How to become a pirate???

I tried dying 3 times, letting the bad guy from mission get away 3 times, running away 3 times, aborting 3 times, It never gets me to pirate option....does the mission have to be a story mission?

Whilst you're doing the story, you have a very limited choice of what career paths to follow. Once you finish the story, you'll get more freedom to choose who you want to work for. When that happens, you can go be a pirate.

To be a pirate, shoot stuff.

Maybe you can bribe somebody to hack your record and make you a pirate.

fastest way is to do what n00bs usually do when starting a gam that involves launching projectiles at an pobject with the intention to end the life or existence of said object and star a new game and shoot everything in sight just outside Manhattan with OpenSP on

the other way is get a lib dread and shoot everything in sight

Untill you finish the storyline completely, there's no point in becoming good with pirates.
After the storyline, (you'll notice. You'll be dropped back on Manhattan again and don't get shot at by the Liberty Police etc.) You just have to shoot everything that's green. Police, Navy and corporations are the targets of choice. Bounty hunters are enemy of all pirates, so they are good targets aswell.
Best is to either kill some transports or destroy some depots. Switch to "loot" in you scanner hud, lower left part and then click the little box-icon, it will show you the depots, if they are around.
After you get a neutral reputation, try doing some missions for teh pirates.
A bribe is always handy, but if you rep is realy bad, it'll cost you around 100k credits.

Good luck

1: Shoot at everything except pirates
2: get a VHF
3: make a living off of killing people and taking their loot

easy enough?

Post Mon Nov 29, 2004 3:31 am

its quite simple, just finish the SP missions, or even go onto MP (internet connection required).
then you just kill everything with, navy,police,armed forces,military, etc in its name.
that should work for you... :-)

2 words of advice: kill everything
