For today's video
we'll look at how to get a forklift load
of kill achievements using Meltdown.
Get it? Get it?
*Laughs*
Ok, so the story behind this is that
I was trying out my previous strategy for the Dance Party Trophy
(25 SMG kills in 25 seconds),
and I realized that Jewelry Store isn't as easy to pull off,
so I tried looking for a better alternative,
which brings us to Meltdown.
Why Meltdown?
Because Meltdown, even on Normal,
has at least 26 scripted Murky spawns.
And after adding the regular assault enemies,
the total number will go up to over 40
or sometimes even 50.
So when these enemies bunch up together,
it makes it easy to get certain kill achievements.
Before we go into the video,
I want to point out that I will be using a HUD mod called WolfHUD,
to demonstrate the spawn and kill counts.
Whatever is shown in this video
can also be done without mods.
Now let's look at the setup.
For the setup
we will be hiding out in a particular container,
which is this one where my laser is pointing to,
below us and to the right of the forklift.
We would also want the contents of the container to be suitable;
either this water-tank-ish things
or two wooden crates stacked on top of each other,
so that we can hide behind it
while waiting for enemies to bunch up.
This is also the irritating thing about this method;
we have to restart until we get the correct type of contents.
So assuming we have the correct container,
what we'll do from the start
is to walk pass the red barrel into the warehouse
to trigger the spawn scripts,
then we head back to the container,
open it up, and hide behind cover.
Just a quick replay here,
when we trigger the scripts,
we can see the spawns immediately jump from 10 to 18,
and after some delay it will again jump to 26,
just for the Murky spawns alone.
Now we're back in the container and hiding,
all we do is Netflix and chill
*beep*
all we do is chill
while the enemies bunch up.
Usually I'll wait until the 3 minute mark,
or until the first flashbang detonates
before I pop out and do my thing.
For achievements or trophies that need more kills
(like Dance Party, Human Sentry Gun or Spray Control)
I recommend waiting a bit longer,
like until 3 minute 30 or even 4 minutes game time
so that the most of the enemies
can gather near the container.
And that's it for the setup.
Skill-wise, Bulletstorm (aced) and
Shock and Awe (aced) or shield knockback
will help for some achievements.
Now time to read out some achievements.
Of course, this is not the complete list
and in future there might even be more achievements
that will benefit from this method.
For LMG achievements,
if we own the historical pack DLC for the Buzzsaw
we can get 3 at one go,
while without, we can get 2 at the same time instead;
Killin's as Easy as Breathing,
Bullet Hell and Human Sentry Gun.
Note that there is a very small space to deploy the LMG
so try spamming the deploy button
while fidgeting about in the right corner of the container.
For SMGs,
we have of course the Dance Party trophy
and Spray Control for the Tatonka SMG.
Bulletstorm (aced) is recommended here.
Then explosive achievements;
Big Bada Boom, Not Invited
and Nobel Prize,
self-explanatory.
Peacemaker achievement,
Fastest Gun in the West,
recommended with Bulletstorm.
The Lebensauger one,
11 kills without reloading,
is now extremely easy with Graze.
Just aim for the head and get the achievement.
Last 3 achievements in this list,
are all released together
with their respective DLC packs,
but as of today, can be achieved without DLC,
to get one step closer to that Immortal Python skin.
Seven Eleven,
7 shotgun headshots in 11 seconds.
Triple Kill,
just fire the Platypus
into the bunched up enemies with a body shot.
Then we have Disco Inferno.
I remember this unlocking for any player
just by being in the same game
as someone else who has fire weapons,
but for this video,
just drop an incendiary grenade
and watch them burn!
And that's it for this video.
Some demonstration clips are coming up
so stay tuned.
Note that in some of the clips
the killcount is already at 1
due to the Bulldozer spawning in the container.
Otherwise if any of you guys have tips to contribute,
drop a comment,
so that others can read it for some help.
Thanks for watching,
and I'll see you all in the next video.
