don't rush it like i did. the check point half way through causes you to auto incognito/cover against a wall. had to quit and resume as to not mess up achievement. ty for video all your spots worked. plus one

I accidentally hit the cover button right near the start near the blue truck, I deliberately failed to restart at the first checkpoint, then after doing it successfully it didn't pop. I can only assume you have to restart the case?

Extremely Glitchy achievement I'm now on my 17th attempt at this and I don't know if this is possible at this point. Don't know how many more times I'm going to restart the case before dropping the game.

First try as well, don’t sit on the bench at the beginning but go into hotel like the video.

I just got this achievement. She spotted me shortly before I reached the statue; I hit the A button to keep on playing; Phelps was in cover behind a brick wall; I left the case. When I re-entered, I was back in the hotel room before the questioning. This time she didn't spot me and the achievement popped.

I dont know where exactly that "check point half way through" mentioned by TheOnlyMatto is located, but as long as you haven't reached the statue when you are spotted, you should be able to get this by exiting and reloading without having to restart the complete case.

It is subtle, but like Mr. Ringtones didn't get it the first 2 times I tried and didn't get caught. One thing to keep in mind is the third time was the charm. Do not go incognito at the beginning, despite what the description says. Then the achievement unlocked when I saw Roy again at the end of the alley.

Here's my experience with this:
- Got spotted very quickly, so I quit L.A. Noire.
- Reloaded, then did the whole section without being spotted or using cover. The achievement didn't unlock.
- I finished the rest of the case, and it still didn't pop.
- After the next case started, I quit the game, reloaded, and the achievement popped.

Case: The Set Up [AD Vice].

Part way through this case, you'll come to a point where you'll need to follow Candy to her destination on foot. The aim is to follow her without going incognito (so pressing  at newspapers or shop windows - except for the start) or taking cover (pressing  on walls or objects). You can still obviously take cover by just standing behind objects, just don't press .

Following Candy is pretty easy but keep your distance. If you get too close she'll simply just turn around and spot you, which will then disable the achievement. Wait for her to turn around corners then sprint to catch up! Hide behind cars, fences and even dustbins to conceal yourself. Use the 3rd person camera to your advantage. As long as you can still see Candy with the camera, the game won't tell you she is out of site. Though doing this and letting her walk miles away won't work, as she will then start to vanish in the distance!

You can also earn The Shadow trophy at this time if you haven't done so already. If you get caught, you will have start that scene over by pressing , then quitting and resuming the game from the interview in her house, that will ensure that you get the trophy. Do not Retry!

You will earn this trophy during The Set Up case while on the Vice desk. You will end up leaving Candy’s home and tailing her. You should never press the or buttons while in this objective of this case. Don’t ever get into cover or go incognito (sit on a bench, read a paper (you start off that way) or look at a window). You can hide behind a car if needed or a tree as long as you don’t press the to get into cover.

The best way to go about this trophy is to stay at a distance. Stay at least a block away, but keep her in view until she turns a corner. If the red blip on the mini map starts to blink, it means you have lost sight of her. Staying that far away from will not spook her nor will she stop to turn around and see if she is being followed.

It is necessary during surveillance not to use shelters and incognito places; shelter is that is, we forget about its existence during surveillance. And incognito is the place where, when you press X, the detective starts either reading the newspaper or cleaning his shoes. At the very beginning of the surveillance you CAN AND SHOULD sit down with a newspaper, until the end we just stand around the corner or a car/tree and voila, the trophy is in the piggy bank, on the ps3 the trophy if you screw it up, that is, they will see us, then the advice was to close the game through the PS button and then close it pass, I didn’t check if it was possible to do this, but I knocked it out on the first try, if you fail, try continuing from the checkpoint, and if it doesn’t fail, I’ll write everything down at the top

Several times the woman noticed me, which is why I had to replay the game. I didn’t go to the “Main Menu”, much less do a complete restart of the game. The comeback from the checkpoint did not break anything for me - the trophy fell, as mentioned above, during the cutscene.

Perhaps the trophy is buggy, while going through the company I knew about it in advance and went through surveillance without using X and , the trophy did not fall out, then after completing the main branch, sometimes I returned and replayed this moment, 4 attempts and the trophy still did not fall out, and only after I went through the entire plot, after selecting cases, the trophy fell out on the 5th try, I don’t know if it’s a bug or no, but the fact remains a fact.

Case "Setup" of the morality department.
From the very beginning of surveillance (after the newspaper on the bench), we use dashes from corner to corner (because of which we follow her, but! - without using the button !!! - this is the most important thing). As soon as it is out of sight, we rush at full speed to the next observation point. Trophy will fall out during the scene after the surveillance.
Attention!: immediately after the scene the game autosaves!

The Case of The Set Up Department of Morals. According to the plot, you will have to follow Candy to find out additional information. Everything is quite simple, in surveillance you cannot use R1 (cover) and (disguise), except for the very first moment with the newspaper. Keep your distance, do not run, or run while only in the dead zone, do not press when approaching the edge of the house , but just stand there and turn the camera to look around the corner. Elementary trophy.

If you are spotted and continue the game, you will not be given a trophy (I didn’t get it). I replayed at first and the trophy fell out unnoticed.

If you are noticed, you can exit the game via the PS button and continue from the point of interrogation, and then begin surveillance. I got the trophy in the scene of the conversation with the bookmaker
