This is about FL2 IDEAS, not advertisements for other games! Sheesh!

Sorry i didnt know that as many talks about EVE and other games in this thread. However FL2 is not going to be out as i hope there will be official expansion for it. As i imaging i hope there will be a nomad war sorts.

I don't think there really could be a FL 2, since the story already ends in FL 1. All that can really be done is to make mods or official upgrades.

The story doesn't end. Why, i can think of 3 very good extensions of the storyline. Orillion does leave you with the words "I'll be in touch". That is the perfect bases for a sequal. the REASON there isn't a sequal is that Microsoft does not see it in their financial interests to fund the making of a sequal. Not enough people would buy it. Besides, they've gone on with the ideas of freelancer in EVE, which, in my opinion, is based on FL.

Pretty true, EVE simply gets the ideas from FL and i read they going for expansion. I just wonder why wouldn't anyone stand out and continue FL series. Nomad havent ended yet, and sure there will be something else show up after few centuries. I think FL won't hold for another 2-3 years, less and less people playing it and people forgetting this thing already. And that's pretty sad.

Good night;

I agree with all yours ideas, in fact I also thought, in them; and everyone who played Freelancer for a while though in them too. The game is very good, no doubt, but I think it could be improved with all these ideas. I want my own faction; a garage in a planet, an own station or ship carrier to store ships – weapons and commodities, hire pilots, automatic turrets, personalize the own ships, etc (please see my post about a new MOD).

http://www.lancersreactor.com/t/forum/t ... er&M=False

Reading your post, I have new ideas:

1. Realistic Solar Systems, I mean, planets are not stationary in space they are orbiting stars. Please move the planets. Also if the planets are in motion, the tradelines doesn’t work because the planet not always be in the same place (but the computer can locate it in the system).
PLEASE ANYONE DESIGN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM…IT WOULD BE NICE TO VISIT ITS PLANETS IN MY ANUBIS.
Please don’t forget the size & texture of the planets.
2. New alien races: Kilrathi, Covenant, and more.
3. I like this. Fuel consumption, taxes and fees.
4. Another good idea from you: dynamic universe, alliance between factions, wars, etc.
5. Customization of the ships.
6. AWAC ships.
7. Refueling ships.
8. Ship carriers, not only the Battleships or cruisers, ships like the Vesuvius or the Midway (from Wing Commander).
9. A lot of new ships.

But I propose that including all these not in a new game, but in a MOD (please see my post and comment). I know that will be a huge job, but if all fans who know about programming we can gather a big group of experts to make it possible.

Thanks.

Almost all of those have already been thought up, and most are impossible to do. As for the solar system, try the Crossfire mod. Or, for a more realistic one, try the pre-alpha of FL:CE (Be warned, it is highly unstable and has numerous errors). There is Earth, Mars, Europa, and the Moon. Jupiter is visible but not dockable. The 2 moons of Mars are, for some odd reason, 2 little tiny asteroids o.O

One really cool aspect is that, from earth, the sun is 7 billion meters away. W00T!

Hmmmm...
maybe another way to get MS to do something more would be to have a variety of expansion packs that would allow a player to get involved with the factions in different parts of Sirius, like helping the blood dragons topple the current gov't in Kusari,or taking an active role in helping the Rheinlanders fix their malfed up system - you could pattern it along the lines they(MS) used to do the mech packs for Mechwarrior- but that way you could have the ongoing story as you liked it

heelo there people, i havent bin on ina while but from the points ive seen there are more and more idea circlating on here but is ne one actualy gonna take these and forward them onto a modder so they could become a reality, the idea to interact with the story line, help the blood dragons and heres one i thought of when readin the posts, maybe u could aid a faction in control of systems as in u take a mission from a faction to repel an fleet of enemy ships from gaining a foot hold in a system with a squad of pilots from the faction. maybe even u could work with a faction to invade a system, u could work with the lane hackers to take control of the manhatten (cant spell to late at night) system. u could also capture space stations and planets. that would be awsome, yet in needs more ships and carriers and the ability to hire wingmen and give them orders and co-ordinate attacks with them.

The ability to continue the original Freelancer's campaign, to own multiple ships, and to own houses.

(Juni to Earthling) what is this "tire" you speak of

There should be ways to work out the "official" expansion. Since the publisher has ended, but is possible to recall the top modders and team up for an "official" expansion. We can make out the new voices, missions, textures, almost everythings is possible! I shouldn't wait for FL2 sort, as publisher is no more. Is time the fans should do something to bring the forgotten legend to live! Don you agree? :/
