I'll be waiting in the stadium... see you all there??

Had some good games last night. I'd forgotten how fun the cars are to drive. Just being able to do random shit and stunts while you're waiting for people to finish challenges makes it a lot more entertaining. Whereas with the bikes, while they are just fun to ride, are lacking in the fact you can't do those things. I had a great time just launching my car at the hangar in the airfield, with the wreck flying straight up in the air, twisting and rolling, while people watched from below.
I'm down to just 3 challenges left to do now. So 487 of 490 done. I've never found any of them frustrating or annoying either. It's easy to find a group of people who are just laid back and interested in having fun as opposed to fully serious and agro about getting stuff done. It's such a great game for having a relaxing time throwing a piece of metal around a city.

got all of 'em, thanks to anyone who might've contributed (send me your psn id so i can friend you).
^for me it was just a matter of getting all 8 people to actually follow through with a challenge. Lots of clueless people online it seems...

pluck my tasty grapes
I have the hardest time trying to get the red team on road rage (everytime I try to change from blue to red the game starts, and very few people seem to play it) and I still need 7 Freeburn Challenges (aka not the timed ones) as well as the 5 bike ones. I also need that smugshot one but until LBP hits retail I'm not buying a PS eye yet so my platinum will have to wait...

The hardest challenge in the PS3 version of the game was "win a Marked Man with the F1 Racer". Not a trophy but still hard.Mar_ said:
Dizzan said:Too much time on your hands
I'm jealous. I wish I had the spare time to put that much into a game.
How many hours do you think you put into it (each time)?
Heh, well if I can do it, anyone can. Full time job, married, etc. I very rarely play on weekdays and mostly just play on weekends. Just when I do get to play I play for long periods of time.
I'm way over 300 hours now. I lost 40 hours in a patch for some reason. Have 280 in cars, 60 in bikes or something. Getting all the challenges done is certainly the hardest part of the game.
God, I shouldn't buy this game for a third time (PS3 BD, 360 version, PSN) but I'm seriously considering it. Trophies and the desire to beat it yet again has me tempted. And with all the games I'll be playing this fall... lol Gears 2... I'd never get much of a chance to play it anytime soon. :/
I forgot to mention. Some guy showed me his ass in Burnout last night. I really wasn't expecting it (obviously). But I took him down and there popped up a picture of a dude standing there with his pants down. I thought, maybe it's just a picture he's put in front of the webcam? I take him out again later on, and nope, it's the same guy but sitting in his chair this time.

I think I've seen the other side of that on the PS3 version, but I didn't even feel like making sure I was right. D:
In other news, I just got my Burnout License trophy, now I just need to take care of the online trophies I have left (5 bike challenges, 10 timed challenges, and one timed challenge for cars). Woo!

Arrrgggghhh.... I've got all the jumps and billboards done but I'm missing just one or two smashes in each area.
I really don't want to have to try and follow a map one by one, I'd end up not playing the game again. Are there some ones that pretty much everyone seems to miss? I found one on top of a building (across from a car park)... are there any more like that?

I don't know if something like this exists for the xbox.

I read about some funny things with the sound in previous pages of this thread. Maybe try reading back a bit. But have you tried going through the sound options in the game itself? I think there's a setting you need to change in there because they changed how it mixes.

The CBD area seems like a pretty common place to miss stuff. You rarely spend time there and there's assloads of stuff. My last smash was around that area. I ended up having to go round every street, every block, slowly, and checking out every building. When I finally spotted it I was like "you cunt".

Damn, no, 360 version. Doesn't seem to be anything like that out there.maxax said:

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
FUCK I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!
Five years ago, everyone had a USB Webcam except for me... I've been asking everyone I know if they could borrow me it but noooooo, apparently every single one's "sold/given it away".
Worst trophy ever. I'll just have to pay 50 bucks or whatever for the PS Eye.

I searched but couldn't find anything. Everything else (ie other games, xmb) is fine, but Burnout (both PSN full and demo) refuses to play any sounds. I even reset my system settings but no go. I'd like to play this but never without sound. If anyone's also come across this and solved it, let me know.

Ok, I've finished off the smashes at the lake and mountains. 1 left in each of the other areas.
I'm going to take a look at the map and see if I can find the ones on their own.

Upload your save game to the Burnout EA site. It will give you a neat map with only what you are missing.

First thing I found on Google and unfortunately, nothing was checked except the two 'Linear PCM's that I listed previously (which are also non-removable). I'm redownloading the PSN game but I don't remember there being a selection for that in the options menu. I'm looking at the demo right now (got it off Dead Space) and I see volume, usb camera, and motion sensor selections, but nothing about sound mixing. Thanks for the help though.

Got all the smashes.
The last one was on a road out of the quarry that I didn't even know was there.

I wonder if they'll finally allow the two online cars in offline?

So I was itchy for something new to play after like two or three solid weeks of Rock Band 2 and I was about to go blow some money on some used crap and on a whim I threw in Burnout Paradise again and, wow. Thank you for saving me money with your awesomeness. I played like two hours on the bikes, which handle AMAZINGLY, like seriously I could just ride those for hours. It sucks a bit that you only get time challenges with them, at least at the outset I guess, but seriously, riding them is so fun, the sound is SO FUCKING GREAT for them, that I really don't mind.
Then I went back to the cars and wow, so many more events than I remembered.
What a great, fantastic, evergreen game.
If anyone has this and is suddenly struck with the urge to buy some old game used just for something new to do, pop in Burnout Paradise again, for a larf. It just might save you some dough.

Its probably worth noting that it is important to save the game the way its described at the website:Angst said:
I tried it with my autosave file at first and it didn't work. Maybe thats your problem, too.
Plus, I didn't work with Opera either. I had to use the IE.
Welp I just decided to buy Burnout off of the PSN. I had to do it, the whore in me wanted to beat it again and get some trophies in the process. And while I know we haven't played in a while I'd still like to get in some games with a few of the guys again once we're all brought together by some free DLC in the future.
