player notoriety

[Oedipus's Stepdad]

I got killed doing my first illegal mission and got sent to prison, and now I can't even pay off my bounty at the interstellar factor. I don't even know how to check my notoriety, but the I read online that you have to wait it off IN GAME? Do i just have to keep my game running for 10 hours now? This game really punishes you hard for trying things you've never tried before

I killed a few upstanding citizens and got no notoriety. Your crimes must have been more severe :)

Maybe try some legal raids fisrt

[frumple]

No, the time will pass when you close the game.

You will have to live with the notoriety if you wish to continue playing.

And right when servers are down to. This game just LOVES f8cking with me

I have. Game made ZERO mention of the consequences if I pick the purple option.

Yeah, assassinate 1 clean dude for a good reward like suit schematics on manufacturing instructions is one thing, but a whole raid is rarely worth it.

Purple mission literally has a text ILLEGAL on it, though.

Lol oh it's not just with you, sometimes I wonder who TF took the time to make this game so twisted. Every little bit of it is made to make you pull your hair out

The cool down for this is overly severe. A long time ago I ran into this and was like, WTH? It is just another mechanic that the devs and some of the community thinks is awesome and don't understand how something like this could possibly be a turn off for incoming, new players.

I know how it is working now. If your notoriety is > 0 then you need to wait playing the game or doing some legal missions.
Otherwise, you can take a taxi and go where you are wanted then surrender and pay your bounty.
Be careful however, if you have ships with legal problems they will be seized and you will have to pay the rebuy price to use them again !

So if you do illegal activities ON FOOT and die, you just get arrested but don't have to pay for the ship as well?

This isn't the big deal folks are making it out to be.

Notoriety caps at 10, you can see your level on the left screen, home tab, near the bottom.

Each level takes 2 in game hours to fall off. While notorious you can. Not clear your fines and bounties at an ISF.

You can turn yourself in and pay the fee, that will not remove your notoriety.

While notorious you are still only wanted by the faction you offended. You can live normally in other parts of human space.

Feds mad at you? Hang with the alliance.

Your power contact doesn't care if you are notorious, you can still turn in bounties.

The on foot mission givers in the concourse will still offer missions and haggle.

Its a minor inconvenience after you murder people. If you don't want to have crime penalties, don't do crime.

You will have to pay a fine for your ship i think if the one you used has legal problem. But not the rebuy price like if it was seized. (for my experience)
You still have to pay the bounty you have just before dylng where you died.
I'm not 100% sure but you can try stuffs with a cheap ship so you will not lose a lot.
