All friendly or neutral

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

All friendly or neutral

I've done it. It's not that hard once you know what to do...

As far as buying your was into people--
Buy with the near/completely in the red people only if their enemies are all very good allies with you.

Missions- Most every organization has different stations/planets. Each base has missions against different organizations.
A) Only do missions against people already in the deep red
Only do capture, destroy/capture cargo, capture missions against peple in deep red or high green. Once you kill your target, run and take the damage. This is because if you only kill one enemy, the rep with the people you're fighting only slightly drops, while the rep with the ones you're helping raises quite a bit. (How I got my Titan )
C) I forget what C was....

Use that /\ method to get people in the deep red's enemies in full green, then buy into the people in deep red. You're in neutral/green with a load.

Keep doing this and in a few days and a few hundred thousand creds later, you won't be attacked again....well....damn nomad bastards....

I'm working on getting all green now, almost done it.

yes, yes, we all know it's possible. But still, it would make the game very very boring, wouldn't it? What are you going to do all the time, just fly around? You need to be hostile with someone

Try the opposite. KILL EVERYONE and be in red with everyone. (and I do mean everyone) Can't land anywhere, nanos and batts are only from salvage... lemme tell ya... It's a rough game. Especially with the rebalance mod. Try to do a lap when everyone hates you.

No, this is where you go and start robing from trains

Robbing, too...

Here's a fun one:
In Rhineland, the police, military, and corporations like me, the criminals hate me.
In Liberty, everybody loves me. Police, navy, LSF, corporations, Rogues, Xenos, everybody is green.
In Kusari, everybody hates me except the Blood Dragons and the Kusari Navy, which are neutral. Yet the Kusari Police and the GC are all the way into the red.
In Bretonia, everybody hates me. Police, military, corporations, local criminals. Everyone in Bretonia tries to kill me on sight. Everyone. IMG too. I cannot dock anywhere in Bretonian space. Waaaah.
Both the Bounty Hunters and the Corsairs love me. Full green on both. I play both sides against the Hessians in Omega-41. Diplomacy rules!

Someone from FL makers said that you can't be friendly with everyone in game. This is not true. You can be a friend to everyone. I am. No cheating. Here is how (single player):

1) Take a good ship (Titan/Sabre), shield level 10 and nomad guns. Salamanca Mk II turret and Tiazona del Cid will be nice to have too. For this you have to be in good terms with Corsairs.
2) Earn some money for bribes. $2.000.000 should be enough ;-). You can do this at Crete, flying for Corsairs. They have good prices and hard missions. This can help you in 1).
3) Start flying missions killing Outcasts, Corsairs and Xenos.
Don't care about GMG, IMG, Unioners, Rouges, Mollys, Zoners and Bounty Hunters. Just don't let them become hostile. Make everyone as "green" as you can, however don't waste time if your reputation is about 8 blocks to the right. If nesessery, bribe companies and police.
4) Start killing only Xenos. The best place for this is Beaumont(Texas). This will slowly rise your rep with most criminals, Outcasts, Corsairs, Hessians, Mollys, Bounty Hunters, Rouges ect. It is rather long and boring procedure (easy missions).
5) You loose with Bundschuh and Hogosha (and some police), so sometimes you will have to go and fly a mission for them. Take only missions to destroy base only, and after kaboom just run away. Don't kill fighters. Leave/enter bar or station if no such missions.
6) Don't care about Zoners, you can bribe them anytime. This way you can make all "green" except Xenos.
7) Go to Tau 37 and start killing Zoners near Freeport. Make your rep -5,5 blocks to the left. Don't go any further and make them hostile! Just run away when done. Leave the system and then return to Freeport. Find 3 people offering you bribe for Zoners at the SAME TIME. Buy ALL of them. You may have to leave/enter bar for several times to find 3 bribes.
8) Repeat 7) to make Xenos happy. This also will max your rep with GMG & IMG.

The space is now all friendly (at high level) so you can go explore bases, buying high level weapons and listening interesting rumors. Better your rep is, better rumors will be and better weapons you will be able to buy. Or you can choose to fly missions for any faction you want. You can also make a BIG money flying a frighter, no one will try to shoot you or ask for cargo drop. All the game is however little boring from that point. ;-)

BTW, In a ship like 1) you don't need friends. ;-)

How to make a mission without any killing:
Take a mission from Mollys at Molly asteroid field. Just wait for enemies to blow themselves up in mines. Instant fun.
