Love the Boom Achievement in Far Cry 3

  • Love the Boom

     

    10

    Kill 4 enemies simultaneously with one explosion (Single Player only).

  • How to unlock Love the Boom

    This can be unlocked with any weapon or equipment that gives of an explosion, so don't be nailed down by one thing. Personally the best is the RPG-7 which can be found at any store under the Launchers menu or obtained for free by unlocking Radio Towers. Now for the best chance at getting this, head to any un-liberated Outpost. Once you arrive, make sure you get caught and the enemy NPCs set off the alarm. Now wait out the battle until the reinforcements arrive. Keep an eye on the map of the location they're coming in from and wait there. Once they arrive, it'll be a convoy of 2 vehicles and it's the second one you're going to want to shoot with your RPG-7.

    If you get the hit, the vehicle holds 4 enemy NPCs and the they'll all die and the achievement will unlock.

  • Just Fuck them up with c4 baby!!!
  • True art...
  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddecOUcpcWA Get an explosive weapon from a weapon locker or general store. The RPG-7 rocket launcher works best. You can either buy it or activate radio towers to get it for free. Now go to the Welshore Wrecker's House Outpost (coordinates X: 437.9, Y: 795.0) and make some noise until the enemies activate the alarm. Wait for the reinforcement Jeeps to arrive, but keep at least one Outpost guard alive. In the second Jeep (the one without the turret) are usually 4 soldiers. Shoot this vehicle with your rocket launcher before the soldiers get out. Alternatively you can also plant some C4 and group up some enemies, then blow it up. If it doesn't work on your first try simply get yourself killed and you should respawn somewhere around the Outpost and can try it
  • Got it on the mission where you have to kill Vaas. After I got out of the burning building I unleashed a tiger from it's cage then fired an RPG in their direction. Luv da bum.
  • Yeah I got this for some reason late in the story, many times I had killed 3 people with a nade but the 4th some how survived. I jut did this though easily when I was in a Bunker (one of Hoyts missions) and I don't know if it was ment to be or I got lucky but 5 AI's stood still in the same location next to each another so I just cooked a Nade, tossed it and boom achevo. RPG's work well though as Power has said.
  • anyone know a way to get this achievement when u have controlled all outpost's? kinda hard to find enemy's now .
  • i got this achievement in the trial called transport destruction near badtown, soo much easier doing it this way
  • I've tried the YouTube link above and the transport destruction trial and got 4 kills with 1 explosion numerous times and NO achievement! >:l Anyone else having this problem?
  • easy way without even sounding a alarm only takes a minutes hears the video http://youtu.be/6U1JVJBk3J8
  • I got it to work. After I blew up the jeep with 4 guys I jumped a bunch like PowerPyx did in the video link in #3 and the achievement popped. I guess the jumping helped with the glitch lol
  • If you've already liberated the outposts, try one of the Wanted Dead Quest. Didn't take long at all.
  • ty all 4 good tips the wanted quests got it 4 me
  • I got this on the very last outpost that I had left, totally lucked out, just fired random grenade launcher shots, i never even saw the group that I hit. And I ended up completing it undetected, lol.
  • I've done this with everything from mines to rpg's killing 4 - 6 people in one go and still nothing, i've restarted the game now in hope to get this !!
  • Very simple way to do this: later on in the game, after meeting Sam, you play a mission where you have to zipline back and forth over a gorge and then pick up an RPG to blow up two cars on a bridge. Don't shoot the cars directly. Just shoot the RPG right at the middle section of the bridge and it will blow up both cars and all the people on the bridge. Pop goes the cheevo.
  • Seems to be glitched 4 me. Did a mission to help a stranger get back his necklace, poker-winnings and knife in the town where u first land on the other sland after willis takes u there. Blew up the one that had the knife and his 3 buddies + dog with an RPG, but didn't pop 4 me...
  • Gotta revoke my upper post. Cheevo isn't glitched. Just got it a few minutes after my post. Maybe it didn't work since i am/was wearing the privateer outfit and these "enemies" in that mission (also privateers) weren't counted as enemies. Got it liberating an outpost by shooting 4 guys with an RPG.
  • While covering the repair of the plane I hit an incoming jeep with the grenade launcher. Very satisfying explosion results and one achievement.
  • Do what Cougar3268 did. It was super easy! Go down to one of the Trial of the Rakyat near Badtown. The Transport Destruction trial makes you use the RPG-7. Don't shoot until the second jeep comes down from the road in the middle. Then, wait for the jeep to come across the guys on the left and BOOOM! Achievement has been served...
  • i got the 4x kill in the Transport destruction twice in a row and it didnt pop a cheevo.
  • Bullshit, the jeeps only have 3 guys in them
  • Got it when retrieving the third iitemduring the side mission (blue icon) in Thurston Town. There's 4 guys and a dog standing in the red area. Approach them from behind the big rock and throw a grenade in their midst. If it fails then choose to retry the mission from the menu.
