Introduction

Welcome to The Amazing Spider-Man 2 achievement guide. This is a nice little movie tie-in and quite an easy game to complete. Like any other Spider-Man games there are some collectables to find, but not as many as the first Amazing Spider-Man game. Everything is pretty straight forward, but a bit of grinding out XP will be required for the completion.

 

Story Mode

For starters I want to highly recommend that you switch suits once the one you're wearing is maxed out. This will save you a lot of time when you go for the grind of maxing out all the suits. Keeping your Hero status up will get you more XP.

 

Start out Super Hero difficulty. The game isn't all that hard so you might as well only do one playthrough. Just don't change the difficulty until AFTER you've completed the story. There are only 14 main missions, straight forward and fairly short.

 

Collectables

There aren't nearly as many collectables as the first Amazing Spider-Man game, and even then you don't necessarily have to collect them all. There are only 5 within story missions and 5 within the open city for the "Lover" achievement. The only other collectable you'll need are the comic pages. There are 300 but you'll only need 285 for the achievement. Once you fully upgrade Spider Sense these will show up on your mini map and you'll be able to find them easier while in Spider Sense.

 

Side Missions

You can do side missions in between story missions or after you complete story mode. If you're having trouble with any of the side missions, save them after you complete story mode. You can lower the difficulty and it will not affect any of the side mission achievements. There are some side missions that aren't linked to achievements and I'd advise to just stay away from them as they don't really offer much XP. The ones you'll want to do are:

 

Building on Fire Situations: 10

Deadlock Situations: 10

Petty Crime Situations: 10

Rescue Situations: 10

 

Combat Challenges: All 12 (found in the comic shop)

Hideouts: All 5

Photo Investigations: All 30

Races: All 15

 

Maxing Out All Suits

This is really tedious as you won't even have half of the suits upgraded once you're done with the story and the required side missions. Luckily you can load up the last chapter and grind out the needed XP. See "Ultimate Spider-Man" for the specific details.

 

Conclusion

The game is fairly easy and quite fun. Just remember to change suits once you max one out, try to keep your Hero status up, and do NOT change the difficulty until after you've completed story mode.

Completed the game on Super Hero difficulty

 

If you start and complete the game on Super Hero difficulty, the two lower difficulty achievements will stack also. You'll also earn "Now It Is Over" for defeating the final boss.

 

You cannot lower the difficulty mid-game and change it back again to earn the higher level difficulty achievements. The game will warn you of this if you try to change the difficulty.

Collected all Spider-Man comic books

 

There are 300 comic pages in the game, but you only need to find 285 to complete all the comic books. This may seem like a lot, but most are in the open on top of buildings, are easier to see at night, and once you've fully upgraded Spider-Sense these will show up on the mini map.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87786-lo.jpg I'm on a Roll 15:gsicon:

Achieved a combo streak of 42

 

If you're in an area with a lot of enemies and you mind your dodges, this should come within the story. An easy way that I found was during a petty crimes task. I defeated all of the enemies but one and tapped http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/rb.png for a Web-Strike. Wait a bit and do another Web-Strike. Rinse and repeat. You can keep doing this until you get to 42 without finishing off the enemy. I did this before I completely upgraded the Web-Strike, so it's not certain if that has any affect or not.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87787-lo.jpg Stay Down! 10:gsicon:

Performed 15 signature moves

 

See "Master of the Web"

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87788-lo.jpg Breaker 10:gsicon:

Destroyed 20 body armors

 

This will come naturally through story progression. Using the ionic web is the fastest way to destroy armor. Just tap http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/button-b.png a few times and the armor will deteriorate.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87789-lo.jpg Know Your Enemies 15:gsicon:

Unlocked all character bios

 

This is basically story-related. Once the game is over and after the credits have rolled, you'll get another cut scene. After the cut scene is over the achievement will pop.

 

This achievement has been reported to be glitchy. I recommend NOT skipping the credits and NOT skipping the after-credits cut scene to ensure it'll pop once you continue the game.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87790-lo.jpg Reporter 15:gsicon:

Completed all photo challenges

 

There are 30 Photo Investigations. These are extremely easy and quick to complete and there are only 3 types of photo challenges that you'll need to photograph and are associated with 3 other achievements.

 

1. "Special Agent" - there will be two guys in suits you'll need to photograph

2. "Investigator" - there will be a cop with a laptop, just photograph the laptop

3. "Hunter of Killers" - there will be a cop over a body, you'll need to find Cletus Kasady's initals "C.K." on a nearby wall to photograph

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87791-lo.jpg All Tied Up 25:gsicon:

Defeated 50 enemies by performing stealth takedowns

 

A stealth takedown is performed by tapping http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/lb.png when close enough to an enemy without then noticing you. They'll have a purple glow when they are able to be stealthly taken down. Using only stealth takendowns on the hideouts are basically required, so you should get these by completing the hideouts if you don't use them anywhere else during the story.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87793-lo.jpg Drop It! 30:gsicon:

Disarmed 50 enemies

 

Pretty simple, just tap http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/lb.png to disarm an enemy with a weapon. Just do this to 50 enemies with weapons and the achievement is yours.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87801-lo.jpg Now It Is Over 30:gsicon:

Defeated Carnage

 

Story-related and cannot be missed.

 

See "Super Hero"

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87802-lo.jpg Fashionista 20:gsicon:

Unlocked all suits

 

There are 13 suits in total you'll need for this achievement.

 

3 suits are given to you at the start of the game.

2 suits are story-related and are given to you for defeating Black Cat and Carnage.

6 suits are awarded for completing the story hideout and the 5 optional hideouts.

1 suit is awarded for completing all 15 races.

1 suit is awarded for completing all 12 combat challenges.

 

You will also earn the "State of the Art" achievement for collecting all the concept art while completing these. You'll unlock all of the concept art by completing 11 races and 11 combat challenges.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87803-lo.jpg Infiltration 20:gsicon:

Completed all hideouts

 

These will show up as a purple eye icon on the map. There are only 5 hideouts and are fairly simple to complete. I recommend being stealthy and work on your stealth takedowns. If you're awareness bar fills you'll fail and have to restart.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87804-lo.jpg Luchador! 15:gsicon:

Completed all combat challenges

 

Once you get to the comic book store with Stan you'll have the opportunity to "play" the arcade game in the store. There are 12 challenges to complete, each with 4 stages. Some have stipulations, but they aren't too hard. Also some have a surprise round that really doesn't affect if you pass or fail the stage, but only extra XP.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87805-lo.jpg Can't Hit Me 20:gsicon:

Achieved 30 multidodges

 

You can only multidodge when two enemies are attacking you at the same time. To dodge one attacker, you tap http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/button-y.png. To perform a multidodge, naturally you double tap http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/button-y.png. You should get this naturally while playing through the story. If not, you can grind these out in the same location described in "Ultimate Spider-Man".

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87806-lo.jpg Timing Is Everything 20:gsicon:

Achieved 100 critical hits

 

A critical hit is performed by following an attack with another attack. You'll have to tap http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/button-x.png when the first attack hits your opponent. You'll know when you've performed this correctly when Spider-Man's hands and feet have a red glow about them. If you spam http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/button-x.png while fighting you should get this naturally. If not, you can grind these out in the same location described in "Ultimate Spider-Man".

Defeated 100 enemies

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87809-lo.jpg Heavyweight Champion 20:gsicon:

Defeated 500 enemies

 

This may not come before you finish the story, but it'll come when grinding the XP to max out all the suits.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87810-lo.jpg Hero of the People 30:gsicon:

Saved 50 civilians

 

This will come naturally while completing the fire situations and rescue situations. If not just complete a few more until it pops.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87811-lo.jpg Ultimate Spider-Man 30:gsicon:

Reached maximum levels for all suits

 

The maximum level for each suit is 8. This will be a long grind. Even after switching suits once they were maxed out while playing through story mode I only had 4 suits maxed out. See the video below for a good place to grind out the XP. Replay the last story mission "Maximum Carnage" until you get to the part where you have to save Menken. Use the fully upgraded Seismic Blast to knock out the enemies and quickly perform finishers on as many as you can. Repeat until you've defeated them all. Make sure that you're not within the circle when you defeat the last guy or you'll get to a save point. Once you get the XP for the fight, reload the save and you'll start back at the beginning of the fight.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87812-lo.jpg State of the Art 20:gsicon:

Unlocked all concept art

 

See "Fashionista"

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87813-lo.jpg True Hero 20:gsicon:

Heroism to the maximum

 

This is pretty simple. Once you're allowed to to side missions, complete a few to raise your hero level. Once you fill up the 3 bars, you'll achieve maximum hero status and unlock the achievement.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87814-lo.jpg Enforcer 15:gsicon:

Completed 10 deadlock situations

 

Look for the gun icon on the map and you'll have to land on the helicopter to start the side mission. This will be a shootout against 12-15 enemies and the police. They will be concentrated on the police so getting a lot of stealth takedowns will be easy, but not necessary. Take out all of the enemies to complete the mission. Just complete 10 of these for the achievement.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87815-lo.jpg Fireman 15:gsicon:

Completed 10 building on fire situations

 

These are the fire icons on the map. You'll have to land on the fire truck to start it. For these you'll have to locate 2-5 civilians in a burning building and bring them back one at a time to the safe zone.

 

These are timed and can be somewhat challenging on Super Hero difficulty. You can change the difficulty to make any of the side missions easier. Only change the difficulty AFTER you've completed the story. Changing the difficulty only affects difficulty related achievements.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87816-lo.jpg Guardian Angel 15:gsicon:

Completed 10 rescue situations

 

These are a person icon on the map. For these all you have to do is help a trapped civilian and take them to the hospital. That's it.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87817-lo.jpg Vigilante 15:gsicon:

Completed 10 petty crime situations

 

These are the fist icon on the map and consists of 2-5 thugs to defeat. These are easy and if you've fully upgraded the seismic blast these will be even easier. Just blast them all and perform a signature move to all of them while they're knocked out.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87818-lo.jpg Fast-Tracker 15:gsicon:

Completed 5 races

 

For this achievement you only need to finish 5 of the 15 races, but you'll have to complete all 15 for one of the suits for "Fashionista". There are two different types of races: The first one you can just tap http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/rb.png to zip to each checkpoint. The other has two different checkpoints, one where you automatically zip to it, and the other you'll have to do whatever you can to get there, being running, swinging, running, etc.

 

These are timed and can be somewhat challenging on Super Hero difficulty. You can change the difficulty to make any of the side missions easier. Only change the difficulty AFTER you've completed the story. Changing the difficulty only affects difficulty related achievements.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87819-lo.jpg Master of the Web 20:gsicon:

Performed 50 signature moves

 

This will be very simple to do once seismic blast is fully upgraded. This will knock the enemy out for a short while giving you the opportunity to perform a signature move. If you haven't gotten this by the end of the story, see "Ultimate Spider-Man" for a good boosting location.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87824-lo.jpg Sneaky 20:gsicon:

Completed a hideout without being spotted

 

This will more than likely pop while playing through the hideouts as being stealthy is almost required to complete them. Use your spidey sense and take out each enemy one at a time.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87820-lo.jpg Friendly Fire 15:gsicon:

Damaged Carnage with fire at least 3 times before defeating him

 

There are two phases to this fight and you can get this in either one. The first all you do is wear down his health and dodge any of his attacks. Turn on all of the incinerators and lure him to one. I used Web-Strike to hit him close to the fire, if not into the fire. Do a few regular attacks if he didn't land in the fire. You can easily knock him into the fire 3 times before phase two.

 

During phase two he will jump from pillar to pillar, and like phase one, make sure all the incinerators are on. Locate him and seismic blast him when he's directly above one of the fires. You will have to take care of some Carnage minions and then locate him again and knock him down 2 more times.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87821-lo.jpg Shotgun 10:gsicon:

Acquired the Seismic Blast ability

 

Story-related and cannot be missed.

 

This is unlocked after defeating Shocker.

Acquired the ionic web

 

Story-related and cannot be missed.

 

This is unlocked after defeating Kraven.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/2866/87823-lo.jpg Aerial Break 20:gsicon:

Destroyed any armored enemy using Web-Strike

 

The description is a little misleading. You don't need to destroy the enemy with Web-Strike, just the armor. Shoot the armor with http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/button-b.png a few times and when his armor turns gray (which means it's deteriorating), hit him with Web-Strike by pressing http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/site/icons/xb1/rb.png. You have to hit the Web-Strike quickly before the armor deteriorates on its own. There will be more than enough enemies to try this on.
