SURE!

:D

1:30 PM PST......that means 4:30 EST for me. Well, it starts during my commute home. I won't get a chance to hear anything until much later tonight.

I don't suppose this will be streamed, too?

Who knows.

There are a few forum regulars in attendance. You should link their Twitter feeds in the first post and make this the(final) official thread about any announcements today.

It's a panel on game design featuring no one from the X-wing Team, but if there were going to be any sort of X-wing news out of Celebration it'd be there. I just wouldn't get my hopes up.

I don't think it was X wing people that have the talk at gencon that announced scum either.

That was Christian Petersen, Fantasy Flight's CEO--who also isn't on the Celebration panel, if I remember correctly. I'm in the "don't get your hopes up" camp, although I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

Rogue Shadow or bust, gentlemen.

It's being tweeted by team covenant if no one is streaming it.

What percentage of this is just wishful thinking?

anyone wanna put odds on a wave 7 announcement?

For UK-based X-Wingers... this will be 9:30pm tonight. I really can't believe they won't make an announcement this weekend. It's been a long, long time and this is a really good opportunity for them to do it.

when was wave 6 announced?
if we don't get an X-wing announcement I will start to doubt the future of this game. This is the only Star Wars product that hasn't had a new product announcement in months.

I'm also in that camp, but not because I don't expect anything... but rather I've fallen in love with Armada and just am not as hyped about X-Wing anymore. Still like the game and all, but I've settled into a comfortable state and as far as I'm concerned they can wait as long as they want.

I do think it's logical to expect some Episode 7 stuff at some point, and if they delay Wave 7 for another few months, then we might expect to see the Episode 7 X-Wings and TIEs as early as wave 8... which would be pretty cool!

Wave VI (Scum & Villainy) was announced August 14, 2014.

The Raider was announced December 19, 2014.

Guys, calm your sphincters. If there's no news today, remember that May 4th is on a Monday, and just around the corner.

Why? We already know Wave 7 is done with design as of a month or two ago, and that they're working on wrapping up Wave 8. They just haven't announced any of it yet. They're likely just trying to not leave so much space between announcement and release anymore.

Didn't they basically go out and say "Hey, guys, there's gonna be X-wing news at the celebration"?

Who are 'they'?

Rogue Shadow or bust, gentlemen.

Would you bet a small based ship on that outcome?
