Enjoying the game.
Could use some edits and spelling corrections. Inventive in a few clever ways, imaginative with a new kind of town, and really feels like it fits in nicely with the canon world.
I understand some people's frustration at a lack of gear (esp med-packs) but it does make you fight smarter. It's also a nice change from having dozens of things in your stash that you'll never use.
i'm struggling with the boss fight. The new npc, Chelsey The Cleaner, is pretty much just another target to draw fire. She has Imperial Stormtrooper-like accuracy, it's amazing.
There's just too many baddies coming at you one after the other. Will keep trying at it.

Overall, good module. Challenging at times, but well worth playing.

Thank The Maker :)

@Cleo You buy Medkits in a doctor in Crafton, i belive.
Boo 8 Dec, 2021 @ 7:00pm 
where do I buy medkits? I'm looking all over and I need some or I'm soft locked

Well done. Nice to see a rustbelt town like Pittsburgh in SR.

what is the time that this can be played for?

I really don't like dissing UGC especially with it becoming more rare by the day, but this one was just sad. To sum it up, just don't.

Underrated mod, but seriously, the lack of quest markers is absolutely frustrating.

How do I find the code for the Package in the Train Yard? I paid to get entrance but I see no where else to interact with to find the code for the Vault with the package.
Bug?

Your Buddy's apartment is at the top right of the NorthSide map
Your Buddy is a decker!
You escape by turning the corner and exiting the building. Too many LoneStar and powerful mage Mr. Carnege
jayr17 11 Sep, 2020 @ 7:37am 
Yeah, lack of useful, and accessible equipment is a pain (i.e. Medkits). I kind of like the way it limits having heavy hardware, but yeah lots of bugs: In the Matrix, your bots don't follow so they are a long ways away when all the ICE kicks in; I bought some armor (Stealth Suit Armor 4, +1 movement, +1 quickness) it shows up as still Armor 1, no additional movement, but +1 quickness;

seriously broken when u cant find a weapon in a shadowrun game

I tend to agree, no quest markers in the middle of runs is a nice refreshing change, but I can't even begin to express the frustration of not having quest markers for buildings which you should have the address for. ... Also a minor quibble, you seem to use multiple version of things like "Magic Resistance", as in some magic venders sell you the verson of Magic Resistance (1) that gives you med cover, where-as others sell you Magic Resistance (1) that give you light cover only but carry Magic Restistance (2 & 3) for better magical cover.
Gamervox 20 May, 2017 @ 7:45am 
how do you escape?
Om3ga-Z3ro 24 Jul, 2016 @ 1:24am 
Okay, as much as your number of excuses for "This story is meant to be explored" is not a very good reason for the lack of quest markers, I explore all my story maps I play before heading to the quest marker to see if I can find any hidden loot but having a lack of quest markers is frustrating, this is a good story but there are so many problems that puts me off it.

Do I need a decker to complete my first run at Biotech or is it bugged
ccwylde70 23 Jun, 2016 @ 4:53pm 
@ John Wick - near the very bottom ( center ?) of the map, if I remember correctly.
Cyber Teths 23 Jun, 2016 @ 1:11pm 
Okay, so where is the goddamn appartment? I'm stuck in the begining. Please help me.
Brummie 31 May, 2016 @ 7:26pm 
No quest markers on runs is a good idea, it makes sense. No quest markers for finding a friends home on the otherhand... You you invite people to your home by giving them the district that you live in and nothing else :p ?
alexey2128506 28 May, 2016 @ 3:16pm 
tafaridh, yes it is that bug.

I used spirits as cannon fodder and they counts as "dead runners".

Tried this fight without spirits.

On first try his AOE killed my drone (not activated!) and it was "you lose" immediately.

Second try - succeed.

Thank you for good story!
ccwylde70 27 May, 2016 @ 3:57pm 
@alexey2128506:

If you still have your last save, try banishing any spirits that are on your team BEFORE you completely finish that battle. I think that should do the trick.
tafaridh  [author] 27 May, 2016 @ 3:08am 
alexey,
dang, thought I fixed that, but I did reformat my computer recently and I might not have uploaded the fix for that. I'll give it a look. It's probably because spirits from your team left.
alexey2128506 27 May, 2016 @ 1:13am 
Last (?) battle trouble

Maxwell's mansion, top floor. My crew beat Maxwell, he withdraw to portal and - "you lose, runner killed". But all my crew is alive.


Is it a bug, or I did something wrong?
tafaridh  [author] 4 May, 2016 @ 7:56pm 
Been away for a while; busy with work. I have recently set my content pack back up and fixed some small things. I'm going to work on putting in quest markers since that is so requested, however the game is definitely meant to be explored and not just fighting from point to point. Anyway, glad people are enjoying it.
Cracked Actor 30 Apr, 2016 @ 7:31pm 
Agreed with brotherofblood. It's interesting so far, but a quest marker would make a world of difference
shnowitzer 10 Apr, 2016 @ 12:21am 
hot damn a story that takes place in my hometown, now I have to play it
Bag of Snails 9 Apr, 2016 @ 2:42pm 
Liking this so far, but I feel some what frustrated navigating. I dont know how hard it would be to add but a quest marker would make this much easier to play. Or perhaps a jpg map we can download that has all the locations on it.

Still a great mod. Love it. Keep up the good work
La_Anarquista 9 Apr, 2016 @ 12:38am 
I really feel like it should be "The Anarchist Wars" instead. But I'm not sure.
La_Anarquista 9 Apr, 2016 @ 12:35am 
I like Anarchism. Maybe I will check this out.
Tangaroa 6 Apr, 2016 @ 9:30pm 
At the very least, fix the word "neutral" in your description! This adventure would be helped by a good editor.
nosdrahcirsemag 20 Mar, 2016 @ 3:51pm 
Where's a decent talismonger?
Wolfzuzu 19 Mar, 2016 @ 11:59am 
I'm gonna try this mode out, need some shadowrun in my system) I was wondering if it was hard to create?
tafaridh  [author] 18 Mar, 2016 @ 4:35pm 
@KillBotV3

Pittsburgh is not SR canon. I needed a blank canvas for my story and grew up around Pittsburgh, so I know a good bit about the area.

You sell pay data to Mr. E in Oakland. His shop is just NE of the main bus stop.
tafaridh  [author] 18 Mar, 2016 @ 4:29pm 
Been away for a while; busy with work. I'm happy to see people are enjoying the mod.

Thanks for the feedback ccwylde70 and anaxolomun. I'll look into the issues you have mentiond. I'm going to have Frazzel give better directions to his appartment at the start. You definitly should not be spawing inside the crime mall. Hope that was some defect I added last upload :P .

I'll also look into the issue with the Vampire Lord and losing becuse of having a summoned spirit at the end.


Thanks for playing!
Blanco Kislev 13 Mar, 2016 @ 9:05pm 
@ccwylde70 Thanks!
ccwylde70 12 Mar, 2016 @ 9:40pm 
@Issacfrost - I had that problem myself - thought you had to dodge/fight/run your way back the way you came, but that doesn't work. Instead, there's an exit in the corridor just left of the room you go in that triggers all hell breaking loose. I didn't see it at first, as there's no indication that it's there unless you bother to go around that corner of the corridor and look for it. Hope that helps !
edubs 12 Mar, 2016 @ 11:05am 
Some bugs and a lot of typos, but awesome mod!
Blanco Kislev 12 Mar, 2016 @ 4:28am 
How do I escape the Steel Plant? I did the mission and have Escape but see now way to exit it. Bug?
KillBotV3 4 Mar, 2016 @ 4:48am 
So, on my first play-through (Troll Knife Thrower) I remember finding a place where you could sell paydata from runs. Now, on my second play-through (Decker/Rigger) I can't find it again. I've been all over every map, bit it's not there. Is there a mission you have to complete to unlock it or something? And where the hell is it?

Probably should have lead with this: Great work! I enjoyed the story and feel of the setting.
Was Pittsburg ever released in Shadowrun lore, or is this all original? Either way, well executed.

There seems to be a bug or something wrong with portraits.
I switched some portraits for special made ones. I acnnot pick them in Anarchy Wars but in all other champaigns and games.
anaxolomun 2 Mar, 2016 @ 10:16am 
Hi. I'm wondering if this is a bug. Whenever I go to Oakland, I spawn inside the Crime Mall, which I think should not be accessible immediately according to Sweet Steve. And isn't the 500 nuyen Dragon Sword sold by Mr. E too cheap? I'm suspecting its a bug as well.
ccwylde70 26 Feb, 2016 @ 1:25am 
One other minor gripe was finding the Steel Mill ( I think ) that I was supposed to meet Draz at; no quest marker meant obviously it had to be on the map somewhere. Hmmm, it couldn't POSSIBLY be past those 2 guards at the fence that turn me into instant MG chowder at point blank range when I try to go past them, could it ? Nah ! I mean, I'm at that point wearing the best armor I could find (think it was AC 4) but I'll be darned if those guards didn't flak me into fish food ! Took some experimenting to finally get past them, and sure enough, there was the entrance I was supposed to be going to.

Only had one bug issue in the game. Fighting in the Vampire Lord room (not Max) and found it would go redscreen when I killed the last enemy in there, saying I lost b/c one of my people died - except, none of my people were dead. Figured out I had to banish any summoned spirits before killing the last enemy. Odd, but that did the trick !

Fun battles though, in and out of this world :)
ccwylde70 26 Feb, 2016 @ 1:22am 
This was pretty darn good ! Had a lot of travel options, multiple vendors with a range of pricing variants, some interesting do-this-to-get-to-that elements. Fairly good computer AI / damage for Hard Setting as well. I'd rate it at least 4 of 5 stars (if I knew how to go about rating these things ...)

Only had a few hangups / annoyances with the game. Finding Drazzel's apartment was a bit irksome, and that early on was a bit of a hassle, having just figured there wouldn't be quest markers - it ended up being cool not having them later, since I'd found it odd in the original game that you'd 'know-where-to-go' through Fog of War. I guess I just wish Drazzel's apt. at that early stage of the game wasn't in the last place I looked (yeah, I know ...)

That's one minor gripe. Running out of my 1000 characters so I'll split this review here.

Niice, thanks
tafaridh  [author] 13 Jan, 2016 @ 3:32pm 
tragedy4you, at the end of the game your character is supposed to be back in Northside and your character should run toward the fountaind, then give you back control. If you can, try and replicate this the open the debugger (Ctrl+F1) and go to Story Vars and send me what your vars are. This will help me figure out what might have happend.
thnx :)
tafaridh  [author] 13 Jan, 2016 @ 3:25pm 
hi Rich and tragedy4you, there are 4 chars you can get to join you, but you can only have 1 gang leader.

TallBoy : talk to Sweet Steve in Oakland and go on his run. Then you'll be introduded to TallBoy. Do his two runs and he'll join you at the end.

Arlon : talk to Deseray in the apartments in Crafton and do her run. She will give you access to the Steelhammer compound where you can talk to Arlon and do his two runs.

Undertaker : Go to the Highwood Cemetary after completing the Carpenters Union run and you can go in the cabin. Accept the mission to help clear the cemetary.

Jacob : Talk to Jacob at the park in Northside and agree to help him. Go to Sweet Steve in Oakland and pay him for the info on Maxwell. Go back to Jacob and do his run.

Miggity, this story is ment to be explored. Frazzel's apartment is in the opposite corner of the map from Lone Star HQ, but the shipyard .
Firewatch 13 Jan, 2016 @ 12:33am 
In the area where Amos says kill Maxwell he says that you should have made friends and I've went around a few times and wasn't able to find anyone who was willing to talk to me. I'm probably just being a dumb but was wondering if thats actually possible.
Miggity 9 Jan, 2016 @ 6:07pm 
Okay seriously the lack of quest marker AND the lack of clues is annoying. Where is the dude's apartment??? I can't even get past the first mission...
tragedy4you 9 Jan, 2016 @ 5:11pm 
Love what you did there.
One Thing tho After the Mission where you exit from the other Dimension i exit and then i am stuck and can not move in any Way Other then that i enjoyed this Content very much. I coul not for the love of god find Clues to that Sideplot where you are supposed to help that Detective... Maybe thats just because im stupid tho.
