Man I'm getting crappy download speed today.
SR:HK can't be stressing the Steam servers that much, can it?

I think his story was one of the most refreshing and original I've seen and fits the setting really well, which is why I didn't mention it. I intentionally tried to take the "paragon save the day" route, just to see how it would end. It ended in a true shadow run fashion of terribly. Amazing sub-plot IMO.
Yeah, another nice thing about the Blitz subplot is that if you're doing the right thing and telling him to stop I believe you actually get less game content. I could be misremembering, I am old and never had much perception to start.

I have 1gb fiber and usually get 50-60MB/s from Steam...downloading SR:HK was very slow think I was getting around 9MB/s. It was also kind of a weird download, not that I've watched too many games download, but about 50% through my network speed dropped to basically 0 and the disk speed went very high, after about 3-4 minutes of that it reversed and the download resumed.

Sigh, so first it took me 15 minutes to download 11 gigs from GOG, and now it starts to install, which will take another 15 minutes.

Path of Exile was somehow blocking my Hong Kong download--it did not survive the process.

Anyone know what skill the new cyberweapons use? Hand razors, spurs, monofilament whip? I think HR are melee in PnP and the other two are exotic? There is no exotic in game though ...

And does Killing Hands work with any of them? The hand razors seems to have their own abilities from the new cyber skill tree

Edit:
Oops the cyber tree = the cyber weapon crit tree so they use neither unarmed or melee

So other question do monofilament whips use STR for damage?

Isn't there a new skill line just for cyberz stuff or something?

Yeah the new tree in Body is basically both for cyberware and the cyberweapon crit tree, however close combat in STR still applies to cyberweapons. I suspect but can't confirm that spurs and hand razors use STR for damage and that MF whips do not. Whips seem to have like almost nothing for special abilities and hand razors get quite a few. Not sure how spurs work with hand razors.

According to the karma spend screen, monofilament whips use Ranged Weapons. Spurs and razors use Close Combat (and maybe Melee Weapons).
