FtMyersGamer Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Happy to report that this DOES still work. I simply focused on getting the 5 cards needed for building cities, then built/un-built them as fast as I could. Otherwise, I built a road piece now and then to get rid of extra cards. A few notes: 1) I have had this game on my Xbox for 2 years or so and never deleted it. I have, however, cleared the cache multiple times. I'd recommend you do it as well. 2) I had done a few dozen cities the night before, and I don't believe they counted toward the total. I believe this DOES have to be done in one sitting. Multiple games, but all in one sitting. 3) Some poor soul decided to stay in the game with me while I pounded out city after city. Therefore, you do NOT need the other players to drop out. 4) VERY IMPORTANT: You can get hit by a 7 at any time if you have too many cards in your hand. Therefore, whenever I had more than the 2 Wheat & 3 Stone I needed, I traded the extra cards away to the other player or AI. That way, i mostly had only 5 or 6 cards in my hand at all times, and could focus on building/un-building cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P1TTMAN Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Glad to know this still works; I've had this game for years now, and always figured those achievements were just stupidly out of reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uranium Deposit Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I look forward to giving this a try a little later. I've had this game since it came out and have been lacking those two 'chieves since then. Thanks for the tip. :drunk Here's to pissing off some otherwise unsuspecting souls in ranked matches.

DarthRandalNC Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I hate to ask this yet again, but... I had to download an update when I booted this up a few days ago, so I was wondering if anyone can confirm that this method still works. I've tried it a few times, but I'm starting to feel like a real asshole to the other people still in the match. I'd rather not piss people off if I don't have to.

High Lord Sigma Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I can confirm that this method still works; my cousin and I boosted 1000 Victory Points over many hours today. However, it appears that the build/undo method does not work with the Longest Road card, so repeatedly building settlements and/or cities is the best method to gain Victory Points.

I've been a total asshole to everyone in this game so far, rebuilding my road over and over. Glad I know that now, so I can return to being a total asshole with only the structures.

Tylosargerchia Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Does anyone know if this works in single player matches for the 100 and 250 point achievements? Those are both glitched for me and I would like to unlock them in single player. I'm so tired of worrying whether I'm going to accidentally unlock two achievements at the same time. Ugh. Wish this game could have been patched... Edit: Nevermind. It works. I just unlocked the 100 point cheevo in about 5 minutes, so for both that and the 250 it will certainly work. I'm glad, because I've been annoyed about it. Next up, Longest Road and Largest Army, but certainly at different times.

canadabug Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) Just wondering.....If you get 4 players together in the same ranked match all boosting using the build/rebuild method, will the game end itself at some point? Or will the same game continue until all 4 players can get the 1K VP Point achievement? edit: nevermind, figured it out. Played with my main and 3 dummy accounts for over 4 hours and none were disconnected until my main got the achievement and then built settlements to the required 10VP win condition.

T.B.R.M Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 for anyone who is still confused about the victory point achievements, please refer to the achievement guide thread http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?p=5497667#post5497667 my post confirms that the unbuild/build method does work!
