Hello there fella's. I used to play Freelancer's multiplayer years ago, I played on some RP server. This morning, I tried to play again, however, the servers were down. I read about that and I needed a global server workaround.
So, I found Discovery GC, an RP server, sweet.
Anyways, I read a bunch of lore stories, and rules, before I joined (read other posts)
I also have a skype: Beauregard.Stauffer
I shall get in game in around 1 hour and a half.
Also, feel free to advertise your faction here.:D;)
For factions, I'd say read through these and find one that really interests you lore-wise and see if there's a player faction around them.
If you're into Bretonia, we'd love to start you off at Gateway Interstellar. Obviously tiny group but we're fun and Gateway has a lot of neat alliances.
