How to unlock the Hard Nut achievement in AFL Live - Definitive Guide

Hey guys, just had a PM regarding this achievement so I figured I'd chuck up a guide for it also.

I found doing this with a second controller to be the most pain free way of getting it done. It's obviously possible without this method, but if you're after an easy 30G - I certainly think this'll be your best bet.

My way of doing it was this.

Set up a game with two controllers, I went Collingwood against Gold Coast as they'll have light-bodied defenders. I then made deliberate efforts to score points with my team, to give the second controller a kick-out attempt.

I simply hit the RB on the second controller to have them play on, then charge in with my achievement-getting account, and just hold sprint while I bump the defender head on. If done right, I do believe the defender should go to ground - for the sake of the exercise, I would only count the bumps that send the opponent to ground.

To bump, according to the manual, you just hold the right stick in the direction of the player you're making contact with. And I'm not entirely sure if it is necessary, but I like to hold down sprint when I'm hitting the contest just to be sure my hit has that little bit of extra 'oomph'.

It's then a case of just rinse and repeat, and hopefully in no time you should have racked up 20 solid bumps, and the achievement should unlock.

It seems that the heavy bump only counts if you a) knock the ball out of the opponent's hands and b) knock them to the ground. I had easily made 30 or 40 bumps that made them lose possession, but only got the achievement after I knocked someone to ground.

is this one only for within 1 game or does it stack as you go across multiple games??

I would have to assume it stacks. When I had it pop for me, I'd only executed probably ten, or so, bumps in that particular game.

To get this the easy way, create a single match and set up the opposition to be another controller. During the match, when the opponent gets the ball, run towards them and use the  to bump them. I’m fairly sure knocking the player to the ground counts as a heavy bump. The other bonus with this achievement is that it doesn’t all have to be done in a single game, so you don’t have to stress if you don’t get it the first time you try to.

The easiest discovered way to do this so far is play with 2 controllers (1 on each team), keep giving the other team free-kicks and when they are lining up with the man on the mark, wait for the whistle to blow. When it blows, have a man bump the player with the . Repeat 20 times and the achievement will yours.
