lewis1992 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Just to let everyone know, I can now confirm that moving the clock forward does indeed work for this trophy. I did it for the last few days since I knew I would not have internet access for days 28, 29 and 30 so I decided it was worth a go! Go for 2 wins per day, maybe at different rooms to be safe? And make sure the original host is there!! Bad point: winning 2 games, changing clock and re-starting the game takes about half an hour. For 30 days, this would be 900 minutes, which is 15 hours if my Maths is right. So it's still a long slog if you want to cheat, but hopefully this will help someone in need!

Bluezombieclock Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 That's really awesome! You're sure you didn't meet 30 days normally yet? For me, it was one of the 3 online trophies that didn't glitch on me at all (which was surprising) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinobi X Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Thanks mate. I'm going to tell a few friend about this. I already got this, but hey. I might as well spread the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeyCow Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Thats good tk hear. I will never in my entire life be able to play for 30 days straight. Well once a year but im going on holiday so i could do it 15 days and be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewis1992 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 You're all very welcome And I'm 100% sure that it wasn't Day 30 already because I checked my calender from when I bought TM (I was on Day 27 as the game released later in Europe), and did the last few days by changing the clock. No glitch or nastiness! The main reason I'm sharing this is because the developers have no righ to put a trophy like this into a game because not everyone can access the internet for a month straight. Furthermore, it's difficult to get into a game anyway which makes this trophy nearly impossible! This should have been silver or gold, not bronze! Anyway, if anyone has any questions I'll try to reply within a day or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wottagunn Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I was on day 26 and my phone line was damaged, causing my internet to drop out. I've been without internet for almost a month now. Just yesterday though, someone came and repaired it. I am going to change the clock on my Ps3 and get my remaining 4 wins. I will post my results here.

Crazy1 81 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Could it be possible to reverse this method and get a day you missed in? If this works in reverse it could be a lifesaver to a lot of folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTroll Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 That probably depends on if you played the game at all on the day you missed a win, or any day after that. If you did, the game would probably record the string of wins as being broken and update the save file (where trophy info is stored) accordingly. i.e. (X = win, NX = no win): X, X, X, NX If you just left the game alone after the most recent win (didn't turn it on at all, in other words), you might be able to turn back the ps3's clock to the next day you should have won, and trick the game into starting from there (assuming the TC here is telling the truth and didn't just make miscalculate the number of consecutive days he had won a game, or it didn't just glitch and give it to him when he shouldn't have received it).

rongey420 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Moving the clock forward does work!! I was at day 29 (already had my win for that day) and decided what the hell, ill move it forward one day and see what happens. Right after my next win ASAF popped!! I was pretty happy cause I wasnt sure if my stat keeping was accurate or not. Sometimes the wins dont register so you are better off winning at least a couple a day to gaurantee your wins are registering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgaiden Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Why does the original host need to be there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTroll Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 There is a glitch in the game where stats are not recorded if the original host of a room isn't present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgaiden Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 There is a glitch in the game where stats are not recorded if the original host of a room isn't present. But as long as you refresh your stats and see another win, that means it counted right? Or does it record the win but not count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzpey Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 But as long as you refresh your stats and see another win, that means it counted right? Or does it record the win but not count? It records the win but dont count does any body know if you do this does the date change on your stats or just stays the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosD Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 How can you check if the original host is still there? Most of the time hosts rename their games so that it doesn't reflect the host name anymore. Is it visible somewhere else as well? And do you only need the original host to be present when starting the game or does he has to stay from beginning till end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killforce Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yes, changing the clock worked for me too. I was at about 7-10 days the normal way when I found this thread, and then played the hell out of team deathmatch until 30 "days". Trophy earned (It seems I had to update the stats twice to make sure my "games won" went up by 1.) Now I can just play at my own pace without having to win every day.

Wedge19 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Can anyone confirm if this works in reverse for a missed day? I missed yesterday, have not played yet today. Can I set the date back and win yesterdays game, and then today too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonesoda Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 oh wow it really works? I thought of it being a long shot, never had time to try it though (havent played twisted metal in a long while now to) I may have to actually try it soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I set the date back and win yesterdays game, and then today too? I can confirm that this DOES NOT WORK. If you miss a day, you'll have to start again. So you can change the clock forward, but not back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewis1992 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hey MrTroll I do not appreciate the implication that I lied about this method working when I only posted here to help others. Oh, and as someone who is studying a Maths degree, I'm sure I can determine whether or not I have passed 30 days properly, especially since my holidays were only 28 days long (hence 28 days of internet access). You all raise a good question about whether it works in reverse! I wish I could help but since I already have the trophy that is no longer possible. Have fun!

abbotthayes Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 bitching aside, i'm glad you guys are finally getting the trophy. ASAF is definitley the worst trophy in this game and its rad to hear you can glitch it, after these last couple months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlwithturn Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Right. I made it for 5 days about a week ago. I just winning 1 ranked match => exit to XMD => adding 1 day into system date time => launch game again. It took about 6 repeatings every day. Don't forget to turn off automatically time's update.

Fair enough, and I appreciate that I have not made many posts on this website and hence could be initially seen as an unreliable source. However, I only created an account here to post in the Twisted Metal forums! At least we can all rest assured that others have now tried this and confirmed it, though it's a shame it doesn't work for missed days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0nk3y_aust Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 i'm going to have to go with this method to get ASAF - that is when the new patch allows us PAL users to go online...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
