hittheroadbucky Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Sorry I have another question ? One of the last trophies I need for the platinum is Cosmic Completionist (discover all named locations). I got Beam Me Up back in 2016, and then I got From The Land Up Over and Eridian Explorer yesterday (with the same character). I went through all the places on the map that the trophy was said to include and it’s still not popped. I’ve even been through Pity’s Fall twice just in case I missed something and been to the weird place in Tychos Ribs that most people miss. Will I need to run through the game again? Or is there somewhere else that I might have missed? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) This is another infamously buggy trophy so all you can do is revisit every single location and tick them off as you go but if that doesn't work, your only option is to start over from scratch with a new character .

The_Mighty_Ducks Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Just follow a YouTube guide. Don't restart the game, you're just missing something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hittheroadbucky Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Will I need to go through the locations tied to the other three trophies? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because one of them could have glitched and not fully registered. There's a location on the Drakensberg that's really glitchy and only seems to register if you walk to a specific spot.

hittheroadbucky Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Was that engineering? ? I went up there twice last night to make sure it was discovered and it came up with the name so I just assumed I’d already been there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hittheroadbucky Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Thank you! I might try there again and see if anything pops. Tempted to just run through with a new char though. All my maps look cleared so I have no idea what I’m missing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieselmanchild Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Does anybody know if Cosmic Completionist is accumulative over multiple playthroughs? I was unable to get the Beam Me Up trophy in Normal mode. It seems that playing in co-op during the part where you go to the missable Eye of Helios area fucked up the trophy. I’m wondering if it would be possible to go into TVHM, run through the story again solo to pop Beam Me Up trophy, and whether this would also pop Cosmic Completionist? Or do I literally have to go through the entire list of locations all over again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically it is but if one of the sub-trophies bugs out, the odds are low it will pop in any subsequent playthroughs when using the character it glitched on so you're better off just cutting your losses and starting a new character from scratch. Co-op is infamous for breaking various trophies in every Borderlands game released to date so you're better off playing solo unless you hit a brick wall and need urgent help.

Damn, this sucks big time. ? I am still holding out hope for now, because the area that I’m certain glitched out on me is a one-time-access only room where the Eye of Helios is. It’s not on the regular map, and so I’m hoping when I go there again I might be able to get those locations ticked off. I still need to reach level 50 anyways, so playing up to that point on TVHM won’t be a total waste of time. If I did have to start a new character from scratch, I’m hoping that I would be able to pop Cosmic Completionist immediately after popping Beam Me Up. This option would still suck, but not be nearly as bad as having to finish the entire game on a brand new character & to rediscover every single named location. In this scenario I would only have to worry about the Helios Space Station locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All locations have to be discovered with 1 character so starting a new one, also means redoing this trophy entirely from scratch because nothing except Badass Ranks and Golden Keys transfer between characters.

Dangit! I figured, but wasn’t sure how the trophy is tracked so I was holding out hope that after popping Beam Me Up the game would recognize I have all 3 location trophies on my profile, and this would trigger Cosmic Completionist.

dieselmanchild Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Update: For anybody in a similar situation in the future, I can confirm your progress carries over to TVHM! I played up until the Zarpedon fight, being careful to stay solo at all times, and as soon as I killed her and entered the Hyperion Contingency Armory or whatever it is called, the location was discovered and both Beam Me Up & Cosmic Completionist popped instantly. So be aware - playing the Eye of Helios/Zarpedon section of the game in co-op risks bugging out your location trophies if your partner runs ahead of you into the missable areas post-Zarpedon fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say that mate, everything you said was pretty much in line with everything I read when researching this. Regardless, I appreciate you responding to my question. Despite the fact this glitch has happened to quite a lot of people, there’s a surprising lack of information when it comes to solutions, and it sounds like it is a coin toss and could go either way. Some people have had to start new characters from scratch unfortunately. Hopefully this thread can help someone else in the future who has the same problem. I posted a comment on the guide as well so the author can update the guide with a warning about potential for co-op to glitch out the locations trophies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wajbsb Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Completing all the main and side missions (apart from the invincible sentinel mission, the last side mission) gave me all the locations trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welsh_Bush Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Hi all. Can I complete this trophy on my first playthrough? I will be doing TVHM anyway but would like his out of the way now if I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a little buggy if you play co-op though because of your partner discovers a location it doesn’t add to your tally 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobaltTangerine Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 I finished my first play through doing all side missions and had no location trophies unlocked. And I have no grey areas on any of my maps (apparently this doesn't mean much). I did a lot of coop, so I can only assume that was one of the issues. Following a guide, I have unlocked one of the location trophies so far. Hopefully TVHM going solo will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing in Co-Op is ill advised when going for the Location trophies in any of the Borderlands games, because it's well known for glitching them and various other trophies.

Yeah, I played the first two games solo because of this but I heard the issues were not in the Pre Sequel. Plus I was playing as Claptrap going for his Action Skill trophy, so a few of those are necessary in co-op. I didn't have any issues with the side missions, but I had to redo a few, like the Ghostbusters mission, to get the side quests trophy. This is one of those Plats I've got about 75% completed but getting tired of the trophy jank and may just have to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
