When I played this game,I often just parked my ship outside a planet,and let the background music and noise kinda run.It was very relaxing just listening to the in game voices of interstellar traffic pass by.I call this therapy:)
Omega 41. Red Hessian kill farming & Corsair friend becoming with my Valkyrie then Eagle finally moving onto the Titan & Omicron Gamma Bounty Hunter ass kicking. simply the best game I've played ever PERIOD
still vividly remember downloading and starting up the demo way back in early '03 for the first time. hearing this tune slowly come on as the main menu popped up with that beautiful space backdrop was all i needed to know i was in for something special
I loved this music, coupled with the very aesthetically spectacular systems in the later game it gave a real sense of reward for your work getting there.
Was always thinking the same thing. Was it just a generic sound piece they used in both soundtracks? Or did the Freelancer devs sample that from StarCraft? I wonder if we'll ever get an answer to that question...
@@Nederbird There's a lot of sample overlap like that. (Another example is a sound effect shared between Omega Danger and a track from Sim City 4.) I think the composers just used the same samples from a shared library.

Playing Elite: Dangerous and it fits perfectly. Omega 41 was amazing and so was the red giant, I forget the system.
The red giant in Omega 11
15 years later and this game still manages to awe and amaze

Been playing this game for so long, I just thought about the game and looked up the music....wow this brings back memories....
When trent explain about his friend to king at mission 2
Checking in, stopped by for some nostalgia.
Been here again, just for the moment. Being in Space.
It was the Dresden system.
That reminds me of an old trade cycle I abused for a lot of cash, Diamonds, H-Fuel, Mining Machinery, and Gold ftw!
A lot of radioactivity though. High risk for high reward.
@@mayaellam I once shot down a group of 27 Daumann Hawks in one of the missions in Dresden)I remember it for the rest of my life.
Not exactly music you tend to hear when mining diamonds in the ridiculously radioactive Von Rohe belt, but good music nontheless.
So nice of you to put Omega 41 as the cover.
***** agreed.
@OverusedChewToy I agree... i was so excited when i found the jumphole to Omega-41...
Sounds like a fuel station at the edge of the universe.
@commissarusa
Which has a jump route (I can't remember if it was a gate, or a hole) that goes to a system with smog... and also has asteroids
Omega 11 club, where you at?!
Solarius Station for life!
Freital gang watching over you.
Should have sent a poet ...

Yes. Look up Spectrasonics Distorted Reality 2. That’s your source library. It’s sampled in so so many things.
