New modder seeks glorious SP experience!
-
Morning everyone!
While I’ve had Freelancer for the best part of 12 years I’m only just relooking into it.
I found the single player campaign a bit daft towards the end and didn’t like the fact that a lot of the emphasis (at least it felt this way) was on building up a tricked-out interceptor.
I’m looking for a Single Player mod that is still able to offer me interesting missions. They don’t necessarily need to be a storyline or a campaign but that would of course be a bonus. I’m not interested in replaying the original Freelancer storyline.
I also would like something that at the very least offers some new commodities to trade and decent ships to trade them in. Something that even allows much larger ships or even the building of your own station would be awesome.
I’ve played around with Discovery, but found it very aimless and got bored trying to grind money from missions that were just too hard and too samey.
I spent about 3 hours trying to install Crossfire. I got there in the end but it seems to want to re-feed me the Freelancer campaign.
I’ve also got Evolutions, Genesis and Shadow of Fear on the list, but with limited time, which do you feel would best suit me?
-
Evolutions is a great mod, written a long time ago though so won’t benefit from some of the more modern addons like widescreen support etc. That said a well put together mod.
Genesis does offer widescreen, zoomable turret views, many new ships and commodities, systems and graphics in HD, prices fluctuate in game which is unusual. Hard but not overly so.
Shadow of Fear i have no idea about, borrowed elements form Crossfire is about all i know.

If you want a new SP storyline, none of those mods have one. There were some mods in progress with new missions but I have no idea if any actually released something somewhat finished.
