Datavault Completion
If you "complete" a datavault, will all it's doors be open? I find I'm looking for more red panels than may actually be.

you will know when you have solved a data vault puzzle, claimed its inventory container and the data leak.

the vault will literally turn grey on your map.

If you complete all the vaults without dying hero film it.

Already died once. There an achievement for it?

you will become a historian... like literally.. thats the achievement for unlocking all timeline entries.

and with only 1.1% of all players having unlocked this achievement yet.. its also a rare one.

It also helps that unlocks carries over through multiple games so you only have to do it once for achievement.

Challenge acquired.

its not a challenge... i honestly think most are just too lazy to find them... and only get the achievement.. nothing more... not even a ship.. just the steam achievement (and a full timeline).

I see. I'm kind of a completionist so on my 1st "complete" playthrough, I'll try for all the acheesements.

Interesting, so I've found two. Both remain blue on the map, but the objective via the mission gave me credit so not sure what to think. I just came back to the 2nd one and it had one more panel that was red. I opened the last hatch and nothing else. I did loot one container and timeline unlock with both of them. You sure they turn grey?

they should turn from a blue color when untouched to a greyish white when the leak is gone.

i have to admit, i haven't touched the vaults in 2 years, and i don'T know if anyting changed regarding their coloration in those 2 years.

I would just put a nav beacon or something like a satellite there.

This way you can keep track of which ones you done already.
It can get confusing once you get to 20+ if you don't
