

By KILODEN, in X-Wing

I know this is going to sound like I am whining. Because I am.

When the hell is wave 5 getting here?

Seriously?

I wander if the fish in finding Nemo is navigating that boat. you know, the blue one played by Ellen. I think its name was Dori.

It's been a bit over 3 weeks since they were put on the boat, Friday will be the end of week 4 . It takes 4-6 weeks for it to make it here once it's been put on the boat.

I'm still waiting for Rebel Aces in the UK

Wave 5 hasn't been on the boat for NEARLY the time Rebel Aces was..... I think Wave 5 could stay on the boat for 3 more months and it would still seem faster than Rebel Aces!

Still paddling, send preworkout and cheeseburgers please

9/19 was the first report of Wave 5 being on the boat. (the Upcoming page says 10/2 because that's when the Expected By date was changed to Q4)

That estimates landfall and shipping to distributors around the 1st week of November. Hopefully in our hands in the 2nd or 3rd week of November, max.

Honestly, this boat so far hasn't been that slow, however each day feels like forever, as I want my decimator much more then I want some scum, so the wait might simply feel like forever. Though at least, mostly, the Reb Aces are around. ( I have mine ) so I guess that is something.

Just keep swimming.

Just keep swimming.

Just keep swimming.

Its petty, but I'm annoyed by this because several folks in the local area got Wave 5 at GenCon and its frustrating waiting on it while seeing it on the table. :P I'm generally used to shorter delays between GenCon prereleases and normal releases. I guess next year I'll work harder to get some stuff early.

Everyone knows the boat used is designed the same way the Flintstones's car was

when are we going to get another release announcement, when the boat arrives and wave 5 is in our hands? I am hoping the next release involves the Tie Advanced fix tease .....

:)

And, for the first time, I appear to be satiated. I actually hope there are no more standard game release announcements until after Scum hits. I don't mind if we hear about the next wave of epic, but I could do with a break. I literally never thought I'd get hit with overload, but with trying to figure out RA, and the bomb that is Scum coming soon..... FFG plz.

Yeah, there are two fellows in my neighborhood flying YT-2400s, because they have a hook-up with someone who went to GenCon. I'm really not all that bothered by it. I'm happy they got those ships early. Do I wish I could run over their YTs with a Decimator... yes, but, I have other things that I can still fly against them.

The thing is that I feel like I've got a decent collection, and I don't think not having the new stuff makes me impotent on the board. (My impotence comes from my lack of flying hours, of late.)

Oh, I agree, it is not a necessity, it just makes me a little sad. I want a Decimator so bad I can taste it, and this is a long wait. I don't really feel like its a power level thing, or that I'm disadvantaged, its just... frustrating.

I've not encountered this before. Generally the products I've gotten myself/seen other folks get early have been group affairs. Like, if a friend had gotten a copy of X-Com early, I'd be all sunshine and snuggles. Seeing shiny ships on the other side, especially one of my favorites makes me more Salt and Seattle Rain.

It is petty as hell, and I am a skosh ashamed by it. On the other hand, I want my bumper car/super-tank nao.

just seems like time stands still when you really want something.

its just on the edge of your reach but not quite there.

I try to use the force to grab those things just out of reach, (like none of you ever tried) but my jedi training has failed me.

Have you considered one of those toy robot arms?

You're probably right. I pre-ordered on Anazon in June and they just haven't shown up. I work too far away from an FLGS to pop in over a lunch break and I'm on duty this weekend - despite working in the same town as Esdevium Games!

I guess I'll have to resort to "everything comes to he who waits".

I want my wave 6 lol.

Relax, you will get your Wave 5 ships quicker than you can get Wave 1 ships.

I wish wave 5 and Rebel Aces could switch places. Really, FFG just give us the ships! It can't be that hard. Just give the boat rocket engines or something.
