Demo wormholes?

Why does the demo even have the wormholes if they don't even work? it seems like just a trap for some helpless person to try and go through.
Or do they work and I just somehow got my demo copy messed up?

oh and can someone give me the best trade route for Liberty space?

In the demo, your restricted to New York system.

I understand that, but I am talking about the unstable wormholes, not the ones with a gate. Is it the same? it seems kind of strange to make an area that you can get stuck in without hope of doing anything but loading a save.

Where are you running into them at? Other than a mod, I have never seen any other than the jump holes.

I must be using the wrong word then, I am using the demo at the moment.

There is a portal of some sort to the Texas system located near the badlands in the New York system. In the demo you can dock with this portal to go to the Texas system. However you are stuck in a tunnel of some sort right after docking. It does not seem that it ends so I can only wonder why the creators of the game allowed you to go near and get stuck in it.

A slight bug in the demo version then. Int he full gam it goes to texas, and there is another jump hole inthe area that is a in system jump with only an outlet. It too is in the badlands.

Actually, in the full game you are restricted to the New York system until you do a number missions for Juni and she gives you the access codes to the jump gates. The demo duplicates that (except you never get the codes).

As to the jump holes, it would seem that being natural they should work -- but they aren't designed that way. They won't work until you reach the point where you get the access codes to the jump gates either.

One question, what are you doing playing the demo version in the first place? Just go out and buy the full version and you have access all areas (after the first few missions of course).

I did go out and buy the full version I was just warming up my mind to freelancer tactics while I waited for it to get to my house.
