ok this achievement i would say is the easyest one in the game i got it from standing still not movin at all and not getting any damage done to me. ok this is what you do:
go the bridge what goes to the 2nd island but the one with a train track under it
walk along the train track towards the 2nd island
when your about half way you will get 6 stars
then you just stand on the train track and wait for 5 mins then you will have itthis is so easy because the police cars drive on the bridge above you so they cant shot you and the helicopters are above you so you have cover from them
hope it helps you out

I don't have the game but shouldn't you be shot at by a police chopper/boat?

start a new game, drop off roman then do the above, you get 12/13 save slots, so just make sure u dont save over your game

Yeah it's looking like that's the way to go. Oh well starting over and playing for 10mins isn't that bad. Thanks

Anyone know what the NAME of the bridge is?
Great find, but I'm just clueless as to what bridge it is.

If memory serves me its the bottom one rather than the top. (Going from first to second island) You can get it going from the 2nd to the 3rd as well. Just jump in the water and there is a nook in between the upright for the bridge and the rocks. Helicopters can swing round to get you. Snipe them.
You can check your 5 minutes progress in the stats as well.

The helicopter took a few potshots at me, missed. Worked wonders.

As you look at the map it, it is the northmost of the two bridges that travel east/west to the other island.

Will definately be trying this when i get the game, is there anything you need, like certain guns, stats etc or can you just go striaght there from the start?

You can pretty much go straight from the start. You don't need anything specific. I was happy that I had a gun as a couple of the cops fell down to the track level and started shooting me, but I could have just as easily run away from them.

Can anyone give a quick image or guide on which bridge.... I've went back to the first island, and been to two bridges, however having trouble finding a railway track below a bridge...

this does work but you atleast need a gun cause they will drop down and fire at you like one or two at a time my buddy did it and was telling me so if you go without a gun be ready to die if you arent in the right stop

another easy method is to just grab a helicopter, fly over the airport and voila, 6 stars. fly around for 5 minutes and achievement unlocked. that's how i did it.

Cheers for the help sully, i might just take a gun to make sure i dont want to die now after all, thats the thing that im trying not to do :P keep up the great work everyone. u's will be completing this in no time... (the fact i dont have the game yet goes against me though)

04-28-2008, 09:35 PM
ive just done it, u dont need a gun or anything. I did take a car. The swat team got clever with me and roped down from the top to the bottom to come and get me!! I drove away though.
colburn
04-28-2008, 09:38 PM
ill try the heli approach or just do the new game either way i want it haha

To escape from 4 star wanted level, get to 4 star wanted level, then take a car on the tracks that go underneath ALGONQUIN BRIDGE, then keep going and you go underground, when you lose the circle, just stay in one place for a few seconds and voila - achievement unlocked!

Can you be more specific. How do you get a car on the tracks?

You can only do with when the other parts of the city are off limits, that's how you get wanted.
I thought I'd be cheeky and kill two birds with one stone, so I drove back down the tracks (oh yeah, I took a taxi with me... you can do that by driving up a ramp in to one of the stations). I evaded the police and didn't get "walk free" :( Seems you might have to be on exactly 4 stars to get it.

Keep walking around the general area. You'll avoid getting shot but ensure that you retain the wanted level.

I see your method and raise it.
I did it by driving into the airport and stealing the annihilator helicopter and flying that around for a few minutes. Its got a gun too. :) It was in the northern part of the airport just sitting waiting for me to steal it.
I was only a few missions in, so im figuring its there from the first mission, but someone feel free to correct me.

Nice advice, did it without a gun nobody dropped down. Thanks buddy!:Bounce:

Can you be more specific. How do you get a car on the tracks?
Drive up the grass and drop it off the top onto the track (it's way off from the shore)
Position the car so it's easy to drive away then shoot a couple cops.
Get in the car and drive into the tunnel, towards the sea.

Thanks bub. That was very useful. Can the OP edit their first post to include this? Great tip to both of you! I'm hoping I can do this tonight before any of my friends start inviting me to MP matches, lmao.
I tell ya, I have ONE single player achievement because of MP invites...not that I'm bitching or anything, lol.
