    This is easily done through the use of the in-game admin panel, which can be opened by pressing cn_RB+cn_Y simultaneously, so long as you are the host of the game or have been promoted to admin of the game you are in.

    For this achievement, you will want start a game in a Star System world. Once you have spawned in, open the admin panel and toggle the "enable creative mode tools" option on. Then, click the drop down menu to select the "Economy" tab, and in the middle of the screen you will see the option to change the reputation of a player. Set the player name to your own and below that select any of the NPC factions listed, then change the amount of reputation given to 1500 (the max) and click "change" to update your new reputation. Repeat the process two more times with different factions in order to pop the achievement. If you are playing with friends, you can also pop the achievement for them as well using the same method, except for by of course selecting their gamertag instead of your own.

    KawiNinjaRider7@FloodABYZ Do you have creative mode tools on? That should allow you to see every faction in your game.

    FloodABYZI turned them on but for some reason it still shows only 2 factions I'll mess about with it later to see if it pops up

    KawiNinjaRider7Hmm I wonder if it depends on what world type you're playing on? I just tested it by starting a new Star System world on survival, and as soon as I spawned in I enabled creative mode tools and went to the economy tab and all factions were available to me. Maybe try creating a Star System world if you hadn't in your previous attempt? Its possible other world types may limit you to the factions available.

    KawiNinjaRider7If all else fails and you still can't get it sorted out shoot me a PM either on here or Xbox and I can invite you to my game and pop the achievement for you. While playing with a friend a week or so back I was able to adjust his reputation and pop the achievement for him lol

    FloodABYZFinally got it to work on star system survival dance like a billion factions popped up laugh thanks for the help! Might be worth adding the star system survival part to the solution

    KawiNinjaRider7Awesome! Will definitely edit that into the solution then

    TygerThis worked for me on PC, too. Thanks for the guide!

    Sylis3DThis worked flawlessly! Thank you! Could this method be applied to declare war on a faction as well? That's one of the few achievements I can't seem to get to pop even when I press "declare war" under a faction.
