Well as much as I am anticipating CF 1.6 I bid fond adieu to 1.57. For it was in Crossfire 1.57 that I finally got with the program and figured out what multiplayer is all about. Clans, chat, pvp, all that cool stuff you can't do by yourself-unless you're schizophrenic. Being a graphic designer by training and trade, I kept a runing photo album of sorts as I made my journey into the realm of multiplayer and through the wonderful world of Crossfire. So it is with your induldgence that I open my …

And these two screenshots represent something all of us have done. Trading in Custodian to level up to a bada$$ fighter.

One of the cool things about Crossfire is the new bases. Some of these bases have rather....odd docking properties. Docking at Outpost Delta can take as little as 10 seconds or as long as 3 minutes depending on which butt cheek you're leaning on. (Balance is the key!) On one particlularly long docking sequence, I decided to sit back, have a beer and watch the show. Took some pictures too. Here are a few.. You might want to put some sunglasses on for this one....

Of course, no mod is a success without the vigilence of dedicated people to guard it from cheaters, thugs, ruffians, and Methodists. Gunny put in countless hours standing guard so we could have fun blowing each other up. Herea are a couple of shots showing our resident Headmaster on duty.

And, as with Freelancer, part of the joy of playing Crossfire is flying around in this great big beautiful cosmos. Op's work on the new planets is certainly up to the standards of the original game. Unfortunately I didn't get a screenshot of the cool wormhole in ...uh....Vega(?). Anyway I didn't get it. But I did snap a few pics of Planet Prophecy which has warm fuzzies for me because it's named after the last Wing Commander game (a moment of silence please....), Sigma 17 just because it's so d…

But of course, Crossfire is about...um...Cross fire. Combat that is. Mixing it up. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pics of pvp (I was too busy ducking and exploding), but I did get some wonderful pics of npc's going up in flames. Great entertainment, that. Judging from these, one might think I was a pirate or a pilot of ill repute. Nothing could be further from the truth. I always play on the side of the good guys. But sometimes you gotta have access to Outlaw turf to get stuff. Like Advanced C…

...And finally these pics of my last hurrah. I decided to go out with a bang and just started shooting at Liberty Cruisers outside Manhattan. I'm sure there was a really, really good reason for it. But yesterday was a long time ago, so what it was has somehow slipped my mind. But I'm very certain that they started it. yessir. Down goes the LNS Wabash Scratch the LNS Susquehana I was just cleaning my torpedo tubes and next thing I know, there's this godawful noise and people are shooting at me. …

Great post Marshall! Loved every screen. And yes Crusaders are fun. They make a loud explosion and a cool blue flash. But not as much fun as a Liberty Cruiser. Those battleships look like fun targets too.
