' Wrote:This is a great example of someone coming to the mod and playing it as a mod, not a server.
Because to be honest, Discovery mod is sort of crap.
It's got a whole lot of stuff. That's it, new... stuff. None of it interesting.
What makes it is the server plugins and the server itself.
It's too bad the latter is sort of crap, too.
But of course, he's wrong because there's a status quo to be maintained, right?
Not much from you.
Whinner as is.
Guys made huge work to please you, and you dare to write such things. No respect at all, think of it.
Oh, and the issue is in the players, but not in game.
I don't know about you all guys, but I like current version way more than any past ones I played.
Also, for me it is not the mod that is sometimes bad, it is players that are bad sometimes.

Of course there will be bad players, like those who don't follow the rules... but what can you do..
' Wrote:Personally i think you guys ruined Freelancer! You set out to improve it and now it is just a ridiculously hard game right from the begining! I mean a game should be friendly at start, to allow one to familiarise itself with the game, and then take on some more challenging tasks! But this realase takes the whole fun from playing! I can't even complete a lvl 1 mission with the Starflier, (wich you have to use at start because you cannot afford any other ship) because it takes me ages to bring down their shields( enemies shields i mean), and after that another 5-10 minutes to kill just one ship! What is with this?? Freelancer was almost perfectly balanced the way it was, but you had to make changes like energy drained to 0 when you engage cruise engines, and now, energy regeneration greatly slowed and cruise speed diminished up to the point it becomes redundant to even engage cruise speed! And all of this because some incompatibility with the ship that I don't even understand! If there was to be an incompatible weapon or shield or something, wouldn't it be more logic that I should be advised when I install it? Granted, the thing with player controlled space stations is very cool, but that's about it.
To sum up, I would like to say just that I really appreciate all of your hard work that you did, I really do. I'm writing all of these because I would very much like to express my oppinion, and that's all. It is called constructive criticism. maybe you'll just delete this thread before it even get's read by someone, but then the loss wovld me on you. I hope 4.87 will make Freelancer the reason we get off the chair feeling good and relaxed, not the reason we smashed our keyboards and threw the monitor off the window:P
I hope my wish will not go unanswered... You can do so much more I have faith in you. Good luck and have a safe flight!
A true freelancer.
Well I must disagree with You - I played FL Vanilla few times - and imho it was too easy...
HF with was able to alone take down a BS? please...
and Yes - it's hard to earn money alone in Discovery, a specially in misions - but that is why there is plenty people who could help You, Angels, other pilots...
I earn my first milion in mining, helping other ships to fill their cargohold by helium or some other stuff.
abd by that cash I buy my first cargo ship - and now I got bilions... and often I use that money to help newbies like You,
little ship You could use in many ways, to mine, to scout, to do misions with others, start in contests (in Penny there was a project where You could win some cash)
No need since you can draw cash.
Anyway the new guy needs to read a bit on forum first- discovery is extremely new friendly actually- no ship loss on death, no credit penalties, damn easy to make much money really fast, player factions that help new players and give them shared ships, 500-600 m loans etc...

I'll suggest the topicstarter to contact one of the [Angels] ingame for some quick start tips. I'll also advise him to watch his tone - along with a few other folk herein. If you do not like this game or mod, there are plenty of other places to enjoy on the internet.
In short, enjoy yourself or leave to find something better. If you need advice, plenty of folk who are willing to help out.
Wide awake in a world that sleeps, enduring thoughts, enduring scenes. The knowledge of what is yet to come.
From a time when all seems lost, from a dead man to a world, without restraint, unafraid and free.

' Wrote:The only thing bad about this mod is the technerfs.
Tech nerfs are the result of tech-mixing.
Tech-mixing is result of couple factions with OP ships and couple factions with underdog ships.
Tech nerf is good thing- so no OP options are available, sadly the OP and underdog ships should had been fixed first then add the tech nerf.
