Continued line support?

Mongoose
I can't help but notice that the entire "Upcoming Products" section is gone. Is Mongoose dropping the line? I hope not :(
 
MSprange has made some posts in the Mongoose discussion section about the state of Mongoose, in one of them he mentions that Paranoia RPG and CG will both be getting new products.

I checked with Matt about this - apparently, the modules like Sweep of Unhistory got pushed back a bit in the schedule, hence they're off the 'coming soon' radar. They'll be visible on the website again in a month or two.
 
I've noticed Mongoose tend to be a little, erm, optimistic regarding release dates. Before the most recent clearout I think there were about four products listed for release in the next three months (like My First Treason) - and this after several recent books had been delayed...

I can't fault the level of support they're giving the line, but this continuous proposing / withdrawal of unrealistic release dates doesn't look terribly professional. In fact it just looks silly.

Why not just have a 'TBC' section for upcoming titles, only listing actual release dates when everything is pretty much certain? I appreciate in a small industry like printed RPGs, you're going to get the odd unforeseen delay with printers, distributors, titles like Collapsatron being incorporated into Flashbacks II, etc. but the release schedules have been rewritten more times than Alpha Complex history.

(Which may be in keeping with the setting, but bloody well shouldn't be!)

Mongoose staff, we appreciate all the hard work you do, we just don't like the overenthusiastic promises :)
 
I have been assured that the card game expansion is definetly in the works. That is, of course, like saying the gun is loaded but I really hope to see it. It'll give me all the excuse I need to terrorize my gaming group once again. (Please, oh please, oh please, expand the rulebook with clarifications!)

Mutie Whack isn't the expansion is it? The game could do with mutant powers added in but if it isn't then I suppose we'll be waiting even longer for it...
 
No, Mutie Wack is/was a mission collection for the RPG and had nothing to do with the card game. At this writing, the status of Mutie Wack is uncertain.
 
Having a look at the upcoming releases, I see it's disappeared off the deck. Oh well, back to the end of the PLC queue again...
