How to unlock the No Time For Love achievement in Alpha Protocol - Definitive Guide

This achievement is simpler than some seem to be making it out to be. It is completely irrelevant what Madison, Scarlet, and Mina think of you, whether they are +10 or -10. When Scarlet asks you to spend the night -- leave. When it asks whether or not to wake up Madison -- let her sleep. Don't kiss Mina. Or just have them hate you. Doesn't matter. Just don't sleep with them.

SIE, on the other hand, must like you enough to be your handler for the final mission, and you MUST choose her as your handler. She may or may not attempt to jump on you. If she does, refuse her, and you'll get the achievement. If she doesn't, you'll still get the achievement.

At the end, the option "No way in Hell" works perfectly. I laughed so hard when she straight up said "Michael, are you gay?" But hey, gay or not, I'm 20G richer.

Mina - the game didn't give me the option to "wake her up". She was in the bed and if I approached it said press A to talk. Michael automatically says, "I'll let her sleep."

When I couldn't sleep with Mina I figured I might as well go for "No Time For Love" but I still didn't get the cheevo I guess because I didn't take SIE as my handler. Pretty frustrating.

Editing... I suppose I should mention that you _must_ take SIE as your handler.

Cow, you mean Madison, not Mina. The mission before you "let her sleep" is when you get the chance to romance her, so you missed it.

Absolutely stupid. Never romanced any lady in my playthrough, even Mina, Madison and SIE were executed and no achievement.
So doesn t matter if you refuse them all, if SIE doesn´t attend you at the final misión there is no achievement.

You just need to complete the game turning down any attempts made on you. I got this achievement without Mina or Madison ever becoming an option. Scarlet and SIE both made attempts and I refused and the achievement popped after Rejecting SIE. I dont believe the achievement will pop if you never get put in a situation to decline sex

What Steady here is saying is correct, but there is a tiny info missing that makes you unlock the achievement in the end of the game.

When you get to the last mission in the game. Choose SIE as your handler, there will be a cutscene with SIE and Michael talking.

Now you can have (like) on every woman (well you could always piss them off, Madison for instance, you just for the fun of it), but not trust, just to be safe.

Now if you have +2 (which I had) in rep on SIE then she will not seduce you in the end making you get the achievement after the conversation.

So just make sure you have her as a handler on the last mission with the highest rep of +3. Then it should be all good.

I had SIE as my Handler with a +6 Rep but by refusing her advances I still got the achievement.

Alright, Good to know. But was she on top of you when you did?
Because that is pretty much at the level of being seduced.

I didn't unlock it the first time, and it was because I didn't choose Sie as handler.

It was hard to refuse her ;P

The exact opposite of Ladies' Man, you need to make sure that you do not romance any of the ladies in the game, or even make sure they like you. Safest bet, like Judge, Jury, and Executioner, is to make sure that they all simply just don't like you, or at the very least stay neutral with you. For the sake of this achievement however, you must view each of the scenes where you would get the romance achievement if the ladies don't like you. That means you also have to make sure you don't piss SIE off too much, as she must be your handler for the final mission. For how to handle each lady for this achievement, read on.

Mina Tang: Make sure she doesn't like you. That means being Suave with her in the beginning, and just being a jerk in general by responding to her with Aggressive answers and killing or beating the various civilians you encounter. Also, in missions that contain CIA, marines, local law enforcement, or civilians, make sure you kill them. Each kill will make you lose one like point with Mina, so that's huge.

If Mina talks to you via the TV instead of at the safehouse before the final mission, then you're good.

Scarlet Lake: Either Neutral or Dislike is good here. Do not send her anything incriminating towards Hallbech, and just use Suave and Aggressive responses with her.

You'll know you're good if instead of meeting Scarlet in her hotel room, you meet her in a restaurant. She also will not appear in the interrogation room during the final mission if done correctly.

Madison: Dislike is best thing to do, so aggressive answers are key here. Just do whatever you can to piss her off, and show that you don't care. Keep insinuating that she's in league with Marburg, and that you're willing to do whatever it takes to make sure she doesn't talk to anyone else.

If she attacks you after finishing the two missions following "Investigate Marburg's Villa", then you're fine.

SIE: SIE needs to be neutral, or even like you just a little, not up to Trusting. Contrary to the other women, go with Professional answers. She doesn't like by-the-book agents, so go with that. Also, do not choose her as your handler during "Intercept Surkov at US Embassy". Make sure that you do choose her as your handler during the final mission. Try not to get her above +4 like, if possible.

When SIE comes to you while you're in the Medical Bay, and frees you without coming onto you, then the achievement should unlock, provided you've seen the other scenes with the ladies shortly after being released.

This trophy comes with a hidden catch. Obviously the easiest way to prevent from being seduced is by acting like a world class bastard with all four women. Act Aggressive with Mina, Scarlet and Madison, but Professional or Suave with SIE. If by some random fluke any of the other three women present you with the option of consummating the fires of your passion, turn them down.

The catch comes in with SIE. Again, you have to choose her as your handler for the "Infiltrate Alpha Protocol" mission. It doesn't count as turning her down unless the opportunity is there, you see. If she died in Brayko's mansion, or you don't choose her as your handler for that mission you can't get the trophy. If your reputation score is low enough for all women, they won't have any trouble kicking you to the curb. The trophy will pop as soon as SIE walks away to work out her frustrations on some hired goons.

The trophy is obtained in the first playthrough, due to its specificity (you must cause hatred among the maximum number of people). To receive the trophy you must:
- Mina Tang. The goal is to ruin the relationship as much as possible. You can get a reputation of -10 by simply killing civilians and using (Agressive) in conversations.
- Madison. The goal is to maintain a neutral relationship and let her die in the museum. Use in conversation (Agressive).
- Scarlet. The goal is to maintain a neutral relationship and not go on the Contact Scarlet Lake mission.
- Zee . The goal is to maintain relations with Zee at level +2 or +3 and choose her as a partner before the Infiltrate Alpha Protocol mission.

Do everything as described above. I killed Zee with my own hands, having +7 reputation with her. And in the end I didn’t receive the trophy, although I wasn’t actually seduced.

- Mina Tang - the relationship was good - before the last mission, Mina came to the apartment, did not choose the option with a kiss;
- Madison - the relationship was good - when he returned from the mission, he did not wake her up;
- Scarlet - the relationship was good - I didn’t go to see her before the last mission;
- Zee - the relationship was good - chose her as a partner for the last mission. I chose lines so that Zee would undress and climb on top of the main character, and in the end he would drive her away.
