Review :: Burnout Paradise - Xbox 360

[Digerati]

Smiley I thought the same thing till a couple of days ago till I changed tactic... since then I flew through them and got my Elite license.

I did the same run with each one. Pick them up wherever, travel to the mine (just after the dam) using boost when the combo time is running low, do all the jumps and billboards, then head down to the south bridge (they'll be a super jump outside the mine which leads you straight to it, do all the jumps on the bridge heading back into the city, then directly after the bridge there is a right which heads to another billboard, go through that and then you'll go directly over a super jump. By this point you'll have 20x+ multiplyer which will usually be more then 500,000 points and takes no more then 10 minutes each time.

That's a line which i've used a few times, and it works very well, the key as you say is to boost when the combo is low. Also make your way to the stadium and if you got a burnout car then speed round the stadium using your boost to get a burnout and just keep going, you can get up to x20 burnouts.

finally got my 1337 licence last night, last all the stunt runs until last and spent over an hour on 1 before i found an easy way to demolish them.
i was struggling on getting 300k big time and was thinking of all the stunt locations i knew and then realised that in a stunt car if i drive slowly (while boost breaking the time limit) i could get to the quarry, but before jumping in - do a double barrell roll of dead mans edge (on the same road as the quarry, its the one in the vid i posted with me and gtech) then drift upto the quarry, double barrell roll off there, head back to the top and flat spin off again - each double barrell roll is a X6 multiplier and flat spin is X3, even if you miss a barrell roll you will still get EASILY inside the score as by doing this i was racking up scores of over 2 million

as for the baseball stadium drift, they have changed it in a hotfix i think gtech as you dont get a multiplier anymore doing it

88% through - gotta get it finished by tonight as its BSLV2 tomorrow baby

[gtech]

Nice 1 mate, i was on it last night but round a friends, was getting just over a million doing what you were but then heading down towards the bridge and along the front.
Yep seems a hotfix has stopped the stadium drift and the backwards marked man events. Got the vids to post up but just having trouble with my phone/pc drivers...

[Prime]

sexy
i need to find 1 more jump and 1 billboard then all i gotta do is road rules - i think its going to come to a point tonight where im looking for that last board going round in circles and its going to be stuck on 99% FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
if you can, shoot them vids up on photobucket or something - the gestapo Management banned youtube

thanks for all the tips lads, i will give them a run out soon

Hey Prime you know that paradise city is split between 5 districts... and when you press select and it show's the map with the different events, if you go down to bottom of menu it shows the districs and the amount of smashes/billboards/super jumps in them and the amount that you have done, so you know which smash in which district is left.

DISTRICTS...

yeah beeeuuuuud'eeeee

[Prime]

done and done!!
need a few road rules then its done with . . .but its 3am, im off to bed and its RSLV2 tomorrow so it might be a while before i hit that last 3% (still a few online challenges to do which are messing up my percentage )

[Digerati]

lol, your more dedictated then I was Prime. I was also trying to finish it before RB:V2 but stopped at 11 (work night ). 97% with about 20 showtimes to go.... not gonna get to 100% for a while now I reckon

[Prime]

99% now with one award left to do: Stunt run with 40x multiplier best i got last night when i had a quick bash was 36.
just a quick top for anyone going for 100% on two of the rewards you need to chain boost 10x and 20x, there is a small game glitch on one of the petrol stations (extreme east, then north. its just below a spray shop): approace it from the south and when the road vears into the station there is a sharp angled barrier seperating it from the road, approach it SLOWLY and just before contact hit the boost, with the poin in the middle of your bumper it keeps you there and chains your burnouts.

bit of a cheat i know but i got sick of going round the I-88 trying to do it in my slowest speed car

[gtech]

lol, nice i'll give it a go. I'm @ 85% at the mo, gonna give it a blast tonight although with gt5 in the store i might be tempted, but i'd prefer to get a blu-ray disc.

[Prime]

what u got left to do dude? just smashes, jumps ect, road rules and awards?

[Digerati]

100% for me. Though kinda wish I wasn't, I haven't really played since I completed it
