So think this might be linked to "Yes, Boss"-
Need Social Enhancer for that.

But yeah. . . Think its ---------------


(dont know how to make spoiler tags here Usually just [/spoiler])



So.....


SPOILER!

I think it starts from shutting down the signal on the roof at the gang area in Detroit.- Confronting your boss about it and getting the info and then keep continuing collecting data about the subject.
So yeah basically just do whatever Prichard asks you to do to figure out why there was a open proxy in the security and who used it.

[KriugerisLT]

First time I had that talk with Sarif, I didn't have CASIE installed, so maybe that's why I didn't get it. Ok, thnx for the heads up.

So far so good. Going for the 3 for 300GS.

Like A Boss

[SolusFlare]

Yeah gotten jump.- But dont have many skill points. (due to just running through the main missions.) So got lvl 2 hack and rest is stealth. But yeah, helps trying to keep it stealthy still and then figure out exactly what i need next time.

Good Soul (15g) Easiest way I've found to do this on normal or easy when you crash land equip (If you have them if not backtrack a bit to get at least 3) Poison grenades. Right as the chapter loads up quickly equip your grenades, Jump down run to the first pillar you come to. Toss grenade one at the first heavy enemy making his way to the crash site (idealy you want to toss it in the area of the of the sniper on the second floor: note you dont want to throw it on the second floor least not that one.), Toss grenade two on the second floor with the sniper(s) , Toss grenade 3 on the second floor of the building on the other side of the stage. Once thats done grab your most upgraded gun and move forward picking off enemies and taking out the mech that will spawn.


The Last Straw(15g) Once the conversation begins choose the tough love options to talk sandoval out of taking his life.

Balls (15g)Find the the basketball hoop in the detroit city map simply score a basket for an easy achievement unlock.

Kevorkian Complex(10g)After you have finshed getting the information you need click the leave option. Youll be begged to give the quest target a lethal injection. Simply agree to do so and you're done.

The Fall(10g) Throw mr.diamond of the rooftops rather than the other option available to you.

Sentimental Value(10g)Upon leaving sarif building the first time Mrs.Reed will ask you for a favor thus giving you a new side quest complete the side quest and return to your apartment. Once in the lobby Mrs.reed will approach you complete the quest but keep the quest item found.

Ghost (15g) Can be obtained on stage one right after the prologue. When the stage loads in take out the guard around the first corner using your method of choice. On your right you will see some vents and just past them a fork lift with a crate on it. Use said forklift+crate to jump onto the storage containers and make your way up to the ladder leading you to the rooftop. once there stealthily make your way to the vent on the other end of the rooftop.

Old School Gamer(10g) Easy chevo to pop at the begining while in Dr.Reeds office look for the following.
Datapad: on the couch

News paper pad: right infornt or your starting point it is also the one he is reading in the cutscene.

Toy car: This one can be hard to spot but its on the desk adjacent to dr.reeds desk.

Photo: On Dr.reeds desk next to her computer.

Computer: On dr.reeds desk read all the emails.

Book: This particular book is black and white in color and is in front of her printer on her desk.

The Throwdown(15g) During the confontation with taggart I confronted as my first choice, Confronted as my second choice, Redirected as choice number 3 , and finally redirected as choice number 4. once you've done that he will apologize to the public and chevo should pop

yea im gonna loose one of 3 on this playthrough haha.

But gotten 34 chevos so far, so all good. Plus the game is just pure fun.

[KriugerisLT]

I also noticed, that upgrading your lungs and improving your legs further is just a waste of Praxis points. Invisibility ,Stealth, Hacking, Energy recharge, and Icarus Landing System IMO are best investments.

Kevorkian Complex
Hangar 18

Did anyone find how to get these achievements?

[Therdan]

You don't need CASIE in order to get 'Yes Boss' achievement and make the Sarif give you access to the data. Just need to answer 'REFOCUS' every time, that's all.

[Azulgrave]

Hanger 18 is one im looking for will post once I've found it. Anyone have any idea what the code is for Lucky guess?

[Sam is Psych0]

anyone know the correct question path for the 'yes boss' achievement?

[Azulgrave]

Sam its the most confrontational one I forget the options you gotta keep drilling him.

Try 1234 code when you do the mission where you disarm the bomb in the sewers after getting the mission from Nicholas. Al least I think it's 1234, what else could it be?

[Azulgrave]

lol I'll give it a go I personally thought it would be something harder but youre right the dude is pretty dumb. Ill report back. its not 1234 lol. Figured as much

[SolusFlare]

Okay just got to hengsha - Construction site.- (crash)-
After her dialogue where she tells me to leave her ass, the radar automatically goes into "hostile" mode and turns red. . .

So the alarm is going crazy. . . Now doesnt seam like I can do anything about it. . . But just having a harder time seeing when and when not, you are allowed to be seen.

If I remember correctly, I got a "Smooth Operator" bonus after that. Just when you get out, stealth your way into the elevator. After the helicopter explodes, wait for ~2mins, the enemies will return to normal status, and it will be easier to infiltrate inside without much notice.

Also, take out the enemies silently that are higher then the rest. Two snipers and I think 2 dudes with combat rifles. After that just sneak in and you're golden.

Msg here if you got a "Smooth Operator" after that sequence. Would be nice to get some confirmation, so that others wouldn't be confused.

I'm trying to plan out how I want to tackle some of the achievements as far as which ones on what playthrough, etc.

Out of curiosity, if any of you have already tried tackling the hardest difficulty, what approach is best? Stealth/hacking, or all out assault?

My thought is that for my first playthrough I want to try for the no kills/alarms achievements, but don't want to do it on the hardest difficulty unless stealth is easy way to get through hard.

Any advice is appreciated.

[Azulgrave]

Your first play through you should go for the foxiest of the hound (No alarms) youll unlock a bunch of stuff if you make good use of your check points. I got 640 my first run and have done more.

I got foxiest of the hounds chevo you can get alarmed enemies but not a hostile status.

Stealth is easiest (well hard) but you cant take allot of bullets and they dont hang on the trees either.

So yeah. Id say take the first play-through on easy and have fun with the game. Do what ever you feel like and get a sense of how all the missions and levels are built up so you know where to go on your next playthrough.

(am doing "hardest" "no alarms" and " no kills" all at once and because of a slip up and bad planing i might have missed the "no alarms" now)

So yeah have fun the first time.
I got about 30 achievements on the first run without knowing any of them.

[SolusFlare]

Ah sorry man. Passed that now and didnt notice :S

You gotten that achievement ?

Just got it! Along with Legend and Pacifist

[Grado]

for the rest of the world the game is not out yet for another couple days

[opiate]

does anybody know if destroying robots counts as a "kill"
and fails the pacifist achievement?

[Midnight Malice]

Since they use the words "anyone" and "dying" I think it is safe to say robots/machines wont count.

Pretty sure machines destroyed and people killed would technically be seperatly tracked as far as the achievement goes, doubt they would screw that up.

Does not. I killed the two in china and got pacifist and Foxiest of hounds.

A robot isn't a person... lol

Too much Futurama?

[doket]

yay! thank you

[KriugerisLT]

Anyone find how to get Hangar 18 secret achievement? I assumed that it had something to do with the hangar in China where you need to disable two robots, but so far i've searched every corner and nothing...

Hangar 18 reefers to a hangar in Area 51 that supposedly held a space-craft. . . might be a good hint.

;My best guess is the hangar with the space shuttle.

Might be, because i never explored that place, i just turned on invisibility and ran like crazy to escape before the crazies saw me.

Exactly did the same. . . But im almost certain-

But makes sense. Alien Space Craft and A space shuttle.

Final part of the game - Big secret? Got a save there so you can check it?
I dont sadly but heading that way.

No, I'm currently in Detroit for the 2nd time after the riots broke out, so it's a long way for me until I get there.
