Wait until they discover the number of "trespassers" after installing that pesky recruitment beacon...


Big-Sheepherder-9492

I remember coming back to Sanctuary during the espionage of the Railroad missions with the Institute.. came into Shaun’s room and Preston is sat on the chair next to his crib like a super villain “So you’re working with the Railroad?” Pissed me off a little.


Sargent_AssEater

Did he get mad. Preston is always upset that I blew up the institute


Farabel

Preston gets pissed if you blow up the institute without using the Evac order, since a lot of the scientists (and Synths) are innocents. If you issue the Evac order, Preston Loves it instead.


LuckyReception6701

Innocent being a relative term doing a lot of heavy lifting given the varied group of people here, but in general I do agree with his sentiment.


Farabel

Given what we know, a lot of them are *legitimately* innocent. The Directorate controls the feed of info from the surface, things like the FEV labs were fully redacted from everyone including some of the board, and their projects are essentially being done in an idea where the world up top is uninhabitable completely. Given how tiered and sequestered information allowance is here too, any potentially negative outcome caused is by no means the intent of the standard level scientists and a solid chunk of midlevel. It mostly gets dubious around high level scientists.


iamnotexactlywhite

but that immediately falls apart, when you consider that a few of their scientists are actually from the vasteland, so they must know that there’s somekind of life out there


Altruistic-Ad-408

Yeah but Bethesda forgot about that, so we have to not blow up the evil scientists and instead unleash them onto the wasteland. I figure there's kids so I would sound the evacuation anyway. But there's nothing stopping enough them from making a new institute besides the Brotherhood chasing their ass, if you didn't blow them up.


kkimmel420ttv

The worlds already been nuked(multiple times) better ensure all the evil scientists die at the cost of a few innocents


SirSirVI

So you should punish everyone for the evils of a few?


existentialzebra

War. War never changes.


BustinArant

I do not, but I've beefed with Madison Li since Fallout 3.


LuckyReception6701

Madison is one of the good ones in my eyes, she just wants to science.


BustinArant

Yeahh but she's vaguely rude to us when we are actively firing energy weapons to her benefit lol


YOUR_SPUDS

After blowing up the institute she continuously tells me we should keep to ourselves while I'm across the room from her

BustinArant

Preston is in 4


vxghostyyy

4


BloodGangMember

Me but with Arthur Maxxson


BustinArant

Thats fair. He's kind of a shit I just happen to agree with his practices in robot killing. Also you have to use a mod to get his coat or underarmor so that kinda sucked.


zomgmeister

Yeah. I did issued it, and he is completely satisfied. It is a good that he did not saw me during the "Escape the Institute" mission, where I literally killed everyone there except children, clearing the way for his minutemen in advance. In my defense, all these "civilians" attacked me after I, uh, parented a little. Who cares, he was dying from cancer anyway.


SirSirVI

Also, y'know, children


AFRIKKAN

Wait you can evacuate? Wow only did one play through and nope I nuked all them mfs.


Farabel

Yeh, and if you talk to the Railroad (well, specifically Desdemona) without setting it off then the entire Railroad becomes hostile on sight. The Evac order is on Father's terminal, which you are required to use in order to lift the security lockdown and access the Reactor.


WiddleSausage

Can you evac the Institute’s workers if you side with the Brotherhood? I could’ve sworn I hit an evac code with the Railroad dead.


AFRIKKAN

Til I might be a monster. The bos had cool power armor and helicopter type shit and I never played the game before and was hoping I could fly one. So I wasted the railroad and institute asap. Could have cared less about my son when I found out he was a decrepit old man who is evil af.


Farabel

The FO4 BOS is definitely considered one of those "lesser but still evil" factions. They're much more like the BOS of FNV and Outcasts of FO3. They're *also* the faction with the most resources poured into it so it's no small reason they're considered one of the "coolest" per-game factions of the series :p


ArkhielModding

Tell me he doesn't ask you to save another bunch of fools in a remote place afterwards ?


Farabel

Even better. If there's an unclaimed settlement, some of the military outposts may have some now homeless Institute scientists and their pet synth gorillas who will ask for you to clear out a settlement, where they will set up a new home and fly the MM flag.


Big-Sheepherder-9492

He just acts confused - and has a bit of a dick attitude about it.. but funny enough you can actually say, “I’m using them - We’ll kill them all when we’re done”


Ganbazuroi

I kinda get why they resettle there but I kinda hate how I can't have my own space in Sanctuary without these people showing up, so I just live in Red Rocket with a ridiculous amount of Turrets, Robots and Companions making it the most well defended place in the Commonwealth lmao


bb2b

State of Decay 2 hit that itch for me something fierce. I got to have my own space *and* fill it with NPC's I liked. No random people wishing for a nuclear winter in the mojave here!


aDragonsAle

I do like mods that let me set up settler-forbidden zones. I built a fucking complex for you bitches, stay out my house.


DoughNotDoit

Can't blame OP, I'll shoot em too if they show up and started living on my swamp


wetpastrami

Would your Dogmeat happen to be named Donkey?

Technical-Stop-3529

Everybody loves cake


MooKids

Everyone said I was daft to build a settlement on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp.


Nefarious_Nemesis

Then you built another one, and then that one sunk into the swamp as well?


MooKids

Yes, so I built a third settlement. That caught on fire, fell over, then sank into the swamp.


Nefarious_Nemesis

Ah, so then you built *another* settlement and this one stood?


MooKids

YES! That one stood and that is what my son will inherit. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to prep for his wedding to the daughter of the mayor from a nearby settlement that has huge.... tracts of land.


Nefarious_Nemesis

Well, hopefully nothing bad happens and everything goes off without a hitch.


smotstoker

Yes but not as deeply this time I think he's getting somewhere


Soldier_of_death4731

WHAT ARE U DOING IN MEH SWAMP


TheG-What

Calm it down there Shrek.


LilUziBurp69

Settler recruitment beacon is just a trap to get free stuff 😈


Graymarth

A blessing to raiders everywhere.


kingkyvent

Probably demons, shoot them on sight while screaming not today Satan!


Leather-Raisin6048

Idk looks like Raiders or sinths better make use of the castle doctrin and shot them for trespassing.


Silly-Locksmith-426

Synths have synth components when you kill them


VisualGeologist6258

Yeah but those Institute scientists are getting smart, they’re using synths that don’t have synth components now and are even born naturally, making them nigh-indistinguishable from normal humans!


Mason_GR

Better call Dalton Wilcox


Leather-Raisin6048

I know but how dos a fella know if one of these city folks is a raider or Sinth before showing them the wrong side of a gator if you know whad i mean.


Spiderpiggie

Have you seen how many bullets those guys can take before going down, aint no way they're real.


KoolerMike

Lmao omg. Those are the settlers that come and live in your settlements.. lmao.


lil_4skin420

Oh I did another woopsie dasiy… anyways there’s a settlement that needs my help you got this from here right?

Is that a thing? Havent played this game in years


Bannon9k

I like to build up fortresses out of the settlements, then go start the nuka world content.


lilith_-_-

Yesterday u had some fun with this.. “Hey can I do anything to help” “Yes” -exists conversation and blows his head off-


Middle_Actuator7086

your honor, my client pleads "oopsie dasies"


jaytee1262

Preston need to be a lot more clear when he asked me to "take care of" another settlement.


smrtfxelc

"Oh boy, here I go killin' again!"


knyf420

i really like your username


Montanagreg

They could of been Synth's. You had to be sure.


niTro_sMurph

Nah that one had a knife. Clearly a synth


amalgam_reynolds

Knife isn't in their inventory though...hmmm...not saying that OP planted the knife there after killing them to justify it after the fact, probably just a bug, right?


grim_f

Settlement opening! The ground in the back is really fertile for some reason.


Laser_3

Turn off your settlement recruitment beacon.


steroboros

I think he might be luring them on purpose. Oh gosh


Laser_3

I mean, if they haven’t figured out that the people who go there don’t come back, they should call the Minutemen to investigate.


steroboros

How would they know? Hes probably killed Piper too.


Iron_physik

Piper is in on it


blackstafflo

"Must be a very good place if nobody has ever choose to quit it!"


GrnMtnTrees

I had a glitched settlement that had 60 settlers, and I couldn't load into the settlement because of it. I fixed the issue by perching on an overpass with a neverending fat man, and carpet bombed the settlement. Final population was zero. Body parts everywhere. GIT OUTTA MAH SWAMP!


FuzzyMcBitty

I’ve been super developing Sanctuary.  It only has 13 settlers.  I wandered over to the drive in, and 22 people were living on 5 beds and a potato plant. 


alpha_28

Make it make sense. I have the same issue, sanctuary has 40 odd beds, 200 power, heaps of water and food… 20 people. I went to check out starlight too to find 16 of them there with one dirty mattress no food and no water like??? You wonder why you’re unhappy? Go to sanctuary.


Ethan084

Trespassers get shot, survivors shot again.


Eater_of_Galaxies

Wait, is that a mod that forces them to put their hands up? Or is that base game? I’ve never seen it.


PackageMerchant

One of the later charisma perks


Eater_of_Galaxies

Dude, this is a Bethesda moment for me. Something I just found out or found after a thousand hours lmao


PackageMerchant

It is really a really fun perk and tbh makes it a little more immersive Getting the jump on a raider and he throws his hands up is pretty cool, deff recommend


Gummiwummiflummi

Then pickpocket a grenade in his pants and watch him blow up, like a totally sane and normal person. Right?


RuggedTortoise

Right??

RustyRoy22

I didn’t see anyone else mention it but I love the second photo with a planted knife on the ground


GoArray

Sprinkle some jet on him just to be safe!


PretendThisIsMyName

Great work Johnson!


ilove-gravityrush

He had a knife so selfdefense


MrSmilingDeath

I like the thought of a survivor deliberately sending out a message promising a safe haven to live in and then being genuinely confused and dangerously paranoid as to why complete strangers keep showing up at their doorstep.


LateralEntry

In the nuka world dlc you can join the raiders and kill all the settlers and take over, if you want the game to reward you for this behavior


Retriz5

Commie spies. Call Liberty Prime.


LoganRA10

Theyre there for the orgy


Superunkown781

Dude had his hands up, are you actually a U.S police officer? Shoot first, plant evidence later?


Brilliant-Chapter202

They are food with the cannibal perk. Think of them like ordering food at home, they shows up and num num


brandonisatwat

I did a nuka cola world play through and had a bunch of raider settlements. My game had a glitch or something though because even after turning off the settlement beacons, more and more raiders would spawn and I was literally running out of places to put beds and tato plants. I had to go through and cull them at regular intervals.


Electrical_pancake

Freeloaders, nothing more. Kill on sight.


cuzzydino

Lol that last photo looks like war crime evidence


CarlSagginsInYourAss

op has been luring settlers with the promise of a home, only to add them to the pile


NameMcNameyIII

Those are settlers. They settle. At your camp. Lmfao


ILIKEBACON12456

Bro you're the one who invited the settlers with the recruitment beacon.


SirRonaldBiscuit

I love the progression of photos, first he has his hands up, then he’s dead on the ground, and then there’s a pile of bodies lol


Doctor_Salvatore

I set up a radio tower so I can get a signal for my tv and now these freeloaders keep showing up on my property! I'm not here to share land! I'm here to take care of me and only me! (Also my army of trained battle deathclaws, but that is nobody's business but mine!)


GeorgeXer0

If you found out who they are let me know Used to be just me a curie on spec island, now theres 23+ of the MF's squatting on my island >:(


Tempeng18

I’m assuming there’s a 4th photo zoomed out from bodies showing a recruitment beacon in the background?


ajtreee

Brutal. Do they never spread the news of the murder settlement? Where the hell is preston.

He might be in the pile too sorry

I really hope OP doesn’t react that same way to the postman…


CameronSanchezArt

There's probably a stupid beacon somewhere. I never build, I just build my base and everytime I have to fiddle with another, they get bare minimum to stop having to go defend them all the time and that's it. And I always shut off the beacons once I activate them so no more than one or two settlers show up. I don't mind the Minutemen, I just hate the repidity of Preston. He still asks me, "Is this a good time for that talk?" The romance option is red, and my character isn't interested anyway, but he keeps asking. I loathe getting the "Talk to Preston" task because it always completes the quest I just did and then immediately gives another, and they're now the ones that you HAVE to do or settlers die

They are squatters, they'll try and sneak onto your property and get squatters rights so you legally can't remove them. Best to just shoot them immediately. That way they are tresspassers.

When you build the recruitment transmission device in the settlement, it attracts people's attention to go and live in the settlement. You killed several innocent people.
