I would pour money into any game publisher, even ACTIVISION to make a HD remake of this nostalgic game.

As sad as it is, what you have to remember is that all these games studios and publishers are businesses first, meaning money comes first.

Its not that they think Frelancer 2 wouldn't sell, its that the money they would spend on Freelancer 2 could be spent making a game that they know would sell better.

@MinecraftersAhoy84 Right, FL 2 woudl be still going online on a console? You're serious? Because thats never gonna happen on a console for a game liek freelancer.

FL was always kept alive by usermade mods. I dont see how FL2 which was soloely ment for Xbox would be succesfull, Its just like all those unreal tournee 3 games on consoles. They are a hugefailure on consoles compared to pc version

@SanguinetheWOlf I checked out that crossfire mod and it is way better than discovery ty so much. discovery didn,t have a story in 4.85, but it did in 4.84, still crossfire whoooops it arse. yes i agree with not havin it on pc. that is what microsoft did wrong. its cause thay bloody own xbox, and not every single computer on earth belongs 2 them. i think swat and anvil should make sequel and make it 4 pc. thats wat should happen. thx again

@Samdaminecraftman Thats not freelancer 2, and fyi, half of the stuff they put in the mod is fan made rather then unique. Go check out Crossfire, Now if that had singleplayer, that would have the biggest chance to become a unofficial sequel because they actually have a story behind nomads etc.

And I am glad freelancer 2 got cancelled. Simply because it waso nly developed for the x360 and not for PC. My bet is that they wanted it on x360 for DLC.... meh.
