    Thank you for that &quot;cockpit&quot;, it made my day. I just watched that vid from official site and those struts are what I´ve been waiting for. <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    OH shut the **** up already... 3rd personview is nothing compaired to 1st personview... we had this conversation like 3 months ago! And that pole.. yes it was great idea, and that result was just like I expected. This should be matter of opinnion but really, you say that you have more advantages to use 3rd personview in combat.. I say its cheating, you say that in 1st personview (something) blocks the view, well isn´t that ship in away when you play from 3rd person!? Well I think you know my opinnion so lets leave it to that... don´t bother to answer!!

    FFS... Why this punishent has to go on anylonger!? April, so it the same date that in Germany. Can´t they just like fly those Freelancers in here and get them to stores. Its one more month waiting to be done! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_sad.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    I think those who found something from the game, could put them into some spesific place, and if you don´t wanna know, don´t read that section! Thats why there is spoiler warnings or spoiler sections in forum! I just don´t see these as a spoiler, harmless fun to see what else easter eggs are out there!

    How about this for an Eastern egg!? In Titan AE, when that all begining, destroyng of the world thing is done, and story goes to &quot;today&quot; part. Maincharacter is working on that carbage steel, cutting it to pieces and others are transporting it to... somewhere for better use I supose! The place build in to asteroid where they go to eat etc. after that, its called: TAU 14 <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Edited by - Saint on 19-01-2003 02:43:51

    I don´t think you have to do all that to get a great space sim with joystick support... but what you said about FL... Well this is a matter of opinnion but I personaly like that these RPG elements are rising from under all that fighting, shooting and flying etc. FPS is most popular game type, and if I say that even playing FPS and hanging out in IRC, chatting to other players, playing in clans, trying to be as good as possible. All that is a kind of Roleplaying, and thats what makes them so good and popular games. (Q3, UT, CS etc...) If you can capture even some of that feeling you can experience in those kind of games, and put it into space and into single play, give the freedom that FL is going to do.. well I can´t think of a better game. ...and only after that we are going to start talking about MP in FL that is going to blow your mind. If FL isn´t a sim, well then its not, but its still gonna be something great, and I have seen hardcore spacesim fans say this exact same thing, so don´t give up hope just yet... <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    That DethStrykes idea brings on my mind something I´ve talked here earlier, Clans in FL. Battles or missions, that should be done in a group, agains other clans/groups or just teambased missions in co-op. I don´t know exactly how it would be possible, or how it should be done, cause I don´t know what exacly you can do in FL MP. But if this game is going to win hearts and minds of lot of people, I think that Clans is going to be born, and teambased gaming is coming to stay.

    First of all, If a character is saved on server only, like in those megamultiplayergames... it would make that MP little different than I had in mind. Not in a bad way, but different. It would definetly feel more like an rpg, only problem would be that there is limited number of playerd per server, and I think that thats why it would be quite anoing if you wanna play your character and server is full :/ Second thing, about making those servers is that if TLR makes a server or two, their actual location is very important, in europe if you try to play on server that is in US, you have ping like 300 (depending on connection but even my 1mb adsl give pings that are starting from 200-&gt; ). I´ve played 3d shooters in net like 4 years now and I know it sucks, Its way too much to even try to play... It would be fun to have, like Tach said, lot of servers under TLR name all over the world, but I wouldn´t do &quot;north, south, etc..&quot; What about Rheinland, Liberty, Bretonia, Kusari and maybe name them (if theres more servers) after some factions... It would be so fun to play with these people who I have waited this game with, and shared ups and downs of the game, and lot of other things, here in forum or in IRC (#freelancer rulez... hey Vince, Jalla, Star etc.. I´m on tv..<img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> ) I personally try to get server runing in scandinavia (Finland maybe), and I´m willing to pay from it also, if that cost isn´t too big. I´m wrenting a CS server in to use of my clan at the moment and its like 50€ per month, so I think if/when FL enters my life, I bet my money on it <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Edited by - Saint on 18-01-2003 22:56:41

    Sound like a great idea! But Wiz is right, if some missions would be something spesific like &quot;find a person&quot; it would be nice if that person really would be in that game <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>. If mission would be more like exploration, &quot;go to see whats out there, and let us know&quot; like unmapped territory, and make a map of it or something like that, then it would be a different case. Damn if there would be an editor... there could be missions done by other members, and then they would be signed to some member, by that email system or something. Download mission, or planet or what ever, and go to check that adventure out.

    So you are that beautiful girl that all these guys took like a month to get over!? <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Someone already welcomed you, but I would like to invite you to visit freelancer IRC chat, thats where this FL thing goes crazy, and I don´t think that there have been any (sad but true <img src=smilies/icon_smile_sad.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>) females in there...yet! irc.portalive.com #freelancer (just incase) Congrats to Sting!!! great job, keep on rocking!!! <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    I don´t think that this outcoming demo is a spoiler.. I think theres couple of random missions, or then its MP demo... and that release, like Tach said, they promised it before but I don´t think its a problem if it comes late, until the game is ontime <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    Jalla Special thanks to fans, I think that this is a great group, and is gonna be in the future also! Like a one big happy family <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    There are lot of stories of those names for some places... Someones home town and or something else familiar. I think they in DA find inspiration from movies and from reallife, that makes it interesting for us, and them! Great point you got there, sounds like you found something! <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    Isn´t this in some other threat also.. or is it just me!? :/ Well joystick or not... FL is going to rule more than anything has ever ruled before... I hope <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    Goddamn... I don´t have those redbluegreen gogles. Now I´m really pissed! Gotta go and buy a Donald Duck magazine or Kellogs cornflakes, I think with otherone there should come a pair or 3d gogles!

    I think that truly realistic space is far too big and distances are so long that it wouldn´t make very ecxiting spacefightingsimulationadventure game... but you shouldn´t make too much sacrifices over realism. Something like those darksides of a planet or rolling planets (not included to FL) are something that makes life possible and I think aren´t &quot;too&quot; realistic to add in to the game.. any game! What I´ve heard and saw, space in FL is just in right size and shape to be playable, interesting and still realistic enough.
