Frost-Works: Freelancer - New Universe Mod!

Freelancer :: NEW UNIVERSE

Freelancer new universe is a mod designd to elevate and expand to playing experience of Freelancer.

It will allow the players to experience parts of the game that were cut from the full game, unlocking hidden ships and sectors whilst at the same time add completley original ships and sectors to play with.

A major objective is also CAPITAL SHIP PLAY! adding new playability to the game whilst alowing players to make the jump to the big boys if they see fit. Players will be able to fight in gunboats, destroyers, cruisers, battleships and the new, completeley original class of ship - The BattleCruiser!

Capital ships will be able to move throughout the universe, freeley without restrction, being able to dock at stations made for their specific bulk and size.

We feel, as many others, the Capital ships were just too slow, too sluggish and too weak to provide a real threat so apart from tweaking them slightly we have added 6 new, completley different, set of weapons for each capital ship class - which will be changed and tweaked too suit their factions tastes.

Asside from Capital ships we will also be including brand new Fighters of all sizes and shapes for all factions, including some of the pirate factions.

the Pirates will also gaina new capital ship - a ship not designd for long battles but quick heavy fire power hit and run missions, where the extra punching power is needed to take on whatever they like.

The mod will also bring the 4 factions into an intersteller war. Rhienaland and Kusari have allied themselves against the Liberty and Bretonian Navys in a fearce war that threatens to tear the Sirius sector a new scar (and also be alot of fun to play). Players will spend their first few levels in a brand new starting system, where they can choose what faction they wish to fight for by taking up missions for them. Once chosen they can pick a starting ship in that faction and move on through a one way trip, via wormhole, to a system within the faction of their choosing.
