Hi there. As an old time 2nd ed Shadowrun fan, I stayed in limbo since 3rd edition came out. But the new anniversary edition got me excited.

So I bought the pdf and am reading it right now. But it seems a whole new world out there. Im trying to do some basic character to learn the new system but Im finding it dificult.

1) It seems there was some changes in the basic runner types. What were they?
(Riggers - i mean the old vehicle pilot ones - got less almost unimportant now?; Differences between Hermetic and Shamanic traditions got diminished? ; hackers got all-powerfull ?)

2) My assumptions about gear got screwed. What changed? (bioware seems really powerfull now, making cyberware seem thing of our grandpas).

3) Is there some general tips for the Point Buy creation process?

And what else would you guys tell for an old dog who is eager to jump back in the wagon? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)

THanks!
