o D M C o Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) I thought I was well on my way to grabbing this one but now I know its gonna be the biggest pain in the arse. From what I can gather, for this achievement you have to execute all 40 (yes 40) hit types during rampage games. There are 10 types of impact (that I know of); head on, shunt, side swipe, bash, t-bone, slam, strike, barge, overhead and headshot. Each has 4 degrees of severity; light, heavy, brutal and insane. In addition there are rewards (not sure if they count) for first blood, wrecked leader, terminal slam and 360. It sounds ok until you realise that to get a headshot, you have to hit the underside of a car that is lay on its side, and to get an overhead you have to hit the top of a car. I dont know if overhead can be done when a car is lay on its side, but the only time I was awarded one was when by a mil to one chance a car hit me and somehow flipped me in the air, I landed on the roof of another car and got a headshot. Overheads may be boostable with a partner, if he parks under the starting ramp for you and lets you jump into him. However, as there is no reliable way to flip opposition cars, I can only imagine how long its gonna take to get all 4 different types of headshot. So like I said in the title... nightmare. If you have a type of crash not listed please say, because it could then be that you dont need to do all 4 degrees of severity, which would explain why I still havent unlocked the achievement.

Barad Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Didn't realise some of the hit types on this game would be so annoying, will have to see when I play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 i think theres one called low blow too, ive seen it during a race one time, anyone who can help me get this achievement it would be much appreciated, i have 31 out of 49 so far so doing pretty well, anyone know how to get the 'Running the Show' (Dominate a friend in Challenge mode) one?

donut77 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I am quite sure you don't need the different severity ratings, as I have only done 1 low blow and one headshot, and the achievement popped as soon as I did the headshot as it was the only one I hadn't done.

o D M C o Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks so much for the reply, how on earth do you do a low blow though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donut77 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I got a low blow when a car was rolled onto its side and I rammed the underside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o D M C o Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Weird thats exactly how I got a headshot, thanks Ill give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donut77 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I'm going to try a bit of split screen tonight to try and recreate some of the harder hit types, might use a second profile to try and get the achievement to pop again as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingardo Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 how do you check how many of each type you've done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o D M C o Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) You cant, just write a list of the 11 crash types; 1. Head on 2. Shunt 3. Side swipe 4. T-Bone 5. Bash 6. Slam 7. Strike 8. Barge 9. Overhead 10. Headshot 11. Low blow When you get them all your achievement will unlock. Fortunately it appears you dont need to get a light, heavy, brutal and insane impact for each collision type, but this is still a pain. All these occur pretty frequently, although Im not sure what the difference between a bash, a slam and a barge is. No need to worry about 1-8 though as you'll get them long before numbers 9, 10 and 11. Ive now played well over 100 games of Rampage and I still havent seen a low blow. Im sure lots of ppl will get all these in a few games, for some it could take forever Edited May 24, 2012 by o D M C o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 hitman have you managed to get this achievement yet? maybe we can help each other out in an online session, im on course to get every other achievement in the game except this one, think i need 9 to 11 on your list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uber Tel Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I did this in public lobby last night wasn't even going for it. So it will come after time. I only need lvl 20, lvl 30, upgrade all cars and find all hidden packages... No way should this be a full retail game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Badger Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Not going to hear the end of you getting that achievement last night am i Tel ? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 must be an easy way of doing it online where you can flip over a car onto its side etc to help boost this achievement, if anyone has worked out a method to doing this please tell me, i think ive got headshot and overhead at one point and just need the lowblow one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArShAvln Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Its easy achievement, i got it lucky, just playining World Tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o D M C o Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 'Its easy... I got lucky', bit of a contradiction there really. Like I said above its one of those that some people will get quickly, for others its gonna be a pain in the arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinworldwide Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) A friend told me this one is cumulative. Have i been right assuming it is or do all these crashes have to be done in the same event? Edited May 25, 2012 by robinworldwide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uber Tel Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 A friend told me this one is cumulative. Have i been right assuming it is or do all these crashes have to be done in the same event? The Cheev popped for me after my second hit in an event so its most definately cumulative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uber Tel Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 So you'd rather it have 400G instead of 1000G im surprised to hear that from someone who clearly loves gamerscore? My retail comment wasn't regarding GS, I would have been far happier with Showdown being a very good add-on rather than a slight freshen up of dirt 3. add-on 1600mp - £11.43 game - £30+ Plus Dirt 3 took longer to clock, i played it for a month or so where as showdown looks to be on course for a week. I can see Codemasters bringing out DLC for this tho so time will tell (Outbreak anyone???). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got it on rent from my blockbusters online rental plan. So the cost doesn't bother me its the only way i can afford to play all the new titles lol. just sucks that im gonna have to shell out 800MS for the online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping for Outbreak DLC why get rid of the best game mode from 3 lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
