Do you have Platinums with help from real life friend?

[ZoKu08]

Yes, my friend helped me in Battlefield 3, Gta 4 and Gta 5

[chickenbaltipie]

Few good games there, and currently doing gauntlet where you keep destroying all of my food

Also may we never forget the good games in the past with your old account (rip) foc, resistance 3, dead rising 2 and many more

The fun we had with portal 2 and spelunker

And the unforgettable moments (which never happened) with resistance 2 and outrun (press the x button)

 

Ha ha - food is for wimps!

[Manuelito]

Yes almost all the friend related trophies in FIFA games. Although I didn't ask help, they just came playing randomly

[Luzuka_]

Only one, Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Hello i was wondering of anyone completed a platium with help help from a IRL friend? Like my hanna montana did my girlfriend cuz i het stuck with the dance moves:p (yeah is suck)

 

The thread title and original post allude to two different things.

 

"Platinum's with help from real life friend" is so vague that it could simply mean that a real life friend had, at some stage, played in multi-player or co-op with you while you achieved trophies on your way to eventually earning a Platinum. Then you say "completed a Platinum", inferring you couldn't have done it if not for their assistance.

 

Now, I have a close crew of about 8 people who all live in the same suburb/local area and we have known each other for years (since about Counter-Strike 1.3 days). we generally try to play games that have a multi-player or co-op component, so we can get together and have LAN nights. Along the way, some of these friends have been in my party while achieving trophies in Destiny, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, Resogun and Borderlands 2.

 

While some of these friends and I went to the midnight Destiny launch in our suburb, played the game and earned a bunch of trophies together, the hardest trophy for the Platinum in that game, Flawless Raider (Complete a Raid without anyone in your fireteam dying.), was earned with a bunch of randoms I met in The Tower. I did get some help grinding out Batting 500 (Complete 500 Bounties.) in DIII:RoS with my RL friends, as well as Demolition Derby (Get a destruction callout for breaking 50 objects. - as I didn't have a character with decent AoE breaking skills) but it wasn't necessary for the Plat, as it can be done solo. I also earned a few Resogun trophies while playing co-op with a mate, but they weren't necessary in terms of achieving the Platinum, as it can also be done solo.

 

The only game in which a RL friend has contributed to a Platinum that couldn't have been achieved "solo" was Borderlands 2. I got help with Challenge Accepted

(Completed level 1 of all non-level-specific challenges with a single character) trophy as some of the Badass Challenges require interaction with other players in co-op or party, namely Psst, Hey Buddy... (Trade with other players), This is No Time for Lazy! (Revive a co-op partner) and Haters Gonna Hate (Win duels).

[MrKend54l]

Never did, and never will. What is the point in earning a platinum when you didn't earn it yourself?

This does not go for multiplayer trophies by the way.

[x_PsYcHoTiCz]

My mate helped me split screen with mw2 spec ops thats about it really

[- Deleted -]

I don't have any real life friends, so nope. 

This.

[pl0000pl]

My friend (IMrSmith) helped me platinum borderlands 2

[mysticmosh]

My mate from up the road to me helped each other with the two online NFS Rivals trophies. He also helped me get the 45 Old School trophy in Battlefield 4 when I shot him through the head 

[Shakilrahman96]

My ex accidentally was signed into my account when she started play Final Fantasy Type-0 and almost platinumed it until she realised she was on my account and not hers lol....

She never finished it off because she wanted me to play the game, which is what I will do when I get a PS4 hahaha, still bothers me like

[Razza]

I remember a few years back I went out and brought Dead Rising 2 for a friend just so he could help me do the co-op trophies ... I should of just used the gaming sessions part of this site  

[FetchTheBall]

Depends how this is meant.

 

I've had help on steam achievements regarding co-op or multiplayer stuff before. Same when I had a ps3 way back. However I've never gotten help or a friend to do a trophy/achievement for me that is single player. I've even set up a account so my partner can try games I have shes not sure on getting without unlocking any for me by accident.(a US account too for store deals, go me:P And self boosting yay!) It wouldn't feel right to me to have a friend unlock something even if it was easy, especially if it was hard. 

 

Again, if it's co-op or multiplayer then that requires other people anyway so..

[AARCT1C]

Yeah, one of my best mates (nato8956) helped me with Dying Light platinum and Destiny platinum.

[MafiaBrett]

Just my one buddy i went to middle school with. He actually got me into trophy hunting, and occasionally we help each other out on coop or multiplayer games.

[dark69knight]

Will Sometimes I Help My Friends But In Real Life No I Like Getting Trophy On My Own Even When I Need Help I Try With My Brother He Usually Not Helping For Free   

[Pyro]

Not really, the only help I've had is mainly FIFA related winning co-op etc,,

[bryman098]

I've only had help with rocket league to get barras bravas but that's it, I usually just ask for help here as there will be people who own the game I'm playing or know what to do when helping me

[Venocide]

Nope. I have friends with PS4's but they aren't trophies hunters. COD and FIFA, that's all they play. 

[SkyesUnholy]

Only 2 of my best mates have helped me with trophies

 

1st friend:

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 - help with Zombies trophies although we were having fun, we didn't see it as boosting

GTA V - majority of the online was done playing and enjoying the game, again, we didn't see it as boosting

Minecraft (PS3) - he had a world with built areas to get the majority of the trophies

Resident Evil 5 - Coop'ed the entire game

Sword Art Online Re: Hollow Fragment - grinded and did hollow missions with

 

2nd friend:

Far Cry 3 - the coop missions

Fifa 15 (PS4) - that stupid Extra Effort trophy

[xWinson]

I was at university when I got my PS3 and had a massive gamer friend as a housemate - so we had regular coop gaming sessions but most of the time we weren't aiming for trophies, just passively getting them.

[LordCrush1913]

No, and I never considered asking a RL friend for help with trophies, until I came across this damn FIFA16 trophy where you need to win all 4 games of an online FUT draft session... ^{I'm not really good at FIFA}

[The_Blackout_Kid]

I wish lol. All my friends play a lot of the games I only dabble in (COD, BF4, Halo, etc.). Which is a shame because I sure could use some help 100%ing Shank since it only has couch co-op.

[hore]

Geometry Wars 3, a close friend of mine did the co-op with me.

He also helped me with the GTA V multiplayer.

Amazing guy, he doesn't even care for trophies and he helps with them

I have somebody like this, but he's my cousin. Doesn't give a f*ck about platinums even when he's really close to achieving them, yet he'll help me boost grindy trophies and persevere through hardcore playthroughs with me like BO3 on realistic, Sniper Elite 3 on authentic, etc. Glad to have him. I just wish he didn't suck at stealth. 

 

I've had a few IRL friends help with trophies, though not to the same extent.The first real instance occurred with BF3. I was grateful for the 1-2 friends that helped me do the BF3 co-op missions on hard; it was pretty special having them there to share the frustration (and subsequent celebration) with me, which is why I put the hardest BF3 trophy -- Drop 'Em Like Liquid -- in my trophy cabinet.

[Nihiris-]

Yup quite a few. Multiplayer crap.
