WTF FFG?

By KILODEN, in X-Wing

the raider was listed as on the boat last month.

just checked upcoming page. now its showing on the boat 7/27?

what the heck?

did the boat sink, was it not really on the boat?

this is the second time this update page has messed with the raider.

or was this supposed to be moved to shipping and only the date got changed and not the status? I hope so, because that's some low BLEEP if you ask me. we are all getting hyped up as we know the raider has been on ship for about a month now, so the end of august was a possibility, but now.........not right man, not right.

Its very likely that page or something else behind the curtain was updated and it simply changed the date on the front.. Doesn't necessarily mean the boat just left today. (hoping)

Oh my God, you've uncovered a vast conspiracy to conceal false shipping schedules designed to produce unwarranted hype in the community.

Let us all burn our miniatures in disgust, and never ever again frequent these forums. I'm right behind you!*

*Yeah, not really.

You mean to tell me that poor soul is still paddling?

crossing my fingers

It gets here when it gets here - it's a courtesy that they even have that page

"complaining about it won't solve anything.....oh - switch off!"

the boat disappeared? no boat that small has a cloaking device

well, there's no "small" about it, sir!

Captain! Lord Vader demands an update on the shipment!

....get the shuttle ready. By the time Vader gets here, we'll be on the other side of the galaxy.

Vader probably choked out the captain for his incompetence and now it circles the Bermuda Triangle with a set of Grey's flipping him the bird while they sip tequila sunrises on the deck. Way to go sith lord...way to go

Maybe I should point out something. This is a GAME. Relax, enjoy the suspense. Start a pool with friends on the arrival date. Buy an extra corvette or how about two more HWK 290s?

Back in Wave 3, we determined that "The Boat" is a Lambda Class Shuttle without Engine Upgrades.

It is therefore very slow.

... and the captain is stressed from making 0 red maneuvers. :-)

I'm going to blame Somalian Pirates, the Pirates of the Caribbean or the Pirates of Panzance. It was definitely one of them. My friend has fast internet and calls himself a pirate .. so I consider myself an authority on the matter.

Or the Binayre?

No .. on the grounds that I keep mis-pronouncing it. I call it a 'Binary' pirate .. but if that was the case its movement dial would be limited to 1s and 0s.

I'm thinking that it won't be till around the middle of September before we see the Raider.

The upcoming page appears to be intentionally vague.

It's probably a good thing. If they listed a date like video games then and then had to constantly push it back, it would be far more frustrating.

Things they have to deal with

- Licensor approval

- Manufacturing issues

- Shipping delays

- A ton of other stuff but those seem to be the big three problems that would cause the most delay

The boat was hit by a proton torpedo.

attached to the torpedo was a note reading: "see, they are effective!".

Or the boat keeps getting ionized... and is not pointing in the right direction...

To be fair it's loaded with ion bombs and connor nets.

the point I was making was months ago the raider was placed on the boat, then moved back to in production, then moved to on the boat again last month, then on the boat again 2 days ago. if something is physically somewhere, how does it magically end up further back than it was?

wait a second, I get it now. it was on the boat months ago, but the needed to fix something, so when it hit the boat last month it was actually the boat back to china. now its on the boat back here. I get it now.

That might be true. There were some rumors the delay was to fix a production issue. There were some rumors as well that it's been awaiting final licensor approval.

Actually, you're not far off the truth. The Binayre Pirates were Kath Scarlett's band. The name comes from their homeworlds - the twin planets of Talus and Tralus, hence, binary.
