Opinions on Freedom Force?

[JohnT]

I just bought this game in a 4-pack (including NFS 3: Hot Pursuit, Earth and Beyond, and a C&C games) 'cause it looked cool. I've rarely heard it mentioned on these boards and I was wondering what others thought of it?

Best game ever!

Great game for SP

Extremely bad game for MP


Haven't played the game for a year... can't find the cd

It's a great game. I've seen it being sold for $10, and I couldn't believe my eyes, considering the crap that consistently gets shoveled out to consumers.

Tons of fun, you'll love it.

El Diablo rules.

Have you tried out any of the hidden heros, Guy?

[Guynemer]

Hidden heroes?

[Imran Siddiqui]

Mmmm, FF

Good fun. I beat the main mission in a week on constant play. Very well worth it.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnbot!

Is there a mission/campaign editor included by any chance?
The place I'm ordering Galciv from is selling this in a pack with C&C-somethingorother and I was thinking of getting in the same order as Galciv...

Use a text editor to edit the "init.py" file in the game folder.
Add the following lines to the file:

import ff
ff.CON_ENABLE=1
APP_ENABLE_XTRACHARS = 1

You'll get three extra characters added to your list of possible recruits.

Hmm...I'm just working through the SP game. Great fun, and perfectly cheesy.

Excellent fun SP game. I would recommend it to anyone with even a mild interest in the superhero genre.

I was disappointed to find recently that the main forums for it seem to be closed. I suspect this means that the publisher will not be financing further patches to help MP.

They've been moved. I posted the link in my first post in the thread.

Cool. Anyone particularly interesting?

1) Blackbird: She shows up during one of the Shadow missions. She starts off with a good range weapon, can become a flier, and learns few useful status changing attacks. However she is lacking in power.

2) Iron Ox: He shows up after the Ant's origin movie, IIRC. Basically a togher, slower version of Minuteman.

3) Supercollider: He shows up during the Deja vu missions and is Freedom Forces answer to the Juggernaut and the Hulk. He does melee attacks and does them very well.

Sadly none of them come with thier own orign movie.
