How to unlock the Choose the Impossible achievement in BioShock 2 - Definitive Guide

Alright so there are a number of ways to earn xp, if u do not want to take the boosting path (no offense to Buga75 returns of course).

ok the good thing about Bioshock 2's multiplayer is that it's kind of like Modern Warefare2, you DO NOT need to win to earn xp, just do certain things while the match is going on. Bioshock 2 offers about 10-12 different ways of earning xp.

10 points for every kill
5 points for assits
100 points for killing a Big Daddy
50 points for becoming a Big Daddy
10 points for each Adam vial you find (the red ones that look like eve hypo)
10 points for Hacking a Turret or Vending Machine
75-500 points for completing Trials - this can be simple tasks like killing a big daddy with a shotgun or melee killing someone who is on fire. (thanks to whoever left the comment)
You can earn a Max of 200 points from your match standing, so the better you do of course the more adam you earn.
50 points for getting a killstreak, i'm not sure how many kills this requires
10 points for each research photo you take
50 points for capturing a little sister
3 points per second for holding the little sister in ADAM grab (guidebook give me that info)

~The Strategy~

Bioshock 2's multiplayer has several games modes

Survival of the Fittest (Free for all)
Civil War (Team Deathmatch)
Capture the Little Sister (CTF)
Turf War (where you have 3 points to hold onto for a certain amount of time)
Adam Grab and Team Adam Grab (Basically Halo 3's oddball, you hold a little sister for the longest time possible)
and Last Splicer Standing (basically you only get 1 life and once u die thats it till next round)

1) When trying to go for level 40, I DO NOT recommend playing Turf War, Team Adam Grab or Last Splicer Standing, UNLESS you have a good enough team, if you never get the little sister then the game will end quickly without much chance to get xp from it. The point is to try and earn as much Adam as you can during a match.

2) Game Modes like Civil War and Capture the Little Sister can last for the longest amount of time. The goal while the match goes on is try and earn every single piece of point you can. Hack every turret or vending you come across (10 points there) When finding an enemy try to kill them as best as you can, if your not able to then try and run away, a lot times (at least for me) the enemy doesn't allows follow you because chances are he is hurt too. If you come across a firefight with enemies and your team, try to land at least a melee hit or a bullet on the enemy evening if your not going to kill him, this will still earn you 5 points. Plus even if your team doesn't win, if you can still get 1st or 2nd place among the ranks you'll earn 150 or 200 adam for it. So winning if not everything to ranking up

3) Pick up any red vials of Adam you see, a lot of people don't seem to care about them but hey its a quick 10 points toward leveling up. Also research every dead enemy body you come across, again a quick 10 points, plus it helps with killing them.

4) Try to become the Big Daddy whenever you can, if your not able to, don't waste your time trying to kill him first (I mean make sure you help take him down, but don't solely focus on him) try to kill him when he is near death, that way if you land the killshot that earns you 100 points (this happens less more than often, but hey in every Civil War, there is usually 2 Big Daddies at most)

5) I can't offer any great tips on earning kills, the only strategy I find helps is use Aero Dash with a Shotgun, hit them with Aero Dash, shotgun them, then melee right away if they are still alive, this will usually kill them right after the melee, as long as your quick enough. Getting kills comes with luck or skill at times, depending on the person you go up against, so get those research photos to help with this.

6) Trials can be your biggest help at leveling up sometimes. Once you earn trials at level 3, start working on them, several of them are simple like land electric bolt 30 times on an enemy or take 30 research pics overtime. Try to complete as many trials as you can, cause they can drastically increase your total adam for that match if you end up completing several at one time.

Sorry for the Length lol. Hope this guide can help offer some advice on leveling up, if you try to pick up as many little points during a match as you can you can earn roughly 600-900 adam a game. I've been playing multiplayer (according to the statistic's page in the game) for about 6-8 hours and I'm already level 18. If you feel I need to add anything or forgot something let me know

The most Adam you can get is 500 from one trial. Unlike most of the other trials though they're relatively easy. It could range from simply incerating someone on a patch of oil to taking down a Bid Daddy on your own.

capture the sister you get +10 for the player kill, when it shows your total points it includes an additional 100 for taking the Bid Daddy down (or 200 if you get both).

killstreaks are awarded for every 3 kills without dying, if anyone was still wondering.

i've also noticed that you're awarded adam based on how long you held the little sister in adam grab variations. i believe the ratio is adam to second held ratio is 2:1 but i'm not positive.

Just for those looking for more information, I've played four hours, almost all of it in Civil War, and I'm Rank 14. I'm not really trying that hard, and I tend to be okay with trading kills, so my KDR(1:1) and stuff like that isn't the greatest. I've only won 12 of the 35 games I've played, but I hack, research and find ADAM vials as often as I can.

At the rate I'm going, I'll hit level 40 in about 24 hours of playing overall, and I'm probably only averaging around 400 ADAM per match. The biggest thing about team matches is that your standing is always either first or second, which is at least 150 points right there.

Also, some of the trials can be farmed(like picking up 5 EVE Hypos and 5 Ammo Crates in one life, it takes around 20 seconds to do those at a vending machine).

If it helps, I am currently rank 38 and have been playing turf war and capture the sister quite a bit and it's been working well. If you work on a certain trial each game you get quite a lot of adam at the end, think ive been averaging about 800 adam per game.

I managed to hit 40 in 26 hours, no boosting. Team ADAM Grab was a HUGE help. Finding the dead end corners or topside hideyholes in the levels and exploiting them once you grab a Little Sister helps your Adam pile up super fast. Of course, it helps if you have a good team that knows what they're doing around you instead of running off like maniacs when they should be protecting you.

correct me if I am wrong but you get 150xp even if you lose and do nothing, so why cant you fill up a lobby with boosters and everybody just do nothing for hours on end, wouldn't that mean everybody gets 150 per round over and over again?
so if that is true everybody just idle boosts say 10 hours-20 hours and everybody ranks up and they do nothing? if you get kicked for inactivity just rubber band it.
all this turret and hacking seems like a lot of effort for nothing, if I am correct.
would this method work?

to confirm you do get 150xp for losing and 200xp for winning.
average people get 400xp per match playing legit and would take around 24 hours to get rank 40, so by that ratio after 50 or so hours of idle boosting you get all the rank achievements without lifting a finger. most people have played some games so you shouldn't need that many hours. I am unsure if the whole lobby idle boosts what would happen if it was a 0-0 draw, does the whole lobby get the 150 adam minimum. so I am thinking get a party together for 4-5 x 10 hour sessions of idle boosting. if some people want to get kills that's fine as it will speed things up, at least for that person and the winning team. idle method of boosting while you sleep. is this whole idea crazy or genius?

While there is no idle kick, it does kick you if you don't pick a loadout.

Also, when playing Cap the Sis, the Big Daddy is only worth 10 (or at least it says "____ killed ____ +10" instead of "+100")

Yea, ADAM vials add up, I have about.... 150, so that's 1,150 ADAM, adds up. Hacks and Research Photots do too, combined, I have 5,000 ADAM from that, which is a nice amount.

I would disagree with not playing ADAM Grab, I've gotten 700 - 1000 ADAM (least being 500) when playing. If you never get the Lil Sis though, you probably won't do to well.

Lastly, you need 97,000 ADAM to hit Rank 40.

A great layout that I found for earning kills is then nail gun with magazine size upgrade, shotgun with rate of fire upgrade, Insect Swarm and Electro Bolt, master researcher, speedy recovery, and metabolic EVE. Use the Insect Swarm to blind your enemy for a few seconds which will give your nail gun time to warm up and get a few hits in before they can see again. The magazine size will allow you to get about 2-3 kills before you have to reload. Save the shotgun as a backup for when you run out of ammo for the nail gun. Use Electro Bolt when your opponent is facing you so it will stop them long enough so that you can get a good hit on them with Insect Swarm. The tonics should be easy enough to understand. Remember that you can melee the bees away if you are hit with Insect Swarm. Even though most people know this, most people tend to forget because when they are blinded and getting hit they seem to panic.

I believe holding the little sister for 1 second = 3 Exp (I held it for 3 seconds in 1 game and got 9 Exp).

As for getting kills my good set up was a Grenade Launcher (No equipment), Machine Gun (Stabilizer when available), Ignite, Freeze (For speeding up hacking), Speedy Recovery (This helps a huge amount when trying to go for kills), Speedy Research (Getting Damage Bonuses helps out a lot), and Security Evasion (To allow you to move around corners without instantly getting hit).

To kill a splicer it takes one hit of Ignite and 2 close hits with a Grenade Launcher. With a damage bonus, it takes 2 near hits with a Grenade Launcher. Also, I would suggest against using Homing Missiles when they become available (For they are a lot slower than your regular shot and you can't place your shots where you want) and this also includes the Velocity Boost as well (By then you should already be quite use to the arch of the weapon, and favor it instead of a straight shot)

As for the game type, I personally enjoyed Capture the Sister (Though Civil War is a close second). Both have a long game length (Ideal for getting a bunch of kill streaks and hacking), however Capture the Sister has a faster pace of game (Since it's pretty obvious where people will be going). Also, with the interchanging rounds you there are numerous opportunities to hack (Since all machines reset at the beginning of each round), kill big daddies or become one.

I posted a guide on how to boost but it wasnt well received. People are so ungratefull these days. If you want 2,800 xp a match, i have seen my friend get 3,200 using this method.

You can only do this trick on Farmers Market there is a vending machine that is infront of a little mini wall you can hack behind the wall and have the other person hold the little sister to trigger the trap. Doing this with speedy hack will net you close to 3000 xp a game if done without mistakes.

Credit goes to EL MACHO46 for finding this.

UPDATE!

I was recently finishing up the dlc for this game and me and my friend XRL8ing666 found a trick above all others for this game. It may or may not be common knowledge yet but on the map Smugglers Hideout there is a gold mine of an adam trick.

Go to the vending machine near where the little sister spawns and have one guy stand near the left side of the vending machine and the one hacking it on the right side. You can hack here without having the bomb hurt either of you because it falls into the water. Over 3000 adam a game with ease here.

Again this is a boosting method so if you are anti boosting im sorry but boosting is legal get over it.

People who voted negatively probably realized that this was only a 1-way boost, netting only 1 player 3000 ADAM. So in reality it would only be a 1500 average between both players, per game, if they were to switch-off. If that's not the case, then you simply suck at wording your guide and should have taken the time to consider how you phrased things.

So if you dont like boosting, you either A have way too much free time or B dont play a wide variety of games, or even C you are a ridiculously good video gamer IMO.

I say thank you, hopefully this cuts down the time it will take me to reach 50 PEACE

If anybody is interested I have been crunching some numbers and have worked out the following.

to reach level 40 is 97,000 adam/xp

and on average with speedy hacker (gained at rank 24) through turret boosting you gain:
7,750 per 1 hour
15,500 per 2 hours
23,250 per 3 hours
31,000 per 4 hours
38,750 per 5 hours
26,500 per 6 hours

so basically from 0-40 you are looking at 16-17 hours of turret boosting sessions.
I just wanted to put a number on it for you guys who are just starting out at what you would be looking at to achieve this.

(without the rank 24 speedy hack you gain about 5,500xp per 2 hours of turret boosting)

There is the list of ranking amounts of xp, (It is the 2nd solutions on TA for the rank 40 achievement) by referring to this combined with my estimations you can track your progress and work out your total remaining boosting time required from the rank that you are currently on. That way you don't join a session that lasts much longer than you need to be in. After all those hours im guessing you wont want to do any more than nessacery.

In BioShock 2, ADAM is a green liquid in its raw form that is the stem cells that are gained from a parasitic type of Sea Slug. These are gained by matches in BioShock 2 multiplayer.

•Level 11- Requires 10500 ADAM and will unlock the backstabber.
•Level 12- Requires 12000 ADAM and will unlock telekinesis.
•Level 13- Requires 13500 ADAM and will give the tommy gun clip increase upgrade.
•Level 14- Requires 15000 ADAM and will give the nail gun.
•Level 15- Requires 16500 ADAM and will unlock the metabolic EVE.
•Level 16- Requires 18000 ADAM and will give the Houdini Plasmid.
•Level 17- Requires 19500 ADAM and will give the grenade launcher homing grenade upgrade.
•Level 18- Requires 21000 ADAM and will give the elephant gun.
•Level 19- Requires 22500 ADAM and will unlock sabotage.
•Level 20- Requires 25500 ADAM and will unlock the insect swarm and the gold circle membership.
Level 21-30
The upper mid-range levels will require a good amount of ADAM to level.

•Level 21- Requires 28000 ADAM and will give the crossbow damage upgrade and Jacob Norris’ final audio diary.

so by comparing your rank with the list of xp in this solution and multiplying 7,750 per hour, you can work out exactly how many more of the turret boosting sessions you will need to do to achieve rank 40.
0
0
By Blazing Noble on 13 Feb 2015 00:47
for example
I am on rank 32 (61,000)
so I know that I need another 36,000 to get to rank 40 (97,000),
so that means I need to do no more than 5 hours more turret boosting.
(as 7,750 x 5 = 38,750).

I hope this has been of some help to you guys.

if anybody is interested I have been crunching some numbers and have worked out the following.

to reach level 40 is 97,000 adam/xp

and on average with speedy hacker (gained at rank 24) through turret boosting you gain:
7,750 per 1 hour
15,500 per 2 hours
23,250 per 3 hours
31,000 per 4 hours
38,750 per 5 hours
26,500 per 6 hours

so basically from 0-40 you are looking at 16-17 hours of turret boosting sessions.
I just wanted to put a number on it for you guys who are just starting out at what you would be looking at to achieve this.

(without the rank 24 speedy hack you gain about 5,500xp per 2 hours of turret boosting)

Just wanted to add on to Noble's great info above. If you're looking to complete the DLC too (Specifically the Reincarnation Achievement), then you need to hit rank 50 for the resurrection achievement.


Rank 50 requires a total of 66,000 ADDITIONAL XP according to the wiki. Ranks 41-49 are 6000 each and Rank 50 needs 12,000 additional XP. (So a total of 163,000 ADAM to fully complete the multiplayer).

This is just a simple boosting method to get the level achievements quicker.
1. Get a few other people who want to boost.
2. Play ADAM Grab (Not the team one)
3. Try to pick a level with at least 3 turrets (So up to 6 people may boost)
4. If you do not get a level with 3 then just have the 2 other players trade off on holding the little sister for points. (If you have 6 people.)
5. Get 2 people per turret.
6. Trade off hacking it for 10 points every 5 seconds-ish
7. Make sure everyone has Speed Hacker (I forgot what its called) to make it go by faster.

[EDIT:] If nobody touches the little sister everybody gets the bonus points for a win, because the game results in a equal tie.

If for whatever reason, you want to boost and you don't have Speed Hacker you could always boost w/o it. Yes, it will be slower but eventually you will unlock Speed Hacker and then you're all good.

GOOD LUCK!!!

Feel free to message me if anything was not clear enough.

I throughly enjoyed playing this. I rarely play multiplayer but bio shock is exceptional. I knew this was gonna take some time, It took me 20 hours and 200 matches before I had the required 97,000 adam (xp) Like the others say pick up all red vials, hack everything, research everyone. For the tonics I generally used the expert research, fast hack and then swapped the third tonic between health or adam or whatever else decent i was unlocking as I was ranking up. I found using electric shock to stun an enemy and then a smooth head shot with the elephant gun netted me the most kills, but to be honest I changed the weapons lots so I could try and complete the trials. the trials ranged from easy to challenging and some you ll naturally get anyway. If you dont bother with the trials then just expect to be playing for alot more than 20 hours. (Some trials net you 500 xp) This really is a game to saviour, enjoy it. Some matches I entered and people were boosting, fair enough but This game doesn t get boring ! One last note I found the ressurection tonic unlocked at level 40 to be quite useless, stick with death trap for extra kills : ) And as you level up you will start winnging games, getting more kills and kicking ass as your upgrades get significantly better. : )

Each rank unlocks a weapon, a plasmid or tonic which can be used to help you get more kills. Rank 40 requires 97,000 Adam. The choice i would suggest for getting there quickly is to use the Machine Gun with increased damage and crossbow with increased rate of fire. Go for decreased research and quicker health regeneration. If u r after Adam Vial u can use leg up on many maps to find hidden vials in hard to reach places and use death trap(rank 38) and whatever else u prefer. its the way i ranked up quickly. try researching everything u see, hack everything and do as many of the trials that u can. Some of them r hard to get and so its best to just focus on the ones u think that u can get easily enough.

If you have someone that has the achievement and doesn't mind helping you. Have him use telekinesis in front of a vending machine and then hack it. He should pick up the mine that pops out. If you get it right this will allow you to hack the machine over and over again and you can earn up to 2500-2700ADAM per match as apposed to the 1500-1700ADAM from turret hacking, since you don't have to wait for the other player to hack the machine after you.

>> Legit Choose the Impossible achievement solution only <<

I think that the best way to obtain this achievement legit is to play Civil War how much as you can. Survival of the Fittest is much more frustrating and less effective, Capture the Sister takes too long. Others are much more less effective.
One Civil War match takes about 5-7 minutes, and you get at least 150 ADAM for completing each (if you aren't in the winning team) or 200 ADAM (if your team win tha match) even if you don't do anything else during this time.
You can easily gain about 350-500 ADAM if your stats are good (10 ADAM per each kill, photo, hack & vials, 50 ADAM for killing streak, 5 ADAM for kill assist, 100 ADAM for Big Daddy kill and 50 ADAM for each being Big Daddy) or much more if you complete some trials (additional 75-500 ADAM for each).
I've gained level 40 (97.000 ADAM) in about 25 hours total playing time without boosting at all (+ about 3 hours waiting/lobby time).

* If you want to leave a negative vote, please tell me why, so I can fix my solution if there are any mistakes in it.

hey we where boosting experience and we hacked turret. then someone disconnected and a level 50 joined. he learned us a new way of boosting. i forgot his name but it started with kris. credits to him. and to the person who explained everything. i forgot his name but i think it was potential91 who explained it to the rest of the boosters and the level 50 random who showed him. anyway you should known turrets is faster. you should only use this boost when theres only 2 turrets in a map
1 turret boost give 1700 if fast. 2 turret boost is 3400. the vending boost give you 3000 boost and your partner 200 first boost and vice versa second boost. 3200 adam against 3400. but 3200 is still better then running around and do trials if theres only 2 turrets use this. to the boost details now

how to boost it:

* first check the guides how to make a group. (adam grab boost)
* you need telekinesis
* try to find a vending machine not far of the little sister

here how its work

person A hacks the vending. it turns red. person B runs to the vending and a second later he press L2. and hold L2. if done correctly person B is holding the vending machine bomb now. person B moves closer to the vending BUT NOT TO CLOSE and stand before the vending (the part where the clown is drawn) person B keeps holding the L2 button (telekinesis tonic). you will not run out of eve. it will go to zero your eve but if your keep holding it it wont cancel the telekinesis. person A hacks now for a full 10 min. he should have 3000 if everythings go well. if there is a second map with 2 turrets person A switch with B

last note: this can take a couple of tries if doing this boost for the first time. expect you explode a few times before you mastered this boost

positive points.
there are alot of vending machines. you can find many.

negative points

personnaly i didnt like this way of boosting. because it was not organised and the biggest negative point if doing vending boost your stuck with your partner. because if you hack your partner owns the next hack.

This is the highest rank in multiplayer. Naturally, as you level up, the gap between ranks become wider. The score used for this is ADAM. ADAM can be obtained through various means. However, this will take some grinding. This may be achieved in 15-30 hours of game play. Here are the ranks and scores:
  • Rank 10: 9000 ADAM.
  • Rank 20: 25500 ADAM.
  • Rank 30: 53000 ADAM.
  • Rank 40: 97000 ADAM.
On average, you'll earn 300-600 per match (in "Survival of the Fittest"), 3000-5000 ADAM per hour. Here are some tips:
  1. Research everyone.
  2. Hack every machine.
  3. Aim for killstreaks.
  4. Collect ADAM Vials (red liquid bottles)
  5. Be a Big Daddy.
  6. KILL a Big Daddy.
Realise that, you get the same amount of ADAM per kill as you get for researching a killed player (10 ADAM). The thing is that the number of kills defines your place (1st, 2nd. etc) at the end of the match, and you'll be awarded a certain amount of ADAM depending on that (200 for 1st place, the rest is defined by the total number of players).

There are by the way, two commonly followed boosting methods:

1) Taking turns hacking turrets: Simply put, the boosting method is based on taking turns hacking Turrets. You must do this "ADAM Grab" (i.e. NOT "Team ADAM Grab"!) since it has six-player only gamemode (i.e. you + 5 boosters) and it lasts for 10 mins. Each map has 2-3 turrets, so it's very possible. To make it faster, equip the "Speedy Hacker" Tonic (unlocked at Rank 24). In ideal circumstances, you can make up to 1700-1800 ADAM per match! That said, it IS a time-consuming boosting method (13-15 hours), but time will fly by quickly because you're rank up fairly quickly and everytime you rank up, there is a cutscene announcing the new weapons and Tonics/Plasmids you unlocked. Here is the detailed guide on how to boost (credits go to Tinytone for this guide!)

2) Vending Machine hacks with Winter Blaster (Credits go to Terminator for this method!): This method relies on the tonics "Speedy Hacker" (again, unlocked at level 24) and "Winter Blaster." It involves taking turns (alternating) hacking then freezing the vending machine (i.e. one hack and one freeze per person per turn). Terminator explains below:

Player 1 freezes the machine and Player 2 hacks it then you switch so Player 2 does the freezing and Player 1 does the hacking. You carry on alternating like that until the match ends. If you end up on a map with almost no turrets and Vending Machines then work on challenges and collecting the ADAM vials that are lying around .

The latter boosting method is a relatively recently discovered method that seems to have become the more popular choice. However, your choice of boosting method is entirely up to you!

Applies to all online achievements not related to Big Daddy and Little Sister:
It’s stupid to look for someone for multiplayer now, especially since the Russian version from 1C remains without patches and you can only play with the same “lucky” owners of a copy from 1C. But if you still want to complete the game 100%, then there is a way out!
First, you need to have 4 keys for GFWL games (4 - because I came across information that 1 key cannot be activated on several accounts. I didn’t check it myself.) Next, in addition to the existing Xbox account, we create 3 more. I’ll immediately make a reservation about the system on which we played all “perversions”)) - Win 7x64, six-core Phenom 1075, 8Gb of memory, video Radeon 7870. Create three more accounts in Windows (Start-> Control Panel-> Accounts and Family Safety-> User Accounts.) Next, one by one We log into each account and activate the game. At the same time, you can immediately set the graphics settings to the minimum and enable windowed mode; in full screen I had constant crashes. After that, you can log in to the cartoon under each account. To play, you need to select the “Capture ADAM” mode, the only mode for four, in the rest you need at least six. Well, the most important thing is that after the start of the match, under each account, you need to select ammunition for each player, otherwise they simply will not appear on the map. And then we run on the map, we hack everything that can be hacked, collect everything that is collected, kill everyone who gets in the way and explore them (by default, the F button), perform tests, and 4 minutes before the end we grab Sister (she also gets experience). and that's it. Almost everything...
For three achievements ( Disgusting Frankenstein , "Mr. Bubbles-- No!" , Mother Goose ) you need a minimum of 6 players...
