tsugarusatsujin Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) http://i.imgur.com/HiylNmy.png Overview: -Estimated Trophy Difficulty: 6/10 -Offline: 27 (1 , 4 , 10 , 12 ) -Online: 3 (1 , 1 , 1 ) -Missable Trophies: None -Minimum number of playthroughs: 4 Seasons and 100 waves in tackle alley -Approximate amount of time to Platinum: 20+ Introduction: Backbreaker is an American football video game developed by technology developer NaturalMotion. One of its highlights is the use of the Euphoria engine; a dynamic physics engine that calculates physical interactions (including tackles) on the fly, rather than depending on canned animation. Because Electronic Arts has an exclusive license to produce NFL games in its Madden series, Backbreaker does not use teams from the National Football League in its game. Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backbreaker_(video_game) Step One: Training Camp This first part will get you used to the controls, which are very different from Madden. You need to complete all 25 drills, which will earn you Boys to Men. Before moving onto the other steps please read this and try to follow it as much as you can. You do not need to aim for trophies as you are playing. If you are in a game and fall behind because you are going for a certain trophy don't worry about it. I have outlined how to get each of the specific trophies but you will have so many chances throughout all of your season playthroughs that you will get most of them as you play through the game without trying. Step Two: Create a Team and Complete Road to Backbreaker Here you will want to create and customize your team however you like. You can change everything or one thing - either way you will get Something from Nothing. After this you will need to complete an 8 team, 16 team, and 32 team season. Upon completing this you will get End of the Road. Step Three: Go through the Seasons Your first season should be the shortest with only 8 teams. This is where you should go for Flawless. If you think you are going to lose a game just exit out and restart. After this you should finish up the 16 team and 32 team seasons. Step Four: Tackle Alley This is the part of the game that seems to be giving most people trouble. I have outlined some tips in the trophy details. You must complete all 100 waves without losing all of your guys. If you lose all of them you must start from wave one again. Step Five: Online You will need to take your created team online and win 20 games. You can do this on your own or look in the trophy boosting thread here: LINK Step Six: Clean Up This is where you will go for whatever trophies you may have missed during all of your play up to this point. Offline: http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/03.jpgFirst of Many Pick up a 1st Down in a single player Exhibition or League game You will probably get this on your first drive. You just need to get a first down and the trophy will pop. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/03.jpgPaydirt Score a Touchdown in a single player Exhibition or League game You will probably get this in your first few minutes of playing. You just need to score a touchdown and it's yours. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/03.jpgArmed and Dangerous Stiff arm an opposing player in a single player Exhibition or League game First, you need to be in Aggressive Mode which is done by holding down . While holding this down, when someone attempts to tackle you push the in their direction and you should stiff arm and get the trophy. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/03.jpgA Spin Around the Block Spin around an opposing player in a single player Exhibition or League game This is done by pulling down on the then rotating it up like you would in street fighter hah. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/03.jpgThe Last Gasp Convert a 4th down in single player Exhibition or League game If you want to get this out of the way you can go for it on your first 4th down. However, I am sure at some point in time during a game you will end up going for it. Once you complete the first down the trophy is yours. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/10.jpgStealing the Feeling Intercept the ball in a single player Exhibition or League game, without player switching This can be done by selecting a Cornerback. It is relatively easy if you give the Receiver a small amount of room because the Quarterback will most likely pass to him. At this point all you have to do is position yourself between the Receiver and the Quarterback and the computer will do the rest. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/10.jpgFrom the hurt, to the Dirt Tackle the ball carrier in a single player Exhibition or League game, without player switching You will get this without even trying as you progress through all of your seasons. Just tackle the ball carrier with the player you were on before the ball was snapped. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/10.jpgQuarter Pounder Sack the Quarterback in a single player Exhibition or League game, without player switching. See Quarter Pounder, with Cheese http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/15.jpgIn the Bag Win a single player Exhibition or League game Hopefully you will get this in your first game. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/15.jpgSwaggerlicious Showboat 25 yards towards your opponent's endzone in a single player Exhibition or League game Showboating is done by holding the button if you are using regular controls and if you are using alternative controls. You can do this at anytime, if you feel safe go for it. However if you get hit while showboating you will fumble the ball. Tip from Lordilson: Create a custom team and have 11 Gold Star Offensive Players. Go into an Exhibition Game with the mode on Easy and go against a bad defense. When you get the ball choose "Run Left". When you get the ball run diagonaly left until you pass the line of scrimmage and just run it straight. When you get near the 25 yard line, hold and showboat. Your blockers should be good enough to not let anyone near you. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/25.jpgHustle and Muscle Perform a x5 combo in a single player Tackle Alley game If you are going to platinum this game you will get it. You can get it easily in one of the first few waves by just spinning around some defenders then showboating. Edited December 1, 2015 by Terminator Replaced missing banner.

tsugarusatsujin Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/25.jpgInvincible Perform a x5 streak in a single player Tackle Alley game Again, you will get this as you go through the 100 waves of Tackle Alley. If you somehow don't get this and do complete the 100 waves, go through and complete the first few waves. The goal of this is to complete multiple waves without being tackled. If you are tackled it resets the counter. You can easily get this starting from wave one. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/02.jpgBoys to Men Successfully complete all of the drills in Training Camp This should be the first trophy you get if you are following this guide. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/02.jpgMoving the Chains Pick up 500 offensive yards in a single player Exhibition or League game If you don't get this through all of your seasons, then do an Exhibition game and set the quarters to 15 minutes. This should give you plenty of time to pick up 500 yards. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/02.jpgGood eye, Strong Arm, Safe Hands Throw 10 complete passes in a single player Exhibition or League game This shouldn't be too hard to get as you play along. Again, if you are having trouble you can set it to 15 minute quarters. Just remember to let your Receivers finish their routes and do not throw into double coverage, cause it's really easy to get it intercepted. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/12.jpgQuarter Pounder, with Cheese Sack the Quarterback 3 times in a single player Exhibition The easiest way to get this is to choose a blitz play and control one of the Linebackers. You have to wait for the hole to open then you can go in and sack the Quarterback. You will not get this playing as a Lineman; if you did you would probably be lucky. Blitz plays should do it for you. Tip from Lordilson: Go into an Exhibition Game with the mode on Easy and go against a bad Offense. When they get the ball select a Cornerback and run next to an End. When the Offensive snaps the ball, run around their line of scrimmage and sack the Quarterback. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/12.jpgTo the Hizzy Score a defensive touchdown in a single player Exhibition or League game, without player switching. Any time your opposing team is pushed back to their goal line, pick a Cornerback and back off of the Receiver. This increases the chance the Quarterback will throw to him. Once it is thrown, get in between the ball and the Receiver and it should be yours - get the interception and take it to the end zone. This was the easiest way for me to get it and didn't take much effort. If you try this every time they are pushed back you will get it and not have to worry about it. Note A patch was implemented that gave the user interception control. It has been said that this makes it more difficult so if you are having trouble either decline the patch until you get this trophy or uninstall it. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/16.jpgShut Out Win a single player Exhibition or League game without your opponent scoring. You will get this in one of your many games as you play through the seasons. If you can't get it, then set the quarters to the minimum time limit, get one score and run out the clock every chance you get. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/19.jpgOn the Up Win the 16 team league in Season Mode Upon finishing and winning this season you will get the trophy. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/19.jpgBig Fish, Small Pond Win the 8 team league in Season mode Upon finishing and winning this season you will get the trophy. Remember this is when you will want to go for the undefeated season (Flawless). http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/23.jpgHalf Wave There Reach Wave 50 in a single player Tackle Alley game See Parting Wave. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/27.jpgSomething from Nothing Create a Custom Team This should be the second trophy you get and is very simple. Just make a team and you will get the trophy. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/18.jpgSeason Finale Win the 32 team league Season mode Upon finishing and winning this season you will get the trophy. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/18.jpgFlawless , Complete a season undefeated in Season Mode This should be done in the 8 team season as this is the shortest, which also makes it the easiest. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/18.jpgEnd of the Road Complete Road to Backbreaker You will need to take your created team through an 8 team, 16 team, and 32 team seasons and you will get this trophy. As you go through, make sure to draft free agents to make your team stronger. http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/467/24.jpgParting Wave , Complete the final wave in a single player Tackle Alley game This is one that has given people a lot of trouble. Here are some tips to make it easier. First thing you should do is switch to the alternate controls. This makes spin which is what you will be using most of the time. Second, you have to keep defenders in your view so that you know when to spin away from them. For the most part I would go at them straight on and spin when they went for the tackle. As you get into the higher waves you will want to make multiple people miss at the same time or you will never get past some of the waves. Here are some tips from I OU a Beatn: Wave 98 -Run right up to the huge horde of defenders and then spin left, take a step, and then do 2 quick spins to the right. It may take a few tries, but you'll get it. After the 2nd spin, you should just be able to run it in. Wave 99 -Immediately go to the right sideline. Whenever the first defender comes, spin to the right. With the next wave of defenders, spin to the left. You may have to spin to the left once more, but the goal here is to work your way from the right sideline back towards the middle of the field and you should be in the clear. Wave 100 -This one sucks. You have to hope and pray they align the way they should first of all, and you have to time it perfectly, then you have to have some luck. They come in couples. 2 guys will align and go through the smaller area, followed by 4 more couples, so there's 5 in total, meaning 10 defenders. Do NOT move until the 3rd couple has entered the smaller area and the 4th is about to enter. Then start running and just spin like crazy. You're going to have to pull off at the very least 3 spin moves to get it and hope and pray all the defenders get faked out. It took me a few tries, but you'll get it eventually. Tip from Lordilson: Wave 100 - Run up the left/right side red of the first narrow part and keep running straight through the large part. When you get the second narrow part with the defenders, juke left/right to get rid of defenders. When there are no more infront of you, run for the touchdown.

Lordilson Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 This is a pretty nice guide. I thought I'd submit my tips at getting some trophies. Swaggerlicious Create a custom team and have 11 Gold Star Offensive Players. Go into an Exhibition Game with the mode on Easy and go against a bad defense. When you get the ball choose "Run Left". When you get the ball run diagonaly left until you pass the line of scrimmage and just run it straight. When you get near the 25 yard line, hold X and showboat. Your blockers should be good enough to not let anyone near you. Quarter Pounder, with Cheese Go into an Exhibition Game with the mode on Easy and go against a bad Offense.When they get the ball select a Cornerback and run next to an End. When the Offensive snaps the ball, run around their line of scrimmage and sack the quarterback. Tackle Alley - Wave 100 Run up the left/right side red of the first narrow part and keep running straight through the large part. When you get the second narrow part with the defenders, juke left/right to get rid of defenders. When there are no more infront of you, run for the touchdown.

robpoole Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Just thought I would add in some tips for tackle alley having beaten it yesterday and seeing that a lot of people are stuggling with it... 1) Before you start switch from standard controls to alternate mapping. This will move the spin move over to the circle button, which is crucial because... 2) The spin move is your best friend. The first few times I tried tackle alley I was going exclusively with jukes and I could get to the 60s or 70s but no way can you beat the later waves without mastering the spin move. Also, if you're trying to rack up high scores a spin is worth twice as much as a juke. So I would say use the spin almost exclusively from the start, and by the time you get to the last 25 waves you should be comfortable with it. I had to use juking on maybe 1-2 waves the whole time. 3) Set a goal of reaching the maximum 99 lives by wave 60. This is a good guideline to let you know how well you're doing. If you're reaching wave 70+ for the first time you will need all those lives, trust me. 4) Keep a cool head. As you get into the deeper waves and start losing lives you'll get frustrated, and this will make you play worse. I turned off the sound, put on some chilled out tunes and cruised through wave 100 with about 70 lives to spare. Take your emotions out of the equation and it gets a lot easier! 5) If you do get to wave 80+ then you'll have to be able to engage multiple opponents with one spin move. The first example of this I think is wave 84 where you're going to have to drop 4-5 guys with each spin. A tip for this is if you see a group of guys coming for you try to head straight for the one at the front of the pack. Just as you get to them try and set them up one way then turn the other and execute the spin - for instance, approach them, head left for a nano-second, then head right and just as they are diving at you from the side hit the spin to the right and you'll drop all of them. The hardest of waves will require you to do this move 2-3 times in a row alternating from side to side but it's not that bad and you'll enjoy dropping all those guys. With this technique you can cruise through the 90s and all the way to the finish line, rarely needing more than 3-4 spins per wave, as suggested in some of the above posts. Hope this helps!

JACOBES13 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 (edited) Great guide.. I'm so close to platinum.. Just need to finish RTBB, have 11/20 online, and the crude wave 100 in tackle alley.. The guide mentioned switching the controls.. Oh wow!! Thanks for saying that.. I've been doing it so many times without it and it made it so much easier.. Enough said. Great guide man. Just wanna ask if your gonna put a difficulty rating on this. I'd say about 6/10 just because tackle alley and also some aren't used to football games, unlike me. I got most in-game trophies without really going for them so if your a big football fan like me most of these trophies should be nothing but pure fun.. EDIT: yea buddy. i just got the tackle alley wave 100 trophy.. what a mission. well i should get the last two trophies wen online comes back Edited February 8, 2012 by JACOBES13 out of date info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a3069namebke Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Do people still boost this game? Also, can some trophies be earned in 2 player split screen like madden? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACOBES13 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Well the ones that say they must be done in a single player match cannot be with two players. The season modes cannot be done with two players, nor tackle alley.... So basically to answer ur question.. NONE CAN BE WITH TWO CONTROLLERS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project Nemesis Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Are the servers still open for this game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maldovar Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 The last person to get an online win trophy was on March 20th of the registered members at YGC, so I would guess they're still open. However, if you're aiming to plat it I'd suggest finding a reliable boosting partner and finding a time where you can knock out all 20 wins in relatively short order as the servers were nearly barren even back when I was playing and on occasion they seem to reset the server stats and reduce everyone back down to 0-0 records.

Maldovar Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) Go here: PS3Trophies.org - Trophies Go into the appropriate section and click into the trophy list for the game you want to add. Then on the right click on enable trophy list ("click here to enable" in the my trophies box). Then you can click off the trophies as you get them. Or you could generate a trophy card at one of the sites and add it to your sig... which is a lot easier once you get into a couple thousand trophies.

C-IRVINE-94 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Lordilson Wave 100 - Run up the left/right side red of the first narrow part and keep running straight through the large part. When you get the second narrow part with the defenders, juke left/right to get rid of defenders. When there are no more infront of you, run for the touchdown. You are a hero Lordilson, I tried the other method once and it didn't work so I did yours and it worked like a charm My tips are, don't spin unless you really need to, juking is the easiest way! Took me 2 goes to pass wave 100. Had 70 lives left at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
