Happy Festivus - Time for the airing of the Grievances.

By Stone37, in X-Wing

And another thing...

Why do we only have two named Y-wing pilots? And, what's up with all the generic named T-70 and FO unique pilots?

cause Ties go through aces like an Amsterdam brothel goes through "protection"

Im just here for Feats of Strength.....no grievances!

No M3A fix!

No T65 fix!

1...ONE god damned IA in the T-70!

No Scum huge ship!

Generic pilot names with generic pictures! CURSE YOU!

Im really disappointed with their new/old damage deck incosistency. At first the 'new damage deck only' idea was a brilliant one - it was well reasoned, new damage deck is supposed to be THE new balanced thing. But few weeks later they change their mind again... Felt like unstable girlfriends really

Would also like weekly announcements/articles. News spam one month and then drought for two following months doesnt feel right. Would really prefer at least small articles weekly - at least i would have something to wait/expect for every week. And there would also be something to discuss every week.

Edit: HA, really similar to ViscerothSWG opinion

I'm disappointed that FFG has not attempted to wrestle with this thread!

This may be a premature grievance as the product hasn't come out yet, but...

No Extra Munitions in Imperial Veterans. Wasn't it supposed to be "the bomber fix"?

Edited by Jremy75

TLT being 1 point too cheap

IG2000 title being 1-2 points too cheap

No announcement of a Scum Epic Star Jewel with Scyk, or Rebel Veterans with X-Wing and E-Wing (and two copies of IA)

"Red Ace" and "Blue Ace" instead of Jessika Pava and Snaps Wexley

No TIE Aggressor, Skipray Blastboat, or Baudo-class Yacht for Imperials, Scum, and Rebels respectively.

Releasing ugly and/or obscure EU ships like the tie punisher and kwing before prequel ships.

Edited by markcsoul

doesn't matter how ugly they were, FFG turned them into gorgeous models :D

Better kit and local event support. FFG starved my local scene to death, because the pittance they put out in support of the lower play levels paled in comparison to Wiz Kids' Attack Wing game, **** near everyone switched over. (What's worse is they all ran away like crybabies when their TO screwed the pooch on their tourney costs).

Using art work instead of stills from Star Wars Rebels for the ships and characters from that show.

That they haven't updated or improved the mission control

Scum epic ships! And what is taking so long with wave 8?

Lack of TIE Avenger and Assault Gunboat must be fixed.

Giving Dash an entirely green dial needs to stop. While we're at it, ban the Outrider title.

FCS gives a free TL at the end of the end phase.

C-3PO can't be used to "guess" zero.

SLAM and bomb needs to change. While we're at it, allow multiple bombs to be dropped per round. Bomb meta, bring it.

Captain Kagi should intercept FCS locks, I'm paying 27 ******* points for a Lambda.

Fel's Wrath now lasts a full extra round.

Partial MoV is applied to all ships. Doing a full ship's worth of damage to a regenerating ship gives the opponent the full score for the ship even if it regenerates back to full.

Scyk title is errata'ed to cost 0 points.

Only getting one copy of Intergrated Astromech per expansion gets my vote as well.

Tie Avenger. That is all.

TLT should have been a two die attack...

Sorry, NO! Then we would still be pushing the Falcimators around in the meta. They could make it limited if it really gets that dominant. Which it hasn't!

Grievances:

- One IA in the T-70 pack. WHY FFG??

- No real fix to the T-65

- Slam and bombs not working as advertised

And most importantly

- STILL no nerf to Paul Heaver

Merry Christmas!

I wish the T-70 and the TIE/fo had been Titles instead of separate ships.

I wish the Tech slot hadn't been a thing. We didn't really need yet another upgrade slot that's functionally the same thing as systems and modifications.

I wish the Tractor Beam wasn't a Cannon.

I know right! the Tractor beam should.... BE A TRACTOR BEAM!!!!

All the T-65 wanted for Christmas was a real fix....

You know, I have to say I've got grievances with the X-wing community. It seems that too many people don't seem to actually try ships before they are dismissed. People listen to podcasts and read the forums and just declare something as "no good". They never give it a try. They don't bother to see if it actually flies for them. Maybe it's the utter lack of imagination that I tend to notice. No one bothers making up their own lists. They go for whatever is a "net list" and fly it. Even at Worlds, which was the most diverse one yet, I still see just too much of the same. Why does it seem that people try to fly a ship a couple of times and then just disregard it as being "no good"?

EDIT: Thought of a few more...

I'm sick of everything having to be PS 9! There are going to be some ships coming out that are good and not PS 9, which makes me happy. I'll be really happy when every list isn't required to have PS 9 ships in it.

Not everything needs Autothrusters! I'm sick of the basic fix for everything is to give it Autothrusters. Ugh...I'm sick of hearing about it. You can have a good ship without Autothrusters!

No EPT on Miranda.

Miranda would be broken with an EPT. Miranda is bad enough now without one. She would be stupid with one.

No T65 fix!

Umm...they already stated that there won't be just "one" fix for the T-65. Also, Integrated Astromech goes a long way. We are still waiting for the Title to come out, but you can't say that there hasn't been any fix for the T-65. Sure, not the complete package, but IA is good.

Tie Phantom nerf(dunno if it was 2015) it basically made the generics unplayable to the point i own 3 and think i should sell one off.

TLT, another secondary weapon with gives no bonuses at range and has very few drawbacks.

Starviper i want to like it but the top generic needed an EPT

More Regen for Rebels, like they needed it

I am generally pretty happy with the job FFG did this year.

But my grievances are thus-

1- unique "named" pilots without any real names (Red Ace, Epsilon Leader, etc.)

2- TLT costing 6 points instead of 7 or 8

3- failure to get wave 8 out before Christmas

1- unique "named" pilots without any real names (Red Ace, Epsilon Leader, etc.)

This wasn't FFG's fault. Besides, how many years did it take for the generic Tie Fighters in Ep IV to actually get names? Give them some time...

But that's the thing. There are hundreds of Tie Fighter pilots. IF they just made up some names, I would be far more satisfied. Perhaps Disney or someone said no to that idea, but, I mean, Whisper and Echo are totally made up, right? As is the Raider, an entire ship? I see little reason why they couldn't have just made up some call signs for these guys.
