Why am I getting so angry about the lack of wave 3 news

By Funk Fu master, in Star Wars: Armada

Maybe you're just hangry, have a snickers.

that was my joke from another one of these threads!

I actually think that they are working on wave 4 right now. Don't believe me, go find the GenCon interview

While I do believe you, I find it interesting that you have made an assertion and then tell others to go find the proof. lol

Were you expecting him to provide an APA-formatted citation?

A link to substantiate would probably be fine....

Google searches are simple and easy but I will humor you. [...]

It's not for humoring me whatsoever...

If you are going to make an assertion, it's not unreasonable to back that assertion up. Generally speaking, you don't ask your audience to prove the point you are trying to make.

Actually I can reasonably expect that. When I feel people information they do not learn as well as if they conducted the research themselves

Good Lord, now you're both being obnoxious.

Sure, Reiryc, best practices would have had him providing the link. At the same time, he does most of his online communication on a cell phone, which makes always re-finding and providing the link fairly cumbersome. Most people could have taken the reference he did give and plenty to go on.

Lyraeus, while professionally agree with the pedagogy, you're hardly Reiryc's teacher. Please lay off the pedantry.

Now, can we get back to griping about the lack of news? That way FFG's intern moderating this forum three weeks from now can tell his supervisor that the natives are restless, who can then shrug it off and get back to work.

I still think about 2 weeks or so but I am prepared to be wrong.

I feel for you Funk Fu...I check the FFG site semi-frequently, hoping to see "anything" SW: Armada. Although, a lack of literature or announcements on FFG, does not seem to bother me as much as a lot of others.

I, for one, thank you for sharing how you feel about the status of the game. As was pointed out (again, and again, and again), you are not the only one...it seems to be...a trend?

Don't let the passive aggressive keyboard warriors get you down. Wave 3 announcements are just around the corner, just have to wait a tad longer :)

p.s. belated congrats on the Australian Nationals Championship win!

Every person teaches those that they interact with. Just like everyone manipulates those they interact with one way or another. Every one has different experiences, when one chooses not to learn from those around them the world closes off.

That may be so, but it is beside the point. The point is that you don't need to be a pedant, because being that way undermines your ability to teach effectively. (I speak from personal experience in both my capacities as a student and an instructor.) Besides - what are you trying to teach him - Google use skills?

Hmmm. . . Me less pedant? Well I can try but it will be weird.

Even better: the SSD has been mentioned!

The SSD would make this game retarded. They would ask for a Death Star not followed by a star killer base.

It's pretty simple Lyr, if you make an assertion, the burden is on you to prove the assertion.

In this case, by providing a link (which you later did). The burden isn't on the reader to prove your assertions, that's your 'job'. The reader, if so inclined can choose to evaluate the evidence with which you should provide that backs your assertions.

As much as I hate the thread, I hate your stupid canned response even more. There was nothing like d-wing before for fantasy flight. Getting the entire process right was most of the battle. Manufacturing issues were huge so your simplistic arrogant response is nauseating every freaking time. It should a complete lack of business acumen. It is pizza delivery boy logic. And you're always so **** proud of it to. You frappe that idea out and love polishing it until your hands are brown. Just ignore the posts from now on.

And so it begins...again.

Thus my typical response.

I love trend analysis. While a useful business tool, it is thought at the US Intelligence Academy as a method to understand why countries, militaries and other entities do what they do. Here let me show you a trend.

X-Wing Release dates:

Wave 1 was released at GenCon in 2012, that was August 16th

Wave 2 was released on February 28th (look at that it was over 6 months) while their Kessel Run event (same thing as our Sullust event) occurred in December. Oh to help you more, They previewed Wave 2 in September 2012.

Wave 3 was released on September 13th, WOW what a long wait there! You know. . . Wave 3 was not even announced until May 4th so that was 2 months from the time of Wave 2's release

Wave 4 was not even announced until February 7th! Talk about a wait and a half!

Woah Nelly, who spat in your cider this mornin'?

C'mon mate: take five minutes, grab a latte, listen to some Enya, stare at some McQuarrie concept art, and then come back and flip on the Ignore filter. It's does marvels for one's blood pressure and works as a universal online tonic. Nothing's going to change, and hoping for it is just "the first step on the road to disappointment."

It also comes across better than, "You're a jerky jerkface know-it-all!"

lets watch the language there bud

Are we being politically correct about the word retarded now. Do you want me to say special Ed...what. A SSD is freaking stupid. Is stupid better or should I stick to idiotic?

I am more mad that they keep advertising X-wing stuff in the armada news section.

Please help me with you liberal agenda. I so want to fit in.

It's too bad that you don't like trends and facts. Yes X-Wing was the first for FFG. That's why I labeled my findings as information. Information is not facts or even close. It is a theory that so far has been pretty accurate

Sigh...

No reward is worth this

But She's Rich.

Go away troll. None of us need your special snowflake attitude. If you have nothing to provide then leave.

Oh yeah? How rich?

Being polite costs nothing, and your manners and appearance are how people first judge your worth.

I am not happy that there has been no new news or even an article on Tactics or such. I understand however that Armada is not on the main burner right now as FFG feels out where everyone is and who their market really is.

To be fair, a SSD would be very silly in this game.

Hopefully this month we'll get a bit more news on future armada releases!

DO NOT TARKIN THIS THREAD!

Or should it be Tagge as he was the Admiral who built them... (sorry, just read the Darth Vader comics)
