i know! make the death star! =)

Freelancer Alpha 1-1, we have you on our sco.... HOLY ****!!!!
*Manhatten is reduced to a pile of dust

how about a mission to take out the deathstar, or another really really big powerful stationary station. Skimming along the surface of a large station really is fun. Especially if you can randomly launch torps at it every know and then.

yeah. you could use the nomad 'entry way' the one that is just a metal surface for the textures.. and theres already a 'trench run' kind of affair in it also.. last few lvls or so.

Lol, well as themes go new designs for ship would be just be possible ways in which each nations technology it all up 2 what u come up with, jazz have u done ne 3D models b4?

What i would like to see would be new capital ships and lots of them. The balance of power in the FL universe seems to favor fighters and torp equipped heavy fighters. More specific roles would be nice too such as space superiority fighters with good weapons and maneuverbility while interceptors would be fast and carry heavier missle loads. Torpedo bombers would be slow but heavily armored and the cap ships should have anti cap ship weapons such as torpedo bays and beam cannons.

well all i can say to that is Osiris' Elite Guard (Team creating The New Order Mod) have just brought on a dedicated 3D ship disigner /texturer so u can xpect a whole host of new ships when this comes out, and i graentee u they are all 100% new, no copies so you'll be in for a suprise.

Yeah ive had a few good ideas for specific ship tasks.
Like an energy sword that only has a range of 50-100m but does alot of damage (not sure how much energy they should drain though) because of there range they are only afective against Cruisers and battleships.
And anotherone is, yeah a heavy torpedo bomber, ive got a picture of that as well.

...where is my light pen?
