You can do this online or with two controllers in a local game.

I don't know if its me but can your description for turret takeover isnt making sense to me?

 

How do I shoot a turret? I'm in a local now but none of the controls say I can shoot anything. And I'm gussing you have to be the driver and not shooter? Or I may be wrong but it needs to be clearer in my eyes, as you don't state what side we have to be on etc

 

Other thatn that good guide and piss easy game!

 

Edit - Ignore me I found the answer in the other guide but you still need to change it to what side you play on even if it is a little obvious lol

Nice, quick, and easy game with an accompanying guide of equal status! Nice work AmbaLaBamba!

 

Thank you, just wanted to run through for certain people. :)

Shoot and takeover an enemy turret

 

When playing in a local/multiplayer lobby shoot an enemy turret (as the shooter) and then gain control, the game will tell you when you have killed the enemy turret and will ask you to press the :abut: button to takeover.

 

A person MUST be sitting inside the turret for this to work, using the map will help you out.

 

Okay, this seems like the silliest thing to mention, but it is an oversight worth adding to the description:

 

You have to press LT :ltbut:twice to double zoom in your scope so that you can shoot the enemy turret. THEN you press the http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/a.png button to takeover after your opponent has been killed.

 

I think I spent a good 5 minutes trying to figure out how to get a good shot on a nearby turret and that missing info is why I was so stumped. I overlooked the mention in the controls menu somehow, but considering the fact the players DO need to zoom in to take over the turret, it seems like something that shouldn't be missing in an explanation of how to get the achievement. You also might want to mention the zoom ability in the descriptions for First Blood, Flat Tire and One Shot Kill. Anyway, thanks for the guide. :)

 

And if anyone has 3 controllers (or at least one extra Xbox 360 controller and a music instrument controller--sign that one in as player 3), here's an easy way to get this achievement:

 

Sign in your second and third-player controllers as Guests and create a Multiplayer game (Local split-screen). Assign yourself and the second player as gunners and make your third player a driver (the team the driver is assigned to does not matter). Start the race and choose to play without bot players. After the race begins, choose a location with two nearby turrets on the map. After making your selection, place your second player in the opposite turret. Press LT http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/lt.png twice to completely zoom in to Player two and shoot him until he is killed. Press http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/a.png to enter his turret and the achievement will unlock.

You can use the zoom, but you don't NEED to use it. I did it fine without the zoom, just shot a few rounds using the sniping option and they were dead... :drunk

 

EDIT: Completed the guide I reckon now, although people are free to ask me to add more (as this was originally a quick guide to help people) :). Mentioned that you can do most achievements in ocal/multiplayer lobbys etc. Hope it has helped a few people.

I'm guessing you play on a very big television? :p When I set up my two controllers, I could see the name of my Guest player each time. But I couldn't see him close enough to get a kill at all (I was playing on a 13" SDTV...the 42" HDTV was being used :p). Once I figured out that http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/lt.png let players zoom in, it literally took me less than a minute to get the achievement with the 3-controller method I mentioned. Saying "you NEED LT" was probably a bit much on my part, but it was definitely something that would've probably saved me a good 20 minutes overall. :p

 

Anyway, last thing--I'm a stickler for wording and this will probably save you at least one future headache from someone. Try this for the Turret Takeover description:

Shoot and takeover an enemy turret

 

When playing in a local/multiplayer lobby, as a shooter, shoot an enemy turret and then gain control of it after killing your enemy. You can use http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/lt.png to zoom in and kill your enemy. The game will tell you when you have killed the enemy turret and will ask you to press the http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/a.png button to takeover.

 

A person MUST be sitting inside the turret for this to work, using the map will help you out.

 

I have a feeling that someone will say "Wait...do I zoom in AFTER I press http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/../images/misc/a.png?" or something like that. :p
