I was just looking around on the web and happened to see the FL homepage.
I really dislike that microsoft haven't worked more with it, and by the look of things
FL2 does'nt look like a release for a long time, FL is a very popular and unpopular game, what i mean is that its become a big game in some countries, in the rest, they dont even sell them.

Just hope they release FL2

'told ya it was boring'

please don't use smilies in the subject line

I have no hint of hope left that FL2 will come out. I doubt they've even considered doing it.

No sense being pessimistic, It wouldn't work anyway.

They better release FL2...or I'll be machete-ing away their hands...

BTW what's your problem with smilies?

Fri Jan 21, 2005 4:24 pm by Eh_Steve

you can use smilies, just not in the title line, It throws it off, and is more asthetically pleasing.

Indeed. Having smilies in the subject line might destroy online society as we know it!

I dont know how good a Freelancer 2 would be.....
if they got a REALY REALLY good guy that makes storys uber i dont think it can be as good

Jabez, you're right. We would need a serious Tom Clancy storyteller to rival the stories out there. The only thing is people (I included) don't guy Freelancer for the gripping storyline, they buy it for open-endedness. So instead of having just one main storyline and the boring open-endedness, we need a thing to generate smaller, shorter and more player-dependent storylines. For example, you take a job from a corsair base, you do the mission perfectly, but something else is found. This leads you on a wild goose chase across the omega systems trying to find a vitally important enemy of the corsairs. Something where you won't want to get up to pee while playing.

Also, Jabez, I don't think you got the memo. "Uber" has been banned for 2005.

Another thing: Shouldn't this be in a Freelancer forum instead of Off Topic?

i know what you mean about the side missions..but i still like good storys

But freelancer has a big Replay value so if they make it with better grafs and bigger systems ill buy it

Eh.steve...I like that idea...i dont know much about game programming, but wouldnt it be difficult to do something like that? Or at least take ages?
lol Maybe they are doing that with fl2 and thats the reason its taking so long.

FL2 is a very much needed game. FL revolutionized a genre by adding simplicity, accessibility and a brilliant control system. However, now games like X2 may doom the genre with horrifying prehistoric controls that make the game unplayable...

EDIT- And no, it's not as interesting as this!
