douch-bag Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Cheats disable all achievements and stat tracking (grinds). The game warns you of this if you turn a cheat on. it also says that about hard lock and you can still earn achievements with it on. So thats why I asked since your just killing enemys.

Oynox Slider Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Argh. This game drives me crazy. I made myself a list with all the singleplayer weapons and crossed all I used during my second playtrough on hard. BUT the achievement still does not unlock. I still missed one I guess... but which one is the question now. I hope Rockstar will update the social club with a option to see how many kills you have with EACH weapon.

It's located at Chapter 13, Checkpoint 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to finishing it then going onto Old School which supposedly is easier than HC it is. its like medium difficulty with no last man standing. so it should be a breeze with less than 15 or so deaths. ya dig?

ll X ll Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 it is. its like medium difficulty with no last man standing. so it should be a breeze with less than 15 or so deaths. ya dig? Yeah, definitely. Just started disk 2 now, should have it completed on HC later today, then it's Old school immediately. Thankfully, i am really enjoying and loving it so, i dont feel like i am forcing my self or just wanting to whore myself out for the achievements. It is a really fun game. You gotta give respect to R* after 9 years they came out with MP3 and it lives up to most if not all expectations of the fans and newcomers alike. This gen we have MANY disappointing sequels (Duke Nukem forever, fable 3, Ninja gaiden 3, Star Wars: Force Unleashed 2.etc) So, this really shines and is an example of when following the mechanics of what the game started off and improving them, you make a better game. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Heck, don't try to change it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldtuna Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hey I noticed that under the guide for this achievement (something wicked comes this way) it says that you can no longer shoot the barrel, I'm just posting to let you know that you can still shoot the barrel, i have just done this and that's how the achievement popped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VyperJMc Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Quick question... can A New York Minute be done on any difficulty/AIM mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll X ll Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Quick question... can A New York Minute be done on any difficulty/AIM mode? Its automatically on medium diff. and you can choose between soft lock or free aim. Both options can net you the achievement. On NYM: Hardcore, once you press it you are forced to play it from chapter 1 till the last on free aim with the diff. being medium. Only twist here is, you must not die once or run out of time. Do either of those and you're back to chapter 1 even if you died on the last chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ll X ll Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 how is hardcore? cuz im getting hella pissed at this game right now. and im on hard. lol the favela level where they throw molotoves at you is a Payne in The Ass... pun intended.. It's harder then hard (2 or 3 shoots and you are in last stand if you had painkillers, sometimes with one shot) but it is doable with patience. Painkillers and covers are your friend, not so much the bullet time. You'll be bullet dodging and taking cover way more than bullet time because it doesn't fill up fast and when you use it it can finish pretty fast (and i am talking in seconds) so you have to use it very wisely. Once you learn the level design, and where most if not all the painkillers are it's not really hard. Just patience, take cover alot and shoot.

XxBlueSpade2xX Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I'm not connected to Live right now. Through chapter 3, nothing has unlocked. I have "Hard Lock" turned on, I actually hate it. But, is that why the Chapter Achievements aren't popping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, is that why the Chapter Achievements aren't popping? No, the game has a set of requirements for the achievements. As for Hard Lock you better start all over because the diff. achievements and other specific requirements you have to do in the single player all need Free Aim. The only achievement you would get without doing anything is finishing Part 1, 2 and finally 3 (Each pack of missions are connected to a part achievement, lets say the first 6 missions are part 1, then 4 missions is part 2, then 4 more is part 3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WogMatt26 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Just to let you know i obtained Colder then the devil's heart whilst going for the achievement Trouble Had Come To me So this is a faster and easier way! Just remember to use Hard Lock and easy difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrVictorStone Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Great guide very useful. About 2/3 of the way through my 1st playthrough and its helped alot. I did notice though that you said there's 10 online achievements for 170G when there's actually 11 for 180G (guessing you forgot the secret achievement "sweep" was online?).

sellou Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 1st played on hard, now i'm doing oldschool and wanted to go for all the collectables. do i have to start a new game or can i do this through level select and set the difficulty to oldschool? i'm asking because i started oldschool and played through the first three levels but left on a ceckpoint in the third. now there is no check-in at this point anymore and i would have to start the level again in level select with the checkpoint. i wondered if that will count towards the cheevo as well or if i have the whole level again.

ll X ll Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 On the last level of my Hardcore playthrough. Exciting! can't wait to finish it so i could jump on Old School then after that it's NYM: HC for me. Very confident now for NYM: HC, i feel that i learned the game and where everything is better.
