wasnt there a thread about it earlier, where it was revealed that it doesnt even have multiplayer? So by me, the most important thing in freelancer is missing.

Yeah Stoert this has been threaded at least twice, once by myself and I think we've all come to the cummulative agreement that it won't have the depth of Freelancer simply because it has no multiplayer in it. Take a look at X2 and X3, they both sport kickin graphics and have more than one ship to fly but without the multiplayer option it just fails to be a striving force to be reconed with. If either of those games had multi then Freelancer would prolly be seeing it's end of days but with Darkstar One coming out looking like the X games with no multi, I think it's foolish to boast that it is the unofficial sequel to Freelancer. They made a big mistake saying that. On a more serious note, for being what, 3 years old, Freelancer still for a space adventure sim still to me looks really good and plays way better than most of that cr*p out there and I wish Microsoft would get off their a** and make the sequel using the same engine or close with updated graphics and whatnot in game.................

Unlike Freelancer, DS1 doesn't lock you into one area where you have to assassinate some guy wandering around space or deliver a package from point A to point B until you gain an arbitrary amount of experience points, leading to the same pattern in the next solar system.
....the game never gets close to the churn that plagued Freelancer.
I've got only one thing to say.... ..

Don't download the demo though. It's in german. lol I waited 45 minutes to find out that everything was in German. The graphics are pretty good though. The plot also seems interesting; however, the plot was a bit like freelancer. Seems like the game might b pretty good even though there is no online capability.
Yeah I found a mod on lancersreactor.com to change the writing and subtitles to english. So I played the mod and it actually isn't that bad even though it is missing multiplayer.

Could this be FreeLancer 2 in disguise???
