Missing "All the King's Men" challenge on Isle of Sgail?

[unsigned float]

As in the title.
The "Making Waves" challenge appears to be missing as well.
Also: I'm unable to cause the knights to spawn after clearing the map of all NPCs.

I wasn't able to find discussion of this in the forum list (checked 5 pages, didn't see anything relevant).

Might want to read up on the notes from the recent update applied.

Never mind, didn't read the Feb. update. My bad.
Edit: Would still like "kill-them-all" to start the knight battle, though. Shame I missed out on that. This was my least favorite map until I read about that easter egg...

You can still trigger the easter egg, there's just no challenge leading up to it

Hasn't happened the 3 times I cleared the map. Is there a list of prerequisites?

I just did it again today and they spawn.

Either you have never actually "killed everyone" on the map or it requires the knights armor to be worn (which is how I do it and was also the easy way to complete those challenges before they were removed)

I didn't kill anyone until I had the armor suit on, then grabbed the broadsword off the wall, killed everyone up top. Moved down a floor and took the axe, killed everyone from there down to the museum. Took the katana and then just shot and sliced my way through the rest of the map until everyone was 100% dead

Once the compromised/searching message goes away you'll likely get body found notifications as the new guards spawn in and start searching (you won't be compromised to them until they see you)

There's not very many of them, contrary to false posts they are not infinite spawn. I probably should have counted them but it feels like around 10 or so is all that spawn. They have no idea where you are and unless they wander off dragging bodies most will be in and around the knights armor hiding spots (there's a challenge to blend in on every knight plinth). If you've done "none shall pass"those armor stands are where you should go looking for the spawned guards if they haven't started moving around (due to finding bodies)

If you aren't near -1,920,000 in non-target kill penalties, you've never killed the entire map:

Unless they are activated by seeing you or a body they will just stand there near a knight plinth doing nothing, like this:

Beyond that they are just guards in armor that you can't knock out:

Guess I missed one or two? Last I got was around -1'900'000.
Not sure if its relevant, but I've been stuffing the constant into a box (almost always from-the-front knockout because I'm in a hurry). The comments I've read elsewhere seem to indicate this doesn't matter...

Does the knight armor make you invincible?

[Captain Stitch]

somebody might said it already but I think they removed some challenges because they encouraged you to murder innocent ppl :D i mean Like that would stop Terrorist 47 from murdering a whole map ,aye?

That would be in the patch notes, but that really has nothing to do with the easter egg

No

But it does increase the number of bullets you can take before death (either way you can regen back to full health if you stop being shot, with or without the armor)

You also have the drawbacks of: Not being able to crouch, not being able to press against walls to corner shoot, not being able to use a ladder or climb things

I shoved him in a box just so I wouldn't accidentally kill him or have him run away, I don't think he has anything to do with that event other than you'll fail the mission if he dies or escapes
