How to unlock the In the Spotlight achievement in ONRUSH - Definitive Guide
For this achievement to count, you have to be one of those 5 players but you cannot be MVP.
I found out yesterday when the daily challenge stated "spotlight" and it only counted when I was one of those 5 players at the end but not the MVP. I then checked with the achievement counter and can confirm that MVP does not count as being featured in the player spotlight, but anything else like "highest something" would.
This may be a bug and could be changed in the future as it somewhat punishes players for being good at the game ;)
Step 2: Set the mode to 'Countdown'
Step 3: Set the event length to 'Short'
Step 4: Set the difficulty to 'Very Easy'
Once the settings are just right, start the match. You will want to use 'Dynamo' as a vehicle. Once the match has started, you will need to get to max RUSH as soon as possible. With Dynamo, when you activate RUSH you will give boost to your teammates. Because this achievement doesn't work when you get MVP, only when you are in the spotlight. You need to make sure to miss the checkpoints completely and to let your team lose. At the end of the match, you should be in the spotlight for 'Most boost given'. This method only works 8/10 or so times.
At the end of each race, an MVP and two players from each team are featured in the spotlight. This trophy can seem a bit misleading because the player spotlight is not awarded when you earn MVP of the match but rather when you score the highest randomly chosen stat. This stat can be assists, Takedowns, time survived etc. I eventually earned this without trying but it was pretty close to the end of the game. If you haven't unlocked it after doing everything else, try getting a lot of takedowns, gate sprees or time survived depending on the game type. Just avoid being the highest scorer on your team!

Becoming the best player from both teams (appearing alone, first at the end of the match) does not automatically put you in the spotlight.
