    LoneSt4r1836Yours is now the #1 solution so I suggest you go back and edit it to put in the relevant information.

    if you need guidance to where you have to go in a main mission storyline objective when its clearly been shown by the game... damn right you shouldn't be playing these games

    TrimSkinkThis event happens when you return to Detroit and your objective tells you to go to Convention Centre. Instead of following the objective, go to room 2005 for the press conference.

    1. Discredit, 2. Redirect, unless Taggart says "My heart goes out to you" (in which case use Confront), 3. Discredit, unless Taggart mentions that he is a psychologist (in which case use Confront), 4. Discredit. This path has a 100% success rate.

    You will come to the point of obtaining this achievement through the story However it is missable so let's proceed.
    You will need to make 4 choices during the conversation, now here are the choices you need to make:

    1) Discredit
    2) Redirect
    3) Confront
    4) Redirect

    this will make Bill Taggart slip up and tell the crowd that he wishes to talk to you.

    Edit: For more information please see MY video below... Thanks Gamers
    Further more if you sneak into this dressing room backstage and use his computer, you will never be able to enter the conference room as shown in my video so you will actually completely miss this achievement !!

    Lady EvolThis guide didn't work for me. The 3rd option made it drop, and the 4th did nothing.
