thenut Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I just watched that, I am not following. Is it because that area is so high up? If so, where is that at, I am not immediately recognizing it. The Driving High achievement is just to be in the car while driving 115 feet high or more. That particular area in the video is in the mountains by Diaz and his stadium chop shop in Los Muertos. Personally, I bring people to Romanova for the Driving High achievement. The big wrestler lady in the Volk quarry not far from tunnel 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meshuggah Posted May 13, 2007 Author Share Posted May 13, 2007 Thanks for the vid. I didn't recognize those pillars/hidden orb, but I got the achievement (Y). I started doing that infinite jump thing, and the next thing I know, I'm killing all the bosses and beating the game in an hour and a half..... Hah, now I remember why I loved this game so much.

bdsams Veteran Posted May 13, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 13, 2007 i still cant get the freaking shot-putter achievement, i think my game is borked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistical Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I'm still trying to get the achievement for being in a car 115 feet up. I would have sworn the building I was on would have been tall enough, but nothing. Also, what does the lobber do exactly? It just seems like a dull rocket to me. I just watched that, I am not following. Is it because that area is so high up? If so, where is that at, I am not immediately recognizing it. If you want to get it the easy way, just take a car into Cowell's tower (in Shai Gen) and you'll get the achievement as you are in the car going up the elevator. i still cant get the freaking shot-putter achievement, i think my game is borked There are many ways to get. I got this by taking an object (you cannot to use a grenade) onto the top of the dome in Shai Gen and throwing it. You could also climb the agency tower till you find something to throw off as well.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted May 13, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 13, 2007 Infinite Jumping via Keys to the City. That is such a cool idea lol, great video. You can get under the city map by spawning a ramp truck infront of you as you drive. The collision throws you under :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 13, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 13, 2007 I will ask again since posts tend to get lost pretty easily in this thread, is anyone around Sunday of Mother's Day (May 13th) anywhere between lets say 12-3 in the afternoon Eastern Time US that has this Premium New Content and who is down to play some CoOp?? This way I can decide wether to buy it or not? :p The truth is I probably will buy it anyway, I have already added the points to my account to do so, but it would just be nice to give it a whirl really quick.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 13, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 13, 2007 Sorry man, even though you added me, I'll be at work all morning and afternoon tomorrow. Cmon bro, no need to say sorry. You have to pay the bills! Another time for sure. Like I said, I had no clue at all you were not already on my list, I just thought you never played on Live. ;) I should most likely be available so you can try it out and decide. Cool. Much appreciated. I just sent you a friend request, so I definitely may take you up on the offer. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive tried all these! Ive thrown the light bulb off the agency tower, thrown the body of the shei-gen tower, thrown bodies off of bridges into the water! nothing :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What level are you? I have not bothered to read anywhere on what minimum level you need to be at but I was at level 4 when I got this achievement.

What level are you? I have not bothered to read anywhere on what minimum level you need to be at but I was at level 4 when I got this achievement. I got it at two. Here's a trick for the guy who's having trouble: not sure if they changed this since any of the updates, but I got the achievement just by throwing an object from off the top of a building and letting it land in the water.... then I stayed near that area, waited for the object to float a little way away, and ta da.

thenut Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 You can go to many places, I just prefer outdoor places because then I can still jump around and climb over things in the SUV instead of just sitting in an elevator. To each his own. ;) I have every achievement now except Street Racer and Street Racer Elite. Those modes aren't very fun to me but I'm sure I'll get them asap.

Glorious Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 The new content is great :D already got the psychotic (2 hours in co-op with a friend :p) and some others. I'll need to do the street racing when I get round to it to. I still haven't got all the agility orbs yet (466) and I have plenty of hidden to find but the game is keeping me interested still.

mistical Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I have every achievement now except Street Racer and Street Racer Elite. Those modes aren't very fun to me but I'm sure I'll get them asap. Set up road blocks with the big cement block arrows around most corners and then wait till they come around for their first lap and shoot at their tanks with your pistol to blow them up and out of the race. Then when it's only you left, just finish the race. It's very easy to get the Street Racer achievement, do this with the first cars of each race. It will take a little longer and maybe a little frustrating too then finish the rest of the 30 cars by doing it that way too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park it near the beginning of the race and then hit the back button and restart the race. The Supercar will still be there. Just leave your car and get in. Now you can shoot all the cars for an easy win.?After?you?win,?get?out.?Start?the?race?with?the?next?car?and?it's?still?there,?repeat.?The?only?time?you?need?to?go?and?get?the?Supercar?again?is?when?you?:part?a?new?level?or?it?blows?up?:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Y) Is it just me, or are the Street Racer races pretty hard just on Normal? I picked the first one, first car and agency race car, and either kept getting rammed at one point and taken to far out or just flat out beat. Supercar here I come.

It's not just you, the races themselves (tracks) aren't that hard, its the damned vehicles u need to do it with to get the Elite achievement that I found difficult.....and most of the time if the car in 1st position gets to far from you, its almost always near impossible to catch him, they seem to race a perfect race when u cant see them, but if he is in sight, u can normally catch him pretty easy......and watch out for invisible debris which makes ur car go 50 feet into the air! oh, and Le Megre (or however its spelt) is probably the most annoying track :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
