The Wealthiest Freelancer Part 2

How lousy of a gamer would you have to be to need to buy your credits from someone for actual money?! I've heard about this before, and it seems more than a little silly to me. Sure games are fun when you finally get all the best stuff, but is it really fun if you didn't have to go through all the missions and work to get that stuff? Can you appreciate how much better it is? I don't think so.

yeah most of those, uhm lets call them customers, do really suck, though some of them are even not bad, but just do not want to waste their time.

For example I know a diabl2 play who payed about 1000$ dollar for some items he wanted, he was not a bad played, did even regular pvp, found most of his stuff himself, but he simply had no problem to use his money to get something he wanted without wasting over 100 hours for item hunting.
for him the game was like a cinama ticket, and buying some items like the popcorn and a cola to it

though those dudes are rare, most simply have to much money and not enough brain.

ah btw aswell sometimes the parents are buying for their kids as a present.

Well, including my stock on the ship, I am worth about 6 billion, topo bad I can't have more than $999,999,999 credits. Anyone know of a way to increase this limit, I could have made over $2 billion on my last cargo run. Oh, I am usiong a modified Voyager with 1 billion unit cargo hold to do this. I have all of the class 10 and 9 weapons in my weapons hold. Any suggestions, I would like to continue amassing money....

Hmm.. I see no difference in using an uber-ship with a cargo hold that can hold 1000000000 goodies and just hacking the credits to you...

Get that 999999999 with a Dromedary and then come talking...

The highest money I've ever had is, uh, 2 and a half millions.

And of course I have those 7 and half millions I got from this one cheater.. But that's dirty money.

I didn't cheat the money, I earned it. i just made it hold that much cargo. That is the only way I could keeep the money I earned from trading. I also learned how to add jump gates, does anyone know how to change the names of the jump gates? I added one from Dresden to New York.

Why not buy yourself a base and start your OWN faction? Think of a cool name -- not like the Oustcast or Corsairs, which sound like biker gangs, or the Golden Chrysanthemums -- who sound like a Girl Scout troop. Let's see, what would be a good faction name ...

Caelistis you're on to something. A huge patch where you can amass a vast financial empire. You could hire humans to do some vicious things. New factions made that could overthrow entire Liberty, Rhienland, Kusari, and Bretonia. Ally with and get riegnforcments from various factions. One thing that would be have to be added would be a limit to the number of credits there are in all of the sector (aka the server). Say somewhere in the nieghboorhood of 50 billion. That way if money is horded it hurts the economy and is much more realistic. And not all humans would monopolize a commodity or service.

A great faction name. the Vigils. (Vigilantes)

Well, as far as I've seen, there aren't any bases that can be bought. I know that it is a joke, I think it is funny that I enjoy playing the game long past the end of the missions. Maybe MS will later have add-on bonus missions, or maybe a user of this site will write one, I would love to go back to Earth and kick some rear! But, if anyone knows the hex address of the money limit in FreeLancer.exe, let me know....

Oh, as to the Dromedary, the Voyager cost me 550,000 credits to purchase, I had a Titan for quite a while before that. I made most of my money fighting the Hessians, Mollys and Bounty Hunters.

I made about 2 million on my own and then I played with my gave, so now I have around 9 million and am full green with everyone. Why? Just for the fun of it.
