Online Team Play, I think... It took me forever to figure that out.

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

You can change the team you are controlling at anytime during the game to pick the winning team and then resume super simming.

Wow, that's ridiculous. Thanks, probably saved me a good 1-2 hours of messing around with getting the right team to win.

yeah, I just simmed to the start of the 4th quarter then changed sides to the winning team. If it was a close game then I just did the sim to next possession until I could tell who was going to win. It still took an hour or so because there are a million bowl games and the load times took forever, but at least I got the win for each one.

Kev, your creativity with earning trophies is unmatchable. I may be hitting you up for some advice on some of the RDR trophies!

Yeah it is, probably the quickest way to do this as I did the same thing. These are the ones I am missing and the fourth one "Setup Shop In the Big 3" I think pops up at the end of the season which I used the trick of buying Texas pipeline for $2. Since I'm renting the game, I don't care about the $2 to get a trophy. Currently Best Class Ever and Point Some Fingers are giving me a bit of a problem.

Best Class Ever
Have the #1 ranked recruiting class in a season in single team Dynasty Mode.

Point Some Fingers
In a single phone call, take 250 points away from one school by downplaying pitches.

Program Changer
Sign a 5-star QB or HB with a 2-star prestige school in a single team Dynasty (no ATH).

Setup Shop In the Big 3
In a single team Dynasty, develop new pipelines in Texas, California, and Florida.

All you have to do to get Best Class Ever is set the recruiting to Freshman and then sim a season with Oklahoma. Sim all the way through the season and the 5-week offseason recruiting and they should be #1. If not, just do it again.

You'll have a hard time with Program Changer if you can't use Teambuilder. I used Teambuilder to get Point Some Fingers pretty easily too, but I imagine you can get that one with a top school like Bama or USC without much hassle. Just use a top school and find a recuit that is interested in lesser schools, then just do the compare pitches call for the whole 60 minutes.

For the Setup Shop In the Big 3 you have to have all three states as pipelines. Easiest school to get it is Notre Dame because they already have two of the three states.

Thanks Kevin, I'll try these tonight. I've been using Bama to get most of my trophies.

LOL, I bought the extra pipeline state for $2 too. Ah, the things we'll do for trophies...

Oh well, I figured it would take at least an hour to get that trophy, and I'd like to think my time is worth more than $2/hour.

I purchased that extra pipeline as well because I wanted it for my Auburn dynasty. It isn't a one time use, you can use it for every dynasty you start. I gave it to ND and got that trophy immediately.

yeah that's part of the fun! Man RDR is a long game that's for sure to get 100%, I really like that. I haven't played RDR online yet just because that really isn't my thing, but if the online ones are doable I'll be up for it.

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

So after one 15:00 quarters game against the Raiders, I now have 57% of the trophies in Madden 11.

Are you talking about downloading the PS3T team for Program Changer?

I made my own TeamBuilder team (The Rocket City Trophies lol). I created a 2* team and then editted all the players to be 99 overall and set their pitches to all A+. I played each of their first few games changing my offense scheme to get the offensive style trophies, then could super sim the rest of the game after I met the requirements for each trophy. After I earned all the offensive style trophies (and the defensive interception ones since my defenders were so good) I was able to super sim the rest of the season and win all my games to make a BCS game for that trophy (I put my TeamBuilder team into a non-BCS conference). I did the recruiting myself in the season and since I made myself have such good pitch ratings I was able to convince a 5* HB to sign with me. I was a little worried about that because there were only 2 5* HBs and 1 5* QB to even recruit, but I was able to sign one late in the season. Also since my pitch ratings were so high, I didn't have a problem with the compare pitch phone calls to pull points from a lesser school and get the Point Some Fingers trophy.

Since you didn't buy the game and can't use TeamBuilder unless you pay money (isn't that right?) I think you can still get the Point Some Fingers trophy pretty easily with Bama. Just look at some recruits in Mississippi and find one that has one of the Mississippi schools as a top team and start comparing your pitches to them because their ratings are much lower than Bama's, except change the call conversation when Conference Prestige comes up because you'll both have a A+ for that pitch.

Ok, this is my last trophy and then I can platinum this darn game. For some reason I can't download any teams from team builder, and I have a feeling because I am renting the game. I was reading at ps3trophies that Vanderbilt is another good team to use for this and by week 8-9 the trophy should pop up. These recruiting trophies are just way too time consuming imo.

yeah you have to have the EA Sport Online Pass for TeamBuilder and that costs $10 unless you buy the game with the voucher in it.
