Those are dispensers; you put the item you want to dispense (water bucket) inside and when activated, they dispense. If activated again while containing a bucket, they will “grab” the water and store back in the bucket
This was one of my favorite games in when I was younger, almost 20 years ago now. I had no idea people were keeping it going. It makes me happy to see that it’s still alive.
okay i watched a little. Very very cool! I didn’t know that this was what Freelancer looked like these days, and this is a very cool way to find out about this Discovery mod. Thank you for sharing! Seems very interesting, I might have to read more about it when i get some free time.
This mod reminds me a lot of STALKER Anomaly, which was a mod for the STALKER games that dropped within the past few years. Basically stitches the maps from all three STALKER games together, fixes all the bugs, and adds a much deeper metagame. GAMMA was the refinement that came out a year or two ago, which slaps a ton of extra mods into it so it looks kind of like a modern game on top of everything else. I have not played either of these mods (I decided to try playing through one of the main games instead), but i know they blew up in a similar way to this one.
The mod has been consistently going since 2005, so they’ve had a lot of time to build up assets! There’s a lot of snazzy new features, but everything still aims to integrate with Freelancer’s original setting and lore. Mixed success, but it works more often than not. There’s a community Discord if you wanted to take a look around or ask questions.
This is visually impressive but with what they’re showing in gameplay, it doesn’t look much like 4 or 5 like I think I expected? The aiming looks like it’s the 2 and 3 style of stop, hold aim, move gun. That said, it also showed crouch walking which isn’t in 3. I’m curious how similar or different it plays.
My big points to hit for a remake would be an improved camo and surgery system. The original game has you pressing start a lot. Like a lot. Having a quick menu for camo would be gigantic. Surgery right now is mostly, you’re in a boss fight and got hit, now pause and see if you ran out of bandages yet.
Crouch walking was in the 3ds remake of 3. I fully expect this to be identical to that version and gameplay with no enhancements to anything except the visuals.
Nope! Download away! In 2012, Microsoft used to even have a self hosted download link acknowledgment of its abandonware status but it’s gone. So it here
but people are playing it now. dont they know its garbage? any game that doesnt have 90fps and has a loading screen is an automatic zero out of ten. its the way of gaming
I played the demo the other day. It really like it. Really nails the kind of PS1/DC survival horror vibe. I was getting a lot of Blue Stinger vibes from it
