How to unlock the Deal Gone Bad achievement in The Walking Dead: A New Frontier - Definitive Guide

Author's Note: While there is an option to import choices from Seasons 1 and 2, because of an error I was not able to so I was forced to create a new backstory. What differences this will make for people reading these solutions, I can't say. None of the achievements are missable and you'll get them anyway, but your experience may differ somewhat from mine. I'll keep these solutions as general as possible to account for that.

Chapter 4 begins with
cooly dispatching a walker as Javi is led down the highway. A conversation ensues as the two of you evade walkers and head towards a walled compound. Dodge a walker with cn_LSl, then aim with cn_RS and take the walkers down with cn_RT once they're in your sights. Once you save someone from being attacked the gate will be open and you'll be able to go enter the compound, named Prescott.

Once inside the tavern, head up to the bar and talk with the people playing cards, one of whom recognizes Javi from his time as a professional baseball player. Offer your advice to the other card player if you like, before Javi returns to
as a disagreement turns heated. Regardless of your choices
and you're faced with the major decision of corroborating the story or not. Either way, this ends the chapter.

Hmm. Somehow my game skipped this achievement? I got 1,2,3, and then 5,6, but no 4. I guess I gotta replay it again. :(

for me the issues with unlocking wasn't random (that doesn't change the fact that it was still annoying).. but what caused it for me was my controller turning off (100% correlation between that and no achievement popping with three data samples throughout my playthrough)

i hope this helps someone (there could be other random reasons i just wanted to share that i caught onto my own personal reason for it not working)

If the achievements doesn't pop would highly recommend following the guide above as to where each chapter ends. If it doesn't pop in a 10-25 second time frame of reaching the next chapter. Restart the game, load back in that should pop your achievement. Ive done the same with 2 other tell tale games I've played and it has worked a charm. Give it a go!

Story related, cannot be missed.

Clementine will lead Javier to a small community (Prescott). The herd that Javier encountered earlier has caught up with them. Clementine will untie Javier from his restraints as they make their way to the gated community. Press to dodge a walker grab and then use to shoot 4 walkers.

Inside the bar you're free to look around or interact with the new characters. To progress with the story, talk to the card player (Conrad) at the front of the bar. Upstairs, Clementine is having an argument with a bullet maker, Eli. Shit will hit the fan as Clementine will accidentally kill him when the bullet turns out to be real and not blanks.

Make your choice:

  • It was just an accident!
    • Javier will tell the truth about what really happened and Clementine will be taken outside for a little talk with Tripp, while Javier will be sent to Eleanor.
  • Yes. She was justified.
    • Javier will lie to cover for Clementine, but both of you will be placed under lock and key.


Once you've picked either of the above choices, the trophy will unlock. The only real difference is Javier will be patched up by Eleanor during this chapter and Clementine will be pissed at Javier if you told the truth. If lying, then the trophy will unlock right away but Javier will be patched up by Eleanor during the next chapter. Clementine will have more trust in Javier if you do this.

This achievement is story-related and cannot be missed.

Javi and Clementine enter a settlement and meet a man named Tripp. Your exploration will eventually lead to a bar. After meeting Conrad and Francine, you hear Clementine arguing with someone. The argument turns bad and you must make a decision to defend Clementine or say it was an accident. When the scene changes, the achievement will unlock.
