If the problem is that most people see how many people are online and do not log because of it, remove the players counter for some time. Maybe decrease the respawn time as 1 hour is too much for the situation now. Maybe the merging of some systems into bigger ones will be good for players interaction and creating new ones with mysterious and danger enemies will be cool too. You go to Shrine, there is that Titan ship spawns you need to kill to get to the Shrine. What really intrigues me are the unknown things and systems you can find jump from one system to another into the unknown. As in Vanilla it was such cool thing to get to Malta or Crete and discovery Sabre and Titan ships. Freelancer is cool game, we all need to just log and do not look the da** players online div
