It is 8/22. Why is 2.0 still "in development"?

By aceckert, in X-Wing

Is September 13th still the release date? They had the product at GenCon, but all the 2.0 items are still showing as "In Development". I would expect it to be at least "on the boat".

The upcoming page says whatever it wants.

Don't read too much into it.

The upcoming page is more akin to reading tea leaves than it is an actual schedule.

Sept 13 is the soft release beta testing date. It will always be "in development."

I'm not sure I like how this thread is developing...

:P

I, for one, welcome my new development overlords.

I suppose. I have taken to checking it regularly and it is fairly accurate once things are "at the printer". I have been watching the progression of latest imperial assault.

Whaaaaaa... I did not realize it was the date for a beta release. I know they had some typos in the Gencon batch, but I would have thought selling at Gencon meant it was all printed and ready to ship.

Don't listen to him, he's still grumpy about the whole second edition thing. The game has its release on 9/13.

In a startling development, sarcasm meters still have issues with text only responses. More at eleven.

Come on, it's not really that startling.

Hey, I need to score likes somehow. Need to sensationalize things a bit to get noticed.

Oh, come now! Tea leaves aren't that inaccurate.

The points could change at any time. It will always be in development.

Probably not even note worthy.

They have fooled us all - the release is really September 13th, 2019 !!!

Hence they are still featuring 1.0 prize support in the kits!

Starcraft received a patch just last month. Do you think Starcraft is still in beta?

That's just the false intel they're spreading to fool the Rebels. When 9/13 comes they'll be all like:
