|
 |
I'm about to reinstall this amazing game and i was wondering: since the game is 5 years old, is there a patch or a mod released which makes it look graphically better ?
links would be appreciated.
thanks.

Well, I played only single player and I found it amazingly boring and repetitive. The good ol' Privateer was FAR better.
What I liked, on the other hand, were the great graphics. On the gameplay side, though, I was very disappointed.

on topic: i don't know if there is a patch for better graphics. i searched for a patch that could do just like that but i couldn't find it. i am having problems with sounds in the game...
off topic: one of the best games i have ever player! too bad there is no Freelancer 2.... ( ( (

A freelancer 2 would be GREAT!
I had so many hours fun online (and offline) with Freelancer.
I hate you.

did anyone else think that freelancer had a VERY open ending? i mean open to the point where u think that the game was made with a franchise in mind? i remember feeling like i was only getting half the story, and that a sequel would show up within a 2 or so years.... but nothing ever came...

dunno never played much of the single player campaign, i just went straight to multiplayer with some friends and we had alot of fun pirating the spacelanes.
i would have imagined the game was more than popular enough for a sequel although i have no idea how well it sold, there seemed to be loads of clan servers around

I never played it multiplayer, guess I missed out because I found the singleplayer pretty bland.

To be fair, I'd rather spark a discussion with people who KNOW rather than go trawling (often) old websites.

I've just downloaded and installed this.
There's no servers?
Anyone know of any free ones? if there is any?

The game is 5-6 years old, so obviously not. At least not official ones.

one thing is discussion another is asking for links for mods for 5 yo game which can be easily found via g00gle, hey but that's just me
it was maybe a cool game before but all those fight's getting pretty repetitive in time, even with mods which can be pretty bugged up it's still same game that it was 5 ya
for example i just tried to do some deliveries but got asked to drop cargo every time i entered new system, which is pretty lame considering i was in good relationship with everyone

Considering some cargo is illegal in some places, it makes sense for the police to scanya.

never heard of water being illegal
and i wasn't scanned before i asked to drop a cargo so it's obvious that they are the pirates with whom i'm on a good side
it's like robing your relatives, doesn't make sence

Plenty of pirate factions around, could've been a different faction which was unfriendly with your friendly pirate faction, thus unfriendly with you.

Freelancer works perfectly under Vista AND Windows 7 here, bud. I was playing online (TNG servers) a few months ago.

Last time I checked, the TNG servers are still pretty active (can find TNG from the Starfyre link posted above)
