So I paid my deposit, started counting down the months to expected delivery of a shiny, completely impractical, floaty nyx model to take pride of place in my...erm...need to clear a space for it in time for Q4 2016.

Then, upon contacting Triforce, I learn that it was to be delayed to Q2 of 2017. So I harumph a bit, but decide to wait. Getting closer to the wire, I again contact Triforce, who respond telling me that it will be delayed further until Q3/4 of 2017.

So, the question is - why are CCP associating with people who cannot build or deliver what they advertise? Does this reflect in any good way on the reputation of CCP.

Expecting lots of trolling, but ffs - what is going on? can I get a free plex as compensation? Twisted

Paid 2.000 Euros and nothing to show for it Big smile

There's also still some Frigates of EVE books for sale.. I know you want one ;)
Maybe that'll ship in time Roll

When you don't know the difference between there, their, and they're, you come across as being so uneducated that your viewpoint can be safely dismissed. The literate is unlikely to learn much from the illiterate.

I also have a deposit down on blue butter, the virtue of a northern lass and a jar of distilled politician's sincerity...

that model is super dope, but I can't imagine spending that much money on it. I'd think a premium product like that would ship on time.

What you mean this?

Who knows, I'm too poor for such things.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Guess this just makes them the perfect fit for CCP's ability to deliver...

You are required to enter mystery code at checkout to obtain "floating" nyx model.

You choke behind a smile a fake behind the fear

CCP hasn't a good reputation.
That's why they associate with such companies!

simple as that.

CCP would still deliver, but first of all nyxes would be late, followed by revision to dominix, followed by delivery of a vexor, then a general policy that all future models would always be an algos, but delivered quickly.

In the future each delivery of an algos would have the number of slots changed to try and cure the perception that they were likely to fall over and were thus unbalanced, and eventually all future work would revolve around balancing the models. If they delivered a new model, then it would be particularly likely to fall over and thus need considerable balancing work.

You'll get it right after the AF rebalance, shouldn't take too long.

That is abaolute nonesense. It's a model, not some kind of bulk order on electronic components.
If you're not ripping CCP and this vendor a new ******* biweekly for this kind of delay on a product, then you should be.

It's time for a refund, mate.

Edit Unless this is some reference to ship model updates. I've had one too mamy strong bloody marys tonight.

......and here I thought that CCP alone had Soon trademarked.

To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.

...and every time I get another piece of Carbon, I know exactly what CCP is getting this Christmas.
