Thanks. As a reward for you all, here’s a Freelancer motivational poster or three that you may have already seen.

So, why is Discovery so popular? Is it just the size of it or… ?

In the vanilla game, what do you think is the most awesome looking ship in it?

For me, the Defender. The Anubis places in a close second though.

Speaking of the Defender, has anyone noticed that Junko’s Defender has an extra smaller wing at the top of her ship?

Kewl. Thanks for the responses. But…

Hm, right now there are only 217 users playing FL online though? Spread out over 85 servers?! Even with the small vanilla FL universe, they’ll probably be spread even more.

Someone please tell me the users online fluctuate wildly from day to day or Starport is way off.

Not sure if FLHook counts - have you heard of that?

The only mod I’ve heard of so far is the discovery mod.

Cool. Anything else of similar note that they added?

Yeah, I’m Arnox. Been playing for a while. Got ticked off with no sequel… blah, blah, blah. But I didn’t come here to talk about that nonsense (not right now anyway).

My question is how far have some of these mods gotten? What is the extent of the things they are able to change now.

For example,

SPOILER

Later on in the FL story, you saw that some of the defenders going against you were outfitted with invisibility cloaks. You never were able to get your hands on one of them though.

END SPOILER (You guys do not have spoiler tags it seems.)

Have mods been able to add in items like that? Do they add anything to the gameplay of the game besides stronger weapons, stronger ships, stronger shields, etc.?

Thanks for the responses in advance.
