Wraithdagger Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 At 372 right now. I figure I get about 80 miles an hour so... 8 more hours to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cripplers Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 250. I'm already bored as hell and hate the AI drivers with a passion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neeker75 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Close to 200 miles. I need to complete the last mission and then start on driving the other 800. God I pray for strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JieXY Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 700. However the game starts to freeze more frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithdagger Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 I got up to 440 just now. Think i can get to 500 tonight then do the rest over the next 3-4 days. Also, check this link for tips to alleviate the freezing: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=258074 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo2k Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Done it. I hope I never trick myself into thinking 'this won't be that bad'. It was the bad and I just can't say no to myself haha. Good luck everyone, it's really the best 10G 'pop' you'll ever hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatar Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 By the docks. Close to the location where the police bus is for a mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOBY DA THUG Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 What I mean is how do you set it up to work on its own? And dont you run out of gas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatar Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 No the gas never goes out. I use the sticky tape method. I personally tape the left stick to the left and also tape the left trigger. So the car drive backwards in circles. When the fuel goes "out" the car become slower but still drives. Last night it drove for over 7 hours alone. A very slow method but you dont need to spend hours of playtime driving on the stupid highway and can use your freetime for real games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden1972 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 (edited) I'm at around 240 miles after a playthrough of the retail game and the DLC. However, I'm declaring the Explorer achievement a deliberate joke from the developers and I will not be the butt of it. Besides, my GS on this game is now a nice even 1200; it feels finished, enough for me, anyway, and I'd rather spend my time playing a new game than be someone's bread-crumb guinea pig. Time to send Mafia II back to Gamefly. It was a labor of love and fun to play, and I won't let prank achievements tarnish my memory of it.

RadiantViper Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Thanks to rubberbands, I'm at 592.60 miles. With a DLC "playtime" of 61 hours, 55 minutes and 28 seconds x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithdagger Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 Up to 626 miles. Hoping to pass 700 tonight. Maybe tomorrow I'll grind the rest out. Achievements like this are why I only play alot of games ONCE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure 2K learned their lesson. If they haven't I will uninstall the game and shelve the box, just like I did with RDR after patches proceded to BREAK the game rather than fix it.

Pyrochaos Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I honestly think they put this achievement in as a joke around the office saying Frank: "Those crazy kids on xbox live will do ANYTHING for an achievement, even if we put in a drive 1000 miles!" Bob: "I don't know about that Frank." Frank: "Well just put it in the game and find out." Bob: "Ok but only because I'm sleeping with your sister."

Wraithdagger Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Took all day, but I finally got this bullshit achievement. Didn't unlock the first time I went over, BUT I MADE A SAVE AT 995, then just drove across the bridge a few times. Unlocked the second time I went over. Ejected the disc after that. I'm done. Peace, fellow achievement hunters, and fuck you, 2K. Most expensive 10G ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatar Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 714 miles. Should reach the 1000 miles within the next 3 nights Lets see whats in the next DLC. Maybe walk 1000 miles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooljoe Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Finished it finally! It was a very monotonous task with quite a bit of freezing here and there. I have one tip for all people out there in case they didn't already know this. You can die after a lot of driving and than you will be automatically transported at the safehouse and you will keep your miles. Just let a cop kill you or jump over the eadge. This helped me completely eliminate freezing from gameplay. Especially if you keep going to the slower parts where the streets are to save after all your miles. Keep going!
