I'd like to see more on the Irish Space Gypsies, as well as the Pandora Gates.

Is Hotfix the GM screen? Or something coming out after the sourcebooks? I'd like to see a bit more on the Factors, where's the latest vessel at? How does their prescence effect the current political groups? Etc.

[quote=GregH]Ah... Then some of these queries may be answered already in the earlier suppliments perhaps? Ok... how about alternate faction rules? Characters working as agents of Project Ozma? The Planetary Consortium? or some of these secondary powers like the Morningstar Constallation or even the Jovian Republic?[/quote]
Yeah, that would be really useful. But I think that "Daily life of Transhumanity" should come out before that.

1. Daily life of transhumanity
2. More info on uplifts
3. Spacecraft and the Pandora gates, mainly as one of my player has proposed a game based on the Homeworld videogames and as a huge fan of them myself, well, it would be nice to see what you guys had in mind for spacecraft.
4. Fluff on the other factions and options for working with them.
So basically what has already been said here.

Spacecraft and habitats for me please, & illustrations of them are essential. And another small piece of fiction (this should occur in all books), this really does give a player a good feel for the setting.

- Spacecraft & Equipment. - Daily Life & Travel. - Factions, factions, factions!

Yes. An adventure (or a mini-adventure), that would be awesome. +1 to that one.

As others have stated, "A Day in the Life of a Transhuman" is key information that should go in some sourcebook or another. If this is the first place it can be injected, please make it so. I'd like more on the way the various factions work internally, from Firewall to Titan to the Junta. Not just the surface 'here is how they treat incoming troublemakers,' but information on the movers and shakers in various communities. And I second more information on uplifts, morphs, and ways to gen your own. (Also, yay, new forum!)

Ok, this has already been said, but I'm just adding my vote to it: Spacecraft rules Adventures (big and small) - I really liked On the Run for Shadowrun. Being a new GM, it really helped having references to the rules in the module.

I'm interested in the Infolife aspect of things. What can we find out about AGIs? Naming conventions, "free infomorph" habitats, memes gaining popularity in simulspace lifestyles, and other aspects of life within the Mesh itself.

Better rules for personal craft. One of the NPCs I wrote up has some decided non-standard equipment (an environment suit designed for HALO jumping from low orbit) that I'd really like to stat out and not just handwave behind the pile of books^W^W^WGM screen. EDIT: I should clarify here - not combat rules, but rules for characters flying and maneuvering such craft as a make-or-break scene of the plot. Guidelines or ideas for running abstract simulspaces for hacker PCs. I've been thinking of basing some of the mechanics off of those from Virtual Realities from Mage but I think they're going to wind up being more free form-slash-whatever seems to work at the moment, which is a bit more loose than I like to run a game. A day in the life of an infomorph. While we're at it, maybe some stuff on AGI and infomorph culture and how they relate to and interact with non-infolife. Viruses, worms, and botnets. Oh, my!

I'd like to see a lot of little bits that aren't quite errata but seem to come up on the boards a bit. What kind of "morphs" do people put children into? Obviously there is a range, post-fall, but it'd be nice to have a paragraph/page on what the choices are. How do infomorphs work in relation to a given habitats servers... my understanding was that it was pretty strictly controlled (AI concerns etc); I'd assumed programs would be regulated, etc. But some people seem to feel that servers and infinite computer space are open to everyone; so a hacker can arrive in a habitat make a hundred copies of themself and then do whatever they want. Gear stacking and speed could use some clarification. There seem to be two classes of "speed ups" the Speed +x type and the "grants extra complex mental actions" type (multiple personalities/multitasking/mental speed). Do these all stack? The only one with a restriction is multi-tasking and the restriction is confusingly worded. (From an rp point of view... if Reflex Boost replaces your nervous system with superconducting minerals, how does neurachem then make it faster?) The players "right" to always have their morph/gear. I think it's fair to say that gear, on a CP basis, is much much more powerful than anything else. Dropping a few credits on the right gear gets you stuff (attribute and skill bonuses) that would require many multiples of CP to buy for your ego. Furthermore there is a whole class of bonuses (speed, armor, etc) that aren't available at all. It -seems- to me like the balancing factor in all this is that EP is a game about dying frequently and traveling-by-egocasting. So you're gear/morph is really cheap because you won't have access to it the majority of the time. Naturally there are a lot of people who post and disagree saying, basically, "I spent my character points on it, I should always have my gear and morph, just like everything else I bought at character creation". Some help would be nice; at least a discussion of the ramifications. 3D (or pseudo-3D) maps of habitats. Very very hard for me to imagine what they look like. I saw Rob (I think) is already working on spaceships. Adventure seeds? Maybe with simple maps and a few npcs stated out?

I would think that these are what the neotenic morphs are for. They could be tweaked to have a variety of appearances and modifications, and so could be used for transhumans who wanted to reproduce. Of course, some transhumans who are chronologically children might wear them for their morphs for reasons of their own (Sarlo in [u]Lack[/u]).

The way I was going to run it was the same way the sysadmins at the college I went to ran the multinode cluster for comp.sci students - everyone had an upper limit on disk storage and hard (you can never exceed this much) and soft (if you need it, you can use this much for a limited period of time) limits on the amount of RAM and CPU time you could use. In a particular hab, infomorphs could be given an allotment of processor time and RAM for their egos to execute within and so many exobytes of storage for other things. Trying to make use of resources allocated to other morphs would run into hard limits (which it might be possible to override by cracking the control system, but then you would be getting into infowar within a hab territory).

I would like to see this, also. What happened to the plot pot a couple of message subs over?

I would assume you could either have a newborn morph (either from a exowomb or the natural way) that grows just like any other baby, or you could throw a empty newborn morph into a growth vat where it will mature quickly. The problem is probably when you speedgrow a inhabited morph possible due to strain on the psyche from changes in their biological brain. Or something.

I will be a bit of a kill-joy and simply state what I don't think should be given priority in terms of official releases. Adventures. Although all good fluff / setting books should be filled with plot ideas and possibly adventure suggestions, my experience with full on adventure books is, well, mixed. Most GMs will be able to use almost all well-written settings books (or at least find them inspirational), while most GMs and gaming groups have very different preferences as to what is a fun adventure / story. For example, I was the GM for a group of players for the back-in-the-day Shadowrun editions, and although I loved the Shadowrun universe I had no use at all for the adventure releases. Releasing adventures as PDF versions though I am very much in favour of.

I'm typically ok with just plot ideas, or adventure ideas. In the shadowrun GM Screen it included a booklet of several 1-2 paragraph adventure ideas, which were very handy. Also, in a couple of their setting book, they provided similar aids. These are great, however, some of GM's simply don't have the time these days to think out a full drawn out adventure. When all one has to do is read the adventure, and then the rules it incorporates, it can be a far better use of ones time. But then again, maybe I'm just speaking for myself. :) I agree with the PDF versions as well. I don't think a full dedicated book is necessary right out of the gate, but maybe in the future.

Here's another vote for more about Daily Life in this brave new world! And here's is my complete list.. 1.) Daily Life 2.) Custom Morphs 3.) Uplifts 4.) Expanded Psi 5.) Expanded Mesh, Infolife, and Computers 6.) Another poster mentioned Project Ozma, and that grabbed my attention 7.) Very basic space and ship rules (bottom of the list deliberately, and when I read mineral surveys and orbit charts, I'm already beginning to get uneasy to what is being proposed)

I'd like to see more advanced combat rules with hit location damage. After all, a bullet in the arm may do little harm, but the same bullet in the head can make you very dead. Vehicle combat and construction would be nice, and as to the guy who said he didn't like all the posts about spacecraft combat, don't complain when people give honest answers to valid questions.
