Trophy hunters rejoice — if you’re gunning for 100% completion in Watch Dogs, there are two notoriously tricky trophies you’ll need to tackle: ‘Traced’ and ‘Disk Space Full’. PS4 Trophies’ Brian has you covered with practical strategies, essential details, and a few warning notes to make sure your trophy hunt doesn’t turn into a tailspin. Here’s a deep breakdown of how to earn both trophies, efficiently and with minimal frustration.

How to Unlock the ‘Traced’ Trophy

This hidden trophy requires you to be tailed by other players five times. At first glance, it might sound simple, but due to Ubisoft’s server inconsistencies and the nature of online invasions, it can be surprisingly tricky.

Here’s how to force your way through it:

1. Disable Online Invasions Temporarily
   • Go into your Watch Dogs options menu.
   • Navigate to Online settings and disable Online Invasions.
   • Be aware: doing this will reset your notoriety skills, which is a minor setback but worth the trade for the trophy.
2. Re-enable Online Invasions
   • After disabling, wait for the game to save (you’ll see the save icon), then turn Online Invasions back on.
   • Now the system will treat you as a fresh target for other players. Within 10–15 minutes, you should begin receiving tailing invasions.
3. How to Know You’re Being Tailed
   • There’s no direct alert, but there are two clues:
     a) Pause the game — if the background is still moving, someone is in your session.
     b) You can check your players met screen after the encounter, which will log if someone recently tailed you.
4. Important: Do NOT profile the player before they start the observation process — it will void the tail. Let them begin tailing, then feel free to act (or just let it play out).
5. Repeat the Process
   • After every tail, disable and re-enable Online Invasions again to refresh your availability.
   • Be aware that sometimes you’ll get hacked instead. If so, repeat the process — either tail or hack will reset the cycle.

Do this five times and the Traced trophy will pop.

How to Unlock the ‘Disk Space Full’ Trophy

This trophy requires you to collect all 23 songs in the game’s media playlist. Some are acquired through story progression, others through hacking, and most via the SongSneak app. It’s a bit of a scavenger hunt, but once you know the categories, it becomes manageable.

Tracking Your Songs

• Use the Media app and select Edit Playlist to see your full list.
• By process of elimination, you can determine which songs you’re missing.

Song Categories and How to Get Them

1. Story-Unlocked Songs (3 total)
   • These are automatically added as you progress through the story.
   • The final story song unlocks during Mission 4 in Act 4.
2. Hacking Citizens (3 songs)
   • As you explore, profile civilians with the blue reticle. If one shows a song, hack them.
   • These three songs are exclusive to this method.
3. SongSneak App (17 songs)
   • Most songs are obtained by visiting various businesses and activating the SongSneak app (up on the D-pad).
   • Every shop in the game has a specific setlist, meaning you can only get certain songs in certain places.

Tips for Effective Collection

• Go to each location, open SongSneak, and let it listen to the music playing.
• If the song you need isn’t currently playing, wait until the current track ends — it will cycle to the next.
• Do not hack the music boxes. These only play songs you already own.

Example: Visit the coffee shop in Parker Square, which has a setlist that includes six songs, two of which are required for the trophy.

To streamline your efforts, Brian recommends checking out his website, PS4TrophiesGaming.com, where each song is listed alongside its corresponding location and setlist.

Final Advice

Trophies like Traced and Disk Space Full test your patience more than your skill, but with the right approach, they’re completely manageable. Follow the server reset technique for tailing, and be methodical about your song collection using the SongSneak app and media checklist.

Whether you’re pushing for platinum or just rounding out your collection, take your time, follow the steps, and happy hunting!
