hey, i just got freelancer today and i luv the game, i was just wondering how to become a pirate? Do you just destroy like ships on yur team and stuff?
Oy, somehting tells me people will scream at you to use the search function :p
Well, you can't do it in the beggining of single player, because the faction reps reset every new mission. Once you finish that though, you're on you own, and you can very easily become a pirate by killing Corporation ships, Police, and especially Bounty Hunters.

Give the n00b a break, no one uses the search forums button anyway.
If you want to become a pirate, you basicly need to become enemy with traders and cops while friendly with other pirates so that so have some where to dock. This can be extremely dangerous if your a) a crap pilot or b) the cops have better ships since you need to kill cops to become friendly with rogues. All I can recommend is getting a kusari or bretonia fighter then killing all of the liberty police until the outcasts and/or rogues are friendly/neutral so that you can join them.

The definitive guide to pirating.

You have to accept Juni's first mission, so its hard for the rouges to like you. So work for a corpartion (eg Interspace). until you are ready to go to Bretonia. The liberty rouges arnt in bretonia, but the Mollys and Gaians are. To find a pirate base, use the patrol path option in the nav map. Follow the patrols in to open space, and look for places where they converge.

Easy. You should start on Manhattan. Look at the nav map. At the bottom of the map are two jump gates. (ok so u cant see them now, but there there). I think the jump gates are texas and colarado. head to 1 jump gate, then cruise across open space to the other. About half way between them is a liberty Rouge base, Buffalo Base

Easy. You should start on Manhattan. Look at the nav map. At the bottom of the map are two jump gates. (ok so u cant see them now, but there there). I think the jump gates are texas and colarado. head to 1 jump gate, then cruise across open space to the other. About half way between them is a liberty Rouge base, Buffalo Base

After the whole SP thing, try killing some GMG. That way, the Outcasts will warm up to you and Rheinland won't care either way (actually, they'll like you a bit more). That way, you can maintain ties to the houses yet you have access to the Outcasts diverse and extensive network of allies and low lifes. --- VH16
