Dear FFG: Stop Listening To Our Whining About Fixes

By TheJrade, in X-Wing

My birthday was 2 weeks ago and I can remember if I'm 31 32 or 33. 13 would be good had no loans to pay back then

My advice is to report and move on. He wins if you engage.

I would really like to report antisocial behaviour like this, i just don't know how to qualify it precisely in my report...

I've seen this suggestion regarding the Target Lock for ATC being spent elsewhere. I must say I don't see that being a good idea. It costs five points, remember (it's only cheaper on the TIE Advance because that ship is overpriced to begin with), so it should be extremely useful. If it cost you one action every turn to use it I think it would suffer the same fate as ordnance - people wouldn't think it was worth the points.

But if they didn't read my posts we'd not have a third faction, if I hadn't been saying tie advanced need a title to add a third attack they'd still suck.

If I hadn't moaned there would be no autothrusters.

The truth is you need me on these forums or the devs won't know what to do!

many of us are 13 years old.

Actually I have seen numerous polls about age of players online and every one of them had a very small percentage 15 and under - there are not that many 13 year old players. Most players are between 25-35 iirc.

40 here.

I'm not too old... am I?

Now get off my lawn!! :P

You are too old.

Just not too old to play with toy spaceships and make pewpewpewBOOM noises.

Knew it. It's all part of Hobojebus's secret plan to activate the mind control rays hidden in every TIE advanced model. The only cure is a tin-foil Falcon! :P

Ironic

A child whining about other "kids"

I say go back to your 40k

Don't need fools like this around here

Irony.. starting a thread about not giving into the whiners.. then beg for a new fix..

Sounds like you're spoiling for a flame war.. I hope the mods shut this down...

We should take betts to see how long before this get's locked. :D

Bah who cares! The emperor demands a flame war! Engage! ENGAGE! :D

Sauerkraut and sausage anybody? No? :lol:

Sauerkraut and mustard on a hot dog? Throw in a cold beer and a hockey game and I'm there!

You had me at the hockey game.

I disagreed with both the tone and content of your post, with the exception of this bit here:

P.S. Please make Advanced Targeting Computer spend the Target Lock when it activates.

I think the ATC would have been better this way, in terms of game balance. But if the fix has been announced it's too late to make major changes, and in any case I'm not sure it will make a huge difference in practice: the ship still typically has to spend an action acquiring a lock in the first place, and the ATC also has to compete meaningfully with the Accuracy Corrector. So even if they did overcorrect, I don't think the consequences will be terribly dire.

...you get into the real things like bacon-topped chocolate chip cookies with sweet butter or bacon-topped sushi roll with eel and tempura. It's amazing.

I suggest you seek professional help with your addiction. It's not too late.

Yes okay, but report for what? Can you qualify this as trolling? It sure gets close...

Spam, insulting other forum members, off topic, trolling.

Really this topic alone isn't that big of an issue,but OP has been showing similar behaviour in other threads and it has culminated with this.

Going into threads devoted to bumping the less competitive ships to competitive status and telling them to stop whining is bad manners.

Startimg a thread to call them all children is trolling and not acceptable behavior.

I disagree: the current ATC setup is both thematic (stay on the leader!), a more interesting gameplay mechanic than spending it and appropriate in power level. It's balanced by the TIE advanced's dial: staying on target is much harder than it seems. Vader can manage fairly easily but generics struggle (hence people considering Accuracy Corrector on them) and Maarek has to work at it.

Because of the intent behind this thread's original post, this topic has now been locked.
