So since the hardcopy book isn't coming out until August, is there any chance of these Errata you've found making their way in, or is it already in the process of being printed?

Printing a large run book like this is a lengthy process.  The files went to the printer a couple months ago, sadly.

Just FYI, everything to this point is under discussion or already addressed.

This is a good process.

Dang. I'm usually a PDF guy, but I actually want to get the hardcopy for the core rules. I guess I'll wait and see if the full list of Errata includes anything truly bad. I don't mind typos, but when the book gets the numbers wrong, that makes me leery. Might have to wait for a second printing, in that case.

I don;t own a single 1st printing of any game major game book that doesn't have a number or two wrong somewhere in it. :)

Just the nature of the game, honestly.  Pathfinder has had 6 printings, and so far 5 of the 6 have Errata documents for them.  D&D 4 PHB has a 27 page Errata document.  7th Seas infamously released a whopping 64-page Eratta booklet for their Players and Gameasters books with one of the GM resource kits.  There's been an errata doc for every first printing of a Shadowrun core book since 1st edition.

It sucks.  It's not fun.  But it's the nature of the beast.  Least we're trying to stay on top of it this time around and get an eratta sheet out immediately.

Is there a place we can see the compiled errata? 

If that was listed I didn't see it.  That way we don't have to keep bringing up something that was already found.  :)

It's being run through the approval process right now. As I get more news, I will share it.

The cost of submersion is off I believe, it list: 10 X(times) (Submersion gradeX3) (P.257)

The cost for Initiation is : 10 +(plus) (initiationX3) (P.325)

The bolded parts are the differences and I think the mistake is the cost of submersion... Let us know, it is becoming a debate between my mage player and the technomancer player
Chaos? Lack of protection? Enemies lurking in the shadows? Sounds
to me like the fun’s just beginning. Sorry you’ll miss it, omae.

It's an error, yeah. If it's not in the errata already, it will be soon. Thanks!

Table of Contents errors:

The page listing for Trid Entertainment is incorrect - a leading 2 was dropped.
"The Danger of Side Jobs" is misspelled as "The Danger of Sider Jobs".
Vehicle and Drone Mounted Weapons isn't indented, but every other instance of multi-line TOC entries indents the second line.

Page 221: "...illegal or unauthorized use of the gird."  Should be grid.

Both terms get used in Shadowrun.

It's that whole "l sounding like r" thing.

Sarariman is a lot older in usage than Shadowrun.

Spirits of earth, spirits of fire and spirits of man have mental attributes not equal to F. Is-it true ?

Spirit of fire :
Reaction: F+3
Intuition: F+1
Initiative: ((F x 2) + 3) + 2D6

It would be ((F x 2) + 4) or Intuition: F

Same for spirits of man.

Is it just me, or does "Sarariman" smack of racial.... something? I don't know, like making fun of the way someone talks based on where they came from? Salaryman seems more couth. Unless, of course, your 'runner is an uncouth douchebag, lol.
