death cult or something like that in the juicer uprising book

rosco60559

armorlord, I need to disagree about the good faith. lying to a group or anyone for that fact is bad. carrying that lie for 3 years is even worse.

cushionride, your post is fine. the powers that be don't really tread into the forums anyways.

rosco60559

He probably is still employed at pb. He was clearly making everyone else look bad by keeping to his schedule so had to start missing deadlines or get in trouble.

rosco60559

Sorry not interested. Instead of worrying about another open house how about the fact pb hasn't released a book since November, and sorry I don't count rifters.

rosco60559

I just don't see a ton of positive news surrounding this game any time soon.

rosco60559

Actually it's been a heck of a lot longer than you think. The last update showing ANY forward progress was March/April 2016 when they showed off some 3d renders and the small resin sdf-1 at adepticon. That's not counting the very info dry 2015 before that. Just about every update on rrt either here ...

rosco60559

Yeah, that update kinda killed anything rrt for this year for just about everyone not just backers outside the USA. Then again look at their list of rpg's that started and had promised supplements. Splicers for example came out in 2004 not a single source book released. Chaos earth was 2003 with 2 e...

rosco60559

Still not as bad after one of the "updates" which of course don't show progress and beg us to buy things that aren't even in development.

rosco60559

attempt number three.

i voted no

due to past crowdfunding issues i will not be supporting this.

good luck carmen.

rosco60559

jedi, I like where you're going with the artillery pods but I find it rough to actually want to use them. artillery implies a decent range for support in my mind. most support weapons in other games have a decent long range 36+ inches. add in they don't have many blast weapons not too much hope for ...

rosco60559

how much cover is there? is there a fair amount of hard los blocking terrain? can the pods dodge cover to cover with only losing a pod or 2?

rosco60559

for the op, money coming in for any business is good. money coming in and all you have to do is collect royalties with the occasional proof read even better. as for how much it'll help no idea. for all we know kevin might get on a high horse and not renew the deal if this is really successful or if ...

rosco60559

the problem is a quote is only good for so long. so if they got a quote now and rrt doesn't go into production in a reasonable amount of time cost goes up. I've had customers come into the shop I work at and expect quotes from over a year ago to be honored. before we take the cars back in we tell th...

rosco60559

It would have been best if they kept open and HONEST communications through this entire project. Seeing other projects have issues then tell backers what's going on, and proposed solutions have kept backers on their sides for the most part. There is no way I'm expecting anything this year. Too much ...

rosco60559

The plain old truth is nope still waiting for the re-launch. With how little of wave 2 is done I doubt anything will be done in the near future with it.

rosco60559

I'd rather see them try taking a page from gw and the data slates/downloads. Every few months release the character rule/card on that download site they've been using for say 2-5 bucks. That way you get the rrt relevant stuff instead of hoping they remembered to put it in the rifter. Definitely agre...

rosco60559

Ryder, pb ignores these forums even more than the Kickstarter site. If the unrest in here gets annoying enough the mods either pass out emails to the higher ups, lock or delete threads, delete posts. Around this time last year I asked if a mod could pass word to the powers that be and the post was d...

rosco60559

forar, the date for putting in for the adepticon events passed and kevin kept asking for someone to run a rrt tournament for a month past the cut off date. it's shaping up to miss gencon this year as well. the re-launch is clearly not happening this year. not really having much faith in it ever happ...

rosco60559

Gb, what else are backers to think? A year ago we were told we'd get info on the state of wave 2. Now for a rough example I understand being lead around for an answer if I demanded to know how much gold is actually in Fort Knox, if not told go away it's classified. The info for wave 2 should be shar...

rosco60559

so pb doesn't just call one of you guys up and say that they're looking for ideas and let you loose to do your thing very often? sounds like a waste of talent and ideas not assigning ideas and letting you guys go nuts. not to mention it could put a huge dent in that huge list of books they keep list...

rosco60559

If you only play the base scenarios from the rule book, yes you'll have enough for those mostly. If you decide you want 2 legal armies the zentradi side needs a lot more figures. You're going to find out with out some house rulings to balance things out the zentradi are also heavily out matched sinc...

rosco60559

Shawn were you a free lancer for pb at the time you did the review? Now before I get accused of anything, if they noticed you're on the payroll that might have got the flames rolling. If I'm looking for a review the best ones are usually from those whose pay does not come from the company whose prod...

rosco60559

Well, got an message on the Kickstarter site. Can't call it an update seeing as there is still zero info on wave 2. In fact it is literally just copy/paste from the weekly update. Looking through comments there are more people chiming in on the more negative side. That vocal minority keeps growing.

rosco60559

I thought that happened at gencon, the guy went through hell to try and get there and a communication breakdown happened. Then the guy was tossed under the bus and asked to step down.

rosco60559

or as hard as they're willing to try

rosco60559

Nope no news. Probably no news any time soon. Rrt wasn't even mentioned in the weekly update. The last actual update that talked about wave 2 was before adepticon 2015. Also looks like nobody wanted to run anything at adepticon 2016 for pb, event regs traction/turn in was due back in October.

rosco60559

So what makes these zombies so different? Are they magical mdc causing zombies? Nema mission book 1 and the first responders book have been "in development" for 10+ years. Why grab this book for a survival type mood/setting when that's what chaos earth all ready is over all? A big question...

rosco60559

I don't know what McDonald's you're going too but I never saw them upgrade my meal or hand over free stuff in 20 plus years. This entire situation could have been avoided if pb just informed us about the status of THIS project. Not give 2 months of "soon" that ended with a double update hi...

rosco60559

For the op and the idea he had, I only want 1 of 2 things: The wave 2 portion of my pledge The refund for my wave 2 pledge I had a 3rd thing but won't post it here. I went with a reckless pledge and have more than enough wave 1 to choke a horse and do not want more. Until either happens I want the a...

rosco60559

I think mike did the cards and jamyz was working on the site.

rosco60559

I just find it funny that 50+ percent of the vote on the kickstarter site about scale is people want wave 2 or info on it, followed by leave things at 6mm. As for this restart in communication, it's not. it is difficult to have faith or believe someone that says they're working on something when the...

rosco60559

I agree with ronekiln. As a backer I want to know where the figs are in development. The only things we've heard about wave 2 since adepticon is 5 3d renders and a release date that went from November to December with a huge maybe behind it. When a big snag in the over all plans hit share it and tel...

rosco60559

Yea that thing all ready posted on that. As for the scale change, going from 6 to 15 isn't a good thing. Maybe go to 10mm as a compromise. Then the macross stuff won't be 100% useless with the other series along with the terrain everyone has been working on.

rosco60559

All we got out of that mega awesome 3 month build up update is A history lesson A sales pitch A December 2015 release that may change Ghq does conventional vehicles Guess what we knew before the update All listed above What I know backers would have loved to see Which figures are still in the 3d ren...

rosco60559

Alpha what were you playing? What were the other armies involved?

rosco60559

For some reason I'm not placing faith in us getting actual news, just more of soon and jazz hands.

rosco60559

They could save a ton of time with updates by just saying soon.

As for progress there should be a lot more breakdowns and such to show off. They showed several wave 2 figs at various cons and such leading to gen con last year. So knowing that why not tell backers where the hold up is?

rosco60559

I think I'm going to pass on all of the figures, the rulebook is a huge maybe. Not happy having to drop cash on the new book so soon. If pb wasn't happy with the book they approved after re-writing why was it approved and printed?

rosco60559

thanks for trying to pry info out of them. problem why many are upset at the update issue is pretty simple, pb promised us pretty much a back stage pass at the start of the kickstarter in the way of communication. several times we were promised better communication and it just seems to get no better...

rosco60559

jerell thank you if you can do that. once again the fans picking up the slack. remember it's mike going out of his way to do conversion work for the ghq stuffand extra cards for whatever you can dream of for the game, and it was eric that posted the unboxing video when pb ignored the begging of back...

rosco60559

Yep the silence finally broke just to go back to it.

rosco60559

It was a huge wall of text that told us nothing. Kinda thinking the big news is not that big if there is any at all.

rosco60559

while gw probably isn't the best example according to jerell they do get things done and out.

rosco60559

Junkie, sadly I have to agree I'm expecting something so underwhelming like that. The complete lack of hints or actual build up to this huge awesome news has me looking at a book case full of pb product doing a face palm and asking myself why did I buy all of this? For 3 months since the announcemen...

rosco60559

like many here battletech has a big spot in my heart, been playing it since the late 80's/early 90's. honestly I played batteltech long before really getting into pb's games. given pb's history and they might have done an ok job but it would not be as cool as it is now if battletech survived under p...

rosco60559

It'll be funny as hell if they decide to tell the players at that tourney thus huge news first. Think of it then those players whom I'm sure are not scared of technology will post he info and scoop pb on this big news, thus once again we backers hear news from someone else first again. Seriously tho...

rosco60559

Stocktigon, how many of ffg's books have been on the coming soon list for 7-10 YEARS? While I agree about being glad there's a Robotech game the mini's are on the low quality side, not the worst I've seen but definitely not "mouth watering" as promised. After seeing several other kickstart...

rosco60559

zyanitevp, while I'm glad you try to communicate with the higher ups, it looks like they're just going uh-hu, yep, ok, good idea then hanging up on you and just going back to business as usual. ignoring anything not brought up or cleared by the boss. as pointed out by morgan the definition of done n...

rosco60559

Oh almost forgot. .. And we're relocated to the rrt section. Lasted longer than I thought over in general pop. Back to solitary.

rosco60559

Agent, I hear ya. Bout a month ago there was a little nugget of info being this huge news for us dealing with rrt. Now a month later I'm no longer really concerned about the big news. Eventually the kickstarter will be updated, all we can do is hope there's actual info in there with what's going on....
