The idea of hosting an .iso for Freelancer has been thrown around here and there, though da' law is scary and we'd rather not make the risk just in case some people come after us for it.

One of the members here mentioned he knew a place where it was being hosted already, and has offered to ask if we can use his website as a download location. I'm hoping that we get somewhere with that.

Being able to provide people with the normal Freelancer game along with the mod would be an excellent way to boost up numbers.

Goddangit Tunicle, why didn't you bring this up sooner! (Though I guess you were never asked)

I'm just gonna.. make a link of that in the 'Download Mod' thread..

i wouldn t make at a link in the download section, imagine if some busy body found out that this forum was advertising illegal downloads....it would only take a few seconds of the idiots DDosing us that they will try to cause more hassles and then possiblly...goodbye forum

But if you want the discovery GC to grow there's a chance but its small cuz most players nowdays play hardcore PVP games / esports .

You probably know no real hardcore PvP games, aight?
While actually Freelancer could be a very nice discipline in case it had modern engine and code. Since like 2006 there were various fan-started projects to rebuild the game (most of them being Unity-based), all of them currently being dead. I only know 1 such alive project, being sloooooooowly developed at the moment.
