A fool's appeal to the creator

By BlueMusketeer28, in X-Wing

Dear FFG,

I absolutely love X-Wing and you have taken far more of my money than I would readily admit. There is something I need to ask you for though. The new T-65 and perhaps a Y-Wing. Look at your forums, your fans want it, you'll sell them to tournament, epic, and casual players alike, and it is linked to a new film. There won't be a better time, and I am sure there is a demand, so just do it, for all of us. We will happily repay you with our hard earned cash.

Thanks,

Blue

Yes. Make this. And a Gunboat. That is all.

Missed the boat with the new film bit unless they are already in development.

There is a substantial 'lead time' on making new product, even with rapid prototyping/having an exisitng model, you've still got to design the things, playtest them, get the cardstock printed.. sort out the packaging.

You're looking at *months* from concept to shelves. And thats assuming 'instant shipping'/

For the last film they did two immediate ship packs and followed up with a major combo pack that was announced shortly after the other two came out.

I expect much the same thing with this one: U-Wing and TIE Striker to lead up to the film, and Rebel Veterans to follow it up (with new X- and Y-Wing pilots).

Thats what i mean, if its going to happen they'd have started work on it by now...

About time we have another "T-65 fix" thread...

There is still the mystery SWX58! :rolleyes:

You realize they already repackaged X and Y already right? Transport has new xwings and "fixes" for both ships, healing via focus for shield droid for ywings and EPT slot droid. Most wanted introduced a new title and turret for ywings. Ewing, t70, TFA core, Heroes and Arc all have new droids included in their expansions that help X and Y. Kwings and the Ghost expansion added two more turrets to be used with the ywing. After all that people still crave more, I don't understand.

The only (Rebel) Y-wing really worth using is a TLT Gold Squadron, because it's super cheap and decently effective. People want to actually use it for more than that. Same with the X-wing. The only X-wings you see are Biggs and maybe Wes, both of which are because of their really good pilot abilities. The ship itself is mediocre at best. X and Y-wings are two of the most iconic Star Wars ships. People actually want to be able to fly them.

People still play this game? Why?

If you want to fly something, fly it! Take Porkins for a fly! Let the fear of shooting Tarn infect your enemies! To boil all ships down to point efficiency and damage output is, to be honest, boring! Put some bombs and torpedoes on your ywings and MAKE it work.

You're limiting yourself and the game you play by not having fun and complaining about what is WORTH flying.

This comment is meant in the best spirit but here's the thing, I do fly them. Hobbie, Wedge, Luke, Dutch, Keyan, Horton, Ibtisam, Abhat, every one of them are regulars at my table, fighting ARCs and Defenders and Protectorates and Outriders and Interceptors. You name it they've shot it down. It's just frustrating to be flying a ship and be able to think to yourself how much better it could be if you took Poe or Corran, or not the X-Wing at all. That's why we crave more, the ships still aren't doing enough for what they are. In my opinion the Y-Wing is much better in most regards, but the X-Wing, my mainstay by a long shot, Wedge as my go to, but he just can't keep up with Ryad unless I'm flying really well or Ryad goofs. Same with Soontir, it's a nightmare to keep up with him. Especially when I know other ships which can.
