Does Freelancer have multiplayer support?
Freelancer does indeed support multiplayer. Fortunately, there is CO-OP multiplayer, which allows players to fly within the same universe (exact limit as of the last showing of the game was 16, but not sure) and trade, fight, explore, and complete missions. The multiplayer is basically one persistant world (like a small MMO game), it could be run off of a dedicated server all the time, or saved and played when the players felt like logging on and playing. It would play like most games today, using one computer as the host of the game. Players can hook up using simple LAN-type play, and it is expected you could find games through Microsoft’s own Zone online gaming service.
