Hi.
I read in another Thread that positive Feedback makes you guys stay motivated, because there may still be some stuff to fix. So I want to tell you the following:
I have the enormous luck to be totally new to Freelancer. Never played through the game once. I played a year ago the original and 1.9 a bit, but I didn't want to keep on playing, because 2.0 was in development. Only got the game mechanics to know and played a bit in Liberty space. ... and the 1.9 "no pause" even in SP was a gamebreaker for me.
And now I play this awesome game with this awesome mod for the first time - and man, it is fantastic. The universe is so gorgeous, every tradelane flight I love to watch it. Yes, game is difficult for me. Damn, I had to restart some missions in the beginning several times. But I love it. Even repeated trading is fun, because you included all the cool new and expensive ships you desperately want to fly. After the hard times in Liberty, where I got myself a Swashbuckler for effective trading, story missions were very hard. In Britanian space now I finally could spend my money in this Trident ship of yours. Oh, and the bachground stories... I dont know what is original and what you added... but I visit every dockable thing in space and go to the bar to read news. "Rheinland blockade in Omega 7. Is war comming?" - Hell, I don't know, never played this before! I feel myself so lucky to experiance this great game the first time the best way possible. I wonder where the next mission will lead me.
My deepest thanks for bringing Freelancer to near perfection. I don't know how all the other FL-Fans experiance this, but I can assure you that for a guy first time playing this modded game it is incredible.
