    It's a shame. I used to play Freelancer on a custom server kept up after the official ones went down. It even had custom content and areas. All run on a old school fourm. I think it was called Discovery?

    There are people hungry for this kinda game hypothetically, so hungry they'll take anything as long as someone promises they'll give them it... eventually.

      Freelancer Discovery was pretty great. I think it's still up and running actually. Also, free. I remember trying to RP as a deep space research vessel that needed a shit-ton of contraband drugs for "science reasons" lol.

        Surprised to hear that it's still going and also find someone else who played it here. Wasn't the server quite small? a few thousand?

        I think I RP'd as a traveling drone ship ran by AI. I was pretty young at the time however and my spelling was awful so I dread to think what it was like for others.

          I think it was hundreds when I played, and the amount of game space made running into folks pretty rare outside the core areas, but I was playing with someone else (who went back for a bit last year, hence why I think it's still up) and we still had some cool experiences with pirates, cops, etc. But yeah definitely wasn't expecting it to pop up here either lol.
