I-war 2 is closer to freelancer, than I-War 1. And I would recommend
several of the Mods which make it easier to play. But the combat is
intense.

However, I would recommend that you also give I-war 1 a try. It may be
mission based, like starlancer and x-wing, but it does a wonderful job
of Immersion and making you feel that your their. I have a Legal spare
copy of the original I_war and gladly send it over to you for the
price of the postage.
