Authoring the post incase anyone needs help or a tip getting x achievement or whatever.
There are spoilers about shit you might like discovering on your own. Don't read unless you want to know.
For the achievements,
I already have most of them, minus the car racing/stunts, and the rooftop racing. Maybe 2 or 3 besides that. The ones I don't have, I might've fucked up on and beat the game too early for. So be careful.
Working on the Rampages and Car jacking ones right now, but I think they're going to be extremely hard now that I've beaten the game.
Also, feel free to add any tips, exploits, or your strat to get x objective complete.
For example, I was so bored Sunday, I built a ramp out of cars (I stopped counting at 438) to get inside wangs building, and climbed up to his garden.
Almost every kingpin and general has a way into their fort, that skips seeing ANY gangsters shooting at you, until you come face to face with the boss.
There are several spots to your grind firearms skill to full in shai-gen hood, near supply points, in under 5 hours. (Same goes with explosives. Just shoot the rooftops.)
These spots have gangsters on the ground, accessible from the highest points in the map. You face them (via camera controller), and shoot them. Circle the camera around in a 360 (to cycle the dead fucks out of your field of vision) and when you look again to where you shot them, theyre respawned.
You can also get the Firing Squad, and Untouchable Agent achievements like that too.
Jump everytime you shoot ANYTHING. Standing and firing at your target costs you agility points.
Jumping adds distance to your kills.
Distance adds extra agility bonuses.
Always put more distance into your shots.
The best place I've found pre-end-of-game, to grind vehicle points is at masons quarry in volk hood with the agency supercar. Alternately, waiting until you beat the game is easy too, since all gangsters stand around on corners 3-7 deep. You can smash them then if your car holds up.
Try to get the carjacking achievement in los muertos hood, right when you start the game, before you kill their car supplying general. They've got the highest concentration of enemy cars.
Body Juggler Achievement is easy with the 15 shot rocket launcher, and being in shai gen hood.
Shoot a nip off a high building and make sure you reload immediately after unloading. Keep firing. Practice.
The rampage achievements are best had after killing a kingpin. When the Final Crime icon appears on the map, you've got 15-25 gangsters to kill.
This is your ONLY chance in the game to have that many people such a small place.
In open spaces, (think, 10x10) Grenades vs bosses own. Target boss. Run within range, peg them with a grenade. Boss drops to the floor for a second, you switch to rocket launcher, the grenade blows, juggling them in air while you start to unload with the rockets. Permanent boss-stasis.
In smaller areas, like Wangs tower, just get up there and melee if you've maxed strength.
The global impact achievement can be found if you knock the globe to the ground, in the front of the observatory tower and throw it at 15 gangsters. It's found in the northmost point on volk island, in between two roads leading north. Have fun rolling it around.
Ring Leader Achievement is probably easiestly had in co-op, teaming with someone with maxed strength.
Simply get in your car, and let your buddy throw that car through the purple rings. Once I get live again, I'll test that out. I bet I'm right.
Chainbanger Achievement. blow up 100 explosive objects in 60 seconds.
I've found like 3 places total in game that this can happen. I won't spoil everything. Just remember Limpet mines.
A lot of the car stunt achievements are cake, once you fully level up the suv. It jumps about 20 feet.
etc.
