Goots 88 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 (edited) Warning! This is the first guide I’ve ever made. Please don’t be too critical. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This guide is solely based off my experience and play through. Overview Estimated achievement difficulty: 3/10 Estimated time for 1000: 5-7 hours. Minimum playthroughs: 1 Missable achievements: None Glitched achievements: None Offline: 28 Online: 5 (4 out of 5 can be done by yourself; Xbox Live -> Host Match -> Four Private Slots -> AI Bots: Enabled -> Start Match Do Cheat's disable achievements: No cheats Multiplayer Achievements: Sharp Shooter Finish an Online Match with at least 70% Accuracy Shoot 5 varmint (small game) with your shotgun ONLY. Make sure all 5 shots are hits. Host Match -> Four Private Slots -> AI Bots: Enabled -> Start Match Dirty Player Use at least 4 different Perks against opponents in an Online Match See Greifmaster Griefmaster Use at least 8 different Perks against opponents in an Online Match Host Match -> Four Private Slots -> AI Bots: Enabled -> Start Match Easiest Map : Canyon. Go into the valley of the Canyon and just keep shooting varmint. Small Game, look like pigs. The Mission Comes First Complete 5 collected objectives in Online Matches Host Match -> Four Private Slots -> AI Bots: Enabled -> Start Match Kill a Big Game Animal and walk over animal to collect gold bars = objectives Objectives: Kill 3 varmint, kill 3 birds, record 2 Long Shots, etc. Complete 5 of these. This is Cumulative (Thanks to RecipeForHate). Does not have to be done in a single match. Kill Stealer Kill an animal wounded by an opponent during an Online Match Must be completed w/ another player on live or against AI Bots. Have other opponent shoot and wound animal (Must be a Big Game Trophy). Animal will now hunch over and walk very slow. Try and have them aim for legs or rear. Kill the animal your opponent or friend wounded for achievement. Edited November 30, 2011 by Goots 88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goots 88 Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 (edited) Shooting Galleries: Quit Diggin' in my Yard Obtain Gold medals in all Prairie Dog Shoot Courses Use Shotgun. LT to zoom in and aim Lost Lake – Level 3 Use Shotgun in beginning to shoot the animals that come out of the front 3 holes. As soon as you get 3 Prairie Dogs in a row, the special Prairie Dog will appear. Hit Y and switch to rifle for the kill. After Turnip (Red) Prairie Dog is accounted for, take your time taking out the rest, shotgun or rifle, user preference. Note: Shotgun only reaches Prairie Dogs in front section. [*]3 in a row without missing a shot = Bonus Prairie Dog (Red Turnip) [*]Time Bonuses are key. More likely to get Gold with quick finishes, instead of racking up points w/ consecutive category kills [*]My Gold Scores (Something to aim for) Sonora: 7500 Milestown: 7480 Old Homestead: 8210 Lost Lake: 8890 Hunting for Gold Obtain Gold medals in all Hunters Challenge Courses Birds are a must. They are the largest number of animals within the levels. The more birds killed, the higher Level you reach which equals more points per bird Practice, Practice, Practice. Most I received Gold on 3rd run through. Become familiar with which animals are in which section so you know whether to have your rifle or shotgun ready. Targets and Perks may also help. Know when to use your perks. Not a good idea to use your spread perk (widens the shotgun spray range) when a rifle section is coming up. My Gold Scores (Something to aim for) Mirror Lake: 23130 Evergreen Mountain: 74435 Camino Dorado: 55616 Rimrock Valley: 49130 Crack Shot Obtain Gold medals for all Courses in the Shooting Galleries See Quit Diggin’ In My Yard and Hunting for Gold Big Trophy Tournament: Mutant Deer Take down at least one Albino Deer Whitetail Deer. Play all 5 rounds to gain access to a “Unique Trophy Animal”. On the 6th round you will get a Unique Animal (Big Rack, Mature Deer, Albino). If the Trophy is not an Albino, restart hunt. DO NOT finish hunt if not an Albino, you will have to repeat steps 1-3. My Strategy: Ran around level using HUB to locate the animals within the map. As soon as I spotted an animal I would zoom in on the animal, if the trophy symbol comes up within the scope, that is the Trophy Animal, the one you need to hunt to continue to next round. Mutant Elk Take down at least one Albino Elk See Mutant Deer; except on Elk Trophy Hunt. Edited October 13, 2010 by Goots 88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goots 88 Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 (edited) Career: Make sure difficulty is set to Pro Hunter Difficulty Take your time throughout “episodes” no time limit. Plus, when moving slow you get stealth kill bonus +100 and Stealth Movement Bonus +20. Big Slam’s are key: before a Big Trophy is hunted make sure you kill one small animal and a bird. It will net you an additional 100 points. Also, on levels that involve you to make a duck call, use as many times as you can. 20 points per call. See Master Quaker. On timed missions, shoot as many varmint as possible. My strategy. Each level has 2 Big Trophy’s. DO NOT RUN until Trophy’s are killed (you will not get stealth bonuses). Kill a varmint then a bird and then slowly crouch near big trophy, call animal with LB while you are in cover. As animal begins to approach kill with bow giving you Slam Bonus, Bow Bonus, Stealth Bonus, Heart (or Spine) Bonus, Call Bonus, Close Range Bonus for 600 points plus additional trophy points. Collect gold over trophys dead corpse, complete requirements for objective bonus. Rinse and repeat for 2nd trophy animal. Gold Requirements (A+): Please note these are my scores that I ended up getting and receiving A+ Pennsylvania: Episode 1: 2334 Pennsylvania Early Fall: 5185 Alaska Early Fall: Episode 2: 4217 Alberta Early Fall: 7470 British Columbia: Episode 3: 6066 Pennsylvania Fall: 5345 Alberta: Episode 5: 6369 Alberta Late Fall: 5520 Episode 5: Montana: 1943 Montana Winter: 6435 Alaska Early Spring: Final Episode: 4201 Open Season Finish your first hunting mission Can not be missed Best Thanksgiving Ever Hunt 2 toms Play Episode 4: Alberta twice. Alternate method as mentioned below by SKIN RIP: "Kill the tom then load last checkpoint and kill him again....pop " Ringneck Warrior Hunt at least 10 pheasants Repeat Pennsylvania Fall as many times as you need to kill 10 birds. All Birds on level are pheasants. Run / Shoot Shotgun in trees to make them flock or wait for Migration. Wingman Take down at least 40 ducks Repeat Episode 1: Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania Early Fall, or Episode 2: Alaska Early Fall. Repeat until 40 are killed. Hard to miss.

Use duck call until 3 awesomes achieved. Hold A then releaseà count 1,2 release. [-- -- -- -- --] Try and get 5 calls (noises) within one series. May just take a few tries and getting use to. Trophy Sniper Take down 5 trophies with one shot each Clean Shot Bonus – 1 shot kill for 5 Different Trophies I got mine while going for The Mission Comes First achievement in multiplayer. Out of Sight! Hunt a Big Game Trophy from more than 80 yards Can not be missed Film Expert Film at least 2 episodes worth more than 100 points After each Big Trophy kill you will get an opportunity to film the kill. Tip: If there are multiple animals near the kill site, try and get all animals within the lens for multiplier bonuses. This should come throughout natural game progression. After a film is over, you always have the option to edit to get another chance to obtain over 100+ points.

Patmaster Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Can you eventually give me an advise for the Griefmaster Achievement? I have all online ones except this one. I am choosing the map Canyon with 3 AI opponents and shooting birds and boars like hell. When I see a red perk, I'll sprint for it to get it. I use it right away on any of the AI but I don't get the achievement at the end of the match. The 4 perk one was easy, but it seems to be that there are no 8 different perks on the map.

Goots 88 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 As far as advice goes. Make sure it's on 3 AI bots. Like you mentioned use perks as soon as you get them, whether they are green or red. The greens just take up space (please note greens don't count towards achievement just to make that clear). Choose the map canyon. Start the match in the valley shooting pigs, when there is a break in action move up top to the start point and shoot birds. Birds tend to give different red perks. Don't get frustrated, you'll eventually get it. I got in on my 3rd match. Also, stay near your opponents as they will make kills too and you can steal the perks they get. As I said before, never keep any greens. As soon as u get a green, use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmbledore Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 You mention 2 playthroughs, what's the purpose for each playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goots 88 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 The reason I put 2 playthroughs was because of having to play Episode 4: Alberta twice for the BEST THANKSGIVING EVER achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmbledore Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) I take it thats because you cannot replay that level and hunt the turkey again? If you can replay, I would suggest removing 2 playthroughs as 2 is not truly necessary. Edited October 18, 2010 by Dmbledore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmbledore Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) In reference to the following: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mutant Deer Take down at least one Albino Deer Whitetail Deer. Play all 5 rounds to gain access to a “Unique Trophy Animal”. On the 6th round you will get a Unique Animal (Big Rack, Mature Deer, Albino). If the Trophy is not an Albino, restart hunt. DO NOT finish hunt if not an Albino, you will have to repeat steps 1-3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If an Albino does not appear in the 6th round you do not have to repeat steps 1-3. All you have to do is hit the Start button and exit to the Main Menu of the game and start the 6th round again. Repeat this step until an Albino animal appear. Again, it is NOT necessary to play rounds 1 thru 5 again. I don't know if that's what you meant but it was not clear enough. I can verify this works. Today a non Albino animal appears and I did this. On my 4th attempt an Albino animal appeared. Edited October 19, 2010 by Dmbledore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goots 88 Posted October 19, 2010 Author Share Posted October 19, 2010 That's why I put if an Albino does not appear DO NOT FINISH HUNT. Meaning, exit out of hunt and restart. Sorry if that's not clear I thought it was pretty self explanatory. In my case I recorded a long shot on what I thought was an albino and had to repeat level 1-5 again. Very frustrating.

montrossity Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Thanks a lot for the guide as it helped me obtain 1000 gamerscore very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JieXY Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Just a heads up. Kill Stealer can be obtained by playing with bots, but it's kinda hard to pull off since you don't know which big game is hurt. It all happens down to sheer luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebeest86 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I rented the game from gamefly and I am trying to get the Kill stealer acheivement by playing locally like it says in the guide but I cant figure out how to set up a local game?

Any help would be appreciated! Online: 5 (4 out of 5 can be done by yourself; Xbox Live -> Host Match -> Four Private Slots -> AI Bots: Enabled -> Start Match To my knowledge only a few have gotten the Kill Stealer achievement using AI Bots. Your better off using the Achievement Trading Thread or sitting in a lobby waiting for someone to join. Goodluck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granstaff Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Please re-word the achievement solution for Kill Stealer because it is very misleading. I was under the impression you could set up a local match with a second controller to earn this since you stated in your guide you could set up a local match with another player, which from my observations, you cannot. You can only do this online, as I'm sure you know. A little frustrated now since I may be stuck with this game from GameFly longer than I anticipated as I try to find a booster. I haven't looked at the rest of your guide yet since I wanted to get the multiplayer out of the way first, but I'm sure it's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuffzx Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) Nice guide but: Blood Hound Find 10 animal tracks achievement can be missed it's one of my last ones infact I didn't have any but I just replyed the Montana level and there's 3 animal tracks and you can reload the checkpoint. The Ringneck Warrior guide didn't work for me they all aren't pheasants I killed like 20 of them no achievement popped. But anyways thxs nice guide Edited November 28, 2011 by Nuffzx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goots 88 Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) @ granstaff - my apologies. I fixed the kill stealer achievement. However this can be done with AI Bots. A guy on my friends list got it with AI Bots. Try setting up a private match with 1 bot. Follow him around and cross your fingers that you will get a chance to clean up one of his kills. Good luck. @ nuffzx - as far as the ringneck warrior achievement goes, as I mentioned in the guide, from my experience, all the birds I killed during the Pennsylvania Fall level were pheasants. Make sure your playing the right Pennsylvania level. It's the free roam one, not the photo shoot one. And as far as the Blood Hound achievement goes, it's not missable. It is not missable because you can replay levels if need be. Missable is when you complete a game without getting an achievement and in order to get that achievement you would have to start from scratch. Thanks for the feedback PS - any one know how I can get a Mod to post this to the achievement guide tab?
