CS, GTA III, later Vice City and such. I would always sit at the same PC, where I had my progress saved, obviously. Hello I have to say your videos are very helpful, the mining one especially I crank out cash hand over fist. I have a Hegemon mining ship and a BMM ID and I mine Dubblin like no tomorrow. Honestly I think I'm the one who started the uproar with the fields not replenishing deposits. I would spend hours pulling in millions I average $21,768,000 per run $8000+ a unit to Pittsburgh 2710 units a run. Yeah 13 min my hold is full and off I go then return with ale to New London for $5 million rinse and repeat In 3 hours I pull in approx 190 million with no effort, that ship is my bread and butter. Thanks again I no longer struggle for $$$. Some day I'll see ya in space and if you ever need a wing man I'm there.

I have been on WOW for a few days and I din't like it at all. This community is different I enjoy the strength and absorption a very strong, reliable, content, positive, happy connected community.This is good even if we are red to green , I still bow my head with respect. RE: A short survey - How did you find Discovery? - Ghoskul - 09-21-2014 By searching mods on moddb. Played crossfire 1.9 and some more but had a lot of bugs and disconnects and I ended here because this version is a lot more stable. RE: A short survey - How did you find Discovery? - An'shur - 09-21-2014 Other: I played vanila freelancer so many times.. Then I started to check mods on Youtube. I played many mods. Then I have found Discovery. RE: A short survey - How did you find Discovery? - henryk5pio - 09-23-2014 Hi all, in Discovery Freelancer play with a friend over a year ( thanks to him, I discovered this server ), but only now decided to officially say hello to the rest of their colleagues from the Discovery Freelancer RP 24/7 - although many times previously browsed this forum ![]() RE: A short survey - How did you find Discovery? - Corile - 09-24-2014 I always have been bugged by the fact that Discovery had more players than HHC and I couldn't get on that server because of some weird version. Then, after the global server went to hell, I kind of forgot about it. Later, when [BB] joined to HHC and gave every other pirate clan cheats, I just started looking around for a new server to play. My first encounter with Disco was short and turbulent, when I saw that I can't do the hardest mission in Alpha with a Sabre (bullsh*t, this mod is dumb). The second time I was flying a Pirate ID and saw that a transport actually had chances in killing me (wtf, transports can fight, this mod is dumb [please note that the biggest transport on HHC was a Train with whooping 450 cargo space and NOTHING else, no turrets, no cm, nothing, and to actually make profit with it you had to fly from Manhattan to Unknown Gamma {Omicron Kappa} and pray to the RNJesus that Nomad fleet doesn't spawn]). The third time I actually got Spazzy to teach me stuff and from that I actually got into the game properly. RE: A short survey - How did you find Discovery? - Eonaros - 10-18-2014 I found out about the game when my father bought an old computer in 2006. There was a folder with games in it. In the folder there were some very good 2D games and it was fun. In the bottom of the games list there was something dubbed Freelancer with a helmet as its icon. I entered the game. It was so awesome. Music , shooting ! Spaceships, planets ! The problem was I could only finish mission 1. It was frustrating. I soon found out it was demo version. Later in 2010 when I was 12 year old , my dad went to buy internet and stuff. I immediately typed Freelancer in the google thing ( Yes, my first search was about Freelancer ) and there it was. After a few search and stuff I downloaded the ISO and installed and started playing. I finished the game 5 times before I went to seek if it has multiplayer and stuff. Downloaded the Workaround patch and entered a server called Procyon Dedicated and went for Freelancer Universe. I played there until 2012 when I accidentally downloaded discovery ( 4.85 I think ) and it was freakin' awesome. Sitting next to Toledo and watching it was my main profession. Fighting the Nomads ! Wow ! Where am I , in 2014, still playin' an 11 year old game and having fun.
