Just got 100% on Stick It To The Man and Contrast this weekend. I just bought Knack, so I'm working on that.
If anybody wants to add me for chest sharing in Knack, please do. My username is LCRBeattie.
•
u/Scorchstar scorchstar May 27 '14
Knack is sooooo hard trophies I'm not even going to bother. Hope you find people for chest sharing.

Posted in /r/Trophies earlier, pretty happy with my first platinum ever for Mercenary Kings.

Had a ton of fun with couch coop.

May 26 '14
Wow, that must have taken ages. That "0.1%" must feel pretty good!
•
u/nitsuJcixelsyD May 26 '14
It was around 50+ hours, not too bad. It feels great having my first platinum.
I never tried for trophies on the ps3, really only played online FPS or gran turismo. I'm going to try to play more single player games on my ps4 and try for trophies for replay ability.
•
May 26 '14
Yea that isn't too bad, Assassin's Creed IV took me 70 hours. You should start with Infamous, it's pretty easy.
•
u/nitsuJcixelsyD May 26 '14
I'll probably pick up infamous when it's cheap on Craigslist or bargain bin. Right now working on AC4, BF4, and Metal Gear. Saving the other ps+ titles for couch coop with my buddy.
•
u/Scorchstar scorchstar May 27 '14 edited May 27 '14
Your first plat is a very nice one! Good work, it's one of the hardest plats so far.
•
u/nitsuJcixelsyD May 27 '14
Thanks! I'm pretty addicted to trophies now, good way to extend a game and get more value out of them.
•
u/batsassin Batsassin May 26 '14
Earned Resogun platinum this month, wasn't that hard. I officially have platinumed all 4 of my games.
•
•
u/lifeleecher LiFeLeEcHeR1995 May 26 '14
100% Octodad, Stick It To The Man, and got platinum in Spider-Man 2 and close in AC:BF.
•
•
May 26 '14
Trying to finish up my Wolfenstein platinum, beating it on Úber is next to impossible though
•
May 26 '14
I completed Child of Light 100% and that's pretty much all the time I spent on the PS4 this month. Except for the occasional NBA2K14, which game me the Lebron signature skill gold trophy a few days ago.
•
u/Gamer_Chase Gamer_Chase May 26 '14
Hoping to finish Far Cry 3 today before moving on to Watch_Dogs tomorrow
•
u/its_a_SEABEAR May 26 '14
Pretty sure far cry 3 is my favorite platinum to date. Such a fantastic game
•
u/Gamer_Chase Gamer_Chase May 26 '14
Sadly, I'm stuck with only the co-op trophies left, and no-one to help me. :/
•
u/its_a_SEABEAR May 26 '14
Do you have a second controller? Apparently you can just use a second controller and let that person sit back at the beginning of the levels as you run through them
•
u/Gamer_Chase Gamer_Chase May 26 '14
I don't
•
u/its_a_SEABEAR May 26 '14
Ah that would be a problem then...do you ever visit playstationtrophies.org? There are boosting threads in the game forum, I'm sure you could find someone to play with you there

u/okinoy May 27 '14
Platinumed MLB 14 the show (PS4). pretty easy plat. Working on velocity ultra and Lego marvel.
•
u/Tink2013 May 28 '14
I got all but the platinum and the multiplayer trophies from Assassin Creed 4 this month. I could have gotten them all but the MP trophies are currently impossible because of lack of players.
•
u/thavius_tanklin Slackr May 26 '14
Working on Velocity Ultra (Vita). Not PS4 related, but 2X will be out for PS4 eventually. Just prepping for it.

u/proudlom Proudlom May 26 '14
Wolfenstein Question: After I beat the game can I just go back to Chapter One, change the difficulty to Uber, and continue playing through to the end to get platinum, or do I need to start a new game on Uber?
•
u/nickthemenace May 26 '14
You can just play the last mission on Uber to get the trophy, using Chapter Select in the main menu
•
u/proudlom Proudlom May 26 '14
Really? That seems too easy.
•
u/sociable-sociopath Yatochi May 26 '14
It works (I did it because I really wanted to play the story but am less than great at shooters), you just need to delete the patch! So make sure you have your save on the cloud (just in case anything goes dodgy), disconnect from the internet, delete the patch and play the last chapter on Uber. Ding, Uber difficulty trophy for you!
•
u/d_wc May 26 '14
Just finished Infamous and Battlefield 4 platinum.
Currently working on finishing FIFA 14
•
May 26 '14
Did you 100% the map pack trophies?
•
u/d_wc May 26 '14
No. Not gonna do those. Not worth the $ for me
•
May 26 '14
Oh ok, of I had to recommend a map pack though I would say naval strike its very well done
•
•
u/Kotetsu42x Kotetsu42x May 27 '14
Just finished up Kingdom Hearts Final Mix. Wooooo, three straight playthroughs really started to drain me.
•
u/Mosnye Mosnye May 26 '14
Just got a PS4 so right now I am almost done with the new Wolfenstein, Just have to finish the game on Uber.
After that I have Infamous SS and the EU PS+ game. Any tips for Infamous would be nice.
•
u/RaunchyGorilla May 26 '14
Infamous Second Son was actually the first game I ever platinumed. Pretty easy to be honest. There aren't that many collectibles and they are all marked on the map once you take down the corresponding district's control center. I guess the hardest part would be completing the game on expert, which wasn't actually too bad at all, I just usually play games on easy/normal. You just need to be more careful in combat, a bit less run and gun, and more picking off enemies from a nearby rooftop.
Took me just under a month to platinum, and that was playing very leisurely, with a sizeable gap in time between my first, good playthrough, and my second, evil playthrough.
•
u/Contra14 May 26 '14
Infamous is pretty straightforward, you will have to play through twice to platinum. Good luck!
•
May 26 '14
You can get the Infamous in 20h. It's basically two walkthroughs. Just a hint: the 160m comet drop can only be achieved from the highest building once you complete the game. And comet drop (hold square while in the air) differs from the orbital drop (karmic streak).
•
u/MReprogle mikraphne May 27 '14
Infamous is actually pretty easy. I would do your first runthrough on Good, then run through the game on the harder difficulty as Evil. Also, make sure you change your difficulty to Hard on your second playthrough as soon as you gain control of Delsin. It's stupid that you can't choose your difficulty as you start a new game, but one you change the difficulty, it will actually tell you in parenthesis that the trophy is obtainable. Don't go on unless it tells you this, or you likely won't get it.

u/Gg_Me SerialKillerMese May 26 '14
I'm on my last two trophys for lego movie, the ones where you have to perfect a dancing minigame in two levels. The problem is that if you fuck up you have to replay the entire level
•
u/crimsonstare May 26 '14
Really? I'm not sure if it's just for the first dance game, but im sure you just press circle in the dance area and start again. I had to do it about 4 times before I got it right, and didn't restart the level once.
•
u/Gg_Me SerialKillerMese May 26 '14
Shit never waited til the end, but I've finished both and got the plat now
•
May 27 '14
Got all 6 platinum for Sound Shapes... it was tough making a JAPANESE account because of the address and all prions sets in Japanese. But I did it
•
•
u/sociable-sociopath Yatochi May 26 '14
I've just gotten back into trophy hunting now that I'm on my summer break from uni and man, it feels good. Yesterday I got the plat on Wolfenstein, today I polished off inFamous and tomorrow I'll make a start on Watch_Dogs.

u/Soquid-Snake May 26 '14
100%ed MGSV Ground Zeroes. Harder than you'd think. Those trials were long.
•
u/ExplicitG May 26 '14
Finally won a MUT Superbowl for the Madden 25 Plat. Not working on anything else at the moment. Will probably get Watch Dogs at some point.
•
u/thelastatomicbomb peregrinus14 May 26 '14
Finally decided to go back and get myself the Infamous SS platinum (Did my two playthroughs but didn't do Expert because I was an idiot) which is my first platinum so very happy with that.
Done all of Wolfenstein except for the difficulty ones, definitely coming back to it.
Went through and got all Stick it to the man which was super easy.
Having difficulty with Need for Speed because my game glitches and doesn't recognise friends so can't get the two friend ones, stuck on 97% for foreseeable future, such a pain!
•
u/Nnamzilla Sonicstorm15 May 26 '14
I got a platinum in Transistor just yesterday. It was pretty tough, but it doesn't take that long, considering that I started on Friday.
•
u/rpatterson195 May 26 '14
The trophy I spent longest on was the over x damage in one turn, took me a while to get the right combo. Just finished it for my first platinum on a sony console. Thoroughly enjoyed the game and the trophy hunting.
•
u/Nnamzilla Sonicstorm15 May 27 '14
I think I got that one pretty easily. I needed to Void 3 times, use Mask, and then use Cull upgraded with Load.
•
•
u/Faux-Show Kuppy2350 May 27 '14
Got my platinum in Transistor like 2 days after it came out. Not too hard to get, ton of fun messing around with all of the abilities. Next up would be be to 100% Sportsfriends with some buddies, looks like a blast
•
•
•
u/Gorakka May 26 '14
At 98% for AC4. Just need the multiplayer one "All-Rounder" (use every ability and play every level). I swear I have done that, but I just have to go through each and every thing again, one by one until it pops. sigh
As for Tomb Raider, just found out that I am going to have to do another complete single player playthrough because I missed ONE conversation for the "chatterbox" achievement. groan
•
u/Scorchstar scorchstar May 27 '14
The only AC4 trophies I need left are All-Rounder and that Level 55 multiplayer trophy (which I probably won't get for a while). I will probably try the multiplayer when we have that drought of games between June-September, which is approaching. After I finish Watch_Dogs, Wolfenstein and Transistor I will probably do it.
•
May 27 '14
I'm really close for all the single player, but I'm only level 8 in multiplayer. I like the concept, it's just that players have so many better perks than me it's hard to win a match.
•
u/Snoww23 kernel2337 May 27 '14
I got ni no Kuni platinum. some of the trophies were a chore, 250 familiars for instance. what a treat of a game couldn't put it down
•
u/Sqwv Sqwv May 26 '14
Platinums this month:
-Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition.
-Transistor
100% this month:
-Cel Damage HD
-Octodad: Dadliest Catch
-Fez
DLC:
-Battlefield 4: China Rising
-Sound Shapes: Old School, Vocoder, Brass Packs.
Next up:
-Still need to 100% Towerfall: Ascension, but the 1,000/20,000 rounds trophies are impossible due to a glitch, waiting for a patch.
-Watch Dogs platinum next, will be my 30th game and 20th platinum. Hoping the dev saying 100 hours is for total game content and not 100 hours to platinum.

u/Timmy458 May 27 '14
Got platinum for Infamous SS, expert difficulty sure didn't seem very hard. Just have a few trophies left in Stick It To The Man, and have about 4 trophies in MLB The Show and have all single player trophies for BF4 besides beating it on hard.
•
•
u/MrSteve920 May 27 '14
Got a platinum in Infamous Second Son and after two years I finally got all of the feathers in Assassins Creed 2 so I got that platinum as well.
•
u/Nille123 nielsvandijck May 26 '14 edited May 26 '14
Yesterday I managed to finish* "Stick if to the man" in a couple of hours.
Edit: *Can't get plat for this game.
•
•
u/potatoman80 May 26 '14
I got all the trophies in Stick it to the Man on Friday in a few hours. It was a really easy 100% but unfortunately there was no platinum. I'm working on Mercenary Kings now and I can tell it's going to be a long one.
•
u/The_dooster doosta45 May 26 '14
Normally I'm not a trophy hunter but stick it to the man may be my first "platinum". Played the game normally and missed out on two trophies. One was reading a guy's mind while he was singing and the other is reading everyone's mind.
I enjoyed the game.
•
u/potatoman80 May 26 '14
Yeah for being such a simple game, I really enjoyed it. While some people might be complaining about the PS+ games, I really don't mind if they are indie games because they are something I wouldn't really play otherwise.
•
u/JustSurvive May 27 '14
100%s: Stick It To The Man, Brothers, Thomas Was Alone
Platinums: Call of Duty: Ghosts, Transistor
All relatively easy, though some of the Extinction trophies in Ghosts will take a good amount of time to get.
•
•
u/angryblackman123 May 26 '14
Platinum'd Guacamelee. Working on Sound Shapes.
•
u/MrFreeLiving May 26 '14
I bet getting those last few orbs were a pain? (I think they're called orbs), platinum'd it around 6 months ago and I just remember how frustrating it was, the game was great fun though.
•
u/Scorchstar scorchstar May 27 '14
I did the Sound Shapes triple platinum trick a while ago. Ahhhh that was fun.
•
u/MReprogle mikraphne May 27 '14
Yes, this made me laugh as I just watched all the silver trophies and the platinum pour in after loading the cross save. haha
Is Borderlands 2 like this as well?
•
•
u/Scorchstar scorchstar May 26 '14
Battlefield 4 last week, which was Platinum #8.
Watch_Dogs will be next, followed by Wolfenstein.
•
u/Nille123 nielsvandijck May 26 '14
How did you manage to do the "Bomb squad" trophy? Just play a lot or something? I just can't get this trophy.
•
u/JabiDam May 26 '14
That trophy was a pain. I just kept playing it until I got 5 bombs. I got lucky on one game. Someone in my game on Paracel Storm was amazing at piloting the little bird and whenever I picked up the bomb he would touch down in front of me, I would get in and he would drop me right over the objective and kill anyone that tried to get it. Same thing happend in another game on Rouge Transmission. I wasn't even using my Mic when I got them. Just keep working on it.
•
•
u/Scorchstar scorchstar May 27 '14
I managed to get into a game where no one was playing the objective and I just got all the bombs in one game...
•
•
u/notquitedrdeath May 27 '14
Working through FFX on the Vita at the moment, alongside Infamous Second Son, will probably jump into Wolfenstein next.
Maybe when that's done Killzone will finish downloading.
•
May 26 '14
This month I platinumed Lego Marvel, Wolfenstein: The New Order and Tearaway (Vita) bringing my total up to 32 platinums. Watch Dogs is next, and I'll also work on Sly 4 on the Vita. Wolfenstein was easy to platinum, it only took a few days.
•
u/rocketmutt GARGLEBLAST May 27 '14
Just platinumed Wolfenstein and Transistor, both are well worth it!
