Rep system still broken, punished for completing rank missions

So I grinded hard to get my federation rep into the positive. I completed a naval rank progression mission that involved killing pirates. I scanned every pirate with a KWS, they were all wanted. Killed them, collected bounties, completed the objective, turned it in. Only now the federation is hostile towards me. Why are we punished for completing these missions? How can I hold the rank of Warrant Officer with a group that is hostile towards me?
 
If the pirates you were killing were federation factioned then you'll lose rep with the federation, check their faction before you engage.
 
Yep. These federation missions are killing me. I've spent hours looking for the items required. Re-roled twice thinking I was spawned in the crap end of space.

It was claimed in one of the gamma patch notes that killing wanted NPC's is no longer supposed to affect faction rep.
 
Sounds like that's not actually the case, I'm friendly with empire and never attack green, never had rep loss.

Aye, same for me and the alliance. I never attack green ships even if wanted ones. ;)

Still the whole rep system is in an early stage of development and needs to be tuned.
 
Aye but still check factions before engaging. The whole rep system is still evolving.



That is irrelevant. The developers claimed that killing wanted ships no longer affected rep with their faction. My point is also that you should not be punished for completing these missions, especially when they make you search a specific system.

Even a few wanted ones belonging to your faction aswell can be everywhere. Even in the suggested system to take care of your mission.
 
KWS is only used to be able to claim bountys set on pirates by factions outside the current system. It is entirely possible to have a clean pilot in a fed system with a bounty on it by lets say the empire for example.

Meaning even though he has a bounty on his head, it could still be considered a crime by the feds to attack said pilot which may have affected your rep

Not sure if this happened in your case, but still good to know about the KWS
 
Hey, that's great news, but still off topic.

We are here to discuss. Aren't we ? Relating to your supposed off-topic .

A little advise i can give you on your way before i quit out of this thread. Take screenshots or do a video to ticket it in and include your hardware survey.
So much for off-topic .

I'm out. Never surrender !

I'm trying to raise a legitimate issue with the rep system and you're just implying I'm playing the game wrong...

In spite of me explaining that the gamma patch notes specifically stated your rep would not be affected by killing wanted ships of the same faction.

If you think it's an issue then raise a ticket, personally i think it makes it more realistic.

Pick your targets carefully, this ain't halo.


Please refer to previous Gamma patch notes.
