Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 Trophy Guide & Roadmap

April 25, 2017 by PowerPyx 34 Comments

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 Trophy Roadmap

  • Estimated trophy difficulty: 3/10
  • Approximate amount of time to platinum: 20-30 hours
  • Offline Trophies: 48 (37trophy, 8trophy, 3trophy, 1trophy)
  • Number of missable trophies: 0 (it puts you back in free roam after beating the story. Even though it says “in one playthrough” in the trophy descriptions you can do it all in free roam after the story)
  • Glitched trophies: 1 – “Marshall” for killing all 16 Most Wanted Targets with patch 1.00 – 1.03. Version 1.00 is missing a Most Wanted Target called “Dr. Darya Kuznetsov”. She was added in patch 1.03 but in doing so they accidentally removed another target called “Stepan Chbaarta”. Up to 1.03 all versions of the game are missing a different target. There is a workaround available! You must get 15/16 Most Wanted Targets with patch 1.00 and then update to 1.03. When you combine the unpatched 1.00 version with patched version you can get all Most Wanted Targets and earn the trophy. This only works with the physical retail disc! If you have the digital version from PSN Store it will automatically download the patch with the game, so there’s absolutely no way for you to earn the trophy until it gets a proper fix. Before starting the game make sure you’re disconnected from the internet so it doesn’t install the patch by accident (PS4 Settings > Network > Connect to the Internet > Uncheck).
  • Does difficulty affect trophies?: No, can do everything on easy.
  • Minimum Playthroughs: 1

Introduction

Welcome to the Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 Trophy Guide!
First of all, let me clear up some confusion. Many of the trophy description say they have to be done “in one playthrough”. This is poorly worded – after beating the final story mission you will return to the open world and can keep doing any and all trophies. There is nothing missable! All the enemies respawn when fast traveling to a different map, so you can farm unlimited kills. What they mean by “one playthrough” is that your stats reset when starting a completely new game (as they do in most games).

SGW3 is very different from the previous two games. It’s now an open world game similar to Far Cry. There are 3 regions: Mining Town, Village, Dam. You can fast travel between these regions at any time (after they’ve been unlocked through story progression). Collectibles and Most Wanted Targets also get marked on the world map automatically when you go near them. In addition to all this, combat trophies can be farmed via checkpoint restart in missions (e.g. stealth kills, kills from below, kills from above). Farming combat trophies via checkpoint restart is the fastest way. The game is very player-friendly in that regard.

Step 1: Beat the Story + Farm Combat Trophies

The first step is to play through the game as you see fit. As mentioned in the introduction, nothing is missable. After beating the final story mission you return to the open world and can still complete all trophies. You can do the trophies in any order you like. If you want to do side missions and collectibles along the way that’s perfectly fine. You can also keep them for after the story and mop up everything in free roam later.

The only thing to keep in mind is farming combat trophies via checkpoint restart. In free roam they can be very time consuming to farm. If you see a good checkpoint, go ahead and farm enough kills to make the trophy pop. This includes the following combat trophies: 20 sniper kills, 30 luring bullet distractions, 30 enemies tagged with tagging bullets, 25 stealth kills, 15 interrogations, tag 10 enemies with CCTV (cameras), 20 kills from above, 5 kills from below.

Pay attention to the 20 kills from above and 5 kills from below. The kills from below require you to hang on a ledge and melee an enemy from below. Kills from above require you to jump onto an enemy and do a melee attack in the air. The quickest farming spot is at the very beginning of Act 2. Immediately after Act 1 ends (wedding) it will transition to Act 2. Here you are in a cave with 2 enemies and can farm those kills via checkpoint restart.

Keep in mind that you can make all enemies respawn by fast traveling to a different map. If you cleared an enemy outpost it’s no problem at all. Just fast travel away and come back, everyone will respawn.

You can also follow this YouTube Playlist along the way: Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 Trophy Guide Playlist

Step 2: Most Wanted Targets, Collectibles, Side Missions, Weapons, Drone Modules

In the second step you’ll be going for game completion and finish up all the side activities required for trophies. This can all be done after beating the last story mission.

There are 16 Most Wanted Targets to kill, 31 Collectibles to find, 16 Side Missions to complete, many weapons and drone modules to unlock.

You can keep track of all these things in the statistics. Refer to the respective trophies for more info.

Step 3: Miscellaneous Trophies & Mop-Up

If you’re still missing anything such as the Triple Kill trophy you can do it now. There’s a good chance that you’ll unlock most miscellaneous trophies through natural gameplay without trying.

GLITCH WARNINGS:

  • “Marshall” for killing all Most Wanted Targets is unobtainable with version 1.00 and also with version 1.03. The game is missing one most Wanted Target in version 1.00 (Dr. Darya Kuznetsov). They patched in this target with 1.03 but deleted another one (Stepan Chbaarta). So with either version one target is missing. There is currently only one solution! Play with the unpatched 1.00 version and kill all Most Wanted Targets there. You should end up with 15/16 targets and only be missing “Dr. Darya Kuznetsov”. Now update to the latest patch and get Dr. Darya Kuznetsov there. This is only possible with the retail disc version! With the digital PSN version it will always download the patch automatically with the game. With the disc version you can simply disconnect from the internet and it won’t download anything (PS4 Settings > Network > Connect to the Internet > Uncheck). Until this gets a proper fix the trophy is absolutely unobtainable with the digital version!!!
  • After beating the story there is a glitch that randomly locks all of your weapons. This resets the progress you have made with your weapon collection and all you can use is the starting weapons. To unlock them again you must replay the entire game. It is HIGHLY advised that you make backups of the save game on a USB device from time to time. If in doubt, go for all the weapons and side missions before finishing Act 4.

There is yet another Most Wanted glitch. Sometimes when killing Ivan Krustchev it will not mark him as killed in the Most Wanted list. Because of this you should manually back up your save game before killing him. Make a backup in Act 1 when the Blockout mission starts (PS4 Settings > Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage > Copy to USB Storage). If it doesn’t count his death copy back your save and try again.

There are a total of 16 Most Wanted Targets in Sniper Ghost Warrior 3. To select a target and check which ones you’ve killed press Touchpad > Journal > Mission Objectives > Most Wanted.

Upon selecting a Most Wanted target it will tell you in which region they can be found. The Most Wanted targets are marked with a  icon on the map. You’ll have to go to all of these icons and kill them. On the world map (press L2 to zoom out) it will show the same icon in the top left corner of a region if it has any targets left. If all targets in the region are dead the icon disappears on the world map. This way you will know exactly in which region to look for remaining targets.

As you progress through the game more targets become available. Some are automatic kills in story missions. The ones you’ve killed are marked with a red skull in the Most Wanted list. If some of the targets are shown as question marks it’s because you haven’t progressed far enough into the story.

Here are the names of the targets and where you kill them:

  • Aiper Erdal: Mining Town map
  • Amin Nabiyev: automatically killed in act 2, main mission “Remains of the Day”.
  • Capt. Abel Dadiani: in front of the maze entrance during act 3, main mission “Labyrinth”.
  • Capt. Dorofrey Ketsba: Dam, coordinates 26.07;12.00
  • Capt. Ioseb Pogodin: Mining Town, coordinates 24.12;21.97
  • Ivan Krustchev: automatically killed in act 1, main mission “Blockout”.
  • Dr. Darya Kuznetsov: Village, coordinates 26.41;16.42
  • Grivapsh: Mining Town, coordinates 24.32;18.83
  • Joost Arends: Dam, coordinates 29.92;11.80
  • Lev Trapsh: automatically killed in act 3, main mission “Party Crasher”.
  • Lt. Boris Druganin: you run into him during act 2, main mission “Awa’s Family”. He’s an optional kill in this mission, you’ll have to eavesdrop on him and can take him out afterwards.
  • Lt. Era Baris: automatically killed in act 3, main mission “Slaughterhouse”.
  • Medea Janashia: Dam, coordinates 25.74;13.57
  • Stepan Chbaarta: Dam, coordinates 28.73;14.77 (he is missing in patch 1.01-1.03)
  • Tanya Ratsba: Mining Town, coordinates 23.08;19.17
  • Vladislav Bagapsh: Village, coordinates 27.89;12.06
Local Hero: Dam
Complete all Side-Ops on Dam in one playthrough
Dam is the third map in the game. You access it for the first time in Act 3.

You can still earn this trophy after beating the story! It will put you back in free roam and you can just keep doing missions. The first mission of each quest line requires you to go to a white exclamation point, marked on the world map. Here you meet a Resistance Operative. Talking to the operative starts the quest line. The remaining missions of the quest line will be send to the laptop in your safe house automatically. They can be selected the same way you start main quests – open the laptop and choose an Act. From there choose the side mission you want to play. If no exclamation point marker is to be found you haven’t progressed far enough into the story. These markers are also a bit hard to see because they are colored white and operatives are inside buildings, which are also white on the map. The list below also shows the act in which each side mission becomes available. To keep things simple, just do them all after the story and everything will be accessible.

Manual Labor
Use Crafting for the first time
You can craft ammo and items at the workbench in the safe house. Crafting requires resources which can be found in chests marked on the world map and minimap. Most resource containers are found at Points of Interest and in enemy outposts. Once you have enough resources, craft whatever you want at the workbench. Crafting ammo is a cheap option (you just need to produce one single bullet to earn the trophy).
DIY Enthusiast
Craft item from each category at least once in one playthrough
There are 3 crafting categories: Ammo, Gadgets, Equipment.

You need to craft only 1 single item in each category. The cheapest option is to craft one 7.62mm bullet in the “Ammo” category, 1 Frag Grenade in “Gadgets”, 1 Adrenaline Pack in “Equipment”.

Crafting requires resources which can be found in chests marked on the world map and minimap. Most resource containers are found at Points of Interest and in enemy outposts. Once you have enough resources of each type return to the workbench and craft the aforementioned items. While going for collectibles you’ll be visiting many points of interests with resource containers.

Treasure Hunter
Find 25% Collectibles in one playthrough
See trophy “No Stone Left Unturned”.
Archeologist
Find 50% Collectibles in one playthrough
See trophy “No Stone Left Unturned”.
No Stone Left Unturned
Find all Collectibles in one playthrough

There are a total of 31 collectibles in Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 (8 Historic Rifles & 23 Things From the Past). Finding all of them unlocks 3 trophies:

  • Treasure Hunter (Bronze)
  • Archeologist (Silver)
  • No Stone Left Unturned (Gold)

None of them are missable! You can get them all in the open world after the story because the game will put you back in free roam. Even though the trophy says “in one playthrough” the trophy will still unlock if you get them after the final story mission.

To see which collectibles you have found press Touchpad > Journal > Collectibles.

See Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 Collectible Locations for an overview of all individual collectibles and their timestamps in the video.

Hiker
Complete 5 Point of Interest in one playthrough
 See trophy “Cat Killer”.
Trouble Seeker
Complete 10 Point of Interest in one playthrough
See trophy “Cat Killer”.
Cat Killer
Complete 20 Point of Interest in one playthrough
Points of Interests are marked on the map with a  icon. They get marked automatically when you go near them. There are 195 of them throughout the game. You just need 20 which will happen automatically as you go for the 31 collectibles. Because the collectibles count as Points of Interest you will automatically unlock the Cat Killer trophy along the way. See “No Stone Left Unturned” for the collectible locations.

Even without the collectibles this is very easy to obtain. Simply drive along a road and many points of interest will pop up on the map. They are very quick events, ranging from simple collectible pickups to freeing some prisoners and looting chests. Once a Point of Interest has been completed it will disappear from the map (there’s a rare bug which causes the icons to stay on the map but rebooting the game should help).

Survivalist
Hunt and collect 150 Organic Samples in one playthrough
Organic samples are obtained from looting wolves.

Wolves are often found in the “Village” region, in the wilderness. They often appear in packs of 3 or more. Roam around the wilderness to find them and hold Square-Button to loot their dead bodies. You only get 2-7 samples per kill so this will take a while.

When pressing Touchpad > Map it will show you the amount of organic samples in the top right corner (there are five symbols for different materials, organic samples are the first symbol on the far left). There are reports of this trophy not unlocking at 150 Organic Samples. If this happens to you just keep collecting and the trophy should soon unlock (can take up to 200 samples to unlock).

You Can Run But You Can’t Hide
Kill an Enemy with a Sniper Rifle shooting through a wall
First you will want to mark some enemies. This is best done with the drone or by looking at them through the scope of your rifle. You can also shoot tagging bullets to highlight enemies in buildings.

Use a .50 cal Sniper Rifle. Those are extremely powerful and will punch through most types of cover. Wait for an enemy to go behind some light cover and then shoot through it. Tagging Bullets are great for marking enemies behind walls. Armor Piercing bullets are great for penetrating hard surfaces. You can equip the bullets and .50 caliber rifle at the weapon cache in the safe house. The high caliber rifles unlock automatically later in the story. They are rewards for completing certain main missions.

The trophy is also possible with small caliber rifles. There’s a very good chance it will unlock naturally as you play through the game.

The White Death
Kill 20 Enemy Snipers in one playthrough
Enemy snipers are regularly found at outposts. Most outposts have at least one sniper, some have even two or three of them. You can go around the map from outpost to outpost and kill the snipers, then fast travel to a different map to make them respawn.

It can also be farmed via checkpoint restart. When you’re at an objective where you must kill snipers, restart a few times to farm the kills quickly. This shouldn’t really be necessary though, as you’ll kill many snipers in main missions and should have 15-20 kills by the end of the story. Doing side missions and Most Wanted targets will lead to additional sniper encounters.

Snipers are easily distinguishable from other enemies because they have a scope icon when you mark them (e.g. via the drone). They tend to sit at elevated positions and have a different outfit than normal enemies.

Curiosity Killed the Cat
Distract 30 Enemies with Luring Bullet in one playthrough
Luring Bullets can be bought and equipped at the Weapon Cache in the Safe House. They will unlock after the first few story missions. You can also craft them at the workbench but buying them is less troublesome.

By holding D-Pad Right you can change the type of ammo. Shoot a luring bullet near an enemy. They will walk to the impact point to investigate the noise. Repeat a total of 30 times. Just make sure you always have these bullets with you before every mission and shoot them near some enemies. If you do this in every mission the trophy will unlock in no time.

Mark the Prey
Tag 30 Enemies with Tagging Bullets in one playthrough
Tagging Bullets can be bought and equipped at the Weapon Cache in the Safe House. They will unlock after the first few story missions. You can also craft them at the workbench but buying them is less troublesome.

By holding D-Pad Right you can change the type of ammo. Shoot a tagging bullet near an enemy or at buildings where you suspect enemies inside. The bullets will mark enemies within a 25 meter radius. Repeat a total of 30 times. Just make sure you always have these bullets with you before every mission and shoot them near some enemies. If you do this in every mission the trophy will unlock in no time. It can mark multiple enemies if they are all within 25 meters from the bullet’s impact point.

Another strategy is to go from outpost to outpost. If you already know where the enemies are (i.e. went there before and marked everyone with the drone) you’ll know where to shoot the tagging bullets.

Assassin
Do 25 Stealth kills in one playthrough
A stealth kill is when you sneak up to an enemy from behind and press R3 to take them down with a melee attacked. You must remain unnoticed during the melee kill.

It can quickly be farmed via checkpoint restart during missions, or by traveling from outpost to outpost in the open world.

The statistics show how many stealth kills you’ve done (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Stealth Kills).

Third Degree
Do 15 Interrogations in one playthrough
An interrogation requires you to sneak up to an enemy from behind (unnoticed) and press the Square-Button. Not all enemies can be interrogated. Go from outpost to outpost and sneak up to lone enemies to interrogate them. You can also do this during main missions via checkpoint restart.

The statistics show how many interrogations you’ve done (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Interrogations).

Drone Warfare
Unlock all Drone modules
*If the trophy doesn’t unlock after buying all drone modules, get yourself killed and it will unlock*

There are 8 drone modules. They unlock automatically from doing main missions and side missions. After unlocking them, you must buy and equip these modules at the weapon cache in the safe house. After opening the weapon cache, select the drone and press Square-Button to modify it with module upgrades.

Here are all the drone modules and their unlock requirements:

  • Night Vision (Main Mission: Two Birds)
  • Thermal Vision (Main Mission: Backup)
  • Luring (Main Mission: Grave Diggers)
  • Hacking (Main Mission: Remains of the Day)
  • Intelligent Recon (Main Mission: Remains of the Day)
  • Camouflage (Main Mission: Quarry Coup)
  • Advanced Camouflage (Main Mission: Down Under)
  • Big Battery (Side Mission: Opium Wars, which starts in the Dam area).

Remember that you must purchase all of these. If the trophy doesn’t unlock after purchasing everything, get yourself killed and it will unlock when you respawn.

Voyeur
Tag 10 Enemies with the CCTV in one playthrough
You can hack certain camera panels and then tag enemies through the cameras. The quickest way to get this is on the dam map, at coordinates 27.15;13.79. There’s a camera panel here that you can approach undetected from the back of the area. Hack it and cycle through the cameras by pressing D-Pad left / right. There are 8 or so enemies here that you can tag. After tagging them, fast travel to a different map and come back to the same location to repeat one more time. By fast traveling to a different map you’ll make all enemies respawn and they get untagged again.

Below are screenshots of the suggested location:

Bullet Sponge
Survive 500 hits in one playthrough
For this you need to get hit 500 times by enemy gunfire. It’s highly recommended that you play on the lowest difficulty, otherwise you will get killed very quickly! Let the enemies see you and run into cover. After taking some hits use a health item (adrenaline, pills, medkit) and let them shoot you again. When you’re out of health items escape, stock up on new recovery items in the Safe House and repeat.

There is a very high chance this trophy will come naturally while going through all the main missions. You’ll probably be seen by enemies from time to time and will then suffer damage from their gunfire. Don’t worry too much about this trophy. Only farm it via the aforementioned method if you’ve done all other trophies and are still missing this one.

Death From Above
Kill 20 Enemies from above in one playthrough
Requires you to jump onto an enemy from an elevated position. Land on the enemy and perform a melee attack to take them out. Repeat this 20 times.

The quickest farming spot is at the very beginning of Act 2. Immediately after Act 1 ends (wedding) it will transition to Act 2. Here you are in a cave with 2 enemies. Let them get close to you, jump onto one of the two enemies and restart checkpoint. Repeat this 20 times.

The statistics show how many kills from above you’ve done (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Kills from Above).

Death From Below
Kill 5 Enemies from below in one playthrough
Requires you to hang on a ledge below and enemy and pull them down via a melee attack. Repeat this 5 times.

The quickest farming spot is at the very beginning of Act 2. Immediately after Act 1 ends (wedding) it will transition to Act 2. There are two enemies entering a cave. Hang on the wall at the cave exit where they’re coming from. When they’re over the ledge press the melee button to take them out. Restart the checkpoint to farm 5 kills here.

The statistics show how many kills from below you’ve done (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Kills from Below).

Turn On the Wipers
Kill 25 Enemies while driving in one playthrough
A car can be found at every fast travel point and safe house. Drive to an outpost with your car and run over the enemies. You can probably get 5 kills or so per outpost. The enemies will eventually hide behind cover and shoot you in the car. A few minor guardposts can also be found along roads, especially at the Dam.

All enemies respawn when fast traveling to a different map (Mining Town / Village / Dam).

The statistics show how many road kills you’ve done (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Road Kills).

Marksman
Do a headshot from 500 meters using scope 10x

For the trophy “Long Shot” you must kill an enemy from 500 meters away.
For “Marksman” it must be a headshot from 500 meters using a scope x10.

Doing the “Marksman” trophy will automatically unlock “Long Shot”.

First you must buy and equip a scope x10 in the safe house. This can be done after the first story mission (the one after prologue). Interact with the weapon cache in the safe house to buy and attach the scope. I was using the starting weapon (XM-2015 sniper rifle).
In the game options enable “Aim Assistance” and “Sniper Red Dot Aim Helper”. When holding your breath (press L3) it will now show a little yellow dot. This dot marks where the bullet will hit. The dot turns red when it’s going to hit an enemy.

Head to the location in the video, lie down, aim at the enemy and hold your breath (press L3 / left stick). Point the aim helper at the enemy’s head and shoot. You may want to stand very close to your screen to see the head.
If you don’t unlock one of the trophies, quit out to the main menu and press continue. It will make the enemies respawn (but only if you haven’t cleared out the entire enemy base).

Aerial Recon
Fly 5 km with your Drone in one playthrough
Press D-Pad Up to use the drone. It is extremely useful to tag enemies and get an aerial view of enemy camps. There’s a good chance this trophy will unlock naturally if you play stealthily and use the drone before every encounter. The drone can fly at 30mph so traveling 5 km distance with it won’t take long. You can spawn it any time even if no enemies are around and fly over the area. Pressing L3 (sprint button) will make the drone fly much faster!

The statistics show how many kilometers you’ve flown the drone (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Scroll Down > Distance in Drone).

Crab Walk
Move 1 km crouching in one playthrough
Press Circle-Button to crouch. In Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 you cannot simply rush into enemy camps (not even on lowest difficulty). The enemies kill you very quickly so stealthy approaches are the way to go. Within a playthrough you will likely get this trophy naturally without trying. You can of course just crouch for 1 km straight if you want to unlock this quickly.
Pheidippides
Run 10 km in one playthrough
Self-explanatory. Run for a combined distance of 10 km (walking doesn’t count, must be running). You can’t run for that long in one go because your stamina will drain over time. This trophy will almost certainly come naturally without trying. You have to cover a lot of distance on foot and will be running a lot.

Note: the “distance on foot” statistics are not a reliable way to track this because they include the distance you have walked and crouched. For the trophy you have to RUN, not walk.

Environmentally Unfriendly
Drive 100 km in one playthrough
Cars can be found at your safe house and at all fast travel points. Cars are the fastest way to travel to mission objectives and you’ll be driving a lot in this game. You can also drive around the map in circles until the trophy unlocks.

The statistics show how many kilometers you’ve driven (press Touchpad > Journal > Statistics > Scroll Down > Distance in Vehicle).

Long Shot
Kill an Enemy from a 500 meters distance.
See trophy “Marksman”.
Triple Kill
Kill 3 Enemies with 1 bullet

For this you need to line up 3 enemies and kill them in one hit with the sniper rifle. The best place for this is Daitbora Estate, an enemy base on the “Mining Town” map. It’s very close to your safe house, to the south-west of it (coordinates: 25.11;20.70).
If you’ve already cleared out the camp, fast travel to a different map (Village / Dam — they are unlocked later in the story) and the enemies will respawn.

Three enemies are guarding the entrance to a building. Two of them are walking around a little bit and they always meet up every 60 seconds or so. A third one is standing still behind them. Wait for the two enemies to stand close together, line up the third and kill them all with one headshot. If you have armor piercing ammo (unlocks later in the story) you can do a body shot.
If you fail, let the enemies kill you and they’ll respawn.

An alternative would be to lure enemies together by throwing stones, with the drone’s lure module, luring bullets, or with a decoy trap. There are many ways to lure enemies. The enemies in the video have scripted movement so they will always work.

Point Blank
Do a short distance Sniper Rifle kill

Sneak up to an enemy from behind (unnoticed) and kill him with a shot from the sniper rifle from 1 meter distance or less. Once the takedown / interrogation prompt comes up you should be close enough.
Works good on lone enemies such as snipers. Can also be done on the first two enemies in the prologue.

If you run up to an enemy in combat the trophy may not pop, so it’s important you sneak up from behind.

Shot Down
Drone destroyed by Enemies
You can use the drone by pressing D-Pad Up. Fly it close to an enemy. Once the enemies sees the drone he will shoot it out of the air and the trophy unlocks.
Blown Up
Drone destroyed by Traps

Simply fly your drone into a mine. There is a mine field at coordinates 27.43;13.77 in the “Dam” region.

Treasure Island
Open the Loot Box on the Island

On the Mining Town map, at coordinates 23.49;19.62, there’s a big lake (far east and about halfway up the map). The second biggest island in the middle of the lake has a box. Looting this box unlocks the trophy and achievement.

You can go there at any time after completing the prologue.

      For real? I’ll look into this. That would really suck. I hope 1.03 save games are compatible with unpatched 1.00. Otherwise it means yet another playthrough, oh yay.

    • whiteriver087 says

      April 29, 2017 at 4:46 am

      no the suck thing is the 1.00 version also miss a guy so you have to first play the 1.00 to kill Stepan Chbaarta and update to 1.03 to kill another one

      Thanks for letting me know! I appreciate it. Added a warning to the guide so people can start without the patch.

    I have done all the missions. But still there is a objective from Blockout that I have to kill the target. When I go to the locations I can’t find him and the icon disappears. Anyone the same problem? Or hopefully a solution?

    I haven’t seen you update where the recurve bow is, and I ended up finding it by accident. In case you still didn’t know where it was, it’s in Mining Town at 24.05;21.77

    It’s a person of interest on the map, and it’s in a little cave.

    Quick question, with the glitched trophy Marshall. If I roll back my save file to patch 1.00, does it reset my Most wanted? Because I’ve already gotten half of the most wanted targets.

      Usually when you go back from patched version to unpatched it won’t read your save game (to avoid patch jumping and potential abuse of exploits from past versions).
      I haven’t tried, but in all likelihood you’ll have to start over.

    I have trouble trying to unlock Drone/Weapon Trophy, even i buy it all and try dying multiple time, it didn’t pop for me.

    *Sorry, please delete above post, auto filling suck.*

    UPDATE:

    I received data from fellow trophy hunter that it maybe popped after collected all weapon, it should be popped all at once in loading screen (4 trophy, 3 weapon+1 drone)

    Try buying everything possible in the shop before attempt.

    Myself try it and got 3 weapon trophy popped but still no drone trophy.

    I SUSPECTED that it require you to buy lesser version of it because you buy larger version before lesser version and so you can’t buy lesser version and it didn’t register properly that you owned it. if you missed it, it seems to be not popped after you died.
    Hope this glitch is fixed.

      The Bow, you have to unlock the bow (Minning Town), is part of the sidearms even though is listed under Secondary Weapons. If the trophy doesn’t pop as you get the bow, kill yourlself.

    Side mission ‘Opium Wars V’ will not activate. I have done everything else and that one side mission is all that is keeping me from my platinum trophy.

    I have tried deleting the game and reinstalling it with and without update patches.
    Is there a way to trigger it somehow?
    Is there anything known as to what causes it?

    I e-mailed City Interactive, but there answer was basically ‘Sorry, can’t help you there. There was probably some kind of a bug which improperly saved your profile status. Sorry for the inconvenience’.
