Kittens Are Awesome Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Just in case any of you who are don't know and have Motorstorm: Pacific Rift, the servers are closing in three months (10/01/12). I found this while looking for boosting partners on another site. I just got this game this week and am in need of some boosters if anybody is interested. I started a group on the gaming session section (as of this post, 7/1/12). You can join the session or send me a message/friend request on PSN.

You're better off not boosting (when online wasn't dead) because it actually takes longer as many folks want to get their rank to legend...

Ah, Motorstorm: Pacific Rift, one of the games I accidentally loaded up and have on my trophy list. Not that I was, but I shall never get the plat......oh well, there is always the double-platinum Motorstorm: RC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I'm actually surprised they've kept them up this long. I guess I've just been hearing about EA closing servers that are a year old because the new version of the game came out... Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehCro Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 It wasn't too long ago when they shut down the original MotorStorm servers. I think it was this year actually. Anyway, as long as they keep the Apocalypse servers up for a while, I'll be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattas22 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Glad i got all my online trophies a couple of months ago. Took a long time to get 8 people to legend & 3 of us were using 2 ps3's with 2 copies of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never played a racing game before so, I'm still new at this. I've been looking for games all week with no luck. I finally found some today (Sunday). I at least got my "play with 12 racers" trophy. However, I'm pretty bad at the game still. I was hoping to get some time in with the speed races for practice. Doesn't look like I have that luxury anymore. I'll do my best though. Damn if I'm not going to get the MP trophies before the servers close.

Simmy_82 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Also glad i got my Plat, and online DLC trophies. I only have ghost times and events on the DLC to beat so should be ok. I've downloaded the ghosts too. However we do have til October to get the trophies remaing, which is plenty of time if you want to go for Plat EDIT: Yea, I know it's old.

Mattas22 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Just thought id mention you need at least 4 people to play casual races & at least 6 to boost ranked. Mind you with 6 it'll take a long time to get legend & will hardly be worth it for those involved. When we had 6 we were only getting 1% on Hero towards legend so if you did it like that you'd need 300 races to go from Hero to legend. It's only really worth doing if you've got 9 or 10 with some ex legends sticking around to help the others. Edited July 3, 2012 by Mattas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I couldn't even find games on Sat. If there was some way I could get a group together, although highly unlikely, I might get some progress.

Kittens Are Awesome Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 With a great, patient group, you can roll through the MP trophies (including Legend) in less than two weeks. Mattas was right when he says you need more than six people to do it in a decent period of time. We have/had as many as 12 for a while there. After somebody hits Legend Rank, they just sit idle as a mule. Some of them are pretty good with sticking with the rest of us. Luckily, I hit my Legend Rank last night. Now, I just have to wait for the next four guys to hit Legend and we are all done. Would have liked to have done this one legit, however, real games are so few and far between it makes getting things complete before it's too late near impossible. Thanks to those who helped.

NismoR033 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Anyone still interested in going for these? I'm definitely willing to give the online trophies a shot if it is worthwhile and there are other people also willing to do the same. I may be in Australia but I usually play at night/early morning my time which is a little bit more in line with people overseas, so it's not necessarily impossible. I don't have a mic though, unfortunately, so that makes things a little harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittens Are Awesome Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 Just over six weeks to go. Anybody worried? Anybody think they will give a MP buff? Say like, don't lose XP and/or 3x XP? I hope they do some kind of XP buff. That would suck for those trying to get it done near the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kittens Are Awesome Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) There shouldn't be a buff. Folks had ample time to do this. Yea, I have to admit, it would errk me a little if they did. But it isn't unheard of. Edit: Anybody notice the rarity of MSPR dropped 1% as soon as they implemented the cheater filter? It should drop even more than that. When I was looking to buy this game to begin with, when you went to ebay and searched for the game, even before the game itself, this trophy service popped up. Kind of sad to buy the trophies for MSPR and miss out on such a great racing game (even if mind numbingly cheap. Looking at you rank 7 & 8 festival AI).
