How to unlock the The Underdog achievement in Cities: Skylines - Definitive Guide

Quickest way to get this achievement:

•Start up any scenario
•Delete all the roads on the map (if any)
^if none just built a section of a road then just place wind turbines till you're out of money.
•Once all that's done just set the fast forward to x3 and just wait till the failed scenario comes up then choose restart and do the same thing 4 more times. (Confirmed from Jumbo91375)


☆Jimbo91375 confirmed that you can restart the same scenario and get the achievement.
☆When doing a scenario you can do all the different types of disasters to earn the corresponding achievements for them.
☆The "What The ?" Achievement is special tornado that randomly pops up so that can take a couple hours or even more. I'll recommend doing that on a regular map, a dummy map, instead of your main map.
☆The disasters don't start right as you choose them (there will be a cursor placement where you want the disaster to be at. There will be a message about a meteor, tornado, earthquake, etc coming in. The bottom of your screen will show yellow and black markers on top of it like you're about to destroy something.

Can confirm you can do it on same scenario. I did your method on the floodland map and just kept selecting restart after failing. Popped after fifth notification.

easy unlock tip,

save right before you lose, as close to $0 as possible.

I was able to save at $-45 before i lost, so all i had to do was reload my save and i instant lose

Another quick option I did.

Load up Alpine Villages Scenario.
Delete the highway connected roads.
Dezone the map
Set speed to x3
Wait.

Then repeat!

Already two good guides here but thought I'd give another option for anyone who has the Green Cities DLC, and you can literally get the achievement in about 2 minutes at most.

There is a scenario added with Green Cities called Clean Up Crew, and one of the losing conditions is to have a population less than 1.

Simply start up that scenario, click and hold Left Stick cn_LSc to move up to 3x speed. Press X cn_X to open the demolish tool, and press D-pad right cn_right three times to maximise the area of effect. You can then simply hold down the A cn_A button and brush over the entire map area to demolish all of the houses and roads. The population will plummet to zero in no time at all, and you can then just restart the scenario and repeat another four times.

Thanks! I spent more time waiting for it to load than it took to actually finish with this trick, haha.

N.B. Losing the same scenario five time counts.

1. Start the 'Ferry Empire' scenario.
Lose conditions: have no money left

2. Reduce taxes for all zones down to 1%.
3. Turn all policies that cost money to run.
4. Turn the speed to x3.
5. You will run out of money very quickly and lose the scenario.
6. Repeat this four more times.

This Achievement is for losing 10 Scenarios. This is pretty simple. You just need to fail 10 UNIQUE Scenarios. This is easily combined with "The Creator" Where you create 10 Scenarios. Create 10 Scenarios with win trigger to play X amount of weeks and the lose trigger to have less than $0. Waste your money in all of them to fail to unlock this. Also do not forget to select the "Publish" Radio button to add it to your available Scenarios.

IMPORTANT!!! Your Scenario MUST have a Win and Lose Trigger to count towards these achievements.
