Asphalt Jungle Achievement in L.A. Noire

  • Asphalt Jungle

     

    15

    Chase down and tackle a fleeing suspect on foot as an LAPD Detective.

  • How to unlock Asphalt Jungle

    Cases: The Golden Butterfly x2 [Homicide], The Studio Secretary Murder [Homicide], The Black Caesar [AD Vice] & The Gas Man [Arson].
    Street Crimes: Few

    There's plenty of opportunities to gain this achievement. In many cases or street crimes a suspect will make a run for it. Some chases will either end by you having to fire a warning shot, the suspect taking a hostage or a fight scene, but during all this you may get a chance to tackle them. To tackle a running suspect you'll first need to make sure you're holding  to keep up with them. 

    After a while the suspect will slow down and as you get closer you'll be prompted to tap . When this happens, tap  rapidly to get a sudden burst of speed and you'll then make a dive and tackle the suspect.

  • This is much more difficult than expected because everyone is SO MUCH FASTER THAN YOU!!!
  • You get this Achievement on Disc 2 first case you have to chase and tackle a suspect.
  • Yeah I was just about to put somethin on that. Its the Golden Butterfly case, they talk you through it when you chase the husband, the psychic guy from Heroes
  • for some reason the guy from heroes got a burst of speed when I got near him I had him in my sights started tapping A and then we approached a fence I went over it half a second after he did and then boom he's gone (I think it may have been a thing like in RDR where if you called your horse while running and it ran ahead of you it would run at the same speed (would accelerate when you accelerated) you were instead of waiting for you to mount it, basically he was accelerating when I was accelerating so it was impossible to make up the gap). I got caught up somewhere on the golden butterfly chase so I wasn't able to tackle him, I just seem to have the worst luck when it comes to getting this achievement
  • very easy on disc 2 - golden butterfly case. You will chase down 2 people, no sweat at all.
  • very easy
  • Thanks for the heads up
  • Just run after suspect and when you are close start tapping A until you chase him down, thats all.
  • it shows tap a when near him then again in the chase wait for 2nd time to drop him and just bash a out youll get him.
  • I did this on the Guy u have to chase across the Road where the bus comes out and the Ach didn't pop up, and I hit the A button to tackle him because I did it in the park..
  • Yeah heaps of different places to get this from disc 2 onwards, either street crimes or story :)

  • Cheers everyone for the heads up, will not worry about this till disk 2, Matt Parker your going down!!!
  • very easy to do
  • My golden butterfly case glitched, and the guy kept getting stuck. I never got to tackle him, But I got it on a later case and it wasn't a big deal.
  • It's funny when Phelps tackles the guy, he just gets this huge burst of speed beforehand :L
  • When you are close to the guy and mashing the A button, do you keep holding down RT? Cannot seem to get it
  • Yes Shut9724, Continue to hold down the RT and as you get close (and I do mean close) start to mash the heck outta the A button and when your right on top of him he should automatically tackle him to the ground
  • haven't tried it yet but seems easy enough
  • I find this one possibly one of the easiest achievements. you're bound to get it eventually. its best to keep a straight line between you and the suspect
