I'm usually very much of the "it'll be out when it's finished" mindset but I think these are perfectly reasonable questions for someone to ask. I could be wrong but I don't remember this long of a period of pure radio-silence from the FG brass since we went to a 4-quarter/cycle release schedule.

Even though we're all fans, as a paying customer, you have every right to express your opinion. Doesn't mean you hate the game or people that help out, but you 100% have that right. Not sure why this is such a controversial statement.

You can share your opinions either way, as has been done.
No one is trying to silence anyone, I don't think, merely share our sentiment on the issue. It's not only those dissatisfied who are allowed to post here.
Would it be nice to have some more info and communication? Yes.
However, the schedule was always for release September/October, I believe, so we aren't in a situation where things that were promised have not been delivered.

I think people are just looking to see what's happening at all spoilers or not. The only thing we know for sure is Deathmatch set. No word on what if any COTG set or Legends.

So glad you said this Shane!!! I get so tired of hearing guys bitch, belly ache an moan on this site!! FG is run by great people who do a great job and are all top notch quality! We all most likely have more cards than we can ever use. Barry Windham, Vader, Tully, Rotunda, Piper, Orndorff, Nikita.............and the list goes on an on!! Relax people, I'm sure there are more great legends coming! At some point it will have to slow down when these guys get everyone signed LOL! I am not attacking anyone and not even talking about Legends...in which, I agree that someone could come out and Legends community will go "who's next?" before even getting their hands on the announced name. I am simply asking for any information on Promoter Prime third quarter/cycle that has already been paid for at the beginning of the year. This, in turn, has been ignored including from Tom that has posted his fed numerous times since this conversation has started. Once again...if they can take the praise, they can take some criticism... Yes, and within the September/October release date and update will come sometime. I will be right there with you if October 1 hits with no updates, with my pitchfork and torch. Until then - I just sit here and remember “A promised September/October release date, there is still time. |

Has anyone that is looking for answers directly messaged those who are kind of in charge and/or emailed the company looking for those answers?

Hey guys, just a quick note from me on this. As many have noted Fed HQ is staffed by a group that has non-FG jobs that pay the bills. We decided to dial back the content this year from 5 releases to 4 to make sure that the quality stayed high. We also deliberately stated that we were moving away from "quarterly" releases and going to four "cycles" so that we had a little more flexibility in when things were shipped.
I apologize for any confusion that this has caused. I thought that we had covered this at Gcon and the virtual cons earlier this year, but clearly the message didn't come through as intended. Regardless, it's on Fed HQ to correct the misunderstanding and that did not happen in this case.
Just so that everyone is clear on where things stand, I can confirm here that Cycle 3 will ship in October with more details to be announced within the next couple of weeks.

Listen I totally get it, it's what I assumed. Theirs so much content that I'm behind on where I'd be okay if you folks went down to 3 or even 2 releases a year.
It's kind of nice having only one job right now, thank you folks for trying to do 2.

It's kind of nice having only one job right now, thank you folks for trying to do 2. I know its going to be a while, but there will come a day where the names will run dry. Personally, I'd rather keep getting sets over the years. I'd be perfectly Ok with 2 regular sets per year along with Prime and maybe a small 4 pack of some kind (plus with any GCon/Con releases). If that even meant cutting down to 8 cards per regular set to keep it going longer, I'd be happy with it. But thats just me. I always find a way to keep Legends interesting for myself. |

I understand this mentality, and I respect it... But in addition to names potentially running dry, the people who make the sets may come to a time when they have "run dry" and don't want to do it any more. Not that I want them to work themselves to death, but I would love to get what we can, while we can. I'm fine with them making whatever schedule they are happy with, even if that is less than we are currently getting, but I wouldn't want to purposely slow things down to have more years tacked on... I do understand that others could step in and take over when the current crew decide they have had enough, but I love the consistency that we have now, with the same artist, and the same people doing the stats. Just my thoughts, for what they are worth.  |
