Shock and Awe

[mattbrine1977]

This should be a gold trophy and this video doesn't show how hard it really is; why is your 10th wave eaiser than my usual 3rd or 4th??

The green countdown mines are the key; they contribute greatly towards the stats needed for the next nuke to appear, the minefield they create are also great for leaving behind to destroy enemy waves.

Focus on destroy enough enemies to get the next nuke as fast as possible before it accelerates too much, getting bombs & maxing out your Gold Melter to 200%.

[6466BowlsofRamen]

Yeaaah!! I did it!! what awesome relief! thanks for your advice. I want to scream ^_^

[Pesico]

@6466BowlsofRamen Congrats. I wanted to scream when I did it to:D

[Dreadnought190]

Stupid red triangles!! >=( They can ruin everything. But I'm glad I got this crazy trophy though =).

[Pesico]

@Dreadnought190 Don't get me started about those. They were really annoying, but so great when you actually get the trophy:)

[mobster100]

How do you know once a nuke has landed?

[Pesico]

@mobster100 You just have to spot them. The game doesn't tell you in anyway when they have landed. In case you don't know what a nuke looks like, it's the thing I boost through at around 1:09.

[mobster100]

@Pesico yeah i know what they are it's just if they land and i don't see them it's less efficient and more likely for me to die lol.

[metalbreaker67]

You sound like a Norwegian..

[Pesico]

It's a very good reason for that;)

[metalbreaker67]

stemmer det ;)

[Omegaweapon737]

Took him years of training no doubt.

[maskdarkien]

WOOT, finally got this trophy a few minutes ago, tryed like hundred of times lol. but funny thing is that when i got the trohpy i was so encouraged that destroyed another 5 extra nukes. I only have late boomer left now to have 100% on this games trophies.

[allgood925]

some one can help me add me to my id name nels925. need a the help i can get only late moober and shock and wave trophy left 82% done

[xianos707]

someone didnt know wtf they were doing when they made late boomer, fkcn stoners

[MrGilly93]

a sssoooo hard

[RaZaShARpZ2]

Finally got this. Just have Late Boomer to go, and god that one is twice as hard.

[fakiu]

Not really, I think this is the hardest trophy, since it requieres skill and LOTs of time, and late bomber is all about luck.

;)

[vovautube]

I think that the hardest trophy in SSHD is Late Boomer!!! It should be gold!

[AssassinVenice]

@vovautube

It should be Platinum....XD

[vovautube]

@AssassinVenice Agreed! :D

[hickslive]

the last wave will be insane! pointles even shooting,only thing i could do was boost then bomb then bomb again then boost!,got me 10th nuke and had like 10 bombs left,i dont think there is a "tactic" apart from save ur bombs and get ur green and red gun things to max asap,

[hickslive]

i finally got it today! got 14 nukes in total with the extra bombs i had,finaly got late bomer before to!

[vivalaresistanc]

The Red Triangles always get me. Any advice?

[hickslive]

i no yeah there the things that get me ever damn time!! grrr

[hickslive]

they tend to follow you,so lead them away and u can make them all get close together like one big line,with ur red beam thing u can blow them all up as there following u

[catman998877]

Ha I finally got this, but honestly I didn't really use your method. If you wait for the last 3 nukes to start using your bombs chances are you'll die before then. Boosting helps but half the time it only takes you to more trouble. It really depends on what wave attacks you for you to use your bomb. If your dealing with a meteor strike, then do not hesitate to use your bombs. Don't wait for the last 3 nukes, but use them wisely at the same time.

[catman998877]

No I mean like, how do you get the nukes to appear?

[Pesico]

You have to kill a certain amount of enemies, but I don't know who. So just kill them as fast as possible.

[catman998877]

What is wrong with this game? Why are the easy challenges worth gold trophy but the hard as shit challenges are silver? Seriously I cant do this... I can BARLEY make it to nuke 6 and from there my screen is flooded with rocks and snakes and stuff. One question if you may answer please. How exactly do you get the nukes to fall down?

[Pesico]

You either shoot, bomb or boost through them.

[Preacha1111]

I'm think I'm the only idiot who has this game and does not know what the nukes are

[Pesico]

It's the towers that blow up everything (except you) on the planet when you destroy them.

[Preacha1111]

thx buddy

[regeface]

how long does this trophy take to get?

[Pesico]

It took me several hours of trying and failing.

[bboykomic]

nice vid i havent tried for this trophie yet but i will now. if you want to add me feel free anyone. shiftz.

[flythaknot]

always die at the 8th nuke :@

[czKIRA]

how long does it take then next nuke appears?

[Pesico]

I think it varies. You have to kill a certain amount of enemies I think.

[TheKillerBadBoy]

jeg liker dialekten din :-P

[RyanEfc94]

finally dun this trophy !! this vid really helps xD

[RyanEfc94]

after about 5 or 6 wen all the red triangles come its impossible !! is this when you start using all your bombs ?

[Pesico]

You should have around 20 bombs when you have taken 7 of them. But try boosting into the middle of the red triangles and use a bomb in the middle.

[RyanEfc94]

ok ill try that thanks.

[Pesico]

Just make sure you deploy the bomb before you have stopped boosting.

[RyanEfc94]

This Method Works !!! i got to 9th nuke first try after using this.

[RyanEfc94]

This is 2 hard lol xD

[nhonpham]

im trying this right now.

[frollard]

Pesico, good job!

I've been playing for evar, and this is my last trophy. I routinely score 18-20 mil; but I never seem to get it. Always have about 10 bombs left when I die, maybe its time for me to start bombing more towards the end - see you on the forums!

[rodrigopacheco12]

finally got it!!!this vid helped me, bcz it set a score that i had to reach, i knew where i had to get in order to destry 10 nukes, thanks

[shutout59]

wow by 5 nukes my screen looks like his i dont know what i did wrong

[Pesico]

You're not doing anything wrong. The enemies are a bit random. I tried this a lot of times, and very often, the enemies were more difficult compared to the run I have in the video.

[shutout59]

ok cool. I really want this trophy lol... i got late boomer and shock and awe yesterday. Just this, the shield one and 10X multiplier to go. Im kind of doubting i can get the shield one

[Pesico]

Since you've done 10x multiplier, I see no reason why you can't do the shield one. 10x multiplier is harder than the shield one.

[shutout59]

its because shields protect you to get a multiplier which i think is easier than not getting hit at all. i try but it takes me so long to find shield tokens(i usually only get like one per planet) and i always get my shield taken after like 2 or 3 planets

[astroman12349384]

Is anyway you can make the nukes come faster? I just killed 9 and beat your score record. Still didn't get the f...ing trophy only for one nuke. AAAAAAAAAARGHHHH Is so frustrating.

[rodrigopacheco12]

try focusin on the greens mines, always aim to get them(after u get one, go to the other side of the planet to finish the other one, and so on)

[shutout59]

i mean i got done late boomer and brothers in arms lol shock and awe i wish

[astroman12349384]

There are three different runs, one starts with ice, one with gold and the las with rocks. I found Gold to be the easiest.

[Notrub24]

Whats yur psn

[john0692]

I think by time I get to the 8th nuke I always get the meteor shower. Theres no room to do anything and not even bombs really help. Oh well. better keep trying.

[10123HOOD]

kill whst as fast as possible

[eminem4436]

bull crap......thats what I look like when trying this

[Gtaguy95]

greetings to Norway

[GamerBlob]

i just done late boomber now all i need to do is this and brothers in arms then iv got 100%

Psn - Shark__Face

[hunter294]

wow i just done shawk and awe and i need late boomer and brothers in arms too lol!

[Gameplayer112]

damn ur lucky, shock and awe is the hardest to me. l just need that & brothers in arms

[shutout59]

brothers in arms is sweet. alls you have to do is beat 4 planets on normal arcade by youself to unlock segomo multiplayer.. and then you just chill their with 2 controllers as like 4 big asteroids just move around. It gave me 18% on my trophy completion which got me stoked because the silver from late boomer only gave me 3%

[rodrigopacheco12]

i guess brother in arms was rlly bad developed....

first they ask u do download an expansion...fair enough.

Then they expect u to hav a second controller...they r starting to pushin it....then they also expect u to hav a friend to play with u....i guess u can do it alone but still....and then its gold, while late boomer and shock and awe are silver...WTF???

[shutout59]

there are more annoying things... like hosting a 4 hour game of warhawk for a gold trophy or whatever. finally got all trophies! When i got this one i thought i was only on like tower 7 but then i got it and kept going for a few more minutes

[rodrigopacheco12]

lol i did that warhawk trophy, its also stupid bcz, its demainding that u kep ur internet connection turned on for 4 hours straight( check the bill after), while u sit and do shit, u cant even play it, and wat if the internet connection stops all of the sudden?thats bullshit

[frollard]

aside - the warhawk one really isnt that bad - if you are using dialup, you shouldnt be using warhawk. There shouldnt be a bill for 'leaving a server running for 4 hours' if you have any high-speed internet ...across the world... I leave a dedicated server on regularly - its the right thing to do.

[rodrigopacheco12]

still, they shouldnt do stuff like that

[frollard]

At what cost? really I think they should do more stuff like that - It's an accomplishment to DONATE some cpu time - leave it on overnight.

[chiii22]

lol same here

Psn- pliskinatorex

[PaiPaiMaster]

You trigger the nukes by destroying the green mines with the count downs. The more nukes you destroy, the more sequences of green mines you need to destroy to trigger a nuke spawn.

I'm terrible at this. I can only get to 5 nukes before it gets too crazy for me.

[PSMako]

i dont think thats true, cos when i got the 7 minutes on endless trophy i kept i red circle ship alive and killed like 30 of those green countdowns without 1 nuke coming. this is also a good tactic as i got like 50 bombs, but the mode had speeded up sooo much it was impossible

[Feldoln666]

I always get screwed when those annoying red triangles come along. they spread out in every direction, and i end using all my bombs to save my self.

my personal best so far is 7 nukes only.

[ziz66]

every minute or so that i counted so long as u kill enemies a nuke appears hope this helps

[livir001]

does the nuke appear when it says "accelerating"?

[Pesico]

No, that just means the game is speeding up, which make it more difficult. Thats why you should try to kill enemies as fast as possible.

[livir001]

are you going to do brothers in arms?

[Pesico]

Yeah, I will post it tomorrow evening europetime.

[livir001]

cool, thanks =P

[Brenf86]

cheers, so roughly how long does it take to get this trophy.

[Brenf86]

Whats the technique to getting the nukes to appear or isit just random?.

[Pesico]

Killing certain enemies, but not sure which ones and the enemywaves are random so it's hard to tell. Just kill everything as fast as possible.

[livir001]

is mgs4 going to be trophy patched?

[Pesico]

No news on that yet I'm afraid.

[livir001]

geez, seems like i got the big boss emblem for nothing!

[YzakGundam]

You got to be Norwegian! So am I!

[Pesico]

I am. Will try to make it less obvious:p

[DECA555]

way to start at 7....not helpful

[Pesico]

Try to listen to my tips. Show the whole thing both takes a lot of time and second of all, the enemies are random.

[DECA555]

yea your right. Im just frustrated thats all. My apologies.

[Pesico]

No need to apoligise mate:) Shock and Awe doesn't only need skill, but it also needs a lot of patience and luck. I was pretty frustrated at times getting this trophy as its really hard.

[DECA555]

all i gotta say is thank you!

im happy to announce i have earned the shock and awe trophy and i owe probably 80% of that to this video. Not for the tips so much, but the inspiration.

about 10 mins after posting my apology, i received this trophy.

Thanks and cheers

[livir001]

does anyone know a list of games likely to be trophy patched?

[ChipofosheezyYo]

So how exactly do you get the Nukes to drop? I've heard 2 different ways but neither really helped me.

[Pesico]

I don't know for sure, but I think it has something to do with some of the enemies on each wave. But I don't know which ones on which waves.

[ChipofosheezyYo]

Oh, alrighty then. Thanks.

[tinheadtalbot]

thnx for the guide m8 keep em cummin for future games

[SmilerAl1]

Thanks man your quick little tips on the side made me complete Shock & Awe in one go! Thanks again :D

[Kankki1]

Great as always. Keep it up! What are you going to make when you've got all of the SSHD trophies covered? Retail games? :)

[Pesico]

I will continue to make Trophyvideos for both retail and PSN games. I can't do it for every game, but I buy a lot of PS3 games, so I gonna cover a lot of games.

[Kankki1]

Great! I forgot to read on your profile... :P How ignorant of me :) So Resistance 2 and Drakes Fortune? :D

[Pesico]

Yeah, those are the games I can confirm at the moment. Uncharted will get trophysupport sometime in the forseable future as they say. I will always use the Bulletins to inform of games I will make videos on. Alltough I've only said Resistance 2 and Uncharted for, doesn't mean I will make videos for other games before that. We just have to see what kind of games that receive trophysupport.

[Kankki1]

I hope R&C:TOD will get trophy support patched into it :)

[Pesico]

Insomniac has said that both R&C: TOD and Resistance: FOM won't get trophysupport as it would mean they would have to take people away from the Resistance 2 development. I wanted trophies for both of those games, but don't think it will happen.

[Kankki1]

Aww.. that's too bad :(

Well I'm gonna get the game anyway when I get a PS3, it looks awesome! :)

[Pesico]

I know. Hoped they would get trophysupport, but R&C is still a great game:)

[punjabiNigs]

can you make a video from biginnig to last plz

[Pesico]

The enemies are random so I don't think I will do that.
