Introduction:

 

Welcome to Need For Speed: Most Wanted (2012). This game is the latest release in the popular Need for Speed racing series and was developed by Criterion Games, the developers of Burnout Paradise and 2010’s Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. This game will see you battle it out with the top 10 racers on the 'Most Wanted' list in order to take their spot, and their cars.

 

Please note that this guide is based on my experiences with the Playstation 3 version of the game. While a lot of it could still be used for the Vita version as it has the same set of trophies, please remember that this guide refers to the Playstation 3 version and not the Vita version specifically.

 

Walkthrough:

 

Step 1: Play Through the Game and Have Fun!

 

Focus on earning speed points by completing races in a number of different cars and making your way up the Most Wanted list until you are number 1. It's also good to smash any billboards and discover as many jack spots as you can during freedrive, to save yourself time later. Don't worry about the security gates just yet, as it is best to go for these all at once.

 

In this step you're aiming for the following trophies:

 

- Moving On Up (B)

- Alpha Dog (B)

- Charming (B)

- Blackout (B)

- Lexus Ranger (B)

- Track Weapon (B)

- Arachnophobic (B)

- Main Avent (B)

- White Gold (B)

- Mighty Wind (B)

- Don’t Blink (S)

- Most Wanted Rides (G)

- Fix Me Up (B)

 

Step 2: Multiplayer

 

After you have become the most wanted driver in Fairhaven, go online and play with some buddies to earn the multiplayer trophies.

 

Warning: Some people have mentioned their game crashing when playing online or even just being signed into PSN and this could possibly reset all SP progress to zero, be careful and back up your save files. (Thanks to HellCU3ED for letting me know).

 

In this step you're aiming for the following trophies:

 

- Social Climber (B)

- How Do You Like Me Now? (B)

- Nothing Personal (B)

- After Market (B)

- Licensed to ill (S)

- Mix Master (B)

- The Modfather (S)

- In Your Face (B)

 

Step 3: Collectibles

 

This step includes smashing all remaining billboards, finding all remaining jack spots, smashing every security gate, and speeding past every speed camera. (You'll likely have most of the speed cameras done by this point).

 

In this step you're aiming for the following trophies:

 

- Got to Smash Them All (B)

- The Gatecrasher (B)

- Networking (B)

- Cameraman (B)

- Love Them and Leave Them (B)

 

Step 4: Win Every Event

 

After successfully shutting down and winning every most wanted car and finding all jack spots, you will have access to every event available in the game. There are 61 events in total. Focus on winning all events that you haven't previously played, along with any that you did not place in 1st. (See "Second is Nothing" for more details).

 

Completing this stage will unlock the following trophy:

 

- Second is Nothing (G)

 

Step 5: Clean Up

 

Any trophies left over after completing the first four steps should be earned now. It's very likely that the majority of these will have been unlocked before reaching this stage:

 

- Go Pro or Go Home (B)

- Feeling the Need (B)

- Switcheroo (B)

- Kitchen Sink (B)

- The Heat is Off (S)

- Rim Shot (S)

- Pit Stop (B)

- Gotcha (B)

- First Strike (B)

- Troublemaker (S)

- Slip the Cuffs (B)

- Battering Ram (B)

- Sidewinder (B)

- Mauled (S)

- Beast from the East (S)

- Iron Boots (B)

- Gladiator (S)

- Escape Velocity (B)

- Fast Forward (B)

Trophy Guide

 

9A0.jpg  None More Wanted (P)

Awarded for successfully collecting all Most Wanted trophies

 

Congratulations! You have become the most wanted driver in Fairhaven and have earned yourself the platinum trophy.

 

AF0.jpg  Most Wanted Rides (G)

Own all the Most Wanted cars (Single Player)

 

The Most Wanted cars are the 10 cars that are on the Most Wanted List, beating everyone on the Most Wanted list and shutting down their cars will earn you this trophy.

 

See “Don’t Blink” for more details.

 

658.jpg  Got to Smash Them All (B)

Smash every Billboard

 

Billboards are scattered throughout the city with one of the EA game developers name on them (such as DICE or Visceral), they are usually in the air so they require a jump to reach them, look around the area of the billboard for a ramp of some sort. To check which billboards you've already smashed, press :select: to bring up the map and then :l2: or :r2: to toggle through until you reach the billboards.

 

There are 156 billboards in total:

Break through every Security Gate

 

It is possible that this trophy is glitched as there have been quite a few problems with it. For a detailed run down of the glitch, check here. (Credit to xMescax)

 

Security gates are placed all over the city, usually blocking an alleyway or similar types of back streets within the city. To break them, simply drive through them. There are a total of 135 security gates and their locations can be seen in the map below.

 

You cannot check which security gates you've already smashed. Ensure you follow the map carefully in order to avoid wasting time and having to go back through and check every spot again.

There is a really good interactive map that can be a great help towards these gates, including images of each security gate.

 

0B9.jpg  Love Them and Leave Them (B)

Drive every Car

 

There is a total of 41 cars in the game, most of them are found at the Jack Spots that are placed around the city (see “Networking” for more details), the others are earned by shutting down the cars on the Most Wanted list. Once you've unlocked every car, select one from the Easydrive menu. Take it for a little spin and perform an action such as smashing a billboard, or driving through a body shop, you're required to do this for the game to register the car as used. Progress through the full list of cars to earn this trophy.

Find every Jack Spot

 

There are 123 Jack Spots placed throughout the city. Although there are only 41 cars, each has 3 separate Jack Spots from which you can change your car. This includes the 10 Most Wanted cars although you can’t find these ones without first owning the cars. Also, the Jack Spots that relate to the current car you are driving will not show on the in game map.

 

To check which Jack spots you have already found, press :select: to bring up the map and then :l2: or :r2: to toggle through until you reach the Jack spots.

 

All Jack Spot locations can be seen below:

To check which Speed cameras you have already been caught on, press :select: to bring up the map and then :l2: or :r2: to toggle through until you reach the Speed cameras.

7BF.jpg  Feeling the Need (B)

Empty a full nitrous bar without hitting anything

 

Nitrous is earned for each car by winning the first race on that cars race list, this is the race that is categorised as "Easy". The best way to get this trophy is to gain a full tank of nitrous (the quickest way is to drive through a bodyshop to automatically fill it), then get on the freeway and drive in the correct lane. Try to choose a straight part of the freeway for easier control and avoid any cars along the way. This is a very easy trophy which should unlock naturally early in the game.

 

5EB.jpg  Fix Me Up (B)

Use a Bodyshop to paint or repair your car for the first time

 

Bodyshops are indicated on the mini-map as green spanners, simply drive through a Bodyshop to paint or repair your car and you will get this trophy.

 

8E6.jpg  Switcheroo (B)

Use a Jack Spot in a Pursuit (Single Player)

 

To trigger a pursuit, just drive past a cop car while speeding. While being chased by the cops, drive to a Jack Spot and press :triangle: to change cars and you will earn this trophy.

 

4B4.jpg  Kitchen Sink (B)

Use a Billboard and a Jack Spot to successfully evade a pursuit (Single Player)

 

Similar to the “Switcheroo” trophy, use a Jack Spot during a pursuit to change your car, then smash through any billboard you come across. You must then escape the cops and get rid of your heat level, after doing so you will earn the trophy.

 

5DC.jpg  The Heat is Off (S)

Escape successfully from all Heat levels

 

There are 6 heat levels in a pursuit, with this trophy requiring you to escape from each heat level individually. The heat levels can be done anytime you wish and in any order.

 

There is an easy way to earn this trophy. First, go to the area where the train tracks are located (see map below) and start a pursuit. Use the ramp underneath the tracks to jump onto them, police can’t follow you up here so you can’t get busted, but ensure you stay in the pursuit radius so you don’t go into cooldown mode. There is a ledge at one end of the train tracks where you can stay without getting busted, whilst your heat level slowly rises. Once you have acquired the heat level you want, simply turn around and drive out of the pursuit radius, then stop and let your heat level decrease until you've evaded the pursuit completely. Repeat the process on the different heat levels until you've earned the trophy.

 

Turning off the engine of the car by pressing :l3: can help the meter decrease faster when you are stationary. (Thanks to g-unither for the tip)

DFE.jpg  Social Climber (B)

Get 5 or more NFS friends

 

Need For Speed friends are the people on your friend list that have played this game. If none of your friends have the game, try using the boosting thread.

 

9AD.jpg  How Do You Like Me Now? (B)

Beat a friend’s Autolog Recommendation

 

An autolog recommendation is a challenge to beat something that one of your friends has done, such as a race. Autolog recommendations can be found in the Easydrive menu by pressing :right: and going onto the Autolog menu, simply choose one and beat it. If none of your friends have the game, try using the boosting thread.

 

5A9.jpg  Moving On Up (B)

Move up the Most Wanted List for the first time

 

During the introduction to the game you will be told about Speed Points. Speed points are earned by winning races, beating autolog recommendations, smashing billboards, finding Jack Spots, breaking security gates, and just about everything else within the game. Speed Points are required in order to move up the Most Wanted list, as soon as you earn enough SP to move up for the first time, the trophy is yours.

 

ECB.jpg  Nothing Personal (B)

Takedown a friend in Multiplayer

 

When playing multiplayer, you will be able to drive around the city freely with other players. To earn this trophy simply takedown one of your NFS friends by smashing into them or making them crash. If none of your friends have the game, try using the boosting thread.

 

37B.jpg  After Market (B)

Unlock a mod for a car in Multiplayer

 

Mods in multiplayer are unlocked in a similar way to single player but have slightly different requirements.

 

See "The Modfather" for more details.

7A1.jpg  Licensed to ill (S)

Customize your license plate and number in Multiplayer

 

To change your license plate you must be in an online game, but you can do this by yourself and no one is required to be in the game with you. Go into the Easydrive menu and select ‘Multiplayer’, then 'Create Friends Game', which will put you in an online free drive. After this, go back into the Easydrive menu and select ‘Edit License Plate’, you then have to change the text on the license plate and select a different type of plate to use. When you've changed both, you will have the trophy.

 

C28.jpg  Mix Master (B)

Play a Custom Speedlist you have created (Multiplayer)

 

When you are in multiplayer, you can create a custom speedlist that consists of 5 events. To do this you have to go on the Easydrive menu and select ‘Speedlists’, then ‘Custom Speedlists’, then add 5 events and complete them. You will earn the trophy when the 5 events have been completed.

 

You must be playing with other people in order to create custom speedlists.

 

A fast way to do this is to find the event called "Great Scott!", This requires you to rack up a total of 4000 yards when driving faster than 88 MPH. If you put this event on the custom speedlist for all 5 events and complete it near the meet up point, you can earn this trophy quite quickly. (Thanks to Loesjoel for the tip):

B7F.jpg  The Modfather (S)

Unlock 3 Pro Mods in Multiplayer

 

Unlocking Pro Mods in multiplayer takes a lot longer than in single player. The requirements to unlock them are different and require you to do a lot more than win a race. You must first unlock the regular mod and equip it. I recommend choosing a car you like, and stick to using it at all times during multiplayer, this will make it quicker to unlock Pro Mods and earn this trophy.

 

You are required to be in Speedlist to unlock Pro Mods. I recommend joining a game with a friend and activating a Speedlist, you can then work on them in freedrive as long as it is active. (A Speedlist is a set of events that can be custom made by yourself or a friend when you are together in an online freedrive, you can also choose pre-created Speedlists from Criterion in the Speedlist menu).

 

Here is a list of all regular mods and how to acquire them:

 

  • Tires:
    Off-Road - Jump 1500 yards with Reinforced Chassis equipped
    Track - Drive 25 miles
    Reinflates - Drive 50 miles
  • Nitrous:
    Burn - Free
    Powershot - Drive 100 miles
  • Chassis:
    Lightweight - Get 60 Near Misses with Short Gears equipped
    Reinforced - Drive 200 miles
  • Body:
    Aero - Drive 5 miles
    Impact Protection - Get 10 takedowns with Powershot equipped
  • Transmission:
    Long Gears - Drift 5000 yards with Track Tires equipped
    Short Gears - Drive 10 miles

After unlocking the regular mods, equip them to start making progress towards the Pro Mods. Here is a list of the Pro Mods and how to acquire them:

 

  • Tires:
    Off-Road Pro - Drive 60 miles Off-Road with Off-Road tires during Speedlists
    Track Pro - Drive 80 miles above 100MPH with Track Tires during Speedlists
    Reinflates Pro - Reinflate 32 tires during Speedlists
  • Nitrous:
    Burn Pro - Get Perfect Nitrous 40 times with Burn Nitrous during Speedlists
    Powershot Pro - Get 50 Nitrous-powered Takedowns with Powershot equipped during Speedlists
  • Chassis:
    Lightweight Pro - Jump 15,000 yards with Lightweight Chassis during Speedlists
    Reinforced Pro - Get 50 Takedowns with the Reinforced Chassis during Speedlists
  • Body:
    Aero Pro - Slipstream 20 miles with Aero Body during Speedlists
    Impact Protection Pro - Get 20 Slam Takedowns with Impact Protection during Speedlists
  • Transmission:
    Long Gears - Go through 40 Speed Cameras above 100MPH with Long Gears equipped during Speedlists
    Short Gears - Record a 100 yard Drift 160 times with Short Gears equipped during Speedlists

The 3 Pro Mods that could be deemed quickest to achieve are:

 

  • Burn Pro, by finding a Bodyshop on the freeway and continuing to refill your nitrous
  • Reinflates Pro, keep hold of :l2: and :r2: until your tires burst and repeat
  • Long Gears Pro, by using this area of the map (credit to ShineDalgarno😞

FD6.jpg  Second is Nothing (G)

Finish first in every race, in every car (Single Player)

 

Despite what the trophy description suggests, you only have to win each unique event once to obtain this trophy, not every event in every car. There are a total of 61 different events in the game and 10 of these are the events on the most wanted list. You can tell if you've already done an event by going to the 'races' list in the Easydrive menu. Select an event, and if you don't have the option to start the event from the menu with the only option being 'set destination', this means you haven't done the event, you can also check the map on the recommendations. (Thanks to bs000 for the clarification regarding this trophy).

 

There is a very useful chart containing events and vehicles created by rachet, you can find it here.

 

B9B.jpg  Rim Shot (S)

Escape the cops with at least one blown tire

 

The quickest way to earn this would be to burst your own tire and then start a pursuit. To do this you must stay on the spot and hold down :l2: + :r2: for a few seconds. After you've a burst tire, start a pursuit then escape.

 

FDC.jpg  In Your Face (B)

Smash a friend’s face on a billboard and beat their jump distance

 

When you have a friend on NFS, you will be able to see their PSN avatar on a billboard, this means they have the furthest jump distance after smashing the billboard. To earn this trophy you must smash through one of the billboards that has your friend’s avatar on it and beat their jump distance. If none of your friends have the game, try using the boosting thread.

 

Note - This must be done in the same car that was used to by your friend when they set the record. (Thanks to g-unither for the tip)

 

828.jpg  Pit Stop (B)

Repair a burst tire at a Bodyshop

 

This trophy can be earned straight after getting the “Rim Shot” trophy. After escaping the cops with a burst tire, drive through a Bodyshop to automatically repair your car and get a fresh set of tires, along with a shiny new trophy.

 

9FF.jpg  Alpha Dog (B)

935.jpg  Don’t Blink (S)

Shut down Most Wanted car number 1: Koenigsegg Agera R (Single Player)

 

To earn this trophy (and all the similar trophies that come before it), you must earn enough Speed Points to race the Most Wanted car. You must go head to head with it and win. After winning races against cars on the Most Wanted list, you don't win the car straight away, you must shut them down afterwards by chasing them and performing a take down, making them crash and earning yourself the new car.

 

It's possible for the Most Wanted cars to escape from you when you're trying to shut them down but don’t worry, they randomly speed past you again when you're driving around the city, showing up as a black arrow on the mini-map. This happens quite frequently so there are plenty of chances to shut them down.

 

You will require a total of 1,000,000 SP to unlock this event.

06E.jpg  Gotcha (B)

Get Busted for the first time

 

To earn this trophy simply trigger a pursuit by speeding past a cop car or crashing into them, then stop driving and stay still. As the cops surround you, a meter will fill up in the bottom of the screen and when it's full, you'll have failed your escape and be busted by the cops.

 

959.jpg  First Strike (B)

Takedown your first Cop

 

See “Troublemaker” for more details.

 

61E.jpg  Troublemaker (S)

Takedown 50 Cops

 

When you are in a pursuit, you can take down cops by smashing into their cars and causing a little “accident”, which will result in a destroyed cop car. Do this 50 times and you will earn this trophy.

 

AE7.jpg  Slip the Cuffs (B)

Drive through a roadblock without hitting it

 

Some roadblocks will have a gap in them between 2 cop cars, all that will be there is a plastic road fence. Simply drive through this gap without touching a cop car and you will earn this trophy.

 

12F.jpg  Battering Ram (B)

Smash through a roadblock without crashing

 

Similar to “Slip the Cuffs”, this trophy requires you to smash through a roadblock without crashing. What’s different with this trophy is that you have smash through 2 cop cars instead of avoiding them altogether. This is done by smashing through the part where 2 cars link together as opposed to smashing straight into the side of one car and coming to a complete stop. Smash through the car link and keep on driving to earn this trophy.

 

F8C.jpg  Sidewinder (B)

Do a 250 yard (228.6 meter) drift

 

It's likely that you will earn this trophy naturally as you play, however if you're struggling here is a good method:

 

Near the top of the map there is spiral type part of the road on the freeway, this a good spot that I recommend using to earn this trophy, although you could be interrupted by oncoming traffic so it might take a few attempts. You could also find an open space and start to drift in a circle.

7B0.jpg  Mauled (S)

Wreck 10 cops in a single pursuit in the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor

 

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a beast. It can take down cops really easily and makes this trophy very easy to obtain. Simply get in the car, start a pursuit, then start destroying every cop car you can see. This is where you can find the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor:

 

ubOOydi.jpg

 

E73.jpg  Beast from the East (S)

Escape from the cops in the Marussia B2

 

Trigger a pursuit while driving the Marussia B2 and then evade the pursuit by losing your heat level. This is where you can find the Marussia B2:

 

3Utbcg0.jpg

 

5AD.jpg  Iron Boots (B)

Drive over 5 spike strips with re-inflates equipped

 

Re-inflates are a type of tire that you can unlock by finishing at least 3rd in all 5 races for a particular car. They are a special kind of tire that allows your car to drive over spike strips and not have burst tires afterwards. Simply equip these tires on your car, engage a pursuit and get to heat level 3, then drive over spike strips until you earn this trophy. Spike strips flash yellow on the road.

 

178.jpg  Gladiator (S)

Takedown every racer at least once in a single race

 

You don’t want to aim for this in an event that has lots of opponents, as it makes the trophy harder to achieve. The best way to earn this, is by playing the event called ‘Stopping Power’, as this race only has 3 opponents therefore making it much easier.

 

This event is accessible by these cars:

 

- Bugatti Veyron Super Sport

- Lamborghini Aventador

- Pagani Huayra

- McLaren MP4-12C

 

(Credits to bs000)

 

4EE.jpg  Escape Velocity (B)

Jump over 200 yards (182.88 meters) through a Billboard

 

The best way to get this trophy is to use a fast, light car with nitrous. Next, head to the location that is shown on the map below. This location has 2 strange rings that you're able to drive on, there are also 2 billboards here and if you get enough speed and drive up the side of the ring, you can smash the billboard, soar through the air, and earn the trophy.

 

1W5RWQ8.jpg

 

EB1.jpg  Fast Forward (B)

Trigger a speed camera at over 200mph (321.97km/h)

 

The best way to earn this trophy is to find an area of the freeway that has a speed camera. You should use a car that can reach the speed required for this trophy, a car that is earned from the most wanted list would be a good choice (The 'Bugatti Veyron Super Sport' for example). Unlock the mods for it by completing the races and equip the ones that improve it's speed. Use your nitrous and do the best that you can to speed by the camera at 200mph. A good location can be seen below:

This my first trophy guide so I apologise for anything i've done wrong, any tips or advice on how to improve would be much appreciated :p

 

I would also like to thank neosnake101 for his encouragement towards me actually making a guide, I never thought that I actually would :)

 

Thanks to bs000 for letting me use his videos in the guide, they are a great help

Solid looking guide so far. Could use some videos/pictures and such. I'd contact the guide creator on x360a.org and see if you can use some of the stuff in his guide, or ask other people who posted maps, locations, etc if you can use their stuff.

 

Thanks a lot :) yeah i'm about to put some visual references now, i've just finished putting in all of the text so I was leaving that until last.

this is your first guide? geez man this looks top notch! like posted above, ask the creators of the guide of the sister site (x360a.org) if you can use some video guides for trophies. i did find a mistake though, or maybe you just havent gotten to it yet. on the Escape Velocity trophy, you mention a map that is below. however there is no map posted. same thing with Beast from the East and Mauled trophy. there is no map. double check your guide to see if theres any others. i just briefly glanced and thats what i found. great guide though

Thanks for that :D yeah I plan to put them in soon, I thought i'd leave images until last because it seemed easier but now i'm having to move information about to fit them in and everything because I didn't really think of that at the time... so yeah, you can see that I have no experience with it haha :p

 

EDIT: I managed to put them in as attachments, I hope this is ok :confused:

Hi :whistle:

 

Feel free to use any of my videos:

 

You should fix the description for "Second is Nothing". You only need to place first in each unique event one time. There are 51 events, plus 10 Most Wanted races. You don't even need to use every car.

Ah right, ok thanks for clearing that up. I'll change it tomorrow and add some of your videos to the guide, thanks a lot :D

For 'Escape Velocity,' i used the train tracks that are great for cooldowns. If that was posted on the map already, i'm sorry. The pic wouldn't load on my fone.

'In your face' may be glitched. I beat a friends jump, saw my avatar. That means i beat him, right? It didn't pop.

Great guide. Hopefully one day i'll do one!

I love this site.

That happened to me the first time I tried it and it confused me, then I realised that I didn't actually smash through the section of the billboard that had the avatar on it, when I found another billboard and smashed through the avatar, the trophy popped, try that. If it doesn't pop after that then it may be glitched... but just keep trying it.

 

Please tell me how it goes :)

The Modfather

Unlock 3 Pro Mods in Multiplayer

 

 

Unlocking Pro Mods in multiplayer takes a lot longer than in single player because the requirements to unlocking them are different and require you to do a lot more than win a race. You must first unlock the regular mod and equip it. I recommend choosing a car you like and stick to using it at all times during multiplayer, this will make it quicker to unlock Pro mods and earning this trophy. Here is a list of all regular mods and how to acquire them:

 

Tires:

Off-Road - Jump 1500 yards with Reinforced Chassis equipped

Track - Drive 25 miles

Reinflates - Drive 50 miles

 

Nitrous:

Burn - Free

Powershot - Drive 100 miles

 

Chassis:

Lightweight - Get 60 Near Misses with Short Gears equipped

Reinforced - Drive 200 miles

 

Body:

Aero - Drive 5 miles

Impact Protection - Get 10 takedowns with Powershot equipped

 

Transmission:

Long Gears - Drift 5000 yards with Track Tires equipped

Short Gears - Drive 10 miles

 

can you grind these during the speedlist and/or after? or both, i am finding it a bit hard to know what my progress is for each car also when you can grind for each requirement? it's crucial because they take so long to upgrade, i only have one more mod left to do before i get the trophy.

You can grind any of them at anytime while a speedlist is active, the easiest one to grind out its the reinflate tyres. Just drive 50 miles and equip the tyres then do a burnout by pressing L2 & R2 until both rear tyres burst, wait a few seconds then rinse and repeat another 15 times to unlock the pro mod version.

 

Bursting the tyres and following this guide while getting The heat is off trophy may also be an easier way of getting the Rim shot trophy.

What the first guy said :p

 

Regular mods can be earned any time, both in speedlists and on freedrive. It is only the Pro mods that require a speedlist to earn whilst the regular mods are equipped.

Since you're asking for advice ;) Upload the attachements you've used to an image hosting website, such as Flickr, Photobucket, Imageshack, tinypic and directly link them as you did with the billboards for example. Makes it much easier and faster to view.

 

(And I'm not sure about this, but once a guide gets accepted and uploaded to the main page, it might not support the attachements. Not sure though, should ask a staff member from the Guide Team.)
