How to unlock the Grade A achievement in NHL 10 - Definitive Guide
*** Alot of people are complaining of this being glitched.. i thought the same thing, i got plenty of A ratings and even A+ ratings when my character was in the AHL but i unlocked it when my character joined the NHL, first game, A rating, duddle-da-dup, achievement unlocked. Hope this helps
If you basically play in position or follow the guideline arrow, you will do well for position. If you pass to teammates, check, or get assists, you will do well at team player. Getting a +/- above zero, getting assists, or especially scoring goals will get you a great rating for stats.
Do well in all 3, and you'll finish with an A or better.
Note that this achievement may be glitched, or may require A+ (not just A) to unlock.
Overall: A
P. Score A-
T. Play A-
Stats A+
and it unlocked. Good luck
Then I discovered this achievement, and I thought I could gain them simultanesly - but after trying a couple of times, I read the other solutions to this achievement, and thought I would let it be for the time being,.
After getting the Star Power, I went on to the next game, and didn't do very well i this game - got like B overall I think.. but the achievement popped for some reason, so perhaps it pops after you complete another game after you gained the A rating in a game.
Set your season to rookie and play your first game with the BAP character. Since it is on rookie, you can easily get goals and assists. You should get the first star your first game. Do well and you'll end up with a Rank A + overall. This will come within the first few games and the achievement will unlock at the end of the match. If it doesn't unlock, erase your old save and start a new one.
I dont think it is glitched but I might be wrong!
But if it is I believe that you get this achievement when you get your first A+ average rating because thats how i got it after my 12nd NHL game.
I believe the describtion is wrong or that it can possible unlock when you dont get A+ average rating but dont count on it.
In any way here is how I hope to help anyone who read this!
Play rookie difficulty!
DONT pick C as your pro player!
Reason is that it is very hard to get A on Team Play.
I got the ach being Left Wing and the most important thing is to shoot a lot at your opponents goalie. Early on i kept passing other players but what gives you good Team Play rating is to make many attempts at making a goal. Try to avoid offside and penalties.
But it is also very important to know how to move your player to get A or better at position.
For stats you get an A+ if you manage to score or make some assists.
Easiest way to get the achievement however is probably to be a goalie. In my first NHL match I managed to get A+ and that was after being horrible at the match before I got drafted. I choosed butterfly style but dont think it mattered but in case it actually helped me I want to mention that.
I just made sure to follow the blue arrow all the time and my team won 4-1.
Position is extremely easy as a goalie. Just follow the blue arrow!
Team Play i got A- so that can be the hard part as I dont think you can let the other team score so much. However sooner or later (sooner in my case) the other team might not get so many score attempts. And also whey they do you probably save most of them.
So if you just for some reason started the game. Go first to win 5 matches as a pro goalie while trying to get this achievement. (2 birds in one hit as they say).
Oh and my stats as goalie was A+ in this match!
If this guide helped 1 player im happy!
I know this is an outdated game when im writing this but this guide would have helped me a lot of frustration.
This trophy has been very buggy for many people. To get this, you will need to earn an overall A for your players grade. Make sure that you pass the puck, score at least one goal, and get no penalties. If you get a penalty, make sure that the other team does not score and make sure you intercept some passes from the other team and block some shots. You can set the game to Rookie difficulty and adjust sliders in your favor to make it easier.
*Tip* If you don't get this trophy after meeting the requirements, you have to start a new BAP save. No need to delete any saves. *Tip*
