Ah, that explains it. I did a lot of road rage events along the way to Burnout License (I find them the easiest by far). I didn't do that many Road rages (So I assume you did 6 more than me as you only needed 94 more events).

It's gonna take me a few days to get to Elite now I think, but still enjoying this game immensely!!

100% finished (in game, not achievements) and you're awarded with a lovely "Platinum" finish for your cars.

Very nice!!!!

how long that take you?

I'm ashamed to admit that the "Hours" reads: 99:21:45 but I reckon 20hrs of that has been online, so near enough 80 hours.

Finding all the smashes, billboards and jumps has been the hardest, especially the jumps. At least with the smashes and billboards there's an indication that you've already done them, but the jumps didn't give (or appear to) any indication.

Just thankful that the game has a breakdown by area otherwise I'd still be finding them now.

we playing?

I'm knackered but up for some barrel rolling

NokkonWud · 3 Feb 2008 at 21:01

Oh my dear god. 100 hours Jason?
I hope people aren't waiting for projects to be completed

I spend a good 5 hours messing about and boosting down the long coast roads - attempting to get the x20 boost. When i realized everyone did it in the stadium i was quite annoyed

How the hell can you boost in the stadium?

Speed car. They multiply with enough drifting. You hold sharp left or right when boosting and your boost bar keeps going up, so you get the 20x Burnout achievement.

Slinky1989 · 3 Feb 2008 at 22:32

How long does it take to get up to 20x then? It isn't like the portal falling achievement where you had to leave the poor cow falling for about 5 minutes before you got it is it?

Psymonkee · 3 Feb 2008 at 22:33

I just did a lap and a quarter of the I-88 in the oncoming lane

O FFS I spent days trying to go round the interstate without hitting owt. :mad:

NokkonWud · 3 Feb 2008 at 22:35

I'd already figured out where I could do it before it was reported on the net. I think you can do it around the fountain or the main grass area of the quarry too.

Doug · 3 Feb 2008 at 23:17

Or the airfield

You need to earn enough boost for the burnout to chain, so just kick it into a drift and you're golden.

Kohaashi · 3 Feb 2008 at 23:41

4 days till I join the party.

I just hope there'll be plenty of booze left.

Or just do it online with a race, no traffic, oncoming on the freeway
