Question about secret places / quest master

[who sh☹t Marvin?]

I've found a lot of secrets, however, I think there are more than these so if you are aware of other ones, please let me know and I will put them into my guide, which you can check here:

About the quest master thing, does anyone has a checklist of this? Do you need to talk to the npcs first? Does it even matter how you solve them? For example you can get quests like talk to XY after interacting with specific people, but these are fairly optional since you can just walk right up to your main targets without knowing who you are looking for in the first place. Honestly, I'm not even sure you can this legitimately at the moment, since many quests are rather glitchy.

Hey thanks for doing a guide showing the ones you found. Can't think of any more I found besides these.
Did you get the explorer achievement by collecting all these in one playthrough?

In the same boat as you with the Quest Master one. I think I completed everything but nothing popped up. Probably broken atm

I did not get it. It might be broken but I really think there are more secrets than the ones I covered. There were 2 of them which I could 're-discover' with the prompt popping up too doing a quicksave/quickload while standing before the closed doors. You can do this with the trainyard big container (Trainyard #2) one and the last one in Radio City before entering the Kingpin's tower but it might work with other ones too, I haven't tested this yet.

Do you have to complete "Explorer" and "Quest Master" in one run? Or is it counted globally across all saves/profiles?

In one run I beleive.

I'm trying to note down all secrets on my end too, looks like we've got all the same ones (21) - yet haven't got an achievement for it. So, more searching if it ain't broken!

For RC Pawn-o-Matic, just retrace to the shop before leaving the level via the elevator and you'll find that it is then open.

Thank you for your help. Yeah like I implied before with the re-discovered ones, the counter may glitch out if you reload the save, I dunno.

I give up... after 4 playthroughs of wall hugging, also only got the 21 secrets, so tried to be clever and installed OG Kingpin so I could turn on Noclip and just phase through map and look for anything out of the ordinary, and couldn't find a damn thing in the whole game.
So either the whole thing is bugged or there is maybe 1 secret in the whole game left, maybe some NPC interaction? (anyone check if anything happens if you can't afford bars/skytram ticket?)

Here's a hint: The secret is not buying this game.

Not to put a damper on things, but I think it's a wild-goose chase considering how broken this release is.

[DoNDaPpA]

Okay, so I’ve also got all of these (21 secrets) in a single play through and like yourselves haven’t got the achievement.

I’ve played through 8 times now and the only place I could potentially see ‘secret 22’ could be in the same place as ‘poisonville secret are #3’ where the guy is trying to kill you with a flamethrower and there’s a crack in the wall that reveals 3 armour crates.

In this area there is a large door that when you approach and try to open it make the ‘locked door’ noise. I noticed this when I was playing through on hardcore but didn’t get the opportunity to investigate further.

I know for a fact that at that point you could potentially have ‘fingers’ the safe cracker who could open this door providing he doesn’t engage in fighting flamethrower guy!

I will try to get round to trying this tomorrow but if someone beats me to it, please post it this works.

Hopefully this will crack the secrets achievement.

[who sh☹t Marvin?]

I'm pretty sure that's the door Nikki escapes through in the cutscene but I will try to get it unlocked with Fingers like you advised.

Well it seems it's just impossible to get Fingers even near the door. He either gets roasted by Nikki in an instant or tries to blast him with his dual pistols ignoring your commands completely.

[JohnOfNoTrade]

Agreed about the door... same thing with the final boss and the "roof access" door, it's actually just there for the cinematic (Nocliped through both in OG Kingpin and there's nothing there)

It's only broken if there's only 21 secrets

My guess is someone forgot to add the "secret found" event in one of the areas that would act as one and trigger it. Could be wrong ofc!

You would be both wrong and right, in that order, at the same time!

I checked out the videos linked above and I didn't see the elusive secret

Thanks for sharing this.
I had no idea about that Skidrow one all this time and i always as a habit try and backtrack at the start of a game ever since Mario had it as an easter egg!

I didn't think to whack the fence.
