Sneaky detective tricks

[Fireslide]

Some misc somewhat exploitable tricks I've discovered that help.

For single occupant dwellings. Knock on the door, as they unlock it, barge in. It will knock them unconscious and you can poke around their house. Very helpful when apprehending the murderer. Also helpful in general when trying to fight or when trapped in a house.

To access crime scenes, unscrew light fixtures, turn off lights. Enforcers will walk to turn them back on.

To get someone out of a building to talk to them without trespassing, you can pick up a trash can and throw it on the ground a few times, lots of nearby people will come to investigate.

If you inspect someone, pin the unknown citizen to the board, then ask them who that person is, they'll say "It's me" as a way to get their name

If you get the a crime scene in a building and the security door is down because you got there fast. Take pictures of anyone you see. They are probably the guilty suspect.

I can add to this list of cheese.

When photographing someone or pickpocketing, be stealthed. As mentioned above, you can unscrew bulbs and as long as the game considers it dark, you can stealth really easily even if it's still very bright to you.

When tailing someone, just hold up a newspaper. It's a free pass to spin circles around them thanks to the "hiding" buff. Does not work when trespassing sadly.

Running with a weapon, in this case a sword, does more damage.

Knocking someone over with a heavy object, like ballistic armor, for some reason usually won't piss the victim off. Will piss off bystanders, though.

You can ask someone for their fingerprints multiple times for free. Usually on the fourth time they'll agree.

And still sort of testing this one, you might be able to stack objects to block line of sight.

Getting Frame- SyncDisk and upgrading it makes you much harder to notice, especially by cameras, because you can hide behind furniture while standing. It has an drawback that you can't see inside of a top drawer and some surfaces are harder to climb or reach.

Getting Frame+ at max upgrade makes you bang your head on a door frame, so you have to crouch every time you enter or exit rooms. But you can reach all the vents all the time, even on a ceiling, making swift escapes and enters much easier. Somehow doesn't affect how easy you are to notice.
