Everything and anything to help a wide ranged of people looking to pick up the multiplayer achievements.
The Run Down
Add me as a friend and I’ll do the same. My schedule is your schedule. I’m free to be up in any time zone, I would just need to know before hand to change my sleep around.
Do to the amount of people I have and will be helping, I want to create a step by step run down on how I’m expecting things to run.
There are a lot of types of players. Some who have never touched the game and are jumping right into multiplayer. Some who have beaten the story mode but has been a long time since then, forgetting the basics on how to play the game.
So if some parts seem obvious to you, they might not be for others. You are free to skip around by navigating to what section you are interested in.
I’m expecting the game to crash and you should too. The game also doesn’t like Tabbing out of focus, definitely in full screen mode. I found running the game in Windowed mode helps this a little. And that, it’s easier to change screens if you are typing to me.
Maps are random, so we can’t pick and choose. If you want the map specific achievement.
You are free to pick up any towers that aren’t around my base. We will be getting the faction specific achievements first, then the 50 win. Hopefully along the way the map one should just pop.
I’ll just be surrendering immediately when we are done with the faction achievements. Still counts as a win for you. This is just faster to do than having you beat me with troops.
Getting Started
This allows me to keep track of your wins. Don’t worry about other players. The game is basically dead to the point we will be the only ones in there. If there is someone else, it’s not going to slow things down that much.
While in Matchmaking this is what we will see the most of while farming the 50 wins.
There are three Faction to choose from. Make sure you are on the right faction for the achievements you are going for before you find an opponent. To do that, just press that red highlighted section I show here.
By selecting any one’s name, you will be shown the wins & losses tab. This is how we can keep track of how close you are to be getting the 50 wins.
How to Play
You can skip this part if you know the basics.
As I only have a keyboard and Xbox controller, I will be using those buttons.
Right Stick in, or F.
Right Bumper, or Tab.
Placing a Beacon of Light – Left Bumper, or Middle Mouse Button.
Attack – Up on D-Pad, or 1.
Defend – Down on D-Pad, or 2.
Move to Beacon – Right on D-Pad, or 3.
Follow – Left on D-Pad, or 4.
I find only using Place Beacon & Move to Beacon to be good enough. If used on, or near things of interest, they will just attack anyways.
Right Trigger, or Q.
You will need to push more buttons at the right time to actually finish the song. (like a rhythm game)
Towers
This is how they look when we spawn in. We need to take the leeches down in order to make a tower. Summon two troop units to take them down. I will do the same on my end.
This is how they look when we remove the leech. Now you have to play a Song in order to summon your tower for increase income.
The song is Called Fan Tribute.
Faction Achievements
I will be leaving my group of troops near your base, or in the middle depending on the map. I don’t want my troops attack your towers.
If the map is too big, or is annoying to play on I’ll just surrender to find a better map.
Ringleader – Buy one of the Fire Baron’s troops and interact.
You will be driving the bike. Use the ability to draw a circle around my group. The ring of fire needs to be completed in order for achievement to trigger. So hold the ability down until it happens.
Painkiller – Buy a Rock Crusher and interact.
You will need to run over my troops for the achievement.
The fireworks attack and ability doesn’t count. You can’t turn off the fireworks and the driving sucks.
Dollpocalypse – Buy the Brood and interact.
Drive the doll into my troops and use the ability to blow it up. Best used when in the middle of group.
Euthanasia – Buy a Warfather. Use them to then summon the Pain Lifter, interact with it.
Use its ability to throw a ball and explode it in mid air very close to my group.
Blowing the ball up too far in the air won’t do any damage.
Death From Above – Buy Bleeding Death. You need to play a song called Launch of Death after.
This will bring down a pod, if you don’t move, it will kill you. A monster will finally show up. This is what needs to kill my troops for the achievement, not the pod itself. So using the song away from me would be better. Then I can rush in there when it shows up.
50 Wins
I’ll just be watching / listening to something in the background while this is happening. So by no means should you feel obligated to talk with me during this time. Not that I wouldn’t mind.
You are free to remove me as a friend when all is done. The likelihood of us actually talking after is probably never anyways. And if anything, you know where to find me again in the future.
