Pirate Systems
 

In the mission write up for the "Do three pirate merc guide missions" it says once you complete them you should be able to travel through pirate systems without being attack on sight.

Now I have done the three missions (alot more than three actually) and completed the mission but I still get attacked by every pirate ship as soon as I enter a pirate system.

Am I missing something?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">It is wording solely for story-telling effect. Your starting race [Terran] fixes your enemies from the start. The Pirates will always shoot at you, no matter how many Pirate Guild missions you perform.

Another hole in the software and the story writeup. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Yup, it's quite stupid. Just as stupid as Amonkrie still being hostile after you saved their asses from the Sithrak.

Not that it really matters. As soon as you've got any battleship or carrier, Amonkrie, Fazrah and pirates can't touch you anymore, since they only have cruisers.

Not that this can't be fixed, but yeah in the stock game its a bit weird..

Thanks people, I was starting to go nuts trying to figure out what I was doing wrong.

The project wants 3 mercenary missions, not commerce.
Found that out the hard way.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

It just says "Perform 3 Pirate Guild missions.".

Should be "Perform 3 Pirate Mercenary Guild missions."
