sze5003 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) Yea I hope so too I can't wait to change out my warthog base for that warBRD base. I'll be a bit more upset if it's another delay because I have no other option but to wait. Problem is i may be moving so if they delay again not sure what ill have to do. I haven't seen a mcg pro desktop base and grip bundle available in US for at least two months.

sze5003 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Yea saw that, oh well it does suck because of how long it will take to travel to US. I may have it by end of August then. Not sure what I'll do with the cosmosim cams but I guess it's better than nothing.

I am a little surprised they are not offering something for folks that ordered the throttle and not getting a WarBRD...

Ayindi Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) Well I think its ok to offer "just one" goodie for the overall delay. I'm fine with that... What annoys me a little is the constant delays. First delay was like 2 weeks, then a rather long delay of a whole month which is still acceptable, but they promised that July 9th will be the last delay and now they are telling us that shipment will start next week (not sure about you, but isnt that another delay?) and not this week... And that "only" for the WarBRD guys. The Throttle preorders are scheduled after that... Now I wonder what does "after" mean? I would hope that all WarBRD preorders are shipped within a week or so... So that means that we can hope for a Throttle shipment starting in the "DCS legandary words: two weeks" the earliest...? Thats (at least) another two weeks delay of the promised 9th of July. I start getting a bit annoyed and as a more or less intelligent individual I start feeling a little mocked by the communication from Virpil. Here is a quote from their June 16th post: "We’re very excited to get these products in everyone’s hands and we’re standing by 9th July as the beginning of pre-order dispatches." I dont want to overanalyse every word and it seems close now, but their last announcement does not sound like the dispatches would begin today... Even not this week... Which is a little disappointing after a streak of delays... :( Well overall I doubt that I will get my hands on the throttle this month which is disappointing, but not a big problem. What annoys me is the communication. I just can recommend to improve that. I preordered to support them, but after this I'm not sure if I will preorder something from them again... Still buying because the quality of their products is good, but preorder again? Meh... Edited July 9, 2018 by Ayindi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
