FIFA 12

Alright well this achievement is pretty self explanatory... Reach Level 20.

This achievement is pretty time consuming as there is a 2000xp cap each day, Meaning if you get more than 2000xp it wont go towards your overall level.

Some useful tips:

.Starting up FIFA 12 (10xp)
.Starting a Career mode (10xp)
.Any accomplishments for your virtual pro (10xp)
.Playing online ranked matched can gain you anywhere from 10-200xp

After you have reached your cap another way to make 600xp is by doing the daily challenge. To see the daily challenge go to the main menu and press BACK this will bring up a menu that will contain Leaderboards, Challenges and News Feed. Go to challenge and complete it for a nifty 600xp.

Thanks to JDA27 for the info: The 600xp for the daily challenge isn't consistent. And i don't think they are "daily" as such as the North London derby one lasted 72 hours!

I will include a video how to accomplishment boost your Virtual Pro which will gain you a lot of XP.

Hopefully this helps in some way :)

Easiest way to boost your daily XP on your own is with 2 controllers.

Go to Kick Off > Exhibition Match.

Now move your second controller onto the away team and press A to Advance.

Pick any team and any kit with each controller.

Now go to game settings and change the Half Length to 4 minutes and the difficulty to Legendary. Press A to Advance and then Play Match.

Score a goal with your main controller, kick off again with the 2nd controller and now just wait until half time and then start the second half. Again just wait until the match is over.

You should receive 237XP for winning a game on Legendary difficulty which means you only need to play 9 matches to reach your daily XP cap of 2000. It should take you around 1 hour and 45 minutes to finish 9 matches.

You can also do the challenge for between 500-700 extra XP, usually every 3 days.

UPDATE: The servers for this game are no longer online, so all online achievements in this game are now discontinued.

Another simple method for 60/80 pts min...

Play a career ( you need to win the cup and league) with your pro and save the game before the last match.
Reload your save and sim the next match, 30+30 pts for wining two trophies with maybe 20 pts if you are the man of the match.
Quit without save and reload your previous save. Rinse and repeat ;-)

If you really just want the XP without playing the 10 or so games in a day it takes to hit the cap do the following:

Kick off > Be a Pro
Team selection: Choose two evenly matched teams.
Match Settings: Set match duration to shortest duration (*or longest if you want to grind 50 hours on the field at the same time), set difficulty to Legendary.
Player team customization, crank up the pace, passing & shooting sliders 5 points
CPU team customization, crank down the pace, passing & shooting sliders 5 points.

Start the match, set an alarm for MATCH_LENGTH+20%. When your alarm goes off it's time to come back to start the second half (or set up a rematch at the end of full time). Rinse/repeat.

The reason for setting the match up as above is to ensure that you always win, but that you don't win by too much. Every goal you score wastes time with celebrations and replays (you are not there to skip them, remember), ideally you just want to win by a couple of goals every match. This is far more important if you are doing 20 minute halves. I over-did the sliders on my first attempt and it was 26-0 with only 15 minutes on the in-game clock when my alarm went off!

I'm doing this at the same time as grinding the 50 hours achievement (because FUT doesn't count for 50 hours on the pitch achievement) so I'm playing with 20 minute halves (setting my timer for 24 minutes, which is enough that the half has completed 99% of the time when I return to the game to continue).

Halfway through re-watching BSG season 3 while I do it :)

I started a player/manager tournament and switched Manchester united into the Australian league. I hired 3 scouts, created an network of scouts afterwards for all 3 and immediately returned them. 30 points for creating the networks a day. besides the experience you earn for winning a match this should get you the 2000 experience a day.

When you've done this look if there is a kick off challenge which should get you between 500 and 1000 experience if you succeed. For the level 20 you need about 48000 experience which should take 24 days if you don't complete the kick off challenges, otherwise I think it should be possible in about 18

By far the fastest way to get this is to go into an UNRANKED head to head match lobby and set up a game with 2 minute half lenght.
Wait for someone to join and just play the game.
Win lose draw dont matter. You will get around 200 xp no matter what as long as you FINISH the game. Just do this a couple times a day untill you reach the daily 2000xp cap and when theres a Challenge just play that too obviously.
Doing this everyday will get you the cheev in no time.

UPDATE 01 DEC 16

Just pitching in to anyone else like me who hasn't played this in years because of discontinued achievements...

I dusted off my 360, downloaded 47,000 updates and started FIFA 12 and was instantly awarded this achievement.

So for anyone who hasn't played in a while, throw your game in and see if you're surprised as well..
