Evolutions v1.27 is nicely improved - plot missions are about the same, sometimes a bit harder, sometimes easier (one of the new mods is increased firepower on most ships, including friendlies..as an example i died last night from friendly fire, a transport i was escorting caught me with a couple of shots and toasted me, but when i replayed the mission it all went perfectly
) but the biggest difference is the random fights - improved AI, they ALL have nanobots and shield batteries...makes for more involved dogfights...it just has some really nice touches, all enemy ships seem to have better weaponry, and know how to use 'em...you start with a better ship than in the normal game but that isn't a bad thing, and the selection of new ships available in Liberty is a very nice touch - as is the upgrades you WILL need to carry out ( i won't say anymore, you'll love it).
hope it won't take you to long to download, start with Freelancer Mod Manager from the TLR download centre...the one I use is FLMM 1.2 beta 9, you're not supposed to use it with v1.7 but i had crash issues with the FLMM 1.2 finished version (probably just me
). anyway, either should work fine with 1.27.
My favourite touch is the luxury liner, available from one of CHIPS's new systems...
Thanx again, CHIPS!
