  • Long time no see everyone; I heard about 1.9, got very excited, soiled some clothing, and then installed it. I don't play multiplayer in this game; I am just not into it at all. So, I am always stuck playing the single player campaign over and over again with different mods to spice it up. I've played so many mods where the game is made to be ridiculously easy (your buddies wipe out the competition before you can fire a shot), way too hard (it takes 10 minutes to destroy a single rogue fighter on the first mission because they are constantly recharging shield/nano; not fun), unrealistic leaps of money required to level up...need I go on?


    OP said he balanced the SP by hand and I believe it. So far the game feels just right in how it ramps up the difficulty, provides you with resources and moneymaking opportunities. The graphics look incredible; this is a whole new game. Seriously, the graphics are awesome. I'm not very far yet, but I look forward to the new missions you guys have created; the sheer number of missions that you added has me extremely excited.


    Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to this flawed game that had so much potential. I am greatly impressed, and will float a donation your way once I finish the SP. CF 1.9 IS Freelancer now, as far as I am concerned. There is no equal.


    Keep up the fantastic work!

  • Thank you mate for the backup,
    Indeed I know no mod that gives a total of 33 real storyline missions, with Juni, King, Orillion(as continuation at his "beying the eyes and ears of the Order in Liberty") and escort wings(btw maybe you tested Juni sexy outfits as well, I like the 2nd one), it might have few issues and at certain parts get stuck, but for that everyone have the support they need on the forum. All known issues in the extended story are already solved(more of, explained hwo to pass the levels).


    There are still issues with "voice" as noone can reproduce Juni, King and friend's voices exactly, but there were tries as in the Lost Paradise planetary mission.


    This is the first version of this mod which brings an extended storyline, but the next ones will be even better, as always. Even if it'd take it's time(which is less than expected for few men) as OP_R8R is doing most of the part in the hand work, and he also has help from his Dev team, especially the coders Huor and Haegar(MIA).

  • I already ran into a few places where I got stuck in CF1.9 because the cruise speed is 450. I've dealt with this in other mods and it is easy to deal with once you know how to avoid it. And, there is no way to fix it, so there is no complaints from me. As for the voice actors, I personally wouldn't care if the characters suddenly had German accents for the extended missions. I am not sure how you guys handled it, but nobody is expecting you to replicate professional voice actors with American accents.

  • We have american players, females as well, there might be some chance for increasing the "Dev" team with "Voice actors" soon, I was just thinking of this some weeks ago, and even got some names. But this is just on my thoughs, and while it's not confirmed by OP it's nothing.


    Well, give us a shout when you compleete the Singleplayer campaign ^^ after it, there's a lot more to explore, experience and enjoy in this mod, the campaign is just like a "bit" of each important thing in CF. You don't get to see the new mounted-in equipment from the new Battleships which differes for each faction and etc etc...

  • +10 on the effort of the CF team...I don't really care either if the voices sounded the same (although its worth a try to attempt)...Just a thought, if you find someone close to the originals?voicewise would it be worth overlaying the original voices so that the sound stayed consistant all the way through the added missions?


    IMO what CF has accomplished is as close to what I ever hoped to see as a Freelancer 2.0 as far as the extended missions goes....complete congratulations from me :D
