ideas for a sequel anyone??

Wed Apr 09, 2003 11:34 am by Nicodimus

I'm starting this thread to gather ideas for a sequel. Please don't be too harsh on 'em even though you think some stink.

# Player can join one faction or another. There will be bonuses for joining and penalties for leaving.

# Speed is affected by the ship mass. A LF should fly a lot faster than a VHF or a freighter.

# More than a single docking ring per planet. It’s really annoying to wait in queue for 10 MP dudes to land, not to mention if you have some hot cargo and the police are sniffing around.

# More killing power for the missiles and torpedoes (can't say more without being a spoiler)

# Less efficiency for the countermeasures.

# There must be a dedicated cruise disrupter countermeasure. The darn things are so irritating.

# This is the last one and is BIG: how about factions can realy disapear (long time..no siege

), and new ones can appear, with new allegiances and alliances.

that's all folks
Bye bye now

the Empire shows up with a Super Star Destroyer, lay waste to all the pesky little houses and their pitiful fleets, and rules the survivors with an iron fist!

Dude, where's my Super Star Destroyer?

We return home to the Sun system and beat the hell out of the Coalition.
Yes I know that in the FLintro, that we can download here, the Sun system gets destroyed. But not in the FLintro to the full game so there most be something more right?

Or what about an HW (HomeWorld) mod, their ships are just so cool.
Well I'm looking forward to HW2 release, hope its soon.

Persoanlly I think the whole Return of the Coalition idea is a bad move. It would basically be SL 2! Theres got to be a better idea (at this time I cant think of one I'll post later if I have a moment of inspiration!)

how about instead going back to the solar system to beat the coalition, the coalition "sleeper ships" should came to claim some space on sirus??

talking about a sequal already? jesus...think they should concentrate on making an expansion pack...i paid $50 for this sh*t and it only comes with a very short SP campain :/

Maybe they can release an update or expansion for the missions that we all saw in the intro mive..
That would be great...I think..part of history when the sleeper ships launch and stuff like that...fall of the alliance..

Again, any major invasion involving the Coalition is a bad idea IMO, unless it was a hidden system like the one where the Chimps live.

Thu Apr 10, 2003 3:06 pm by Nicodimus

It is said in the intro that the solar system is blown away by the ravaging war, so in order for the Coalition to show up it must have survived on another system as the Alliance did, with or without monkeys/robots/Dom Kevash/whatever. And if Sayian is so against Coalition showing up how about the Dom Kevash themselves came to calim their systems back?? Does it please you??

Sounds better than the alternative. Not being funny or anything but it would just be a blatent sequal.

Geez, I'm sorry I yelled. I could've told you more politely.

I've seen this a lot and have an observation to make: speed is affected by not just the ship mass, but also the power of the engine.

So surely, there is no real reason why a LF should be faster than a VHF. The bigger the ship, the bigger the engine...? Any rocket scientists out there care to comment?

My theory, which I just made up on the spot, is that in Freelancer, Intergalactic law requires that all vessels be constructed with the same mass/thrust ratio no matter their size
