Freelancer players listen up!
After a long long long loooong pause, the legendary Aurora server is back up and running!
If you're after a good online server for FL, dont look no further. Aurora uses the TNG mod with newly upgraded Aurora mod, adding even more ships to the already big list of flyable ships. Quote:

Ah, some fond memories of Freelancer MP. Might scope it out again. A lot of egos there though, I remember quitting once because just about everyone I played with was a dbag except people who were in my clan. Even some of my clanmates were *******s to everyone.
I do miss utterly vanquishing Eagles in my Titan and watching people cry about it though. |

Dromedary? I don't think I ever came across one of those. If I did, I don't remember it. Is it a mod ship?

TNG+Aurora adds tons of new ships, so you can pretty much forget the stock ships if you want to have any chances of survival. Tho, it's more based on what weapons you have, but it doesnt hurt to have a agile fighter like the Havoc. (that is, until you come against a Vorlon planet destroyer, a fatty too big to even fit the tradelanes )

What version are you running on the server?
I'm playing on Freelancer RP server using the discovery mod 4.85.

Can't say I like this wholesale adding of ships to the game, kinda destroys the immersion IMO. When I played the first time it was usually on servers with more...err...simple mods.
