Do the Trick It event on the global Himalayas event TODAY!

madmankevin · 03-04-2012, 02:34 PM

It's almost at 50,000 riders and I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if this one gets 50,000 unique riders, this will be the last time this game on the 360 will have that feat happen.

Ride this event today or miss out guys!

For those that don't know, to get the Gold Spender achievement, you need to participate on a global event with 50,000 unique riders for a badge to complete that achievement. Knowing how communities tend to disperse, and also knowing how many dozens of drops this game has...

THIS ACHIEVEMENT COULD VERY WELL BE UNOBTAINABLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE!

Go to Global Events, look for the trick it event with almost 50,000 riders and a huge cash pot, and attempt a run. You'll be fine even if you're new at this game and can only put up 100 points. You just need to register an attempt at it!

FYI everybody and good luck!

^^^Thanks, I was too lazy to turn my Xbox back on!

Diablo Himself · 03-04-2012, 03:39 PM

Sad fact for most of those 50,000 people, you have to RE-play the event AFTER there are 50,000 people in it to get the badge. =/

Maka · 03-04-2012, 03:44 PM

Today seems like hope. And yes, make sure you play it again after it has 50,000 to get the badge!

Genetix · 03-04-2012, 03:52 PM

Cheers for the heads up, I wouldn't have known about this otherwise. I've just completed the track a couple of times to pass time until it hits 50,000. Do you have to get a certain score or placement or do you just have to complete the course?

Not even entirely sure you have to complete, might just be join and participate, but yeah no score/placement is needed. Just a re-entry after 50,000 other participants.

Genetix · 03-04-2012, 04:09 PM

Okay, cheers mate.

It's slowly gone from 47,900-ish to around 48,330 in the last 30 minutes or so.

Hasenpflug · 03-04-2012, 04:22 PM

Thanks for the heads up, I'll jump on in a bit.

kmk978 · 03-04-2012, 04:23 PM

gonna try this in a few hours. hopefully I get it

Diablo Himself · 03-04-2012, 04:28 PM

Yeah its been at a slow climb from 45k+ Im pretty sure it will get there, but idk if it will ever get there again unless retail price drops soon to like $40.

JJBDude · 03-04-2012, 04:36 PM

Am greatful for this thread as I presumed I wouldn't need to re-partake, now I see I have to. Pretty sure we will hit 50k on this one and as stated, this may be the one and only chance to get the badge, make sure you get on people.

I don't think it can drop. Once you've participated, your data is saved.

Aiden 514 · 03-04-2012, 06:20 PM

Servers are down for me, fuck.

For some odd reason I saw this coming....EA servers down during remotely high traffic, who'd have thought lol

Servers seem to be back up. Go Go Go!

StayonTarget · 03-04-2012, 06:55 PM

I'd say in maybe the next two hours it should be at 50k. God. What are people going to do in a year from now?

sparky6565 · 03-04-2012, 07:14 PM

Currently at 49,604..the diamond score is 149,065,584. WTF?

49,745....

I know, right......my highest is something like 12,000,000 which I know I can improve in given the time but 149,00,000, and even players below him that have hit 60,00,000...............how?? :S

macpride · 03-04-2012, 07:38 PM

Its at 49.7K.... c'mon 300 more people!!!! lol

JJBDude · 03-04-2012, 07:55 PM

I got 32,000,000 and that pretty much involved no messing up at all and making sure ever combo I landed was a x20. I haven't fiddled around with stuff yet (such as specific charcters, tricks, routes to take) to improve my score but I can imagine 60 mil isnt too bad once you know what you're doing. The 150 mil people have to be glitching though I reckon.

JJBDude · 03-04-2012, 08:06 PM

No we're not? 35 still needed as I checked a second ago, just a couple of minutes to wait now.

MusicInjection · 03-04-2012, 08:07 PM

its still at 49970...
