Post a Review about the Discovery

[sean24]

Discovery Freelancer is a free modification for Microsoft games 'Freelancer' space combat simulator. The mod was created by Igiss 4 years ago. It is currently the most popular freelancer mod and has a large forum with over 14 thousand members. The official server, Discovery Freelancer RP 24/7 is the most populated freelancer server, with a 200 hundred player limit. The idea of the Discovery mod is for it to be an expansion for Freelancer, and pick up where the original freelancer left off.

Its major release this year was Discovery 4.85 Runion. The new version featured many new ships, systems and weapons to the mod, highly enhancing the gameplay experiance. Since then there have been three updates covering bug fixes, and some new ships.

Bad
________________

-Even with the Pensilvania (,newcomer) star system. There are still a large amount of players who do not roleplay and cannot be bothered looking up the rules. These people are known as 'lolwuts'. They ruin RP and engage a player as soon as they see he is red without any notice.
-NPC's ruin your roleplay just as much as lolwutters. Furthermore, you see them all the time.

I think discovery is a great mod, with a great community. I just wish that the community were more collectively supportive of roleplay. Unfortunaty, the lolwut issue is yet to be resolved and many peoples RP is ruined daily. I find a good method of countering the lultage is to roleplay back to them even if they are spamming you with 7331 rubbish and 20 battleship missle turrets.
