Been gone a while but itching for some space action, I wanted to wait till EP2 was out so we didn't make a group then have to re-make it to fit new rules. If I recall, kickstarter said PDF would start coming out October, is there any news on that?

I don't know the release date
I don't know the release date, except that I hope the answer is "when it's really good".
Whether you would have to remake characters probably depends on your play style. For power-gaming or tactical optimization it might be too early.
In our "mixed" group (2 from EP1, 4 new ones) with more emphasis on story telling and role playing, the currently published bits are excellent already in combination with EP1 to dive into the universe. Sure, our Async had to adjust something a week ago, but he didn't bother.

Power gaming isn't really a
Power gaming isn't really a concern, luckily our group puts more focus on rule of cool.
Just wanted to make sure older ruled chars don't clash with newer ones and also give everyone that "Okay we're trying a new thing buckle in." experience :D

We just posted a release date update; EP2 will be released in 2018: http://eclipsephase.com/eclipse-phase-second-edition-release-update
Character concepts from EP1 will absolutely work in EP2, although some mechanical shifting will have to happen. Or if you want to dive into EP2 right now, the playtest materials are available, and so are the Quick-Start Rules!

Yeah, I seem to have either missed that at time of posting this or posted it before. Either way, appreciate the heads up a lot so we can rp accordingly. For now we'll playtest the EP2 parts and use EP1 where needed until release date :)
