Becoming Pirate (noob)

I bought this game in the hopes that it would be the closest thing to Privateer. Im talking Privateer 1, not that steaming piece of monkey crap "The Darkening". So far it is GREAT. I did all the intro mission to get to level 4 or what not, and now I want to take a walk on the dark side. What is the fastest way to become Pirate/Smuggler once you get all the jump points? Is there a way to somewhat befriend Pirates?

you can't, until the storyline is through. OR you could download chip's open sp mod. that way, you can do whatever you want right from the get go.
to become a pirate, just tear up a couple of transport convoys or shoot up the cops. do it enough, and the pirate factions start becoming friendly.

Front, bow! Back, stern! Better get it right squirt, cuz' if ya don't I'll throw yer a$$ out the little round window in the side!

Well, you can actually. But it would take you a fair amount of time and when you take on the next mission, all the faction reps are changed back to what they should be storywise.
That's a waste of time and you should wait until you finished the SP campain.
Or you can go online and become a pirate. You'd still have to work for it though.

Anyway, good luck and welcome to the forums

Ok, where in the world do you see a spoiler here? And please reply to this because nobody ever replies.

Post Sun Dec 28, 2003 3:38 am

I gues it's because I hinted about the work you do for a particular Kusari group in the SP campaign. --- VH16

Spoilers, oh how I loathe the term and those who use it

E, try releasing the shift button. All caps are considered the forum equivalent of yelling and are rude and annoying.

Post Wed Jan 14, 2004 3:04 am

OK, its a capslock abnormality i've got.

But its fixed now..................................

Post Wed Jan 14, 2004 7:51 am

if u wanna be a pirate, u might want to start by working for the Junkers...a lot of interesting things can come from this....

I don't consider this a spoiler cos if u haven't found the Junker base in Manhattan within, say 20 minutes of play u should start the game again

Post Wed Jan 14, 2004 12:08 pm

Hey, it took me a while to find the base in...New York, not Manhattan.

Post Thu Jan 15, 2004 7:40 am

lol yeah yr right.... sorry

I just followed the first Junker I saw, took me straight to it...then again, it took me ages to find Buffalo.....

Post Thu Jan 15, 2004 7:51 am
