Question?

Can you fire att other players in MP? and if so are there any restrications?
And in SP the AI always target you! is it the same thing in MP?
And is there anyone playing the orginial Freelancer or is everyone playing mods?

You should change your thread title to "Questions" . In MP, you can fire on servers that have PvP enabled. Most servers do not allow PvP in the New York system, so that is usually the only restriction.

The AI is programmed to target the player moreso than other NPCs. If you are flying in a group the AI will target the group.

Some people play mods, but many people still play Version 1.0 (standard, vanilla) Freelancer. You can usually tell what, if any, mods the server is running by the version number.

Depends while they can dodge most anythign lf's still lack fire power. SOme people in lf's can kill vhf's others can't. Higher lvl players are targeted more by npc's than lower lvl players

huh? think not, the NPC's go by the Reputation not level. So someone just hostile is less likely to be attacked than someone fully hostile, no matter there level.
