Freelancer 2 [X360 - Cancelled]

What a shame. I loved the original. It was actually the first PC game i bought for myself… (Im only playing console) And still to this date i have not purchased more than 5 PC games ever i think.

I never played Freelancer, but when i found out about the cancelled sequel, i became really interested in the game. Sooner or later, i’ll try it. The concept is really interesting and this could have been a wonderful game. Shame on whoever decided to cancel it… even if they had their good reasons.

I don’t know if it will do any good but there are pensions being brought up all over the place to have the game made. If Microsoft sees a big enough interest from fans they will have no choice but to finish the project.

I only just found out that they cancelled a sequel after thinking it would be cool if they made one. it looked really good and i loved the original so much the disc broke i had so many mods on it!!!

:(( sory to hear that:( freelancer was and it is the best game i ever played!my opinion is that the microsoft will gonna create the freelancer 2 afterall bcs i navigate over the internet and there are manny people like me who want a game just like this<a unic game like freelancer.I was played freelancer with interes bcs the subject was something new and verry diferent from what i played before:) and i liked alot.P.S. sry about my english

Really Shame. Fantastic game and nice story! Best space game ever. I bought Freelancer in 2002 it was amaizing and still is! I still play Discovery mod online.

It is a fact and a big Shame, that there is no other better futuristic Space Rp Game Than Freelancer, throug past 8 Years.

Its Amaizing

The first Game was excellent! To upgrade your ship, the exciting missions, and the difficulty good, a bit raising with the missions. I’m so sad, that no second part will be developed. I’ve tried some of the other Games playing in the space, which are meant in Freelancers german Wikipedia Article, but they are, out of graphics, worse.

Maybe they canceled it because they wanted to wait until a new DirectX would be made to benefit form better graphics?Or next generation gaming consoles? I dunno.
I am writing little 3D games using Microsoft’s game development kit. Maybe I will gather up some friends and we can write the sequel one day. It’s the bare basics of graphics as I see, but an interesting game.
Shouldn’t be that hard. Like maybe just 5 years of programming? I hope they will make it soon.

I found out about the game through one of the games soundtrack creators, Andrew Sega. He was one of those who made the soundtrack for Unreal Tournament

this is a lay, that images and video are from another game..

freelancer, is the first and only of its kind. it has concepts used in eve online but also much different concepts used in games like freespace, the threat, wing commander, etc. if i was to bet what the best time for a sequel or atleast another game with a similar engine, I WOULD SAY THE TIME IS NOW. So, Dark Anvil, Microsoft or anyone from the orginal project crew, please act on my words and release something. With eve online going strong and star trek being released, long time FL fans WILL return. and with new concepts/ controls added, new fans will be created.

I’ve been playing Freelancer since it came out. Of all the games I’ve had on my computers, I still play freelancer, to this day… I think it’s the only game out there (PC) that has just so many options, outcomes, planets and star-systems to visit that you can just get lost in the game. I know I do… As I reflect on the technology of the time back on 2003, Freelancer was a pretty advanced ‘first person’ game. As 2008 approached I knew a “Freelancer 2″ would be just an awesome game to play from a stand point of Graphics, PhysX & DDR. I’ve literally been on the edge of my seat waiting for someone to figure out that this game today would make a company a lot of money..! There is a Freelancer following that they must not be aware of if they were stupid enough to cancel production… (Sigh) and now I’m teased and tortured by looking at some of these graphics from an ACTUAL Freelancer 2 build. Foolish to cancel that. Just foolish!!

im a member of Shattered Worlds War Torn & play heavly on the server. and it is a huge shame to see that Freelancer 2 was so close to being released & than just cancel a great game such as Freelancer. that makes no sense. this game is bigger than any other game.

which is why some company should rethink this & pick this back up with the devteam that was working on this & give the game the rightfull end we all need. which is to say. a never ending world of Freelancer.

we want Freelancer 2. we demand Freelancer 2 – The Wars Of Sirius.

This is one of the few space shooters that I own, and I absolutely love it!

I definately agree. The story had a good little spin on it; and with the last statement made definately sounded like a sequel was going to be in the works. Bummer that it was originally intended for X360, though. If they did make it for the PC, I’d definately jump on it.

I would also hope that it would work similar to the Elder Scroll saga (keep the character, level, goodies, etc); if not, then it’d be another freelancer a generation or two down from Trent.

Thats a shame most of us military really get into it over here i was showing some of the joes freelancer and they bought the original starlancer and freelancer on ebay cause they thought it was amazing i hope u all reconsider halo great and so is the COD but its time for something new a flying game that even people who aint in to sims like but u all make the millions we just make u rich with ideals

Shame… It was a great phun playing FL.
Shame on you M$! There are not so many things that make ppl like you, and FL2 was one of them.
