Im a big fan of the original, and I always found the gameplay so awesome that graphics never really mattered that much. After flying for a few minutes you were just there... in that Galaxy far far away. But this new Mod looks really good (eapecially the capital ships) and they kept the original gameplay. Did anyone already went back to thecockpit and took down a few Tie Fighters...?

Ok, I sucessfully played the first mission and had a blast . I then sucessfully played the second mission and succeeded as well, identifying all hostile ships. I then attempted to take a screenshot of the stardestroyer which arrives last, for you fellow members of the vogons allianze - and died. Will try again. What I can say so far is that everything is true to the original game but just looking and sounding much better. This mod really is something...

I think it may be possible. Im not sure how well this works for the later more difficult missions. The key to succeeding in most X-wing missions is to quickly get an overview about the location (and mission objective) of the different waves of Tie-fighters and Bombers. And then clearing them out of space asap. This second part always required a joystick for me. So if you just want to take a look, it may be ok. But to really dive in a good controll is probably needed. That said, I know people who sucessfully played Freelancer without joystick and I never really managed this
