Description:

 

This standalone expansion will be available at no additional cost until April 10, 2015. The next great automotive adventure begins with the Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious standalone expansion for Xbox 360! For the first time ever, the Forza experience of thrilling driving and amazing cars is combining with the unstoppable Fast & Furious movie franchise to create an original adventure filled with adrenaline-fueled automotive action.

 

 

Playthrough Roadmap:

 

The Game is very linear, but at points you do have options of which car you want to acquire next. In this roadmap I will give you the best method to minimize your time spent to obtain all 1000 Gamerscore.

 

First begin the game. You will have to basically watch a Furious 7 trailer before you get to drive anything. You begin in the Lamborghini Huracáne and you must reach the location of the Dodge Charger R/T.

 

Now it is time to acquire your first car, the Dodge Charger '70. After finishing 3rd or better in the first Street Race, you will unlock Fast and Furious and once you enter your Garage for the first time, you will unlock 900 Horses of Detroit Muscle (All Car related Achievements don't unlock until you return to your Garage).

 

Now you will start more events to acquire the remaining cars, including the Jeep Wrangler (Winning's Winning), Toyota Supra (10 Second Car), Plymouth Cuda (A Quarter Mile at a Time), McLaren MP1 (Just don't scratch it), Dodge Charger '15 (Fully Charged), Nissan GT-R (What do you drift for?), Dodge Challenger '15 (Drift to Win), Bugatti Veyron (9 Second Car) and the Maserati Ghibli (Perks of the Job). The events range from Street Races, Sprint Races, Circuit Races Speed Zones, and so on.

 

After finishing the first race against the Nissan GT-R, Tej will notify you that there is a Plymouth Roadrunner in a Barn that needs restoring. You will be shown a general area of where the barn is located (See below for exact location). Upon finding the Car, you will unlock Got nothin' but time almost directly after finding the Plymouth Roadrunner.

 

At a point in the game, Tej will ask you to take a photo of the Dodge Charger R/T. Enter photo mode, snap a picture and unlock Selfie.

 

Your last story related Achievement requires you to race a Cargo Plane from Nice to the Airfield, this will unlock How Long Was That Runway.

 

Mop up: Now is the time to mop up any Achievements you may have missed. Including Burning Rubber, Tokyo Drift, High Flyer, 2 Furious, 2 Fast, An Inch or a Mile, Scratch That, First Draft, Fast 3,000, Chain Reaction and Wheelman. You will unlock the majority of these over natural progression through the story, but if not, now is the time to work on these.

 

Conclusion: The game is a fun tie-in for Furious 7 that any Forza fan will enjoy. It is a very short game with easy Achievements, but if you download it before April 10th, 2015, you cannot complain about a FREE Game or FREE Gamerscore!

 

 

Tips: To minimize your time spent playing the game, ignore bucket list challenges and reward smash boards as they are not tied to any achievements and are simply unnecessary to advance in the game. Whenever you need to return to your garage, use the fast travel feature by selecting the Garage in the World Map and pressing http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/misc/x.png.

Is this copied from the Xbox One version? The 360 and One versions are different in terms of most objectives.

[animusVOXone]

Yes. I wrote both guides and I am in the process of editing the 360 Guide.

Edited March 27, 2015 by animusVOXone

[THE DEADLY DOG]

2.2GB size for the 360.

[animusVOXone]

Thanks! I forgot to update the size. The rest of the guide and roadmap will be updated today.

[HamKet]

You should bump the difficulty up to 4/10, as the helicopter and cargo plane races can be a bitch to win (especially since you can't use nitrous whenever you want on the 360 version).

[Barad]

I failed the cargo plane race twice, even one easy. Not sure why it was so much harder as I doubt nitro made much of a difference on the One. I had however, no problems with the helicopter event on medium difficulty.

[JuSt BLaZe]

You should bump the difficulty up to 4/10, as the helicopter and cargo plane races can be a bitch to win (especially since you can't use nitrous whenever you want on the 360 version).

I totally agree on that, plus the races/achievement are slightly different and harder to obtain but he's probaly ignore us anyway...

[Geoff66]

Outside of what was mentioned in the achievement guide, is there another way to get Chain Reaction? It's the last achievement I need.

[Barad]

Get on the highway, high speed + near misses + drifts.

[STILLBORN]

Outside of what was mentioned in the achievement guide, is there another way to get Chain Reaction? It's the last achievement I need.

Go to airport at the top of the map. The runway is wide, and long enough to keep drifting side to side on.

[Geoff66]

Thanks Stillborn and Barad, I will give these a try tomorrow morning!

[animusVOXone]

Bumped the diff up to 4/10. Rest of the guide and roadmap will be up soon.

[Doktor Wilhelm]

Go to airport at the top of the map. The runway is wide, and long enough to keep drifting side to side on.

 

I did this, using the Nissan GT-R, since it skates around like it's on ice, with liberal doses of the e-brake.

 

This was an easier 1k than I thought it would be, I don't even know anything about racing games.

[Ryuukishi]

Got the 1000 on Xbone yesterday, and I've been playing some of the 360 version today... The game is noticeably more difficult on 360!

[animusVOXone]

Agreed, that is why the diff is 4/10 on 360 and 2/10 on XB1.

[Geoff66]

The above mentioned methods weren't working for me, I came across this video and it makes things very simple for bad drivers like me:

 

[Balc0ra]

Outside of what was mentioned in the achievement guide, is there another way to get Chain Reaction? It's the last achievement I need.

 

Bugatti on the runway, drive to the end and keep the speed at around 100km/h or 60mph. Then start a drift with the handbrake and use the throttle/steering later to keep it going side to side. Stop when you know you have enough. Easiest way by far to rack big scores tbh.

[Looter1]

Go to airport at the top of the map. The runway is wide, and long enough to keep drifting side to side on.

 

 

This ^^ You can do drifts, jumps, e-drifts (they count as different & up your multiplier - hit the 'A' button), burnouts, 180s.. heaps of different things to get that score up. I think the 1st time I was driving around there just mucking about I got 25k (I stopped once I realised I had enough points) quite easily.

[supadryz]

Have to say after playing Xbox One version then going to the Xbox 360 I did find this one more difficult mainly because the handling is now are near as tight & good as next Gen. Found myself bashing into fences & walls all the time which would never happen on Xbox One.

[Shizblacka]

I've been having lots of problems with achievements the past few days and this game really messed up. After beating the game, I have 6 achievements stuck on "Done! Unlocking..." which is fine, whatever.

 

But I got 120 k during a race on my first run and I've gotten over 7k numerous times yet nothing.

 

Just got 70k and neither achievement popped....

 

EDIT - Guess it took Upload automatically recording a clip of me getting 130k to smack me in the face then pop the achievements. Now I just gotta wait on the car ones to pop to get my 100%. Super fun after the 360 version taking about 24 hours to jump from 82 to 100%.

[Franchyze228]

Thanks for the great guide! Guides like this are the reason I don't visit any other achievement site. Much appreciated. :-)
