Ultimate Rifts Second Printing?

Sureshot · Unread post by **Sureshot** » Sat Sep 30, 2006 11:02 am

I read in a recent copy of the Rifter that there weer plans to do a new printing of RUE. Is that still on track? Or has it been pushed for next year?

There are plans. Where those plans stand is in the works. It needs to be reprinted.

If they are reprinting it, I can only hope that they remembered to fix ALL the MISTAKES

Fix some little things, like the Borg OCC layout, add the Juicer's PP bonus, remove the Nokia add, stuff like that.

For two reasons. Stock maybe running low and with Christmas not too far away it would be insane to not have any ready to ship out. Second there are some minor errors in the book that need to be corrected and the N-gage ad will probably be removed.

Anyone know if we will ever see official errata for RUE?

Galactis Kid went through the entire thread of RUE Errata, and presented them to Kevin. If there is something that you find, that was missed int he errata thread, please post in that thread.

Imo the errata will probably be released at the same time the second printing is available. It makes perefect business sense. Though I maybe wrong on that.

Heh, I was a new player and got the Rifts RUE as my first book since it was the new main book. If it wasn't for my friend Keagan I probably would have never noticed the mistakes: Just the missing details like the leaping distances and stuff.

I seem to remember that being the plan.

I either read it in a Murmur, Press Release, or in one of Kevin's post... or I am mistaken...

I have 13 of 'em.

Of course, 11 of 'em are in a sealed box. I'm the only person I know of (besides Kev) that has two of the first printing of the RMB. I've also got seven Rifts: Ultimate Gold.

You know the metric range on the C-27 plasma cannon is still 488 km ?

One would think after 11 printings of the old RMB, and a brand new Ultimate Edition, that someone, somewhere, would put in a freakin' decimal point!

That is why RUE needs to be re-printed... because its full of more glitches than Windows Vista.

It will soon be reprinted. I didn't spend almost my entire internship and thensome ompiling errata and th like for it NOT to be.

Did you fix the C-27?
Are you the Chosen One who will finally set this right after 15 years?

What is the problem with the C-27?

The Galactus Kid · Mon Oct 02, 2006 7:27 pm

Yes I fixed it. And yes, I am the chosen one. I fixed other things too. If it stays how I put it, the C-12 will go back to making sense.

I don't know...what did you do to the C-12?

The Galactus Kid · Mon Oct 02, 2006 8:11 pm

Made it fit with the text.

Dustin Fireblade · Mon Oct 02, 2006 8:22 pm

Well that's kinda vague....multiple people have read the same text and come to different conclusions on the weapons performance.

Have a close look at the range... compare the feet to the kilometers.

By the book, the C-27 can hit targets in England if fired from America... :roll:

A simple mistake, but one that has been there since 1990.

...what did you do to the C-12?

Gave it a realistic burst damage, like it's supposed to have?
