You will need around 450,000-600,000 more EP after doing EVERY quest and side mission and Infantry give 2 EP and Brawlers give 35. Whereas the first few missions give almost 10,000. While I guess it's "possible" to do it one the idea is to get all achievements as fast as possible and a second playthrough is needed to get in done quickly.

No I understand it just fine, found it quicker to pull of the map and set a way point to an exact point than running around after the rubbish hunting tool.

I don't know if anyone realised but the map pulses were the black boxes are if you go to the collectable map in game.

The pulses only show the general location and they can be off by quite a bit.

You should still put in the guide that its there tho.
All I did to get them all was get a chopper and fly over the pulses everywhere until I got them all. It was good to get all collectibles so easy since the first one was such a pain in the ass lol

Ok you can get 950-1000 on your first playthrough. The consume upgrades even if you accidentely kill them reappear anyway. Just run around the town until you have all 42. Time square is a common spot I got 4 there all on different occassions.

If you really wanted to yo could fully level Hellar on the first playthrough aswell.

Good lord, I can not for the life of me Whipfist into a chopper. I'm obviously doing something wrong, but have no idea what it is. Grrrrr.

Literally 5 seconds after I posted this... achievement unlocked.

Hey... look at me I'm an idiot! lol

Actually, I was jumping and holding B and would go to the choper just not with the Whipfist. I finally got it by standing on a building where a choper would pass buy and holding B without jumping. I dunno, but it worked. lol

Oh I see lol, that's how I did it

Glitchy achievement number one: I became level 23 and spent my last point on the final ability and do not have the achievement for All Growed Up.
I am reverting back to a previous save and reget that last level to see it if I can get the achievement.

[DaCameraMan]

Pretty good guide. Achievements were pretty easy to get. Playing through my second play through. 3 more achievements to go.

[Timmythebadger]

Good guide I hope it will help some, but for me very easy game compare for the first one, one of the few game I didn't need a guide for a even one of the achievement...

And I think when we will have all the radnet chalenge we could xp max Heller without playing another game I will wait the last challenge for this and let you know.

Ok so i read somewhere that your upgrades via consumes that some are only available during missions? Is this true, i do know i missed one of a mission by accident? So does that mean i will need to play through it again or will it spawn randomly in another position?

You'll find a lot of consumable in the Red Zone. And about leveling, you can actually restore a checkpoint and keep the experience point (consume those with DNA). Then you can consume again until one point where the DNA no longer shows up. Then reload the save point and u'll keep all the experience point and then you can redo the mission (try this with one of the Blacknet mission, level up 3 times using this method). So no, you don't need to do another game to fully upgrade Heller.

[LarZieJ]

For the Hard achievement, do you need to play on HARD that's avaible right from the start or on Insane?

That's always a good trick to note, i shall try this.

So when it comes to consumins upgrades i will more than likely be able to find them scattered about? Even if one of them was in a mission doesn't generally mean it can only be gotten from that mission?

[D347H0FL0V3]

I'd like to add that a very easy way to get Arcade Action is simply kick a helicopter that is just sitting on a helipad. That's how I got it.

The upgrades are more than enough in the game, not necessary from the mission. If you lack of upgrade in the final few chapters, you'll have a good chance to find some brawlers which has consumable weapon upgrade near Times Square in Red Zone. Once u're fully upgraded, they can be consume for EXP (DNA).

On the STRIKE, YOU'RE OUT achievement, I found this to be a lot easier and got it by chance.

When I was going for ROAD RAGE, I was using an APC in the yellow zone. The first Strike Team that was called in, I fired the TOW missile straight away at the Helicopter and the achievement popped up.

Really easy and got it quite early.

Hope this helps a bit, for people.

[DarkJake]

Nice, just got 1000/1000. Was going to sell the game but I want that Mercer outfit, so I'll hold to on it until then. Any plans for DLC that has extra cheevos? Otherwise I'm getting rid of this after the avatars are unlocked.

[Foxxy kyle]

When do all my upgrades and whatnot come into play in the second playthrough? I did New game+ and Im on the start menu and went over to the "Heller" tab. But none of my upgrade and stuff from my first playthrough are there.

EDIT: By the way, I am on the second mission right now. After I just fought the first big infected to prove to Father Guarra that "It could be done"

Although I completely agree with you, the "Minimum Playthrough" is 1

I can choose to play more then once if its quicker yes (which i will do) but i can also play once and spend time getting EXP, my choice.

Usually more then 1 playthrough is because of difficulty or the way achievements can be earned.

I'd put 1 Playthrough (2 Recommended)

Awesome awesome guide man, keep up the good work

[jules the great]

Guide is perfect. Im thinking of grabbing the 1k even tho I got the Platinum on the PS3. It was just seriously so damn easy...lol

[Timmythebadger]

No even with the full radnet challenge I didn't have enough XP and had to do two levels on new game+ to 1000G but with the trick that was post it is possible and with some moping on checkpoint but doing it in one go I think you have to do new game+ like me.
Despite that easy 1000...

[Twinnedwhale]

If you wanna do this achievement without just running up a building, just do it in red zone it is pretty easy just dont go on any horizontal platforms

[I mak3 big boom]

Thanks Bahroo. Got my 1000 now to start Alan Wake!
