collectible indicators on the map

[c**k flavored lollipop]

Hi all,

I was trying to finish the level while collecting everything. Then I realized that sometimes the collectibles are indicated on the map with the legend like a lollipop and sometimes not. I've tried and it has nothing to do with whether me getting the level map or not. Can anyone tell me why?

You have to stealth kill a Kommandant to unlock the collectible locations

I wondered what triggered the pins to show on the map also.
So can you stealth kill them any way you like? Or does it have to be with the hatchet?

[BagelMaster5000]

I think it's only melee. I tried shooting them with a pistol and it didn't count

[Vrede]

Oh okay. I'm gonna try it out, thanks!

Holy cow how did you find this? Is it in the hint or tips somewhere?

Deductive reasoning I think.

It was mentioned in the original loading hints. The mechanic just carried over.

I want to get this straight so here's a couple of scenarios:

A stage/district has 3 commanders on it - Do I have to kill one or all to get the collectibles to show on map OR each one stealthiy killed revleas a certain part of the map only, in this particula case a third?

A stage/district with NO commanders - what then? Some commander-less stages are annoying to search for collectibles through.

I know this an older-ish thread. I have the same problem and I might have to disagree with some statements made here...Sometimes I start in a level, guns blazing and the POIs are there. On Venus for example, I stealth killed a kommandant and the POIs never appeared....something else must be going on......I know it worked like clockwork on W1 and Old blood....any ideas?

Hmm, I thought it had something to do with the maps you find.. Oh well

Nah. I think the map just removes the fow.....

The map sometimes reveals collectibles for me, and stealth killing commanders (whether with a hatchet or pistol) sometimes does. Could this mechanic be bugged, or could it simply require both to work?
