How To Get The Evil Cannibals Achievement

[BigBthefluffyredneck]

After pulling a lot of virtual teeth to get this stupid achievement, I think I figured out how to do it.

Now, aside from this achievement being wonky as can be, I think I figured out how to make sure you can get the achievement down pat.

The biggest thing about it is, is that you need to make sure you haven't traded with the Pig Farmers, otherwise the achievement will wonk out. If you ever trade with the Pig Farmers for the first few times, if you read the transaction, it will often mention how weird the "pork" is. Something like the taste, texture, how it looks, etc. This is the key to getting the achievement. Do NOT trade with the Pig Farmers at all if you're going for this achievement until you're ready.

Now, the best way to start with this achievement is to start a new game if you've traded with the Pig Farmers. You need to build a government building and do missions with the Pig Farmers, until a mission pops up where Bucket is really excited about the harvest of the "piggies". The person you send over will be slaughtered. Now, after you've done this, IMMEDIATELY trade with the Pig Farmers, and buy out their food. If done right, this should give you the achievement. After combing through guides and discussions on how people got the achievement, I went through and started troubleshooting the achievement. A lot of people were upset that it seemed glitched, and maybe the problem is the game, like a lot of certain scenarios, can only be done in specific ways and only once. If you don't follow it out to a T, it won't work the way you want it to, and sadly, Evil Cannibals is one of those things. However I finally figured it out. Make sure you follow this mini guide to a T, otherwise it won't work. Best case scenario, start a new game either in story mode with the Pig Farmers, or start a quick game with all 11 factions on the map, and find the Farmers, and do what this guide says so.

Also, you don't have to actually consume the people in your fort out of a hungry desperation, like the achievement implies.

Followed every step absolutely to the T, and still didn't get the achievement.

Did you read any of the links I posted?

You will need the Pig Farmer faction in the map. There will be 2 type of event that you will need to do multiple times :

1. Meet with the pig farmers: This one here is done by meeting and your not allied with them. It will take a few try since this is random. Do sacrifice a survivor you will gain some food.

2. Neighborhood BBQ: That too is random but make sure your not in bad terms with them (below 50% Respect). Also do accept the invitation and you will also gain some food. Evil Cannibals achievement pop up on me with this one.

I looked at the code to help y'all out. The achievement should be given on the first instance of cannibalism where your cannibalism points become more than 3 and the map is "done loading" (which as far as I can tell, is just to prevent the achievement from firing when it isn't valid to get an achievement).
All acts of cannibalism will increase your cannibalism points by 1, 2, or 3. The only thing that should ever decrease your cannibalism points is that they should *decrease by 0.1 on the passage of each day*.

It doesn't matter if you followed the steps, you're waiting to get your cannibalism points to more than 3 without it fading back down. That means repeating the steps until you get there.

If you are not beyond using debug mode, you can get evil canibals quite easy
-Map with pig farmers
-debug menu
-run event "pigBBQ"
-accept
-repeat until you get it

All of this was in the links posted.

Just got this achievement, so heres what i did:

Story map Trail: I full cleared/claimed the map so no more zombie interference, but did not ally with pig farmers. Follow that by continually doing the pig farmer quests, I also nuked my food so that i was eating whoever died of starvation. Set a save right before you destroy all your food.

When you run out of survivors, reload the save and repeat the pig farmer quests where you lose a guy and starving your people ( shouldnt hurt the achieve count, as it took me 5 run throughs of 4-6 sent to pig farmers and eating about 40 corpses)

Hope this helps

I know this is an old post, but I've looked at a ton of posts and have seen people ask this question recently but it's so far down the google list that I'm replying here. There were so many guesses of how to do it that this thread had me going in circles trying everything. I did finally manage to get it by going to the pig farmers every four days and talking to him to get his quests over and over. I kept turning down all the others until they asked for someone to come help them with work and wouldn't be coming back. I pretty much had to send approximately 20 people over to them and finally it triggered the achievement just sacrificing your people to the pig farmers. No need to starve your people and eat them yourself for 10 food each time. just do a quick play tiny map on easy or whatever until you get the pigfarmers then spam end turn for three days, check the pigfarmer quest and repeat. it was hella tedious, but I finally have my 100% completion.

I read your post after I tried the above guide, just now got the achievement. Thanks!

Followed this and got it first try :)

Only thing of note is that I needed to trade 3 or 4 times after meeting with the pig farmers and sending over a person (buying 200-300 food total).
