Is it just me, or have we had no really great news for X-Wing in over a month?

By KILODEN, in X-Wing

Maybe the technology wizards around the forum can start poking at URLs trying to find Juno Eclipse's PNG spoiler image.

I don't care when the Raider is released - I just want to know what the new kid on the block can do.

My opinion of s there starving c-wing news so ppl go out and buy armada

Hey worked on me, I dont blame em.

We haven't had new spoilers since the announcement of the Raider, so none at all this year....

Last spoiler was the Aggressor mid-January actually, but ya still!

Yeah, that's right. And before that, the Scyk on the 29th of December. It's still 2 months since the last important announcement.

Gotta love the ttude of "I don't like this conversation so I want it locked." Seriously grow up and don't click the link if it doesn't interest you.

I truly and sincerely hope this thread gets locked.

I am happy to assist.

You religious beliefs or lack thereof are misinformed and you are lesser for holding to them. Or refusing to, if you're an atheist.

Your political opinions are likewise poorly considered and ignorant. Did you not see [event that was embarrassing to your favoured party]? Disgraceful. How anyone could still follow them after such a blunder is beyond me.

You don't like bacon enough.

Okay, now you shoot back until this thing turns real and boom, thread locked. Shouldn't take long.

I hastily inform you that you are an internet hobgoblin that no party should nourish with a response. Your views are laughable and I scoff at your simple-mindedness towards [subject here]. Also, your [favored familial relation of choice] is a/an [childish derogatory term].

I truly and sincerely hope this thread gets locked.

AKA "I do not like this discussion, please refrain from having this discussion"

AKA "This discussion, if you can even call it that, has been had for the past several months since before Wave 6 even was released and is still raging on. We've had quite a bit of 'inside news' so-to-speak from one of the game designers himself. Also, we just got a FAQ and Tournament Rules update to all of the Official Formats. We also have an entirely new wave of ships that just barely was released that I'm sure not everyone has playtested with enough, myself included. I still need to try my StarViper, HWK and Scyks and about a couple dozen different squads I had made before I even got my hands on my new plastic crack. Seeing as every couple of days there is a new forum thread about the same exact subject instead of, I don't know, continuing on a previous one instead of spamming the forums with the EXACT SAME DISCUSSION and that it all essentially boils down to impatience and anxiousness with no actual substance past guessing when news will drop, yes, I would love for this thread to die a quick death. Please feel free to continue the discussion in a thread that was already existing instead of making a new one every few days."

"Grow Up" doesn't really seem to hold much of an effect on a forum about playing a Star Wars Miniatures Game. Please feel free to continue the discussion that goes nowhere and then proceeds to be started again every few days, it's not like I can stop you from it.

I think FFG's IT staff took care of those loopholes.

Just in case I just tried everyone mentioned in the x1 article and all known members of Storm Squadron on Wookieepedia... no luck :(

Tomorrow.

Great. Now I've got songs from Annie stuck in my head...

It's only a day away!

Shortly after May 1st will be the next big announcement is my prediction. That is when the next trailer for episode VII comes out with The Avengers. Till then hopefully we will get an update on the Raider. Something should be able to have a early release at GenCon like the Outrider did.

OH MY GOD 1 MONTH. WHAT TO DO?

How about just playing the game, we just got a whole new faction released a month ago.

FFG is trying to generate hype for Armada, they don't want to distract people from buying that game while it's still fresh on the shelf. Expect to wait a few more weeks after the Aramda release for any X-Wing news. We told you Armada would be bad for X-Wing players.

We did just get a huge update to the FAQ and Tourney Rules that has fundamentally changed the way the game is played. A lot of people still haven't wrapped their heads around what 3 obstacles to bring with their lists and how the new Phantom is going to fit into the metagame, let alone all the updates to the FAQ. We'll just have to enjoy the new FAQ and Phantom while we wait for Gencon and May.

Arghhhhh screw you ffg I'm never buying your products again!

*goes and buys hundreds of more dollars of toys to satiate self

I'm in the camp of just wanting more Raider info. It's been quite a while since it was announced, we usually know more about ships by now. Save wave 7 announcement for after we know more about that.

Star wars celebration is in 2 weeks and i would be very surprised if FFG didnt have any announcement planned for then.

I wont MAKE your mouse click on a topic you are tired of reading about.

everyone please witness that I, as of this moment, relinquish control of all of your computers and will no longer make them click on things you don't want to read.............

If they do choose to click on it, you are still going to force them to type a reply and continue to inflame a thread they wish to die, though, right?

I will never understand the argument of I just got my new ships so I don't want to any more announcements. Or I still haven't figured out my current ships so I don't want to worry about the new one's.

I'd be happy to see a new announcement, but I always have stuff to do--ships or builds or strategies I haven't played with yet. So I'm never really jonesing for what's next, the way some people here seem to*.

(*That's intended as a judgment. I just don't get it.)

I'm down with the current state of affairs. Besides, it's nice to want.

FFG can't satisfy the crackheads, so they may as well spread out the news. For me, I'm avoiding all details regarding the new star wars movie, because it's nice to want and I'll enjoy the movie more.

i am frothing at the bit.

My guess is Force Awaken stuff, hence the delay.

Reason #1: They said they got brought in early to work on TFA stuff by Lucasfilm.

Reason #2: They said Wave 7 is done and they're working on Wave 8.

Reason #3: The big marketing and product blitz for TFA is September which would be an early preview (maybe) at GenCon and retail release in Sept.

Reason #4: FFG presentation at Celebration so probably had to wait until more official info dropped.

Man I just need one more to get me thought the day then I'm done with x-wing news for good. I promise I'll go to my Miniatures Anonymous meeting on Tuesday I just need a fix.
