Crackdown Q?

[FAMOUS]

I heard once you beat the game "all the bosses" you cant do certain things anymore, like find orbs or kill gangs anymore.. Is this true, since i heard this ive been just upgrading my guy, scared that the game will end if i kill the last two bosses i got... Any truth in this or can i finish these two bosses and still do all my races/orbs/upgrade.. any help is appreciated

[Alucard79]

After you beat the game, you can turn on or off the crime. I'm not sure about the orbs though. I would imagine that the ones you have not found will still be there.

[heybtbm]

After you beat the game, whatever orbs you didn't find will still be there. You can also turn crime "on" or "off". If you turn crime "on", the gangs reappear (without their leaders) with a vengance. It gets hard just trying to run down a street. You'll definitely want to turn crime "off" when you looking for the remaining orbs.

Everything is still available after all the bosses have been beaten. If you still want to battle gangs you will need to turn crime "on" at the screen where you select single or co op play. This option shows up after you beat the game. You can leave crime "off" and still collect orbs and run races.

There are only 900 points for Crackdown so far. I currently have 750. The "find all 300 hidden orbs" achievement is almost too overwhelming to even start.

Actually - the game comes with 900. Which is kinda weird..

[FAMOUS]

i assumed 1000, 900 is wierd

[Gamereviewgod]

They'll add the additional 100 points with a free download later based on player feedback and what they enjoyed doing.

..powering up?

[Joker T]

I'm guessing they decided on the 900 points before MS changed Achievement policy.

Supposedly there is going to be another one of those viral achievements at a later date, to fill out the other 100...

I heard that - I don't know if it's true or not. But I kinda like those viral achievements... :)

[Nesmaster]

I have 900/900, and am patiently waiting the extra promised 100...

im still wondering why multiplayer via xbox live sucks ass with this game.

Whenever i agree to let someone join my game, the screen just sits at "waiting for other user" forever and never connects.

And I have yet to see anyone accept me into their game. Tried 100 times by now, and no one agrees.

[CYRiX]

can u say halo 3 beta acheivements? :D

[Nesmaster]

I thought the game only had 295/300 orbs and the remaining 5 were from a future download, which would make that achievement impossible to get right now.

[heybtbm]

There are a bunch of people on the xbox.com forums that already have that achievement. I think it's time for me to get a guide and go for it.

[s1lence]

No all 300 are there, they verified that in a couple of the maps that they have all the orbs listed on. Some of them are right next to each other so thats why some of of the lists only 295 or the 300. I could probably get them but I haven't printed off the maps to do it.

[Nesmaster]

Yeah, there certainly are maps that show all 300, check achieve360points.com.

I broke down after finding 283 myself and used the guide for the remaining 17 :).

[Joker T]

I'm using a map right now to find the orbs, I found around 120 hidden and 460 agility without any guides but it's gotten too difficult.

That's really impressive you got the full 900 there Nesmaster, congrats.

[NE146]

Yeah, there certainly are maps that show all 300, check achieve360points.com.

Ok I'm there.. where's the map? All I see is this. http://www.achieve360points.com/game/crackdown/

How about a direct url? :p

This is the one I've been using:

Yeah... I was feeling lazy that day :). I used the one Joker posted, along with the high rez map. Some of the remaining 17 I needed.... I would NOT have found without the guide O_O.

The direct link on A360P was http://www.achieve360points.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=29213

And thanks Joker, I spent a lot of time trying to do it without a guide (like 50 hours total game time or so for all the achievements) but I eventually broke down :P. I did find all the agility orbs myself though. I was stuck on the last agility orb for 10+ hours alone...

[heybtbm]

I'm curious which one it was. For me it was the one on top of the bank building in Los Muertos. I could see it, but I couldn't get on the roof. Finally, after a few desperation jumps (99% of which made me fall all the way to the ground) I made it up to the roof.

[Nesmaster]

Mine was a case of magic appearing orbs, because the last one appeared in a place I KNOW I had, and WOULD not have missed. It was on a high building on the Shai-Gen island, Across from the Ernest Hotel.
