  • Orillion isn't in New Berlin.

    Freelancer singleplayer never was open
    if you didnt do exactly what the mission said during the original missions you got the mission failure screen

    That's just not true. In vanilla Freelancer, whenever I was told to meet x-person at y-place, I had every option of how I got there. If I went off the indicated route, the game automatically calculated a new route from my current position.

    I had the exact same problem as the OP. It is a bit strange that the very first Crossfire mission breaks away from the 'open' game that is Freelancer. As it is, I wasted more than 2 hours because I didn't follow the EXACT path to New Berlin. Instead, I took my own route in order to maximize the profit from the cargo I had in my hold, exactly the same way I had played the whole normal game. Some kind of warning would have been nice.


    So, I went back to the 'Mission' save from the beginning of the new chapter and took the 'official' route to New Berlin where I, of course, found Orillion. Surprise, Surprise!! Both Trent and Orillion now have HEAVY German accents and I could not understand ANYTHING they said. I'm glad that the whole conversation was to be found in the mission log, so I know what they said to each other. Perhaps you (the developers of Crossfire) could have reached out to the many fans to find people willing to do the voices that would be closer to the originals, or at least, in an American accent. (As soon as that game conversation was over, I must admit I tried speaking in Trent's voice and, while not perfect, I think I could do a passable job of it!)


    Despite these minor annoyances, I must give thanks and kudos for what you guys have accomplished with Crossfire! I know it must have been quite a large undertaking and it is evident that you put a LOT of time and effort into this mod and for that I am very grateful!!


    I am very much looking forward to Crossfire 2.0!! I hope it doesn't take too much longer, but I am willing to wait as long as necessary, because I know it will be worth the wait!! Great job!!!!
