![]() ![]() Your ship is automatically equipped with a jump drive, and an energy bank to power it. They're fun to fly, and rack up the kills with, though. Once you've managed to garner enough credits to buy yourself a new ship and outfit it with all the weaponry and shields you want, then, regular missions become a cinch. Most of the non-plot missions are pretty standard, and the enemies are difficult only in the beginning, when your ship is on the junky side. The action in Privateer 2 is fast-paced - provided you're in a plot-related battle. But then, what's a space combat simulator without the flying around and shooting stuff, right? You just want to get out of your ship and take a look around. Gorgeous scenery depicting the type of planet you're currently visiting - high tech megacities, farming communities, lonely trading posts, or menacing pirate holds - tantalise your eyes and ears. One really nice touch to this game is the individual landing scenes that come up whenever you land. It's just the sort of place a person could lose him/herself in with no trouble at all. ![]() The entire universe has a stylishly dark feel about it. Others can be a little more complicated, like the long campaign of furious space battles, or even hostage rescue (a la Dirty Harry, except in space). Some of them are relatively simple: search and destroy, or patrol a set region of space. In this case, being a privateer, you're required to fly a few missions for each of the people you meet to get to the next stage of your search. Just like in the first game, all information comes at a price. Meet shady bartenders, jovial priests of beer, suspicious businessmen, and sultry privateers every one of them might be able to help you in your quest, but not for free. Each visit will trigger certain events, helping Lev Arris learn a bit more about himself. All the while, you have the choice to visit key plot points. Like the prequel, you have to slowly build up your character's ship and stats, gathering as much money as you can to upgrade. Making his escape, he manages to secure a simple ship of his own, and that's where you - the player - will come in. As the intro scene shows, Arris learns that something shady's up with his past when the hospital he's recuperating in is attacked by unknown soldiers looking for him. Only his name is known, and that only because it was written on his cryopod. Brought out of his coma, he discovers that he's unable to remember anything about himself. Your character, Ser Lev Arris (Clive Owen, whose English accent sends shivers down a maniac voice actor fan's spine, was found in a cryopod of a wrecked spacecraft. Privateer 2 focuses on the search for a man's true identity in an almost entirely new 'universe' ouside of the Gemini Sector.
