Reply To: BattleTech: Mercenaries – CGL does a shipping booboo? Internet rages!

The mistake in shipping costs was unlikely to be the only issue, because that would have been fixed without any of us noticing.
Underordering by a huge factor sounds like a logical explanation for the issues they’ve been having. (this also makes me wonder if they even thought of what to do with retail after the kickstarter … because if you don’t have enough product for backers then surely retail is going to be an even bigger issue ?)

As I’ve said the ‘missing’ stuff must have been critical or else they would have been shipping stuff months before.
The lack of info on what exactly was not available/missing is an attempt to hide their mistakes/incompetence.

And then there’s the very real possibility that they were using the funding from this kickstarter to plug holes in previous ones … (something that isn’t a ‘new’ thing either … )

I guess it is tempting especially if you got ‘soo much’ that a little won’t be noticed.
Except that kind of thinking tends to lead to a slippery slope (and into the abyss if not stopped).

I guess it’s time to check our spam folders in the next weeks/months.
