Thanks.

Btw, you might also want to have a look at this thread about the first point

Oh I see. Thanks a lot.

Here's a better link and more up to date than the others. Privateer: The Reckoning MOD is ALIVE!. The mod actually sounds really cool, I personally can't wait to try it when its finished. If someone said is was bad it was probably because he tried a pre-finished version.

Sir S

I AM SHOCKED FINNELY AN EXPANSION PACK FOR FREELANCER WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

REAL COOL

Well prepare to be shocked again...there is NO expansion (well no announced expansions). Check the date, the whole "Freelancer: The Reckoning" was an APRIL FOOLS joke, nothing else.

Yes, but the mod "Freelancer the Reckoning" is nearly complete! Check out the link I provided. It's not an expansion, but a Privateer/Wing Commander Conversion mod.

Sir S

I know it was an april fools joke but my friend actually says he has it. That's why Igot confused. And he dosn't joke about these things.

Your friend needs to be taken for a visit to the mental institution

The Privateer: The Reckoning mod has just been uploaded to Lancer's Reactor.
This is a preview, not a finished mod.
(We don't have all of the ships done, yet.)
(And there's tons of stuff to do, still.)
But it should give you a feeling of the Wing Commander universe, and what we're trying to accomplish.

I say Reconing creators. Just found (after reinstalling FL and checking out the lancer site) your mod and it sounds great , but before I install I would like to know if this makes everyone (or thing) eaqual across the FL universe?
The game is sorta OK through the non flexable senario play but after it becomes EXTREAMLY borrrrrring. The ship is so strong, the guns so powerful that the only competion is from the corsairs and that only marginal. The commodities are priced so that you have to travel long distances and that becomes tediously borring.
Does yor mod change that or just make a bad ship badder? BORRrING!
I'll wait for your reply before installing or else just uninstall and wait anouther 6-8 months to play again.
