The complete patch notes for Patch 1.8.07 are up
There will be a Reddit AMA, hosted on reddit.com/r/IAmA with the Cyanide development team and Focus Home Interactive. The AMA will be held Wednesday, October 7th from 4 pm to 6 pm CEST (Stockholm).

Dragonfall is probably the best of the 3. Hong Kong is good, but feels a tad bloated IMO. I need to complete my second playthrough as an elf face still. You'll either love or hate the new Matrix. |

didnt know they included the penalty shoot out rule thats an old one. bascially you select your players order to take penalties, iirc you roll a dice and add St and Ag to the score to determine if it goes through the posts.
Basically it helps bash and elves, and screws stunty teams loads and the ag3 st3 ones a bit.
Its instead of the roll off after extra time.
Assuming their implementation is the same as the old rule from fanatic magzine I think it was? might be wrong there though. |

awesome!!!!
I loved shadowrun, somehow this slipped by me. :S
I still play the SNES shadowrun to this day!
edit - Me Feels the need to make a Shadowrun themed team  |
I paid a lot of money to do this, but got bored with a ferry crossing mission.
There's a big difference between british and american gaming philosophy.
There's a lot of pressure on American game companies to keep moving things along. However this has back fired with SR where that 90s cyberbuzz fluff look would be so cool now, alas they tried to move it along and bodged it.
That game defo sounds cool. Shame though that some coaches are willing to splash out on this and that game, but have never donated a penny or an ounce of time to this site though.
Some just don't get it and leach....cest la vie, maybe the're realise one day. |

Definitely one of those times where having a proper pdf of LRB Cyanide edition would be handy. That way we could know what rules are intended and which ones are glitches.
As for SR Hong Kong vs the SNES game. I never played the SNES game. Here is the trailer for Shadowrun Hong Kong.
The three games (so far): You play three different protagonists (of your own creation).
- Shadowrun Returns: Seattle. Investigation of your friend's murder becomes complicated. Cosmically complicated.
- Shadowrun Dragonfall: Berlin. You fall into a conspiracy in the F-state and have to defeat it before it gets to you. Never make a deal with a Dragon.
- Shadowrun Hong Kong. It is in Hong Kong. You have been called by your foster father, after years without contact, to help him. When you arrive he has been murdered, and you and your foster brother have been labelled the terrorists who killed him. |

CRP it's called a penalty shoot out though. I can't see them having anyhting fancier than a roll off, maybe just show whoever wins the rpll off scoring a kick. |

It's an interesting discussion (though probably not one for this thread. Maybe the Off Topic board?) but cyberpunk is still a cool theme, though hard to execute due to where technology is now. The original cyberpunk stuff was a 80's vision of the 2020s. Now we're nearly there it doesn't fly the same, so I think they had to move it on. I like the transhumanism stuff too that it generally moves into. I'm reading Eclipse Phase (game) at the moment. And Neuromancer.
We still go back and play cyberpunk, but it's hard not to transpose real life tech into the world when your 2020's 'micro' computer is the size of a telephone book and miles less functional than a smartphone.
Also, I love people donating as much as the next man, but you can't really dig at people for paying for other games can you? |

Just finished watching a few BB2 games on twitch. It looks fairly decent. And I haven't seen it hang or fail which is what I expected.
It's mostly newbs' try to make tactical decisions in 2 minutes.
It fails mostly for not having Goblin/Halfling teams.
Yet I hope it takes off, and brings in more gamers, as we who were nostalgic about 2nd edition start to decline. |

I'd add +1 if the kicking player has Kick. |
