I actually had a dream..

I actually had a dream..

Hello there, I used to be a big freelancer fan when I first bought the game. It was tottaly exciting at first and then it got boring after flying the titan, eagle, and the sabre. And the multiplayer I lost interest because there was no Clan system(where players can form up as a group name instead of Numbers). But the single player was a lot of fun while it lasted.

I wish the Lancer series would of continue even longer.

Especially when I had a dream of Freelancer online where you controlled your ship using a joystick instead of a mouse in first person. No auto-aiming, ship flight is like starlancer using newton phsyics, you could pitch, yaw, and roll, and there was some latheral thrusters too. It was all pure player skills and there was some tachyon the frindge clans and JG players that migrated over there as well.

Now as for the first time I heard of freelancer, I thought this game would beat Tachyon the Frindge when I looked at the screenshots. But then again I was very disappointed when they took out the joystick controls + elite style radar in the later stages.

Anyways, has there been at least one client patch for freelancer(I tottaly forgot)?? I wish they added the ability for players to roll in the game.

@ Broken....

Careful not to go overboard on that J-Stick angle. It is very very very old, refer to stickies above your thread.

As for rolling and whatnot, conduct a search on the downloads. Look for one called roll baby roll.... what, in the way of a client side "patch" are you looking for?

Try buying starlancer online. It costs about $1.75, and has joysticks, pitch, yaw, and all that good stuff. Now to mention a fun storyline, cool ships, and nice CG cutscenes. --- VH16

Look at Bargib's sticky. Then download the Joy to Key program he has listed. This allows you to play freelancer with a joystick in a limited functionality, though it is very difficult, since the program doesn't transfer sensitivities over, but in combination with the roll baby roll mod it IS possible, but very difficult to configure.

There are a whole lot of new options in freelancer now. Vast amounts of new stuff. I cannot say on this forum because of the spoiler content. Enjoy some of the mods and have fun........

Broken Record: I think your dream has a subconscious meaning:
You are dreaming about sequels to the vastly-modded, enjoyable, space simulation we know as....Freelancer. Your dream means this: you're playing Freelancer too much, mate

In a universe bound by no rules or anything, you waste your 8 hours of sleep dreaming about a computer game? Dude, I had a dream about taking luge lessons the other night, through iced over city streets, with cars in them. Can't do that every day. --- VH16
