How to unlock the Tooled Up achievement in Crysis 2 - Definitive Guide

WARNING: servers for this game were scheduled to shut down on Oct 11 2018. It appears they are still up as of October 2020.

Alright guys, this worked for me and a couple others who I shared it with and seems to be a workaround for this glitched achievement as well as a way to get it early.

I was level 43 with only c4, M20 14 Gauss and x-43 Mike as weapons left to unlock. It should work with anything as long as you are at least level 39 and have at least 1 weapon unlock coins (the more you have the faster it is).

So basically, you will want to buy one of the weapons, then as soon as you have done that back out of multiplayer by pressing B until you are back in the main menu. Once you are there, load up multiplayer again and you will notice you have your weapon unlock coins and the weapon you just bought is no longer unlocked. So do this for all 3 weapons. I had to do it 2 times for all 3 weapons before it finally poped!

NOTE:
I don't know if it works if you unlock and equip (using X), so to be on the safe side I would just unlock the weapon with A and then follow the guide. Also you can do this at any level over 39 as long as you have not used up all your unlock tokens and have at least 1 weapon left to unlock. Good luck guys, hope it works for everyone as well as it did for me and my friend!

NOTE 2:
From the comments it seems this only works with the Disk version of the game and not the Games on Demand version.

Also for anyone with the Limited Edition of the game, please refer to the solution put up by "WhataLump". To sum it up, if you have the Limited Edition version of the game, you will either need to activate the Limited Edition content included in your LE copy of Crysis 2 or you will need to follow the guide put up by "WhataLump".

So, you're saying use the tokens to unlock a couple of weapons, exit and go back and the weapons and tokens will be reset when I get there; allowing me to go through all the weapons to try unlocking the one that's glitched?

Yes, I used one weapon token at a time, unlocked a weapon, went back and then did another. did that 2 times and it unlocked. I guess the game considers you still have the weapon even though it resets itself by going to menu. You have to be at least level 39 because all the weapons are accessible at level 39. I was level 43 when I did it.

Waited until I was level 40, unlocked weapon (without equipping it) and backed out - did it for my final 3 weapons and then the achievement popped.
You, sir, are a genius.
Thanks, Davis.

I've already rebooted, hoping that would have solved the problem so, it'll be a few boosting sessions before I can give this a try. I'll let you know if it goes as planned.

Was at level 39 with 2 weapon unlocks. Still working as of latest Dec 2011 patch. This should be the top solution since even if it doesn't work the first time, you still have the weapon unlocks.

I've got the Majestic, C4, Gauss, Marshall, L-Tag & Mike left to unlock at level 39 with three tokens. I've "unlocked" all of them at least 4 times a piece and still no achievement. Any ideas fellas? I was really hoping this would work for me.

Now I've really screwed it up. I popped the disc into my second xbox, just to see if that would help. Well after using the tokens and exiting back to the main menu, and then back to multiplayer, I found that my tokens remained spent! I'll give another go later tonight on my primary xbox, with the one remaining token I have but, I won't hold my breath.

Got my unlock at 43, I too had to do it twice for each weapon I needed (c4, Gauss). But after I backed out the last time it popped. Thanks for the great guide worked like a charm.

By Test the God on 18 Jan 2012 01:11
If I had to guess I would say it could be possible, given that you have enough tokens, but if anyone can test it out and let us know here for sure, that would be great.

So here's my story:

After rebooting for the SECOND time, i decided to wipe the slate clean starting from Rank NUMBER 1. Deleted everything and just started from scratch! No skipping to Level 5 or any of that shit, ALWAYS unlocked weapons in the menu and not during countdowns in lobbies.

Got to level 40 for my weapon unlock in order to give this solution a try, and hey, it worked!

Thanks a lot Davis! You might wanna watch this too while I'm here ;)

For me this achievement unlocked after rebooting the nanosuit (reach level 51) and reaching level 5 after being "born again". It spontaniously popped up after finishing a match.

Am I missing something here? I have 5 tokens and I've been unlocking with A, then backing out immediately to the main menu. The token number stays the same, but the weapon doesn't stay unlocked. Was this patched?

By R0ck5auce on 01 Apr 2012 01:00
@R0ck5auce: I think that is the idea. Even though it will return to being locked, the game counts it as unlocked. So keep doing the procedure until you have unlocked (then locked) every single remaining locked weapon. Im gonna try this as I'm close to rank 39.

By Yemeth on 02 Apr 2012 12:44
@yeme7h
Thanks! I must have read his description wrong then. I thought the weapon would stay unlocked. I did as you said and just went through the weapons unlocking them by pressing A and it worked! Man that was bugging me before.

I have tried it at 39 (w/ my 37 token), about 3x through on my remaining 3 weapons + C4 and no cheevo. Waited a bit too long to back out one time and got stuck with the Gauss sniper. Tried again at 40, went through the 2 weapons and C4, still nothing. Eventually waited too long on a C4 selection and got stuck with that. Next token is at 43, hopefully it will unlock then ... *scared*

If it does not work anymore, the worst that will happen if trying is that you will have to level up as you would have to anyways. Let me know if it works for you, hopefully this has not been patched.

Similar problems here. tried at level 50 - nothing. Prestiged - nothing. Rebooted - nothing at any level 1-13.
I am now at level 39 again with 10 unlock tokens and tried the backing out method a few times yesterday and today and... guess what - Nothing.
Could it be as we are on the Back-up servers ? Would this cause / create / solve problems ?
I am thinking about clearing cache ( removing update ) and trying again.
Need Advice ...

Just got the achievement today. Got glitched too (it didn't work for me to keep retrying to buy the last gun by backing into menu; when I tried to unlock and equip, still nothing and lost the token) so i prestiged and wanted to try your method, but the achievement unlocked after end of the round, where I leveled up to level 16 (I didn't buy any weapons to conserve tokens; used SCAR/Feline). So I wish good luck to you all.

I did the above way and it didnt unlock tried unlocking 1 weapon and backing out and then all 4 and backing out it but nothing, went back in and had my tokens and the weapons locked as it says but still nothing, did this about 6 times and it didnt do anything! Rebooted and got from lvl 1-14 in one capture the relay match +70,000xp, so not going to unlock anything until 39!

This sucks im thinking since they took away the update and allowed us to boost CTR thevy may have also taken away there half ass attempt to fix this achievement. I'm lvl 33 and i'v unlocked as i have got them and still nothing only have the machingun pistol and the three at lvl 39. Fucking game.

Yeah, well it sounds like they fixed the one glitch that actually allowed people to get this broken achievement. What a shame, will keep an eye out, if enough people can confirm that this does not work any more, then I will make a note in the solution. Such a shame, because it was a sure way to get it before. Thanks for comments, will keep an eye on it.

Jester got his tooled up last night, his cries of excitement were good, I've rebooted already, gunna try the trick at 39... in failing that then get back to 50 delete everything, then reboot and play a few levels.

Again its EA's fault squeezing devs to rush games out.. look at all the trouble we with NFS games for example.. These games should be polished to perfection before being release.

I used this on lvl48 with 6 tokens left (weapons I still had locked: M20 14 Gauss, X-43 Mike, Majestic, M34 Flash, JAW and C4). I used then this method and the moment I bought the last weapon (C4) the achievement popped.

thx, worked like a charm

Level 47 with 12 unlocks remaining for 12 weapons. Still afraid of the glitch, I used this method. It took two complete runs through the weapons, which I did one at a time rather than multiple, before it popped on C4.

Great solution. Thanks for helping me avoid this ugly glitch.

Right guys I got the achievement just now. before I jumped into a friends capture the relay with DonNikos, I selected the scar (with gauss attachment) with the cell skin, and the hammer pistol with the cell skin. Fired off the gauss, its basically the shotgun, end of round it popped..

Seems completely random, but I never used the gauss before, don't no if it was the gauss or the skins? But for all those still in my position its worth a try.. if you have tried everything like I did..

Sweet, just got to lvl 39 with 4 weapons to buy with one token. Unlocked the first and backed out, when I went back in to customise I had the one token but the weapon was still showing as I hadn't bought it, did the same thing with the other 3 (each weapon was still to buy when I went into customise) and after buying the last weapon the achievement popped! Tried it with UK standard Ed.

Ok,the weirdest thing happened,I rebooted and got to level 4. I played a match in which I got to level 5 and before it was over the migrating host appeared because the host left and the time when to zero so you'll go to the main screen saying "lost connect screen" and it popped up after I hit A. But I was rank 4 again because of the host who lefted. Hope this helped!

Still works as of Feb 2014. Just to note, I was using the Limited edition disc, with the content code redeemed and installed. I was also level 40 with 6 weapons to unlock, but only using 4 tokens. Did the Scarab first, quit out. Then the Gauss Rifle, quit out. Then did the remaining 4, which I think was the Mashall, the MIKE, L-Tag and C4 all at once, then Tooled Up unlocked as I was quitting out, although I took to long and it saved them.

It works as of March 27, 2014 but mine unlocked in a random way. I first attempted this at level 44 with 9/20 weapons and 10 weapon tokens, It did not work. I tried it seven more times with no luck. I decided to wait till I was level 50 and get my last weapon token at 45 to do this. First try and pop, I unlocked it. My suggestion is if it did not unlock wait till you are level 50 to try again.

UPDATE FOR DIGITAL VERSION: 04/04/14
1. I've tried every kind of tips and solution but they didn't work.

2.So I've reboot nanosuit for the third time but this time I've start to replay some singleplayer. I've notice that some weapon was with the "new star" everytime I enter on multiplayer. After some game chapter (half game) I never seen "new star" on the weapon on multiplayer.

3. I start a new boost I was level 21. After some level (23, maybe when I won a new unlock point) achievement show up.

4. I start to scream like a wolf in heat

Overall a great guide!
But it was different for me. I used your method but at the end, I didn't get any achievement. So tried it on a different day and on a different class slot and BAM achievement unlocked.
I don't know if I was lucky or if this also works but maybe give that a try if you didn't get your achievement at the end.

I just got this with the LIMITED EDITION copy of the game. I used this guide, except I had almost every gun I needed to unloxk at level 39. So I went in order by main gun, then pistol then grenade sections. I completed each moving to the next in order as listed. It worked perfectly and I still have all my credits. So don't worry about having to prestige. That's simply not true as far as this edition goes anymore.

Mine bugged out but luckily I got it to pop by prestiging (You need to hit level "51" then you can reboot.) then it unlocked at the end of the next full game. I'd hit level 14 again as it was part of the level 50 boosting session I was already in.

This worked for me with the digital version. I did not unlock anything at all until I was level 39, then went through methodically, unlocking the first weapon in each category, then the second and so on. Damn, this is one glitchy achievement. Seeing as you get your tokens back using this method, it's worth trying it I guess.

By Rossco7530 on 27 Sep 2015 03:20
This method does not seem to work anymore. I have tried it multiple times unlocking every weapon at least 3 times. But it doesn't unlock. Fortunately, I have not lost any of my tokens. So I will level up to 45 and see what happens.

Finally, after 6 months and 100+ hours of boosting, I got Tooled Up to pop.

Was using the digital version, rebooted three times, no achievement. On my third reboot I decided to purchase a physical copy. I then continued to level up and upon finishing the match in which I reached level 25, the achievement popped.

Persistence is key. Also, probably try using a physical copy.

Didn't work - I'm level 41, disc version; I unlocked the C4, backed out to main menu, and when I returned to MP the token was used.

Just gonna continue on and hope it unlocks normally.

If you’re using a standard physical copy there’s a really good chance that it’ll unlock at the beginning of your first reboot. Again, I’m not sure if there is any reasoning to this achievement so luck is definitely involved. But from what I’ve seen from this achievement (and I’ve seen plenty of people unlock it), is chances are there’s a high probability you’ll unlock it at the beginning of your first reboot. Also, if you still happen to have tokens, I’d clear your cache and continue trying the token glitch. It usually doesn’t pop on the first try.

By o DEEVIUS o on 28 Jan 2018 17:27
So in Operative Status it's showing the unlocked weapons as: 0/22
There is actually only 20 weapons you can unlock via unlock tokens.
So my question is, when you hit Rank 45 you will get your last unlock token, you than use all unlock tokens you will only end on 20/22 unlocked weapons.
Will the achievement still pop (If it doesn't glitch) if you end on that number? (20/22)

It's supposed to but doesn't for some people. I use the disc version and unlocked everything in order and it didn't unlock. I'm at level 49 now with 20/22 and no achievement.

Some say that when you prestige it may unlock with your next tokens, that's all I can hope for, I'll know tomorrow night.

I have the limited edition physical copy but no code. Had a standard copy in when I tried the glitching method. Reached level 45 with 4 weapon unlock tokens. The weapons to unlock were scarab,gauss,43 mike, and C4. Did the solution going down the line as I listed them only once and the achievement popped. The weapons still show locked and I still have the 4 tokens.

For people that still have trouble unlocking this:
I tried it 2 times with multiple weapon unlocks before going to the main menu and it did not unlock. Alter that I tried it with every single weapon one at a time from the very first weapon (Feline) to the last explosive (C4) by going back to the main menu after every unlock and the achievement popped.

I used the digital version.
Good luck!

Achievement unlocked!
thanks a lot for the method!

I had several tokens..12 of them; unlocked some weapons, backed out and so on. After coming back to the multiplayer section all was still locked and tokens were here.
I finally "lost patience" and used all of them until i had only 1. Still did not work.

Aaaaand after reading some comments i used this method on the 3 weapons i needed: 1 at a time, going back to main menu all the time. Coming back to multiplayer with token still here and weapon still locked. But as soon as i was done with these 3, achievement popped!

Oh, and i have digital version of the game.

Thanks again and good luck to all of you for reaching level 50 :-)

I used the normal disc version, just followed the direction and get the achievement.

I saved all the unlock coins and started the glitch when I was level 40. Everything went smoothly. I just unlocked all the weapons one by one, and I just did one time....it poped up when I unlocked C4, the last weapon.

Thank you Davis 888!smile

Worked like a charm. I purchased the deluxe edition used physically years ago, and when I started working on the multiplayer for this, I was a bit worried about it.

What I did was not unlock anything at all, including custom classes, until I got to level 39 (I was level 40 when I attempted this though). I then went through and followed the method listed in this solution. I first unlocked all primary weapons, then backed out to the main menu. Repeated it for secondary weapons and equipment, but got no achievement. When I went and started unlocking the primary weapons for the second time, the achievement popped about halfway through.

So if you're worried about having a physical copy of a used deluxe edition, there is hope for you as others have mentioned!

Great guide! In order to get the achievement, select Multiplayer. Then proceed to the CUSTOMIZE EQUIPMENT option. Select whatever class and unlock weapons from each of the first 3 categories. YOU CANNOT USE THE GLITCH IF YOU PRESS X TO EQUIP. The game will save if you equip!!!!!!!

I was rank 45 so had all unlock tokens. I unlocked all guns in the order they would have been unlocked as you ranked up by using another guide on this solution to show that. I unlocked all weapons and gadgets in order and it didn't unlock. Not sure what I did wrong or it is just glitched for me.

I am on 20/22 weapons. I play the digital version of the game via EA play on the series X via backwards compatibility (as can't access crysis 2 via EA play on xbox 360 as this isn't possible).

Do i need to reboot my nanosuit and hope it unlocks at when i get more unlock tokens? Does nanosuit reboot effect dedication glitching? As I am still awaiting that (unsure if that has glitched yet as I started this game on 17th November 2022 (funny/annoyingly enough, it unlocked on my dummy account on 06/01/23 and my dummy account also started the game on 17th November 2022). Unfortunately forgot to play online on the 1st January 2023 eventhough I was supposed to.

Any help on this would be appreciated.

I would get a copy of the game on xbox 360. I got a LE copy for $5 so they're plentiful. It really might be the only way to do this. BC is finnicky on this game so I always recommend avoiding it

@Whats a Chundy: How is a limited edition copy going to help, why not a normal physical copy?

I'm playing a game (using the glitch to create a online game with less than 6 players) with my 2nd account online on specific days to try to unlock dedication. i'm currently at 4 months as I started the game back on 17th November so officially that hasn't glitched on me yet and I read resetting suit (back to rank 1) might cause a glitch on dedication to reset so I am trying to get that to unlock before I reset my rank and see what happens as I've read people get tooled up when they reset rank and go up some levels or pops when dedication is unlocked as dedication not being unlocked can apparently lock you out of tooled up too.

I finally unlocked dedication achievement just now. I used a glitched lobby playing extraction game mode. Played a 2nd game but All tooled up didn't unlock after the 2nd game. I have only rebooted once and at rank 46 as took a break until dedication unlocked. Now it has I will look to get this glitched achievement to unlock using weapon glitch method after rebooting suit again and then ranking up after another suit reboot if needed.

OMG!!!!

I just unlocked 'Tooled up' achievement which was glitched for me. I boosted up from rank 46 to rank 50 to then be able to reboot my nanosuit again. I did this and then boosted up to rank 26 via the glitch lobby (and was able to change time limit to 30 mins) once this game finished, the achievement unlocked for me instantly once the scoreboard came up. I doubt you have to get to rank 26, likely just to the rank that gives you 2 weapon tokens (rank 8 i think) to make the 22 weapons stats eventhough theres only 20 base game weapons and 2 weapon skins via the limited edition copy (EA play digital copy see's the game as the limited edition version hence this issue I believe) then achievement would unlock. I ranked up as much as possible thinking I would have to atleast get to rank 43 to attempt the weapon unlock glitch and possibly reboot nanosuit again.

Quick note about nanosuit reboot, you can only do a nanosuit reboot 5 times. Once you have rebooted 5 times you can no longer reboot your nanosuit and therefore might block you entirely out of getting tooled up achievement if you require to reboot your nanosuit.

This shows that if you don't have 'dedication' achievement and is glitched for you as well as the 'tooled up' achievement is glitched, the dedication achievement can block 'tooled up' achievement from unlocking as dedication achievement hasn't been unlocked.

If you can't unlock 'tooled up' and you still don't have dedication unlocked then I suggest you wait till you get dedication to unlock which might require the use of the end of year/start of year glitch which nearly always guarantees to unlock dedication achievement.

After my first attempt at doing dedication and tooled up achievements using backwards compatible digital copy via EA play and it glitching on me and then doing a nanosuit reboot and both still locked for me on digital copy even after ranking up to rank 46 and attempting the weapon unlock glitch again but didn't do anything.
I decided to buy a physical copy (not limited edition copy) and to only use my xbox 360 (premium) from then on. I gave up for some time with playing once or so every month to attempt to see if i could unlock dedication and was possibly 4-6 months of not touching it and then decided to play a match on 03/12/23 and finally dedication achievement unlocked which I wasn't expecting as was expecting to have to do the year glitch - There is thought that dedication is more likely to unlock on 1st of the month and other hypothesis' but no one knows how the game counts the months so either keep trying or wait for end of year glitch (31st December/1st January (of the new year)).
I finally got round to ranking up using the lobby glitch to boost my rank via double boxing - I got to rank 50 and rebooted nanosuit again, this is all while playing on xbox 360 with a physical crysis 2 copy with my main account on the xbox 360 then went from rank 1 to rank 26 and achievement for tooled up unlocked once game finished and showed the scoreboard for the finished game with no need to unlock any weapons at the main menu.

I suggest to just use the xbox 360 and a physical copy (not limited edition) if at all possible to lower your risk significantly of either of these achievements glitching on you and having to go through my ordeal although they can still likely glitch on you anyway.

My journey -
Officially started online on 17th November 2023 on digital copy via EA play on Xbox Series X - 10 months from this date.

Reminder for "Dedication" if months reset due to reboot of nanosuit on 17th June 2023 - 3 months. 6 months is on 17th December 2023 (or 1st December 2023 if only counts 1st of the month).

Tooled up also glitched on me and might not unlock until "Dedication" achievement has unlocked for me - Might unlock after playing another game online once "Dedication" unlocked.

Rebooted nanosuit (once) on 17th June 2023 using digital copy via EA play on Xbox Series X and ranked up to rank 46. Weapon unlock token glitch didn't work.

Bought Crysis 2 standard copy on 18th June 2023 and only played on xbox 360 since and from now on.

Played glitched lobby (with my 2nd console, xbox one via BC) on 01/09/23 and Dedication didn't unlock still after match (nor Tooled up).

Next attempt likely is to play on 1st December, failing still, the year glitch where I will play again on 31st December and again on 1st January 2024 preferably with a full 6 player lobby minimum.


I post this to help anyone who has these issues with these 2 glitched achievements and hope this will help someone else who had issues like me as theirs not much info on the internet or even on TA guides so thought i'd share my journey that might help someone else resolve it for them like I worked out how to resolve it for myself.

Finally Finished with MP for this game on 30/12/23.
Good luck.

Thanks

Just to provide my experience, this trick didn't work for me when attempting it at level 39, or any level up to 50. I rebooted, didn't get the achievement, then leveled up past level 5 in my next game and got the achievement at the leaderboard at the end of the game.

In addition I had an alt account that I used to boost, which was also level 50, and as a test I went and unlocked every weapon in one shot, and my alt got the achievement without any problems. So maybe the trick wasn't necessary if I would have just waited and unlocked everything at once on my main account. Who knows.

By bblcreator8790 on 11 Jan 2024 15:37
As long as you have 1 token, you should be good to go. For me it took 2 times, but others it only took 1 time, and the achievement didn't pop right away, it took a while. Try going over all you have left again with your last token, then when you head back to the main menu just sit there a good minute or two. Also you might want to make sure you have purchased it and not equipped it, then wait a little bit before backing out to the main menu. Double check your achievement list as well just in case you might have turned off notifications. Best of luck to you SpazCool, let me know how it goes.

(By the way, I used the unlock on the X43-Mike first, and I backed out, I came back and noticed it wasn't unlocked. I did it again, still locked. So I did the same to the C4, and then all of the sudden Achievement Unlocked! I still need the X43-Mike though, it is still locked... lol)

Just wanted to let you guys know that it seems like it also depends on the game version you are using whether or not this glitch works.

I tried it today with my german Games On Demad version and had no luck.
I did it 10+ times but the achievement wouldn't pop.
Now I tried it with my UK disc version and it popped on first try.
I tried both games because I realised that I had two seperate title updates for the game.
I don't know if this is because of the language (german didn't work, english did work) or that one was GoD and the other one was a disc (GoD didn't work, disc worked), but I would place my bet on the latter.

My experience with this Achievement is that i used this method and the only thing that happened is that i lost a weapon unlock token, i ve waited to level to 45 to get another one, used it and got no achievement. So at least in my case the solution doesnt work.

Just for the record i have unlocked the weapons in the right order. I have the standard retail version of the game.

Quick update (originally I used the digital version): This did not unlock at Level 39 with the token glitch. And it also did not unlock at 45. I do have all my tokens and all weapons are unlocked (so no tokens went missing). This also did not unlock together with "Crysis, what crysis?".
I'm about to reboot. But I purchased the disc version before I attempt this. I will update this in a few days and let you know how this went...

UPDATE: This has finally unlocked! It popped right after my first match when I ranked up to level 9. Before the session, I made sure the digital version was deleted from my HDD, I cleared my cache (and I noticed that the title update file had a different name with special characters in it, now that I used the disc version of the game: "Crysis®2 Title Update". Before it was called "Crysis®2 Title Update". Perhaps that has something to do with the achievement unlocking, but who knows!). Anyway, I downloaded the update again, rebooted my suit, played 1 match, and it popped on the results screen!
Not sure, if switching to the disc version helped, but it seems to be the safer bet.

What would be most wisest you think? I'm ranking up till Rank 45. Would spending all the tokens before backing out to the main menu be a good bet? Or doing a single weapon each time, backing out to main menu, entering multiplayer again, unlocking next weapon, backing out again etc etc etc

Personally I would stick with one weapon at a time. That's how i did it way back when i figured this out. Been a while since i last played this but it still seems to work most of the time for standard disk version. Again this achievement is rather buggy and it doesn't always seem to work for everyone unfortunately. Best of luck! I know the servers are going to be shut down so hopefully this helps still

@Berserker Armor Follow this to glitch lobby to play with less than 6 players (even yourself only). https://youtu.be/_-AEhU5H8HI

On another note:

Both Dedication and Tooled up have glitched on me. I was using the EA play digital version on the Xbox Series X. I tried constantly for the past 7 months for dedication. First played on 17th November 2022, should have got it in May, tried in June too but nothing, played at least once every month - played on 1st of every month, 17th and every 3rd week on Thursday as that is what it was when i first started, but no luck.
My 2nd account I was using to double box, got both tooled up and dedication OK. Tooled up work via the weapon token unlock glitch and going to main menu etc. Dedication unlocked on 6th January 2022 or something due to the year glitch i guess, but my main account didn't have this luck annoyingly - I guess i might need to do the 31st December 2023 then 1st January 2024 and hope at this rate.

As for tooled up, i rebooted nanosuit on 17th June and ranked back up to rank 45, tried to do the weapon glitch again as I didn't get it unlock during ranking up like to lvl 9 like some others have mentioned. Did the weapon glitch again with the tokens and back out to main menu etc with 1 weapon at a time, multiple, a few here and then a few there etc multiple times but no luck still. I ended up buying a standard disk (not LE version) today and playing on xbox 360, weapon token unlock glitch still didn't unlock achievement. Played a match and neither dedication or tooled up unlocked at the end of the game (in a glitched 2 player online lobby).

I guess my next step is to reboot nanosuit again but with disk version and playing on xbox 360 only from now on and hope it unlocks while ranking up again or when doing weapon token glitch.
Anyone know how many times you can reboot nanosuit on this game? 5? 10 times?
I just hope rebooting the nanosuit hasn't blocked dedication now as I read in some places that might be a possible cause for it not unlocking properly.

Also the title update on xbox 360 with my standard disk version says: "Crysis®2 Title Update", not sure if this makes any difference. Not sure what digital version update looks like as I used EA play digital version on Xbox Series X via Backwards Compatibility.

If anyone else has any ideas for me to unlocked both tooled up and dedication, then let me know. For the year glitch, do you play a couple of games on 31st December 2023 and then 1st January 2024 to hopefully get dedication to unlock?

I've popped peoples "Tooled Up" on the digital version. Follow the instructions on the solution i have posted, and you'll get your achievement. Remove your save on a USB from your machine, including the campaign. Wipe it from your machine, redownload the item.

Start a game lobby and it will pull down the data from the server. Prestige as per instructions on my solution. I would suggest you put a standard copy of the game in the disc tray when your achievement is due, and it will force the achievement to pop.

I'm the only person on the internet that has definatively worked out how to force the achiement to pop. Follow the instructions to the letter, and your achievement will pop.

Under no circumstances use the limited edition version of the disc without reading my guide. Before you start, take it back and use a standard copy of the game. If it's too late, then start reading my guide, and follow it to the letter.

Digital version, bought all weapons used them all counter said 20/22 hit 50 rebooted, now lvl 17 still nothing. I'll end up boosting to 45 if it doesn't pop before then, but that's it. Then I will never touch this again, what a waste for all that hard work to get to level 45 and unlock all weapons and not be rewarded.

BOOOM! I just popped this achievement at Rank 39, first playthrough. I just couldn't wait and wanted to give it a try.
I was using the digital/games on demand version of this game. I saved all my unlock tokens till Rank 39. At Rank 39 I went through all the weapons, like Rossco mentioned:

Rossco7530 said:
This worked for me with the digital version. I did not unlock anything at all until I was level 39, then went through methodically, unlocking the first weapon in each category, then the second and so on. Damn, this is one glitchy achievement. Seeing as you get your tokens back using this method, it's worth trying it I guess.
So buying a single weapon each time, than backing out to the main menu, buying the next weapon, backing out. etc etc etc.
This worked without any issues for me.

It's been 5 years since I last boosted Crisis 2, but I have just unlocked this glitched achievement after finishing my first run through to level 45. Figured I'd post what I did in the hope it might help others...

- Never use a token to unlock a weapon after a disconnection in game. Better yet, restart your Xbox and unlock before/after boosting session.

- Do not use the token glitch at level 39 to unlock the weapons early. Wait until level 45 when you get your last weapon token.

- I did not hoard my tokens until the end. I purchased each weapon in level order until 39 where I saved my last 3 tokens to use them all in one go.

- I did not purchase C4 last, but rather first in my final 3 unlocks.

- BEFORE unlocking your final weapons. Go to system storage, delete the title update, clear your system cache and restart your Xbox. Once back in game redownload the update. NOW you can proceed with unlocking.

- FYI, I had the digital version.

Good luck all! :)

Update: This popped and I didn't even unlock one of the weapons yet. I am using a Limited Edition disc and I'm unaware of what if any DLC content I have, but will be able to check if someone knows how.

I followed this guide almost exactly.

- I used the LIMITED EDITION disc version on my Xbox 360, which I had first played Crysis 2 on. Don't know if that's relevant but a glitchy achievement is worth taking all precautions for.
- I had the Primary (M20 Gauss and X-43 Mike), all secondary pistols, and all explosives to unlock and only had 6 tokens.
- I first unlocked the M20 and then went back to the main menu. Came back and the gun was locked and my tokens were back.
- I unlocked all of the secondaries, and went back to the main menu. It gave me 2/3 tokens back and kept the last one unlocked.
- I did the same with the explosives, and upon purchase of the last one the achievement popped to my total surprise. I went back in game and again was refunded 2/3 tokens and the last one stayed unlocked.
- I never purchased the X-43 Mike.

EDIT: It's been 6 hours and the achievement has not registered on TA, despite unlocking further achievements since.

2: I needed to unlock another achievement in Crysis 2 for this to register on TA. It's possible it wouldn't have ever registered if this was the last achievement I needed

NOTE: (Updated) This achievement originally had problems and, unfortunately, the patches have only made it worse. There is no guarantee you can get this achievement when running through the multiplayer ranks. You can get it by resetting your rank after hitting max rank, at which point it may randomly unlock after using a weapon unlock token, though it may take several resets before it finally unlocks. Please read the comments for further details.

---

This achievement is somewhat misleading because of how it presents personal status data. If you check the Operative Status screen in the MP, you can see it says there are a total of 29 weapons. As far as I can tell, it is counting extra skins for weapons (such as the one from the Limited Edition) as actual weapons as well. To get this achievement, you don't have to have those extra skins. This means that number is actually wrong.

To get this achievement, you have to have all 20 primary, secondary, and explosive weapons unlocked from the Customize Equipment screens. You start with 3 of them by default (SCAR, M 12 Nova, and M 17 Frag). To unlock the rest, you must use weapon unlocks, which are gained by leveling up. Once you reach level 45, you should gain the final 2 weapon unlocks you need to complete your list and get the achievement.

---

NOTE: I have a friend that had this achievement glitch on him. He unlocked the weapons in an unusual order, skipping over the Hammer pistol in particular and unlocking that as his last weapon. Comparing the number of gamers that have this achievement to the number who reached level 50, looks like he isn't the only one. I do not know for certain what causes this, but it would be safest if you don't skip over weapons when choosing what to unlock.
DubNut86 said:
If it glitches on you, max out level 50 and then prestige. This will unlock the achievement.
This also worked for my friend.

NOTE 2: It appears some people are now getting only 19 of 20 weapon unlock tokens with the most recent patch. There may be a solution:
agentcastle said:
a guy posted elsewhere that he had 19/20 weapons, did the reboot, and then earned his way back to lvl 5 and was given another weapon unlock...
This doesn't always seem to fix it. This does seem to fix the problem more often if you unlock the weapon you didn't unlock your first time around.

It's glitched on me. I have max out to level 50 and then reboot, still no achievement, because i never get 1 weapon unlock. I have 19/20 weapon unlocks on 50 and i can't unlock C4.

I am having the same problem. I can't unlock the last weapon I need because I don't have a weapon unlock and I am a level 50 so this sucks. I guess I'll just wait until they patch it or until someone comes up with a solution.

my guess would be that if you used the XP unlock with the limited edition you would have to earn the XP equivalent of getting to lvl 5 for all the weapons to unlock - just a theory
0
0
By BrumtownMangler on 04 Apr 2011 20:38
Another theory is that if you boost your XP in anyway (i.e. Capture the Relay way) you may "unlock" more than one "unlock" at a time (like gaining two or ever nore lvls at a time) and that could be the problem.

One of the patches has to be at least partially responsible for all this confusion. I have an LE code and everything worked just fine when I did a half-n-half thing too, but it was several weeks ago. My friend that I mentioned who had trouble initially doesn't have an LE code.

By Ashen Seraph on 07 Apr 2011 17:22
I used LE code to jump to lvl 5. Reached lvl 50 without getting my last weapon unlock, rebooted and still nothing. Looks like I'll be going back to 45 with fingers crossed. >_<

EDIT: Got it at lvl 18 after reboot. Just remember to unlock guns as early as you can after they become unlockable and that seemed to sort it for me at least. :)

i just reached rank 50 and i still need 2 weapon unlocks, i think i know why it glitched too, i was on rank 44 and only needed 2 more weapon unlocks which i think your meant to get both of them at rank 45 (corrent me if i'm wrong) then during the next match i ranked up to 45 but during the same match the host left and i was kicked from the match to the main menu and on the main menu it said i was on rank 45 but because i got kicked it never went to that screen where it shows the points you got in the match and i never got the 2 last weapon unlocks cause of that i believe.

Does anyone know what i should do to get the last 2? i really don't want to have to rank up to 45 again lol :)

By LostMantella9 on 09 Apr 2011 08:41
So, i went back to lvl 45 again. At first i thought that i only needed to make sure that i unlocked the C4 (This was the one i hadn't unlocked the first time) and then my achievement would pop. This didn't happen. I also didn't unlock the weapons in order the second time.

I had to make it back to lvl 45 and it unlocked. As to clarify when you get your last weapon unlocks, they become available at lvl 43 and 45.

Well, finally I've got the avhievement in my 2ond reboot. When I reach level 50 in both times I finally with 19/20 weapons. The first time I can't buy the 2ond heavy machine gun, and when I got the level to buy, the cheevo not pop.

The second time I left the flash grenade to buy, and inmediatly after the reebot - I have the limited edition and I go to level 5 and have one weapon token- I buy it and achievement pop.

For the ones with the LE I recomended not buy the flash grenade, 'cuz in case u arrive at level 45 and got 19/20 weapons, u can buy it inmediatly after the reboot.

Hope this helps

For anyone who installed the patch first, then used the code, you're safe. I just unlocked this tonight. When I first put the game in, it asked for update, I did that, then rebooted, put the Pre-order code in and started to play.

Just boosted from 22-45 and it popped just as it should've.

It glitched for me too. :(

I am almost sure that this glitch happens when you level up in a match and get kicked from it (because of lag, being idle and so on) or when you leave the match before it ends. You then do not receive the level up awards (dog tags, weapon unlocks...), which you would have received if you completed the match.

Do anybody know in which levels you receive each of the 20 weapon unlocks?

FYI I've seen it written that if you have all of the weapons unlocked and the achievment doesn't pop you need to level up to 50 and reboot the nanosuit. Well I just leveled up and did the reboot (an extra 15+ hours of MP to get there) and the achievement still hasn't popped.

Total glitch out on me too. Got upto 45, unlocked all the weapons in order, but no Achievement. Recovered my gamertag on my 2nd console; no Achievement. Deleted my save game and started up the single player, backed out and went to the multiplayer suite. No Achievement. I'm 48 now, so I'll be rebooting the suit and continuing on till the damn thing pops.

Rebooted the suit, and had a challenge that gave me a whopping 7500 xp, so I went straight from rank 1 to 6 in one game--- it popped at the end. some tips;

1) PLAY LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER.
2) DO NOT wipe your cache.
3) DO NOT delete any information from your HDD (Dedication achievement still needs that info to work I'm guessing).
4)????
5) Profit.

Just to add, there is confirmation by Crytek that there will be no further patches for Crysis 2, as the amount of people playing the game regularly is not enough to warrant such an expenditure. Follow our advice and just keep soldiering on with it, because it does unlock eventually, its just there's no telling when.

Currently ranking back up to 40 to try the other solution with the multiple unlock tokens. Anyways, I've also heard that one can have the achievement pop if one recovers their gamertag onto another Xbox. I did this, played one round and still no "tooled up" or "dedication" which is now a month late.

I also noticed that all of my custom classes were reset to their defaults which made me skeptical that "tooled up" would pop.

I just became the latest victim of this glitch. Level 45 & 20/20 weapons. No achievement.

Summarizing all possible precautions:

1) Don't use Limited Edition code to skip to Lv. 5.
2) Unlock weapons in from left to right consecutively.
3) Finish the round when you reach a new rank. (Otherwise, no weapon unlocks given)
4) Do not use weapon unlocks in a countdown lobby. (A match commencing might interfere with progress tracking.)
5) Try not to scavenge enemy DLC weapons (FY71 alike).

Just wondering why this solution is still the top one when my solution is not only the early way to get this, but the almost guaranteed way as well? I have nothing against this guide, but it’s no longer the top solution in my eyes, since technically it’s not really a solution, more of a guide. Anyways, anyone having problems with this achievement take a look at my solution, I am sure it will get you the achievement if you have at least a token or two left over and are at least level 39. Good luck all, hopefully we can all unlock this buggy achievement, it always sucks when the game makers choose to ignore a buggy achievement, but at least this one is eventually obtainable.

I think that's because I own the Limited Edition and the game needs al lthe weapons, including the 2 for LE code. But I don't have the code, then I will still have 20/22 weapons. Cannot touch the other 2 weapons and I will never get this achievement???

This worked for me and a buddy of mine:
We tried the same method as mentioned above, unlock a weapon, quit out of MP, re-enter and unlock a different weapon.
But it didn't work for both of us, so we tried this method on a different class (we used everytime class 1) and we got our achievements. So maybe give this a try.

Just glitched me and rebooting the nanosuit didn't work. I think if you get glitched but have all 20 weapons then it will unlock after prestige, but if it glitches you out of a weapon unlock then you have to go through to level 45 again.

i had the LE code which gave me XP to level 5 and a weapon unlock, hit lvl 50 half legit/half boosting and finished with 19/20 weapons, reset my nano, used my first weapon unlock and no ach - my guess is that the few people who got the ach after the initial glitch, unlocked the weapon they were missing the first time- the people ive talked to with 19/20 all had the LE code as suggested by BrumtownMangler

Just unlocked Tooled Up on my second prestige. I think what may have helped was that when I started the game up I went to settings and chose my memory card (which had nothing Crysis related on it), then I backed out to the title screen and chose my memory card when the option came up. I then played 1 game and soon as the end game scoreboard came up the achievement unlocked. It's speculation to be sure but maybe it'll work for others?
FYI: I was promoted to level 25 as well as unlocking my 5th custom class and grenade level 3 during that game.

- put in the LE code after i reached rank 5 with no effect.
- every weapon unlocked but the hammer (lvl13)
- rebooted + got to lvl 5 + 1 weapon unlock instantly (LE code! yeee!)
- went back to lvl 13 without unlocking anything
- unlocked hammer
- got the achievement.

Hardstyle, simple answer, no. The DLC does not count towards the weapon count and will not unlock the achievement. How do I know? Because I took one for the team to confirm it wouldn't work and wasted my money on trying it. The only thing you can really do is keep playing and prestige and hope it unlocks sometime the second time around. Mine popped when I hit level 4 after I prestiged, I didn't have to unlock anything again. I didnt even unlock the weapon classes.

I refer you to SeraphimNeeded’s solution above for its overview on to how to unlock this achievement through natural progression, and the cautionary bit about not unlocking weapons out of order.

This achievement glitched on me, so I'll discuss that. But first I thought this page would benefit from having the FULL LIST OF WEAPONS and the rank at which they become unlockable. You gain access to multiplayer's Customize Equipment menu at rank 5. The 20 weapons are:

**PRIMARY**

SUB-MACHINE GUNS
Feline (rank 13)
K-Volt (rank 21)

ASSULT RIFLES
SCAR (rank 1)
Grendel (rank 13)
Scarab (rank 27)

SNIPER RIFLES
DSG-1 (rank 5)
M20 14 Gauss (rank 39)

SHOTGUNS
Jackal (rank 5)
Marshall (rank 21)

HEAVY
MK.60 Mod 0 (rank 5)
L-TAG (rank 27)
X-43 Mike (rank 39)

**SECONDARY**
M 12 Nova (rank 1)
Hammer (rank 13)
AY69 (rank 21)
Majestic (rank 27)

**EXPLOSIVES**
M 17 Frag (rank 1)
M34 Flash (rank 5)
JAW (rank 21)
C4 (rank 39)

And these are the levels at which you earn weapon unlock tokens:
5, 7, 9, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 24, 27, 29, 31, 33, 37, 40, 43 and 45.


MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE GLITCH: When I reached level 45, I was not aware that one of the easy ways to encounter the glitch is to use an unlock after having been in a match that ended by disconnection, rather than completion. I did exactly that, and no achievement popped. So, DO NOT use weapon unlock tokens after a disconnection.

I reached rank 50, unlocking Crysis, What Crysis?. Somewhere along the way between rank 50 and the second rank 50 (the "51" where you unlock the prestige option "Nanosuit Reboot" in Operation Status), I cleared my system cache. Clearing the cache might have been of no consequence, but I did it. Then I did the Reboot and was sent back to rank 1.

In a boosting match soon after, where I went from rank 3 to rank 6, Tooled Up popped at the scoreboard as soon as the match finished. It was the act of reaching my second level 5 and earning (not using) a new weapon unlock that de-glitched this achievement for me.

NOTE: If you see 20/22 weapons unlocked, the extra two are referring to weapon skins that unlock after you do the Reboot. If you reclimb the ladder and unlock all the weapons again, it will eventually read 22/22.

Good luck! I hope it doesn't glitch on you.

Reaching rank 45 gives you the last weapon unlock token. Whether or not I have yet unlocked this (glitched) achievement does not change that fact.

The glitch works at level 40. Just unlock a weapon and back out to the main menu and repeat for every weapon not unlocked.

I'm not prescribing a "way," Snowy, I'm telling people what happened to me. Sorry to hear it hasn't popped for you. Did you hit your second level 5 after doing the Reboot?

So I am level 45, used my last weapon unlock. Says 20/22. Are you saying I just need to "re-up" and that should unlock the last 2 weapon skins, and the achievement should unlock?

As I said, for me it was reaching level 5 after the reboot. Your experience may vary with this glitchy bitch.

If I unlock all weapons in order it should unlock properly then? I have no progress or unlocks as of now, everything is a clean slate.

Great solution in terms of what weapons unlock when, have used this a lot now to determine which I need to purchase next (assuming acquiring them in order is of any significance). I'm now on my 2nd reboot with no luck, hoping the achievement unlocks in the near future.

Now this is the solution for those who have been unfortunate enough to buy the "limited edition" version, without inputting a code.

Now if you do not enter the code, from experience the achievement will not pop, no matter how much you play. There is however a way around the issue, and I've tested it on multiple peoples profiles, and this most definitely works!

The first thing you need to do is go and pick up a "standard" copy of the game. This is the first thing you need to do.

Now all the information (statistics) are held on a server, and I'm going to explain how to force the server to pop the achievement. Please note, if you don't follow all the steps, or don't want to buy a "standard edition" then please don't complain why I haven't found a way of fixing poor programming, while continuing to use your "special edition" disc.

Now firstly you may as well go straight to rank 50, then prestige as soon as you can. Ideally you want to finish boosting just before you have the option of a "suit reboot" and do that immediately (after the session...after the following steps).

Step 1 : Remove your original game save onto a USB drive, with all the campaign data progress.

Step 2 : Clear your cache. After doing these two steps it will convince your xbox it's never played the game before.

Step 3 : Recover your gamertag, ideally to an Xbox that has never previously played the game. If that is not an option it is imperative you recover your gamertag to the original console.

Step 4 : Insert "standard disc" and game on 1st insertion will create a new save file and download your statistics from Crytek's server.

Step 5 : Now reboot your suit, and play as you would have the first time, spending tokens as you wish. When you hit rank 45, try spending tokens and then pressing the back button to make use of the glitch, although in my experience it did not work after insertion of the "limited version" of the disc. This will just be plain luck if yours randomly unlocks.

Now to the bad news. Continue playing until you hit rank 50 and then proceed onto rebooting your suit for the second time. Reboot your suit immediately. Now the game after you have rebooted your suit, the achievement should pop at the start of the next game, because after the second reboot you will automatically have classes unlocked and multiple tokens (as you have magically gone straight to level 10).

I've talked 4 people through these steps, and all four now have their "Tooled Up" achievement. So follow the above steps and you'll have your achievement too, but don't complain about the level of work! I didn't say it was a quick glitch, but it is the definitive solution.

This may or may not affect the achievement for playing 6 months after first playing the game. In my case 6 months has not yet passed for me being able to confirm or deny this.

Good luck, and don't email me any more!!!! lol

I've got a used copy of this game a few days ago without knowing about this supposed glitch with the LIMITED EDITION version. As soon as I've heard about it I tried to input the code that came with the game, but it had been used already (probably by its first owner). Then I went over the internet reading as much as I could about the glitch before proceeding to play the game, including the above solutions here on TA. Personally, I didn't like one of the suggestions I've found, which suggests to play it and rank up over again, this time with a regular disc version of the game. Doing that is almost the same thing than never having played the LIMITED EDITION, so it didn't make much sense to me.

Finally, I decided what I was going to do/try:
To reach level 39 and then use the token to unlock all the remaining weapons, as described in some of these other solutions. If that didn't work, I was going to try to play the single player campaign after I reached level 50 and if it still didn't unlock, after getting all the other MP achievements, I was going to reboot/prestige.

Fortunately, none of those other measures were necessary. I unlocked "Tool Up!" without a problem, doing the token trick (spend the token and back out to the main menu). I decided to list here the exact conditions under which this happened to me:

- I had not (nor have so far) started the single player campaign.
- Therefore, I've only played MP games, mostly relay boosting and a few other game types for the miscellaneous achievements.
- I unlocked every weapon until I got to level 39 in their proper order of availability.
- My intention was to do the token trick at level 39, but because I was in a squad/lobby/party when that happened, I could not back out to the main menu at that time. So, as soon as our boosting session ended I was level 45 and then I had 3 tokens and 3 weapons left to unlock (X-43 Mike, GK8 Gauss Rifle and the C4 explosive). I had enough tokens and could have used 1 for each of those remaining weapons, but instead I decided to try to unlock them all with just 1 token, doing the related trick.
So I unlocked the gauss, went to the main menu, came back, unlocked the gauss (again) and the mike (which means I spent 2 tokens this second time), then went to the main menu, came back again and as soon as I unlocked the C4 it popped, for my joy and my friend's who was waiting to know the results of this attempt.

So here you have it guys, I've got Tool Up! with a secondhand copy of the LIMITED EDITION without the code for it.

I hope you get it too. Cheers!

To whomever has a Crysis 2 Limited Edition:

After hours wasted boosting this game to Level 40-50 a second time, it turns out that the only way to get this achievement is to activate the Limited Edition content included in your LE copy of Crysis 2.

Learned this the hard way after wasting tens of hours boosting.

Hey

i only wanna give a tipp for this buggy cheevy which i unlocked minutes ago without having a special/limited edition of this game or used any glitch or something. Maybe it works for you as well :

i reached level 46 today and kept my last token till now ( dont know and dont guess if it has something to do with that!) and wanted to unlock the last weapon and hoped the cheevy will unlock and it does.
Why?
Maybe cause i closed the Game and deleted the titleupdate and cleaned a few times ( 7-8 times ) the systemcache and restartet the game and downloaded the titleupdate ( of course ) and spent my last token and the cheevy pops....

if you gain your last token (at level 45 i guess it was) try the same and maybe it will unlocks it for you too!

Good Luck

Welcome

If you have the normal version disc of the game and this achievement glitched on you don't worry just keep leveling up until you max out your level on level 50.

Then go to dashboard then storage device or memory unite and go to Crysis 2 file and delete the title update, Go back to the game and download the update.

Now go to multiplayer and reboot your suite if the achievement doesn't pop after the reboot go and play 1 full game on CTR and the achievement should unlock by the end of the game.

I got it by this way wink

Warning: At the time of writing, the online servers for the XBox 360 Version of this game are still up and running. As of October 2018, the original online servers for the game we're closed. However the XBox 360's servers have had a transfer and it appears the servers have gone back to their old routes, allowing people to also use the Relay Boosting Method for XP. Whilst we do not know how long this will last, I would strongly suggest you get all the Multiplayer achievements done for this game, sooner than later. The Playstation 3 Version's servers are closed.

This is not really much of a Solution, but it's more of a method that you could possibly use, if you are struggling to get this achievement to unlock.

Basically, in this Forum, I did an explanation about a good friend of mine, who was having a nightmare, trying to get this achievement to unlock, alongside this one...

Crysis 2DedicationThe Dedication achievement in Crysis 2 worth 71 pointsPlay online 6 months after your first time


This is the forum, and I've addressed it to my long-winded comment if you wish to read it...

Warning: Do not play MP on Xbox One BC if you started on Xbox 360!

Now I am pleased to inform you that me and my friend have actually found out something that could possibly help you with this achievement. We believe if you have tried using the above methods, but it nothing works, that if you still "DO NOT" have the "Dedication" achievement unlocked, that you should go for that achievement first.

During December 2018, I decided to help a group of people attempt to see if the "Dedication" achievement would unlock by playing a match to completion during December 2018, and then playing another full match to completion in January 2019, possibly forcing the achievement to unlock after that match.

My friend who failed to get the achievement scheduled in June 2018, participated in some matches in December 2018. He returned in January 2019 and after completing one match, he was amazed to tell me that the "Dedication" achievement unlocked for him. He then decided to stay as a body to keep the matches going. He then completed another match and he then had a shock... the "Tooled Up" achievement unlocked for him straight away!

Of-course, like with all the other methods provided, this is luck based as the online multiplayer for this game is very glitchy, which is an actual shame in my honest opinion. Should you wish to know how we did the December & January Method for the "Dedication" achievement, I will place in a link below...

Solution for Dedication In Crysis 2

Apart from all that, I wish you the very best of luck in getting this damn glitchy, annoying achievement!

This achievement has been known to be a bit gltchy, although I had no trouble with it.

As you level up in the multiplayer you'll unlock Gun Tags which mean you can purchase a new gun. Use these to buy all the primary/secondary guns and the explosives and the achievement will unlock.

You'll unlock the last Gun Tag at around level 45 and here's a list of what you need to purchase for the achievement to unlock:

  • Feline [Sub-Machine Gun]
  • K-Volt [Sub-Machine Gun]
  • Grendel [Assault Rifle]
  • Scarab [Assault Rifle]
  • DSG-1 [Sniper Rifle]
  • M20 14 Gauss [Sniper Rifle]
  • Jackal [Shotgun]
  • Marshall [Shotgun]
  • MK.60 Mod 0 [Heavy]
  • L-Tag [Heavy]
  • X-43 MIKE [Heavy]
  • Hammer [Secondary]
  • AY69 [Secondary]
  • Majestic [Secondary]
  • Hammer [Secondary]
  • M34 Flash Bang [Concussion Grenade]
  • JAW [Explosive]
  • C4 [Explosive]

Perks do not count toward this achievement. If by any chance you've brought everything listed above and the achievement hasn't unlocked, you may need to either play a few more games for it to register or get to level 50 and prestige. But before you prestige make sure you have brought everything. The last alternative that may fix it is to equip everything from each gun, its attachments.

Above are just ideas I'm throwing about to save you from really doing the leveling up grind all over again. If none of these methods work, then you have 2 choices. Level up to rank 45 again and buy everything again or wait for a possible patch from Crytek.

ghost78 There is no need to confuse people. Guys, the trophy opens normally without glitches, as soon as you get a module for a weapon, we IMMEDIATELY buy any of the weapons. My friends who saved up modules up to 45 levala, lost with this trophy, since the last module did not fall out. DON'T SAVE, BUY EVERYTHING IN ORDER.

As it was written earlier, the trophy is like Russian roulette, I will describe how I got it.

I didn’t save up tokens, I bought everything in order, I ran around with each type of weapon in the match and the trophy dropped at level 42, I didn’t even have time to buy C4, I probably need to buy all the guns first, and only then explosives and so on, but I’m not sure about that. The game version is digital.

I received a token for 45 lvl, opened the last 20th weapon (I have C4) and the trophy dropped.

For those who didn’t succeed with the methods above or simply didn’t get the trophy, don’t worry.
We do this:
We pump up to level 50, then we collect another 75 thousand points and reset the nanosuit.
Now let's level up to level 5, a custom class will open up - select it and play one match in any mode.
Congratulations on your trophy, tested on two boosters.

A trophy from the Russian Roulette category. I played from the disc version... I didn’t use tokens much... I just pumped up the Scarab to the maximum. I started buying all the weapons after level 43. I didn’t buy everything in a row, but in scattered quantities. The last purchase was a flashbang grenade at level 45. After it, a trophy dropped. My friend was less fortunate... he played from the digital version. He carefully bought all the weapons in a row, used all the tokens. But at level 42, all his statistics were reset to zero. As a result, he did not receive the trophy. I rebooted the suit. Statistics remained the same as it was. He reached level 20, but the trophy never dropped. In the end, he simply gave up on the game.

A bug has been discovered in the game that will help us with this trophy.

Instructions:

1. We pump up to level 37 and get a token for a weapon, but DO NOT SPEND it.

2. Level up further to level 39 and open the remaining weapons.

3. Use the token on any unopened weapon - open it and immediately exit multiplayer to the main menu

4. We go back to multiplayer and we will have this token again, use it on another weapon and exit.

And we do this on every weapon that is not open.

The dumbest trophy, because... buggy, we don’t spend tokens on guns right away, we wait until lvl 45, they give us the last token,

at 43 the last one. You need to buy carefully and slowly, otherwise you will fly by, bought it, put it in a classroom, etc.

All guns will open at level 39, there are 20 of them in total: 4 pistols, 4 grenades (including a bazooka), 12 main weapons.
