What kind of Freelancer player are you?

A little late to the party, but I’ll comment anyway…
Pie-rat fighter pilot. I only play as a lawful pilot when the lawful group is aggressive and borders on nearly being pirates themselves. I’m a law abiding citizen IRL and tend to not want to be that when I play this game. Alongside that, I tend to be a fringe pirate simply because I enjoy the exploration aspect … and that generally is all done on the fringe.

I’m a Explorer and trader by nature – I love to fly around and check out the various system’s and all the space eye candy – I do enjoy the combat and interacting with the various factions – I’m also a big ship fan a like to test out all the different ships and see how they perform
I Just love Ring Surfing – zipping about on thrusters or in cruise mode trying to get close to the ring and sailing along it

Hmmm… I like moving freight. I like seeing the sights too. That’s what attracts me to the FL universe. Finding all the loot just floating around waiting to be collected keeps me coming back for more. Never tried flying any of the capitol ships. Sounds like fun tho. Putting down a few rebels or pirates is always good for a quick start, but after I feel comfortable enough that I can move goods and hold my own, that’s what you’ll find me doing.

I’m a fighter and trader at heart, I also love to explore. You can find me being a Pirate or a Lawful, I don’t really care which. I also love to race/surf on rings, very fun :-P. You will mainly find me trading, and on Procyon, trying to PvP :-x! I also am a friendly guy, even though mostly I’m playing as a Pirate, but hey, every man has his manners hidden somewhere?

I just doo whaever I’m in the mood for, if I have the ship for it.
For instance; If I’m flying a freighter I will deffinatly trade.
If I have a decent fighter I’m gonna take missions and explore.
Some times I pirate. In liberty you can make alot of money pirating liberty rouges. One mule will usually fill your cargo bay with goodies. If you hang around rochester you will often find them hauling diamonds. You will need a cruis disrupter, because after you take a few of them out they start avoiding you. A negative side affect of this activity is that the Zoners will dislike you after a while. But you can fix that if you don’t let it go too far. One server I played on let me start my game as a corsair. That was very exciting! It was challenging in the beginning because the hackers didn’t like me, and I had to take misions to leave the base in cortes. The misions were hard because the bounty hunters were well equiped and I was not. I also like exploring. I think most players like exploring. Curiosity is hardwired into our minds. There’s no denying the compulsion. I keep hoping one day I’ll find a jumhole I’ve never seen before and go someplace new. That would be an exciting mod to add to the game. Of course those mods are out ther already. I just haven’t used them. -
heh. m8, there are even mods with entirely new universes. if you want to have a partially known, try discovery, for instance. the amount of new places is that huge, that you probably never will explore even a half of them before you have the kick-ass ship youre after.
