How to unlock the Bullet dodger achievement in Call of Juarez: The Cartel - Definitive Guide

This is done on the disco level, chapter 8.

You will need to dodge the rockets from the chopper above you and from the car your chasing as about halfway through the chase you will see a red leser from the trunk of the car, thats a rocket coming your way so watch out!

I found staying as far back as possible from the car works best, and don't forget to stay on the very left lane of the freeway to stay out of the sight of the chopper. It normally shoots rockets on the far right or middle lane so left side is safest.

When you see the red laser from the car just bake and let them shoot it, sometimes they hit the ground ahead of you sometimes they'll destroy some random car but you should be fine, of couse if somehow they do get you, just restart checkpoint, you will still unlock the achievement, as soon as the cutscene opens.

Good luck and hope this helped :)

I'm not sure about coop as I haven't even played the campaign in coop except the first chapter, I'm guessing only on eof you can get it, try switching places otherwise just od it solo ;)

Wish I had a "red leser" in the back of my trunk...:)
Anyhow, thanks for letting us know the Achievement pops at the cut scene, and to reset if it doesnt.
Positive from me!

Got if first try, thanks. I stayed way back and on the left like you said. Milk the timer they give you to catch up. I had to dodge maybe two lasers. Thumbs up :)

Easily the hardest achievement in the game. I've done this several times already where I was reasonably sure I was never hit with rockets, and it still hasn't unlocked.

You'd think a game that goes out of its way to add achievement trackers could add a simple checkbox to the pause menu for shit like this.

I'm sorry it hasn't unlocked for you, strange as the achievement isn't known to be glithcy.

What is it I should bake? Like bread or a nice sponge?

This is not difficult just fucking stupid. I think if you take any damage as a result of any of the rockets it voids this. I have done this twice and was never hit by a rocket.

This is at the end of chapter 8. Achievement unlocks when the end of level cutscene starts.

Very easy way to get this achievement is to hug the left side of the highway and stay back until the GET CLOSER! warning appears on the screen. When the timer starts to get low, drive up a little closer, then back up again to reset it. Doing it this way you’ll never have any rockets shot at you from the car you’re chasing. And staying on the left side avoids the helicopter rockets.

This can be unlocked only in Chapter 8. During the pursuit the suspect's vehicle will be in front shooting at you. Whenever the vehicle has a red laser pointed at you make sure you move from left to right ( & ) in order to avoid them. When you get off the highway (end of pursuit) the trophy will pop up.

The “Disco Level” is Chapter 8. This wont be obtainable until near the levels end when you are chasing the enemy vehicle on the highway. After entering the highway, hug the left side to avoid the helicopters rockets. When close to then enemy vehicle the passenger in the will shoot RPG’s at you. Before the enemy does so, he will aim at you with a red laser sight. Making this easily telegraphed. It’s easiest to just keep your distance, if enough distance is kept the enemy wont even shoot a single RPG. Eventually the enemy vehicle will break down on the side of the highway, approach the vehicle and a cut scene will start. If the achievement does not pop here, immediately press start and quit to the main menu. Select continue to attempt again as needed.

This is chapter 8. When we pursue the enemy car. A helicopter will appear - at this time, take to the left edge of the road! After the flight, the enemy will try to hit us from the pursued vehicle with an RPG. Just keep your distance and weave around so his missiles will hit other cars. It shouldn’t be difficult, I personally got it on hard, without thinking about the achievement at all!
