How to unlock the Shot Caller achievement in NBA Jam: On Fire Edition - Definitive Guide

You rank up by playing games (duh)...more with winning. You get more XP by playing Road Trip and Arena (online) games. 62,300 XP is what is required to get to level 25. Getting JAM Challenges help boost your XP. You can view the status of your JAM Challenges at any time during a game by pressing START and selecting "JAM CHALLENGES".


***NOTE: This glitch may not work anymore***

There is a glitch to help you rank up a bit quicker. If you are close to the next level in any JAM Challenge (silver, gold, platinum, diamond), play a Road Trip game and once you level up that challenge, pause and select Restart Match. Play the game again and get level up again, repeat. At the end of the game, you will get multiple XP bonus for levelling up that Challenge.

This is easiest done with Jump Shots (2-point). Get within one jump shot of the next level, start a game, make the jump shot, pause, restart, do it again, and again.

Unfortunately the glitch didn't help me, at the end of my game it showed me receiving the XP 10 times, but never actually added it to my points or XP, and I didn't level up.

Have you done it before? I believe this will work only the 1st time.

I didn't think about that, it's possible that's what happened, I may have exited the match before actually finishing it prior to my restarts. But I didn't understand why it show my tally of xp, then didn't add it to my total, oh well.

I can now confirm that it didn't work for me, tried again as soon as I got a platinum again, it appeared to give me extra money, but not XP, not saying it doesn't work at all, just not for me, oh well, I'm at level 22 now, think I'll just end up getting it naturally. Thanks for the help.

If you play to get at least half of the road trip games and or going for platinum/diamond challenges you shouldn't have a problem with this. I have about 25-30 road trip games played and 2 platinum level and 3 gold level challenges completed and I'm sitting at level 20

You rank up by winning games and finishing JAM Challenges which give you varying amounts of XP. It requires 62,300XP to be ranked a 25. Example, getting a JAM Challenge to Diamond level awards you 5000XP. By the time you finish Road Trip you should be past level 25. You can earn XP towards your rank in any Game Mode, not just Road Trip.

Note: There is a glitch in the game to get as much XP as you want. Here are the step-by-step instructions:

  1. Get any JAM Challenge to within 1 of finishing it to Platinum. Example, make 249 Jump Shots (Platinum Level Challenge is 250).
  2. Now enter a Road Trip Game and make 1 Jump Shot to bring your total to 250 Jump Shots made, now pause the game and select Restart Match.
  3. Repeat step #2 as many times as needed to reach 62,300XP (Level 25). Example, you are at 10,000XP, so you need 52,300XP to reach level 25. So what you need to do is repeat step #2 11-times because each time you make a Jump Shot and restart the match, you will be given 5,000XP because the game thinks it is the first time you finished the JAM Challenge.


You do not need to wait until Platinum Level to do this, it can be done at any level, but in my opinion, it is faster this way.

My thanks to saurus for bringing this glitch to my attention!

You get XP points for every single game you play in the three game modes Jam Now, Road Trip, and Online Arena. There are various XP bonuses like just participate in matches, win matches, play on higher difficulty settings, play with random teams, play co-op, complete jam challenges, etc. The higher the level, the more distinguished logos and backgrounds will become available for you to purchase, and show off on your jam card. The maximum level cap is 50, so just play the game on, or offline and this trophy will unlock naturally.
