nomads/opening cutscene?

Thu Mar 06, 2003 11:06 pm by r0bman

I noticed something the first time I booted up Freelancer... if you look through the screenshots on LancersReactor, the CGI category shows shots of the Nomad ship, the sun exploding, etc etc. Did they decide to cut the whole Nomad/Sun detonation from the opening cutscene? Or did I totally mis something...

in the game now sol still exists just and they never met the nomads and what not.

Might this suggest that a third installment might surface, presenting us with the opportunity to retake SOL? Hmmm? Hmmm? I don't know. I haven't beaten the game yet, so for all I know, you could find out at the end that SOL is destroyed or something. NO clues here.

You mean they cut the part with Sol getting blown up?

Yup! It kinda ticked me off because that was the most graphically spectacular part of the original intro. The shockwave was FREAKING AWESOME! I wish I had a surround sound system on the computer JUST for that.

to be honest, i thought it was the russian coallition, after all they had jump drives first

How about this: the nomads try to take over earth instead, blows up the sun, then proceed to reclaim the sirius sector armed with coalition weapons... And to top it off, the remaining coalition survivers have to cooperate with the alliance, uniting the whole man kind... blah blah blah...
