Cruezilla Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 Ok guys just to inform you all. Boosting this is very possible. 8 Of us got the achievement today. Big thank you to everyone who helped. To those interested pick a low star team, restrict your settings as much as possible. We got the best results when playing as the same low star team with the same kit then you can hopefully get paired up. We found sometimes we would find each other every time and some times it would take longer so just keep at it. Good luck everyone going for this.

ashleary Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Just to add to what Cruezilla said, To do this, you need a minimum of 5 people if you're prepared to 'play' each other more than once. This will allow you to boost wins to each round, rinse and repeat. Earlier on this afternoon, we had 8 in a party and we were zipping through various rounds left right and center - it seemed it took forever for 1 person to get the win and the about an hour for the other 7. Finding each other seemed to go in waves. For 15-20 minutes, we'd find each other in a search very quickly. After a while (usually when Cruezilla pointed out how well it was going...) we'd find ourselves not picking up matches - bear with it, it'll come good eventually. Country of origin doesn't affect searches either. We had users from England, Scotland, Germany, USA and Canada and could find each other (granted some a little easier than others but still, it is possible). If you find yourself paired with someone that isn't in your party, you have 5 minutes to quit the game before it counts as a loss in that round. Obviously, you need the ball to be able to pause and quit so if you find yourself without possession at 4 minutes, dashboard! The 5 minute rule also applies to you quitting out for the boost as well. Our method was an own goal and quitting out at 5:01 and after - this worked every time. Quitting also works in the final as well. Remember to always press B once you've won the cup and returned to the brackets screen. Pressing A will re-enter you into the cup and you won't get the achievement. Finally, cheers to our party this afternoon. Plenty of laughs, we all got the achievements and even leveled up a bit in the process! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggnogga Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Was good fun. Thanks all who helped. Found it amusing that afterwards, me and Lizard UK boosted the Online Friendlies achievement which is the same gamerscore (30gs) as the Cup Win which took 4+ hours to fully boost, and we got that achievement in 5 minutes.

itsnotunusual Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I would join also, but I don't have too much time. Can the last party that did it estimate how long it took you guys for everyone? Btw GMT+1. edit: never mind, just read it took about 4 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsnotunusual Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 So I would be willing to do it, sometime on Saturday. I could be on from 9 am UK time to maybe 6 pm in the evening (not nonstop) if we get 5 or more people. I did some pencil work and it's not possible to do with less people. I was trying to do a sophisticated plan on how to do it and came up with 15 games for one achievement. (Which is the exact number of games in a tourney bracket, so I wasn't being too smart in this case ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vapona88 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) I'm up for doing it this weekend at any time, but prefer saturday daytime Edited January 10, 2013 by vapona88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GovnaBerry Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 it's kinda hard to do. My friends and I did that up until the championship and then we couldn't get a match to form for some reason. Definitely the hardest chievo in the game to get without boosting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefy2times Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hey guys, up for boosting this as had a go during the last cup window, and although I got to the final a couple of times I got raped by either Messi or Ronaldo! I'm on GMT time, and the earlier the better on a Sat as I have a game later in the afternoon! GT: Chiefy2times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
