Mafia III: Definitive Edition

Tired of the police station. Absolutely perfect. Thank you.

Brilliant spot to do this. Thanks!!!

I made several attempts in a place where there are six policemen gathered. I tried using the machine gun, the pistol and even the bazooka but the conquest in was unlocked for me. After killing four enemies in slow motion, do we really have to die to be counted?

ugh i just did that mission last night, this is why you wait a few days before playing :(

I used the strategy you use for the recruited to 5th SFG trophy, It's on youtube, Since the cops could only come at me from one narrow alley they just bunched together in a line. And if you keep them mad at you more will come, I kept at it until the trophy popped. Lol their is a massive amount of bodies

FYI if you missed this location the next mission in the room where the seance (when you're on the balcony looking down) you can rinse and repeat here . Worked perfectly for me as i missed the first opportunity.

Spot on bud this was the spot I figured would be great so I made a clip showing how to do it but you beat me to the solution as I didn't write one as soon as I unlocked it

If there's a way of you being able to use my clip you can definitely go for it to give people a visual of where it is/what they need to do if you want.

Unfortunately it didn't work for me. I got more than 100 tries and also different locations and in the end its still locked. So it should have some other kinda hidden requirement for achievement to unlock!

So simple, best solution Ive seen for this game... quickest thumbs up of my life

Perfect solution. Easy solution for a potentially difficult achievement.

Great spot. Thanks a lot.

Awesome guide, thank you.

Great guide can confirm this same checkpoint will work for the proximity mines too chuck it at the chair and you should get all 4 but the back right girl was hit or miss. Just reload either way and repeat

Thanks works perfectly!

Worked perfectly for me, thanks!

Still works as of Sep. 2021!

This achievement refuses to unlock

I used the silenced M1N9, from all the guides I thought it had to be a pistol.

If you're like me and didn't know how to restart checkpoints you just have to pause and go to the "Game" tab and it's the second option from the top. This is by far the best way to do it!

I did mine in the warehouse only shot the first guy in the head and just killed the other 3 as quickly as possible before the meter ran out no headshots. Reloaded the checkpoint about 11 times and the achievement popped.

From my experience, the police become hostile once you pull out your gun. However, I don't see why the achievement should not work with the police unaware.

It's just that doing the sniper kills from the last DLC wouldn't work when the police were unaware of you. Figured it may apply to this as well.

A superb place for doing this as well is in the mission "Worse than Dying", in the courtyard area after arriving.

In the far right corner are 3 enemies by a table. Kill each with a pistol headshot, then turn left and you should be able to pick off one more. Die and repeat 10 times.

Easy way to do this on Welty Storage mission. There is 4 cult enemies stand in warehouse. I kill them all then reload checkpoint.

Same here... does not pop after 30 times or so!

Doing the Welty Storage mission though

I personally think its best to do it in the location I mention above. Land 4 headshots, and it should work. May have done 15 or so, but it was pretty close to 10. Make sure they are completely dead whilst in Slow Mo. Still +1 as the method is solid and well explained!

Plus one from me, you know, if you run in, do it like in the video.....then run to where the two cop cars are, reload your weapon, you have a shot (no pun intended, after your slow-mo refills) to kill 4 more that come after you, two on each side of the cop cars!! Then you can get yourself killed......

Has anyone tried this in "All For the Blessed", I thought this would be the perfect place to try using my GL Korsky, but nothing's popped (so to speak) yet.

Cops are sometimes better for this cheevo because they tend to stand in one place more often while they are shooting you.......goons like to just flutter about so its harder to get good headshots in.....this is the best and easiest solution IMHO..........

It has to be headshots? The description just says "using Slo-Mo Shooting".

Oh no....I was talking about a completely different achievement....

@Macmanius It doesn't have to be kill by headshot but headshots give you more time in slow motion. I tried shooting the cops' torsos but it wasn't very effective.

@Housin 2203, i think i've tried the sloom before the DLC landen so that might screwed things up for me so have to start from scratch (again!) for the 5th time i'me afraid...

@Lion Ozerov You don't have to die but it respawns the police and removes your wanted level for the next attempt.

Do I have to kill exactly four or can I kill more? Because of the various attempts I made I killed five or six enemies and so far the conquest did not unlock.

I don't see why the achievement would disallow 4+. Maybe try 10 rounds of just 4 kills?

Do I have to kill exactly four or can I kill more? Because of the various attempts I made I killed five or six enemies and so far the conquest did not unlock.

I'm trying now, 10 attempts to kill exactly 4 enemies to see what happens.

@Rossticus I got it. For me it only worked in "French Ward" anyway. In other places with other enemies the conquest was not being accounted for me.

You can actually get 3 lots of kills here. I have posted a video solution if anyone needs the help.

I can vouch for Lucky's tactics: I got the achievement (trophy, technically, since I'm stuck on PS4) in under fifteen minutes. I spent two hours grinding before that, to no avail.

Would slo shooting with the rpg work? All you would have to do is throw a voodoo doll and wait for them to gather then using slow motion shoot them with rpg, anyone tried that?

^ As long as they are enemies (police need to be hunting you) then I don't see why it would not work.

yeah, same for me, tried on few places and checkpoints. I even started a new game and it still doesn't unlock.

I did exactly as the video says and it worked for me. I just unlocked it. Thanks for the video!

Can confirm it doesn't unlock for me either. Tried to do it in missions and the police way with no luck

Still locked. Tried just after started a new game before all the DLCs are available to play. Than later after I went to the father and started the DLC, no luck at all. I wonder what we are missing and how can fix it?!

Try letting the slow mo run out rather than exiting the slow mo.

It can't be the case as when using Welty Storage method the slow-mo mode is immediately ended once you kill the 4th enemy in the area and you are put into investigation mode.
Anyway I've done at least 15 multikills on a French Yard police station holding down left trigger until meter is completely empty.
Still no cheevo!

Anyone contacted Hanger 13?

Warboy, But does it make Recruited to 5th SFG actually possible through this though?

As it's to get them in 5 seconds, our time or ingame time? Or I guess just easier because they don't move as quick, you still need to do it in 5 seconds and be accurate etc..

I was just guessing, TBH, I got the "Recruited to 5th SFG" cheevo way before the 1st DLC ever came out, but it does make sense....

"Anyone contacted Hanger 13?" - I did, via 2k forums support, cannot find any other valuable option.

Any response?

I did this also at french ward police station and it worked for me...

No, not response at the moment.
And yes buddy I'm sure all methods work, but only if certain requirements are met. But there is definitely something that prevent very few people to unlock it. And so far we don't have a clue what is it.

I got the Recruited to 5th SFG achievement by this method too so clearly the slow-mo counts in that one! Thanks! :D

Anyone know if this got fixed?

Nope, it isn't and I never got response from Hangar 13!

I followed the steps that Eblio posted and it worked for me! i just went to the French ward police station and killed the cops there. I did quit the game after connecting to the internet because i wasn't getting anything, started the game again waited for about 2 mins and the achievment popped!

It it’s not unlocking for you guys here what I did to resolve this without uninstalling the game. Just delete all your save data ( delete everywhere ) and play it offline tell the moment it says slo mo shooting can now be accessed ( after talking to the lady in the club when cleaning up the first district for Cassandra. ) and go to the French Ward ( the police method ). I did 12 and paused and went online again and waited 3-4 mins and it popped.

To those of you who have tried this multiple times to no avail, I have a question. Did you (like me) try to get this cheevo in the main game, after the update was released but before the DLC was available (the update gave the slow-time mechanic after-all). I did and I swear I did this ten times on the final mission for trying to kill Marcano and it didn't pop. Then I did it at least 10 times throughout the main DLC story (kept a tally chart) still no pop. Lastly I tried this and still nothing.

My point is that by attempting it before the DLC was available, do we think my Xbox has stored those first 10 times as 'complete' but the achievement didn't pop, and now I can't hit 10 again as I've already passed it.

Sorry I know that was long, but just a theory.

I made several attempts in a place where there are six policemen gathered. I tried using the machine gun, the pistol and even the bazooka but the conquest in was unlocked for me. After killing four enemies in slow motion, do we really have to die to be counted?

That sucks, I just made 15 more attempts and it still did not work. I made a video capture of my gameplay, am I doing something wrong?

So as it seemed that Hangar whatever and 2K not gonna help, I've tried to contact some of the gamers that wrote in the comments that they had it glitched but after all had it unlocked and REPOMAN NL responded! Thanks for the heads up and the huge help mate! Super nice guy!

So he guided me to the goldyman77 solution for
"Danger Close" Achievement which also happens to bugged along with some others.
Solution for Danger Close In Mafia III: Definitive Edition

It turned out that the issue with the achievement is related to an issue with the cloud save improperly either registering or not registering something that causes it to not unlock.
So I followed the instructions and IT DID UNLOCK.
Also this method seems to work with other glitched achievements so try it if you experience any other!

I will try to sum up what I did in case you wonder, but all credits goes to REPOMAN NL & goldyman77!

1. Click Start button on Mafia III and choose Manage Game
2. Go to Save page, select your own save file and be sure to click on Delete Everywhere. This is very important, you have to delete all possible saves that you may have. Including local and cloud save.
3. Now go back to the 1st page of managing game and click on Uninstall All. So you dont have the main game or any DLC installed.
4. Now reinstall the main game and then all the DLCs.
5. So before starting a fresh game, be sure to Go Offline. This is very important too. You want to be offline no matter what.
6. Start the game and play as usual to the moment that you acquire Slo-mo shooting. You will receive a pop up window, if you wonder when it is.
7. From now on just find a best spot to grid the 10 multikills and do at least 15, just to be on a save side. I personally found "Rob the Cop Bar" a perfect spot because Burk settlement is just around the corner and you don't need to drive a lot to get to the cops.
8. After you are done with the kills, Pause the game and press Guide button, then select Connect to Xbox Live and return to the game.
9. I begun to panic a little because nothing happened and achievement didn't unlocked immediately as stated in the other solution, and I quit the game. And then start it again, ka-ching! It maybe needs some time to register or a restart, I don't know, but either way it popped!

Just a side note, I was wondering if I actually have to assemble the whole crew and to be able to start the actual "Sign of the Times" DLC before starting to count the multikills, it turned out that you don't have to!
