What is in the making?
Is there an overview over all the EP related books/products that are currently planned? Not asking for a schedule or anything related to release dates. I just kinda lost track.

I believe the next upcoming book is [i]Firewall[/i] which I am guessing is about Firewall.

You, too, were made by humans. The methods used were just cruder, imprecise. I guess that explains a lot.

PS, you guys should check out
PS, you guys should check out White Wolf's website. They keep progress bars on all of their products in seven stages. Not sure if you have the personpower to do that, but it's highly recommended.

No thanks. Onyx Path gets _so much heat_ over that section of their site, it's unreal. And they've admitted that it's frequently out of date. We do need to get better at doing monthly-updates. The Kickstarter campaign has helped with that but we're still not quite there in terms of banging out a monthly update. This summer we have the release of Shinobi Clans, our new card game. It is on the non-proverbial boat right now and will be available in August/September. The next hardcover release for Eclipse Phase is Morph Recognition Guide. It will be available this summer. It will be followed by Firewall. Interspersed in there will be the remaining KS stretch goals, such as Million Year Echo, the Argonauts book, the Morph Recognition Cards, flowcharts, the 1.0 release of Singularity, and the Fate Conversion Guide. The logjam on that stuff has started to break, and I expect a steady stream of releases for the rest of the year.

Agreed. Their schedule is often times more misleading than helping in any way. I had this in mind when I was specifically _not_ asking for a schedule.

That would be great. Even if it is a short notice like: "Yes, we are still alive and still working on XYZ." There seems to be a gap between the quality of your products (which is generally very high) and your information policy, e.g. the up-to-dateness (is this even a word?) of the EP website.

Yup. Some of that is Policy: we prefer not to have many upcoming projects announced. Right now we have more than I'd like announced, due to all the Kickstarter stretch goals. And some of that is Staff Bandwidth, in that, especially while we have a lot of projects on the go, sometimes sitting down for a couple hours and compiling all of the current status updates and pushing that live just doesn't happen. It should be more of a priority, I agree.

And this? Is this just an automatic Amazon update or will there be a post? I have been planning to buy at least one hardcopy from you guys to support you.

The 4th printing is available; your friendly local game store should be able to get it now, subject to the whims of their distributors...
