More about the Bountyhunt event:
TOMOROW ON 2/3/2008 at 20:00 GMT
I invite everyone on the Global Bounty Hunt event today at 20:00 GMT.
A random victim will b choosen, after that all players must hunt the victim to win 50 milions.
If the victim remains alive for 45 minutes it will win 50 milions.
NOTE: The victim isn't alowed to dock on stations/planets, hide deep in the space (i.e. 500k from the nearest base), nor logoff during the event otherwise the event is canceld and a new victim will be choosen.
Hunters are allowed to do whatever they want to kill the victim.
The event will be lead by Count Cornelius.

PS: I hope this topic isn't to advertisngtype... the main purpose of Plasmafire is to create a new version of Freelancer not to be cuncurency to other servers.
Ooooh, I've seen this one! They've done some amazing stuff, especially with the balance and graphics. The ship selection is rather limited compared to Discovery's, but just undocking New York and seeing what they've done to the system's overall ambient realism is amazing! I have to say, Damn Fine Job.

This mod certainly does rock. Ships go faster and weps have longer range. It's a lot faster pace than Freelancer, much more arcade game feel to it. I almost say it's a completely different game.
I played for a bit (still a lot of crashes:().... when I went back to "normal" FL, I had to take some Prozac!:Dah j/k
Wep effects, audio, ship banking, everything's been revamped. Very ambitious mod.
PLEASE tell us how you made the capital ships ugh.. unbumpable?:P
Normally, all ships have the same weight and all that stuff, so if you touch a Carrier with a Starflier, the Carrier spins like a rabbid duck. In Plasmafire though, if you would do the same thing, the Starflea would be space dust, while the Carrier remains still.
edit: but yes - if you knew how to give capital ships their deserved "mass" aswell as maybe... stop the shaking when the hull is it - i can see a whole new world of capthip rebalance for disco, too.
I played on a version 1.0 server once called J4F (just4fun) and they had Bounty Hunter events, and i did really like them. I hope that Discovery can put Bounty Hunter events onto the server, there really fun, especially when you pick people at random who are in a big group:P(that happened to me once, except i wasn't in a group, but i lived:D).
Another interesting thing is item collecting. The home system on this server was Shikuko, and a admin would hang around by the base you start and and say in the console "bring me 18 copper and i'll give you 10 mi" or something like that. So everybody would race to get the 18 copper and take it to the admin. I allmost won once, but someone beat me who was only 3k infront of me :<(.
When i get home i'll download it and try it out, but i have some questions.
What ship do you start in? How much money do you start off with? Where do you start? Do you start with good weapons?
[17:45:39] Wolfs Ghost (Murphy): Tom, you have problems. Go kill yourself.
[19:25:12] Johnny (Jam): Tomtom, I will beat you with a spoon.
[14:22:56] Prarabdh Thakur: KILL HIM WITH A SHEEP.
[17:40:48] Eagle (Junes): Tom should be slapped with a spoon.
[11:32:18] Warspite: Thank you for being so awesome Tom. <3
[18:17:36] Metano: I love you tomtom
[20:06:24] Warspite: I will seriously give you epic head.
