' Wrote:So does the Xenos:)(no idea why they're neutral with the zoners...)
Technically, the Xenos are one of only a handful of factions the Zoners actually give a damn about. Kill enough Xenos, and you can actually get the Zoners pissed at you. The Xenos are very hard to affect by killing their guys, though, so those that have sympathy ratings for them don't really get affected. It'd take maybe 1000 Xeno kills, or more, to get the Zoners hostile. It's been awhile for me, though, so I don't have a more specific or confident answer.
EDIT: But, yeah. No idea. Everybody should hate the Xenos. ^^

Technically, a decent number of Liberty corporations don't care about the Xenos- they really only screw with Ageira.
Okay... hm... Samura, Kishiro, DSE, BoWEx, Republican, Ageira, IC, Universal, Cryer, ALG... that's it. Those are all the corporations that the Xenos seem to have bad relations with or otherwise KOS their ships. Daumann, BMM, Synth Foods, Kruger, Planetform, and Gateway are the corporations that are purely neutral or actually like the Xenos. Though, really, it's only Synth Foods that like the Xenos, and no idea why. +0.05 faction rating with the X-boys.
With Criminals, the Corsairs... are basically the only guys who don't give a damn about Xenos, as the Corsairs never actually touch Liberty space themselves. The Outcasts are the only Hispanians with a direct presence in Liberty.
Anyway, BHG don't like them, of course, and the GMG and IMG don't even know they exist. The Zoners characteristically like the Xenos the most of any group (0.15).
And, for some really bizzare reason, the only government agencies that give a damn about Xenos are the Liberty authorities. Bretonia, Kusari, and Rheinland apparently don't care about your efforts to help their merchants actually make it in Liberty by fighting the Xenos THAT THEY APPARENTLY PRESSURE LIBERTY TO HANDLE! This still doesn't make any sense.
Honestly, some of this stuff, somebody would have to explain to me, why they're not on the Xenos' hate list, even if they're not in direct conflict with the Xenos. It's the Corsairs who give Artifacts to the Junkers. They should hate them for giving the Junkers this weird crap. Indirect factional disparity. Bretonia, Kusari, and Rheinland should also have this- they should have the same faction rating towards the Xenos that Liberty does, because the explanation for why Liberty hates them so much more than any other 'criminal' faction is that Liberty has been pressured by the other houses to actually do something about these terrorists preying on their shipping. Samura would MAKE Kusari give a damn about it. Seriously! Bretonia should give a damn if BoWEx and OS&C do, and Rheinland should respect ALG and Republican's plight in dealing with Xenos through Texas and such.
EDIT: and you KNOW that, despite not being in reach to do anything to them, the Xenos absolutely hate foreigners in general. They hate Rheinlanders, they hate Kusari, and they probably don't think too highly of the Bretonians, either. So, despite not being in reach, their rating towards those groups should be seriously negative. Same for any other foreign organization, just purely out of principle. The only reason there are neutrals to the Xenos is beccause those groups don't actually operate in the same areas as the Xenos do, so there's no reason at least in that respect to have anything but pure neutral with those groups. Unfortunately, this is just not fitting with the Xenos and their ideals, and was likely a detail overlooked to save time and meet the deadline. Thus, we should take up the mantle and make sure these factions actually hate eachother, despite not being in reach of eachother.
Xenos are the Space Rednecks. They look down on foreigners, they love their guns, and they're willing and very much interested in using those guns to shoot up said foreigners. They also hang out in the 'hinterlands' of Colorado and Texas. All they need is to talk like 'ignant' hillpeople and it's all set.
EDIT: Belated. Of course, I consistently rant about the original way the Xenos were. I'd have to look at the stats for the Xenos in Discovery. And the Infocards need to be updated.
