What''s your home base/planet?

What base/planet do you stay around mostly, accept most of your missions from, or do most of your trading at? What ship are you piloting and what is your net worth?

Currently my home base is Freistadt in one of the Omega systems. I am currently accepting many missions which involve the ruthless slaughtering of Red Hessians. I'm piloting a Hammerhead and my net worth is around 500,000 credits.

i have warmly embraced the life of being a pirate, outlaw.. i hang around on rochester base NY the most of the time, since most players make runs to there with trading.. then i just lie around in my funked up sabre with lvl10 shield and all nomad powered.. and wipe them out..

since im in red with everything except criminals, i cannot dock ANYWHERE in any system.. only criminal bases allow me..

I've been spending most of my time in the Border Worlds (Omega systems) and the closest thing I have to a home there is the Corsair's homeworld. If I go around the sector I make it a point to visit the Blood Dragons and keep my rep up with them. When in the Border Worlds I sometimes stop by the monkey planet just for giggles and the challenge of getting there and back (which isn't much of one anymore).

I'm currently flying a pretty pimped out Titan with a net worth reaching 2 million credits.

My home is Freital Base with the Red Hessians in Omega 11. I diamond mine in the Van Rohe belt, take missions against Bounty Hunters, and do the occasional raid on the evil Daumann empire at Solarius Station.

My home is my ship. : P

But in terms of bases of operations, I hang around the Border Worlds/Edge Worlds... Civilization just isn't my thing. I've managed to be friendly to most of the major criminals, so I can hang around with impunity. Except for the damned Hunters. As soon as I figure out how to meddle with the system properties, I'll set up a base to call my own somewhere

Seems like I'm mostly in Hudson trying to fix a rep by killing xeno's. Operating out of Dawson base. Either that or Lieden.. pirating ships @ Raiden bend.

As my trial version only covers one system, I prefer Manhattan

Seriously, why can't we Europeans have FL yet? Are they translating it? I could guarantee every single FL player in Norway would want the original version...

For some odd reason, I seem to be based out of New London. At least, I always seem to end up there, and I'm always having to trek back towards NY to meet up with friends online. I suppose it's because my trade route typically ends there. As for my ship? Wow, I've been through a lot of ships. I think the easiest answer is just to say, "freighter." At the moment, however, I'm in a shiny new Hammerhead VHF. I might just make it my new fave - at least until I recoup all the money I spent on it.

Depends on the server I'm in.

I usually play on the Freelancer Central server and was last based on the planet in the Cortez system. (can't think of the name)

Lastnight, I was on the East Coast 24/7 (above server had a PW set on it. ) so I had to start over. When I left for the night, I had just docked at Planet Houston.

i usually hang around mactan base, usually doing missions pwning the bounty hunter scum.............. occasionally taking cargo runs round bretonia into the border worlds.... visiting the corsair base in omega 5..... then back to mactan via rheinland i havnt actually set foot in kusari yet

and im loading an X Series Border Worlds Dagger my fav ship atm, it may only be light and holds low level guns, but it packs a punch with my 3 hells fury's.... then a big star beam to eat up the shields , with a slingshot missile to finish them off


thats in multiplayer on my friends server, tbh i havnt really got into single player that much yet........... will get round to it tho

I don't exactly have a home base when playing as Sith on Dark Times.... I just go wherever..now Darkside on the other hand has home base in all criminal territory (Corsairs, outcasts etc), liberty (even liberty is neitral..but hostileatthe same time...oddly enough...i am almost good with them..but they still are hell bent on killing me), and reinland...everywhere else..people want him dead..mostly cause i help people get to differant systems through territory that is hostile torwards them and i have to kill friendlies to keep them from killing the player i am escorting....dirty work really..but someone has to do it.

My home is freeport 9 in omicron theta.
I will defend it by any means.
Its located on the elite server, and if your friendly with those damn corairs I really suggest you stay away from my home.

Well, considering I just started a new game on East Coast 24/7, I'm usually out in the Silverton Asteriod Field in Colorado mining (you guessed it) silver and selling it at Manhattan ($660). It also gives me a chance to kill alot of xenos out there.

Post Wed Mar 12, 2003 7:38 pm

I hang around Malta. Missions are easy and the reward is high. There's also a lot of wreckages nearby.
