Freelancer question about bases

Hello,

I have a few questions. I have been keeping track of Freelancer but not in the past several months. Last I heard in the bases and buildings you would be able to walk aroun in a 1st/3rd person mode and even some talk about some gun play for certain misions. I recently lokoed at the interface video and it is all point and click.....WTH happened?

And..... I saw someone mention they have played the game, is there a demo out yet? And how solid is the March release date? Thanks a lot.

march is looking pretty good
there is no demo out but a select few people have received the pr beta test
ive herd rumers that a demo would be released before the game.

in freelancer you cannot walk around on planets, you can however select locations as to where to go (bar, hanger,comodities ect...) and yes you can talk to npc's but to what extent i do not know.

Excellent link, Stinger, as always. I think it should be required reading...

Hmm, yes it's all point and click, and for the last two years or so (since I've been following it) that is how it was supposed to be, I think. The only thing I remember to the contrary is being able to answer questions by moving your head left/right or up/down but that was just a consideration a long time ago. As for the release date, it's rock solid. Definitely coming out

I've played it A lot. BTW that Texas bit was a joke.

Tech, I am sorry for the comment in "Riddle Me..." Tread so no need to insult me more. I mean you wrote a couple of times it was a joke...

Well, at any rate it will still be great I am sure. I really, really X1,000,000 hope it keeps the feel and more so of Privateer. I can't wait to play it.

After all this time I think that the release should be pretty solid but you never know with any video game.

Cool, FAQ I;ll have to check it out.

Just in case someno whats to post their great knoledge here have there been any other major changes or things come up like system, trade, flight, fighting etc. etc.

MS usually releases great games so lets hope they keep it up with Freelancer.
