Help with 5000 kill achievement
im sorry to say but i think that this is one achievemnt that you got to boost for. people may say im a noob and stuff and i kind of am but 5000 kills is a lot especially since there isn't a lot of people that play this game in the first place. also it would probably take me all year to get this if not more so what im really asking is that i want to set up a boosting room. everyone that helps gets to try to ge the achievement too. i will try to span this oer a couple of weeks because i know with multiple people this is going to take a long time. again sorry to all those people that say boosting is bad and it is but i find that this achievement impossible to get without.

Re: Help with 5000 kill achievement
I'd be down.  Can we make it Team Deathmatch so I can go for that achievement too?

When are you typically on?

Re: Help with 5000 kill achievement
I would need the other online achievements as well but I could be interested.

How long is this likely to take? I guess 100kills an hour would still be 50hours Surprise [:O] So I guess this will take hours and hours. Whats your typical kill rate?

Re: Help with 5000 kill achievement

You can get over 100 kills every 15 minute game, i usualy got 104 or 105.

You only need 2 people.

Select team deathmatch.

Whoever is doing the killing wants to be the Cylons.

Both players pick the ship with the highest firepower/lowest shields.

Once the game launches the Human team does nothing.  The Cylon team just keeps killing the Humans at there spawn points.

There are only 7-8 spawn points and you always spawn in a set pattern, so you can be there ready to kill at every new spawn.

Ok, I'll plan on being on around 5 Central (3 Pacific).  Maybe a bit earlier.

I also need to 3 Domination wins in a row.  I think I'm sitting on one or two right now.  Would it be cool if we boosted that for me as well?

Ouch so its 13hrs minimum for 1 player to get 5000 kills. Then with taking it in turns and dwell time between games thats gonna be over 25hrs Surprise [:O]

Daunting!

This working like a charm, albeit a very drawn-out charm...

I borrowed my friend's 360, moved his profile to my 360 and my profile to his.  I set up the game between the 2 systems with me as the Heavy Raider and him as the Viper VII.  Instantly jet cross-arena and kill him within 10-12 seconds of start.  After that, I follow the spawn pattern and kill him every 8 seconds.  Now I'm getting 111 kills per match consistently with an occasional 112 or 110.  28 games yesterday and I have 3068 kills (I'm keeping an excel spreadsheet to know when I'll be done :) )

Anyway, follow this spawn pattern:
3
2
1
4
5
6
7
8.

This will make sense if you play it.  Just make sure that whenever you're killing your 8th, 16th, 24th, etc Viper that you immediately turn 180 and book it back to where 1 respawns.

I've been doing 1vs1 Team Deathmatches and also unlocked the 50 TM achievement last night.

It takes a lot to get these games going and a lot more time to get it, but I'm going to be happy joining the 8 people that have the 5k achievement.

Wow so you can do this in 2 days I'm guessing, if 1 player doesn't need kills

Thats the crux of it, I reckon I will try and borrow my nieces 360 and try it in system link.

But I will just wait to see if system link will definitely unlock it 1st tho! Smile [:)]

Re: Help with 5000 kill achievement
I doubt system link will work since the kills have to come from online ranked.  I think you should be able to just swap your hard drive with your niece's.  If her profile is on your 360, she should have rights to play it.  If your profile is on her 360, you should have rights to play it.

The central BSG server is what tracks your total kills and matches and there's no way to know how close you are.  I recommend keeping a running total so you know how far from 5000 you are.  There's no way to know how many kills you have before you start this process to know if you really only like 4873, or whatever, to get.

As soon as I'm done with this later tonight, I don't think I'll ever play it again :)

I still need it. Message me when you want to boost and if I am online, I will most likely join right away (as long as I'm not currently in a match in another game or something)

Im currently looking at doing this on some soft core boosting. There are a couple of us doing this already.   If you are interested send me a message and a friend request and we can set up maybe a few matches a day.  It would take some grinding but doable.  The more the merrier!
