How to IMPROVE relationships with the pirates and retros? I see them being -100 all the time and doing pirate rescuing missions etc. don't seem to have any kind of effect to my relationship with the pirates. Relationships with the confed and kilrathi seem to go up in time and all I have to do is wait. Doesn't quite make sense that they'll just forget all that I've done, like killed their comrades? Some serious favors should have to be done to re-gain their respect. But on the other hand, no matter how many jobs I do for pirates, they'll stat -100 hostile at me.
 
well the game remembers all the bad things you did to a faction beyond -100 ... so your rating could be unbounded in the negative direction
your best hope is to start improving it by killing people the pirates hate...
like merchants...but it could take a long time to get it back

it's best to start a new game where pirates don't hate you as much
 
I noticed some relations are sorta awkward. I can go OK with 100 relation with Kilrathi for shooting pirates, but not with 100 for Retros. Aren't Retros supposed to be a constant danger, no matter what?
 
we could make retros a special case---they do seem to hate me a lot no matter what I do--and you can only say bad stuff to 'em
 
ya, kilrathi shouldn't hate pirates... afterall they're doing them a favor by disrupting confed economy :) i think that they should shoot at each other, BUT what you do with one shouldn't affect your relation with the other.

retros... dunno, make it that whatever you say to them your relations go like -99999 so it's a moot point? i would think EVERYONE hates those guys... cept for the kilrathi who would be "sorta neutral" as described above. Kilrathis would see pirates/retro as something to tolerate because it gives a small benefit, they're still hated humans, but maybe there's some sort of "engage if you meet them but don't pursue" policy.

maybe cap relations you can have with kilrathi as neutral... they are a very closed society afterall and couldn't ever truly welcome a human. Best you should get is some sort of mutual ignorance.
