Finish a destroy the object level without killing an enemy

 

For this you need to complete a level that requires you to destroy objects without killing a single enemy. The easiest level to do this on is level 3 where you have to destroy the boots. Be patient and aim carefully while destroying the boots. If you accidentally kill an enemy you can always retry in quick play.

Finish the first set of levels by beating the first Pirate boss

 

The First set of levels are 1-6. Once you pass level 6 this will unlock.

Destroy a total of 1.000.000 blocks. All blocks you destroyed from all levels are counted.

 

This might require some grinding depending on how much on the environment you destroy while playing through the story. If you need to go back for this one pick any level and grab the big rocket power up and start shooting the environment. No need to worry if you destroy it all because it rebuilds itself over time.

Shoot 20 enemies in 60 seconds. All game modes are counted.

 

This is simple in the later levels when there are many enemies on screen. Get the triple rocket power up and keep shooting and this one should unlock.

Shoot 50 enemies with a longshot.

 

You get a longshot when an enemy has not entered your sight on the screen but they can be identified by a yellow triangle on your screen. Shoot them before they enter the screen to get a longshot. This should unlock just playing through the story but if you have trouble just find a corner and keep shooting and you should get easy longshots.

Use every power-up at least once.

 

There are a total of 20 power ups in Rocket Riot. They are categorized as bad, good, and funny. Just use each of them one time. Images and descriptions of each power up can be found in the in game help screen.

 

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1654/-3IrVQ==.jpgTwo Thumb Master 30 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png

Defeat BlockBeard to finish the single player campaign.

 

Blockbeard is the games final boss and is the most difficult boss to beat. Some tips for beating him would be use the power ups to your advantage. Get in close to him for only short periods of time and if your health turns yellow get away from him and let it recharge before going back in for more. This may take a few attempts.

Shoot 50 zombies, 50 robots, 50 pirates and 50 soldiers, all levels are counted.

 

You will get this before you even complete the story as most levels require you to kill a certain amount of enemies to pass them. Each set of levels has different types of enemies. Just pass the levels and if you have any issues just go back and replay some of the levels through quick play.

 

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1654/-bXHyA==.jpgNatural Born Gamer 20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png

Shoot 5000 enemies in total, all levels are counted.

 

This will most likely be the last one you get and requires some grinding. I found that choosing one of the later levels when there are a lot more enemies in them is the quickest route in unlocking the achievement.

There are a total of 251 different types of enemies in Rocket Riot. You must shoot all of them at least once. You can check your progress in the choose character screen in the game, because each time you shoot an enemy you unlock them for use in the game.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/achievements/1654/-CojvA==.jpgA Wilhelm Scream 5 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/site/gp-g.png

Die while fighting BlockBeard on the final level.

 

BlockBeard is the games final boss. All you need to do for this is to go right up to him and sit there and you will be dead in a matter of seconds.

Using the Triple Rocket power up, kill 3 enemies with one shot

 

The triple rocket power up comes in one of the green power up boxes and has a image of 3 rockets on it. Grab this power up and get into one of the corners of the map and let the enemies come to you. When there is a group in front of you just fire and you should get it no problem. This will be much easier in one of the later levels when there a lot more enemies on the screen.

Introduction:

Welcome to Rocket Riot a game brought from the XBLA to windows phone 7. Rocket Riot is not a hard game at all and is very easy to get into. In this version of the game you use your thumbs on the sides of the screen to move your player and fire rockets at enemies and blocks. The achievements are pretty straight forward and simple and almost all can be earned in just one playthrough. The rest will require just a little bit of grinding.

 

 

Step 1: Story Mode

You should start off by just playing through the story. This should take you no longer then and hour or two and will net you at the very least 3 achievements for 60http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpg.

 

While playing through the story you might get some of those misc. achievements out of the way. This would include 'Deathless Destruction' Which can be done on level 3. For 'Been There, Shot That' you should get all the red (bad) power-ups out of the way in the earlier levels because these will kill you later on and make the game a lot harder. 'I'll Show You Fits of Rage', 'Your Like Some Kind Of Robot', and 'One Shot, Thrice the Score' will most likely come without trying in the later levels due to the amount of enemies on screen. Last make sure to die during the final boss for 'A Wilhelm Scream'.

 

If you manage to knock these out while playing through the story mode you will get an additional 6 achievements worth 90http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpg. Bringing you to a total of 150http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpg for Rocket Riot.

 

 

Step 2: Clean-up and Grinding

Now you should go back and get any of the achievements you may have missed in the last section before you start grinding that last 50http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpg.

 

I've included 'The Things I've Seen' in this section because more then likely your going to have to go back through level select and kill any enemies you might have missed. For the most part these are in order in the character select screen, so you should be able to determine the level you missed them on just by looking at this screen.

 

The last two achievements you will need at this point are 'Natural Born Gamer' and 'One Meeeeeelion Blocks!'. For these just level select and start grinding. If done after everything else this should take you no longer then an hour.

 

 

Conclusion:

In conclusion Rocket Riot is a pretty easy game that should not take up much of your time for the full 200http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpg. There is not much to the story to this game, but they give enough verity to the levels to keep it fresh. There is some grinding involved but it does not take long enough for the game to feel boring. Thanks for reading and enjoy you 200http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.jpg!

Perfect thanks. Kind of sounded like a dick but I was just wondering this happens to a lot of arcade and wp7 games and you cant always tell what a game is like just by reading the achievement guide.

 

Its no problem. I'm the same way when it comes to buying new games. The roadmap is a lot more of an indication on if I will get it or not.

 

I'm just still trying to get the hang of writing a good roadmap. I've done a couple and none have been excepted the the main site yet. Here's hoping this one makes it lol.

This game does have some achievement bugs. I played through the whole game without unlocking either "Nice Beating You" or "On A Gamer's Diet". I had to go into Quickplay and re-play level 6 to unlock "Nice Beating You", and I still can't seem to unlock "On A Gamer's Diet".

 

Just a heads up for anybody thinking of getting this game. Although it's a great game, it does have some issues with achievements not unlocking.

 

EDIT: Seems as though I just got the "On A Gamer's Diet" achievement to unlock. After going in to the choose a character screen I saw that I had hardly no characters from the first 6 levels. It's as if the game didn't count me unlocking those characters.

 

EDIT #2: It seems as though me playing the trial version of this game, and then purchasing it through the trial might have messed up some things. That's the only reason I can see why those two achievements above didn't unlock, or why in the character select screen it said I had no characters on the first page. So it might just be an issue with the trial version of the game, and not the full game.

I had the same problem only worse -- I'll show you fits of rage and Two Thumb Master unlocked in game but wouldn't stick to my tag. So I had to redo the entire campaign again. I have been having problems with achievements unlocking but not sticking to my tag recently.

 

Also, it was odd, on my second playthrough I killed BlockBeard at the end at the same time he killed me. I got the achievement but the level didn't end and started over. Needless to say I had some really odd experiences with this game...

 

My oh my have I played enough Rocket Riot now. I'm going to pass on any sequels that come out (hopefully they won't)

Thanks for the guide! Some tips and suggestions (to add to the guide or to help others using the guide):

 

 

  • For longshots, the green target power up really helps as it makes the rockets guided. Though this shouldnt be an issue to get 50 for the achievement anyways.
  • It takes about 4-6 hours to complete the game. Took me around 5. Campaign takes roughly 2-3 hours, and you need another 2 or so hours to grind the rest of the achievements, specifically the kill one. I think the 3-4 hours listed in the roadmap is far too optimistic. That would be averaging 1500 kills per hours, which is a challenge to do even when purposely grinding the kills.
  • I would agree with an achievement difficulty of 3/10.
  • After completing the Campaign, I only had 2000 kills. Had to grind the last 3000, which was very painstaking and took 1.5 hours. Definitely I consider that a lot of grinding, mostly because it is almost as long as the regular game itself.
  • Upon completing the game, I did not get the achievement for killing 50 of each enemy type. Turns out I did not have enough pirates. Just replayed the first levels to get a few more. This could be mentioned in the guide.
  • You likely will only need to mop up pirate kills at the end to unlock all characters. This is because there is only 6 levels (and final boss) that contain pirates, and they are easy and you probably didnt kill that many. Just replay the first 6 levels to get those.
  • You should give better methods to obtain the achievements. Specifically the "3 kills with one triple rocket shot." It is unlikely that will be obtained without trying. You method may work but it not specific. Here is a link to TA for a method that worked for me in less than 5 minutes.
  • After finishing the campaign, I had around 700K blocks. No time should be wasted on grinding blocks. I had far more than a million by the time I grinded the rest of my kills. That should be mentioned.
  • ALSO IT SHOULD BE MENTIONED IN THE GUIDE THAT YOU NEED TO BE CONNECTED TO XBOX LIVE FOR THE ACHIEVEMENTS TO STICK TO YOUR TAG (EITHER WIFI OR CELLULAR). IF YOU EARN AN ACHIEVEMENT WHILE OFFLINE, YOU WILL HAVE TO REDO THE REQUIREMENTS, and possibly reset all your progress. Can also be mentioned in the roadmap by switching all achievements from offline to online
