' Wrote:Ok, if any of you played solo version of the game you all know that Blood Dragon High Comand is very much allies with the Order and also were in High Comand of the Order. Lord Hakua leader of the Blood Dragons showed us that. And, that would never change. All of Liberty would still be allies with The Order due to the fact they saved the President. Bretonia on the other hand would be against The Order. Since after all The Queen did get captured by the Nomads and they never did not mention what happened to her.
I'm afraid I'm going to have to disagree with this theory. As demonstrated by the dialogue in the final scenes of the single player campaign, the true role the Order played in the conflict, and even the conflict itself, were kept secret from the general public. Just because the queen may have been captured by the nomads (which I don't recall happening; I'll have to recheck the news feeds next time I play through) doesn't mean she would hold a grudge against the order. Now, allying with the Corsairs, that would probably tick off Bretonia pretty badly...
' Wrote:And, also The Wild would be better known as it's true self. The Coalation. The Coalation started the war in Starlancer. The Nomads started the war. That was why the Nomad ship came to Sol to destroy the system.
The Wild are not the Coalition. The Wild are remnants of the corrupted Rheinland military who are following the last instruction given to them by their nomad masters.
' Wrote:Remember the introduction movie to both versions. The war was fought for over 100 years and no one could remember why the war was started in the first place.
Now in the same exact storyline in Freelancer. No one knows why Rhineland is truely attacking Liberty, Bretonia, and Kusari in the first place. All we know is that there are 2 sides The Order and The Nomads. I say we revote for the storyline name of The Wild to their true name The Coalation and that Liberty Lawfuls and all Unlawfuls would be allied to The Odrer. And make Bretonia, Rhineland, and Kusari lawful enemies along with Nomads and The Coalation which I call them due to remaining true to the Storyline.
And, Chinese got eliminated by the Nomads in the original intro. Sol Sustem is gone. It would have cost production 250K to redo the invasion of Sol System by Nomads. And, then it would have wrecked the start-up of the game since you would have realized this was a war between The Order and Nomads.
This all assumes that the early version of the intro is still valid in the final storyline. In which case the following holds true, from what I gather from the early intro:
1. In the end, the two sides stopped their fighting when the nomad ship appeared, which tends to suggest that the majority of both sides knew nothing of them beforehand.
2. The Coalition was destroyed when the nomad ship destroyed the Sol system. Period. There weren't any left. (Which would cause problems for the SCRA, among others)
I, for one, don't think the early intro really holds any weight in the storyline. I think of it as an early draft form, not quite ready for the final version.
' Wrote:Even though Tekagi died Majority of Kusari High Command would still be infected with Rhineland and also Bretonia.
That would not explain the sudden end of hostilities at the end of the storyline. It's really quite simple: The Nomads are all forced into the Omicron sector of space by the hypergate. That includes all the ones inhabiting certain leaders in the house governments. With the infected people no longer in power, those who are left in the governments are filled in on what happened, and they stop the war. Everyone goes back to rebuild their houses, and the public is left wondering what the heck happened.
' Wrote:Which brings to the conclusion Freelancer 2. There needs to be a sequel. But, with Digital Anvil out of business. Freelancer 2 would not be made and we should make Discovery Freelancer 2 and stick to the storyline.
I have read every press release on this game and according to Digital Anvil Not 5 or 8 but 14 Skeeper Ships were made only 5 made it to Sirrus. Another thing The Nomads map was not just to Sirrus but to the whole entire Universe which means there would be a lot more Systems and perhaps galaxies destroyed. And, Nomads would even be more of a threat in Sirrus. Exception of Liberty. Where Liberty would have increased patrols.
Read the end log and you would realize all unlawfuls and Liberty would be the only allies in The Order. Bretonia relieved Tobias of command. I believe the Nomads definately infected Bretonia, Kusari, and still have Rhineland in control. The ending definately left more question marks than fillfilling the storyline.
Think of Nomads like this they eliminate galaxies and sytems. How do you destroy a galaxy inhabitated by enemies. First infect high comand and their leaders. Once they are infected. And, they have been weakened by attacks. They bring in their invasion force and finish them off. Which in Starlancer actually happened. Both Alliance and Coalation lost a lot of lives. Enough for Nomads to destroy Sol System, in original intro. Why The Exodus is so important. In Freelancer Storyline. Nomads started it again in the start-up of Freelancer. But, you do not know anything about Nomads Until halfway through the game.
Remeber Starlancer was an FPS not a RPG. So Nomads very much could have infected Coalation High Command.
Okay, I'm running out of individual quotes that IPB allows, so I'm addressing this all at once.
First of all, Tobias was never more than an enlisted fighter pilot. He was kicked out because he made inappropriate advances toward his commanding officer. Tobias was never involved with the Order. He left before we even meet Kress, who is the first person we meet who works for the Order.
The purpose of the nomads is not wanton destruction. They are parasites left behind to look after the Dom Kavosh (or however you spell it) empire. They saw the humans as invaders upon their turf. So they began a
plan to eliminate this invasion. Perhaps they first detected the humans shortly after the sleeper ships left for Sirius. They figured the easiest way to eliminate this threat is to simply wipe out the single system they were inhabiting. Fast forward about 800 years. When the Rheinlanders accidently awakened the Nomads in Sirius, the Nomads realised that they couldn't use the same tactic as before, since the humans now occupied dozens of systems throughout the sector. So they begin the process of starting a war between the houses. Orillian realises what's going on and forms the Order to stop them. The rest is history.
I agree that it would be great if there was a sequel to Freelancer, and I even have a few ideas of my own about it, but that is not the purpose of Discovery.
