X3 AP Boron Pissed still

[riddler251]

Ok, first off I have the rank of Royal Guard. I did the bankrupt assassin start so Boron started very mad. I have found out how to over come the laser towers being mad at me. Just kill them, take the rep loss, and then hack the station. That seems to work fine.

My issue is how to deal with the ships that will not un-enemy me. I have like 3 Boron Large Ships that want me bad. I have tried to com the captain of the M6, but I just get the message "This Captain does not want to talk to you." I get this every time, and have tried at least 20 times. Some of the larger ships will not even open coms with me. I enter a sector that is completely by friend and boom I am getting attacked by a freaking M2!

Mind you these are like the Boron first response ships and Military ships. If I try and destroy them... Well, that just isn't happening.

[Calufrax]

Hmmm... that is a tricky situation.

In situations like that, I try my best to find at least one captain in the response team that will talk to me, and then apologize for the misfire. In my experience, getting one to accept your apology, sometimes has the effect of having a group of ships lose their hostility towards you.

If there are absolutely no captains that will talk to you, then I'm afraid there's nothing you can do, short of luring them into a Xenon sector, and having them do your dirty work for you.

look at his ship info, he is probably homebased to a bigger ship which you need to comm in order to make him friendly.

a trick that works on pirates is to send a ship to get close to them while you are OOS, it turns a lot of them to blue, it might work for you as well

(it also works for towers...most of the time)

I actually found if you let them blow up a ship of yours, they will often turn blue. (Drop an advanced satelite in range, and let them kill it.) At least it worked for me after I boarded a Hyperion. They killed the advanced sat, and were fine after that.

Surely the old missile trick is what you want here, no ?

I just had the same thing in Weavers after making the Yaki friends, the M1 and escorts wouldn’t make friends, so sent in my M7M, launched a few barrages, jumped it out before the missiles hit home, no rep loss, no more problems.

[Terrachova]

I had this issue for a while too, though it was even worse.

I got station-camped by a damned Kraken while in my Mamba. Seriously, it reminded me of Eve all over again. It was close enough that whenever I undocked, the missiles would kill me before my jump drive could charge up enough. And, while I'm good at shooting down missiles, that thing liked to barrage me with flails. I can deal with dozen missiles... but a hundred, where five would be enough to do me in? Yeah...

Can't remember what I did... I think I managed to use the station as a shield. I had to destroy that Kraken later though, only way to get it to go 'blue'.

[riddler251]

I got them to turn blue, but I am not sure how.

I know that one of the defense lasers turned blue to me, after a patrol mission and some xenon were attacked by it. A few patrol missions latter and I had the 6 escorts in those sectors destroyed. As to the other defense lasers, and especially the M6+ class ships, I do not know. I did a lot of escort/patrol missions in these sectors so perhaps they just needed some distraction...

[highflier]

try to comm other ships in the sector apologizing. it helps sometimes.
also, get a police license of that race.
i started as a poisoned paranid and blasted alot of them to dust. when i brought in the money, my rep got resetted to neutral but still some stations and lasertowers where red.
but when i came near them with a police license, most went blue right away...
