Fame



The Fame system is a measurement of the public renown of John Marston, and how well he is generally known. Fame is measured as high or low.

The player can actively raise their Fame rating by completing tasks, missions and activities. Fame will affect how NPCs interact with the player.

The effect of Fame is relative to the Marston's Honor rating.

If the player has the golden guns pre-order bonus, using the guns will make your fame rise at a higher rate.

Fame Titles and Perks
Legend: Bounty values for all the crimes you commit are halved.

Gunslinger: You will never go wanted for stealing or hijacking a horse

Mercenary: Increase time between law pursuits from 24 hours to 48 hours.

Buckaroo: Cost to bribe lawmen is reduced 25%

Greenhorn: People start asking you for help (more ambient challenges become available)

Gaining Fame Tip
An easy way to attain fame is by having the elegant suit, getting caught cheating at poker then disarming your opponent in a duel. generally anything that gives you the option to kill an enemy or spare their life will give you double the amount of fame if you spare them. activities such as bounty hunting are a prime example. Disarming the person awards +100 Fame, while killing them only nets +50. So go for the disarm for more fame.

Achievement
Fame is associated with a gameplay achievement:
 * Man of Honor / Chivalry’s Dead: Attain highest Fame rank and either highest Honor rank or lowest Honor rank.
