In Nowhere Left to Run, when you’re interrogating Qasim at the end, you need to ask him “Who is Arash meeting with”, when given a list of dialogue options, and then capture him when you trap him on the Amsterdam rooftop.
Brick in the Wall evidence locations
In Brick in the Wall, you have to accept the optional mission from Greta in the bar to rescue or silence the informant. Then down where the informant is being held, grab the Operation Chaos evidence on the desk where the guard was sat.
The second piece of evidence in this mission is right at the end when you’re infiltrating Kraus’s house. Once inside, don’t tranquilize his wife, but sneak upstairs and enter the master bedroom. The evidence is in the bedside table drawer.
Redlight, Greenlight evidence locations
In Redlight, Greenlight, when you’re traveling down the fabricated Main Street in the Soviet base, head into the building on the right with the sign that says ‘60 Min Photo’ and move upstairs. Kill the general in the far corner and then take a picture of the map on the wall to get this piece of evidence. There are six pieces of evidence in this mission but you don’t need them all for the clue — just keep an eye out for the ‘In Objective Area’ markers when you’re exploring.
Echoes of a Cold War evidence location
In Echoes of A Cold War, once you take out the snipers outside the satellite building and drop inside, this cassette is on a table in the middle of the room, near to a body with a crossbow bolt which you can examine.
Desperate Measures evidence location
In Desperate Measures, following the briefing with Gorbachev, head downstairs and disable the cameras. Then you’ll be tasked with finding a bunker key. Ignore this main objective for now and look around the rooms. The evidence can spawn in a variety of locations, but I found mine in the Data Entry room near the top right, on the table in the back office. You need to pick a lock quickly and then take down the guard and hide the body to secure it, as it’s in a restricted area.
With that, you now know all of the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War evidence locations and will soon have every piece of important evidence, enough to access the two campaign side missions and complete their objectives without anything going wrong.
