Making Friends With Rogues

Thu May 08, 2003 7:36 pm by terence darby

On MP I've been trying something out. I have never fired a shot in anger at anything except Xenos who it says are Rogue enemies. No missions, nothing, just trade. And only in New York.

It's been pretty boring I can tell you. But now I've just landed in the Junkers Rochester Base and started trading with them. I've got 2 questions.

1) If I keep beating up ONLY Xenos, will the Rogues like me enough to let me into their base?
2) Who do I have to attack to get respect from the Junkers?
3) Who can teach me to count?

4) Can I get Junkers respect without killing Rogues?
4) What are 'House Corporations'? (The Rogues and the Junkers don't like them.)

Yep! Thats how i got frienly with them

2) Who do I have to attack to get respect from the Junkers?

Xenos! Although try to find a system that has both Xenos and Junkers because it will take forever otherwise.

3) Who can teach me to count?

?

4) Can I get Junkers respect without killing Rogues?

Already answered - Kill Xenos.

4) What are 'House Corporations'? (The Rogues and the Junkers don't like them.)

I'd like to know this one too

Maybe they're like the LSF and Hogosha

1. Killing Xenos is how I got my Dagger in SP, so I'd say yes.
4. House Corperations are companies affiliated with a particular nationality.
AFAIK factions are:

1. House Corporations
2. House Police & Navy
3. House Pirates
4. Global Pirates (Outcasts & Corsairs)
5. Terrorists (Don't know of any Global)
6. Guilds (Global)
7. Global Corporations

Probably will need to edit this...

If you kill alot of Xenos, wont that make you become hostile with the Zoners?

Yes, it seems to, but it takes hundreds, When you're almost hostile with them, go and get a bribe

Bribing zoners also makes lots of people like you.

House corportations are like Synth Foods and other companies. If you can them it'll tell you. Other large freighters you see out there are mostly house corps. With a few exceptions e.g. GMG & the IMG.

I found out that if you bribe the Junker, your rep with most Liberty Criminals will go up abit and it also wont damage your rap with the Police/Military.
Infact, I think it would be good to bribe Junkers 1 or 2 more times to get Outcasts rep to Neutral.

Bundschuh too, but they're only important if you want a Stiletto or a Sunslayer.

Zoners are a big concern, but easy to fix with bribe ($70k-$80k) without
negatively effecting any other faction rep. Just gotta catch it before RED.

Actually, I was going to post this question:

In the early game, if a faction isn't on your rep list, does that mean that
they don't know you at all? For good or bad?

If that's the case, then they won't know what I did to their allies!

(Xenos rep 'heals' over time, from what I've seen)
