Uhm, look....

Its nothing like freelancer - similarities = space, commodities and missions.
There is no MP, the game hasnt been coded for MP so it wont be there, if it is hacked into it it will be a simple team MP 6 player type of thing.

This is not how freelancer was supposed to be. If you buy it be prepared for it.

You have one ship which you can upgrade, thats it. nothing else. Also you will need to have half decent graphics cards, however, TBH its not needed in terms of super special affects, it is the way they have coded the game rather than the great effects generated by these requirements.

Im not knocking the game for what it is, but it is not even a patch on FL so for the FL2 or the "this is what it should have been" people, this falls well short of the bar in fact it borders on ludicrous.
If it was marketed as another space sim/etc type game it would not have half the interest it has, unfortunately, Lancers felt that they wanted to "big" the game on the website and Im afraid that there are far better "indie" space sim/type games than this one which they could have lent their support to.

Lets not hype this game anymore.

No this game will be like X2 and X3...nice games... but it lacks Multiplayer...something essential i may ad for current day games

anyways if you want a good online space sim try Eve-online .... however it was to much simulation for me ...and quickly abandoned it :lol:
