I was just wondering if they went to a system in which you can only upgrade your attributes through karma to a maximum of your starting level + 3 ranks if people would hate or love that type of system.

The reason why I was thinking along this lines was the thought that upon starting thier careers as shadowrunners thier attributes are at some percentage of thier maximum potential. Sure you can work out and take lots of steriods but if you start the game with a strength of 2 you aren't going to get up to 9-10 without serious augmentations.

This way there is an incentive to buy relatively high stats at the begining of your career rather than converting those build points to cash and "getting more bang for your buck". With this sort of a system while going with low attributes and lots of cyber or magic boosts to attributes at the beginning will give you a big edge initially your maximum attribute totals will be lower than someone who goes high attributes from the beginning.
