Freelancer Drinking Game!

Whats more fun than playing Freelancer? Playing Freelancer Drunk!



The Freelancer Drinking Game



Take a drink everytime-

-Trent tries to be macho

-you find a new jump hole shortcut after shipping the long way for a week.

-Juni's eyebrow impossibly contorts

-Freelancer shamelessly rips of dialouge from Star Wars

-King talks endlessly about plot details

-King pretends to receive a communication from HQ and runs off

-Trent is obviously lying about being 'New here'

-you can hear the audio track break as words are inserted. Twice if it's plot dialouge.

-you get pulled into a trade lane unintentionally because your flying in formation with a trade convoy.

-your trade lane gets disrupted. Twice if they decide not to attack you afterall. Three times if they decide not to attack you because your 'Too tough'

-you accidentally sell commodities at less than you purchesed them for.

-you decide to attack a convoy carrying toxic waste just for kicks. Twice if you get killed in the attempt.

-Juni flirts. Twice if it's Trent.

-Trent's Dad makes an ass of himself. Twice if he nearly gets slapped.

-a station blows up.

-you are given an impossibly difficult task (ie Destroy the Rhineland battle fleet)

-you effortlessly frag a ship 15 levels superior to yours

-you are reminded of Escape Velocity

-you are reminded of Terminal Velocity (later levels)

-Alpha 5 dies

-you land on a shipyard the doesn't sell ships

-Rhinlanders speak with American accents. Twice if they speak with British accents.

-you join sides with a faction after killing hundreds of their pilots and no one holds it against you. Twice if they offer you a ridiculously cheap ship.

-you are forced to buy a gruesomely ugly ship in order to complete a mission. Twice if the ship is obsolete by the next level. Three times if you can't afford your old one back.

And finally- Finish the bottle if you get shot down by Fuzzy Modem


Happy drinking. Feel free to add.

Well, being that stupid is worth emptying the whole freakin' bottle!

(sorry to all the peeps who actually made that happen to themselves)

Actually, occasionally it'l glitch and the AI will just keep me going into the dock instead of switching to the docking scene.

you'd be broke just buying the drinks

Post Mon Mar 31, 2003 6:32 am

>> 5 times if an npc with your name flies by <<

- Finish your drink if the NPC with your name is someone you've chosen to assassinate in a mission.

===

- You see a LSF ship. Finish your drink if you see a LSF ship outside a scripted mission.

- Trent encounters a robotic bartender.

- Trent refers to a robotic bartender as "A Man that knows things..."

- Robotic bartender has to ask Trent if he is new to its base.

- every time you get pulled out of a trade lane where pirates are attacking a cargo train full of loot who see your vastly superior ship and decide to attack *you* instead of finishing off the train and scarpering with the goodies.

- twice if the escort of the transport breaks off defending it and comes after you as well.

Post Mon Mar 31, 2003 3:28 pm

Actually, it's pretty fun to trap yourself in a dock and snipe at any poor fool who tries to land...nothing can hit you in there.

-every time your autodock slams you into a trade lane part and makes you lose your shields(yes, this DOES happen).

-twice if you see a liberty rogue outside of liberty. Three times if they keep coming.

-empty the bottle if your top-end ship gets swarmed and destroyed by rogues. If you get killed by starfliers, you'd better get another bottle.

-every time you score a hit on a light fighter with a torp launcher.

-Forty bottles if you collide with a planet using the goto cammand and it miraculously spins out of its atmosphere flinging the entire populace into space and shoots across the system smashing planets as it goes, crashes into the sun, and starts a super nova that wipes the entire system out and you survive only to have a liberty rogue shove a sunslayer up your arse!

Take a drink:

- Every time the SP dialogue is indicating that you should hurry, yet every time you press F3 to dock, you are given the "Access Denied" until the dialogue finishes.

- Every time you try to get a head start on your cash in the SP game, yet you find yourself restricted to Libery space with "Access Denied."

- Any other time you get "Access Denied."

- Every time the trade lane gets disrupted at the end of the line when it doesn't matter anyway (two drinks if they disrupt it at the end of the line and they're not hostile, three if they disrupt it at the end of the line and they're Xenos).

- One drink for every Countermeasure Dropper and Plain Thruster that you tractor in and sell.

- Every time you form on someone that's docking with a jumpgate to skip waiting in the queue (HA-HA! I cut in line!).

- Every time the Outcasts take your sorry a$$ out as you attempt to make your way to a Freeport station to bribe the Outcasts for better reputation just so that you can get your sweaty hands on a Sabre.

- Every time Juni resets your waypoints to come to meet her.

- Every time Juni makes you run all the way back to Manhatten just to find a message indicating that you are to meet her in a different system (two drinks if the rendezvous is the system that you were in when she called you to Manhatten).

- Every time the slave circuit on the Humpback drags you through atmosphere three or four times when trying to dock with a planet docking ring since the thing flies like a bowling ball.
