Idiocy? Obviously! Much to learn, even for Veterans!

I went to a ship dealer once.

I clicked on a ship's picture.

It spun.

I was all liek 'omg, wtf'

It was about a year before I realized there were red and green lights on the trade lanes to show you where to enter, and even then someone had to show me.

O_O

I just found that out (From you), and I've played Freelancer since '05...

I just memorize the entry points...


EDIT: OH OH OH! GET THIS! When I first played Freelancer at my cousin's (I got it from him for free ^_^) back in '03, I actually SAT STILL while fighting! I sat in one place and spun around to face the enemies!:lol:

Well... thank you for telling a seven year Freelancer veteran that... I think I need to go wibble in a corner now...

I used to do the 'sitting duck' combat strategy where I'd sit still and swivel to shoot enemies. This was in SP, and by the time I got to Kusari, I figured that was no longer a valid maneuver.

I didn't learn shieldbreakers were useful until Disco year 2.

i played the game for a very long time before i realized that you can "turn on" your countermeasure dropper, so it automatically launches CMs when someone shoots missiles at you, by clicking on it in the HUD.

Something else I didnt know:$
