=============================================================================== [ Title ] Burnout Paradise [ Platform ] Xbox 360 [ Version ] v0.4 [ Author ] Adam "The Adman" Stevens [ E-Mail ] [email protected] [ Updated ] February 5, 2008 =============================================================================== =============================================================================== Introduction [BPINTR] =============================================================================== Welcome to Paradise City, where the grass is green and the cars are pretty. Perhaps the only thing that can't be argued about in Criterion's newest Burnout game. Gone are the circuits to be replaced by a giant open-world environment. Gone are crash junctions, replaced by the bouncy Showtime mode. Gone is a retry button but gone are loading screens too. Love it or hate it Criterion created a very accomplished game, and one that I hope to do justice for with this FAQ. Some areas may be incomplete for now so don't start hounding me for Smash locations and so forth, they will be here in time. My email is right there at the top so fire away with any sensible questions, I will do my best to answer them. If you're trying to find something, hit Ctrl + F and use the 6 character codes attached to each section and sub-section of the guide. Doing this should take you straight to what you need. If you think I'm missing something important (that it doesn't look like I'm going to add at some point anyway) then again, email me to let me know. Anyway, I hope the guide proves useful for people, and that you're all enjoying the game! =============================================================================== Contents [BPCONT] =============================================================================== Introduction.....................[BPINTR] Contents.........................[BPCONT] Controls.........................[BPDPAD] Menus............................[BPMENU] Cars.............................[BP1000] Boost Types.....................[BP1100] Speed..........................[BP1110] Aggression.....................[BP1120] Stunt..........................[BP1130] Shutdowns.......................[BP1200] Auto-Repair Benefits............[BP1300] Car List........................[BP1400] Sponsor Cars....................[BP1500] Carbon Cars.....................[BP1600] Gold & Platinum Cars............[BP1700] Offline Mode.....................[BP2000] License Progression.............[BP2100] Races...........................[BP2200] Burning Routes..................[BP2300] Marked Man......................[BP2400] Road Rage.......................[BP2500] Road Rules......................[BP2600] Time...........................[BP2610] Showtime.......................[BP2620] Discovery........................[BP3000] Billboards......................[BP3100] Palm Bay Heights..............[BP3110] Downtown Paradise.............[BP3120] Harbor Town...................[BP3130] White Mountain................[BP3140] Silver Lake...................[BP3150] Smashes.........................[BP3200] Palm Bay Heights..............[BP3210] Downtown Paradise.............[BP3220] Harbor Town...................[BP3230] White Mountain................[BP3240] Silver Lake...................[BP3250] Super Jumps.....................[BP3300] Palm Bay Heights..............[BP3310] Downtown Paradise.............[BP3320] Harbor Town...................[BP3330] White Mountain................[BP3340] Silver Lake...................[BP3350] Drive Thrus.....................[BP3400] Junkyards.....................[BP3410] Paint Shops...................[BP3420] Auto-Repairs..................[BP3430] Gas Stations..................[BP3440] Car Parks.......................[BP3500] Online Mode......................[BP4000] Today's Best....................[BP4100] Online Road Rules...............[BP4200] Freeburn Challenges.............[BP4300] 2-Player Challenges............[BP4310] 3-Player Challenges............[BP4320] Achievements.....................[BPACHV] Offline Achievements............[BPOFFL] Online Achievements.............[BPONLN] Music............................[BPSONG] Frequently Asked Questions.......[BPWHAT] Version History..................[BPVERS] Credits..........................[BPCRED] =============================================================================== Controls [BPDPAD] =============================================================================== In-Game Controls Start Engine/Accelerate.......RT Brake/Reverse.................LT Boost.........................A E-Brake.......................X Change View...................Y Steer.........................Left analog stick Manual Camera.................Right analog stick Change Song...................RB Rear View.....................LB Start Showtime................LB+RB Start Event...................LT+RT at event intersection Crash Nav (i.e. Map)..........Back Pause Menu....................Start Turn on Road Rules............D-Pad up 1-4 times Easy Drive menu...............D-Pad right In Showtime Ground Break..................A Move Car......................Left analog stick Hard Turn.....................LB/RB + left stick In Crash Nav/Map Navigate by icons.............Left analog stick Navigate map..................Right analog stick Zoom Out......................LT View Event Details............RT Return to Game................B Change display options........D-Pad Left/Right =============================================================================== Menus [BPMENU] =============================================================================== Criterion have tried to minimise the number of menus you have to use to play the game, and where they couldn't they made them pretty accessible in game. There are a lot of options available to you however, so I will explain them here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pressing Right on D-Pad while offline gives you the "Easy Drive" menu. From there you have these options: Friends - Select a friend to invite them to your game or accept their invite. Freeburn Online - Join a match, create your own or search for what to join. Road Rules - Turn on Road Rules here, just as easy by pressing up on the D-Pad. The Lineup - Takes you to a screen where you can view all of the mugshots you have collected. View Challenges - Lets you view what the challenges are and what you've done. Player Match - Create/Join/Search an unranked game, can be race or freeburn. Ranked Match - Create/Join/Search for ranked games, races done here will affect your online ranking. Leaderboards - View Road Rules leaderboards and your online race ranking. News - View the latest news. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pressing Start on the controller brings up the various Pause Menus: Driver Details License - View how much of the game you've completed, play time, cars owned and number of discoveries found so far. Records - View your highest scores, total takedowns and number of events won. Discovery - Breaks down what discoveries you have and where they were. Useful to limit where you need to look for those last smashes. Under The Hood Save/Load - Save and Load your game, surprisingly. Options - Turn Atomika off, change volume levels, turn your Xbox Live Camera on and off. EA Trax - Control what music you hear and when you hear it. Roll Credits - Unlocked when you get your Burnout License. Screen Brightness - What it sounds like. I had to turn mine down by 3. Account Management - Gives you some options tied to your EA Account such as providing anonymous usage info. Sponsor Product Code - This will be where you enter the codes for the sponsor cars. See later in the guide for those details. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paradise City Live! This menu is actually identical to the one brought up by pressing right on the D-pad in game, you can also view a few stats about your online progression, such as Freeburn challenges completed and online wins. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paradise City Map/Crash Nav (also accessible using Back button) From here you can filter what you can see on the map by event type or by Road Rules options. Very useful for seeing what roads you need to do Road Rules on as well as seeing who's beating you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In-Game menu while hosting an Online game: Friends - Invite friends to your game Select Challenge - Choose a Freeburn Challenge for everyone to do. Road Rules - Turn on Road Rules for yourself Create Match - Create a race or series of races for everyone to do. Change Access - Make the game open, invite only or for friends and recent players. Show Players - Show a list of players in-game and their online stats. View Map - Brings up a map, useful to see where others are. Options - Brings up same menu found when you pause game. Leave Game - Leave the game, this will destroy the game for everyone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In-Game menu with another person as host This is the same menu as when you're host, minus the Create Match and Change Access options. Leaving the game will not destroy it also. =============================================================================== Cars [BP1000] =============================================================================== In Paradise City you begin with just 1 car and have to work your way up from there. There are 81 in total (in the NTSC version) and to get these cars will require you to beat almost all of the game. Some are earned by winning a number of events, some by winning Burning Routes, and so on. As you progress the cars generally get faster and stronger, but even the slower ones have their uses. =============================================================================== Car Types [BP1100] =============================================================================== The cars you unlock throughout the game are split into 3 distinct groups: speed, aggression and stunt. Each is best suited to certain events, but rarely is a specific car the only choice for a job. =============================================================================== Boost Types: Speed [BP1110] =============================================================================== Speed cars use the Burnout 2 way of boosting. You can only use boost when the bar is full, and you can earn Burnouts by chaining your boost together. Boost is best earned with oncoming, near misses and drifts and to earn Burnouts you'll need to be doing at least 1 of those 3 things regularly. Speed cars also have the shortest boost bar which makes them poor candidates for Showtime and the boost bar makes stunt run combo's hard to maintain. Although they are the fastest cars, unsurprisingly they are also the most fragile which really means you're only likely to use them for Races and Time Road Rules. =============================================================================== Boost Types: Aggression [BP1120] =============================================================================== Aggression cars are the largest in size and the weightiest of your choices. Their high strength is perfect for surviving Marked Man and destroying the AI cars in Road Rage. The boost bar is based on Burnout 3, in that taking down cars adds a chunk to your bar (up to 3x) and being taken down removes a chunk. The best way to earn this boost is obviously through aggressive tactics; takedowns instantly fill the bar, but general shunting and grinding works wonders too. The size of these cars generally means they handle like boats, which along with slower top speeds generally means you won't use them in Stunt Runs or Races. However they are perfect for Showtime mode due to their large surface areas and the biggest boost bar in the game. =============================================================================== Boost Types: Stunt [BP1130] =============================================================================== Stunt cars are personally what I use for as much as possible. They have top speeds close to the best speed cars but give you the advantage of being able to boost whenever you choose. Their boost bar size is halfway between a speed car and aggression car, and boost is best earned by doing stunts (surprise!). Obviously they are the car of choice for stunt runs, but will do very well in most races too due to the quick ability to recover from wrecks versus Speed cars. They are not quite strong enough for Marked Man and Road Rage, but will do quite well in all Road Rules events. =============================================================================== Shutdowns [BP1200] =============================================================================== There are 29 cars that you will win for completing a certain number of events, but rather than them showing up in the Junkyard they will start driving around the city, waiting for you to take them down. They won't appear straight away, usually turning up a few minutes later as you drive around the city. Give chase and take them down if you want, it's optional. If you crash then they can disappear, but don't worry as they will show up again and again until you do manage to take them down. =============================================================================== Auto-Repair Benefits [BP1300] =============================================================================== Another thing to note is that every car you own (minus the sponsor cars) will need to be repaired before you can change their paint finish. Also, if you have yet to discover the cars Burning Route, repairing the car will discover it for you and put a star on the map to show you where to go. =============================================================================== Car List [BP1400] =============================================================================== Excluding the Carbon cars and the Sponsor cars, there are 70 normal cars to choose from. They will appear here in the order they show up in the Junkyard. Something I will try to add for every car is how many times it can be wrecked in a Road Rage or Marked Man before the event is over. This varies from car to car and usually the heavier the car is the more times it can crash. Of course, using an Auto-Repair will reset this number so bear that in mind when playing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

The gold paint finish is earned when you receive your Burnout Elite license, and covers the entire car in a shiny gold finish, which you can show off online too. The platinum finish is earned when you complete the game 100% and unlock the Criterion Elite achievement, and it works much the same way as the gold finish. One thing to note is that sponsor cars and Carbon cars cannot be repainted, so if you wanna show off how far you've gone through the game you won't be able to drive any of those. =============================================================================== Offline Mode [BP2000] =============================================================================== The offline mode is the biggest chunk of the game and provides you with a huge of amount of things to do. Everything you do counts for something, be it new cars, a license upgrade or simply better knowledge of the map. The ultimate goal is to obtain your Burnout Elite license, which will require mastery of not only every event type but Paradise City itself. =============================================================================== License Progression [BP2100] =============================================================================== You start off the game with a Learner License and the choice to go anywhere on the map. Drive around to discover events, and start tackling them to upgrade your license. Each time you receive a new license the events you've done will reset (minus Burning Routes), giving you the option to redo your favourites and benefit from it. The last time they reset is when you earn your Burnout License, at which point if you want the Elite License you'll need to beat *every* event. The chart below shows what you need to do to progress: License Type Requirements Learner License Received at start of game Class D License Win 2 events Class C License Win 7 more events, 9 total Class B License Win 15 more events, 24 total Class A License Win 26 more events, 50 total Burnout License Win 40 more events, 90 total Burnout Elite License Win every event, total between 183 and 210* *This number is dependent on how many Burning Routes you completed before earning your Burnout License. As they don't reset, you can end up repeating more events than is necessary if you ignore them or otherwise don't do them. =============================================================================== Races [BP2200] =============================================================================== The most important thing to know about the races in this game is that they can only end in 1 of 8 different places, each representing a point on the compass. There are 40 races in total and 5 will end at each of the compass points, so it pays to know the best routes to each finish line, because the races can start at any intersection on the map. You will never to be told specifically where to go, although the game will try to suggest the shortest route by flashing the road names at the top of the screen as you approach a recommended turn. This can be useful some of the time, *when* it's correct. Go off the recommend path, even if it shortens your route, and you can confuse the game, resulting in it telling you to make less than ideal turns, so make sure you know your shortcuts before using them. If you feel lost pause and use the full map to work out your route beforehand, it takes you out of the game but can be a lifesaver if you're unsure where to go. Following AI cars can be handy as well, although some will get lost too from time to time. My personal choice of car for races is a Stunt car with decent boost and good handling. With so many ways to crash, having boost instantly available on respawning is a godsend. Speed cars do better with zero traffic to contend with, but you'll only see those races online. Also worth noting is that the faster the car you choose, the faster the cars you race against will be, so if you struggle with fast cars and traffic, fall back to some of the slower machines. Anyway, I've grouped the races by where they finish, as generally the routes you take to each will share some similarites at the end. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- South-East - The Wildcats Stadium 1. Stealing 1st Start: Webster & 7th Distance: 1.1 miles Route: This is effectively a drag race down Webster. Stay in oncoming if you want to keep your boost up, but make sure not to crash. A crash early in this race is recoverable, after about halfway it won't be. Should be an easy win in any car. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Curveball Start: Lambert & E. Crawford Distance: 2.6 miles Route: This will start you going south on Lambert. Make a left on 7th which is just up ahead, go with the same way traffic. If you can take the shortcut on the right, take it as it cuts out a turn. If not then make a right on Franke. Follow this South-East until it turns into 2nd Street. Follow this straight until you reach Webster and do a right, making sure not to drop down onto the Freeway. At this point you're just a block from the finish, and should be way ahead of the AI who take a much longer route. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Burning Routes [BP2300] =============================================================================== This is the one event type where you are limited to using 1 specific car for each route. The reason for this is because each time you complete a cars route you will unlock a "special" version of the car, with a new paint job and slightly modified stats. The special cars don't have their own routes however. As with races, each Burning Route can start at any intersection but will only end at one of the 8 finish lines. You're given a time to beat and must get from start to finish within that time to win the event. Usually this limit will give you leeway to crash once or twice at most, and you'll need to boost as much as possible as well as take the shortest route you know. The difficulty of these events generally rises in the order the cars become available in the game but will also depend on how well you can handle some of the cars. The Carson Inferno Van is not going to go from A to B as easily as the Montgomery Hyperion, and although this is somewhat reflected in the targets you have to beat, it can still cause problems. The list below is ordered by the unlocking of cars in the game, but won't necessarily be the order you do them. I will generally only list shortcuts in my route if they are necessary to beat the target time, and the "Author Best" time represents my best attempt using the route I describe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Hunter Calvary Start - E. Crawford & Patterson End - The Wildcats Baseball Stadium Distance - 1.5 miles Target Time - 1:10 Route: Being the first Burning Route in the game it's also by far the easiest. Follow E. Crawford around the curve, head straight down the road as it turns into Webster, and head straight for the finish. Your only real obstacles are the traffic, so stay out of oncoming if it's messing you up. Even then crashing a couple of times won't cost you the event. Author Best - 38.52 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Hunter Mesquite Start - Lambert & 5th End - The Naval Yard Distance - 2.1 miles Target Time - 1:20 Route: Again this is a very easy route to complete, there's only one place you will need to make a turn at. Take Lambert South and follow it as it curves around to the West. You'll be looking to make the turn left at Hall Avenue, which is just before the Car Park. Make that turn and head straight to the finish. Author Best - 49.74 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Nakamura SI-7 Start - 9th & Sullivan End - The Waterfront Plaza Distance - 1.5 miles Target Time - 1:00 Route: Follow 9th Street East and then South as it becomes Glancey. Make sure to use oncoming to keep your boost running. The last turn will be left onto Andersen which puts you on a straight road to the finish! Author Best - 39.98 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Hunter Vegas Start - 7th & Franke End - The Wildcats Baseball Stadium Distance - 1.5 miles Target Time - 0:50 Route: Another simple route to follow. Take Franke South-East until it merges into 2nd street and head East. You'll need to make a right onto Webster, but be careful not to go underground on the Freeway. After that it's a 1 block dash to the finish line. Author Best - 36.13 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Krieger Pioneer Start - Hamilton & 9th End - The Naval Yard Distance - 2.5 miles Target Time - 1:25 Route: Take Hamilton South for over a mile. It will merge into Harber as it curves around to the West. At this point you can turn left on either Warren or Shepherd as both end at the South Bay Expressway. Turn right here and cruise down the Expressway until you hit the finish. Author Best - 1:02.07 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Nakamura Ikusa GT Start - 2nd & Glancey End - The Maplemount Country Club Distance - 2.2 Miles Target Time - 1:15 Route: You'll start out going West on 2nd. Take the slight right on to Franke and follow this North-West all the way until you can turn left on 7th Street. Take this for a few seconds and then do a right on Lambert before you reach the tunnel. Once on Lambert it's a drag race to the line so get boosting! Author Best - 54.48 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Kitano Hydros Custom Start - Hubbard & I-88 Section 3 entrance End - The Wildcats Baseball Stadium Distance - 2.2 miles Target Time - 1:05 Route: Take Hubbard South and make a left onto 2nd Street. Follow this all the way over to Webster and hang a right, again making sure not to end up driving down onto the Freeway. The only shortcut worth using is on the left before you take the 2nd Street turn, and simply straightens out the turn you would make, saving a second at most. Author Best - 50.57 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. Hunter Reliable Custom Start - Nelson & Uphill End - The Lone Stallion Ranch Distance - 3.3 miles Target Time - 1:35 Route: Drive South on Nelson and get up to full speed. Make a slight right to head down W. Lake Drive, and take the dirt track shortcut that appears straight ahead with about 1.9 miles left. This will put you out at the S. Mountain intersection. Take a right and follow the road around the curve, before taking the super jump off Rockridge Cliff. That will save you the most time, and put you down by the lake. Follow the road around to the right and up to the ranch for the finish! Author Best - 1:00.68 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Watson R-Turbo Roadster Start - King & Harber End - The Maplemount Country Club Distance - 2.2 miles Target Time - 1:15 Route: Head North on King from the start, you'll be looking to make a kind of sharp left on to Franke with about 1.5 miles left. The route is then identical to #6; do a left on 7th and then a right on Lambert to take you to the finish. If you want an easier turn off King, take the 3rd Street exit - it's a slightly longer route but probably a little safer too. Follow it straight to Lambert and again head straight for the finish. Author Best - 54.57 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10. Rossolini LM Classic Start - Lambert & 2nd End - The Lone Stallion Ranch Distance - 2.9 miles Target Time - 1:25 Route: Take Lambert South and continue on as it curves to the west. Then either take a left on Hall or S. Rouse until you reach S. Bay Expressway. Do a right there and then follow the road over the bridge. Make a very slight left on to S. Mountain and boost through the finish line. Author Best - 1:02.85 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Hunter Manhattan Start - Webster & Andersen End - The Naval Yard Distance - 4.6 miles Target Time - 1:20 Route: It will try to start you going West, but turn South on Webster right away. Follow it as it curves around and becomes Harber. Go past the Auto- Repair, stay on the left and look for a shortcut that will take you onto Manners. It's just after the entrance to the I-88 onramps. It should take you over 2 jumps. As you finish this shortcut there is another shorter one that will put you out on the South Bay Expressway. At this point you just need to drive straight to the finish. Author Best - 1:00.40 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12. Carson Fastback Start - Harber Street End - Lone Stallion Ranch Distance - 3.3 miles Target Time - 1:30 Route: Start going West on Harber. Use the 2 shortcuts mentioned above for the Hunter Manhattan to get you onto S. Bay Expressway. At this point it's just a very long drag race to the finish. Cross the bridge and make a slight left onto S. Mountain Drive and you'll be done. Just make sure to use the oncoming lanes to keep your boost running the whole time. Author Best - 1:10.18 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13. Carson Grand Marais Start - Root & Paradise End - The Wildcats Stadium Distance - 1.6 miles Target Time - 1:05 Route: It will start you facing East, but turn South on Paradise straight off the bat. With about 1 mile to go, do a slight left at Paradise Square so you head South-East on Franke. You'll end up going East on 2nd, and from there you just need to turn right on Webster and drive a block to the finish Author Best - 43.33 (with a crash) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14. Montgomery Hyperion Start - 3rd & Glancey End - The Country Club Distance - 2.3 miles Target Time - 1:15 Route: An easy route. Head North on Glancey, follow it around to the West as it turns into 9th, and turn right on Lambert when you reach the end of 9th. Lambert will turn into Newton and send you straight to the finish. Author Best - 53.03 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Marked Man [BP2400] =============================================================================== Marked Man events are a cross between a race and a Road Rage event. You have to get from point A to point B, but inbetween you'll be getting attacked by 3 (and later 4) aggressive and heavy black versions of the Hunter Citizen. They will do their best to stop you reaching your destination, and it's up to you to either outdrive them or simply go where they can't. There are 15 of these events in total, and as usual they can start at any intersection on the map, but will only end at one of the 8 compass point finish lines. This makes knowledge of the shortcuts to those finish lines ideal, because on the whole the AI cars will not follow you into shortcut areas (although sometimes they can spawn in them). There is no time limit on these events, so don't rush, especially in shortcuts where you shouldn't have to worry about being taken down. One thing that will be your saviour from time to time in these events is the ability to use an auto-repair to bring your car back to full "health". This means you can be taken down more times before the event ends and it can be the difference between victory or defeat. I will point them out in my routes if they are nearby, although obviously you can go out of your way to get to them if you think you need it, just be careful. Choice of car is important here. Pick something heavy like the Inferno Van and you will be a harder target to take down, but also slower moving which gives the AI more chances to try and get at you. They will T-Bone you at intersections and use the PIT manuever if you go slowly, and once you're fighting 4 of them off instead of 3, speed and good handling can be just as important. If you have it unlocked, I use the Carson Thunder Shadow, which has 10 in boost and 7 in strength. Enough speed to get to the finish quickly while having enough stength to survive on the way. The routes are listed here in no particular order: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Stampede Start: 3rd & Webster End: Lone Stallion Ranch Route: Start going South on Webster, it will curve West in Harber. Use the auto-repair on the left if you need it. With about 2.7 miles left look for a shortcut on your left that will cut onto Manners, it's just past the entrance to the I-88 onramps. As you finish this shortcut look for another on the left to take you onto the S. Bay Expressway. Hug the left wall as you exit this cut for yet another shortcut that takes you through the Naval Yard. It will put you out near another auto-repair so use again if needed. From here take the Expressway onto the bridge, and use the second jump in the middle to put you on the railroad. From here simply stay on it all the way to the finish! Alternate: For an even easier time of things, take the first two shortcuts mentioned, then look to make a right on Gabriel Avenue. From there you can get on the railroad and just cruise all the way to Lone Stallion Ranch from there as the AI cars shouldn't follow you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Road Rage [BP2500] =============================================================================== The Road Rage events are something that have appeared in the Burnout series since Burnout 3, and it has a lot of fans. It encourages you to do the most aggressive driving you can perform to take down as many AI cars as possible within a set time limit. In Paradise City you'll have 16 different Road Rages to attempt, although due to the open-world nature of the game you can go anywhere you want with them once they start. AI cars will constantly spawn around you wherever you go so if you have a favourite place for takedowns you can go there every time (if you have the time). The goals you need to achieve are not set per Road Rage, but based on the number of them that you have done. Your first event will only require you to get 3 takedowns, but your last will want 25! The base time limit will also rise as you progress further through the game, but interestingly now you can also gain an extra 5 seconds for every car you take out. In theory this means you could go on a single Road Rage forever, but in reality it just means you should never have to worry about the time limit. I never timed out in a single Road Rage, the biggest difficulty is probably ensuring you don't wreck your car too many times before you hit your target. The actual process of taking down cars is a little easy, they are much more inclined to swerve into walls and traffic with a sideswipe. They aren't particularly aggressive either, though they will take each other down. As with Marked Man, you can use the Auto-Repairs dotted around the city to bring your car back to full health, although you can only use each one once per Road Rage event. If you know you crash a lot, make sure you take your routes past these to avoid missing takedown targets. The car you choose to use will again make a big difference, not only in terms of how capable each is in taking down others, but because the game will pit you against relatively equal opponents. Basically, use a Burnout License car and you have to take on cars of that level. Use a Class B car and so will the AI. Use this to your advantage, because slower cars are easier targets, and using a slower car gives you more reaction time. Obviously an aggression car with a high strength will help a great deal, regardless of anything else. As I said, there are 16 events in total, but with no specific routes to take or specific goals to achieve, I'm just going to list what they're called and where they are. If anyone thinks I should add some Road Rage specific things here send me an e-mail! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name | Location ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

They can be accessed once you've won 4 events offline. As there are 64 different roads in the game, there are effectively 128 "events" to do. When you do them for the first time they will add to your percentage complete, and you can choose to do them whenever you want offline and online as long as you're Freeburning. They also have a few achievements tied to them and a couple of Carbon cars for completing all of them, so there's a good reason to beat them all. =============================================================================== Road Rules: Time [BP2610] =============================================================================== Time Road Rules are effectively the time trial mode of this game. Each of the 64 roads has a time set by the developers that you need to beat, and once you've beaten those you can beat your friends times too. To access them, you need to press up on the d-pad once or twice so it says best offline or online time, although you'll want to see offline times when you're trying to beat the developers. Once this is done, all you need to do to start is drive from one end of the road to the other as quickly as possible. In terms of car choice, faster is obviously better. If you can handle the fastest Speed cars like the PCPD special, use them because they will set the best times, especially on the shortest roads. On longer roads you may find it easier to use a fast stunt car like the Montgomery Hawker so you can recover from crashes more easily. Another must for the fastest times is getting the biggest run up you can from either end of the road. The clock starts counting once you turn on to the road so starting fast can only benefit you. Don't be afraid to crash at the end of a road either, you wanna be at full speed all the way to the finish and sometimes crashing is going to happen. Shortcuts are also important. Almost any shortcut that begins and ends on the same road will not screw up your times, and if they cut corners or help you avoid traffic they can save seconds of time. They aren't always practical, so there can be a lot of trial and error to work out the best route. Choosing which end of the road to start from goes with this, as it can be easier to start faster, or hit certain shortcuts. There are 64 roads to set times on, they are listed here along with the time you need to beat to "rule" the road offline: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Road Name | Time to Beat | Notes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st Street | 34.9 | Coming soon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Street | 45.7 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd Street | 38.4 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4th Street | 21.6 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5th Street | 29.8 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7th Street | 33.3 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9th Street | 35.6 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andersen Street | 15.5 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Angus Wharf | 41.8 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cannon Pass | 13.5 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Casey Pass | 26.1 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chubb Lane | 52.0 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.

With Showtime, you can effectively crash anywhere and any time you want when not doing an event. Just hold both LB and RB at the same time to turn your car into what amounts to a giant pinball. While in Showtime mode you can bounce your car around using the A button to "Ground Break". Press A while your car is touching the ground and you will be launched onwards. Your boost bar represents your ability to ground break: as long as you have boost you can do it, but run out and the show is over. To keep the bar filled you need to hit as many vehicles as you can. Each vehicle type is worth differing amounts, usually bigger is better. Buses also add to your multiplier, which is really the key to the highest scores, and is unfortunately somewhat random as to when they appear. Every 10 vehicles hit gives your boost bar a bonus, and hitting specified overhanging signs will give you $10,000 a time. You will also be rewarded for distanced travelled, $100 for every yard, which is then multiplied at the end along with the rest of your score. Because your boost bar is your lifebar, Aggression cars are the ones to go for as they have the biggest bars to fill. Just as useful is picking a large car; the more road you take up the more vehicles you're likely to hit. Also take advantage of the fact that once you start Showtime, you can go anywhere you can reach and it will still score you for the road you started on. This is great for roads that don't see much traffic, but are connected to the main roads like E. Crawford. I'll note any good examples in the "Notes" section of the table below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Road Name | Score to Beat | Notes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st Street | 700,000 | Coming Soon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Street | 700,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd Street | 700,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4th Street | 700,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5th Street | 700,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7th Street | 500,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9th Street | 700,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andersen Street | 700,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Angus Wharf | 1,500,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cannon Pass | 250,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Casey Pass | 250,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chubb Lane | 250,000 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.

There are 570 collectibles split into Super Jumps, Smashes and Billboards spread through the whole city, along with 35 Drive Thrus and 11 Car Parks. They're worth finding too; you'll get multiple achievements and cars for finding everything in the game, and learn a lot about the layout of Paradise City in the meantime. I've split the Discoveries first by type, and then by the 5 main areas of the city. Use the BP codes to more quickly find the Super Jumps in Downtown or the Smashes in White Mountain. Please note that with so many to find and describe the locations of, the ones you need may not be here to begin with, so be patient! =============================================================================== Discovery: Billboards [BP3100] =============================================================================== There are 120 Billboards spread throughout the city, with between 20 and 30 in each of the 5 areas. You can check how many you have in each area with the pause menu. The billboards have the Burnout logo on a firey background, and should be pretty obvious once you play. Once you've gone through a billboard it will always look like it's been smashed up, so use that to help you find new ones to break. =============================================================================== Billboards : Palm Bay Heights [BP3110] =============================================================================== 1. Location: E. Crawford Drive towards Sullivan How to Get: Drive West with the traffic. After you go past the construction site there will be a ramp on the right leading to the billboard Take it with some speed to crash through it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Location: Hudson Avenue Car Park How to Get: There are 3 ramps on the roof. Take the one facing South-East to break the billboard and land on the Freeway. 3. How to Get: Now take the North-West facing ramp with some speed to hit the billboard in the air on the other side of the road. 4. How to Get: Finally take the East facing ramp. Follow the road around and there will be another billboard sitting at the side of the Freeway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Location: 9th Street & Hamilton Avenue How to Get: Head East on 9th, and on the right directly after 9th and Hamilton intersect will be a smash leading into a hidden path. Shortly after will be a small jump with a billboard that you can't miss. 6. How to Get: Continue onwards and go up a ramp onto a high platform. Another billboard sits here. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Billboards : Downtown Paradise [BP3120] =============================================================================== 21. Location: Angus Wharf | How to Get: Head North on Angus Wharf, and look for the shortcut on the 22. right, opposite the Watt Street turn. Down here are 2 jumps that take you over containers, and each one has a billboard to crash through. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Billboards : Harbor Town [BP3130] =============================================================================== 51. =============================================================================== Billboards : White Mountain [BP3140] =============================================================================== 76. =============================================================================== Billboards : Silver Lake [BP3150] =============================================================================== 101. =============================================================================== Discovery: Smashes [BP3200] =============================================================================== In total there's a whopping 400 Smashes to find all over Paradise City, with anywhere from 50 to 90 in each area. You can check how many you have in each area with the pause menu. With there being so many, this is probably the hardest discoverable to find every one of. They are represented by multiple black and yellow chain link fences that say "Private Property". Once you've gone through a Smash, it will no longer have a full fence in front of it, to let you know you've earned it already. I have grouped some of the Smashes together because the methods to get them are identical. A lot of shortcuts have a smash at each end, so it's easier to list both together. My "How to Get" method is not the only way to reach each smash, so if you're unsure if you've got a particular one or not just follow my directions so you know for certain. =============================================================================== Smashes : Palm Bay Heights [BP3210] =============================================================================== 1. Location: Hudson Avenue Car Park How to Get: Simply enter the Car Park. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Location: Newton Drive/E. Crawford Drive | How to Get: Drive up the right side of the half loop of Newton Drive and 3. look right for a smash that takes you on a dirt road through a tunnel and out through another smash onto the boardwalk on E. Crawford. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Location: 9th Street & Hamilton Avenue | How to Get: Head East on 9th, and on the right directly after 9th and 5. Hamilton intersect will be a smash leading into a hidden path. Follow this path all the way to the end and another smash leads you out onto 9th & Paradise. 6. Location: 9th Street How to Get: There is another smash to take you on the path mentioned above. The smash sits halfway between Nakamura and Sullivan, on the right side of 9th if you drive East. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Location: Moore Avenue/9th Street & Sullivan Avenue | How to Get: These 2 smashes connect Moore to Sullivan. Face North-East at 8. the junction of 9th and Sullivan and you will see the first. Drive through the shortcut to hit the other. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Location: 9th Street/Railroad Tracks | How to Get: Drive West on 9th, and do a left onto the Railroad just before 12. you have to turn onto Lambert. The first smash is a little way down at the entrance to a tunnel. The second is at the exit of the same tunnel. Stay on the tracks for a long time, until you are forced to leave them by way of another smash. Do a quick 180 when you hit that smash and there will be another right in front of you. 13. Location: 7th Street | How to Get: These 2 smashes are actually on the road above Smash #10. Head 14. East on the 7th that puts you with same direction traffic. Next to the record store with the giant guitar are 2 smashes with a wall splitting them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Smashes : Downtown Paradise [BP3220] =============================================================================== 51. Location: E. Crawford Drive/Angus Wharf | How to Get: Drive East on Crawford, and as you reach the curve by the 54. Coastguard HQ you will see 3 possible smashes to hit. Take the one on the left to go past the lighthouse. You'll hit a 2nd soon after, and a 3rd after that before reaching some jumps. Finally a 4th smash will take you back onto Angus Wharf. 55. Location: E. Crawford Drive/Angus Wharf | How to Get: Instead of taking the leftmost smash above, take the middle 56. one instead. There's a 2nd smash part of the way through the shortcut, the other you should have already hit previously. 57. Location: E. Crawford Drive/Angus Wharf | How to Get: Finally, take the right of the 3 smashes available. This will 58. take you through a different shortcut, but atfer hitting a 2nd smash still dumps you out on Angus Wharf. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 59. Location: Angus Wharf/Watt Street | How to Get: Just south of the Auto-Repair on Angus Wharf and before you 60. reach Watt is a shortcut that connects the two roads, and has a Smash at each end between two rows of containers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 61. Location: E. Crawford Drive Junk Yard | How to Get: Situate your car as if it was leaving the Junk Yard on E. 62. Crawford heading South. In front of you should be a smash hiding a shortcut between rows of containers. At the other end of the shortcut is another smash and the Freeway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Smashes : Harbor Town [BP3230] =============================================================================== 131. =============================================================================== Smashes : White Mountain [BP3240] =============================================================================== 221. =============================================================================== Smashes : Silver Lake [BP3250] =============================================================================== 311. =============================================================================== Discovery: Super Jumps [BP3300] =============================================================================== In total there are 50 Super Jumps to find, 10 in each area. These jumps are marked by flashing yellow traffic cones, and some are the biggest jumps in the game and great for stunts. You can check how many you have in each area with the pause menu. =============================================================================== Super Jumps : Palm Bay Heights [BP3310] =============================================================================== 1. Location: E. Crawford Drive How to Get: Drive West along the beach. The jump is situated leading you into the construction site in the middle of the road. You don't need to jump into the site to make the jump, just don't crash. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Location: E. Crawford Drive How to Get: Continue on West from jump #1 and drop down onto the boardwalk under the billboard on the right. Take the first ramp there and land the jump. Can be done from either side but only counts for one jump. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Location: Railroad between Hamilton and Lambert How to Get: Turn off E. Crawford onto Hamilton and look for an entrance to the railroad tracks on the right. Head under the billboard and look for the thin ramp marked with traffic cones that will lead you onto the Freeway. Just drive up this ramp to make it count. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Location: I-88 Section 2 How to Get: Use Jump #3 to get on the Freeway. Head forward enough until you can get onto the opposite lanes of the Freeway and turn around. In front of you should be a small jump that will take you back over the Freeway again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Location: Paradise Avenue How to Get: At the North end of this road is a half raised bridge. Make the jump over the gap to complete. Simple. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Location: 7th Street & Paradise Avenue How to Get: Head west with the traffic on 7th. As you're about to head under Paradise, there will be a marked ramp in the middle of the 4 lanes. Take this jump onto or over Paradise. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Location: 7th Street & Root Avenue How to Get: This time, head west on 7th in *oncoming* traffic. As you're about to pass under Root Avenue there will again be a marked ramp in the middle of the 4 lanes of traffic. Jump onto or over Root to add this to your total. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. Location: 7th Street & Lambert Parkway How to Get: Drive west on 7th with the traffic, as you cross over Lambert there is a dirt ramp just to the right of the road marked with the usual flashing traffic cones. Make this jump over the pond to complete it. =============================================================================== Super Jumps : Downtown Paradise [BP3320] =============================================================================== 11. =============================================================================== Super Jumps : Harbor Town [BP3330] =============================================================================== 21. =============================================================================== Super Jumps : White Mountain [BP3340] =============================================================================== 31. =============================================================================== Super Jumps : Silver Lake [BP3350] =============================================================================== 41. =============================================================================== Drive Thrus [BP3400] =============================================================================== There are 4 types of Drive Thru that show up in Paradise, and each serves a different purpose. There are 35 of these Drive Thrus in total, spread all over the place. Find them all along with the Car Parks to get the "Explorer" achievement. =============================================================================== Drive Thrus : Junkyards [BP3410] =============================================================================== There are 5 Junkyards, 1 in each area of the city. Not only do they let you change your car, but when you turn on the game you will start at the last one you visited. They are here: 1. Downtown Paradise Location: E. Crawford Drive & Angus Wharf 2. Palm Bay Heights Location: Hamilton Avenue near Young Avenue 3. Harbor Town Location: Manners Avenue & S. Rouse Drive 4. Silver Lake Location: Nelson Way & Ross Drive 5. White Mountain Location: Chubb Lane =============================================================================== Drive Thrus : Paint Shops [BP3420] =============================================================================== There are also 5 Paint Shops in the game. Drive through one and instantly your car will get a shiny new paintjob, assuming it can be painted of course. They don't really serve any other purpose though. Either way, find them here: 1. Downtown Paradise Location: 7th Street & Webster Avenue 2. Palm Bay Heights Location: Hamilton Avenue & 5th Street 3. Harbor Town Location: Harber Street & Hamilton Avenue 4. Silver Lake Location: E. Lake Drive between Nelson Way & Rack Way 5. White Mountain Location: W. Lake Drive & Cannon Pass =============================================================================== Drive Thrus : Auto-Repairs [BP3430] =============================================================================== The 11 Auto-Repairs will prove very useful as you play through the game. They repair your car on the go in any event, which is invaluable in Road Rage and Marked Man. Repairing a car for the first time also lets you paint it and discovers its Burning Route if there is one. They can be found here: 1. E Crawford Drive & Hudson Avenue 2. Angus Wharf 3. Young Avenue 4. Hubbard Avenue & Lambert Parkway 5. Warren Avenue 6. Harber Street & Root Avenue 7. S. Bay Expressway & S. Rouse Drive 8. Schembri Pass & Chubb Lane 9. S. Rouse Drive near Rack Way 10. Nelson Way near W. Crawford Drive 11. W. Lake Drive & Chubb Lane =============================================================================== Drive Thrus : Gas Stations [BP3440] =============================================================================== There are 14 Gas Stations in total, and if you're passing by one in a Race or Burning Route, will give you a full boost bar that can save precious seconds. These can be hugely useful when racing online if the route takes you that way, so always keep an eye open for any in your path. Here's where to look: 1. E. Crawford Drive & Nakamura Avenue 2. Angus Wharf near 4th Street 3. Andersen Street near Root Avenue 4. Angus Wharf & Webster Avenue 5. Lambert Parkway & Harber Street 6. S. Bay Expressway near Gabriel Avenue 7. Hamilton Avenue & Young Avenue 8. Lambert Parkway & S. Rouse Drive 9. E. Lake Drive & Hubbard Avenue 10. E. Lake Drive & Rack Way 11. Nelson Way near Lewis Pass 12. Nelson Way & Uphill Drive 13. Chubb Lane near W. Lake Drive 14. S. Mountain Drive near Lucas Way. =============================================================================== Car Parks [BP3500] =============================================================================== There are 11 Car Parks spread around the Eastern half of Paradise City, the roof of each is usually host to ramps, Super Jumps and Smashes. Find all 11 to get the "Paid and Displayed" achievement. A couple of these will show up in the Freeburn Challenges too, and none of them are especially hard to find. In case you are having trouble though, here's where to find them: 1. Location: Hudson Avenue 2. Location: North end of Webster Avenue 3. Location: Angus Wharf near 4th Street 4. Location: Fry Avenue south of Paradise Square (looks like Times Square) 5. Location: 1st Street & Glancey Avenue 6. Location: Hamilton Avenue where Young Avenue merges 7. Location: Lambert Parkway & Hall Avenue 8. Location: Hall Avenue & Manners Avenue 9. Location: Manners Avenue & Shepherd Avenue 10. Location: Lambert Parkway & 5th Street 11. Location: Young Avenue between Franke Avenue & Paradise Avenue Make sure you go into each Car Park to officially "find" it in the game. =============================================================================== Online Mode [BP4000] =============================================================================== Bearing some similarities to the online mode of Test Drive Unlimited, the Online Mode in Burnout Paradise is as much a social thing as it is about competition. If you want to race competitively you can do that, and if you want to co-operate with others to beat challenges you can do that too. Of course the open world structure means you can do whatever you want too, it's really down to you. I will cover the main areas of the online game here. =============================================================================== Today's Best [BP4100] =============================================================================== Today's Best is something that will always appear in the top right hand corner of the screen whenever you Freeburn online. It tracks 9 different statistics for each player in the game and summarises who's ahead overall. There is an achievement for being ahead in 6 out of 9 categories in an 8 player game, so it is worth spending some time on, and it's pretty good for something to fill in any lulls in the action. The 9 categories tracked are: Drift: Unfortunately it's too easy to do donuts, which makes this easy to get a very high number on. Works in any car. Oncoming: The easiest place to do this is on the freeway as it does loop all around the city. You can go quite slowly so again it's far too easy to get a very high number without too much effort. Flatspin: I find these a lot of fun to do. E-brake and spin your car off any split ramp to rack up a big number. The ramps on the beach are my jump of choice. If you beat 832 degrees you're doing as well as me. Barrel Rolls: Usually this record gets tied due to the small numbers involved. 3 is my max, done using the massive ramp into the Quarry and the super jump from Read Lane onto the railroad. A good technique can make a bigger difference than a high speed, so take your time. Power Parking: Gets tied all the time due to the obvious max. 100% will be yours if you E-brake and 180 into a gap between two parked cars and line yourself up perfectly parallel to the curb. Gets easier with time. Airtime: This is *not* your best air from one jump, but the best total air from a series of jumps done in sequence. Over 20 seconds is possible using the series of ramps along the pier, beach and Angus Wharf areas. Make sure not to crash until the game records your total otherwise you lose everything. Best done in a stunt car for the easy boosting. Near Misses: Another record that is cheapened by the fact that you can simply run back and forth past parked cars to get huge totals. If you do it legitimately, over 20 is pretty good. Jump Distance: The best jump distances are going to be earned in 1 or 2 different places: the Quarry jump and the Read Lane jump. Over 200yds is possible in a fast car Burnouts: This is the one statistic tracked that requires you to be in a specific car type: Speed cars. Chain burnouts by constantly boosting and driving dangerously, oncoming traffic is a great help here. Note that if you crash it won't record your burnout, so stop boosting when your chain is high enough. =============================================================================== Online Road Rules [BP4200] =============================================================================== Doing Road Rules online is not that different from doing it offline. You are still able to beat the offline records as well as online, but when you're in an online game you can also set times and Showtime scores against those in the game with you, regardless of them being on your XBL friends list. These times are short-term, you won't see them once you leave the game unless you set a personal record, and the people you played with won't see them unless they're your XBL friends. If you're playing against strangers this can be a little worthless, but against friends it can be great to set times together in the same room. It's down to you to make whatever you want out of it. =============================================================================== Freeburn Challenges [BP4300] =============================================================================== The Freeburn Challenges make up the largest part of the social aspect to Burnout Paradise. These are collaborative challenges that require you to work with 1-7 other people to beat tasks set by the developers. There are 350 in total, 50 for each number of players between 2 and 8, as well as 4 achievements tied to their completion. The good news is that they can be a lot of fun when done with friends as the challenges can create a sense of camaraderie between players as you work to beat them. The bad news is that there are a lot of repeats, and you will find that you end up doing the same challenge 5 or 6 times with differing amounts of people. Also, all it takes is one idiot to make doing them impossible, which is just another reason to play with friends when you can. I shall list all 350 Challenges here, split by number of players, and I will include notes for the ones that may not be entirely self explanatory as there are some that are either vague or just not that easy. Please e-mail me if you think a challenges needs a note as things obvious to me aren't obvious to others, and vice-versa. =============================================================================== Freeburn Challenges: 2-Players [BP4310] =============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Challenge Name & No. | Challenge details and notes =============================================================================== 1. Go Crash! | Crash into each other. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Get Social | Meet inside the Wildcats Baseball Stadium. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Go Jump! | Get some air. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.

City Sights | Jump from the parking garage on the *east* side of | Angus Wharf to meet up on top of the parking garage on | the *west* side. | Note: Take the middle of the 3 available jumps with | speed to make it across. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 99. 1st Street Reverse| Jump over the 1st Street bridge while driving in | reverse. | Note: Use a fast car to get enough speed going. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 100.

Not an easy jump to make! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Achievements [BPACHV] =============================================================================== There are 50 achievements in the game that total up to 1000 gamerscore. Some can be earned offline and some have to be earned online; these are split into groups accordingly. =============================================================================== Offline Achievements [BPOFFL] =============================================================================== 1. Lookin' Good - 5 Points Repaired your first wrecked car How to get: drive through the nearest auto-repair and you're done. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Misdemeanor - 10 points 5 Billboards collected How to get: just explore, it shouldn't take long at all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Off the Beaten Path - 10 points 25 Smashes collected How to get: just like billboards, some quick exploration will rack these up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Parallel Park - 20 points Power Park achieved with a 100% rating How to get: E-brake your car and 180 into the space between two parked cars. 100% requires you to be lined up perfectly, which can take some practice but is easy to get the hang of. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Bottom of the Class - 20 points Got your D Class License How to get: win the grand sum of 2 single player events. Easy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Duckin' and Weavin' - 10 points Won a Marked man without being taken down How to get: As it sounds, best done early in the game when the AI cars are less aggressive. Note that you can crash yourself and still get this achievement in the same event. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Learning to Fly - 10 points Successfully landed 5 Superjumps How to get: Again very easy to get with some exploration. Look for the flashing yellow traffic cones. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. Spinnin' Around - 10 points Got your first 360 Flatspin How to get: Flatspin by E-braking your car off ramps sideways. Get a 360 at somewhere like the quarry, the Read Lane superjump or on Big Surf Beach. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Great Start - 10 points Won a race How to get: win a race offline. Any of the early races will be easily winnable as long as you don't get lost. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10. Underachiever - 30 points Got your C class license How to get: Having got the D license, win another 7 events. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Rampage! - 20 points Got a Takedown Rampage How to get: Similarly to previous Burnout games, score consecutive takedowns in a Road Rage event without crashing or going too long without a takedown. 5 is a Frenzy, and 10 will be the Rampage. Generally easier in a slower car because the other cars will be equally slow, which makes taking them down more straightforward. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12. Watt? - 10 points Time Road Rule beaten on Watt St How to get: Press up on the d-pad to enable Road Rules, and drive from one end of Watt Street to the other in under 5.8 seconds. Build up speed before you reach the road so you can blitz down it at maximum velocity. Use a stunt car with 4 or 5 in boost and you should have no problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13. Daredevil - 25 points Land a 2 barrel roll jump How to get: There are plenty of ramps where this can be done. The one leading into the Quarry is an easy option, as is the split ramp on Read Lane. Any light stunt car should be fine, speed isn't as important as good technique. Try for 3 or more if this seems easy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14. Millionaire's Club - 25 points Scored over 1,000,000 in Stunt Run How to get: sounds like a big number, but a large multiplier will make all the difference. I used the series of ramps that run along Big Surf Beach and East Crawford and into the back of Angus Wharf. Nail all of those jumps and you'll have multiple billboard and air time multipliers. Throw in some flatspins or a barrel roll and a x15 multiplier isn't hard to get with practice. Remember to hit every ramp in both directions to eke out every point. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 15. Perfect Rage - 5 points Got 10 Takedowns in Road Rage without wrecking How to get: As usual, easier in slower cars. Pick the heaviest aggression car you have to minimise your chances of crashing and to maximise your damage to other cars. Avoid any silly mistakes and take your time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16. Must Try Harder - 40 points Got your B Class License How to get: From your C class license, win another 15 events. This won't be enough events to force you into any variety you're not fond of, so getting this far should be a breeze. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17. It's Showtime - 10 points Showtime Road Rule beaten on East Crawford Drive How to get: Get in your biggest aggression car. Press up on the d-pad 3 times until it shows "Biggest Offline Crash". Hit both buffers at the same time to start showtime mode. The target is $1.5 million, one of the highest in the game, so hit every bus in sight while keeping both directions of traffic clogged up. Ultimately the buses make the biggest difference, but keep an eye on distance traveled as that can add a tidy sum to your overall score with a good multiplier. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18. Flying Colors - 50 points Got your A Class License How to get: Win an additional 26 events after earning your B license. Bearing in mind that event wins reset every license upgrade, you could in theory just redo your favourite events from the B license and you'd be most of the way there. If you haven't practiced some of your less favoured event types, now's the time to try them out as things only get harder. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19. Rising From the Ashes - 10 points Repaired your car at critical damage in a Road Rage event How to get: it's fairly easy to manufacture this one. Simply drive to an auto-repair, crash around it until you're at critical damage and repair yourself. You don't need to win the road rage or even get a single takedown. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20. Supercharged - 20 points Won 25 Burning Routes How to get: ...win 25 burning routes. This one actually requires some effort, and ultimately the best way to win is to learn the routes you take. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21. Paradise Won - 60 points Won your Burnout Driving License How to get: To get this far you'll have to have won 90 events total, and 40 since earning your A class license. By this point you'll need to be pretty good at some event types, and if you haven't done all the available Burning Routes now is a good time, as it will create less work for you getting the Burnout Elite license. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22. Explorer - 10 points Found all events How to get: Can be a little tricky. Use your map to drive to any intersection that doesn't have an event showing, and drive up and down the freeway in both directions. Note that you'll only discover events while in offline mode and not currently be doing an event. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 23. Speed King - 20 points Set a Time Road Rule on every road How to get: Press up on the D-Pad once to show best Offline time, and beat it for every road. In the faster cars almost all the targets can be beaten with minimal crashing and boosting. Use the map to check for the ones you're missing. You'll pick up a car for this too so it's a worthy achievement to get. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 24. The Show Must Go on - 20 points Got a x10 multiplier in Showtime How to get: x10 multiplier means 10 buses. 10 buses means sticking to the busier roads Downtown, or looking for parked ones such as the 3 on Chubb Lane. Due to the randomness of buses, this might take a few tries, but you can work on completing every Showtime at the same time too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 25. Car in a China Shop - 20 points You got 500 Takedowns (online and offline) How to get: This will be earned naturally through the course of the game, usually it will be down to big Road Rage scores. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 26. All Pimped Out - 10 points Won all Burning Routes How to get: won't be achievable until very late in the game; the last car with a Route is unlocked after winning 168 events! The earlier routes are usually easier, but now you have to do them all anyway. Just keep track of them as you go so none get forgotten. In total you'll have 35 to beat. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 27. Elite - 70 points Won your Burnout Elite license How to get: the number of event required will vary depending on how many burning routes you do before you get your Burnout License, as they don't reset after each new license like other events do. I had to do 93 events to go from Burnout to Elite, but it can be as high as 120 if you haven't done any Burning Routes. This achievement will probably make you wish there was a retry button if you didn't already. Earn it though and you get a shiny gold paint finish for your cars. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 28. Paid and Displayed - 20 points Found all Car Parks How to get: There are 11 to find, all in the eastern half of the map. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 29. Shopaholic - 10 points Found all Drive Thrus and Car Parks How to get: As well as the Car Parks, find all 35 Drive Thru locations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30. Flying High - 20 points Successfully land all superjumps How to get: Find and make all 50 jumps. Some are easy finds, and some are easy jumps, but not all of them will be. Explore the city in a fast car so you don't miss out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 31. Boosting Around the World - 25 points Got a 20x Boost Chain How to get: the hard way is to take a speed car into oncoming traffic on the freeway and survive. My way was to loop around the Country Club, drifting and going in oncoming as much as possible. Minimum traffic and easily maintained boost makes this a lot easier than it could be. Stick to your slowest speed car for an even easier time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 32. Crashin' All Over The World - 20 points Showtime Road Rule set on every road How to get: As it sounds, beat the target for each of the 64 roads. For the smaller and quieter roads, do your best to start as close to a main road as possible and Ground Break your way there. Most targets can be comfortably beaten once you get 2 or 3 buses, so keep your eyes peeled. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 33. Bustin' Out - 20 points Collected all Billboards How to get: There are 120 in total, general exploration will find many, look out for locations for the rest when this FAQ is complete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 34. Totally Smashed - 20 points Collected all smashes How to get: If 120 billboards weren't tough, 400 smashes definitely is. Exploring every nook and cranny of the map is a must, driving up and down every road in each direction will help a lot too. For those last few you can't find look for them in this FAQ when it's complete. =============================================================================== Online Achievements [BPONLN] =============================================================================== 35. Just for Pics - 10 points Made your first online rival How to get: Hop online and take down someone or be taken down by someone. Simple. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 36. Join the Party - 10 points Completed 1 online challenge How to get: Do it with friends or strangers, either way complete a single freeburn challenge. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 37. Happy Snapper - 10 points Sent 5 camera shots How to get: obviously needs an Xbox Live Vision Camera. Get taken down 5 times and this achievement is complete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 38. Party Crasher - 15 points Completed 25 online challenges How to get: Easier with friends but achievable with others too, complete any 25 of the 350 available challenges. Many of the early ones are as simple as boosting once or doing a drift so this achievement shouldn't take long. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 39. Online Racer - 10 points Completed an online race How to get: join someone elses or host one yourself, just finish any race online. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 40. Criterion Fever - 20 points Caught Criterion Fever How to get: A viral achievement that involves taking down someone who has the "Fever". In theory this would be people from Criterion playing online specifically for this purpose, but by the time you read this most regulars online will have it. Ask around and I'm sure you'll find someone to take down. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 41. Notorious - 20 points Sent 50 Camera Shots How to get: Another camera based achievement. Play online enough to win a few races and get taken down a few times and this will be yours. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 42. First Win - 10 points Won an 8 player online race How to get: Just like winning an offline race, but with real people. Get out ahead early and don't crash and you're golden. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 43. Burnout Skills - 30 points In 8 player online Freeburn led 6 of the Today's Best Scores How to get: See earlier in the guide for what scores you're looking to achieve and get ahead in as many as possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 44. Online Champion - 20 points Won 10 online races How to get: If you can win online once, you can do it 10 times. Do it with friends if you want to make life easier. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 45. Online and Kicking - 30 points Completed 20 online events How to get: By events they really mean races. Finish 20 races and it's done. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 46. Firestarter - 20 points Made 50 online rivals How to get: Take down or get taken down by 50 different people. Hop in and out of online games taking down a few people each time to earn this quickly and easily. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 47. Hotshots - 20 points Got 50 Snapshots in your Lineup How to get: Not as simple as it sounds. The lineup holds 20 snapshots in each of 4 different areas. 20 for race winners, 20 for race takedowns. 20 for Freeburn takedowns and 20 for those people who beat your Road Rules scores. Race winners and Freeburn takedowns are the easy ones, race enough and you'll pick up the 10 more that you need. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 48. Block Party - 35 points Completed 2 whole sections of online Challenges (excluding PDLC) How to get: This I found was easiest to do using the 2 and 3 player challenges, as obviously less things can go wrong. By far they are simpler when done with friends/spouses/siblings. Generally most don't require anything but a decent stunt car and the ability to find a dot on the map, but watch out for the odd tricky one like the barrel rolls through the fuselage at the airfield. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 49. Party Animal - 25 points Completed 250 online Challenges How to get: If you did Block Party first you'll have at least 100. Either way, as usual, this is ridiculously easier with like-minded friends, especially when about half of the challenges don't require much more than drifting or boosting or near misses in a specific area. If you don't have good friends, expect life to be a little harder. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 50. Criterion Elite - 20 points Got your Elite License, won every event, found all discoverables and beat every Road Rule How to get: The description sums things up nicely. Get your Burnout Elite license then do every Time and Showtime Road Rule for every road, find 120 billboards, 400 smashes, 50 superjumps, 35 drive thrus and 11 car parks. You also need the Block Party achievement, which is why this is under online achievements. Do all of this and you will have 100% completion and a platinum paint finish for your cars. =============================================================================== Music [BPSONG] =============================================================================== Criterion took an unusual step with the music in this game, by not only including their usual selection of licensed tracks but also throwing in the original in-house compositions used in Burnouts 1 through 3. As usual, you can turn any songs off you don't want to hear, or have them only play while doing Events or in Freeburn. There are a total of 70 in-game tracks, as well as a selection of classical music that will play if you let the game idle. The in-game music is as follows: Song Title Artist ---------- ------ Us V. Them LCD Soundsystem Stop! Jane's Addiction My Curse Killswitch Engage Stand And Deliver Adam and the Ants Would?

You can use music on the HDD, on compatible mp3 players or stream it from a Windows Media Center PC. Personally I'm a fan of most of the music in the game but it's nice to have the option for some variety. =============================================================================== Frequently Asked Questions [BPWHAT] =============================================================================== Q. Where is X road? A. Hit the back button to bring up the map, and choose to view Road Rules events. Every road will be labelled fairly clearly. Q. Why can't I retry/warp to events/pick my car whenever I want? A. Criterion wanted to create a seamless world that took you out of the game as little as possible. Although they achieved that pretty well it's not a popular decision. It's not likely to get changed so either suck it up or move on. Q. Why are some street signs green/red/silver/gold? A. They will be green when driving around normally. If you view a best offline time or showtime score they will be red if you've not set a score, silver if you've set one or the other, and gold if you have both. View a best online time and they will be red if you're being beaten, silver if you have one online record and gold if you have both. Q. Hey hey you you how do I turn off this damned song? A. Pause the game, press RB to get to the "Under The Hood" menu and select EA Trax. Find the song you're after and press right on the D-Pad until it says "Don't Play". Q. Can I customise my car? A. No, unless you mean different paint jobs. There's enough variety in the 80 cars that you should be able to find one that suits every task, and as DJ Atomika says, you can always customise your friends car by taking them down into a wall. Q. Is there any offline multiplayer? A. Again no, there's no split-screen options here. Criterion wanted the game to run at 60fps at all times and a split-screen option would've compromised that. Also an unpopular choice with some people it seems, and also not very likely at all that it will show up in this game in the future. Q. Will there be Downloadable Content? A. Yes. Criterion haven't confirmed what it is yet, but sensible bets would be more challenges, more cars, perhaps more game modes and maybe additional areas to drive in. Of course, being published by EA, it could just be 400 points to unlock all the cars for you... =============================================================================== Version History [BPVERS] =============================================================================== v0.1: Everything you see here.

Firstly my biggest thanks goes to my wife, not only for being the "Best Wife Ever"(tm) but also for helping me beat Freeburn Challenges and find those crafty Smashes. Thanks also to Jarle, Salty, Chuck, Scott, Dan, Jesse and anyone else that did the Freeburn Challenges with me, I'll try not to beat the next Burnout so quickly. ;) Thanks to Ange Alexiel for the PAL car codes, much appreciated. Of course Criterion get thanks for creating the excellent Burnout series. I've poured hundreds upon hundreds of hours into all of the games and have yet to be disappointed. Here's to Burnout 6! ------- Copyright 2008 Adam Stevens.
