Has anyone done both PS4 versions?

I have done the EU version 100% and have just got the US version but my stat awards are still showing as done so I cannot get the trophies for the bronze, silver and gold awards. Does anyone know how to get around this or does this mean I am not gonna be able to platinum it again? :confused:

 

Nevermind I just figured it out. Had to delete all saves and start a new game offline. Stats are all reset.

Deleting saves and starting offline worked, but I found out that if you ever start the game again while online your awards will come back and you'll be screwed.

 

Thanks for this info, I've just ordered the U.S. Version and shall start the games as you have advised. Can't wait to play this game for the third time, just the Chinese edition to get now! :)

What you can actually do is start the main game online so it loads all your awards, then start the second DLC offline and if you complete one of those awards for it it will pop all of the awards trophies for your.

 

I'll try this Gage before I delete my saves from the EU version, hope it works as it will save me a lot of time.

Edit: Great Advice, got the Electroshock Silver Award in the Year of the Snake DLC and it popped all 7 Stat Award trophies from the main game so I can just breeze through the main game using whatever combat I want without worrying about awards!

2nd Edit: Ok so I forgot about the stat award trophy from the Nightmare in North Point DLC. I don't know if the Stat Award trophy from the DLC would have popped had I started it before I began Year of the Snake and done the same as I did to get the main game stat award trophies to pop. If I ever get the Chinese Version I will test it.

I've uploaded all my saves from the PAL and US versions then deleted the hard drive saves just to complete Nightmare in North Point will all its trophies. Once NINP is complete I'll then upload those cloud saves back to my hard drive again as I already had progress in the main game and found 8/10 food vendors plus done 4/5 Environmental kills and I don't want to have to do them again(especially the food vendors!)

Thanks for that awesome hint, Gage. Just going for the 2nd definitive platinum, wasn't surprised to see all awards already earned, but never thought of "auto-popping" 'em. Started Year of the Snake offline, found an evidence bag and that did earn all 7 related trophies!

 

EDIT: didn't wanna create a new thread as this directly concerns the multiple version playthrough without deleting the game data.

 

If you're wondering if the races trophy can be achieved without deleting game data: yeah, it pops without any hassle. Why I'm confirming this? If you check your Social Hub after each race, it won't increase the number of races won. Only if you're faster than on your previous attempt. By the time my trophy popped I was at around 32 races counted as won, but the statistics showed 21/21 completed, so that's the number to check, not the Social Hub challenge.

That's great news. Thanks for sharing that tip about playing offline :dance:

I got 100% for the US version, now I want to 100% again on EU version.

So what I should do or what should I know to get the best of my 2nd play ?

I'm really confused reading all the posts :(

 

If you want to auto pop the stat awards:

 

Start the game online, play the game until you finish the intro thing. Close the game, turn off the internet connection on your PS4, start it again and go into the Year of the Snake dlc. Pick up one evidence bag and it should pop all the stat award trophies.

Intro is the chase part at the start of the game where you get arrested at the end. I just waited until I was walking around again with Jackie then quit out. Trophies should pop as soon as you pick up the evidence bag in the dlc.

Have you deleted your previous playthrough game data? If you're in the Social Hub, does it show stuff as being collected/completed?

 

I'm about to delve into my 3rd definitive playthrough these days. Last time auto-popping worked fine, I wouldn't expect this time to be any different.

@ Mods: I'm creating a new post because it contains a solution to a previously mentioned problem. Makes it easier to track down than merging.

 

If you've previously completed the game and wanted to auto-pop the challenge trophies, please refer to Gage's "how-to" first. Picking up evidence bags might not work, though, so try to complete another challenge, as stated.

 

Even if you've started Year of the Snake DLC offline, it's possible that your stats transfer, meaning that picking up an evidence bag won't trigger the trophies to pop. In that case, the Social Hub will already have all evidence bags registered. You'll have to try and improve another challenge. I had the "Get out of the Way" challenge not completed (580/600 to gold), so I took a cop car, turned on the siren and drove around until the game registered the new medal (in my case gold, but should also work with bronze or silver). That made all the challenge related base game trophies pop.

 

If you're unlucky enough to have all challenges in the Snake-DLC on gold level already, you might have to delete all DLC related saves. I haven't done that so I can't confirm it works. But since there's only one challenge that's trophy related (the aforementioned evidence bags), chances are you might have at least a few challenges not gold yet.

 

Hope that works for you guys. It did for me.

I'm trying to do this in the NA version (I've platinumed the EU version already), but I've just loaded my save in the EU version (which is at 96% completion, shortly before I got the platinum) and all the stat awards there are showing as not completed. I think it's because I loaded the NA version first and started playing online. Is there anything I can do to get the stat awards back in the EU version or does that mean I'll have to do them again in the NA version?

 

Edit: Deleting the NA version and all of its saves didn't do the trick. It looks like I'll have to do them again. Oh well, at least it's a great game. :D

What are people talking about???? Was this patched or something? I platinumed the PS4 digital NA version and completed all of the DLC back in February of this year. I still have all of my saved data in system storage.

 

I've just started the digital EU version and not one single stat is completed... am I missing something here? Others have said that when they started the next version all of their stats were completed so I'd like to know why theirs were and mine aren't?

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

This was patched or something because all my stat awards show as NOT completed. I don't know how you guys managed to pull this off but to future gamers: THIS DOES NOT WORK. ALL YOUR STATS ARE SHOWN AS INCOMPLETE. So just like myself, enjoy getting all of these annoying goddamn medals or whatever the fuck they're called all over again.

 

One of the biggest deciding factors for me rebuying this game was the information I found on this thread, the fact that you could "auto-pop" the stats. That's out the fucking window now, yay! If players were already AWARE of this and never even bothered to mention it on here for other players, I think you're selfish, inconsiderate pricks. Like I said, being able to auto-pop all these ridiculous, tedious reward stats was the biggest reason why I said fuck it and bought this game again.

Taco, chill the fuck down.

 

Read post #16 first.

 

Also, in order to autopop, your records must be already uploaded to the servers when you first completed the first stack (i.e you were connected online when/after you completed it)

I finally figured it out with huge help from Theophobos. For the life of me I couldn't understand why everyone elses stats carried over while not one single stat of mine did - I still don't understand it - but if you're unfortunate enough to have this happen to you as well, don't freak out like I did.

 

The workaround, while a tad tedious (but a hell of a lot better than having to do it all over again from scratch) is to update your stats one by one from your completed version (huge thanks to Theo for this awesome, effective tip).

 

So in my case I jumped on my completed NA version, did, for example, one head shot to update the Headhunter stat, saved the game and quit out. From there I loaded up my EU version and the stat from my NA copy finally showed up. Rinse and repeat for the rest of the stats. Some stats I did have to try and update more than once as it just never updated for some reason so if this happens just keep trying to update whatever stat isn't showing - it'll update eventually.

 

Some stats, like Fast Talker, Explorer, Statuesque and Racer you'll have to completely do over again from scratch but seeing how you have to play the entire game over again anyway and there's trophies tied to some of these stats it's no big deal.

 

Also worth noting to get the trophies to pop, you do not have to be offline when you pick up your first Evidence Bag in the Year of the Snake DLC. I don't know why that was suggested as it made no sense to me so I tried while still online and sure enough they popped just fine.

Hey :)

Just stumbled across this thread by accident. I recently bought the NA-version of the game on sale, because I enjoyed it so much (did the EU-version 100%).

Is there something else you have to keep in mind?

Tried it yesterday, but couldn't get the auto-pop to work.

Started main game until you can walk again in the market (so I didn't finish the first mission technically), then backed out the game. Turned off internet connection, started Year of the Snake and picked up that evidence bag right where you start, but nothing happened.

Tried the same with internet on, but the same.

 

I assumed it would work better with a connection, because the social hub data has to load somewhere? When starting the DLC, I couldn't select the social hub in the menu. I could in the main game, though.

 

Any further tips? :)
