How to unlock the So Big and Shiny achievement in Monopoly Streets - Definitive Guide
I've played quite a few games now against 3 hard A.I. and often won (though the achievements for winning a game and for winning against 3 hard AI don't pop up :( ), I only ever seem to hit this 10K mark after bankrupting the last player. Any suggestions for what game mode, AI skill and any other tactics that will help to win more slowly I guess?
The first thing that you must do is have a total worth of $10,000. In doing this you will set yourself up for the achievement to end the game with a total worth of over $9,000. Once you have a worth of $10,000 or more then upgrade "Boardwalk" and "Park Place" to hotels and the achievement should pop.
Some ways to increase the amount of money available and to help build your net worth are doing things like: Pass go, collect $500, land on go, collected $1000, free parking $500. Players start with $2,500.
Turns out after my friend StupidDex and I played around with it for a little while that you can only achieve this while playing the MONOPOLY CITY board so obviously make sure that you are playing this board and the achievement will unlock.
You must play on the Monopoly City board to get this. In order to upgrade your Corporate HQ to it's largest upgrade, you must be worth more than $11000. Easiest way to do this is to start a 2-player custom rules game with all the properties being given out at the beginning of the game, the starting cash amounts at $2500 a person and $500 for passing GO. After the games begin, move around the board til you pass GO for the first time, then have player 2 trade you all his properties and money which should make your worth be just over $11000 (as long as you didn't have to pay anything as you went around the board). Once you're worth over $11000, you Corporate HQ will upgrade to it's largest upgrade and the trophy will pop!
