There are a couple of "collectible" categories to hunt down in Battlefield Hardline: pieces of Evidence which are used to complete assorted Case Files, and special suspects that need to be tracked down and arrested. If you'd rather avoid having to play through the campaign a second time, but want to bag the Achievements and Trophies associated with these extra investigations, take a look through our stage-by-stage guide to finding every last hidden object and suspect.
