Creasy47 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hopefully once I finish the storyline, I can go back and Gold Medal all the S&F's that way I don't need to work with so many long Story missions! I'd love to have everything Single Player related done by next Tuesday when the Online launches...but at this rate...I doubt it. My thoughts exactly. I collected all the letters today, but I've had to take a break from the game and get back to BF3 - I was just getting so burned out. I sat here for about 12 to 14 hours a day, three days straight, with non-stop GTA IV. Tomorrow I'm going to get the alien space ship parts and maybe I'll try to knock out the sea collection achievement (the waste). After that, I'll get all the requirements for 100%, beat the game so I have it, and then focus on getting all Golds so I have no SP achievements left come next Tuesday, as I'll solely be focusing on enjoying Online and playing the BF4 beta.

I am going to get everything done before I try anymore as I have had cars disappear and even current ongoing strangers and friends missions restart, which was very annoying when I had to start Kifflom over again.

I need to speed my progress up. I'm hoping my schedule falls like this: Tuesday: TP Arms Industries + (other side achievements) + Bridges/Knifes Wednesday: Stunts + UFO Parts Thursday: Letters + Nuclear Waste Friday - Sunday: Finish everything else + Gold Medals Really hope I can finish the 665:gsicon: of Single Player before Tuesday as well!! I would definitely wait before replaying missions. I am going to get everything done before I try anymore as I have had cars disappear and even current ongoing strangers and friends missions restart, which was very annoying when I had to start Kifflom over again. Yeah, that's a good idea. Hopefully they won't be too bad going back to and I can easily Gold Medal 'em in just one attempt to save time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DESTRO5 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 It doesn't seem to tedious compared to previous games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggD Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 It doesn't seem to tedious compared to previous games. Previous GTA games didn't have Gold Medals...? The Ballad of Gay Tony did...but there were only like 15 missions anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem is I get wrapped up in playing Battlefield 3 or I switch back to get some Vegas 1 achievements (damn my new profile, I already had 900+ on this a few years ago) and I just don't play GTA V. I would have almost everything done now if I had stuck with GTA V entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuSt BLaZe Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) Mission: The Civil Border Patrol (Triggered by Trevor) Mariachi My Ride - Steal the band's Tornado after stunning them Stop the Music - Stop the ban within 40 secons Typo yo but don't call me the grammar nazi haha!

x Jecht x Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 For any mission where there are no set requirements (bonuses do not count) it is an automatic gold for completion. This leads me to believe that for doing the trafficing missions I have gained an extra 10 gold medals... But when going down my missions list and my strangers/freaks list I count 66 golds... So surely I should have the achievement by now if Trevor's delivery missions count? :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgmuffin Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 (edited) For now I'm going down the list of story missions, getting gold on everything, but "Bugstars Equipment" (smart Jewel Store Job preparation) won't load. It just sits at a black screen with the spinning thing in the corner until I dashboard :/ I only tried twice, but I'm paranoid it could corrupt a save or something. Has this happened to anyone else? Edit: Tried a third time, this time waiting ~8 minutes before dashboarding. Obviously it's not a huge deal, but I was looking forward to seeing solid gold medals on the top 16 missions Edited September 25, 2013 by Dawgmuffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creasy47 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I just went through and got Gold on a few 'Strangers & Freaks' missions after getting all the space ship parts. Just wanted to break up the monotony of collectible searching, and now, I think I'll save getting gold for very last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhunterrrr Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 So, have the arms trafficking missions definitely been confirmed to count towards gold? I have 37 without, 47 with. It would be nice to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to know! I just got the achievement (And 665 gamerscore now!), and I can confirm, as I always assumed, that Trevor's trafficking missions do not count. I had to get 70 gold medals that actually appeared in the replay menu, then ended up getting another before the achievement popped during the post-result loading screen. My guess is you just have to finish another mission for the game to realize you have 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wampus Cra Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Anyone having an issue with the quest about the architect plans getting a gold? Ive done it at 45 seconds even and it wont give me gold... does it have to be under 45 seconds? Seems like theres other requirements this isn't showing besides just completing within 45 seconds or under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slackydave Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Thanks for this, imo some of these are gonna be pretty annoying to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavel Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 (edited) The Merryweather Heist - Freighter Approach Does this counts as two golds after you replay the mission with other approach, or the game counts only first one, who you choose? I'm around 60 golds now and only 225G. Think i'll get the gold achievement before anything else. I love that the whole world is unlocked from beginning and you are free to explore, without the need to constantly do story missions to unlock other parts, like the old GTA games. Thanks for this, imo some of these are gonna be pretty annoying to get. Just do as much Strangers & Freaks missions as possible. Not that the main strory ones are tough, but they are much longer.

Seems like theres other requirements this isn't showing besides just completing within 45 seconds or under. Has to be under. As soon as the guy tosses you a hard hat, run up and kill/punch the architect and then run away. I did it in 13 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartbreakRidge Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I'm a little confused - who exactly has to be killed to get the No Survivors checkmark for Trevor Philips? Looking at videos it does not appear to be literally everybody, but it's not clear to me who counts and who doesn't. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seven43861 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 (edited) How do you complete the interrogation without Mr. K's heart stopping?

xhunterrrr Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Can you complete mission 69 and 70 if you complete 71 first (AKA can I get gold in those two missions if I go with 71 for my ending)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
