How to unlock the Silent Kill achievement

    The best place to get this Achievement is in Chapter 2 after you learn about the Sneak Kill you're going to come to an area with 6 enemies simply crouch walk up behind them and press cn_A when prompted.


    1.Hide behind the hay after the cut-scene and wait for the enemy to walk away crouch walk after him and kill him.
    2. Hide up against the corner and wait until the enemy is walking away and follow him and kill.
    3. There are 2 enemies up ahead but you don't want the one on the road first, take the other guy out by sneaking around the hay stacks.
    4. Take out the guy on the road.
    5. Sneak through the building disarm the trap and make your way outside for no.5.

    Getting this Achievement will cost you the Achievement for not killing an enemy on Chapter 2 but you can reload to previous saves.

    *for some reason the Achievement will not trigger for me but I used another account to get it and my video shows exactly how to do it*

    Johnny Fl3xI got mine after killing the 4th guy in the video so maybe the guy you kill during the little tutorial does actually count. This was on my first playthrough as well.

    Deranged AsylumI think it counts for some and not for others, this Achievement can be a real pain in the ****. I couldn't get it at all on my own GT but got it instantly on a dummy account.

    Moo Moo DairyLike Jonhny Broflex said, I got this on the "4th" guy as well.

    Some of these achievements seem to be iffy on the requirements or updates have "fixed" them

    So yeah, the tutorial stealth kill counted for me

    *WARNING*

    Some people have stated that this achievement is glitches on them. If it does glitch on you try deleting the entire saved data you have on your console. To do this go to Games and Apps and under Games select The Evil Within and manage data. Go to where your saved data is and delete it this includes the Day One Patch and for good measure remove the entire downloaded game as well. I personally did this after deleting the game itself and followed the above videos and my achievement popped. I am guessing it has something to do with the Day One Patch not working properly but I can only assume. Hopefully this helps out people who cannot get it unlocked

    From the VOIDThe guide by AH Luis works. I deleted everything then reinstalled, but I unplug my internet so I would not get the update (since it won't let u play without it when connected), played to chapter 2, silent killed everyone ( just to be sure). Then I quit and reconnected Internet, checked my achievements and then it popped.

    The best location is in Chapter 2 when a cut scene places you behind a hay stack. You will want to sneak up behind and kill 5 enemies without them seeing you. As you progress through the level you will want to use tall grass for cover, this will help you go unseen. The video shows the best path to taking down the enemies.
