If I play the storyline in single player, will I still have access to the new worlds and ships created by the mod at some point? Or is it exactly like vanilla SP? Thanks

Single Player Crossfire is nearly identical to Multi-Player Crossfire.
So, yes, you will have access to all of the goodies. Some of the fun begins right in New York! (although you may have to look around to find it)

not 100% correct
you dont have access to everyting in singleplayer -
So at some point I will be able to travel to the new systems and still come back for the storyline?
I have only played for a little bit, but I have to say that this is an amazing piece of work! Congratulations to SWAT OP-R8R!!WOW! I am impressed!!
(ok now, that's enough exclamation points) -
Well, winkle didn't told about 100 % of the features neither
But still, a big part of it... if you don't like to talk with other humans in teh same game

You can do that at any time. As soon as you finish Mission 1 and King tells you to pick up some work on Pittsburgh -- from that point on, you can go anywhere that you like.
Just ignore Juni and King when they tell you to "hurry" for a mission. They will wait for you forever.
Go explore.
As I said, there are new places to explore, even in New York!
(PS: The best things are not along the tradelanes. And use your eyes... in Crossfire, your eyes sometimes have longer range than your sensors.)
(PPS: While OPR8R is, obviously, correct that a few features are multi-player only, the vast majority of stuff -- new systems, aliens, and things to do -- are the same for both SP and MP.)
So what am I missing out on by playing single player storyline instead of open single player?
Nothing.
The Storyline *adds* cut scenes and missions. Open SP simply removes those.

Thanks for the clarification. That's a great way to do it - I can go explore the new stuff, or follow the plot. Best of both worlds!
Mostly, yes.
One more difference that I forgot to mention is that OSP starts with the New York and Liberty jump gates open.
The storyline begins with the gates closed, and you have to play through a few missions before they will all be open.
Nevertheless, you can explore new parts of Crossfire before you even leave New York.
