Rules
The essentials in short. The full rules, with examples and punishments, are in the wiki: read them before your first game.
Roleplay
- RPPlay a role: your character lives in Night City and knows nothing about a «game».
- NonRPDon't do what no real person would: no jumping off roofs for no reason, no circus at the precinct.
- MGDon't use what your character doesn't know: things from Discord, streams or out-of-game chat.
- Stream snipingNo watching someone's live stream to gain an in-game advantage.
- PGDon't play out the impossible or force an outcome on others.
Violence
- DMNo attacks without a roleplay reason.
- DBNo hitting or running people over with a vehicle.
- In green zones at banks, clinics, precincts and shops, weapons and fights don't work.
Fair play
- RMTNo selling or buying in-game values between players for real money: money, property, items, vehicles, accounts. Real-money purchases go only through the project's official donations.
- Cheats, third-party tools and exploiting bugs: a ban.
- Found a bug? Report it on F3, don't use it.
- One person: one Steam account.
Conduct
- Voice chat: Russian only.
- Only your own voice in voice chat: no Soundpad or similar programs, no music or sound effects.
- Settle disputes after the scene, with a report to staff.
- No insulting staff, and keep reports and complaints free of insults.
- Staff decisions can be appealed on the forum.
Not knowing the rules is no excuse. Staff may punish a violation even if it isn't described word for word.
