Recommended Posts

There are no bugged achievements

 

This is my second guide and I hope it is helpful on your route to 1000

 

If you have any questons please message me

 

P.S If you are currently renting the game they have made the online pass code free for a short time due to a mistake in producing the codes. This is unlikely to last.

Complete the Story

All of the story related achievements will come through natural progresion of the campain. You progress throught the story by completing the T marked missions on the map. Some of these missions will not be possible to do until you have finished some of the other yellow markers on the map.

 

Spoiler!

One of the only challenging sections of the game is the final fight with Jericho. For the first stage it will be the same as any other target elimination missions with the best strategy to warp into further ahead cars and ram him head on. For the next stage you will be forced onto the motorway and will lose the shift ability. Jericho will now throw cars at the player while you must keep up. A simple zigzag pattern should allow you to dodge the bulk of the throws. Upon surviving long enough you will trigger the next stage where you will be given the car throw ability yourself. Focus on the big vehicles like the cement mixer to do the most damage (You can quickly spam the same vehicle for extra damage)

 

Once back in the real world race to the police station to enter the final duel. You will have none of your skills so this will come down to your driving skill. Keep on him and strike on the long straits and the corners (Watch out for explosions and abandoned cars). When his health is almost empty he will no longer take damage, keep on him till you he stops engaging the ending cutscence.

Swap or Spawn into 20 Unique Vehicles (Public)

Contrary to original belief this achievement is not broken and is obtainable (Though the tracker in the menu is broken) When you reach level 8 you will unlock the ability to morph the car you are in to a different model from an unlocked list. During matches that allow this ability you should change into a new car from the list. Every time you unlock a new car you should add it to your selection roster (This expands to two at a higher rank). Once this has been done for 20 unique cars the achievement will unlock. (You can also use the spawn ability when unlocked a rank 18)

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UP-84kc=.jpgProfessional Racer 15http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Place in the top 3 in Classic Race 10 times (Public)

This mode is in the race category for the multiplayer searches and is grouped with Sprint GP

Like most driving games have this is your traditional race mode and consists of a two lap race around a track. Being first in the qualifiers is helpful on most tracks but watch out for rams from behind. all powers are disabled but boost is still available. Just make sure your 3rd or above when the race ends for this to count

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UP4cGtQ=.jpgPicking Up the Pace 15http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Place in the top 3 in Sprint GP 10 times (Public)

This mode is in the racing category for the multiplayer searches and is grouped with Classic race.There will be 5 small races broken up into ten checkpoints. The further up the placing you come in the race before the further back in the pack you will be in the next round. watch out for rams from behind as many of the cars in this mode are drifty and prone to spinning. All powers are disabled but boost is still available. Just make sure your 3rd or above when the race ends

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UP07Dto=.jpgRound and Round You Go 15http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Place in the top 3 in Shift Race 10 times (Public)

This mode is in the Shift racing category for the multiplayer searches and is grouped with Checkpoint rush. This is much like Classic race apart from the powers not being disabled and an additional lap. If you crash out it is often better to shift into a new car than recover the old. You should also take full advantage of the swap/spawn ability if it is available to you to provide a better car than the competition. Being first in the qualifiers is helpful as it makes this possible from the start line. Just make sure your 3rd or above when the race ends

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPzb9kk=.jpgCarry the Team 15http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Score 10 times in Capture the Flag (Public)

This mode is in the Team category for the multiplayer searches and is grouped with Blitz. This is a neutral flag mode with a first to 2 flags limit. Being first in the qualifiers is helpful as it makes it possible to be the first to grab the flag as long as you have a good car to swap into. If you are a good driver you may be able to go all the way to the your teams score zone. If You are taken out you will drop the flag and the next person to drive over it will collect it. The vehicle damage is increased so wreaking is much easier so caution is important when you are the carrier.Each flag you get to the drop zone will add 1 to the total

Successfully attack the base 10 times in Blitz (Public)

This mode is in the Team category for the multiplayer searches and is grouped with Capture the flag. This is a two round mode where one round you will defend and one you will attack. When on the attacking team you want to get your car into the score zone. If the other team touches your car you will be removed from the car and have to find a new one. Every time you enter the ring you get a point towards the achievement with a potential for ten in one match. This can be done over matches and is accumulative.

Spend 5,000,000 WP

This can be boosted through buying the upgrades which add a multiplier to the 20 minute income though these must be unlocked by completing dares.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPziyeA=.jpgThis Can't Be Real 5http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete the Shift Tutorial

This is story related and will come through natural progress of chapter one

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UP0CMXM=.jpgShift Happens 30http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Shift 1000 Times (Story/Online)

This should come with natural progress from the shifting during the campaign and the large amount of shifting in most of the multiplayer modes. If you still haven’t got this you can just quickly jump form car to car in the single player or multiplayer free roam

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPig2oo=.jpgDue for a Service 30http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Drive over 1000 miles (~1610 km) (Story/Online)

Much like the shift achievement this will most likely come with the natural progress as you will cover a large amount of ground doing all the challenges and racking up the multiplayer ranks. If you still need the miles get the Zonda and head at top speed around the motorway as there is a mostly strait loop around the island

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPlAIhk=.jpgCops & Robbers 30http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete 30 Freedrive Cop Chases

 

For this you can either be either a cop or criminal.

 

Cops: For the cop run you have to find and shift into a police car. These are the blue dots that move around the city. Once you are in control of the cop car you will see red dots on the map. Crash into one of the cars now marked on the map and you will start a chase. Now either chase down and ram the car out of action or posses other traffic and ram into them ( from the front is the best damage dealer)

 

Criminal: Shift into any car that is not part of the police force and crash into one of the police and start a chase. Either take out the cops (Not a good idea) or outrun them. This method is much easier on a long strait road and a fast car as the cops cant hit the top speeds.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPthK6w=.jpgRamped Up! 10http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete a Getaway Activity in a Car Transporter

Buy one of the ramp trucks from the garage and set as your active ride. Head to the first getaway activity and start. Get the truck up to speed and start switching into civilian cars ahead of your path and crash them into the cop cars. There will be 3 cars to start with a potential of two extra. When all the cars are taken out switch back to the truck and drive the remaining distance to the escape marker

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPqB0z8=.jpgLombard Streak 10http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Drive down Lombard Street, no collisions, over 20mph (Story)

This is the very windy road on the hill you will drive down in the first chapter of the game. You can either try this as you go down or return in the free roam between missions. This is easier to do in a mid range car that is not to drifty. You should feather the accelerator round the corners rather than drift to keep up speed

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1321/UPmmxzE=.jpgShow Off! 5http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Perform a 250m Drift or Jump (Story/Online)

The drift is the easier of the two options as the jump can be hard to get over the 200m mark. A good place for the drift is the big u-turns at the bottom of the starting areas. The best cars for this are either the rally cars or the old dodges.
