Hi,

Is there a chance that we can vote for next ships in X-wing?

For example I would love to have Darth Maul in his Sith Infiltrator with cloak!

How and where to ask the right person about this?

I believe it can be posted in the same thread as the request / vote for the Assault Gunboat

Welcome to the forums by the way. There have been many ship requests/votes on the board but FFG's magic selection criteria is unkown to us. Feel free to look around, but you won't find a formal area to do so.

Letting a small but loud part of the customer base make critical decisions is not a great plan. And like it or not, this forum is a just that.

The forum is a vocal minority or a vocal minority that makes critical decisions?

Because the mobile arc has been a dream of mine since wave freaking 5 but I somehow doubt I had anything to do with it

Considering the length of time it takes to produce an expansion, it is really unfeasible. I'm sure they are putting the finishing touches on Wave XI right now.

Hi welcome to the forum.

Everyone has their personal favorites so your idea is a good one. Some really, really like EU stuff, but FFG seems to be moving more in the direction of cannon material. Earlier they has said they were not going to produce Prequel ships. The ARC-170 is kind of on the edge, Some have suggested that it appeared in the animated series Rebels, I don't know. I like prefer cannon material but also like my favorite EU, the TIE Defender.

If it wasn't for EU we might not have enough for variety right now. But now that we do questions like yours are good.

If you're asking me. I think we have plenty of ships now. An occasional one from upcoming movies would be nice from time to time. I would prefer to see missions, campaigns, prebuilt and prepainted turrets, asteroids, space mines, space docks, asteroid bases, etc...

P.S. don't believe the hype about everything needing a fix, things broken or over-powered. While it is true that some ships many not have the micro-efficiency to be top tier competitive on the tournament scene and many here are very vocal about tournament level micro-balance. Regardless the game can be great for most casual players and as always, Star Wars is fun.

[Edit: P.S. my vote was in the above for asteroids, bases and such]

The Sith Infiltrator will likely be large base, in which case I just can't imagine it having the cloaking action. I suppose it's possible to squeeze it down to a small base, but the Aggressor ( IG-2000 ) is supposedly 20 meters and sits on a large base while the Scimitar (Sith Infiltrator) is 26 meters. It could happen, but I think they would have to make new rules for how large bases decloak, probably by using 1-templates instead of 2-templates.

I add my vote to this!

If he was undercover FFG he didn't need a poll to know the most requested ship.

Posted at 2016-08-11 17:00:49+00:00

Maybe- YOU! (gasps)... are the undercover FFG!? (cue dramatic music).

Well, people's tastes change and maybe he... uh I mean, you need ideas for Wave 13.

Posted at 2016-08-11 17:39:59+00:00

Bet a million against that.

Posted at 2016-08-11 19:36:56+00:00

If I was FFG the Assault Gunboat should be released several waves before. And there would be no TIE Punisher (Missile Boat in it's place).

BTW, some people's tastes last more than 20 years...

We need a Luxury 3000 space yacht with Lando and Mara Jade pilots!

Posted at 2016-08-11 20:40:26+00:00

I'm just going to keep saying Crusader-class corvette with Zahn Consortium colors... and I'll just concede to the Star Jewel to keep the others happy... make it both, like Blockade runner and Transport

every time a company allows people to vote on line weirdos make multiple accounts to stuff the ballot box for days on end to get the thing they want to win and then it comes out and no one actually wants it

i played an online game that decided like a whole years releases that way and it died lol

Posted at 2016-08-11 22:24:25+00:00

Vote early, vote often. Heck, here in Chi-town, even the dead vote.

Posted at 2016-08-11 22:35:36+00:00

Cameo in TFA/Rebels => Inclusion next wave.

Posted at 2016-08-12 00:41:44+00:00

And yet still no Luxury 3000.

Posted at 2016-08-12 01:10:03+00:00

In order of priority:

1) Disney days so

2) FFG CEO likes the ship

3) Alex Davies likes the ship

Posted at 2016-08-12 02:22:27+00:00

I just want my vote to delete any avenger or gunboat votes.

That smell is as familiar as the **** bucket with burning tar.

After thinking about it and discussing it's possible stats with some people on the forum, I really wanna see the Raven's Claw in game. Though the U-Wing will probably take the basic niche I thought of for it.
