How to unlock the Inquisitive Mind achievement in Call of Duty: Ghosts - Definitive Guide

There are two types of collectibles that can be found within the Mayday DLC.

Classified Intel: These are randomly picked up from searchable items, and their locations change during every playthrough. You will need to pick up a total of 4 of these intel types to unlock them. Only 1 player can pick it up, and it will automatically unlock the intels in order. Any area can contain intel items, and this can easily be boosted solo using the first area and then dying during the first drill section.


Encrypted: These are also permanent laptops that can be found on the map, and their locations are as follows:

- Sleeper Agent: Drill the upstairs door in the first area. Shoot out the window, crawl onto the pipe, and follow it to the left to find the laptop.
- Encrypted: On balcony close to Tesla/HypnoTrap schematics table after clearing the tentacle.
- Witchcraft: In the middle of Area 2 on top of some crates. Use the crates to jump to the top.
- Mutiny: Entering the indoor area on the top deck, this can be found at the back of the room behind the large cylindrical column.
- The Guardian: Final area, on the opposite side of where you enter on the walkway.

Lastly, if you complete Mayday you will unlock the Epilogue Intel,but it is not necessary for this achievement. You can check your progress in the Extinction main menu, and there is a tracker available in the top right corner of the screen showing how many items you have collected.

The 5 permanent spawns are there in the video. The other 4 are random spawns in green boxes it seems like. I've found 2 in ammo cans at random. Still waiting for the other 2.

These searchable ones are killing me. I've started the first area 10 times and only gotten 1 intel.

Update: Got it, finally. Took about 20 minutes of boosting the first area per intel.

This video shows the placement of the encrypted intel. The rest of the intel are found in search spots.

Also, if you are like me and play on both consoles, then the achievement should pop after the first hive you destroy on the second console following getting the achievement on the first.

To get this trophy, you must find all 9 Intel in the map, and this can be done over multiple plays of the map.

There are 4 searchable Intel to find, and 5 encrypted Intel (on computer tablet screens on the ground)

For the encrypted Intel, here are their locations:

1. In the very first area, go straight and slightly left, and you’ll see a ramp that leads to a door. Open the door, and once in the room, jump out the window onto a horizontal pipe. Follow the pipe around, to the left, and the Intel is up here in the corner.

2. After beating the tentacle, going through the next door and climbing the stairs, normally you will take a right to get to the cargo bay. Instead, go straight onto the catwalk, and take a right. The Intel is here.

3. This one is a bit tricky to get. In the cargo bay, go to the back left corner. From here, turn around and get on top of the shipping crates by walking up the sloped crate. Next, look on the right for a few shipping crates, one of which has a horizontal gas barrel lying on it. You will want to jump to this crate, and stand on the gas barrel to allow you to jump on top of that crate. Once on top, turn around, and you’ll see a lone crate across from you, jump to it to get the Intel.

4. In the fourth area, the final area with hives, there is a metallic pillar sitting along the back wall with a door on the right of it. Simply go behind this to find the Intel.

5. This is in the boss area. Right when you enter, head directly straight to get to a slightly raised platform on the other side. The Intel is on this platform, slightly to the right side of the platform.

For the searchable Intel, sometimes the Intel doesn’t show up in a co-op custom game, so I would advise to search for the searchable Intel in a solo game. Basically search every single crate you come across in the first two areas, and if you don’t get any Intel, just quit and restart the map. I managed to find 2 in the cargo bay, and 2 in the first area. Just keep repeating until you get all 4 Intel.

This is a video guide to make it easier for you to see where the intel is located at. You can obtain the intel solo or in a multiplayer group online.

There are nine data elements in total.

Five boxes always lie in the same place, but the last 4 pieces. We will have to search during the games in small gray boxes that we open in search of various gifts.

Video with locations of stationary boxes

To craft the last boxes, you can use the following technique.

We start a single player game and after boarding the ship, search all available boxes. After this, we restart the game and repeat this until all 4 boxes are collected. The data will appear randomly, but quite quickly.
