QUOTE (SpasticTeapot @ Apr 14 2009, 10:55 AM)  One small suggestion: Put links to the rules updates everywhere. In huge, flashing letters. What I had found in the "errata" section was the old errata, which was one of the main reasons I was so cheesed - I was looking at the old stuff. It has also been prominently displayed on the front page of shadowrun4.com. It still is (but John's post on GenCon events bumped it to the #2 spot). |

That's where I found it - it's not actually in the errata section. I haven't played SR4 in a year or so, and figured that "errata" would be on the "errata" webpage, not the "news" webpage. |

The resources/errata page needs a cleanup, that's for sure. It's on the TODO list. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I add, again, that many Shadowrun players don't even know about the various webpages and internet errata. If it's not in the book, it doesn't exist as far as they're concerned.

And those of us who do know about the errata page expect it to contain the errata. (Especially considering that the errata currently posted is labeled the latest version. Weird, eh?)
Those of us who are used to ducks always being placed in the "ducks" bin and not the "alpaca" bin might get confused and start calling you WOTC-esque profiteers.... |

The SR4A Changes document is now in the Errata section of the Resources page: http://shadowrun4.com/resources/index.shtml#errata

QUOTE (Blade @ Apr 15 2009, 03:13 AM) The webpages URL are in the books. Yes. It tells me to look in the "errata" section. Where the new errata isn't. "But the plans were on display ..." "On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them." "That's the display department." "With a flashlight." "Ah, well the lights had probably gone." "So had the stairs." "But look, you found the notice didn't you?" "Yes," said Arthur, "yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard'." |

QUOTE (Blade @ Apr 15 2009, 12:13 AM) The webpages URL are in the books. Yeah. Shadowrunrpg.com, and FanProGames.com. Nothing about errata in my book, either. Some of the older books don't have the current links, and it's doubtful that many players would even bother to check them. I know my group was surprised when I brought in five pages of errata, and their books were more current than mine. |
