How to unlock the Lightning Looter achievement in Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days - Definitive Guide

Subway is ok but i found bridge much easier, as you enter the train kill the 3 that go down the front then get all the money off the train then kill the remaining mercs you should only have to kill about 3-5 cops, run to the helicopter you should have about 3 minutes left or more then repeat the process again.

Hope This Guide Helps You.

Also If You Give Negative Feedback State Why In The Comments And I Will Try And Improve It.

After numerous useless tries on Subway, I got it on Bridge on second try. Thx a lot for the vid. Although I have one advice left. Enable the steady camera in options, it becomes a considerable amount easier.

When I was trying to get the achievement, in round 1 it was easy to get 4milions$ but in 2 they all were running straight to the chopper and always at least one of my teammates got away.. But finally I've figured it out. When You kill those 3 guys in front of a train (round 2), sometimes one of them has shotgun. And thats it, if you get one its easy to take them one by one - even if they're running away. But remember - aim for the upper chest and head (it takes maximum two shots from a medium distance). But anyway GREAT solution - thanks mate :-)

Lot easier than Subway, I went to the back of the train though, take out the two at the back then run forward and the 3 at the front, be careful though as the rest of the team shoot at you as you go through the train and take the rest out on the way to the chopper. You need 8 mil but you do get bonus for kills etc I bought the 240k machine gun as I had so much bonus at the end of round 1, also if you die you will have to restart as the timer counts, I did the 1st on 4.1mill died on the 1st go of round 2 and passed the second time and escaped with 8.35 mill didnt pop. Finally it pops at the start of round 3, my round timer clock at the end was 3.20 and 2.50 hope this helps

Doesnt grab all 4 mil/round at all.
I grab 4 mil on 1st round and the 2nd round only 3.85 mil.
But I kill some SWAT guys & police till I hv over 4 mil score & still got the achievement.
Btw, instead of go to the middle loot point I go to the back as most AI dont grab any money at the back if u do like the video.
Thx for the guide anyway

Much more efficient than Subway, thank you.

Also, I just ran straight up the left side of the bridge and didn't bother killing a single cop and never took enough damage for my screen to tint red. Managed to do it with just over a minute spare.

Work pretty well, thank for the video guide too.

Every round include summary in first 2 rounds can reach 4.1-4.2 million for me and took me near 3 minutes in these 2 rounds.(2nd round a bit longer than 3 minutes but the achievement still pop up.)

Took a long time but this method eventually works. Try to get close to 3:00 on the first round, second round I bought an assault rifle and shotgun which helped quite a bit.

If for any reason you die after getting the money in the first round, you can retry doing it until you run out of life. I got 4 million in the first round, then died in the second, and did get another 4 million in the third round and got the achievement. Of course the two must be under 6 minute.

I reach over $8 million under the 6 minute playtime mark and still don't get the achievement, am I missing out on something?

Edit: Nvm, I got the achievement in 2 rounds. Thanks!

To add few things :

- just to confirm that you don't need all the 4.000.000$ if you get some kills that cover up your treachery ( -25K ) or if you kill a civilian by mistake ( -10K ), so as long as you see 4M or a bit more at the end of the round with all the bonuses, you're good.

- I tried quite a few times and failed miserably a lot. Mainly because some of my guys were getting to the chopper or I didn't have enough money, so I changed a bit the strategy shown in video : I ran along the train and let my partners deal with cops outside; once inside I DIDN'T KILL the cop but ran past him to the right and started getting money while my guys deal with him ( he usually kills someone as well ). After a few seconds I start shooting in the middle, getting a guy or two, and only after that going to the back and killing another three. This way I never screwed myself because only two or three guys make it outside to the bridge and while they deal with cops and swat, I kill them and get the money, then run straight to the chopper. This was the only way I managed to do it, otherwise there is always someone that escapes - means you can restart.

-Also, if you failed the first round, just restart the game, don't go to the second round since enemies are stronger and you're weaker.
A lot of patience, this one.

Hey I can confirm that you can die in the second round, as long as you do it in 6 literal game time minutes then it'll give it to you. What happened to me was I got all of the loot in the first round with your method, (completed the round with 3:24 remaining) died twice in a row on the second round right in the beginning due to bull shit circumstances with the three cops that come out of the train, and then successfully was able to get away with all of the loot on my third try of the second round using your method again obviously (with 3:14 remaining). I do not know if it doesn't count the time you used before dying or not. I can't tell because like I said I died right in the beginning both times, so even if the time is cumulative between failing the rounds I would've only used up at most a total of 10 seconds, when I had 38 seconds to spare, so who knows.
Sorry for the long story, I just thought that would make your great solution even better if you added something about failing the rounds by accident or something lol.

Alternatively, if you're having too much trouble with the Bridge, you can try Subway like I did. I noticed the crooks like to bag snatch and then run threw the blown hole in the wall into the train station. If you watch carefully, all 7 of them bunker down on the left side infront of a stopped train with it's lights on. If you go back into the bank vault, you'll notice a single fire extinguisher on the wall behind a thin pillar. Grab the extinguisher. Run back over to the others then throw it as good as you can and shoot it when you feel the time is right. A good toss will kill 5 to 6 of them. I manage to get 5 of them everytime.

Gun down the 2 survivors. Start getting the 4 mil. Grab the stash, then book it! Head to the far right staircase and kill anything in your way. When you get up top, watch your right, there should be 2 to 3 S.W.A.T. Officers pinned down behind the turnstalls. Kill them. Run up the second flight of stairs and into the street. Watch your 2 o'clock (front right). 2 more swat stand between you and victory. I managed to do this in 3:32 seconds the 1st round. On the 2nd round, don't buy any new weapons. It'll be a bit more difficult, but you can shake, duck, and dodge your way free. My time for round 2, was exactly 2:56. The achievement should pop when you quit after round 2. You don't need to go any further. I hope this helps or is easier. I don't own a video camera, so I tryed to be as discriptive as possible.

another thing i found to be extremly helpful is, since you cant buy weapons, pick up a SWAT gun, it is much more powerful than your stock weapons. only if its not out of the way, youre on a time limit.

After many attempts the crooks never once bunkered down like you said.They get loot and all go in differant ways never staying together.I guess it got patched,your solution no longer works.

This guide will make this achievement so much easier for you!

First off a few tips:

Once you get in the chopper the timer going down does not matter anymore, it will go under 3 minutes maybe due to the chopper flying away and loading times but this does not affect your actual playtime, as long as you make it into the chopper with 3 minutes or more each time you will be good to get this achievement.

ALWAYS aim between the center of the torso and head area for maximum damage when killing the criminals and the cops.

Go into the options and turn on steady camera, this will make your life easier.

Now for the guide:

>Arcade

>Bridge

>Start level

Now as soon as you spawn run to the right along the side of the train that's empty and enter the train at the first door you can, when you get to the door on your left there will be a cop, I would hip fire him to save time and once he's dead you want to go into the door on your left of where you entered and start grabbing the cash at the back most part of this room.

Once the other criminals enter this room you want to open fire immediately and take out the 2 that will be in the room with you, then run to the front of the train straight ahead of you immediately after they are dead and kill the 3 guys in the front of the train, ignoring the money (for now). Once they are dead run back to where you were but stop at the middle carriage and there may be the remaining 2 guys in this room or they'll be outside the train to the right of you (on the side you initially spawned into this match on) quickly kill them (they may have money but don't grab it until you have the rest, continue reading) and go to the front of the train and start grabbing all the money and work your way back to the room where you killed the first 2 guys, grabbing all the money along the way (now grab the other possible money outside). You should have about 4:30-4:00 minutes left at this point (maybe more), depending on how good/fast you are, as well as 4 million dollars or more depending on if you killed everyone which you should have no matter what, if you didn't just restart, the spawns can sometimes differ but it's rare and this guide totally revolves around killing everyone which isn't hard.

Once you've got all the money proceed to the exit on the side you spawned initially and run up the big broken ramp part of the bridge, there may be 1-2 cops here, possibly one by the broken piece of wall outside the train, one up by the van/car on the right side of the ramp your running at the bottom and possibly at the top of the bridge on your side. Just keep running and and kill any cops that you have to along the way, from long range you can take quite a bit of damage, you may get knocked down but you aren't dead. (Bare in mind that the criminals and cops/S.W.A.T are extremely deadly up close and will kill you in a split second if you are not careful)

Now ESCAPE and repeat this guide once more and you are done.

I was able to unlock this trophy in the Subway map after MANY attempts. The entire map contains $4m in loot, so for two consecutive rounds you have to collect ALL of the cash and escape in the getaway van. Try to do this in the first two rounds since they are the easiest, and your goal should be to spend about 2.5 to 3 minutes per round.

At the very beginning, sprint down the escalator and take out the guards in the vault as quickly as possible. Collect as much cash as possible and head back out. When you are back in the subway tunnel, head right to the first pillar and pick up the fire extinguisher. By this time, you should see that the majority of your crew is taking cover in the tracks ahead of you, so run towards them and detonate the canister in their vicinity. Some will be killed instantly and the others will be downed, so finish off any that you can and collect their loot. If two or three are still alive at this point, that is actually OK because they prove very helpful in taking out the swarm of police in the waiting area. Head up the escalator on the left hand side - if you are progressing efficiently you should see about 4 minutes remaining on the timer. Take out the rest of your cronies and once again collect their cash. At this point, if you do not have at least $4mm in cash that means you left some lying around somewhere and should most likely start over. Based on the remaining enemies, you now have to decide if you want to head up the left or right stairs. Use cover effectively but do not waste a lot of time firing at the cops. If there are one or two in front of you, make a run for it and kill them if they are in your line of fire. Once in the street, watch out for the remaining enemies and head for your escape. If you did it in under 3 minutes you are in good shape, but now you have to do it all over again in the next round.

If done in under six minutes, the trophy will pop a bit after the start of the third round. Alternatively, check out the video below with tips for obtaining the trophy in the Bridge map.

Much thanks to Youtube's cbkste for creating the video!

You don't have to collect all the money. You should end up with $8,000,000. After completing the first round, you are given $150k for completing the task. This money also COUNTS! Therefore, if in the first round you collected all the money, then in the second, you don’t have to collect absolutely everything, but it becomes at the figure of 3,800.00, you can also get money by killing your partners and cops.

You can get this trophy on the METRO map, although how many attempts it will take you is unknown. The entire map contains $4,000,000, so you must collect ALL the money in two rounds and escape in the van. Try to do this in the first two rounds as they are the easiest. Your main goal is to spend everything collecting all the money in about 2.5 minutes per round.
