bangbang023 Veteran Posted May 16, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 16, 2007 I only suck at the races that take you off the streets and onto the off road areas. I'm stuck on the 4th one right now. It's frustrating, to say the least. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588556616 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's frustrating, to say the least. Do co-op and get your buddy to shoot out all their tires. Works like a charm.

stanley porkchop Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Looks like Crackdown will be getting more playtime because of all this beta business. I'm at 499 agility orbs and 269 hidden. I come across probably 5-6 hidden orbs every time I play the game (without looking, just jumping around and whatever). I've had 499 agility orbs for days, and it's driving me crazy. I checked that globe place in the Shai Gen area. No luck :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588557323 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenut Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) Double check the round buildings in Shai Gen. Not just the Fang-Yin globe but also the Oakley building with a long walkway in front in the top right of Shai Gen, when looking at the map. Also check the large Rzeznik parking structure in Shai Gen with a hole in the middle, it looks like a donut on the map. If you are at a complete loss for the agility orbs, you can try http://www.candiedskull.com/crackdown/images/agilitymap.jpg If you are stuck on hidden orbs, head on over to http://picasaweb.google.com/frodekn/HiddenOrbs You can also check out http://www.candiedskull.com/crackdown/ for lots of info. If you see me on, I'd probably be willing to help with some achievements if I'm not busy.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 17, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 17, 2007 I only suck at the races that take you off the streets and onto the off road areas. I'm stuck on the 4th one right now. It's frustrating, to say the least. Actually same here, out of the four I have concentrated on, I have been able to get 1st place if they are on the streets. Off the streets, and I have yet to even finish a race I do so bad. And is Lu Mugre the one where it is on the streets but super short turns and curves? If it is, I will never complete that one without doing one of the other suggested methods.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted May 17, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 17, 2007 Bah, I now have 497 of the 500 agility orbs. This is going to drive me nuts lol.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 17, 2007 Veteran Share Posted May 17, 2007 Bah, I now have 497 of the 500 agility orbs. This is going to drive me nuts lol. I cannot even imagine how nuts they would make me, I have 470 now after playing for about 30 minutes before, and I am already so damn frustrated and completely lost. Of that 30 minutes, 27 were spent just jumping from roof to roof through all three towns listening for the sound. I absolutely refuse to use a guide on the Agility Orbs since I got this far on my own (Hidden Orbs is another story), so to be honest, I will never get all 500. It would be a miracle if I do. Kudos to anyone who even has 490 if you did it on your own. I consider that the biggest achievement of them all.

Rogue` Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I did the Agility Orbs without a map....but the thing I did was to stick to an Area until I had all the Orbs from that area....like there are 212 in Los Muertos, 155 in the Volk area, 128 in Shei Gen and 5 in The Keep....although I did have to start a new game to be able to do that (I had 499 the 1st attempt and after a few days of looking I gave in)...I just finished getting the Hidden Orbs, but I went through a map and screenshots to get them :p All I need to do now is the Stunt Markers :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588558700 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I did it myself. After reading this information, it would be great if there was some kind of indication of exactly how many of the orbs you had in each area. I guess that would take out most of what makes it so hard to do it without any kind of guide though wouldn't it? :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588558948 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As me and friend were hunting around for Hidden Orbs we were saying it would of been better to have some sub achievements (not with gamerscore but in the achievements menu in the game itself) which indicated how many orbs in which area u had found....then at least ud know which area to look in :p Nevertheless, keep looking guys, they're out there somewhere.....don't forget though, they aren't always up high ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588558961 Share on other sites More sharing options...

5Forty Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 When I tried to reset the gangs it displayed a message along the lines of "mission progress will be lost if you continue" does this mean I will lose my ratings, orbs etc and have to start again?, as Im trying to do Confiscator achievement and need to find some gang cars Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588563586 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glorious Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 It is on the oil rig, you should try save & quit then spawn at the nearest Volk supply point and try again. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/540898-definitive-crackdown-thread/page/11/#findComment-588568815 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambrentnall Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 ok so i only got this game for halo3 last friday, after playing halo 3 pritty much non stop while iv been in untill last nite i havent even tried crackdown. i picked it up last night and thought id try it and it realy is a good game. you dont need superman or spider man Crackdown is everything in one. first thing i did was level up my agility to level 3 with the orbs and then leveled up my strenth. theres no better feeling than jumping from rooftop to rooftop then going to the ground level and kicking some gangs in :D :D :D. i dont think iv had this much fun in a game in a while!!
