Can't wait til the act 4 one....

 

been having trouble with the 2nd one to get on hornets nest. i cant find exactly where it is... apparently i have to run to this gate because it's closing but i can find exactly which route to take...

taken from the collectible guide

 

 

2) In the area where Dom asks about the beacon. You'll know if yur in the correct spot because you'll get a new objective. As soon as you see checkpoint appear on your screen you need to haul ass. The gates will start to close. You need to run up 2 sets of starts. One is on the left as you enter this room and the other is on the right. You'll see them, kinda hard not to miss. The gate in front of you will start to close. This is the gate you need to go into. Once you make it turn right and the collectible is on the floor

Wow nice work it came out very good. idk if you will get a sticky because there is already a collectable guide that is sticky, most of the time they wont sticky two. You could ask a mod or ask the person who made the other guide to merge yours in with there guide. That way at least people will still see your guide. If they do sticky it that would be sweet you put alot of time into this and it is good work.:)
