Faction question(s)

All right ... the way I have it figure so far ... if you do missions for the 'police types' in an area ... all the 'good guys' in the area like you, and all the bad guys hate you.

Are the 'bad guys' linked? Like if I kill rogues, do junkers get mad at you and vice versa?

I have read that killing xenos makes a lot of factions like you, except for the xenos of course

Is it possible to make at least a 'small' area completely safe, or is faction kinda like a constant pool, just re-distributed depending on what you do?

Okay ... I have figured out what I want to do.

I want to get a Dromedary at the Mactan Base.

1. How much does it cost?
2. What is the easiest/best way to gain faction with Hackers?

Open your profile window (F9) and you will see your faction standings. if you click a faction it will display it's enemies and allies. Killing allies or members of the faction themselfs, you will get an worse standing. Killing an enemy of that faction will get you an better standing.

So if the police and/or bounty hunters like you, the criminals (Liberty Rouges, Outcasts, Blood Dragons, etc) will dislike you. It's all connected, you can only be neutral to everyone (difficult), not friendly. It is possible to get yourself disliked by everyone.

The dromedary cost about 63k. Not too much.

As for getting the hackers to be neutral, i'd suggest either pissing off the bounty hunters by destroying their supply depots over at sheffield station in manchester or the supply depots outside manhattan. Supply depots are your friends =D

or you could just kill a crap load of xenos. when you do that rogues and outcasts like you and because both are allies with lane hackers the hackers will like you too eventually but be warned you have to kill A LOT OF XENOS like im talking over 100 just to get any change... this however not only neutralizes you with the hackers, rogues and outcasts but it improves your rep with everyone else because if you look at the xenos rep on the info screen they are enemies with just about everyone so when you kill the faction that everyone hates, everyone all of a sudden decides that they like you
