You play a freelance pilot who makes a living as a mercenary who gets targeted in a conspiracy for alien artifacts.
During the devastating war depicted in this game's predecessor, StarLancer (2000), between the two future Earth's superpowers - Western Alliance and Eastern Coalition, the losing Alliance sends, in desperation, five colossal interplanetary spaceships to outer space to find a new faraway world to colonize and live there in freedom. Only four ships make it. They find several inhabitable planets, split the territory between them, form four Houses to rule these new worlds and create large communities similar to the countries that the colonists came from. 800 years later, troubles begin again when a causeless war breaks out between two of the houses and a mysterious conspiratorial terrorist group called The Order begins playing its own game. Edison Trent, a skeptical freelance spaceship pilot, is one of few who survived the Order's terrorist attack on an orbital space station. Trent and the other survivors are sent to Liberty, a hub city on a nearby planet colonized by the settlers from the US 800 years ago. There, he gets hired by a Liberty Security Force commander, Jun'ko Zane, to help her with a smuggling investigation. However, the survivors from the station soon begin disappearing and this time it's not the Order's fault. Trent and Jun'ko investigate and discover it all has something to do with a mysterious alien artifact recently found by the descendants of the German colonists. Now, targets themselves, Trent and Jun'Ko must find the leading expert on alien technology who went into hiding. They will travel through various star systems, find unlikely allies, work together with groups from other Houses and uncover a conspiracy that threatens not only them, but possibly humanity itself.
This is one of the Chris Roberts titles, he&#39;s the same designer behind the Privateer/Wing Commander Series. Not only is Chris Roberts quite the visionary but he&#39;s also one of the few people that still makes offerings into the non-linear Space RPG genre.<br/><br/>Freelancer is the sequel to Starlancer, both of which were sequels (in spirit) to the Privateer/Wing Commander series. The game starts off with an intriguing story that just pulls you in. From the beginning you&#39;re free to do missions, explore (which the game rewards via hidden bases, planets, jump holes, mining, and abandoned ships etc.) and you can land on almost every ship/base/outpost/planet/etc. in the game. When you land somewhere you&#39;re free to purchase ships, many different kinds of commodities for trading, take on jobs, talk in the bar, read the news, buy equipment etc.<br/><br/>Thats just a brief summary of all the good things this game has to offer. Now onto the bad. The story, while excellent, begins to go downhill about half way through. It feels rushed and the ending was a bit cliché. The first half is definitely the most intriguing. Some features weren&#39;t completed as designed and you can tell that the team was probably pressured to ship despite the loose ends. Namely the reputation system, the minor character cut scenes and dialogue, and non storyline jobs. The minor character cut scenes (talking to people in the bar) gets very repetitive, I would have liked to see a feature that lets you skip those and get right to the text of what they have to say. The reputation system works in relation to the story however it&#39;s importance after that dwindles..part of it ties into your ability to take on missions after you complete the story. The missions you&#39;re able to take are all exactly the same. They are basically combat missions with the names changed. I would have liked to have seen exploration, shipping, spying/espionage, investigative, scientific, and other types of diverse missions. It would have added much more to the re-playability of this already re-playable game. Because you&#39;re limited on the types of jobs you can take, you tend not to care about your reputation hence the fun kind of ends. It would have also been cool if you could buy you&#39;re own base or something along those lines which would have added to re-playability. <br/><br/>Despite it&#39;s shortcomings, which become obvious during game play, this title is still very much excellent and if you&#39;re into space at all you&#39;ll enjoy this one. It&#39;s definitely immersive. Hopefully Chris Roberts won&#39;t give up, because only he has the vision to combine next generation features with Hollywood quality storytelling and cinematics.
Freelancer is the greatest game that never was. Chris Roberts original idea was for a huge fully dynamic universe were your actions could in one system could affect another system eg pirating all the gold going to New Berlin thus increasing the price of gold on New Berlin. Unfortunately after microsoft bought digital anvil in order to get its hands on freelancer they became impatience with Roberts and sacked him his number 2 took over and sped up production abandoning alot of the stuff that should have been in the game, Scripted sub missions, subplots, upgrades to the sensors, the ability to actually join a group rather than just freelancer, and most importantly the ability to actually affect the universe in any real way. However it is a good game just not what it should have been. they laid the foundations of a mansion but only built a terrace on top. a missed opportunity. lets hope they make a wing commander 6
