tkmj75 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 After the 1.25 Driveclub update, there is now an option of getting silver stars on the Tour mode, which have a bit easier requirements on the star requirements for each. However, my question is, can you pop the trophies for the tour mode by playing silver starts (instead of gold)? Has anyone tried this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sp483 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 You still have to get the stars in normal mode to get the trophies. Don't really see the point of easy mode, myself. It can actually be quite annoying because you can select it by accident by putting the controller down, which sometimes presses L2 or R2, and then have to redo the event in normal because you only beat it in easy without knowing it.

Cobby Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 You can't earn the trophies with easy mode (silver stars). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I guess the overall progress of the game will remain very low for me, even after getting the platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_hunter_x2 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 You still get trophies with silver stars in the dlc s , like "unlock aditional events etc .." you have to play the final championship of the dlc s on gold though for the trophy. The get all stars gold trophy i don t know if you get it with all silverstars but i ll try that out today 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely can't get the gold trophies by getting all the silver stars, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuelito Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 This has already been discussed. Anyways: Luckily silver starts don't trigger the gold trophy. You can get all the others at least.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manuelito Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Wasn't the championship trophy also gold-locked?Reading the trophy descriptions it looks like only the gold trophy and the beginner trophy are unobtainable with silver star. I don't know if the easy mode block the champions trophy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Han_the_Dragon Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 I'm unsure what the easy mode makes easier outside of the star requirement (does it lower the AI difficulty?), but from my current playing, it seams you always get the silver stars if you play on normal and meet the requirements for them (I have 3 silver stars on 2 Time Trails, even tough I only have 2 Gold Stars on them), not sure if this also works the other way around. Also if you just want to aim for silver stars, go with brake assist set to low, I have been playing with it most of the time and it makes things easier if you don't know the braking points or if you have troubles managing the car (it either have some kind of hidden throttle control, or something because I feel the cars more tight and have less problems with wheel spin on some troublesome cars..), said that it doesn't help much to get the 3 gold stars on some of them.. the best I usually can get with it is 0,5-1 second away from the 3 star target and I end up needing to turn it off to get the stars (just happened in the last 3 events that I tried... but end up beating them more easily.. seams like it worked to learn the breaking points better, and feeling the car more loose helped to be faster).. Still unsure if I will manage to 100% this.. Only 10 stars, 8 events, 7 of them time trails + 1 stupid long race to go.. maybe I will try the race on easy first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) May as well try it tomorrow on Sakura. It's been unearned for too long. Ok, Championship is gold-locked. Confirmed by the trophy description. But after I checked the trophy descriptions, Gold star trophy does not have that addition... I may try getting all silver stars to see. EDIT: More info I found while messing around. Unlock trophies unlock normally on easy mode Unlocked events are immediately available to play on standard (so that pretty much means you will be able to play tournament after unlocking it on easy and beat it for the silver trophy) Time trials work for both modes, meaning, if you meet requirement for gold star while on easy mode, gold star is unlocked (like, it makes sense, since time trials can't really be nerfed =D), so I presume that would apply to drift events as well. It does not apply to race events (even if they have e.g. meet speed requirement star) Addition to the previous point, even if you already have previously met requirement (example: I have 2:35 time on one event and silver star requires 2:36) the star won't be unlocked, so you need to do it again. I will update after trying Sakura. Edited December 12, 2015 by Satoshi Ookami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalailama1989 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Ok, finished. And as expected, the gold trophy is gold-locked. Yep, I wrote that in the "Easy Mode" thread 10 days ago, too But after I got all silver stars and was at like 41/45 gold one's, I finally tried to do all of them now. After having played DC Bikes as well, I'm pretty familiar with all tracks and those gold trophies aren't actually too hard at all. I never thought I would be able to manage even one of those but now I'm more than halfways through all packs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only like 30 gold stars on Sakura =D I may complete that one only because it's Japan, I still don't feel like doing all =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least on new DLCs, I just tested it on AMG (deliberately on the Heavy Duty race so it wouldn't count towards gold stars) and got the trophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
