Speed vs. Acceleration, What's the difference? Options

[TheOOB]

Yup, basically the chase combat rules should only be used with both/all vehicles have little trouble reaching the highest speed possible for the enviroment and it boils down more to driver skill and maneuverability. When you are in a motorcycle chase darting between shipping containers at the docks, darting through alleys and dodging cars, as long as you are not completely outclasses in terms of speed, speed is largely irrelevent. However, once the chase leads to a straightaway with no obstacles, then the faster vehicle will quickly outrun the slower one.

Another words, don't use the chase combat rules until someone starts weaving in and out of traffic and other difficult spots to lose a tail.

I have a quick question, and this seemed the place for it. If the driver slams on the brakes do any of you think the passengers who are not wearing restraints should have to make some kind of check to keep from being in the front seat/plastered to windshield?

The reason I ask is that it seems funny to me to think of the hacker (still jacked in) playing suction-cup Garfield on the inside of the windshield without even being aware of it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I would say that the hacker (if not knocked inconscious) would at least have the feeling that something is not completely right, while in VR there's a penality to perception tests, but I would say that being trown on (if not trough) the windshield it something that has a negative treshold (you need an effort to not notice it).

Ok, but would they have to make a test if not strapped in, hacker or not? Or does everyone just assume they automatically adjusted?
