Gooseboxer Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 A wounded little bird told me that you can get all the Stopwatch Achievements by replaying a mission, choosing the last chapter of each mission and simply beating only that portion. Any truth to this? I am away from my 360 for at least another 20 hours and would like someone to try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciscomancer Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Didn't work for me. I tried two levels that I still need Iron Man on. Started on the last segment, completed without dying, no achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daninthemix Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Don't waste your time trying this. I did most of the stopwatch achievements last night and the only reasonably hard one was Anvil because as a sniper you seem to go done in 2 or 3 shots.

avengerRPM Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 The answer is no, and this thread ought to be shut down. The question has already been answered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mvrck945 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I'm on my first play through and am doing it on normal. It worked for me on the tank mission, i played all but the last checkpoint. came back to it a couple of hours later and when i finished the mission the achievement popped. Rather surprised because at the start i was messing around for ages trying to get used to the controls. I reckon in combined the mission probably took me an hour and half to complete.

RIOT HAVOC Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 for most of the people at the top its for the stopwatch achievement not ironman, but this does work but u cant just load the last mission. u know how there is 2 parts to every mission hince the loading screen in the middle of them. if u do the the checkpoint just b4 the second part starts ( befor the loading screen) u can get the stopwatch achievement. its easier than doing the whole mission.

RIOT HAVOC Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Heh, no problem! I was wonderin when someone would say it worked for them to , so I could make sure my advice was correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawed Torn Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 only the first mission lets u get the achievement for only beating the last part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sum1_superior Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 only the first mission lets u get the achievement for only beating the last part. If you load up the checkpoint BEFORE the mission Cut scene halfway through the level, you WILL get the Stopwatch achievement. Normally just means you dont have to do the 1st checkpoint... just load up the second checkpoint and rush through it. I did all levels except Anvil this method and had about 5-10 mins left.

Elite Assassin Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 How do you tell which one is the mission before the cutscene. Some have like 8 parts. Also is there an easy way to get ironman achievements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sum1_superior Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Best way is to go for the complete each level on normal or harder achieve (15gp) then on each level note down where the cutscene comes in, then restart on casual and load up that checkpoint. Generally its checkpoint 2, but on the bigger levels with more stages sometimes C/Point 3. Should complete that checkpoint then up pops a cutscene. Carry on and up pops 25gp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sum1_superior Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Oh for Ironman... unfortunatley..... no! Easiest way is the obvious! Put it on Casual and dont get hit. Get in vehicals as soon as you can as its the equivelant of an extra life. Tank blows up with you in it.... out you pop ready to carry on! Keep watching on the map for more tanks respawning.

LAGRIFFE2007 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 The answer is no, and this thread ought to be shut down. The question has already been answered. Gaming has to be a hobby, and a passion. Never a necessity. Love the games, and love the friends, but don't ever love a high you may get from it. If the fun is gone and achievements are something you must have, you need to stop. Trust me, I would know. I have been achievement-free since 4/17/08 i wonder how many people had that kind of thoughts cause actually he s quite right i mean games are still funny and achievements is a nice way to have people know what games you have finished on what difficulty did you got 10000 kills? man i m so glad i red this cause i definitly know i m not only a videogames addict i m a an achievements seeker now!!

Alfman1 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've done this on like 4 levels so far and its worked? My friend also did it for every level on the game so i dunno why people are saying it doesnt work cause it clearly does. You have to play the whole level for ironman.
