Pesico Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) The servers have closed and the Platinum is unobtainable. Overview: - Estimated trophy difficulty: 5/10 - Offline: 46 - Online: 2 - Unobtainable due to server closure. - Approximate time to : 20-25 hours. - Minimum playthroughs: 2 - Missable trophies: 0 - Glitched trophies: 0 - Do cheats disable trophies?: No - Does difficulty affect trophies?: No, except for the Charted! trophies - Trophy breakdown: 36 / 8 / 3 / 1 Introduction: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is an action/adventure 3rd person game. The puzzles are usually easy and it also has a lot of gunfights. The big difference from the first game in the series is the added online multiplayer. The online does not require any grinding as you only need to complete a round of competitive and cooperative multiplayer. The single-player will have you go through at least two playthroughs, one on hard and one on crushing difficulty, and most likely some chapter select to clean up the rest of the trophies. Look below for a step by step roadmap to platinum Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Walkthrough: Step 1: Hard playthrough while focusing on weapon and combat trophies Just play through the game on hard and enjoy it. If you're not to worried about a fresh playthrough, you could also use the treasure videos (see "Master Fortune Hunter") as you go along. If not, wait for step four to get the treasures. What you should think about while playing is the Combat trophies and Weapon trophies. Always try to use a gun that you have yet to get a trophy for. Most likely, you can forget about getting the "200 Kills: GAU - 19" during your two playthroughs, so I suggest you leave that one for "Step Five". Also try to kill 75 enemies in a row without dying for the "Survivor" trophy on this playthrough. For general tips on how to play this game, refer to the "Charted! - Crushing" trophy in the guide. Step 2: Cleaning up combat trophies using chapter select Now it's time to take a look at the combat trophies you didn't get in step one. Look at the trophy guide and you'll find the easiest and fastest way to get them using chapter select. Feel free to play on very easy. Step 3: Online - Unobtainable due to server closure There are only two online trophies in this game and they are both fast to get. Play one round of competitive multiplayer and one round of Co-op multiplayer and you have all the online trophies. Step 4: Crushing playthrough while focusing on weapon trophies Now it's time to tackle Crushing and the treasures if you didn't get them in Step 1. Also focus on any weapon related trophies you don't have yet. No reason to worry about it if you lack several of them as you can use chapter select to get the ones you don't get during this playthrough. For tips on how to cope with the crushing difficulty, refer to the "Charted! - Crushing" trophy in the guide. Step 5: Weapon trophies using chapter select When finishing crushing, you might still need one or more weapon trophies. 200 Kills with the GAU is easy to miss. Just buy any missing guns from the store along with infinite ammo and one shot kills. Then use chapter select to get the last weapon trophies. I recommend replaying the start of chapter 6 as it starts off with a big firefight. Edited September 13, 2022 by Viper Added server closure notices.

Pesico Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Combat Trophies Survivor Defeat 75 enemies in a row without dying This trophy is a lot easier than it might sound like. I got this playing on Normal difficulty. To stay alive, it's important that you use cover a lot by pressing the circle button. Also, be careful on any platforming sequences. Sometimes it's easy to die if you move too fast without thinking. I suggest you try to get this during your Hard playthrough. If you have any trouble with this, you may play on Very Easy. A good chapter to start on if you're doing it between playthroughs is Chapter 3 - Borneo. You will then probably get this during Chapter 5 (thanks for confirming FiftyQuid). 20 Headshots Defeat 20 enemies with headshots See "250 Headshots" 100 Headshots Defeat 100 enemies with headshots See "250 Headshots" 250 Headshots Defeat 250 enemies with headshots This is a cumulative trophy, and you can work towards it over several playthroughs as long as you choose "Yes" when asked to keep bonus Treasures and Medals upon starting a new game. You will probably get this trophy during your second playthrough. On a general note, you should always try to go for headshots, as it will save ammo. To make it easier to hit enemies in the head, aim by pushing the button and then push the button to zoom in. To see how many headshot kills in the game, check the Stats menu where it says "Total headshots". Headshot Expert Defeat five enemies in a row with headshots This should be a very easy trophy if you read my tips on the 250 Headshots trophy. If you have any trouble, wait for the sections where you get the Dragon Sniper rifle and aim for the heads. If you did not get this trophy during any of your playthroughs, chapter 22 has a sniper section where you can get this easily. Run-and-Gunner Defeat 20 enemies by shooting from the hip (without aiming with L1) This trophy should be very easy to get. Just remember that you have to kill 20 enemies by shooting without aiming. Just run up close to enemies and push the button to shoot, without using the button. Chapter 6 on very easy is the best chapter to get this one if you missed it during any of your playthroughs as it starts off with more than enough people to kill for this trophy. Hangman Defeat 20 enemies with gunfire by aiming while hanging Nathan Drake can shoot even when he's climbing and hanging from ledges. I'm not sure if it counts if you're climbing a wall, but there are plenty of places in the game where you can shoot enemies while hanging from a ledge or a pole or similar. You'll get this after killing 20 enemies while hanging. "For both grenade hangman and hangman the ideal spot would be in chapter 19 (second checkpoint) on very easy. While hanging on an edge either shoot by aiming and firing or throw grenades by pressing . Kill the required amount of enemies for both of these trophies and they are yours." Thanks to Trophy_collecta for the tip. Grenade Hangman Defeat ten enemies with grenades by aiming while hanging This trophy is just like "Hangman", only that you need to toss grenades in stead of shooting enemies while hanging. If you're not sure about this, read my tips on the "Hangman" trophy. Triple Dyno-Might Defeat three enemies with one explosion In order to get this trophy, you have to "create" an explosion that kills three people at once. There are three ways to create an explosion. You can toss a grenade (hold button to aim and push to throw). The second option is to pick up a Propane Tank by pushing the triangle button, then throw it with the the button and finally shoot the tank by pushing the button when it's near three enemies. You don't even need to aim. The last option is towards the end of Chapter 21 - Convoy. Here you will find yourself on a truck where you can shoot explosive bullets. Just hit as many cars and trucks as possible and this trophy should unlock. I had already unlocked this trophy before I got to this chapter, but I got the in game Quad Dyno-Might! medal here for killing four enemies with one explosion. That will automaticly unlock the Triple Dyno-Might! trophy as well. Thanks to manga13 for confirming that this trophy stacks. Bare-knuckle Brawler Defeat 20 enemies with hand-to-hand combat See the "Bare-knuckle Slugger" trophy. Bare-knuckle Slugger Defeat 50 enemies with hand-to-hand combat As the trophy says, you have to kill 50 enemies with hand-to-hand combat. You hit enemies with your fists by pressing the square button. If they try to hit you, quickly press the button and then hit them again. Sometimes you will get one hit kills. They should also count towards this trophy. You should as often as possible try to take out as many enemies with hand-to-hand combat before they spot you. This will help you save ammo and make each area easier. With this philosophy, you should get this easily during your first playthrough or at least during your second. Bare-knuckle Expert Defeat ten enemies in a row with hand-to-hand combat To punch someone, press the button when close to an enemy. To get this trophy, you have to kill 10 enemies in a row by only using hand-to-hand combat. This isn't that hard, however, the easiest way to get this is in chapter 4 after the grenade tutorial. This means you have to kill the first set of enemies any way you want, then trigger a cutscene. Play on very easy if you struggle with it. Below is a video showing exactly what to do. Master Ninja Defeat 50 enemies with stealth attacks To kill an enemy with a stealth attack, you have to kill them with one punch by pushing the button without them seeing you. Chapter 2 is a great place to do this, as you're forced to do stealth kills. When you get to the big room with a lot of enemies, just kill most of the enemies in that room and then die on purpose or select Restart checkpoint from the pause menu. Steel Fist Master Defeat 20 enemies with a single punch, after softening them up with gunfire To get a Steel Fist kill you have to first injure an enemy with enough gunfire (without aiming with ), and then hit them once by pressing the square button. You have to do this 20 times in order to get this trophy. See "Steel Fist Expert" for more tips. Remember: Do NOT aim. Steel Fist Expert Defeat ten enemies in a row with a single punch, after softening them up with gunfire To get a Steel Fist kill you have to first injure an enemy with enough gunfire (without aiming with ), and then hit them once by pressing the square button. To get this trophy you need to do that ten times in a row. This means if you kill someone with just gunfire, you have to start over. A great place to do this is in Chapter 4 on Very Easy difficulty. You first have to kill the first set of enemies and then trigger a cutscene. Right after the cutscene, you will be shown how to use grenades in the game, and during this tutorial, you will kill an enemy with the grenade. Right after you do that, you can go for this trophy. Like the video will show you, one shot with the .45 Defender (without aiming with ) followed by a punch () on very easy is enough. The advantage with doing this on very easy is that you can take a lot of gunfire without dying. Be selective with your enemies and be sure to avoid enemies that are close together. Just ignore them and keep moving around until you find an enemy by himself. Then just shoot without aiming and punch him with the square button. Then continue to move around and do this with 9 more enemies. If you do a mistake and kill an enemy in another way, just hit start and choose Restart Checkpoint. If you can't avoid people close together, pay attention to which person you shoot. You will see small drops of blood popping out of the enemy you shoot. Look at the video below for a demonstration.

Pesico Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Weapon Trophies 50 Kills: 92FS - 9mm Defeat 50 enemies with the 92FS - 9mm All the weapon trophies require that you kill a set number of enemies with that weapon. Kills count over different playthroughs, so if you kill 30 enemies on your hard playthrough and 20 enemies in your crushing playthrough with the 92FS, you would get the "50 Kills: 92FS - 9mm" trophy. After you complete the game for the first time, you can buy these weapons along with infinite ammo in the in-game store. You enable the weapons by going into the pause menu and then: "Bonuses -> Store -> Weapons -> Weapon of your choice -> Give Weapon". Infinite ammo is found under Tweaks instead of Weapons. These in-game-cheats do not prevent trophies, but you have to use them on a difficulty you have completed before or an easier difficulty.

Pesico Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Online and Difficulty Trophies Thrillseeker Complete one Competitive Multiplayer game UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get this one, just complete one competitive multiplayer game. You will also get it if a friend of yours sends a video of his competitive multiplayer round. You can even fast forward all the way to the end and the trophy will pop at the end of the video. Buddy System Complete one Cooperative Multiplayer game UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE You have to play one game of Co-op Objective to get this trophy. The trophy will pop when you complete it. Charted! - Easy Finish the game in Easy Mode See "Charted! - Hard" Charted! - Normal Finish the game in Normal Mode See "Charted! - Hard" Charted! - Hard Finish the game in Hard Mode You have to complete the game on hard difficulty to unlock crushing. If you beat the game on hard first, you will also get the trophies for Easy Mode and Normal Mode. See "Charted! - Crushing" for tips. Charted! - Crushing Finish the game in Crushing Mode Before starting on Crushing difficulty, you have to complete the game on Hard. Some general tips: 1. Use cover a lot (that is the most important thing you have to do and you do it by pushing the button) 2. Try to do as many stealth kills as possible, when possible. This will not only make the rest of the gunfight easier, but might give you more ammo drops, such as grenades as well as using less ammo. 3. Go for headshots as it saves ammo. 4. While you're in cover, enemies might try to flank you. If they are close, just shoot using the button without aiming. 5. On crushing, the enemies will toss more grenades at you while your in cover. Always scout out an alternative cover position so that when a grenade lands just in front of you, exit cover and run to another spot where you can use cover.

Pesico Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Drake's Fortune Multiplayer Pack Sneaky... Get 50 Stealth Kills UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE In order to get a stealth kill, you have to sneak up behind an enemy and press . This has to be done 50 times. If you are level 34 or higher, I can recommend using the 'Walk Softly' booster that costs $79,500 in the in-game Multiplayer store. 'Walk Softly' means you move silently. You might also get an advantage if you use the skeleton skins or one of the PlayStation heroes skins (DLC) as they don't talk. Brass Knuckles Get 100 Melee Kills UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To melee someone, get close and hit . With no other damage, it will take two hits to kill someone with melee. Other tactics could be to blindfire your enemy as you are closing in on them and then press for an immediate melee kill. It might take some tries getting used to how much damage you have to deal with a gun in order to kill someone with one melee hit. If you know your enemy is using either the 'Invalid' or 'Glass Jaw' booster, one melee hit is enough. This trophy will pop when you reach 100 melee kills. Tastes Like Chicken Get 20 BBQ Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a BBQ medal, you have to kill an enemy with a propane tank. There are two ways to do this. The first method is to shoot a propane tank when an enemy runs past it. It doesn't have the same blast range as a grenade, so the enemy has to be pretty close to it. The other method is to pick up the propane tank with and toss it with and then shoot it with . Do not aim when you do this, as it will automatically hit the propane tank. Just shoot it when you think it's close enough to an enemy to kill. You have to do this 20 times and this trophy will unlock. The 'Treasure Bearer' booster will let you walk in normal speed while carrying the Propane tank and is very helpful to get BBQ kills easier. You must be level 24 to get it and it costs $43,500. Thanks to Bolugle for this tip. Rapid Fire Get 7 Tripled Medals in Deathmatch UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE A Tripled medal is awarded when you kill 3 enemies in rapid succession. There are multiple strategies to get a Tripled medal but they all include having enough enemies in a small area so you won't get a chance too often. I usually try to keep at least one grenade on me so that when I see a group of people, I'll toss it. A shotgun can also be effective. If that's your thing, then just move around with the left stick and blindfire when you're close enough. If you're a good sniper, you might be able to kill 3 people fast enough with the FAL or Dragon Sniper. If you get two kills in rapid succession (Double Down medal), look around fast to see if there is another enemy you can kill immediately. I Told You I Was Hardcore! Complete All 3 Co-op Objective Maps on Hard Difficulty UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE As the descriptions says, you have to beat all 3 Co-op Objective Maps on hard difficulty. The maps are as follows: - Nepal Warzone - The Village - The Sanctuary To unlock hard difficulty, you have to beat one map on normal difficulty. It's only the host of a party that needs to have hard unlocked. Either go to 'Matchmaking' and then 'Co-op Objective' or use Custom game to get this trophy. If you are the host of a party or are simply going to matchmaking to play with random people, make sure you click and set Co-op objective difficulty to hard. Teamwork is important to beating these levels. Stay relatively close to each other so that it's easier to revive each other and use cover. If you need a partner to boost with, use the Co-op Buddies thread. Made It Finish Wave 10 in one Survival Game UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE Go to 'Matchmaking' and set playlist to 'Co-op Arena' and then hit 'Find Match'. This playlist covers both Survival and Gold Rush so you might not get the game mode you want first but this shouldn't be too big of a problem. You can also use the 'Custom Game' option to get this trophy but I recommend having a party of 3 when doing this. When you have started the game, your task is to clear 10 rounds of enemies, and each round will be harder and harder. Cover and staying close to team-mates is important. Make sure you pick up the GAU and/or Rocket Launcher whenever possible. Gold Digger Finish Wave 10 in one Gold Rush Game UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE Go to 'Matchmaking' and set playlist to 'Co-op Arena' and then hit 'Find match'. This playlist covers both Survival and Gold Rush so you might not get the game mode you want first but this shouldn't be to big of a problem. You can also use the 'Custom Game' option to get this trophy but I recommend having a party of 3 when doing this. This mode is similar to Survival but this time you will have to deliver the treasure for each round. Just follow the arrows that will lead you to the treasure and then follow them back to deliver the treasure. It's important to work as a team and stay close together. It's also important to know that the treasure will reset if you leave it for a while. This means if you carry it close to the goal for instance but have to leave it because there are to many enemies, make sure you return to the treasure to pick it up before it resets. Wipe Them Out... Win 50 Deathmatch Games UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE Go to 'Matchmaking' and set playlist to 'Deathmatch' and then hit 'Find match'. You will also find deathmatch under the following playlists: - Ranked - All Competitive Modes In order to win a deathmatch, it is your team that has to win the game. The goal of deathmatch is to be the first team to reach 50 kills. You don't need to be the best player yourself. As long as your team reaches the kill limit first, you have a win. After 50 wins, this trophy will pop. Plays Well With Others Win 50 Objective Games UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE Go to 'Matchmaking' and set playlist to either 'Plunder' or 'Objectives'. You may also choose 'Ranked' or 'All Competitive modes' as a playlist but you might end up playing non objective games if you do so. When you reach 50 wins in objective games, this trophy will unlock. Still Alive Win 50 Elimination Games UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE Go to 'Matchmaking' and set playlist to 'Elimination' and then hit 'Find Match'. The 'Ranked' and 'All Competitive Modes' playlists also includes 'Elimination'. Elimination is a game mode that is divided up into best of 5 rounds. You only have one life each round and the team scores a point when they eliminate everyone on the opposing team. Each round lasts 3 minutes. If both teams have at least one player alive after 3 minutes, no team gets a point. After you win 50 Elimination games, this trophy will pop. Plundered! Get 200 Captured Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a Captured medal, you have to play Plunder and your team has to score the treasure. There is a potential of 5 Captured medals in each game. It doesn't matter if you or anyone of your teammates collects the treasure. This means you should focus on protecting the treasure carrier if you don't carry it yourself. You need 200 of these medals to unlock this trophy. Cold Blooded Get 2,500 Kills in Deathmatch or Elimination games UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE As the trophy says, get 2,500 kills in Deathmatch or Elimination. Just remember that it's only kills in 'Deathmatch' and 'Elimination' modes that counts towards this trophy. If you have played this game online before, it's also worth mentioning that the kill count only starts when you buy the Drake's Fortune Multiplayer pack. You can track your progress towards this trophy and all other online trophies in the 'Trophies' menu found on the 'Multiplayer' menu. Edited September 13, 2022 by Viper Added server closure notices.

Pesico Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) Siege Expansion Pack You Can't Break Me Complete all three Co-op Objective maps on Crushing UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE As the descriptions says, you have to beat all 3 Co-op Objective Maps on hard difficulty. The maps are as follows: - Nepal Warzone - The Village - The Sanctuary To unlock crushing difficulty, you have to beat one map on hard difficulty. If hard difficulty isn't unlocked, you have to beat a map on normal difficulty. It's only the host of a party that needs to have crushing unlocked. Either go to 'Matchmaking' and then 'Co-op Objective' or use Custom game to get this trophy. If you are the host of a party or are simply going to matchmaking to play with random people, make sure you click and set Co-op objective difficulty to hard. If you use matchmaking, it's the host that decides the difficulty, meaning you might play with a different difficulty than what you have set yourself. Teamwork is important to beating these levels. Stay relatively close to each other so that it's easier to revive each other and use cover. If you need a partner to boost with, use the Co-op Buddies thread. Under Siege Finish Wave 10 in one Siege Game UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE If you have completed wave 10 in a Survival game, this should come easy. To access this mode, you either have to use matchmaking and choose co-op arena. There are two other modes on that playlist (Survival and Gold Rush) so you might not get Siege every time you do this. If you have at least one person (I recommend two) you can go to custom game and choose both map and Siege as game mode and it will still count. Siege consists of 10 rounds with stronger and more enemies for each round you clear. At the start of every round, an area marked by a circle shows you where you have to be. As long as all players are within this area, a timer visualized by a circle will fill up. Try to stay within this area while you and your team mates kill enemies. Try to get to a high vantage point if possible and if a team mate gets downed, revive him if possible. If everyone dies, you will start at the beginning of the round you where on, and you get a total of 3 tries. Speedy Get 10 First! Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'First!' medal, you have to get the first kill of a game. It will most likely come naturally for you before you have all the other trophies. Knowing the maps could work in your favor. At the start of games, people often goes for the power weapons. Knowing where the power weapons are in each map will give you an advantage in getting the first kill as you can just wait close to those locations and kill those people with a grenade for instance. When you get 10 'First!' medals, you will get this trophy. I'll Cover You Get 50 Defender Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Defender' medal, you have to kill a player that is actively shooting one of your teammates. This is a medal you'll probably get more than one of in most matches and should therefore come without much effort. To improve your chances for 'Defender' medals, you should be on the move and stay close to teammates and generally do what you usually do, shooting enemies. The trophy will unlock when you get your 50th 'Defender' medal. Fallen Angel Get 50 Afterlife Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get an 'Afterlife' medal, you have to kill an enemy after you are dead and is a very common medal. There are two good methods to get an 'Afterlife' medal. If you know someone is going to melee you when your injured, toss a grenade at your feet by aiming with and tossing the grenade with . This will almost guarantee a kill as it's impossible to move while in the melee animation. The other method is when you know you're about to lose a firefight. Toss a grenade by aiming the grenade with at your opponents feet and toss it with . This method isn't bulletproof as experienced players should be able to get away from the grenade. You're also likely to get a few :afterlife: medals when you and your enemy kill each other at approximately the same time. The trophy will unlock when you get your 50th 'Afterlife' medal. Not So Fast Get 20 Shut'Em Down Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Shut'Em Down' medal, you need to kill someone that is on a streak i.e. five or more kills in a row. There isn't really any tactic involved to get this type of medal. You just have to kill enemies and let them come naturally. The trophy will unlock when you get your 20th 'Shut'Em Down' medal. Jack of All Trades Get 15 Triple Threat Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Triple Threat' medal you need to get the following in the same match: - Three kills with long guns (AK47, M4, FAL etc.) - Three kills with pistols (92FS, Micro, Pistole etc.) - Three kills with explosives (Grenade, RPG, BBQ etc.) If you're having trouble getting grenade kills, try tossing a grenade at your feet when you know someone is about to kill you with a melee attack. If you struggle getting kills with the 92FS, you should try and go for the Pistole. It's a one shot kill if you're blindfiring close enough to an enemy. You Run, I'll Shoot Get 10 Protectorate Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Protectorate' medal, you have to shoot and kill 5 enemies that were damaging the treasure carrier. It doesn't matter if the treasure carrier dies. As long as you kill an enemy that has damaged or killed the treasure carrier, the kill will count towards the five kills that is needed for the 'Protectorate' medal. The only mode to get this one is in Plunder. What you want to do is to follow and protect the treasure carrier and kill everyone that shoots at him/her. If you're not in a party, it can be hard to get enough kills as sometimes people are playing Plunder as if it was Deathmatch and therefore, not picking up the treasure. If that is an issue for you, I suggest teaming up with at least one person. One will have the role of carrying the treasure, and the other will try and shoot those attacking the treasure carrier. Switch up the roles after each game so that both will get the 'Protectorate' medals. Communication is important. Use the built in text chat or use headsets to talk to each other. As soon as one person gets the 'Protectorate' medal, change the roles so that the one carrying the treasure might get one as well. Unless you're lower than level 24, everyone in the party must use the 'Treasure Bearer' booster. When you get 10 'Protectorate' medals, the trophy will unlock. Back at Ya Get 50 Retaliation Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Retaliation' medal, you need to kill the last player that killed you. There are a couple tactics you can use to increase the chance of getting these, but most likely, you will have 50 of these before you even know it. When you are killed, the camera will some in on the last player that killed you. Take a note on the location of your murderer and try to hunt him/her down. The most successful approach however is when you know someone will kill you with a melee attack. Aim down at your feet with and toss a grenade at your feet with . This will give you both an 'Afterlife' and a 'Retaliation' medal. When you get 50 of them, the trophy will unlock. Kneel Before Z... Get 5 Put'Em Down Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Put'Em Down' medal, you need to kill someone with a pistol weapon while the enemy is in the knockdown state. Knockdown state is when an enemy is down on one knee and unable to move. The easiest way to get an enemy into a knockdown state is one shot with the M32-Hammer. After shooting someone with the Hammer, continue to hold to aim and click to switch to your pistol and kill your enemy. Another method to get someone in the knockdown state is to use a grenade, propane tank or even an exploding car but it is hard to do that accurately as you might miss completely or kill your enemy. When you get your 5th 'Put'Em Down' medal, the trophy will unlock. Edited September 13, 2022 by Viper Added server closure notices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pesico Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) Rock A Rhyme Get 100 Tricky Medals UNOBTAINABLE DUE TO SERVER CLOSURE To get a 'Tricky' medal, you have to kill a player with a pistol weapon while hanging. There is no need to switch to your pistol as it's automatically equipped when you are hanging from a ledge. Now you just have to find a ledge to hang from, push to aim and shoot with . You'll get the trophy when you get your 100th 'Tricky' medal. I hope the guide helped you to get your Platinum but if you have any questions, then feel free to ask in this thread.

I didn't know it either, but a friend sent me a video. Was pretty surprised when I got the trophy:P And no, I won't sticky my own guide. I'll let Korix and mendel_skimmel decide what guide to use on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may just be the PS3 Browser screwing up, but I don't see the trophy tiles next to the "Charted!" and online trophies.. Not a big deal though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEHHHHHH Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) The easy chapter for survivor is Chapter 10. Continue without dying and you will have the trophy before or when you get to the chapter "locomotion" Edit: This forum is getting really competitive. 2 Treasure guide (in text), 2 treasure guide (with video), 2 trophy guide. I'd say we are getting almost as good as our sister site. Edited October 22, 2009 by EEHHHHHH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parker Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) Pesico, I hope you don't mind but I'm going to add tags to your thread. This will get you a lot of traffic from Google and other search engines. It's where I got the majority of my traffic for my NFS guide. If you would like me to remove the tags so you can add your own, just let me know *EDIT* As I'm not the author, I can only add two. You may want to add some to get more views (I will remove the two I just added..) Edited October 23, 2009 by parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parker Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Thanks parker, I totally forgot. Did that with my Uncharted guide, and was planning to do it here as well. Yeah the tag system works well for search engines. My NFS guide was nowhere to be seen in Google, but after tagging my thread and waiting a few days, my guide was top result in Google when searching "Need for Speed: Shift trophy guide and roadmap" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkyweed Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Great guide! The content is quality and really helpful. But the videos are the ultimate! The Steel Fist Expert vid really helped a lot, I couldn't understand the other descriptions. The treasure videos are top class and totally comprehensive.
