Yep. But he over complicates it a bit. You literally install the game, no cd exe and the mod. That is it.

always wanted to do a light fighter only playthrough, may as well do it now before d4 releases.

The line I never forget is "we don't run this base, but we have an understanding with the people who do". You hear that line or a variation of it dozens of times

I am going to do the same also, as I always went down the trading route.

Is the HD Edition (annoying it installs a new version) compatible with mods such as Discovery?

Not sure if compatible. I only want the vanilla experience this time.

Yeah, that's the one i got. It's weird, I was expecting it to patch the existing install, not install a new version under the user's local appdata lol.

Vanilla is fine for single player, but multiplayer, its got to be Discovery.

I have no interest in MP myself.

I spent many months failing my degree on games like this. Trade routes set up for easy cash, managing multiple ships with weapon stores at FP9 trading Nomad weapons and 1v1 PVP tournaments with systems full of people watching and taking part.

I've never played modded apart from the admin mods used to monitor the server, was always vanilla.

In the really serious days I'd have two PC's doing traderuns while playing clan life on the main PC.

Such an epic game, so many hours lost.

 

[arknor]

Don't forget theres secret bases hidden away in asteroids etc in this game

 

[Cantankerous]

Loved Freelancer when it came out and there's really nothing that's come close to it. Rebel Galaxy and Everspace2 are probably the closest but don't have the same feel.

 

[Noxia]

AS much as I remember I loved it, I cannot remember a SINGLE thing about it.

 

[StriderX]

It's such a shame that the last act was pretty much dissolved, but then it would never have gotten released I suppose.

I came across a game called rebel Galaxy Outlaw. It isn't to bad. Has trading and decent combat. Has s Western vibe going on. I enjoyed it when I played it.

Just reinstalled this, really enjoying it.

Installed the Freelancer HD mod the other day. Mostly fine but it does seem a bit buggy with the mouse. If, for instance, you drag the mouse all the way to the right or left side (probably top & bottom too) it resets to the centre of the screen, which is REALLY annoying.

 

[Noxia]

I just found out this can be downloaded legally as it's abandonware. So I have the iso and am going to try the graphics mod

 

[TNA]

Completed it in just over 12 hours. I could play on doing more freelance missions to buy a better ship, but as I did not want to trade this time I can't be asked.

See you guys again in a decades time. Hopefully StarCitizen will be out by then
