Inertial Drift: [WIP] 100% Achievement Guide – Inertial Drift

Even though this guide will tell you when you’ll get the achievements, the reality is that you practically don’t need it.
Most of the achievements come from playing the story.
Still, if you need help with a particular one, use Ctrl+F and look it up.

• Oh, I Get It! – Use the Drift Stick.
• Look Who’s Finally Ready To Play – Complete the tutorial.

The “lowest difficulty” in the game comes from playing as Edward, so we’ll start this guide with him.
This part is pretty straightforward because most achievements can be unlocked by playing any other character, but to prepare ourselves for the difficulty of the later achievements, you only need to play the game as him to get these achievements.
This part won’t have any secret knowledge, every achievement is unlocked by playing the story.

• Scanning For Weaknesses… – Compete in a ghost battle: Complete the Ghost Battle event in Lakeside Loop.
• You Only Get One Shot – Compete in a time trial: Complete the Time Attack event in Lakeside Loop.
• Start Your Engines! – Compete in a race: Finish the race in Lakeside Loop.
• I Have You Now – Beat the set time in any Ghost Battle. It’s easier in Lakeside Loop.
• Checkered Flag – Win a race. Easier in Lakeside Loop.
• Take Care Of This Loser – Compete in a duel: Available since City Skylink.
• Every second counts – Earn gold in a time Attack. Easier in Lakeside Loop.
• Razor Sharp – Unlock the Katana: Available after beating Corey.
• Cool Vibrations – Win a duel.
• Turn right to go left – Compete in a style event.
• The Perfect Lap – Earn a platinum medal: I got mine at the first Style event available.
• Ice Cold Refreshment – Unlock the Boba: Available after beating Esmee.
• Sliding with style – Earn gold in a style event.
• Go Ballistic! – Unlock the Bullet: Available after racing against Talsin.
• Why so serious? – Unlock the Jester: Available after racing against Samira

• All The Force Of A Great Typhoon – Unlock the Ventus: Available after racing against Riku in City Skylink
• Stay Between The Lines – Compete in an endurance test: Available at Sunset Sea Circuit
• Almost There… – Hit a checkpoint with less than 1 second left: I got it at the last checkpoint of the endurance test, the one after the “finish line”. If you don’t get it here, don’t worry. You can get it later in the Arcade Mode.
• Unflappable – Earn gold in an endurance event: Don’t worry too much about it, drive the same as you were doing before and it should be fine.
• So Much Still To Learn – Complete Ada’s Story.

• Multidimensional – Unlcok the 7D: Available after racing against Gunner in Lakeside Loop.
• Where We’re Going, We Don’t Need Roads – Unlock the Gecko RX: Available after the duel against Lucas.
• No Room For Doubt – Complete Ibba’s Story

• Careful, They Bite – Unlock the Raptor: Available after racing against Bautista.
• Et Tu, Brute? – Unlock the Gladio: Available after racing against Zhara.
• A Force To Be Reckoned With – Unlock the Impuls: Available after racing against Sinead.
• Stronger Together – Complete Viv’s Story

• I’ve Just Been In This Place Before – Complete an event on a reverse track layout: Go to Arcade and select any track you like. REMEMBER TO SELECT “[Track], R”.
  Lakeside Loop Practice is the shortest because you can finish one lap and finish the event.
• It’s A New Record – Set a leaderboard time in Arcade Time Attack: Select any track you like and go into a Time Attack event. If you beat the gold time before finishing all the laps, you can select Finish Event in the options.
• Trendsetter – Set a leaderboard score in an Arcade Style event: Select any track you like and go into a Style event. Beat the gold rating to get the achievement.
• All Night Crossing The Line – Complete 10 laps in practice mode in one session: Select any track you like and get those 10 laps (If you haven’t beaten Viv’s 47 seconds, I encourage you to practice right now).
• Well Travelled – Complete an event on every track: This one’s a chore given that there are 7 events in every track. If we count the reverse ones, there are 140 events you have to complete. (Disclaimer: I haven’t tried the achievement without the Reverse tracks. I’ll change this section if it only counts the normal ones)

• Perfectionist – Achieve 100% on a story mode playthrough: Choose the save in which you have the most percentage (Ada in my case). Get all the gold medals for the achievement to unlock.
• Did You Order Original Recipe Or Extra Crispy? – Complete a story playthrough on “Xtra Crispy”: Pretty self explanatory. Select your favorite character, then Xtra Crispy and finish the game with it.
• Complete Mastery – Complete grand prix mode with every car: Self explanatory

Remember, this guide is a Work In Progress. I still have 7 achievements to go atm.
