Freelancer Black Dawn has come a long way since we first started, we've evolved and changed, from a small rather amateur modification team to a semi-professional group with our works. We have put a lot of hard work into the modification, and are hoping before long that we have an internal mod to play around with and test for balance. The huge systems, massive star ships and stunning visuals are still in the game, and have gotten a lot better since we first started doing them. The Halo array will be included in the mod, with the mod progressing quickly and smoothly we expect a public release with in two months, but nothing is being promised. But keep tuned! As a side note, to play on the server you have to register with an account as either UNSC or with the Holy Covenant.

Freelancer:Black Dawn needs you….Perhaps

After the disappearance of one of our lead developers and head admin, Descender due to an internet failure, the other two lead admins, Me (Dark_Angel) and Apoc Sky, have decided to carry on with the production with Freelancer: Black Dawn (FL:BD), in this quest for finishing the mod, and therefore take over the world with it’s awesomeness we need some extra help, if you can do any of these things, then we really could do with your help:

  • Graphics, encompassing several things:
    • Logos,
    • Textures,
      • Including Glow maps,
      • Planets,
      • Ships.

    • Conceptual art

 

  • UV Mappers would be really nice, but we have people learning to do this,

 

  • THN scripter,

 

  • Modelers for Covenant Designed ships and stations are needed,

 

  • Coders: for factions and solar objects.

 

Apart from that our Alpha version is coming along very nicely, we have most of the weapon effects done, and are working on balance, equipment is nearly finished too with Avenger currently working on that.

I also think that we should include little snippets of what we intend to do for Role-play, it’s a new system, and hell it is going to make a LOT of work for everyone developing the game, but it should bring the players the best experience out there, hopefully.

     Well basically, the RP goes like this, if you want it, then make it, basically the larger something is the more raw resources and money you will need to build it, however having a Super Cruiser with 5 MACs is great, and is perfectly fine, however, it will have 3 or 4 MLA point defense cannons, 3 or 4 archer missile tubes, no Shiva nuke slots, no launch bays and around 100,000 armor, the same as a frigate, And it will cost around 10 billion and 200,000 worth of resource units. There will be unpopulated systems where you have to take resources to build a station and such there, but you will have to actually take the resources there to an admin stationed there.

Those are just some of the many ideas we have; we are still developing new ones, and evolving new ones from old rules and ideas.
