Everyone's always talking about the speeds. About how some ships should be faster and stuff like that.
Well If 1 ship gets fatser, EVERYONE is going to use that ship and all the others become obsolete.
In Starlancer multi... in the end, EVERYONE used shroud. They fly at top speed trying to find a rocket/specs then they charge... No real fighting ever.
Different speeds for different ships would mean the end of FL. (and don't you say I'm wrong >.< cos I'm never wrong >_>


Btw I miss this:
-Joining factions (we have a bug..)
-Leading a formation/wing/squad (I sometimes hear guys talking "I'm in command now" after i shot down their leader"
-more fat people
-Ability to change font size (well O.o?)
-torps that do massive damage to objects like stations but not that much damage to fighters. Make them act like torps we have now with a protection system so they don't blow up to soon or they blow up after a set time with massive splash damage
-Like the other guy said: broken/malfunctioning equipment. Imagine a guy damaging your torp launcher. Now its jammed and makes you blow up instead O.o Or a malfunctioning turret that only fires in one direction
-A cloaking system that drains shield energy (the batteries)
-Fuel, we all flying solar powered ecoships? Whats all the hfuel for ?
-Projectile weapons. This laserstuff is ok but guns that don't require energy could be deadly... and expensive
-Better missiles. 800 years ago they had rockets that take out electrical sstems
Or that picked the closest target and tried to destroy it (I loved solomons). Or one of those multimissilelaunching pods?
Of course missiles shouldn't kill in 1 hit otherwise noone plays fl...
-bigger planets (double size is enough)
-A bunk thing where you can check the news, check your ITAC or neural net whatever and play some tunes... I think this would take up even less space than all those rooms
-Better communication with npc and gta-style missions. Imagine going into formation with a bunch of transports and then some guy asks you if you can kill the other guy or something like that
-Flares or headlights or something because those cloudy areas are dark!
-A better place to complain about stuff we miss

A top level player killing all the police bh and so out in a system , at certain point in non pvp areas should have major battleships moving in to get him and stuff. In certain pvps i wouldnt mind since being king of the universe is also one of the freelancers objectives. In fact at a point police should retreat and call for "heavy" support. IT should be possible for several top level players to "conquer" a system.

it feels incomplete to me more ships different mission types more systems make primus and gammu more exciting( missions commodities stuff like that).

blow up ask questions later

I miss not being able to land on a planet, then walk around in either 3rd or 1st person view, and kill whomever you want, then get back intoyou ship and take off with people on the planet chasing after you.
