The Women, They Love Me... And It's Becoming A Serious Problem...

[mk_thot]

Okay, not me specifically, but my main character. Everything was fine until I took out the biggest looter camp on the map (playing sandbox), all of a sudden my MC's approval/respect with all the other people in my group became maxed out, initially I flirted with two of the women in my group (for the achievement) but now every single woman in my camp ends up with the "in love with" relationship with my MC, even when I turn them down in the "What's up?" dialogue. Even women who weren't part of my group when I took down the camp are getting the "in love with" relationship status, despite my best efforts to ignore them.

The problem is now all the women in my group have become insanely jealous of each other with multiple fights breaking out every few minutes. I don't know what to do, and I don't know how to get rid of the "in love with" status. I'm basically fighting two wars now, one with the FEMA raiders, and one with trying to keep the women in my camp from killing each other as group morale tanks with each brawl. I went from having people with 100 morale to -100 in about two seasons because of all the in fighting over my MC.

Yeah, it's like you're the 5th Beatle .... LOL. Screaming girls all over you. That's why I play an 80 year old grumpy dude that eats human meat and forces them work harder ... ok sometimes to just balance their affection (if any).

Have you ever had a community that really hated your MC?
Do you remember all the bad stuff you did to make them lose respect/approval?

Well, they are all throwing a VICTORY parade for you, wanting you to be the father of their child .... LOL

So, maybe it's time to do the naughty things that lower respect/approval?
Don't you think?

EDIT ... If you're in SANDBOX, you could "Hit the Road" but make sure to tell them all to GO, leave the community .... throw them out.

FEMA quest is a tough ending, let the girls get killed, maybe?

This game doesn't want you to have a community (with all roses).
One crisis after another.

Best games ever = MC + 5 straight fighting dudes.
I do everything, they just GUARD all day.
Name of community ...... MACV-SOG (google it)

Well, usually I end up recruiting a bunch of raiders, so they hate me because I killed their friends/family/loved ones and then put them to work. But I did that this game too, and they don't seem to care about that anymore...

Nothing I really do seems to lower their respect or approval more than 10 points, I've even rebuffed a few by telling them they were ugly and acting like I didn't know their names, but by the next day their approval was back to max. Some of new members don't even have high approval, just maxed respect when they fall in love. And I can't get respect down, because every time I kill a FEMA raiding party they all get +100 respect for him for "killing a looter." Apparently, he can do no wrong at this point...

I ended up getting my first green pass and just bailing on the whole community. The only reason I started it was because I was going to send my part members to the camp and have my MC use the "hit the road" option to go to a new location, but after I started it, I read that the game auto ends when you use the pass, so I gave just gave up on that.

Why contain it? let them kill each other. Take off their armors, give them a katana and have one them get killed, Whoever wins, accuse them of being infected then execute them.

Because then I would end up losing around two thirds of my population, possibly more, since the "love bug" keeps spreading to new recruits as well.

I don't think there is a vanilla short term solution.

Divide them into "Friend Groups".
Build or take over another base and separate them.
That above is more work.

Overall, it's a lesson learned.

Below is a screen shot when I had 32 comm members (2 or 3 men posted near the main camp) in my harem and I wanted to hit the road with only a few of them. It was really a test. The screen shot was taken a moment after I kicked one of them out, it was a chain reaction departure of 28 angry women, all grouped together ... LOL
