Had this Game since its first sale on PS4, i think around 2015. I always hoped that they'd some day would add PSVR support as well, just like they have on PC. And with the announcement of Odyssey i thought all my dreams for this magnificent piece of video-game history would finally become reality... But nope, Frontier instead decided to stop all further development for consoles.. Instead offering to transfer your save-file over to PC, if you choose to buy the game there again, for full price. Without any premium currency of course...
This game was crowdfunded on the promise, that it would become open source, once it would no longer be profitable enough to maintain by Frontier.. However Frontier now employs every scummy monetization strategy, to prevent that from happening, while also running the game into the ground.
Selling Pre-equipped Early-Access ships for Premium currency instead of expanding the Sandbox they created in any meaningful way is only one of many.(If you want to know more, i highly suggest watching "the Yamiks" on Youtube)
Instead of using the ship building mechanic that works so well, for ground vehicles and maybe even gear for your foot missions as well, you just get two cookie cutter vehicles(only one if you're stuck on console) and pre-made Guns and Suits instead. Ships cannot interact directly with ground units in Horizons, besides docking and cargo transfer. Trust me, I've tried to fly CAS missions with purpose build ships, over Guardian structures for my friends.
This game needs to be taken over by the community who truly cares for it!
There is so much wasted potential... In fact an entire GALAXY of potential!
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
