***NOTICE ABOUT PS3 Platinum***

 

Due to Rockstar disabling online bounties on PS3, Run Like The Wind is currently unobtainable, and likely will remain so as they have dropped support for the PS3 version. If you already earned this trophy when the game came out, the rest of the services are fine and the Platinum will be obtainable.

Welcome to Grand Theft Auto V! Rockstar North's latest masterpiece returns to the fictional state of San Andreas and gives the player their biggest open world yet, with the choice to explore it via a riveting single-player campaign featuring three unique and instantly switchable protagonists or a free-roam online multiplayer experience that can be shared with as many as 16 friends. This game really needs little introduction, you know exactly what it is and we know exactly why you're here so on to the trophies!

 

The trophies are divided fairly equally between completing the story, finding all the collectibles, partaking in various miscellaneous activities and exploring the online component. In particular heavy time investment will be needed for the three (G) trophies: 100% Completion for Career Criminal, 70 Gold Medals for Solid Gold, Baby! and attaining Rank 100 online for Above the Law. Many of the miscellaneous trophies will come naturally whilst progressing towards these, but we urge you to bear in mind the 6 missable trophies.

 

Note on missable trophies:

 

There are 6 missable trophies in the game. All of these trophies are missable post-game depending on a choice you make as Franklin during the final mission. Make sure when you are given a choice of three options that you choose "Option C", otherwise these trophies will be unavailable to you without starting a new game or unless you made a separate save file beforehand. 4 of these trophies (TP Industries Arms Race, Red Mist, Kifflom! and Three Man Army) become unmissable if "Option C" is selected so they can be earned at any point, however, special attention should be paid to Altruist Acolyte and Wanted: Alive or Alive as there are only a limited number of opportunities to earn these two trophies. When playing as Trevor, you will encounter select few Random Events that task you with driving an NPC to a given location. Instead of doing this, drop at least one off at the Altruist Cult in the mountains. Similarly there are only four Bail Bond missions in which you can capture a target alive so if all these opportunities are squandered, you will have to start a new game or revert to a previous save file to earn them. Please refer to the respective trophies in the guide below for more information.

 

Furthermore all cheat codes will disable trophies, however, they won't disable the autosave feature. If you want to have some fun with the cheats, then make sure you create a new save file first so that you can revert back to it and continue with your legitimate progress. Cheats list HERE.

 

Note on glitched trophies:

 

As a general note, many trophies on both PS3 and PS4 have issues unlocking, whether that being dirctly or by extension (such as side-missons not appearing and thus making 100% completion unobtainable). There is no known cause for this, or even a fix except hoping to luck out and resolve it by swapping characters, sleeping for a few days or finishing more missions and hoping to trigger it. Therefore, it is recommended to create new save files and back up your data at regular intervals, perhaps every five story missions or so.

 

The Kifflom! trophy is causing issues with some players. The trophy is not glitched in the sense that if you complete the mission it won't unlock, but rather that the mission will not progress in-game so you cannot complete it. To combat this we recommend making a new hard save before you are tasked with stealing the 5 cars, if the mission does not progress after that like it should then you can try again. Please see the trophy description for more details [Fixed with patch 1.01].

 

Enjoy Your Stay has an issue where it won't unlock for some players. Try going back to the tattoo parlour and getting a tattoo on the torso area.

 

Finally, skipping story missions is not advised, particularly those with a story-related trophy attached to it. The trophy will not unlock if you do this, so you will have to replay the mission anyway at a later time. Furthermore, some people have reported issues with the trophies not unlocking even after replaying the particular mission various times, so it is highly advised to not skip any missions at all.

 

Note on PS4 Version - Autopping trophies and extra trophy:

 

*As of March 2017, character transfer from PS3 to PS4 is no longer available.*

 

If you previously unlocked trophies in GTA Online with a character on the PS3 or XBOX 360 and then purchased the PS4 version, importing that character will automatically unlock some of those trophies on the PS4 version.

 

The requirements must have all been originally done on that character; the trophy will not Autopop by having the progress done across multiple characters or by simply having the trophy from the PS3 or 360 version unlocked on your PSN account. In theory all trophies are supposed to Autopop as soon as you transfer your character, but occasionally they will differ player-by-player and may require a trigger to unlock. These are listed in the guide.

 

The trophies which can be Autopopped (in XMB order) are:

 

Show Off

Pimp My Sidearm

Los Santos Customs

Off The Plane

Three-Bit Gangster

Making Moves

Above The Law

Numero Uno

The Midnight Club

Unnatural Selection

Backseat Driver

Run Like The Wind

Clean Sweep

Decorated

Stick Up Kid

Enjoy Your Stay

Crew Cut

Full Refund

Dialling Digits

American Dream

 

There is also an extra (B) trophy on PS4, which is A New Perspective, requiring you to play the game in FPS mode for 15 hours. You can either work on this from the start or idle it later. Please see the trophy guide for more details.

 

We would like to especially thank Supremacy for all of the invaluable Autopop information contained within this guide, and for the A New Perspective write-up. All information is used with his permission.

Step 1 - Complete the story, bearing in mind the missable trophies

 

For the first step you are free to do whatever you like in the game and just have fun, but ultimately you should complete all 69 main story missions. Once you have completed 68 missions (which can be checked by pressing :start:, pressing :r1: twice to get to the "Stats" tab then selecting "100% Checklist") you should either make sure that you have earned all the missable trophies or be aware that at the beginning of the next and final mission you must choose "Option C" as Franklin. If you choose another option, the missable trophies will be unattainable unless you have a prior save to fall back on or start a new game.

 

Step 2 - Find all collectibles and complete various miscellaneous activities for 100% Completion

 

This is the most time-consuming step in single-player. For 100% Completion and the Career Criminal trophy you are required to firstly finish all 20 of Franklin's Strangers & Freaks side-missions, which in turn requires you to find 50 Spaceship Parts and 50 Letter Scraps. For the other collectible-related trophies you must complete the 50 Stunt Jumps, 50 Under The Bridge Challenges, 15 Knife Flights and find all 30 pieces of Nuclear Waste.

 

Finally, you will have to win medals in various Hobbies & Pastimes as well as take part in certain other activities to earn 100% Completion. To help you with this, we have created a 100% Completion Guide & Checklist which provides both locations and descriptions for all collectibles and information for how to complete all other miscellaneous activities. Furthermore, you should make use of the 100% Completion Checklist Spreadsheet which goes hand-in-hand with our guide and can be used to track your progress. Finally, as the in-game stats page is lacking in detailed information, it is advised that you link your PSN ID to the Rockstar Social Club as its "Checklist" tab provides more detailed information on the missions and activities you have already completed.

 

Step 3 - Clean up of miscellaneous trophies and replaying missions for 70 Gold Medals

 

You will likely have a few trophies left in the single-player, so now is the time to focus on them. Most are pretty simple but significant time and effort will need to be spent on the convoluted Kifflom! side-mission and Solid Gold, Baby!, which requires you to earn 70 Gold Medals from a combination of the 69 main story missions and 45 Strangers & Freaks missions. During this endeavour you should make use of dcollins22's Gold Medal Requirements Guide.

 

Step 4 - All GTA Online trophies

 

Now it is time to step into the world of GTA Online to mop up the remaining trophies. Luckily, almost all of them can be earned with little effort by boosting either in a Solo Session or with friends in an Invite-Only Session. Furthermore, with the exception of the Rank-related trophies, all other trophies can be earned by Rank 20.

 

The two most time-consuming endeavours are earning 30 Platinum Medals for Decorated and accumulating almost 1.6 million RP for Rank 100 and Above the Law. The former can be boosted quite easily, but the latter will be a long and arduous process. If you need to, please make use of the Trophy Boosting Thread to find a partner for the Online trophies.

 

After this step you should have all GTA V trophies and your (P), congratulations!

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 38th story mission "Caida Libre".

 

Spoiler

Go to the "MZ" on your map while playing as Trevor or Michael to start this mission. You will have to go to the Galileo Observatory and get the high-powered sniper rifle from the van that is parked there, then you need to shoot down an airplane by firing at the red square in front of it to accommodate for the time lapse. Now follow its smoke trail through the desert until it crashes. Once there kill the last passenger and go into the airplane to grab some documents. In the last step you need to destroy your van, go to Martin's house and meet up with your partner to end the mission. The trophy will pop after that.

21c.jpg  To Live or Die in Los Santos (S)(H)

Completed the final mission.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 69th story mission, which depending on your choice is called either "The Third Way", "Something Sensible" or "The Time's Come". The guide below follows ”The Third Way” as that relates to "Option C" which we recommended you choose in the Roadmap to avoid missable trophies.

 

Spoiler

When the last mission stars you will get a call while playing as Franklin, be sure to pick option "C"! In the first part you need to meet up with Lamar and drive to the target destination where you meet Michael and Trevor. Fight off all the enemies and you will get the task to assassinate one enemy leader with each character. Kill all of these high-value targets to receive the final objective as Trevor. Go to the final target's house, kill the guards around the pool and approach the target. Finally, drive to the rendezvous point and enjoy the final cutscene after which the final story trophy will pop.

ecb.jpg  Diamond Hard (B)(H)

You cleaned out Vangelico to pay back Martin Madrazo.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, It will unlock after completing the 13th story mission "The Jewel Store Job".

 

Spoiler

This is the first heist mission. After finishing the preparations, you can choose between two approaches for this mission (i.e "Loud" or "Smart"). It does not matter which one you choose, it just changes the short preparation missions and the way the heist plays out. Your final reward depends on which people you choose to employ. Less skilled hirees will demand less of a cut than experienced hands, but they are more likely to die and lose the money they were carrying.

 

During the heist, rob the store and take as many jewels as you can from the cabinets before escaping with the money on motorbikes. After losing the cops in the sewer tunnels and meeting at the rendezvous point, the mission will end and you will earn the trophy.

 

 

88d.jpg  Subversive (B)(H)

You stole an experimental super weapon from Merryweather... and gave it back.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 27th story mission "The Merryweather Heist".

 

Spoiler

This is the second heist mission. After finishing the preparations you can choose between two approaches again (neither way will affect the trophy, just the way the mission pans out). Following the "Freighter" choice, you must plant the bombs on the ship then detonate them and pick up the experimental super weapon with the submarine. Bring it to the target destination to finish the mission and unlock the trophy.

 

 

fcd.jpg  Blitzed (B)(H)

You performed a classic blitz play.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 34th story mission "Blitz Play".

 

Spoiler

This is the third heist mission. After finishing the preparations you must head to the "H" symbol on your map. Unlike other heist missions, you don't have the opportunity to choose between different approaches for this one.

 

Get the garbage truck in place and ram the security van with the two trucks. Blast open the doors and take the money, then fight off the cops for a couple of minutes. After all the cops are gone you need to drive the garbage truck to the target area with Franklin. Destroy the truck and deliver the money to end this mission and unlock the trophy.

 

 

e44.jpg  Small Town, Big Job (B)(H)

You made a big impression at the Paleto Bay Chicken Festival.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 44th story mission "The Paleto Score".

 

Spoiler

This is the fourth heist mission. After finishing the preparations you must head to the "H" symbol on your map. Again unlike other heist missions, you don't have the opportunity to choose between different approaches for this one.

 

Go to the bank and take the loot from the safe. Now fight your way through all the cops with your new weapon until you switch to Franklin automatically. Franklin has to bring a bulldozer to Michael and Trevor. Be careful though as there are several military tanks driving around and shooting you, use the scoop on the front to lift cars out of your way. Pick up your comrades and drive to the building on the other side of the street. Make your way through that building and jump on the train to end this mission and unlock the trophy.

 

 

01f.jpg  The Government Gimps (B)(H)

You recovered sensitive information from a highly defended federal building.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 57th story mission "The Bureau Raid".

 

Spoiler

This is the fifth heist mission. After finishing the preparations you can choose between two approaches for this mission. Following the "Fire Crew" option, you must go to the FIB building as Michael dressed as a janitor (which is automatically done for you). In between tedious mopping sections, you must plant incendiary bombs around the building. After that is done, go outside and detonate the bombs before going back in as a fireman (again, this will be automatic). Enter the building and take the hard drive, fight your way out then escape the cops and go back to Lester's house to finish this mission and unlock the trophy.

 

 

8f2.jpg  The Big One! (B)(H)

This ain't no dream no more.

 

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed, it will unlock after completing the 68th story mission ”The Big Score".

 

Spoiler

This is the sixth and final heist mission. After finishing the preparations you can choose between two approaches for this mission. Go to the bank and rob the gold. Now depending on which method you chose, you must either transport the gold with a helicopter and place it on a train or drive your escape vehicle into the back of a truck after a scripted chase to secure the loot. Once either is done, go to the rendezvous point to end the mission and unlock the trophy.

54b.jpg  Solid Gold, Baby! (G)

Earn any 70 Gold Medals on Missions, Strangers and Freaks.

 

There are a total of 116 missions in the game which you can earn a Gold Medal in and work towards this trophy. These comprise the 71 main story missions and the 45 (out of 58) Strangers & Freaks missions which offer a Gold Medal. Medals earned in Hobbies & Pastimes such as races and weapon challenges do not count for this trophy.

 

A Gold Medal is earned when all objectives in a mission are achieved. Luckily you do not have to earn them all in one run; you can replay a mission at your leisure and the objectives will stack with each repeat play of that mission (the 5 Rampages are the only exception to this, as all requirements must be achieved in one run). Individual requirements, however, are not stackable so if you get 8/10 headshots in your first playthrough you will still need to get 10 in your second. To replay a mission or check your current medal progress, pause the game by pressing :start: and go to the "Game" tab with :r1: and select "Replay Story Mission" or "Replay Strangers & Freaks". Unfortunately you have to manually count how many Gold Medals you have earned by scrolling down the mission lists.

 

Certain missions have requirements such as "Time Completed", "Accuracy" and "Minimal Damage to Health & Armour". These challenges will automatically be void if you die and instead the checklist will say "Checkpoint", if this happens you must restart the entire mission again. Cutscenes also add to the timer on missions so be sure to skip them with :cross:.

 

A few tips to bear in mind:

 

Your character's current skill levels when choosing "Replay Mission" will be available in that mission, therefore it is highly recommended to do this trophy post-game when you have maxed out at least "Driving", "Stamina", "Strength" and "Special". Furthermore, all weapons and upgrades you have bought will be available, as will body armour if you purchase it before replaying a mission.

 

The Strangers & Freaks missions are by far the easiest missions to get a Gold Medal in as they are often very short and have only a few requirements to meet. Similarly the "heist preparation" missions are short and easy as are Lester's Assassinations. Unfortunately you can only replay the "heist preparation" missions that you chose to do during your playthrough i.e. "loud and dumb" or "smart", you can't do the other side's easy missions as well. You can, however, replay the final mission twice and choose both "Option A" and "Option B" for their very easy Gold Medals, bringing the total available for main story missions up to 71. For story missions in general you should replay those which have the fewest requirements, plus try and avoid those with criteria such as "Accuracy" and "Time Completed" because if you die you'll have to restart the whole mission again. With miscellaneous objectives if you fail you can often just kill yourself or fail the mission on purpose to try again.

 

If you wish to view all missions which are eligible for a Gold Medal, along with requirement checklists and tips for various missions, please see this guide by dcollins22: Gold Medal Requirements Guide.

 

Furthermore, if you wish to see a video walkthrough of a Gold Medal in each of the main story missions, see this video playlist created by GTA Series Videos:

 

 

b5a.jpg  Career Criminal (G)

Attain 100% Game Completion.

Story Missions (50%)

  • All 69 Story Missions, including all 5 of Lester's Assassination Contracts.

Strangers and Freaks (10%)

 

Only 20 of the 58 Strangers and Freaks Missions are required for 100%. However, they have to be the following 20 specific missions available to Franklin rather than any 20:

 

Tonya

 

  • Pulling Favors
  • Pulling Another Favor
  • Pulling Favors Again (This rarely shows up unless you call Tonya to activate it).
  • Still Pulling Favors
  • Pulling One Last Favor

Hao

 

  • Shift Work

Beverley

 

  • Paparazzo
  • Paparazzo - The Sex Tape
  • Paparazzo - The Partnership ("Paparazzo - The Highness" and "Paparazzo - The Meltdown" combined)

To keep track of your progress in-game pause it with :start:, scroll over to the "Stats" tab with :r1: then selecting "100% Checklist". However, this in-game stats page has very limited information so we highly recommended creating an account with the Rockstar Games Social Club if you haven't done so already. Once on this site, select "GTA V" from the list of games and then click the "Checklist" tab. This will provide far more detailed stats and will show you everything that is needed for 100% and, more importantly, what you've already specifically accomplished (which the in-game page does not tell you).

 

The game will autosave after you complete every mission or activity which contributes towards 100%, this is helpful indication that something has been completed appropriately. There are also on-screen notifications once you pick up a collectible or perform a Stunt Jump which tells you how many you have or how many are required.

 

For a much more detailed guide on everything that is necessary for 100% Completion, please see our 100% Completion Guide supplement and if you want an easy way to keep track of your progress then please use the accompanying 100% Completion Checklist Spreadsheet created for us by GoddessMushu.

ed3.jpg  San Andreas Sightseer (S)

Explore all of Los Santos and Blaine County

 

The description for this trophy is slightly misleading as revealing the ocean is also required, however, focus first on revealing all of the land area. You will notice that at the start of the game, despite the whole map being available to explore, the vast majority of it is clouded over with its features indistinguishable. The best way to reveal the map this is to get a helicopter or a plane (the fighter jet which you can steal from Fort Zancudo is preferable since it's the fastest) and fly along the coast to define the land boundaries, then start in one corner and work your way north (or south, depending on your starting point) before turning round and going back the other way in a parallel line. Do not worry as much about the ocean as you will reveal the majority of it whilst searching for Nuclear Waste for Waste Management (B).

 

If after all this you are still without the trophy, set your waypoint on areas of the ocean still undefined and either fly or use a boat to uncover these areas. Note: The map "ends" where the water turns deep blue so if you carry on past this point, you are not uncovering any more of the map.

 

Luckily you do not have to reveal every last pixel as the trophy unlocks once around 95% of the map is revealed.

 

01a.jpg  All's Fare in Love and War (B)

Purchase Downtown Cab Co. and complete a private fare.

 

This property can only be bought with Franklin and it costs $200,000. You have to beat the story mission "Nervous Ron" to unlock properties for purchase. After this mission the Downtown Cab Co. can be found in East Vinewood in the North-East of Los Santos. It will be marked on your map with a property.png  symbol.

 

Once the company is purchased wait until the manager, Raul, gives you a call about a private fare. Completing a normal fare in a company taxi won't count. Accept the task and go to the green "P" on your map. Wait until the VIP gets into the cab then drive him to the target destination. The trophy will unlock after the person leaves the cab and the "Private Fare Complete" notification appears on your screen.

 

You don't actually have to be in a Downtown Cab Co. taxi for this trophy, as Raul can call you at any point as long as you're playing as Franklin. Picking the VIP up in any car will suffice.

 

031.jpg  TP Industries Arms Race (B)

Purchase McKenzie Field Hangar and win the arms race.

 

[MISSABLE] This trophy can be missed if you have not unlocked it by the time you get to the final mission. Make sure you choose "Option C" when offered the choice, after which this trophy is no longer missable.

 

These missions can only be done as Trevor. You have to beat the story mission "Nervous Ron" to unlock properties for purchase. The McKenzie Field Hangar costs $150,000 and can be found in the Grapeseed area, north of the Grand Senora Desert. It will be marked on your map by the property.png  symbol.

 

After purchasing it you need to complete 10 weapons-trafficking missions for Oscar. Five of the missions are done with the Cuban 800 plane located in the hangar and the other five are done with the BF Dune Buggy parked just outside it. Simply press :triangle: to get in either vehicle and the mission will start. Once you complete a mission for one vehicle, do the other one then quick save and reload your game to respawn at the hangar with the next two missions immediately available. This is a much quicker way to respawn them, rather than having to travel a fair distance away and come back.

 

Plane missions involve either airdropping crates on a fixed location or bombing certain areas, both of which are done by flying over them and pressing :cross: to release. For both types of missions you will have to land your plane back at the hangar, therefore it is advisable to have Trevor's "Flying" skill maxed and have completed the basic tutorials at the Flight School to get to grips with handling planes.

 

The Dune Buggy missions are simple and just involve you driving to a nearby location to pick up a package (which you can do just by driving over it) and driving back to the airfield, occasionally having to either kill or escape from some chasing vehicles along the way.

 

982.jpg  Multi-Disciplined (S)

Attain a gold medal in all applicable hobbies and pastimes.

 

There are 6 applicable hobbies and pastimes in which you must earn a gold medal. Luckily you only need one gold medal per type of activity, which are as follows:

  • Flight School (any of the 12 lessons).
  • Off-Road Race (win any of the 6 races).
  • Sea Race (win any of the 4 races).
  • Shooting Range (1 gold medal out of all 18 challenges).
  • Street Race (Complete the "Shift Work" Strangers & Freaks mission for Hao).
  • Triathlon (win any of the 3 events).

The shooting range is probably the hardest as you will have to get a certain amount of points within a time limit. Shoot quickly and always try and hit the yellow bullseye area of the targets to get the most points, try not to miss as that will reset your multiplier.

 

In the flight school you just need to beat a very simple time limit in the first tutorial. In the various race types and triathlon you need to finish first to get a gold medal. Street races become available by beating Hao's mission but completing that mission itself requires you to get a gold medal in the street race so you won't need to complete any further races. Keep in mind that Hao's mission only becomes available from 8pm-5am while playing as Franklin and is shown as a green-question-mark.png  on the map. For the other hobbies you can choose whichever character you like.

 

Here is a video walkthrough for this trophy:

 

 

f0c.jpg  Red Mist (B)

Complete all Rampages.

 

[MISSABLE] This trophy can be missed if you have not unlocked it by the time you get to the final mission. Make sure you choose "Option C" when offered the choice, after which this trophy is no longer missable.

 

Rampages are Strangers & Freaks missions that can only be done as Trevor and will become available after beating the story mission "Trevor Philips Industries". There are 5 Rampages and in them you need to kill a certain amount of enemies within a time limit. The first Rampage will be shown by the http://www.powerpyx.com/Assets/Icon/GTA-V/orange-question-mark.png icon in the Grand Senora Desert. Here is a screenshot of its location:

 

red-mist.jpg 

 

After finishing the first Rampage, the next one will show up as a skull symbol on your world map. Rampages that you have already completed will have a green tick next to the skull, which looks like this icon: rampage.png. You always need to complete a new Rampage in order to unlock the next one. The trophy will unlock after beating all 5 Rampage events.

 

You have infinite ammo for the given weapons along with 25 grenades. It'll greatly help you to have the "Traditional GTA" aiming mode on to as with the large groups of enemies, the auto-aim and ability to snap to different targets with :rs: will prove invaluable. You should also make liberal use of Trevor's special "berserk" ability by pressing :l3: and :r3: simultaneously as it fills up very quickly during Rampages. The game is confusing as the orange blur effect on the screen makes it seem like the ability is permanently activated, but this is not the case as you must activate it yourself.

 

The 5 Rampages are unlocked in the following order:

 

Rampage #1

 

Location: Sandy Shores

Requirement: Neutralize 25 Rednecks in 2 minutes using grenades and the AK47.

 

Rampage #2

 

Location: Rancho

Requirement: Neutralize 30 Gang Members in 2 minutes using grenades and the SMG.

 

Rampage #3

 

Location: Chamberlain Hills

Requirement: Neutralize 30 Gang Members in 2 minutes using grenades and the AK47.

 

Rampage #4

 

Location: Great Chaparral

Requirement: Neutralize 35 Attacking Soldiers in 3 minutes using the grenade launcher and the AK47.

 

Rampage #5

 

Location: Mirror Park

Requirement: Neutralize 20 Killer Hipsters in 2 minutes using grenades and the sawn-off shotgun.

05c.jpg  Kifflom! (S)

Complete your path to enlightenment... or not.

 

[MISSABLE] This trophy is missable if you have not unlocked it by the time you get to the final mission. You must choose "Option C" when offered the choice, after which this trophy is no longer missable. An even more serious problem is that this trophy is [GLITCHED]. Many people are reporting an issue with Step 7 not progressing like it should as after stealing all the cars they never get the email to proceed to Step 8. For more detailed information see Step 7.5 below. Note: This issue was fixed with Patch 1.01.

 

This is a relatively complex trophy, you are required to complete numerous side-quests for the Epsilon Program. To begin with you need to be playing as Michael and have a total of $90,500 to earn this trophy, however, completing the final mission can net you as much as $2,100,000 so it is well worth the investment.

 

This mission will be detailed in small steps, if you wish to make use of the video then clicking the timestamp next to each step will take you to that specific step in the video.

 

 

Step 1 

 

 

Open the internet browser of your in-game phone by pressing :up: then go to the Epsilon website by typing in "epsilonprogram.com". Once there scroll down, click "Evaluate Your identity" and complete the evaluation. It doesn't matter which answers you pick, the end result is the same.

 

Step 2 

 

 

A blue-question-mark.png  icon will show up in Raton Canyon after a while (about 12 in-game hours) so travel there.

 

Step 3 

 

 

Approach the red truck and watch the cutscene, afterwards you will get an e-mail. Open the attached link by pressing :square: and donate $500 to the Epsilon website.

 

Step 4 

 

 

The Epsilon symbol (kifflom.png ) will appear on the map after around 12 in-game hours have elapsed. Go back to your safehouse and choose to sleep a few times and it should appear on your map. When it does, go there.

 

Step 5 

 

 

After the cutscene you will get another e-mail, open the link and this time donate $5,000 to the Epsilon website.

 

Step 6 

 

 

Go to the next kifflom.png  (again, this will take a while until it shows up on your map).

 

Step 7.1 

 

 

You will now need to collect 5 vehicles for the Epsilon Program. Luckily, they all have fixed spawns. Once you find a vehicle, take it to the kifflom.png  symbol that appears and park it in the garage. The vehicles can be collected in any order you like but this order will follow the video.

 

The first vehicle is the Declasse Tornado which can be found here:

 

Xjw55vP.png?1

 

NoJVdTI.png?1

 

Step 7.2 

 

 

The second vehicle is the Pegassi Vacca, found here:

 

rlP0VOb.png?1

 

AdMFDTp.png?1

 

Step 7.3 

 

 

The third vehicle is the Benefactor Surano, found here:

 

a3WwBFT.png?1

 

jk4rJSc.png?1

 

Step 7.4 

 

 

The fourth vehicle is the Enus Super Diamond, found here:

 

cwEeaN0.png?1

 

dkS6NMt.png?1

 

Step 7.5 

 

 

Make sure you create a new save file before you pick up this vehicle!

 

This is where the trophy can glitch, as after you deliver it to the Epsilon garage there is a chance that you will never get the email which leads you to Step 8. If you deliver this vehicle and never get the email, reload your save and keep trying until you can progress [Fixed with Patch 1.01].

 

The fifth vehicle is the Dinka Double-T, found here:

 

tThAA6o.png?1

 

i5XC83t.png?1

 

Step 8 

 

 

Travel to the next kifflom.png  icon after waiting a short while.

 

Step 9 

 

 

Complete the mission by searching for three items (a TV, a car battery and a shoe) with the extraterrestrial device provided. Hold :l2: to aim it and (if you are going in the right direction) the closer you get to the item the more the blue bars on the device will fill up, the beeping noise will become more rapid and your controller will vibrate quicker.

 

Step 10 

 

 

Donate $10,000 to the Epsilon website (two donations of $5,000).

 

Step 11 

 

 

Go to the next kifflom.png  symbol after sleeping a few times.

 

Step 12 

 

 

After the cutscene you will get another email. Open the attached link with :square: and buy the Robes for $25,000 from the Epsilon website by clicking on the "Click here to purchase official Epsilon Robes set" link then "Buy Robes".

 

Step 13 

 

 

After the robes have been delivered to Michael's house in Vinewood (this takes 24 hours), get them from Michael's wardrobe under the "Outfits" tab. You need to wear them for 10 cumulative days, the easiest way to do this is to keep going to sleep until 10 days have passed at which point you will get an email leading to the next step.

 

Do not switch characters during the 10 day period as it is highly likely that Michael will have changed out of the robes into his normal clothes once you switch back.

 

Step 14 

 

 

Go to the next kifflom.png  symbol after wearing the robes for 10 days.

 

Step 15 

 

 

Complete the mission when you get there, which is extremely simple and requires you to deliver the plane to Jimmy Boston at a nearby airfield.

 

Step 16 

 

 

Go to the next kifflom.png  icon after sleeping a few times.

 

Step 17 

 

 

You will have to walk (or run) 5 miles in the desert wearing Epsilon robes. You know you are in the right place when you get a notification saying "Now inside the Epsilonism pilgrimage zone". To rack up 5 miles you can either: Stand at one end of the desert and set your waypoint at the other then run back and forth or you can rubber-band your controller so that you don't have to do it yourself. After you have travelled 5 miles, a notification saying "5 miles walked in the desert - pilgrimage complete" will pop up in the bottom left corner and you will get a phone call.

 

Step 18 

 

 

Go to the final kifflom.png  icon, which will appear immediately this time.

 

Step 19 

 

 

Finish the mission, there are three ways of going about this and completing any of the three will give you the trophy:

 

A) Deliver the vehicle to the target destination - The reward is an old rusty tractor.

 

B) Escape with the blue Epsilon car before going to the target destination - You receive $1,000,000.

 

C) Kill everyone at the target destination and escape the cops - You get all of the money ($2,100,000) and fulfil the Gold Medal criteria. You have to initiate the shoot-out with the Epsilon guards yourself.

 

It is recommended to go for "C" to get a good return on both your time and monetary investment in this long side-quest. Bear in mind that you cannot replay this mission and choose another option for the money so make sure you kill everyone the first time if you want to go down that route.

daf.jpg  Three Man Army (B)

Survive 3 minutes on at least a 3 star Wanted Level with all three characters together off mission.

 

[MISSABLE] This trophy can be missed if you have not unlocked it by the time you get to the final mission. Make sure you choose "Option C" when offered the choice, after which this trophy is no longer missable.

 

Before you can do this you must complete the story mission "Fame or Shame" to be able to have all 3 characters hang out together. After that you can call the other two characters via the "Contacts" icon in the in-game mobile phone. Make sure you call both other characters immediately before picking them up, because if you pick one up first before you call the other then you will get a "busy" tone on your phone.

 

Pick your friends up with any four door car by going to their location on the map (shown by the friend.png icon) and beeping the horn with :l3:, then head to the Los Santos International Airport at the southern end of the map. Once you enter the airfield you will immediately get a 3-star wanted level. Keep driving from one end of the airport to the other and make sure that you don't lose the cops. It would also be highly advantageous to upgrade your car with the bulletproof tires and armour from any Los Santos Customs shop to make this a little easier. After 3 minutes of driving round the airport this trophy will unlock.

 

Here is a video showing this method:

 

 

0bc.jpg  Out of Your Depth (B)

You're gonna need a bigger boat...

 

For this trophy you will need to be eaten by a shark. Sharks spawn randomly in deep water, go out into the ocean with a boat or jet-ski and watch your mini-map until the area around you turns completely dark blue. Keep navigating the boat or swim around. After a while you should see a red dot on your radar representing a shark, jump into the water and wait until it kills you. This may take some time as the shark doesn't spot you right away so keep swimming around until it eventually kills you and you earn the trophy. On rare occasions the shark will actually attack the boat/jet-ski you are on and kill you that way.

 

Being killed will set you back 5% of your total income up to a maximum fee of $5,000 so if you want to save your money, you should make a new save and reload after you have the trophy.

 

Please see the video below for a video walkthrough of this trophy:

 

 

864.jpg  Altruist Acolyte (B)

Deliver an unsuspecting victim to the Altruist Cult.

 

[MISSABLE] This trophy can be missed if you have not unlocked it by the time you get to the final mission. Make sure you choose "Option C" when offered the choice. Furthermore there are only a select few Random Events which provide you with an opportunity to deliver a victim so even if "Option C" is selected, this can still be easily missed.

 

Only Trevor can deliver people to the Altruist Cult as the Cult's location won't trigger with another character. A Random Event occurs when you are driving or walking around and your mini-map flashes white and a blue (representing an ally) or red (representing an enemy) blip appears on your map. For this trophy you are looking for any of the following, these are confirmed to work for this trophy as long as you are playing as Trevor:

  • Domestic
  • Hitch Lift (x4)
  • Drunk Driver (x2)

The Random Events have fixed locations, the easiest one to attempt this trophy is the "Hitch Lift" mission found at this location on the southern foot of Mount Chiliad:

 

6TNHugh.jpg?1

 

If you cannot find the hitchhiker, simply drive in another direction for a short while and return. The event will spawn sooner or later if you keep doing this.

 

Once you pick up the hitchhiker he will ask you to drop him off somewhere. Instead of going to the target destination you must drive to the Altruist Cult marked by the altruist-cult.png icon on your map, this will be on the West side of Mount Chiliad and will only show up once the hitchhiker is in the car. Set your waypoint on this location and follow the purple route up to the camp. Wait for the gates to open and a scene will play, after which you will earn some money and this trophy.

 

Here is a video showing how to earn this trophy:

 

 

842.jpg  A Lot of Cheddar (B)

Spend a total of $200 million across all three characters.

 

This trophy requires you to spend a grand total of $200 million whether it be on weapons, cars, vehicle mods, property, shares etc. You must also buy at least one thing with each character for it to unlock. It is best to do this trophy after you complete the heist near the end of the game called "Big Score" as each character will have a large chunk of money in excess of $25 million. To look up how much cash you have spent in total go to the "Cash" tab in the "Stats" section of the pause menu.

 

Luckily there is an extremely easy way of spending $200 million. Open your mobile phone with :up:, then choose "Internet" and select the "Money and Services" tab. Open the LCN stock exchange website and invest all of your money in the stocks of any company in the list (the more expensive the stock, the quicker it will be to buy them all) under the "Markets" tab. You can do this by selecting "Buy" then hovering your cursor over the green "+" symbol and holding down :cross: until you have spent all your money. Press "Buy" again then "Confirm" and finally "Continue" to complete the transaction. As soon as you have done so, choose "Sell All" and "Confirm" to sell all the stocks back again and get your money back. Repeat the process as many times as necessary until you have "spent" $200 million. You won't lose any money if you sell the stocks quick enough, but it still counts towards the spending for the trophy.

 

Here is a video showing this method:

 

 

By far the best way of making money in the game is to take advantage of company stocks with Lester's assassination missions. Before you undertake each assassination mission, swap between all three characters and purchase as many stocks as you can from the following companies:

 

Hotel Assassination - Betta Pharmaceuticals (BAWSAQ stocks)

Multi-Target Assassination - Debonaire (LCN stocks)

Vice Assassination - Fruit (BAWSAQ stocks)

Bus Assassination - Vapid (BAWSAQ stocks)*

Construction Assassination - GoldCoast (LCN stocks)

 

*This mission is slightly different as you should buy the stocks just after the mission when prices plummet, they will rise again soon after.

 

After waiting a few in-game days, sell all of the stocks of these companies which each character and you will make a huge profit. This is because the assassination missions have you take out certain competitors of the above-mentioned companies, which will greatly boost up their market value. For a more detailed description of this method, see the following thread: https://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/grand-theft-auto-v/211290-how-make-up-1-5-billion-lesters-assassination-missions.html

911.jpg  Trading Pure Alpha (B)

Make a profit over your total investments in the stock market.

 

For this trophy you will need to turn a profit in the stock market, just one stock is sufficient. For information on how to purchase stocks, please see the A Lot Of Cheddar trophy. After a couple of in-game hours, the price of your purchased stocks will have changed. A profit is indicated by a green "up" arrow in your portfolio, whilst a decrease in value will be represented by a red "down" arrow. Sell any of your stocks that are making a profit and the trophy will unlock.

 

A guaranteed method to earn this trophy is by exploiting Lester's assassination missions with the method listed under A Lot of Cheddar. Another easy way is to complete the Random Events that flash up on your mini-map as you drive around. If you help people out, you will occasionally get lucky and one will email you revealing that they are actually rich and as way of thanks will give you stocks in their company. Go to your stock portfolio and immediately sell the stocks you were given and the trophy will unlock, despite the fact you didn't buy any of them.

 

f26.jpg  Pimp My Sidearm (B)

Fully mod a weapon.

 

This is a very simple trophy and can be earned either online, or in single-player as soon as you complete the "Complications" story mission as Michael. You will only need $3,381 which you should have by this point. Simply go to any Ammu-Nation store, select "Pistol" and buy the following to unlock this trophy:

  • Extended Clip - $387
  • Flashlight - $472
  • Suppressor - $1822
  • Army Tint - $100
  • LSPD Tint - $600

Furthermore you can even earn this trophy for free. If you have the Special/Collector's Edition of the game, you will receive the Pistol .50 and the Bullpup Shotgun for free as soon as you enter an Ammu-Nation store. Simply "buy" all available attachments (they're all free) for either of these to unlock this trophy. Similarly, linking your PSN ID to the Rockstar Social Club will unlock the Assault SMG and all attachments for that will be free to.

 

[AUTOPOP] If you import an existing character from PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 with which you've already attained this trophy, begin an activity such as a race and you'll unlock the trophy.

 

d44.jpg  Wanted: Alive or Alive (B)

Deliver a bail bond target alive.

 

[MISSABLE] This trophy can be missed if you have not unlocked it by the time you get to the final mission and choose an option other than "Option C". Furthermore there are only four bail bond targets which provide you with an opportunity to earn this trophy so even if "Option C" is selected, this can still be easily missed.

 

Bail bond missions are only available to Trevor. After doing the story mission "Mr. Philips", travel to the orange-question-mark.png icon North-East of Sandy Shores:

 

k6rHdRa.png?1

 

Once there, you will meet Maude and unlock the bail bond side missions. Go back to your safehouse and sleep. When you wake up you should receive an email with details about your first target named Ralph Ostrowsk. To find him you need to head east to the "Davis Quartz" quarry area as shown here:

 

cMKvX7K.png?1

 

After you locate the target use the quick save feature as insurance against accidentally killing him. Now quickly shoot the tires of his car and when he tries to run away just chase and shoot him with the stun gun (which can be purchased from any Ammu-Nation store for $90 or received automatically during the first "Civil Border Patrol Strangers & Freaks mission) or if you don't have one, punch him by holding :l2: and pressing :circle:. You can even try running him over with your car but only touch him lightly otherwise he will die. He should surrender after this, he will then enter your car automatically and you need to drive back to Maude. After you hand the bail bond target over to Maude the trophy will unlock.

 

There are a total of four bail bond missions and they aren't replayable so you only have a few more chances if you fail at this first attempt. They are:

 

  • Bail Bond Target #2: Larry Tupper - In front of the giant barn in the Grand Senora Desert.
  • Bail Bond Target #3: Glenn Scoville - Parachuting off the summit of Mount Chiliad.
  • Bail Bond Target #4: Curtis Weaver - In the homeless camp by the foot of Mount Chiliad.

Here is a video walkthrough:

 

 

111.jpg  Los Santos Customs (B)

Fully mod a vehicle.

 

This trophy can be done either Online or in single-player. If done offline, in order to mod a vehicle you must first beat the story mission "Father/Son" to unlock the "Los Santos Customs" shops, located at the los-santos-customs.png icon on the map. You will then need quite a bit of money ($60,000 to be safe) to fully upgrade a vehicle. Not all vehicles can be modified for this trophy, only those which have every type of upgrade available to purchase. Some cars that are eligible will have different upgrade categories to others so you will still need to buy something from every category that's unique to that car.

 

If you have bought the "Los Santos Customs" property with Franklin for $349,000 then all mods and upgrades are free, however, this total is substantially more than the maximum you should have to pay so we have decided to list the absolute cheapest way to earn this trophy (assuming you have not bought the property). Also bear in mind that you can save your game before buying the car and upgrades, then simply reload after the trophy has popped to avoid any monetary loss.

 

There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding using the three main characters' default cars. Some people have said that they got this trophy by modding them but many more have said that this never worked, therefore we have chosen to list a different car that is guaranteed to unlock this trophy.

 

To begin press :up: to bring up your mobile phone, select "Internet" => "Travel & Transport" => "Southern San Andreas Super Autos" and buy the Weeny Issi (any colour will do) for $18,000 and retrieve it from your garage. This is also the same car that Michael's daughter Tracey drives, so you can get one for free from the driveway at his house in Vinewood as it spawns fairly frequently.

 

Now enter any "Los Santos Customs" shop and buy the following upgrades:

 

1. Armor -- Armor Upgrade 20%

2. Brakes -- Street Brakes

3. Brakes -- Sport Brakes

4. Bumpers -- Custom Front Splitter

5. Bumpers -- Custom Rear Bumper

6. Engine -- EMS Upgrade, Level 1

7. Exhaust -- Dual Exit Exhaust

8. Hood -- Vented Hood

9. Horn -- Truck Horn

10. Lights -- Xenon Lights

11. Plate -- Blue on White 2

12. Respray -- Primary Color -- Chrome

13. Repsray -- Secondary Color -- Chrome

14. Skirts -- Custom Skirts

15. Suspension -- Lowered Suspension

16. Transmission -- Street Transmission

17. Turbo -- Turbo Tuning

18. Wheels -- Wheel Type -- SUV -- Benefactor

19. Wheels -- Wheel Color -- Black

20. Wheels -- Wheel Accessories -- Custom Tires

21. Wheels -- Wheel Accessories -- Bulletproof Tires

22. Wheels -- Wheel Accessories -- Black Tire Smoke

23. Windows -- Light Smoke

 

Once you have bought all of the above, leave the shop to unlock the trophy. You must leave the shop otherwise the trophy won't unlock. Please see the video below for a video walkthrough of this trophy:

 

[AUTOPOP] If you import an existing character from PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 with which you've already attained this trophy, complete an activity such as a race and you'll unlock the trophy.

445.jpg  From Beyond the Stars (B)

Collect and return all spaceship parts.

 

There are 50 Spaceship Parts in GTA V. In order for the Spaceship Parts to spawn on the map, you must first complete the main story mission "Fame or Shame" (Mission 19 of 69) and then start the Freaks & Strangers side-mission "Far Out" by talking to Omega. He can only be found by Franklin and is located at the green-question-mark.png  in Sandy Shores as shown below:

 

Qc3qjSX.jpg

 

Once you have found all 50 Parts, return to Omega as Franklin for a cutscene, after which the trophy will unlock. Note: The Parts can be found by any of the three characters, but only Franklin can begin and finish the mission.

 

The Spaceship Parts are small rectangular glowing objects that emit a resonating vibration sound when you get close to them. As with all collectibles in the game, you need only walk over them to pick them up. Beware that 6 of them can only be reached with a helicopter. If you are having trouble locating some of the Parts, you can use Chop (as Franklin) to locate them for you. Stand next to him and press :l2:, from the list of options choose to take him for a walk with :r2:. When you are walking, press :r1: to send him out to find "pick ups" and if there is a collectible nearby he will run off and stand next to it. Follow the bone icon on the mini-map and the collectible will be there.

 

On extremely rare occasions a Spaceship Part may not be where it should be. If this occurs, switch characters then back again and it should be there.

 

Please see the video below for the locations of all Spaceship Parts or check the 100% Completion Guide & Checklist for a map showing the locations of all Parts, plus text descriptions with accompanying screenshots.

 

 

000.jpg  A Mystery, Solved (B)

Solve the mystery of Leonora Johnson.

 

There are 50 Letter Scraps to collect in GTA V and they appear as soon as the game starts and can be picked up by all the three characters. Once you find all 50 you must go (as Franklin) to the green-question-mark.png  labelled "Killer" located here:

 

ZymbISp.jpg

 

There you will meet a character and the Strangers & Freaks mission "A Starlet In Vinewood" will begin. Simply chase and kill him in order to complete the Strangers mission, after which this trophy will pop.

 

The Letter Scraps are small, glowing pieces of paper. Just like with the Spaceship Parts some of them can only be reached with a helicopter. If you are having trouble locating some of the Scraps, you can use Chop (as Franklin) to locate them for you. Stand next to him and press :l2:, from the list of options choose to take him for a walk with :r2:. When you are walking, press :r1: to send him out to find "pick ups" and if there is a collectible nearby he will run off and stand next to it. Follow the bone icon on the mini-map and the collectible will be there.

 

On extremely rare occasions a Letter Scrap may not be where it should be. If this occurs, switch characters then back again and it should be there.

 

For the location of all the Letter Scraps please see the video below or the 100% Completion Guide & Checklist for a map showing the locations of all Letter Scraps, plus text descriptions with accompanying screenshots.

 

 

7e4.jpg  Waste Management (B)

Purchase the old dock and collect all nuclear waste.

 

There are 30 Nuclear Waste collectibles in GTA V. To collect them you need to buy the Sonar Collections Dock, which is available for $250,000 after completing the main story mission "The Merryweather Heist". The dock can be bought with any character and is found here:

 

0bndbSV.jpg

 

The Nuclear Waste collectibles are bright yellow and glow brightly underwater. They are all found at the bottom of the ocean and they can only be picked up by driving into them in a submarine, which will always spawn at the dock once the property has been bought. To control the sub press :r2: to accelerate, :l2: to brake and reverse, then :cross: and :square: to ascend and descend respectively.

 

Buying the property will also give you a new app called "Trackify" which starts automatically when entering the submarine. The app works like sonar, showing a red blip on your mini-map that you must follow until you reach the Waste. On extremely rare occasions one of the Nuclear Waste items may not be where it should be. If this occurs, switch characters then back again and it should be there.

 

See the following video for the locations of all the Nuclear Waste (the order in the video matches the order on the Trackify app) or use the collectible map provided in the 100% Completion Guide & Checklist.

 

 

Each piece of Nuclear Waste you pick up will net you $23,000 per barrel and a lump sum of $250,000 once all 30 are collected. The funds will be added to your weekly income from the property.

76d.jpg  Show Off (B)

Complete all Stunt Jumps.

 

There are 50 Stunt Jumps in GTA V and they are easily the trickiest "collectibles" in the game. You must always land in a specific spot and on all four wheels at the same time (both wheels on a motorbike), without touching anything mid-air. If you drive too fast and overshoot or drive too slowly and fail to reach the target landing area, the jump will not be registered. The game inconveniently does not tell you where the specific landing area is so many jumps will require numerous retries.

 

Make sure that you get the notification on your screen saying "Stunt Jump completed!" before you move on to the next one. This flashes up for a short period of time and if you miss it, there is no way to check which ones you have missed (either in-game or via the Rockstar Social Club). This will prevent endless frustration having to retry every jump to find the one you're missing.

 

With this temperamental system in mind, it is highly recommended that you make use of the quick save feature (accessed from the main menu of your mobile phone by pressing :up:) before you attempt every jump. After loading the quick save (by pausing, selecting the "Game" tab then "Load Game") you will be with your vehicle again and will be at the exact same spot where you saved the game. This way you will save lots of time otherwise spent finding a new vehicle or lining up the jump again. Try to quick save whilst you are actually driving as the game, more often than not, respawns you without your vehicle if you saved whilst parked up before the jump. However, if you quick save when driving you will always be in or on your vehicle when reloading.

 

It is best to do the Stunt Jumps whilst playing as Franklin. You can trigger his special ability by pressing :l3: and :r3: simultaneously to slow down time while driving, which will come in very handy for precise manoeuvring during these stunts. Furthermore, you can make adjustments to the vehicle's direction in mid-air by moving the :ls:. Use this to land on all four (or two) wheels and to avoid any obstacles in the jump.

 

The best vehicle for the majority of the Stunt Jumps is the Pegassi Bati 801 motorbike which can be bought from the vehicle dealership on your mobile phone (go to "Internet" => "Travel & Transport") for $10,000 whilst any of the fast sports cars found in the Vinewood area will usually suffice. For some of the more precise jumps, a car that handles exceptionally well (such as the Taxi) is more preferable than speed. If you find yourself stuck at a jump use the same type of vehicle that is shown in the video, which can be seen below:

 

 

Please check the 100% Completion Guide & Checklist for a map showing the locations of all Stunt Jumps and timelinks for each specific jump.

 

[AUTOPOP] This trophy might Autopop for you for some reason after you complete an activity such as a race, without even having completed all Stunt Jumps in GTA Online. It is unknown exacly how or why, but it might be because you've already completed them in Single-Player on PlayStation 3 and have the data on your Social Club account.

Complete all Under the Bridge and Knife Flight challenges.

 

Under The Bridges

 

There are 50 bridges that you must fly under across the map. First off, get a Maverick helicopter from the roof of the South Los Santos Hospital. If the Maverick doesn't spawn, go down the ladder to the street and up to the helipad again until it does. All 50 Under the Bridges can be finished with this helicopter and most are very easy, but there are a few tricky ones with very little room to manoeuvre. If you can't do these with the Maverick, the best helicopter for them is the Buzzard as it is smaller. This is located in Fort Zancudo or can be bought for $2 million from the "Warstock Cash & Carry" dealership on your phone.

 

For all of the bridges we strongly advise you make use of the quick save feature when you are approaching one, just in case something goes wrong. Therefore if something goes wrong and you hit the bridge or the challenge does not register, you can quickly reload and try again. It is also highly recommended you max out the "Flying" statistic of one of your characters first by completing the lessons at the Flight School at the Los Santos International Airport (Trevor will be nearly maxed out when you gain control of him in the story). This will greatly help with stability and control for the delicate movements.

 

You must not touch the sides of the bridges at all with your rotor blades, otherwise the challenge will not register. Only move on to the next bridge once an on-screen notification appears saying "Under The Bridge Completed!"

 

 

Knife Flights

 

There are 15 Knife Flight challenges in the game. A Knife Flight is when you tilt a plane on its side so that the wings are vertical, and to complete a "challenge" you have to do this manoeuvre between two buildings. Use the :ls: to tilt your plane on its side, then use the rudders with :l1: and :r1: to maintain altitude and balance.

 

The best aircraft to do all of the challenges with is the fighter jet due to its speed, although the stunt airplane that occasionally appear at the McKenzie Field Hangar might be useful if you are struggling with the trickier challenges due to it being thinner and having the more precise control overall. However, it is much slower so you have to maintain your position and balance for a much longer period. The fighter jet can be found at Fort Zancudo, the military base in the west of San Andreas. You will automatically get a 4-star wanted level when you enter the base so make a quick save beforehand as it will likely take a few tries to successfully steal the jet.

 

As with "Under The Bridges", it is highly recommended you use a character with a maxed out "Flying" statistic to give you more control over your aircraft. Completing the "Knife Flights" lesson at the Flight School is also good preparation for these challenges as the tutorial tells you exactly what to do. Most importantly, remember to quick save just before you attempt a challenge so you can easily restart if the attempt goes awry. Only move onto the next challenge once "Knife Flight Completed!" appears on your screen.

 

Please check the 100% Completion Guide & Checklist for maps showing the locations of all "Under The Bridges" and "Knife Flight" challenges.

52e.jpg  Off the Plane (B)

GTA Online: Complete the Introduction.

 

The first thing you will have to do when accessing GTA Online for the first time is design your character. You can adjust the various "Heritage" options to tweak the facial appearance and gender of your character, choose "Lifestyle" to adjust your various starting stats, and finally "Appearance" for the more physical characteristics like age, hair and clothes. Once this is done, select "Save & Continue". After this, the introductory cutscene will play accompanied by the credits.

 

Lamar will pick your character up from the Los Santos International Airport, say a few welcoming words and give you your first weapon. He will drive you to a house and drop you off. As soon as you get out of the car, this trophy will pop.

GTA Online: Reach Rank 25.

 

Please see Above the Law for more information. You will need 127,100 RP to reach Rank 25.

 

8bc.jpg  Making Moves (S)

GTA Online: Reach Rank 50.

 

Please see Above the Law for more information. You will need 448,800 RP to reach Rank 50.

 

f04.jpg  Above the Law (G)

GTA Online: Reach Rank 100.

 

In order to reach Rank 100, you will need exactly 1,583,380 RP. Practically every activity in GTA Online will reward you with RP (Reputation Points), whether it be larger hauls from Jobs such as missions and races or smaller boosts from miscellaneous acts like holding up stores and losing Wanted Level stars. There is no escaping the fact that this is a long and arduous grind that will by no means come quickly. There are a couple of things to bear in mind:

 

1: Completing a mission as a team as opposed to solo will give you a 20% increase in your RP reward for that mission and if a member of that team is in the same Crew as you, you will receive a further 10% boost.

 

2: Setting the difficulty to "Hard" in the pre-mission options will also give you a 1.5x RP boost upon completion.

 

Since Patch 1.06, almost all avenues of boosting RP quickly and efficiently have been removed by Rockstar. Therefore, reaching Rank 100 is an extremely long grind that will easily take upwards of 100 hours just if you are solidly doing Jobs and performing well in them. There are a few RP exploits that get found, which is to be expected with an Online mode of this size, but Rockstar are extremely diligent and as soon as they are found and posted on the Internet (such as on Youtube or their own forums), they will act very quickly to remove them.

 

Exploits usually appear after new patches, so my advice would be to closely monitor the GTA V forum of this site and this thread in particular to see if any new exploits appear. Then, get onto them as quickly as possible because the better and faster they are, the quicker they will be removed. Similarly, keep an eye out for Double XP weekends and use them to your advantage to lessen the grind.

 

71a.jpg  Numero Uno (B)

GTA Online: Obtain first place in all competitive game types.

 

There are numerous competitive game types that you must obtain first place in. The complete list is as follows:

  • Deathmatch
  • Team Deathmatch
  • Air Race
  • Land Race - Standard
  • Land Race - GTA
  • Land Race - Rally (either as Driver or Co-Driver).
  • Sea Race
  • Arm Wrestling - Minimum one round.
  • Darts - Minimum 1 leg.
  • Golf - Minimum 1 hole.
  • Tennis - Minimum 1 set.
  • Shooting Range - Win any one of a Cover Target, Random Target or Target Grid match.
  • Parachuting - Get the highest score and touch the ground first.
  • Complete a Gang Attack.
  • Complete all 10 waves of Survival Mode.

Thankfully all of the above can be easily boosted with a single friend or boosting partner in an "Invite Only Session", with the exception of the Rally race and Team Deathmatch which require a minimum of 4 each. Survival Mode and Gang Attack can be done in a Solo Session once you attain Rank 15 and 18 respectively. If boosting, once everyone is in the Private Session you can start any of the race types immediately by pausing, then selecting "Online => Jobs => Host Job => Rockstar Created => Races => *Select Race*". Similarly, you can access Deathmatches by the same method, swapping "Races" in the selection process with "Deathmatches". All other activities must be activated by travelling to their respective icons on the map and hosting that way.

 

The earliest point at which you can complete this trophy is Rank 18 as that is when Gang Attacks are unlocked. To check which game types you have already won, pause and go to "Stats => Awards => Victory" to see an overview of your medal progress for each specific game type. Not all of the medals in this category denote objectives required to earn this trophy, only those which specifically register the number of wins in the game types listed above.

588.jpg  The Midnight Club (B)

GTA Online: Use custom vehicles to win 5 races.

 

After completing the tutorial missions in the beginning of GTA Online, you will unlock the Los Santos Customs shops (los-santos-customs.png ) on your map. Simeon will call and tell you to steal a car that you can use as your own personalised vehicle. Steal any car except a "premium vehicle" (basically any except the fast sports cars) and make sure it is customizable. Now bring it back to the Los Santos Customs shop and add a tracker and insurance, all of which are free the first time. This will be your personal insured vehicle and can be used in Land Races.

 

Shortly after getting the car, Land Races will be shown all over the map and represented by the online-race.png  icon. Go to one of these icons and choose to host a race, making sure you enable "Custom Vehicles: ON" in the race settings and set "Vehicle Class" to the same class as your vehicle. For example, if you are driving a Coupe, you must choose "Coupe" as the vehicle class. If the class you choose does not match with the class of your insured vehicle, it will not be available to select. To see which class your own vehicle belongs to, simply press :down: while driving. Behind the car's name it shows the vehicle type in the bottom-right corner of the screen. This trophy will not unlock in "Solo Session" so you must boost it with a friend or do it legitimately.

 

Once hosting, wait until at least one other person has joined the match and choose your own customised vehicle in vehicle select. You need to win 5 races using any custom vehicle, you do not have to win all 5 races with the same vehicle.

 

This can also be boosted very easily in a private lobby. Invite a friend to the race, set the number of laps to "1", choose a very short track like "Criminal Records" and then beat them 5 times. After the race, you can elect to "Replay" it by selecting the option in the bottom-left corner after the race is over. This will restart the race with the exact same settings so the wins will come very quickly.

399.jpg  Unnatural Selection (B)

GTA Online: Complete all 10 waves of a Survival.

 

Survival is a wave-based mode that sees you battle increasingly difficult enemies for a maximum of 10 waves. It is first available once you reach Rank 15 when Ron calls you informing you of a commotion at the Industrial Plant. It is mandatory to go there and participate in your first Survival match after which they are available to play at any time, however, it is possible to earn this trophy earlier by having a friend who is Rank 15 or above invite you to a Survival lobby.

 

Survival mode, even with 4 players, can be very tough as enemies get stronger with each wave that goes by in terms of both health and weaponry, though their A.I behaviour and numbers don't alter. Furthermore armoured SUVs and Buzzard helicopters are introduced later on to increase the difficulty, however, there is an exploit on one of the maps which makes completing all 10 waves ridiculously easy.

 

Firstly, you should visit any Ammu-Nation store in preparation and stock up on ammo. You take into each Survival match what you have in your inventory at the time so it is wise to be prepared rather than run out mid-wave, then press :start: and select "Online => Jobs => Host Job => Rockstar Created => Survival" and select the "Boneyard" map.

 

Immediately as the first wave starts, look to your right to spot a grey portacabin in front of a red wall. In between these two structures is a very narrow gap, which is where you will camp for the entirety of the 10 waves. For some inexplicable reason, if you position yourself here all of the enemies will spawn in front of you and run into your line of sight repeatedly. All you have to do is hug the wall of the portacabin by pressing :r2: then move along it with :lsleft: and :lsright: depending on which direction the enemies are coming from on your mini-map, then stick your head out to aim and pick them off using the "Traditional GTA" targeting mode. On rare occasions an enemy will reach the red wall and have a clear shot at you but instead of taking a shot, for some reason they prefer to either take cover behind the rocks on the right-hand side or the wall on the left-hand side so these should be of little trouble.

 

A Buzzard helicopter will appear on waves 4 and 7 in solo, but they pose little threat as they can't shoot you in your narrow space. When they fly overhead and away from you, pop out of cover and try to shoot the pilot to bring it down instantly. It can be difficult to hit him though so you may prefer to shoot the helicopter until it crashes. The SUVs pose no threat as the enemies will conveniently park up in front of you in the open and climb out, just pick them off easily or throw sticky bombs/grenades at the vehicles to blow them up instantly.

 

If you find yourself needing supplies, it is advised to wait until there is one enemy left (a notification at the bottom of the screen will tell you this) and then going around the battlefield carefully avoiding him while mopping up weapons, ammo, health and body armour if you need it. You have 20 seconds to do this in between waves anyway, but sometimes you can be pushing it a little tight and the last thing you need is to be caught out in the open when the next wave starts.

 

Using this method I (Krid) completed all 10 waves solo and was only shot a handful of times but never enough to even deplete my body armour. It may, however, be advisable to do this with a partner (with each person guarding one end of the portacabin), simply for the security just in case something does go awry like running out of ammo mid-wave or even dying. With multiple players, if one player dies then they will be resurrected at the end of the wave if the other survives. Using this method with 3-4 players is still very possible, but is ill-advised due to the large increase in enemy numbers and the fact that there is little room in the narrow gap for the extra players to be of any use.

 

One time only during a Survival match, you can call in helicopter support to assist you one time only. This is done by calling "Merryweather" from the Contacts section of your in-game phone for a cost of $5,000. This will also net you the Dialling Digits (B) trophy if you haven't got it already. Thanks to JHChiBulls for this tip.

b0d.jpg  Backseat Driver (B)

GTA Online: Direct a driver to 1st place as co-driver in Rally Mode.

 

To participate in a Rally, you must travel to any of the blue "Land Race" icons (online-race.png) on the map, host a session then choose Race Type: Rally Mode. You will need 4 players for this trophy as the match won't start with uneven teams so it is best to do it in a private session and invite three friends or boosting partners to join you.

 

Once you have four people, select your "Preferred Partner" (which can be anyone, assuming you are going to swap wins) and most importantly, next to "Preferred Role", select "Co-Driver". You must be the co-driver for this trophy to unlock. None of the other settings matter, so choose whichever you like.

 

Rallying works similar to real-life, where the co-driver directs the driver and communication is paramount. The driver's screen shows no race checkpoints, so it is up the co-driver to direct him in the right direction. This is most easily done with a PS3 headset or another voice chat service like Skype, but can also be done with the :left: and :right: buttons on the D-pad. Pressing these buttons will bring up a corresponding yellow directional arrow on the left or right side of the driver's screen to tell him when to turn. Simply direct the driver to the finish line first and the trophy will unlock.

 

An even easier method is to do a race in Rally Mode on the "Criminal Records" track. This is a simple circular track going in a clockwise direction so you don't even need to direct the driver to win as the course is obvious.

GTA Online: Survive with a Bounty on your head.

 

***Unachievable in PS3 version***

 

Shortly after reaching Rank 10 you will receive a call from Lester while driving around in the open world in Multiplayer. Lester will ask you to come to his home, marked with a white "L" on the map. Go there and watch the cutscene to unlock the ability to place bounties on other players' heads. To do so, access the "Contacts" app from your in-game phone and then call Lester. Select the option "Set Bounty" and select then choose a player from your session to place a bounty upon. The minimum cash you need to place a bounty on a player's head is $2,000 ($1,000 for the bounty and $1,000 for Lester's cut).

 

The easiest way to earn this trophy is by inviting a friend or a boosting partner to a private session and getting them to place a bounty on your head using the above method. You must be Rank 10 yourself to have a bounty placed on your head, even if the other player has unlocked the ability to set bounties.

 

For the trophy to unlock you must survive with a bounty for 24 in-game hours, plus however long it takes to reach the next hour mark. For example: If someone sets a bounty on you at 12:27pm, you must survive until 1pm the next day. One in-game day is a real-life total of 48 minutes. Participating in activities, races or missions will pause the timer, so the best way to pass the time is by driving or running around the map to avoid timing out (set at 15 minutes of being idle) and leaving the session. One thing you cannot do is camp in your apartment, as the timer will pause as soon as you enter it. If an NPC kills you or you commit suicide, the bounty will not be negated so if you are only with your boosting partner in a session you don't have to worry.

 

To find a boosting partner please click here: http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/grand-theft-auto-v/210338-trophy-boosting-thread-read-first-post.html.

 

There is also a small chance that you might get lucky with this in a solo session. If you steal cars from NPCs (particularly the more expensive "premium" cars), there is a chance that they will place a bounty on your head in revenge. You will get a threatening text message from them then Lester will call you informing you that you have a bounty on your head. Survive for 24 hours (flying around the map is best in solo as the NPC will never find you) and the trophy will be yours.

 

Note: This trophy is unachievable on the PS3 version since Rockstar has disabled bounties on that platform. It is currently unknown if they'll be switched back on, but it seems unlikely.

GTA Online: Finish a Gang Attack without dying and kill at least 10 enemies.

 

Gang Attacks are unlocked at Rank 18 after receiving a call from Martin Madrazzo informing you that gang members are causing trouble in certain areas of San Andreas. From this point onwards when travelling around the world you will see red circles appear on your mini-map indicating where there is a gang presence. These won't appear on the overall map in the pause menu so the only way to find them is by driving around and keeping an eye on your mini-map. There do seem to be some fixed locations, such as the homeless camp under the bridge just south of the shooting range at an Ammu-Nation and the construction site a few blocks to the north-west of it. If one does not appear in these locations, it might be best starting a new session and going back to that location as opposed to driving round aimlessly looking for others.

 

It is preferable to stock up on ammo and buy some body armour before initiating the Gang Attack as even though you can still complete it after respawning, the trophy won't unlock if you die. Once you are ready, go into the red circle and either wait for the enemies to start shooting you or start killing them yourself. Once you do you will have an indicator in the bottom-right corner saying "Remaining: /15" to show you how many enemies are left. Take cover, preferably on the edges of the red circle to avoid being flanked from all sides and be patient. Keep an eye on your enemies' positions on the mini-map and pop out to take them down if they get close. Once they are all dead then, assuming you didn't die, this trophy will pop.

 

This trophy is best attempted solo rather than in a public lobby to ensure that other players don't take too many kills but if you have a friendly partner in a private session, they can kill up to 5 enemies and draw their fire to make it easier for you to survive.

 

Here is a map of all Gang Attacks and the times at which they occur. Thanks to legndorock for supplying it:

GTA Online: Earn 30 Platinum Awards.

 

Platinum Awards are in-game accomplishments that are earned by completing certain challenges in GTA Online. Initially, there were 85 in total, but more have since been added with various updates and only 30 are needed for this trophy, meaning it has gotten easier over time. Most Awards are tier-based (Bronze > Silver > Gold > Platinum) but 22 are one-time only accomplishments that give you a Platinum straight away.

 

Luckily the vast majority of the Awards can be boosted either solo or with 2-4 players in an Invite Only Session. You can check your progress towards the Awards by pausing and selecting "Stats => Awards" and scrolling through the different categories. Similarly, clicking the "Awards" tab in the Rockstar Social Club will take you to a list of all medals and your current progress.

 

Below is a list of awards, and ones marked with an asterisk (*) are the easiest ones we recommend you obtain by yourself in a Solo Session or with a single boosting partner in an Invite Only Session.

 

For a detailed guide for this trophy, please see this thread created by FlutterGuy: http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/grand-theft-auto-v/213370-grand-theft-auto-v-decorated-30-platinum-online-awards-guide.html

9. Smoke 'Em Out* - Get the most kills during a Gang Attack (You can die as many times as you like, so as long as your partner gets less kills than you, you will get this).

10. Bloodiest Of The Bunch - Get the most kills in a 4-player Survival.

11. The Equalizer - Kill a player that has killed you 3 times in Deathmatch 25 times.

 

Weapons

 

These requirements are pretty straightforward yet time-consuming. Only kills on other players count towards these numbers so enemy NPCs in missions won't. If you play a lot of competitive match types, many of these will come naturally.

 

1. Pistol Whipped - 500 Pistol kills.

2. SMG Head - 500 SMG kills.

3. Shotgun Blues - 500 Shotgun kills.

4. Looking Down The Barrel - 500 Assault Rifle kills.

5. Scoping Out - 500 Sniper Rifle.

6. Rapid Fire - 500 Machine Gun kills.

7. Ended In A Sticky Situation - 50 Sticky Bomb kills.

8. Grenade Fiend - 50 Grenade kills.

9. The Rocket Man - 50 RPG kills.

10. The Melee Murderer - 50 Melee kills.

11. The Car Bomber - 50 Vehicle Bomb kills.

 

Heists

 

Since the addition of the Heists update, you can get 5 easy Platinum Medals just for finishing each heist.

GTA Online: Hold up all 20 Stores.

 

It is highly recommended you earn this trophy in Solo, this can be accessed while in Single Player by pressing :start: => Online => GTA Online => Solo Session. If you play in a public session, other plays can hold up stores (which makes them disappear from your map for a while to "regenerate") and can also kill you and steal your money.

 

There are 20 stores around San Andreas and all of them are marked on your map by the store.png  icon. You will learn how to hold up a store as part of the tutorial. You must enter the store and aim a weapon at the shopkeeper to intimidate him and make him empty the cash register, which he will do more quickly if you shout down the headset or fire your weapon into the wall behind him. Once the meter fills up, he will throw a bag of money over the counter and you can leave. What the tutorial doesn't tell you is that if you shoot the cashier in the head immediately, you can go around to the register and empty it yourself with :right:. You only earn around 1/3 of the cash, but this is useful if you need a quick getaway or you are just looking to complete this trophy as quickly as possible. You incur no extra Wanted Level penalty from killing him.

 

As soon as you aim your weapon, you will will have a Wanted Level which starts at 2-stars and increases with the number of consecutive stores you hold up. You do not have to evade the Wanted Level for the store to count as "held up", so even if you die it will count as long as you picked up the bag of money. You can also swap to Single Player quickly via the character-selection wheel then start a new Solo Session to erase your Wanted level completely or you can hold up a store wearing a mask and remove it out of sight of the cops to instantly lose a star.

 

The stores you have successfully held up will have a green tick next to the map icon (store-robbed.png) and to check which stores out of the 20 you have left to hold up, access the map with :start: then scroll down to "Store" with :down: and through them with :left: or :right:. You can do this over multiple sessions as once a shop has been robbed, the progress will be saved permanently for the character you are playing with.

GTA Online: Participate in everything Los Santos has to offer.

 

[GLITCHED]

 

Despite what the trophy description says, you don't have to participate in every activity for this trophy as only the following is required:

 

  • Buy a private dance at the Strip Club (strip-club.png) - You don't need to actually have the dance, just buy one for $40 then walk out.
  • Buy clothes - Completed as part of the tutorial.
  • Get a haircut.
  • Get a tattoo (On the torso, to be certain).
  • Have an Arm Wrestle - Minimum 1 round.
  • Hold up a store (store.png).
  • Play Darts (darts.png) - Minimum 1 leg (the first to score 301).
  • Play Golf (golf.png) - Minimum 1 hole.
  • Play Tennis (tennis.png) - Minimum 1 set.
  • Play the Shooting Range (shooting-range.png) - Play one challenge.

 

Some people have experienced a problem where they have partaken in all of the above activities but the trophy did not pop. It seems to be the tattoo that is a little glitchy so go back and try getting a different tattoo on the torso area. Thanks to dcollins22 for this tip.

 

All of the above can be completed as early as Rank 6 when the Strip Club and sports activities become available and all activities except for Arm Wrestling, Darts and Tennis can be done in a Solo Session. For those you can invite a friend or a boosting partner to a private session to get them done quickly.

 

To check which activities you have done, pause the game with :start:, go across to the "Stats" tab then to "Unlocks" => "Progress". This will provide a list of all the activities in the game, but only the ones listed above specific to Los Santos matter. Find the activity corresponding with the checklist above and check next to it for a "No" or "Yes" indicating whether or not you have completed this activity. Beware that if you quit out of an activity before completing it (or your opponent does during the sports), then it will be marked as "Yes" but won't actually have counted. You can also check by looking at the icon on your map; if there is a green tick in the top-left corner of the icon, it has been participated in. Once all the above activities have been completed, the trophy will unlock.

715.jpg  Crew Cut (B)

GTA Online: Complete a Job as a member of a Crew.

 

Crews are GTA V's version of clans. For this trophy you need to finish any Job (such as a mission or a race) with one person who is in the same Crew as you are. It doesn't matter if you play in a team together or against each other, nor does it matter if you win the race/mission or get defeated, the trophy will unlock regardless. You can create your own Crew and invite a friend or accept a Crew invite. If you are hosting the match, choose "Crew Members" in the invite menu or select someone from your friends list who is part of the same Crew and invite them. Your entire Crew need only consist of 2 people for this trophy.

 

You can create or apply for a Crew of your choosing by linking your PSN ID to the Rockstar Social Club and you can recruit members for your Crew or search for one matching your needs on this site using the http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/grand-theft-auto-v/210339-crew-recruitment-thread-read-first-post.html.

 

d43.jpg  Full Refund (B)

GTA Online: Kill the thief that mugged you.

 

For this trophy, you will need to be in a lobby with someone who's Rank 50 or above. The easiest way to do this is to find one in your Crew or the Trophy Boosting Thread and set up a private session, rather than relying on chance in a public lobby. You do not need to be Rank 50 yourself to earn this trophy.

 

Once at Rank 50 your boosting partner will get the option to call Lamar, select the "Send Mugger" option and choose a player in the session to send the mugger after for a fee of $1,000, just like the process for bounties for Run Like The Wind (B). Your partner must select you, and you must have cash on your person (although the amount can be as little as possible).

 

When this is done an enemy NPC will shortly arrive and tackle you to the floor, taking some or all of your money in the process. Your character will be staggered and unable to stand up for a few seconds so follow the direction he runs off in with the in-game camera (:rs:) and as soon as you can stand up, chase after him. If you lose sight of him you can just follow the blip on your mini-map. Once you get close enough, kill him and take your money back at which point the trophy will pop.

GTA Online: Call for gang backup for the first time.

 

Once you reach Rank 20, you will get a call from Merryweather informing you that you can now utilise their help to call in air support via helicopters. To do so, go to the "Contacts" app on your phone and call Merryweather. Select "Backup Helicopter" (which costs $5,000) and they will send a Buzzard to support you. As soon as the Buzzard arrives the trophy will unlock, regardless of whether it actually kills anyone.

67f.jpg  American Dream (B)

GTA Online: Own an Apartment, Garage and an Insured Vehicle

 

For this trophy you must own all three components simultaneously. The "Insured Vehicle" component of this trophy is automatically covered, as you will get your first insured vehicle for free as part of the tutorial missions. If for any reason you lose this vehicle, you can call "Mors Mutual Insurance" from your phone to get it back or steal a cheap car (not a "Premium" one as they are untrackable) and take it to a Los Santos Customs shop. Select Loss/Theft Prevention then buy the "Tracker" and "Insurance".

 

To get an Apartment and Garage you need to be at least Rank 5 and have $80,000 cash in the bank. You will get money fairly quickly by holding up stores, winning competitive match types, finishing missions and races or by collecting vehicles for Simeon or selling them at Los Santos Customs. Once you have $80,000, open your web browser and either click the "Dynasty 8" advert or go to the "Money and Services" tab and select the Dynasty 8 website ([NOPARSE]www.dynasty8realestate.com[/NOPARSE]) and scroll down until you see the "0112 S Rockford Dr, Apt 13" property that costs $80,000. It comes with a garage so you won't need to invest money in a separate one. As soon as you purchase the property, the "Apartment" and "Garage" requirements will be fulfilled.

 

You must buy a property from the Internet via your phone, this is because the trophy won't unlock if you buy one from the "For Sale" signs in front of the various properties dotted around the map.

 

b6d.jpg  A New Perspective (B)(H)

You played GTA V in first person mode for 15 hours.

 

[PS4 ONLY]

 

On the PlayStation 4 version of Grand Theft Auto V, you cycle through camera modes by pressing :touchpad:.

 

Progress towards this trophy counts in either First Person on-foot or in-vehicle and is cumulative between Story Mode & GTA Online.

 

Tips

• Track your progress in the pause menu. Stats > General/Career > Time played in first person.

• By default, if you enable FPS you'll be forced to use it for both in-vehicle and on-foot. To enable seperate cameras in each mode, in the pause menu go into Settings > Display and enable Allow Independent Camera Modes.

 

If you despise First-Person view you can always just leave the game idle for 15 hours. Just be sure to turn OFF all of the PlayStation 4's auto-off features such as "System" and "Controller Auto-Off" in the system settings to ensure your sytem remains powered.

 

Thanks to Supremacy for writing and providing the guide for this specific trophy.

Ok I think that's just about it in terms of content. I'm just going to go back and sweep it now and fix a few of the BB Code errors and the Youtube embedding.

 

Feel free to post! All feedback and constructive criticism is most welcomed.

 

Thanks for reading :)!

Amazing guide guys! Good work.

 

Can always rely on you Kird for indepth, highly detailed trophy descriptions and road maps :)

 

Great video guides for the collectibles as well PowerPyx, love your work.

 

Thanks a lot for the kind words mate :D

 

:rofl: @ "Kird", not heard that for a while since someone at school made that typo and it became a bit of a running joke :p

 

Yay, it's on! =)

 

Feel free to comment, everyone.

 

Happy trophy hunting!

 

Here's to us, and the numerous (extremely) late nights, the ridiculous number of Skype file transfers, infinite BB Code woes, and everything else. :drunk:

 

A pleasure as always, Sir :bow:

 

Now if you'll all excuse me, I'm going to enjoy a good, long night's (day's?) sleep for the first time in a while. Probably filled with sweet dreams of BB Code. I'll do a full grammar sweep in the morning afternoon when I'm feeling fresher and can concentrate more.

Get some sleep Kriddles, you've got some nonsense chit chat and gushing and giggling to catch up on :p :hug:

Fantastic guide folks, really appreciate the time and effort put in to help out us fellow gamers.

 

One quick question.

 

In your multi discipline trophy description, you say "Street races become available by beating Hao's mission, but completing that mission itself requires you to get a gold medal in the street race, so you won't need to complete......"

 

If you win the race, but don't get gold, this will count towards the 100% completion trophy as Hao's mission, shift work falls under the strangers and freaks category and not the street races under hobbies and pastime category.

 

Therefore my question is that if you win Hao's shift work mission race, but don't achieve gold, can you can still obtain the multi discipline trophy if you obtain gold in another street race?
