Hello everyone. I'm Matias, 20 years old and from Argentina. I've returned to Freelancer after a couple of years playing another games, as WoW, Mass Effect or Mount & Blade. My english knowledge is basic but i can undersant the conversations and chat like Tarzan. I love this game since i discovered years ago. I upgraded my internet connection, switching from an ISP to another and now i can play just with 200ms and no packet loss. Works for me.
I didn't choose a role, but actually i'm trying to trade or sell minery items. It's faster than do the quests of the stations and planets.
Make sure to check out people with a [Helper] tag (as I happen to be one) out ingame if you got any problems or questions that need to be answered.
And don't worry, beginning with roleplay is something that will happen sooner or later. Just look around and find out what things you'd like to try out and do this.
