Freelancer 2 petition

[Marcus_Lucius]

Hello people of Void. Some of you might already know that Freelancer 2 project was cancelled when Digital Advil collapse. Many Freelancer fans would like to have a second part to the original story line. I have here is a petition for Microsoft to create the game.

Hopefully this petition will convince Microsoft to create the game.

Suppose for a moment that it really did convince MS to develop (or publish) Freelancer 2. Don't you think it would be an X360 exclusive title then? :P Sadly, games like the original Freelancer are not Microsoft's focus now. And they wouldn't make an exclusively multiplayer game (for all intents and purposes, an MMO) either: that's simply not their focus now.
What they could do, however, would be to sell the rights to someone else. That would probably be for the best.

Project Lonestar, supposed Freelancer two. Was dropped a long time ago, shame....

Freelancer 2 will never exist, Microsoft will never release it, its a shame.

I agree with what he has said.

They would most likely sell the rights.

And besides this,there are number of new games coming up similar to Eve Online,FL 2 if it comes out ever would be similar to them in many ways,like pay-every-month to play.
