Freelancer 2

This looks amazing! Will it have its very own storyline continuing Trent's life or something?

It should be called uberLancer

Troll names as UberLancer, TrollLancer, PawnLancer and such are not acceptable

Well maybe we can figure out a new one So far we have Starlancer ---> Freelancer ---> ____lancer.

Dreamlancer?

I think the title is the last thing that will come, first it needs to be developed (far away from finish, i guess?) and the story must be written - then, just then it can be titled, otherwise it gets a stupid title which does not fit to the game at all just saying...

Lancer's Dream sounds great, will this mod actually accomplish all lancer's (the games) dream, which is only one ? *shiny-aqua eyes*

Try to find me in the dark, mwahahaahahahah

I think if this works out, we could beat mass defect ;o

Anyway, my old dream on FL was and still is the NPC recruiting\hiring and commanding. Essentially, the creation of the complete faction (with also stations building, may be researching, establishing automatic trade routes between the other factions, patrols etc.)
And of course the main military fleets and shipyards (Ah, dreams, dreams ...)

This could greatly changes the game in the direction of the strategy, I know... But imagine the scale and spectacle of the battles The battleships will not just "super cannons with super armor" , but the main source of any large military clash (especially if the docks will enabled) as a full combat and support unit. Add the good old torpedo bombers and the question about the balance will be finally solved...

...

I think, I'm lost in dreams... :-\

Something like what's in X2 universe, with the help of some mod ?

It would be interesting if NPC factions are allied with some and in war with others and actually conquer systems and change the station's faction/system ownership lol, especially when humans can help them win the war with resources or by taking missions from that faction.

Since we talk about this stuff..

Personally, I would like to see the proposed ideas about NPC control. As in you can buy as certaion station, or create your own production facility, then slowly as it evolves you can expand your little "empire" with other groups or players, and create from fighters to more large warships. And not only military ships, you could also create only highly sophisticated mining and trading ships and sell them to other groups that are not capable of such. Ideas...

may be... I didn't play X2... I can just give you Sins of Solar Empire as an example (very good auto NPC control systems)

Yes. It could add the dynamic ifluence system of any faction.

@SYNKron:
Agreed

Gathering resourses -> buildng\hiring something -> managing.
This is exactly the strategy element.

But then we would need havy balance of the faction forses(in order to realistic difficulty of conquering any of the systems and making the ifluence borders not so dinamic (New York under Rheinland control? New Tokio captured by the Outcasts?... )

In Sins of a Solar Empire game(s) you control the entire faction... and conquer the entire universe lol.

hmm, maybe I should try that game again, as I got it with all updates and expansion pack.

Well.. The clan is the "entire faction" too
But conquering the entire universe... that's why I told about balancing of difficulty...
