Star Wars friday update?

By Hidatom, in X-Wing

For some reason I thought Friday was Star Wars product news?

I believe it's Monday? Possibly every second one?

UPDATE!! Star Wars has been awesome for 30 years, and still is!! Woah!!!!

haha, sorry, couldn't resist. Reminds me of the Tourette's Guy: Bigfoot updates. To answer your question, isn't it mondays? I always remember seeing spoiler articles on mondays (for X-Wing, anyway)

They may be sitting on a couple announcements until Most Wanted gets in our hands. With the shipping delays, who knows what will happen.

I do think they alternate between Mondays and Fridays. Also, I've noticed that it's not necessarily posted first thing in the morning (and living in PDT, my first thing in the morning is not that early for most people).

The only Friday news I recall for Star Wars were the playmats and Raider, and the mat was just announced last week.

Would be great to get that FAQ update, though, especially with stories of Scum hitting in Australia and Europe.

X-Wing is not the only Star Wars. The most recent substantive Armada update was on a Friday two weeks ago, as was the one before that - two weeks before that, and the one three weeks before that was also on a Friday.

Fridays are good for Armada.

And now my hopes are up....

Considering the Calculation upgrade was "spoiled" last week, I'm surprised there hasn't been an article released yet.

So JJ wants to move the release of EP7 to

Summer to avoid leaks and spoliers

Best news I got.

True. Maybe we'll see the Armada fighter upgrade? Would be nice as I don't speak German, so that unboxing video is useless for me. :(

I think that video was useless regardless of your mastery of German. There wasn't anything there, except a sense of scale for the box - which is bigger than I thought it would be.

There is no rhyme or reason behind the days. I just looked at the dates for the last 5 months...

There have been 5 Fridays, 6 Mondays, 3 Tuesday sand 3 Wednesdays that news has been posted on. It's also not every other week, or alternating weeks.

In November there were posts on the 26th, 24th, 11th and 10th for example.

Don't rain on my hopes, man! :(

I imagine that the people working on the content of the X-Wing marketing are different than those working on that for Armada, and certainly different from those working on the other SW games. They're probably given form by the same webmaster crew though.

So, did you separate it out by game and by type of news release? Sure, certain announcements (dice, tournaments, maneuver doohickey) come at haphazard moments, but the spoilers seem to have some regularity to them.

Give it up already. News hits at random times. You are not entitled to anything from FFG until they are ready to share it.

Same here, they do switch it up.

:ph34r:

I (We) still look just in case... but yeah they have been doing alternating postings.

It's all X-Wing. I didn't pay attention to what the article was about. But clearly they don't have any sort of set schedule for when they post things. Most likely they just post them when they're ready.

I think the complete lack of news as of this writing is clear proof that we're getting a Death Star set that will be usable for both X-Wing and Armada.

I'm desperately hoping they're too busy sorting S&V for shipping to post an update.

One of these days I'm going to pull up the dates/days on all the X-Wing announcements to prove to you guys there is practically no rhyme or reason to when we get announcements.

what? I asked the community a question. I never acted entitled.
