it seems tavern missions are still based on global fame. I have only managed to raise fame / rep in SS so far. When I first came back all towns said no missions available due to my LOCAL fame / rep. But now even though I only raised it in SS, all the towns have started to offer basic courier missions. Just thought I would mention it if your intent was for them to be based on local fame/rep only.

I just tried this myself and it seemed to operate just fine.. you're talking about the 'Check the Noticeboard' option?

yeah,

the check notice board in the tavern. I am just saying when I first came back I checked all the towns and none offered any missions with a message saying my local fame/rep was too low.

so far I have only worked on SS faction, a bit in Texan and GW, but I notice all towns are now at least offering me the basic low level courier missions now. It just seemed universal in each town as far as what they are offering is what I am getting at.

But it could be that its my rep going up enough because of the faction thing since all towns will like you a bit if you kill "bad" pirates. I dont have anyone in FL to check there. I just thought Fame was also local too, and those missions were now based on local fame and local rep. (although it could be those basic courier missions only require a little bit of good rep and no fame?)

anyway hope this makes sense, if its working fine then forget what I am saying.. lol.

EDIT : Well checking more carefully today, I notice Elms and Sarsfield offer no missions again. BL, GW, SS, Texan all offer basic courier missions, the low pay mail ones. So it seems its working ok, although I have not done anything in BL at all yet, it may be related to doing a bit in GW and Texan nearby.

Some feedback so far on what I have noticed since Faction intro.

After a handful of attacks on Anarchists and Slavers in SS I found that I was only offered courier missions in the northern regions (GW and North) With a positive rep in SS and GW (recognised) and no missions to offer further south.

Death of an old scout in SS that had travelled most of Evan, and Hero Points from before the faction change in EL and BL were lost.

After 1 attack Merchant Bounty hunters in Texan (those bleedin' profit mongers

for my RP spin) Less courier options seemed available, maybe due to the week coming to an end and others taking up the missions, not sure. My Rep with Civs in SS dropped back to Neutral immediately and was instantly a hero in FL, and recognised. 1 Attack on Slavers in BL and I have more courier and other missions available up north again, still prior to weeks end, and am now Recognised and Unappreciated in FL, still a hero. No change in fame or rep yet in BL or Tex and Global fame is now Recognised for the first time. Courier missions now available in Tex.

Might elaborate on this when I have some more time as its very brief. Hope this helps.

Not sure if it was here but I saw some suggestion about special rewards for winning lots of pro events or leagues with the Death race mafia faction.

I win quite a few of these and am only "appreciated" by the mafia. Other gangs have gotten Honoured...I can only assume mostly through scouting against their enemies.

So in effect you are merely double rewarding scouting.
