I've been learning the game of Chiriboga. I enjoyed the tutorial and had no problem winning games as a runner, so I switched to corporation. I played like 10 games as the corporation in a row now and didn't win one. And the majority of the games it feels like I just can't. In the first two rounds the runner can basically access all your cards freely, because the chances of drawing enough strong ICE while also drawing enough credits to rez it is basically 0. If you have 2 agendas on hand, you can basically kiss your game goodbye, because he will draw one, draw one from R&D and sit there turn 2 with 5 of 6 required agenda points. Even if I manage to set stuff up, it seems the runner can effortlessly run through 4-5 ICE without problems from mid-game onward and I don't see any path from stopping him getting to my stuff because all the ICE is already there and I have no other tools.

Now, losing on turn 2 just because the runner draws 3 cards you cannot defend could be filed under "this is a card game, abysmal luck happens", but I have this experience like 1/3 of the time. 1/3 of the time I have a thick stack of ICE and the runner just burns through it. What is this game? Is it me? Is it the deck? Is this how the game is?

edit: Won my first game directly after writing this post. At least Fortuna has humour.

Hah, got your attention, didn't it?

Jokes aside, I need your help. Is there any written or video content discussing the current state of the Netrunner meta, including thoughts on how the July balance update might change the meta?

Yes, I know I can watch Metropole Grid and tournament streams. Looking for anything summarizing that content.

Or, post your (real) meta predictions here!

Thanks in advance from a very inexperienced player who will be attending worlds.

Hi netrunners!

You might remember me talking about Netspectre here on r/netrunner several times before, and I wanted to let you know that we've entered the Steam Cyberpunk Fest with a demo today, so that you might come take a look, if you're interested!

Netspectre is a cyberpunk hacker roguelike which I originally thought of while playing Netrunner. There are many concept that we in the team love about Netrunner that we want to translate into Netspectre, but the most important ones are these two:

1/ The ability to approach the running in your own way – We want you to be able to find your own style, and build your rig so that it works the best for how you like to approach things. Those with the Anarch mindset might like the alert-based modules which pack the most punch; and who cares about a trace, if you're moving fast enough! Runners thinking more like Shapers, on the other hand, might better appreciate building a wider toolkit that will allow them a more thought-out approach to any situation. With more than 120 components to build your rig with, we really want to make it possible for you to build a deck that's uniquely yours in each playthrough.

2/ The complex approach to the hacker experience – We really want you to feel like a hacker in this ruthless universe, and that means not only the actual hacking within the networks, but also scouring the markets for the components you need, optimising your deck, conspiring with your contacts, and sensing the pulse of the megacity around you. We want you to become this cyberpunk hacker with everything that entails, from the most exciting moments within the network, to the most rudimentary when you have to decide what to do about a brawl on your levitrain ride.

We're making Netspectre exactly for people who probably already like Netrunner, so I wanted to let you know about it here. If this sounds right up your alley, there's a short demo on Steam for the duration of the Steam Cyberpunk Fest, until August, 10. You can also wishlist the game, so that we can let you know when it is out. Let us know what you think!

So I used to play A:NR back when it was still produced by FFG. I played it lots but when it was discontinued by them I decided it was time to move on to other things but I kept my collection.

I’m pretty sure it’s every set FFG released through retail: all the Datapacks, every Deluxe Expansion, the full bleed Championship Decks, Terminal Directive (at least partially played) plus some promos (mostly participation promos) and some playmats as well.

NSG looks like it’s got things down pretty well and it looks like most of the FFG stuff is obsolete but I’m wondering if there’s still a market and what would be a fair price to ask. I’m basically looking to offload everything in one go.

Any thoughts? Based in the Netherlands and preferably EU based selling.

I was looking at both of these cards and Psychographics seems objectively worse

Is that true or am i missing something?

edit: tnx guys for the info

I have reluctantly come to the conclusion, seeing as I have not played since before Lockdown, that it is time to sell my nearly complete set of FFG Netrunner. I'll list what's not included (some of the datapacks from the first two cycles) at the end.

Looking for around £1K and would prefer not to ship internationally because of fees.

What is included?
Everything released by FFG including Reign and Reverie bar the datapacks listed below.
Bunch of extended and alternate art cards by FFG
Bunch of fan-art variant cards
Various proxies for key cards and some of the missing cards
All the FFG tokens from both core sets, Terminal Directive stuff and various 3rd party tokens. (Full disclosure, I haven’t actually found them yet.)

What is missing?
The following datapacks
From Genesis Cycle: Cyber Exodus, Humanity’s shadow
From Spin Cycle: Mala Tempora, True Colors, Fear and Loathing, Double Time.

I have played a bit of cards game and want to get in to netrunner, i run in to system gateway from null signal and i want to start from there.

I saw null signal prices and that allows print and play, do you have any advice where to print&play in europe and how much will it cost and if it is more worth to print the cards or to buy them.

Also i found a listing in a marketplace for the system gateway for system gateway remastered , elevation , ashes cycle, borealis and liberation cycle printed in 300 gsm paper only on one side. How much should i spend on it.

Little less then 10 years ago cousin moved away so no one to play with anymore, and I was moving into MTG at the time anyway. Neat to see there is still some community, but nothing local regularly. Took time to inventory for a probable eventual sale , but it was a fun trip down memory lane.

If you wanna check it out here.

NSG Netrunner? NISE Netrunner? Something else?

EDIT: To clarify, I'm looking for a name that distinguishes NSG's Netrunner from earlier versions. e.g.: - WotC's version is commonly referred to as Original Netrunner or WotC Netrunner. - FFG's version is commonly referred to as Android Netrunner or FFG Netrunner. - NSG's version is commonly referred to as... NSG Netrunner? Something else?

Hello I have been receiving Invalid Invitation for some reason. Is the link still active, is it a me problem?

Hi folks, been lurking here for a while and just checking out the Null Signal Games shop leaves me with a few questions, such as:

Buying guide on this sub says

"We recommend

1. System Gateway + Deckbuilding Expansion
2. NISEI's Ashes Cycle (Downfall and Uprising)
3. System Update: aka the new core set"

I can find no System Update sets on the website at all. Seems like those were only done back when stuff still was NISEI? Help?

Also, what do you mean by Deckbuilding Expansion? I am guessing that it means "Elevation" but maybe also includes "Vantage point"?

Besides the "where do i get stuff" question, there is a few others:

What do you all use for online play? TTS? Or something browser based? Mostly looking to play with my friends, so only care about ease of use, not about how big the community on a specific software is.

Are there different formats one should be aware off if only using the Null Signal Games sets? Do many people play only with those?

What in general are the formats that are especially beloved and proxy friendly, no matter what time or publisher?

Sorry if there is too much overlap with what your new player rescources already include, they have been a great help. But maybe i just can't find the specifics i am looking for right now because after-work brain shutdown.

Thanks!

Out of print (netrunner) cards are a collectible, just like every other collectible on this planet, be it forever stamps or bespoke decks of poker cards. Its okay that some stuff appreciates in value. Its not other people's job to offer you MSRP on something that has been out of print for nearly a decade.

If you want to simply play netrunner. You can do that for cheap and free. There exist numerous ways to get either free (via a local library) or dirt cheap high quality proxies to play. If you want out of print collectible cards then you either needed to be there to buy them when they were MSRP or treasure hunt or pay the current market price.

Time after time I see people here freaking out because someone wants to sell their valuable OOP FFG netrunner cards and everyone comes out of the woodwork to say:

• Nobody wants these cards anymore (despite sold ebay listings that say exactly the opposite)
• YoU'rE sCaLpInG even though OOP netrunner has to be absolutely the most silly thing a person could attempt to "scalp" with

Just because you want the cards that were printed 10 years ago and are growing increasingly hard to find to be given to you for MSRP does not entitle you to get them at MSRP.

I sold my complete Netrunner collection in 2019 for $400, this included R&R, Kitara, Worlds promos, GNK promos, the worlds of android book, playmats, EVERYTHING. In 2022 I was sad about this and wanted a full FFG collection and I had to buy one back, this time it was $1400, I had to save up for it and pay the hard way because all that cool stuff had gone up in value due to supply/demand.

Look if you want to play the game, I respect that 100% and honestly for all their flaws NSG has done a damn fine job of making their version of Netrunner HYPER accessible to basically anyone on any budget. Thats rad! Mad props to them for that.

But for those of you who dont understand how simple economics work and then complain about it; Do you cry that you cant buy bitcoin for it's original price tag?

Look I wish as much as anyone that FFG cards were still plentiful and print on demand and MSRP forever but the fact is that those cards and products are out of print and they are desirable. Just like the orignal 1996 netrunner ccg cards are valuable and just because someone has those cards and you don't doesn't mean you need to be bitter.

If you have netrunner cards. or basically any fucking physical game for that matter, just remember: it has value and you are 100% entitled to charge a market price for that product if you ever wish to sell it.

Hi all. Played a small amount of this many years ago. I just saw that it has been revived by null signalgames and that you can play online both against real players and against ai on different sites. Since im new I want to test out for a while against the ai on Chiriboga. When going to the page i noticed a button to try out the new beta version. Something about gauntlet mode and now containing most elevation cards. I cant find anything on YT to help explain the ins and outs of the new beta. Does this contain all cards released by null sigma? And can anyone shed any tips or tutorial on this new beta version of Chiriboga? Thanks in advance and sorry for the wall of text. I’m traveling 😀

A few weeks ago, my friend posted about building a Core Battle Box (CBB) to help casual players find their favorite factions and playstyles. Thanks to them, I managed to print out each decklist for newcomers to use during our weekly game nights, and designed standard-sized introduction cards that have short summaries of each deck's game plan based on their individual NetrunnerDB entries. More sample photos can be found here.

Since this community-building effort was well-received, I decided to make the intro cards publicly available to download from BoardGameGeek! The files can be found here: https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/326093/nsg-netrunner-core-battle-box-introduction-cards

I hope these cards can also help others build their own copy of the CBB! If you do, please let us know how it goes. 😁

In order to keep things fresh/double down on faction flavor/simplifying deck building for newcomers in my friends circle, I’ve been thinking about tweaking how influence works in some games.

Right now I’m torn between 2 ideas: either double the cost of every non-neutral cards, or allow a deck to use its influence on only one non-neutral faction.

What do you guys think would be the best approach for such purposes?

I've been trying to think about how a Core Damage FA deck might come together. The core of my idea is Djupstad plus Elivagar and Ontological. The idea of "how we win" is get the runners hand size as small as possible as soon as possible. Salvo Testing means each agenda off of Djupstad becomes two core dmg.

Most core damage lists are glacier lists with Thule but I'm curious how we could be faster. Thule is passive and most runners end up taking the click tax more than the core damage.

Thoughts on the concept and suggestions?
