[@LordZell] If you want to be a bad guy, then maybe we can talk about it. I can imagine a mechanic where if you act as one of the terrorist cells, you could go and do missions, and how well you do will affect your resources too. 

If you want to escape the carefully laid out system of politics (hahaha joke of teh century) then no, I don't think you can be a raider who has endless resources and no affection. Maybe if you had some limits then yes.

It would spicen up the game for sure.
