Freelancer 2? - danskmacabre - 08-18-2008

I know this subject has probably been discussed to death.
But on the off chance there HAS been some recent news on this, is there any sign at ALL that there will ever be a Freelancer 2?

Or a release of the source code for FL1?

'fraid not. The project for Freelancer 2 was canceled, and a member of the Disco community has recently attempted to contact Micro$oft with regards to the FL source code. He merely received an automated response about not offering any support for FL anymore.

Bummer.

I emailed Microsoft some weeks back asking about any news of FL2, got the same automated garbage...
Oh well.

and im gonna be a jerk and keep trying until I get an actual human being!

You asked the same questions I did when I first started...so let me just
add to one of the questions before you ask it...unless you already did then
this is pointless.

Q:"I've noticed the NPC ships dont fire in groups they fire rapidly. How can I do
this?"

A: " Well You can't really unless you just press every button that responds
to the weapon you want to shoot in a random order."

Yeh i just talked to myself!

I didn't ask that yet, hadn't even thought of it really.
Heh, nice listening to your conversation with yourself though ;)

I might just get into a habit of emailing MS every month or so, they might eventually budge and give me a proper answer.
