    The "best" Light Fighter is the Drake, it´s much more maneuverable then the rest. And if you´re using Light Fighters, it´s maneuverability, not power you´re after.

    Yeah, stuff like that can be fatal. Then again, i wouldn´t go to the Badlands myself either with anything faster than 600...

    Let´s see if Ad-Aware brings that one up... Yep, I do get matias@bfast[2.txt Anyways, most of the cookies that get identified as spyware don´t really do anything, Ad-Aware doesn´t have any info on that one though. But what most of those things do is observe what kinds of websites you visit, and then provide you with advertisements related to those. Harmless, but annoying. Still, I´d like a moderator´s/site owners speech on this. I don´t particularly enjoy getting tracking cookies on my comp.

    Yes. When Juni first introduces you to him she says "Trent, meet captain Marcus Walker". Heh, that´s easy to pick up, but have any of you paid enough attention to get King´s first name? (I do know it, but noticed only on my second play-through)

    My favorite song at the moment is probably Metallica´s "One", and Metallica is my favorite band too (or at least albums from Ride The Lightning to Black).

    Heh, Ziering looks a lot like Trent. Also, it´s funny that <A href=´http://imdb.com/name/nm0919117/´ Target=_Blank>Orillion´s voice actor</a> isn´t even black, and looks like nothing Orillion sounds like. Even though I had watched &quot;The Pretender&quot;, a series where he was the main character, I didn´t recognize the voice until I read about it on the back of the manual.

    I´d prolly take ´em to see Sigma-17 and 19. Could show them the FP 7 ruins <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    Can a cruiser even fit through the rings? Anyways, I´ve never lost to him either in an unmodded game. I´ve flown him with a Cavalier, Crusader, Dagger and Legionnaire at least. Although, all of them except the crusader are pretty fast &gt;_&gt;

    A good general tip for finding bases that you aren´t exactly sure where they are is to fly to their general loction (like north from Manhattan) and turn on the patrol paths for the status the owners of the base are to you. Then just fly to the point where the patrol paths meet and voila, instant base or jumphole.

    Maybe it´s uh, lightyears? <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Okay, maybe not. I bet it´s the &quot;Freelancer unit that measures distance&quot;, and the letter representing it is &quot;m&quot;. &quot;K&quot; means kilo of course, which means 1000. So a &quot;K&quot; is thousand &quot;freelancer units that measure distance&quot;. Happy?

    Actually, I find Paint Shop Pro pretty lacking compared to Photoshop. I don´t have any experience using it, but I´d recommend <A href=´http://www.gimp.org´ Target=_Blank>&quot;GIMP&quot;</a>. At least according to the website, it´s capable of doing almost anything that Photoshop can do. And it´s free.

    Not much. Completed Freelancer´s story mode yesterday, been a long time since I last did that, but I guess I won´t be playing it any longer for a while. Installed Fallout Tactics, it´ll keep me busy for a while. And then playing Warcraft 3 happily against the computer every now and then.

    Not bad names, eh Steven? Hm. Maybe Finnish pilots would fly space tacos, I mean N-Gages <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Nah, I guess us scandinavians were integrated as allies to the Russians and killed along Earth.

    For that mission once you get to Quintaine´s, you´ll fight those Rheinlanders, and then stat flying away. You´ll head for the Leeds Jump Hole, fight a few Rheinies along the way, and then go to Leeds. Then the next mission begins. Although, there´s no way you can play the whole game without sound (or well, it is possible, not just very fun) so I recommend back-upping your savegame (my documentsmy gamesfreelancer), uninstalling and reinstalling.

    Just yesterday I beat it with ease. I was piloting a Legionnaire at the moment, and I didn´t even see Hovis during the race... And I´d suggest 3rd person mode, since you can see the next ring better.

    The &quot;Nomad&quot; creature itself is a long tentacle with a head with some sharp teeht or stuff. They´re incredibly weak, so they go inside people, using the mouth. And then they can create these blue spaceships around them. <img src=´http://www.msnusers.com/_Secur…pg?dc=4675430654172956587 ´> Escape Velocity:Nova is finally out for PC! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Get it <A href=´http://www.ambrosiasw.com/games/evn/´ Target=_Blank>here</a>

    I think that the turrets should just automatically point themselves at the selected target, and fire at right-click. <img src=´http://www.msnusers.com/_Secur…pg?dc=4675430654172956587 ´> Escape Velocity:Nova is finally out for PC! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Get it <A href=´http://www.ambrosiasw.com/games/evn/´ Target=_Blank>here</a>
