Edit 3: *Seems like the latest patch has finally fixed the achievement.*

There are 47 paste-ups and can be obtained any time. For it to be easier use the construction worker which you get in an early story mission and use the cargo drone to get to the location easier.

Be sure to use the same character when going for them and I think this is the most important step. Use the same image for every paste-up! I'm not sure this makes the achievement 100% pop but this is what worked for me when it didn't unlock the first time I went for it.


Edit 1: Confirmed by Wookiee Hairem that it doesn't need to be the same image.

Edit 2: It looks like the Ubisoft servers are messing the achievement's progression because of the servers disconnecting very often.

You can use x ii Y1D x's suggestion from the comments below: Go and find out which ones you DO have using the video guide, and note down which ones you DON'T have. When going through all of the paste you haven't done, do about 5-10 of them. Quit the game and load back in and check the last one you completed, and if it's complete then you know the saving is working. So I just did some at a time until I finished the last one, and bam it popped!

JuIIIian provided a map in case you want to use the map rather than the video: https://mapgenie.io/watch-dogs-legion/maps/london


For the locations this video showcases very well every single one:


(It's my first guide so any criticism is well appreciated)
AriseSaintSo use the same image or use different ones cause i did all yhe location and it didn't pop for me

Chief KebabUse the same image because that's what worked for me when I went back to every single one

Chief KebabDid you use the same character and use the same image for every paste-up?

Punk Core GamerGlitched for me to using the same character patch please ubi
Posted by Punk Core Gamer on 04 Nov 20 at 05:14
Same character, same image for all locations; thankfully it unlocked for me.

But everyone listen, there seems to be a bug regarding the "Fundraising Goal". It won't count properly when the camera does not zoom in on the operative and the music does not play. I had to dashboard and restart the game multiple times to ensure the bug didn't affect my fundraising goal.

Wookiee HairemI can confirm it doesn't have to be the same image.

halopotato1It has to be the same character? Wow can they make it any more ridiculous? I love how it doesn't even show which ones are completed vs non completed.
Posted by halopotato1 on 05 Nov 20 at 03:35
Mr SpinelesSIt doesn't just have to be the same character, it's worse than that. You can't change characters from start to finish.

I completed them all, failed to get the achievement, so came back later to try again and the thing only popped after I put up the very last Paste up. So either I was very unlucky and the last paste-up was the only one I was missing, or Changing characters resets the counter back to 0. To be safe, I would recommend Not changing characters, Not changing clothes, and no doing missions while attempting to get this achievement.

CapitaoDokI did all 47 with the same character and I didn’t get my achievement ! They need fix that !
Posted by CapitaoDok on 05 Nov 20 at 13:31
Pr0P014kZYeah so just attempted this and I completed all the paste ups (according to powerpyx) but my paste up bar is still not completed and I have not even unlocked all the stencils let alone the trophy. I did fast travel to make my life easier so unless that somehow messed something up. I will try again, this time not fast traveling and I will restart my xbox to see if maybe that will help with anything.

UPDATE: Just started the game and went about redoing the paste ups. Got done with my 5th one and the achievement popped without fully having the bar completed and the last 4 stencils unlocked.

bm2494Had same issue..however covent garden piazza was the one glitches for me. Pasteup was complete but still had a score of 50 to unlock in top corner for completing & this time achievement unlocked & got final 4 stencils

boydo1990I've just done 46 of these with one Character, then accidentally killed them. Then completed the last one with another character (after a quick main menu reload) and it popped. I think the issue is: You randomly lose connection to Ubisoft servers and the achievements stop counting, it sometimes doesn't even tell you, you've disconnected. This is why it seems so inconsistent for people. If you can't quit to the main menu and it just loads forever, you've disconnected from the servers and you've about to lose all the progress you've made since the server lost connection.

Senyah DlanyarIs there anyway to tell which ones have been completed?
Posted by Senyah Dlanyar on 15 Nov 20 at 04:24
Chief KebabThe only way to see the completed ones is if they are already painted or not
Posted by Chief Kebab on 15 Nov 20 at 15:51
liner bronsonThis is completely buggered for me. Didn’t pop the first time around so started a new game and did them all in one sitting with the same character. Still nothing. Weirdly, in the new game, all of the paste ups still had the image from the previous game and I didn’t earn any money for doing them again. Not sure what to do at this point.

SmallGenie549Has this not been patched yet?
Posted by SmallGenie549 on 17 Nov 20 at 20:04
x ii Y1D xDon't think so, but just wanted to share how I did it.

Go and find out which ones you DO have using the video guide, and note down which ones you DON'T have. When going through all of the paste you haven't done, do about 5-10 of them. Quit the game and load back in and check the last one you completed, and if it's complete then you know the saving is working. So I just did some at a time until I finished the last one, and bam it popped!

Hope this helps slightly. They will probably patch it soon, but if you're as eager as I was to do it, then try the way I done it.

HAPPY HUNTING :)

Posted by Netheryea on 25 Nov 20 at 15:36
Chief KebabYou can tell which ones you have done by seeing if they are already painted or not.

Trych MasterI had to use a combination of an online map plus the text guide by Spilner. That was the most tedious achievement in the game.
Posted by Trych Master on 29 Nov 20 at 08:32
Xx Exodys xXIt would seem that if you're not connected to the Ubisoft servers, that the achievement may not unlock. I got all 47 in one go and the achievement didn't unlock. Playing on series X, I went to the main menu and got stuck in an infinite load so dashboarded and loaded up again. I lost about 40 or so of the location progress and did it again. This time I made sure every time I got a location that I was still connected to the Ubisoft servers and after getting all 47 again, the achievement unlocked

SillyMrFlufflesI've been connected to the servers and I've done all the paste-ups now (Most I've done just exploring as I've been playing the game since it's release). I mopped up the few I hadn't discovered or not done yet using the online map. Still no cheevo. Gone around the map twice already to double-check that I had done them and they're all there. Any suggestions?
Posted by SillyMrFluffles on 09 Dec 20 at 12:17
CarlosYabrudyI did all locations in a row and the bar for the final one is missing one. Very annoying
Posted by CarlosYabrudy on 09 Dec 20 at 20:25
SillyMrFlufflesNever mind, done it now. Just went around and re-applied every single one. Bugger me, that was tedious.
Posted by SillyMrFluffles on 09 Dec 20 at 20:41
FreshMeatRadioI used the guide map that's posted in the answers for darts achievement and beers achievement.

You can toggle the legend so you can have all the postups, bars and darts on the same screen.

I did my run through with the same operator and it worked for all 3 achievements. Also don't forget to have a beer inside the hideout, it was the only one I was missing by the end.

v WINTERBURN vOk guys this seems to have now been patched.

Just re did this a in one sitting a 2nd time because it didn't work for me when the game released.

What i did was a mixture of things that were mentioned above such as:

No fast travel

Used the same image on each paste up

Used the same character for every paste up

Quit to the main menu after every 5 and re checking the last one i just did to make sure that it had saved.

Even after completing all of them and getting the achievement the fundraising bar in game was still not full to access the last 4 paste ups.

Hopefully this will help some of you with finally obtaining this terribly boring achievement.

Good luck!
Posted by v WINTERBURN v on 15 Dec 20 at 16:20
HannersWhoI've done all of the paste ups now twice, same character and no fast travel and still no achievement -.-

EDIT: Third times a charm I guess. I got it on my second last paste up and I just used a new Operative on my existing save. I agree that construction workers are great, summon cargo drone and they seemed slightly faster to me than a regular street summoned one.

RoninSoulyCan not be bothered to finish this achievement with all the weird conditions it has! please do let me know If they ever fix it
Posted by RoninSouly on 29 Dec 20 at 08:09
Gizmo2kSo just went for this and the drink in every location and play darts in every location. Used the same character, never got into conflict/died/swapped character. Did one session for the top half of London, quit to menu then force closed the game from dash. Second session was last night, the drink and darts ones popped, Paste Up didn't. Fucking why can't Ubisoft ever release a game that isn't an absolute clusterfuck of a mess. Worse than EA in my eyes. Never buying another Ubi game within the first 6-9 months of release ever again.

EDIT: Got it to pop. Chose my construction worker, the drone is deffo faster than normal, selected the character. Quit to menu. Force closed the game using the menu button. Loaded up the game, went through them all again. It turns out, even though I had done them all, there was one with no paste up image pasted. I remember definitely doing it because it was the hospital one that I flew my drone underneath in the tunnel first. So it's pure glitch/luck if they actually stay pasted. I'd suggest going at it in a one run without a pause or break. Really shit, but there you go. Good luck one and all.
Posted by Gizmo2k on 01 Jan 21 at 11:01
wrhwkDid all of them twice (and quit, restart between them), the second one with one operative, no luck. Well, there goes 2 hours of my life I won't get back...

Weekend ZombiJust finished all 47 paste ups and no achievement. When I go to redo one it says "all paste ups completed" above the images. Last achievement I need.
Posted by Weekend Zombi on 13 Jan 21 at 06:11
Andy AvenueInfuriating but I got it to unlock. I got all 47 done and got the "all paste ups completed" across the top with no achievement.

I went through all 47 again with the one character, doing the same image and on a cargo drone so no fast travel and it unlocked around about the 40th paste up. I think it was one I had done with another character earlier in the game.
Posted by Andy Avenue on 13 Jan 21 at 13:28
Weekend ZombiI also went through them again starting from the last one i did and it popped on the 13th one.
Posted by Weekend Zombi on 13 Jan 21 at 17:56
iTz Canada EhhMine glitched in a good way. I went through all of them (or so I thought) and it still seemed like I was missing 2 or 3. I went through them in order again and I definitely missed one. As soon as I got it, I got the achievement, but I never unlocked the last set of paste ups as the game seems to think I'm missing 1-2 more. So the game progress seems a bit broken for me, but I got the achievement with zero issues.
Posted by iTz Canada Ehh on 14 Jan 21 at 17:58
BlackxRyanWhile doing them for the second time, I realized there was one with no image on it (the one at Shad Thames Plaza, northeast of Southwark). The achievement unlocked after doing that one, I don't know if I had forgotten it or not the first time I did the paste ups. Anyway, the counter is still stuck at 1900 so it likely doesn't matter.
Posted by BlackxRyan on 21 Jan 21 at 15:54
LFC JAY E 9193Done them all 3 times now and still no achievement. First time was doing ones I had left as I did some before with another character, 2nd time went over them all again with the same character but I used the fast travel between them and the 3rd time, I went over them all again with the same character but this time without fast travelling.
Still showing as locked on my achievements angry
Do you have to watch the cutscene after picking the tag or can you skip it, also i did the same tag for all of them

MattricusI only started playing the game two days ago so was playing a new game on top of any patches which have come out. I can give you the following facts from my playthrough which might answer some of the above points people are raising:

1. I was initially doing paste-ups as I encountered them in the world, across different game sittings. So the xbox was definitely turned on/off a fair few times!
2. I used at least 4 different operatives. One of which I retired before I had collected all of the paste-ups.
3. I collected some of them during missions, most in freeplay.

So in my opinion... it seems that recent patches have fixed the achievement to work in the way it should.

A tip I found really useful was to use a construction worker as you can just summon a construction drone and use that to fly around the area and quickly reach the paste-ups.
Posted by Mattricus on 17 Feb 21 at 01:08

BobLoblawI had done some previously, but I decided to do all of them in one go (even redo the ones I did earlier) and the achievement didn't unlock. This game is by far the most frustrating experience I've had in a game with achievements. What a waste of time!

TemppuliI dont know what you guys do wrong but for me this and all other achievements unlocked instantly. 0 bugs..

I used 3-4 different operatives, made always 1 paste when spotted 1 somewhere. After completing game i used this guide to find the ones i missed. Instant unlock.

P.S great guide man and thanks.

TandemSteam5828(For the comment above) - we do nothing wrong, some just don't pop. I have done well over 20 Parcel deliveries and it does not seem to pop. Checked the Ubisoft Connect counter and it says 19...The game has some jacked achievements and that's it. Some might have problems, others not.
Posted by TandemSteam5828 on 23 Mar 21 at 09:55
merschdawg06I think the issue lies with people who started to play the game before Ubisoft began patching things. I started playing on the release version of this game and the only way I could get this achievement to unlock is by starting a whole new game. Nothing I could do on my original save would unlock this achievement. I assume people who start the game fairly recently won't run into that many achievement bugs.
Posted by merschdawg06 on 23 Mar 21 at 14:40
scofitIn relation to what is wrong with the achievements I think also there is something to be said about Quick Resume. It you turn off the console and com back you need to make sure the game reconnects to UBISoft Servers otherwise its toast.

Thragg AvengerHad some issues with this one. It didn't pop when I had used multiple characters, and then initially didn't pop when I went round all of them with one character in a single session. Fully quit the game, and the next time I went in it popped immediately when the game loaded up.

OG SebiñoThis achievement popped for me only after closing and restarting the game, right after the loading screen. Possibly Quick Resume messed it up. I used several different characters and did not do all of the locations in one go, so that should not be an issue for anyone else hopefully.
