Mine:
1> Combat rules that make sense, a knife should not be more damaging to a brick wall than a firearm (plinking calibre's not withstanding). I don't care how many pickup truck sthat troll can dead-lift, there is only so much force that can be applied to a weapon before it snaps.

2> Weapon creation rules that are used for all weapons in the game, that is, the Ares Predator or the Slivergun are reproduceable through the creation ruleset.

3> Matrix use/abuse more fun. If decking is so powerful, why aren't there more players willing to be propeller heads?

4> Removal of Open Tests, in favor of a more sensible, system. It needs to allow for the rare 1 int NPC to "get lucky" and spot you, but don't make it so common either.

5> Magic rules that make sense. If inivisibility affect the mind of the viewer, why does astral perception break it instantly?
