Where is my fucking email Infinitron

I saw a guy called Infinitron selling HK keys on ebay.

 

[Infinitron]

There are no HK keys yet.

Not sure you're supposed to get one, in which case HBS may have just given out a bunch of spare keys to Kickstarter backers by accident.

We could ask Angthoron to ask them about it...but I'm not sure I want them to notice those. Don't worry, it's not like you won't get your key in the end.

 

[WhiteGuts]

Where's the fucking game, Infinitron ? Did you use your sly jew ways to steal it from us ?

Any day, actually. We were already talking with Robin about it, but there was some delay. I'll get in touch with him again. There'll be a newspost when I can name a concrete day/know that the accounts have been created.

[pippin]

There's a Shadowrun Weekend going on on Steam right now. http://store.steampowered.com/sale/shadowrun_weekend

 

[Ovplain]

Gonna be a long couple of months.:S WANT SR:HK NOW!=(

 

[SwiftCrack]

I seriously hope they milk this thing until they've tackled every interesting major city in the world.

Wishful thinking, I know.

 

[Ulminati]

Nice. but why post the scaled-down screenshots?

 

[Starwars]

Ugh, goddamn... that final urban shot in the trailer got me all hyped and in the mood for some cyberpunk.

EDIT: Also, that final screenshot... Kowloon perhaps?

 

[Ivan]

Incline Included

 

[Infinitron]

Update your wishlists: http://store.steampowered.com/app/346940

 

[Ulminati]

Why? We're all getting kickstarter copies.

 

[Karwelas]

Do you smell it? I smell incline. Strong incline.

Spoiler

I didn't backed it, but only becouse I was dumb fag without bank account. But soon!

 

[Jimmious]

Backed and waiting to feel the joy
However I do wonder, will there be something actually new in this one, except more and better of what we already had? Not that I mind that, just wondering since I can't notice something of the sort

 

[Bonerbill]

Yay, Lucky is back. I hope she's playable in some fashion.

 

[pippin]

Lucky

 

[Karwelas]

Lucky was that menc from Dragonfall, aye? I remember that she talk only once to me, should I replay Dragonfall with her in the team? Something more happend then?

Pretty sure that is a no, it was just some flavor added in the DC, maybe foreshadow to HK? I think it was because she was a fan favorite, an effective merc and she looked hot.

 

[pippin]

Lucky was present in Dragonfall as a hired gun, but they gave her some dialogue and backstory in DC.

 

[Dreaad]

So excited, problems aside it's still the only kickstarter that truly delivered.

 

[Roguey]

I'm pretty impressed with how they're still on track for summer.

It'll probably be September and not August like originally envisioned though.

 

[almondblight]

Yeah, she mentions how Racter is a new part of her team in one conversation. Also tells you about her dust-ups with the Yakuza while working for them in Japan. I wouldn't be surprised if that might tie in to her and Racter being in Asia.

 

[GarfunkeL]

At least the wizard and the drone fight in the same area as the meatspace plebs. (well maybe not the wizard, but it's usually possible to have him be with everyone else). The decker OTOH is a special little snowflake who gets a world of his ow. With tons of special rules. Running at superspeed. So you take half the session to entertain a single player while everyone else raids the fridge or play another game. Srsly. fuck deckers.

Heh, I very quickly learned to not include any deckers in the team except as NPCs or hirelings. Easier to just run a meat-campaign with perhaps one magic character who would only get limited Astral projection time.

Alternatively, I've always wanted to run a full Matrix campaign with 3-5 deckers only but never found enough interested players.

 

[Sykar]

That looks sweet.
