Bytesize Takedown Trophy tip

[Crispy_Oglop]

The vehicles for this don't have to be travelling, you can actually destroy parked enemy vehicles you find outside some bandit dens and roadside encounters too and they will count. Additionally destroying vehicles in the Chazcar Derby count as well.

 

There is also a Bandit Den called 'Underpass' directly East of Gunbarrel which has 4 parked cars in it close together. You can also use the autosave feature with this too.

 

Edit: Thanks to @Snake2410 for this extra info -

 

"There are actually 6 vehicles in the Underpass, two bikes and 4 cars.  They all count, but only if you blow up the bikes directly.  Them getting blown up with the explosion of another vehicle doesn't seem to count in the stats at all.  I just used missiles on the bikes because it seemed to add them to stats, whereas for some reason the explosion of one bike with minigun fire caused the other bike to blow up."

Great tip. Will definitely be using the reload the autosave to grind this. It’s definitely much faster than chasing around convoys. Thanks for this ?

It's called "UNDERPASS" and it is directly East.

Just finished off the cars needed for the trophy at Underpass. Thanks to both of you!

You are totally correct, I made the edits to the original post there, I clearly needed more coffee when i posted originally ?

AWESOME!  Just came to the forum to ask if parked cars count and here you are.  Thank you for the tip!

By "Autosave feature" do you mean destroy 4 vehicles, suicide then re-load?

That's affirmative  There are also a bunch of other locations people are talking about where there are lots of vehicles parked to destroy, I just like this one as it's so close to a fast travel point in Gunbarrel.

No that's not what he means.

No need to suicide.

 Well you can suicide if you want to, whatever works really.

 

If you are combining this with grinding for the Goon De Leet trophy, then by the time you've gone in to take all 4 cars down and all but one of the goons in the camp, chances are you might be very low on health so you can let yourself get finished off by the remaining enemy.

 

I had emptied the camp out already when i was doing it, so I found reloading the autosave was more efficient

Oh nice! I tried the bikes too initially but I didn't see the counter going up so assumed they didn't count. I'll edit the initial post with that info, thanks

It was hit or miss, but it did seem more consistent when I locked on to them with missiles.  It was usually adding 5 or 6 with each attempt that way.

I have been killing the convoy leader for the past 30 minutes and the Gonevoy Trophy won't unlock.

 

Anyone have any suggestions. Playing the unpatched version of the game. 

 

 

Solved it:

I decided to get another trophy and gave Gonevoy another attempt right after and it popped.

Just wait until your car is fully upgraded and then start taking down convoys. Every convoy has 6-10 cars. Hit the weak spots on the convoy, and use your shield blast thing (hold down triangle) to take down the shields of the lead cars. It's pretty easy and doesn't take too long. Only takes me about 1-2k gatling gun ammo per go, and you can refuel with the traveling trader in between.
