Oh yeah, freelancer transports are back. I figure this is a decent compromise, the super trains can stick to the lanes, and edge world pilots can decide between cargo and protection.

Did you tab out while launching the game, or did you have another game running as you launched the game?

re-installed, game launches properly. I think the issue was the antivirus. Suggestion for doofuses like me, can you add a reminder on the launcher to disable the antivirus when there's a game patch?

Arrgh. Lost my character :facepalm: how do i edit the accounts.xml? I have the old multiplayer id

But why do the Escopetas still have 600ms if all of the other Corsair Guns have 650ms, including Ignis which would suit well for a shotgun loadout?
