I will be grabbing a copy of Army Of Two in the next couple of days and will be setting up events to finish it off, i want serious people only as the Billion dollar achievement can take some time but if done right can be done in under 10 hours as i've heard.

Boosting guide for Billion Dollar Cheev for AoT:

Need 4 people. Create a match, make sure it's RANKED (Clicking Y to change between Ranked/Unranked). Invite your friends. Bounties on Afghanistan, 20 minutes.

2 People will be doing the major boosting, while the others run around and do random objectives. (The 2 others can't just sit there, or the people boosting won't get as much money)

The two boosting, find the dock, on the very left side there is a tank, blow it up, then both of you run over there with your sniper rifles. If one partner crouches, and the other stands behind him at the left of the blown up tank, you should be able to aim toward the middle rock in the distance and see a piece of the hovercraft sticking out. Snipe at that piece. In the beginning, it will take quite a few shots. Watch out for enemies behind you, as they tend to randomly spawn.

Once you and your partner hit $300,000, turn around, and run up back towards the building, and turn right. There's a weapon/ammo box thing in there, and buy weapon pack 7. That sniper rifle only takes five shots total to blow up the hovercraft. Continue throughout the 20 minute match.

While one team is shooting the hovercraft, the other needs to be running around doing all the other objectives that pop up on the screen. I recommend shooting the computers, as one person can do Computers 1 and 2 very easily by camping on the catwalk, and the third person can camp at Computer 3. When those stop popping up as objectives, run around and do other random shit until the computers become the objective again.

That's my guide in a nutshell. I do NOT want to help boost that achievement ever again, but if someone needs an actual in game explanation, I can come and help show what to do.

K great.

This is going to be interesting when they shut down servers for games that people have bought an online pass for. I would be pissed if I paid $10 for an online pass for a game just to have them shut down the servers.

I was just thinking about that when I clicked on the link to open this thread. What will EA be doing with all its current releases that require you to purchase an online pass if you didn't buy the game new? I feel a dick near my ass and feel as though I am about to get fucked.

To my knowledge there is no "official" thread on this site for the server closings.

I personally don't care if you do make one, just make sure it is a complete list.

To get you started check this webpage http://www.ea.com/1/service-updates ... it has all the current and past EA closings. Just don't copy and paste everything as not everything is related to the 360...

Online Skate Achievements. If anyone wants to boost it, let me know. But just fyi, I won't have it until Friday, as I have to go unpack it >_<. From reading some of the guides, basically all we need to do is grind exp, and the rest of the achievements should come (take turns winning, and such). Also, I'm removing the spoiler, because it takes up the same amount of space.

Host With the Most
Host an unranked online session

Also seems like the Reel servers are up at the moment...not sure if it's just my system messing up or EA actually making some of the achievements obtainable again til they shut it off.

Just noting that I put up a couple boosting sessions for Army of Two for the billion dollar achievements.

Too much crap to get done before the servers go down

I gave up on this so long ago, I hate EA for shutting down servers and yet they continue to put Online Achievements into their games. It's gotten to the point that I kinda have refused to buy an EA sports game if it has online achievements as I don't play online much anymore either that or I get the game and then just get the maximum I can get without playing multiplayer.
