Traced Trophy - Watch Dogs

If you find yourself not being able to get able to receive any, there is a way to fix it (if you want to call it that). You have to turn off online invasions and reset your notoriety and go back to free roam and then go back in and turn it on again. The downside to this is that you will lose all your acquired skills and progress towards them. Once you get your trophy, build it back up and have fun online.

  1. In free roam, go into options and then online and disable "Online Invasions".
  2. Go back to the game so you see the white emblem on the left side of the screen notifying you that the game is saving.
  3. Go back to "Online Invasions" and switch it back on.
  4. Go back to free roam and do nothing for about 10-20 minutes and then check your recent players met to see if anyone has joined you. If you're good enough, you will be able to spot people coming into your game. If you spot someone suspicious, try pausing the game and if the background is moving on the pause screen, someone is in your game. Also, if someone is in your game, you will not be able to accept new missions or fast travel and will see the silver profile saving icon after a successful tail by another fixer.
I did the above method each time someone had tailed me. Do not have your phone out profiling anyone! Credit toG4MERZLIFE for confirming the Steps.

A couple quick points. If you look at your players met list and see someone did a tail on you, it doesn't mean they successfully tailed you. All it means is that they selected Online Tailing from the menu and entered your game. They could have quit out right away. Also, if you see a player within the past 10 minutes, don't do anything like turn off/on online invasions in the options menu or shut off the game. They could still be trying to tail you, give them time.

As long as the other player profiles you and starts the observe process, it doesn't matter if you spot him and kill him. Just as long as the observation process began.

I have all most unlocked all the trophies for this game and i am not sure how to get the Traced Trophy! does anyone have any clues on what to do?

 

You need to be tailed (not hacked) successfully 5 times by another player. Note that successfully means that you did not profile them, find them, shoot them, etc. It's a luck based trophy because you have no control over when or if someone will be matched up with you for online tailing, however it seems that you can improve your chances by initiating online tailing sessions yourself. Often the person you were tailing will be asked if they want to try to tail you, so if they enter your session just let them win (just do nothing, don't have your phone out, wait for them to win).

 

The best way to do this is to wait whenever you are informed that an online invasion has begun. Don't hunt for the other player, just wait and see what they are planning to do. If you get notified that you are being hacked and your data is being stolen, then the other player is hacking you (not tailing you) and you can try to find them and stop them. If you don't get notified that you are being hacked then there's a pretty good chance that you are being tailed so all you need to do is nothing and let the other player win. You'll be notified when you lose.

 

Once this happens 5 times the trophy will pop.
