Welcome to the support thread for Dumpshock members who don't want to form an opinion on SR4 until they see it; who are willing to wait to see how it turns out before arguing over how it is the Second Coming / Yeats' version thereof.

[/crickets]?

uhhh.... I voted for Anne Pennchyk

so.... do we get badges or pins or somethin'? 'cause otherwise I'm going to the other camp. They have sodas.

Don't mind if i stop by for a while? Hey, it isn't like i pre-ordered SR4 at the local FLGS or something. Just because i'm tired of putting up with SR3 doesn't mean i have to move to SR4.

I'll join! I always give a new edition a chance. Wow, there goes a tumbleweed...

Hey, we may not have sodas but we have punch and pie!

We'll need a Treaty, at least so the good ship Enterprise and the Romulans can violate our zones.

I'm not in the wait-and-see camp, but I wanted to give this line:

I'll come to camp, unless it cost money, because thats my prime reason for not getting excited, horridly upset over SR4, can't worry about what i can't afford ritht now...

With Talia as the camp counselor I think it'll be fun..slap. Damn mosquitos. Now where's the punch?

Pft. Never go to prison boy.

<shakes head> Back in my day, we waited with bated breath for the zone to be invaded. We had illustrious penetrators of the forbidden sectors...Captain Kirk. Captain Picard. Denise Crosby in pointy ears. Ah, good times.

Beware of cloaking devices!

I'll be honest... While I knew they were planning demo's at Origins, my actually attending and doing any GMing is a last minute thing (as of a week ago or so). I honestly don't know exactly how much we're supposed to reveal in the demo's, nor if we're going to be allowed to talk about it after the fact.

However, shy of making everyone play sign NDA's (And the headache that comes with trying to enforce those), I imagine anyone who plays will be free to post their thoughts.

Should be an interesting weekend.

Bull

For what it's worth, count me in. I don't like Soda anyway.

*dies*

Damn, now I only have four clones left.

And MekkaCola. Out of two Rupies you pay for it, one goes to the Islamic resistance!

Not to mention the thoroughly communist Club Cola, sold throughout Germany and (I heared) in some selected shops in Poland.

Soda isn't just for capitalists any more.

mm, soda, how i love you

*sets up tent, lights the bbq and calls for repeated airdrops of beer*

Quick note that the demos at Origins do not relate in any way to preview material being released; the Origins demos are quick -- 30-60 minute, I believe -- games. I believe the only handouts provided will be character sheets.

Well, the demo players will see the basics of the dice system and stuff like equipment too, will they?

See as in "experience" not see as in "be handed a copy of the manuscript", yes.

Jolt Cola. You know you're in trouble at your new job when you realise the rec room stocks Jolt as standard...

Im sticking with my guns (I think its a PAC by this point) and saying "Ill just wait and see".

Thats not to say I dont have some trepidation about the new set up. I AM a bit concerned, but I also agree that it needs some working over.

Or they had so much damn grant money it didn't matter who got it.
