Well, if you don't believe me about the mods for Freelancer, there are thousands. Just that I know of, and hundreds more a least I don't know of. Every time I go to the forums I find a new mod in production. I am telling you, there is more mods. I can give you links if you want to count them... I, myself have made dozens of mods. Ships, weapons, systems, you name it. I have done it. And I know many more people like me in FL comunity... Let me tell you, its huge. the mod comunity for it is absolutly massive. Bigger then Battlefeild 1942, a game known for its mods. (That I also mod, but its much, much harder then FL) Oh, my favorite mod to date is Evolutions 1.28 by pathfinderstudios. I am almost loyal to that mod. lol Don't get me wrong, there are great starwars, bab 5, star trek, andromedia, and any other series you can think of mods. I like the starwars mods... they work great. with the good ones you think its actually a SW game. not like the SW mods for BF1942... yuck. *cough*galactic conquest*cough*

Umm... I think you misunderstood the point. I don't believe you when you say that the game is more moddable than SEIV. There are only a few games out there that even approach the level of moddability of SE4... Where moddability is the capability of being modified by the user, what can be modified, and just how far the modifications can go in providing a totally different gaming experience.
Certainly, there are a lot more mods to be downloaded for Freelancer. But when you take the fact that it has a huge player base, compared to the very small player base of SE4, it doesn't mean much when comparing to SE4... When you take the size of the player bases for the games into account, it paints a different story... Also, mods that just do something like add a new weapon are not really "mods," in the sense that something like Pirates and Nomads or Proportions is a mod. To me, "mod" refers to a major game overhaul. Fiddling with a couple of values is more of a "hack" or a "plugin" than a full "mod..."
