How to unlock the Overly driven achievement in RAGE 2 - Definitive Guide
I got a X10 after only 10 seconds or less in the area. It has a mutant nest (aka "Mutie Nest" in the game) and the mutants just keep running at you. No armor guys from what I remember. I just used the assault rifle. I wast even trying and I looked down to see my multiplier maxed out. I'm sure any mutie nest will work but the one I used is in the Torn Plains region, right in the middle bottom just as you cross into the region from the Broken Tract region. I got a X10 here MANY times without even trying. I am pretty sure the enemies are infinite as long as the mutant pods have not been destroyed.
===============
Edit 2: If you have the smart rocket (In the strongbox ark located in the right center of the Torn Plains region); when using it with overdrive, it's pretty crazy and can eliminate a ton of enemies at once.
===============
I found a very easy place to get this close to the beginning of the game. I found this place immediately after completing the "Blackout" story mission, which is the mission you get the shotgun in. Could get this 2 or 3 times in this area in one go. I bet there is 30 enemies here. The annoying thing about this area is that there is a lot of armor enemies but if you hit them with the slug rounds my holding the left trigger with the shotgun they are not too bad. They can be bullet sponges so make sure you kill them and not just send them flying 40 feet back.
You can make a save at the beginning of the area just in case. If you feel like you are going to fail, just let them kill you and it will start you right at the beginning of the base. Took me maybe 3 or 4 tries.
The area is called Yeoman Growery and it's a Bandit Den in the Northern part of Broken Tract. I HIGHLY recommend having the shot gun as it was the main gun that I used. Make sure you buy the project that unlocks the ability to get to a X10 multiplier. It's located in the basic project upgrades and cost 1 point to unlock. I ran into this area throwing grenades everywhere. Took out the guys up front and then ran through the middle letting them all run at me from all directions and then activating the overdrive. I believe overdrive makes this a lot easier. So if you want try and go through the project upgrades and buy the stuff that helps overdrive and maybe the ones that allow you to carry more throwables and ammo.
This achievement has a very simple, reliable way of accomplishing it. The first thing you'll need is the second skill in the basic project skill tree, which extends your possible overdrive multiplier to X10.
Afterwards, go to any mutie nest. Once in, shoot a couple of there egg... nest things to get a lot of them to spawn. Run around in circles for a few seconds to bunch them all together, and mow them down. You could probably use any weapon in the game to accomplish this, but the slam ability (especially with vortex skill) is easily the most satisfying. Also it helps you quite a bit on your way to this other achievement.
That said, if you want to use the rocket launcher instead, the same idea applies to this achievement.

From there you will need to find a decently sized goon base or mutant infested encampment. Also if you have the shotgun you can build up the overdrive and when you unleash that on the shotgun you get a widespread shot and kill anything in front of you. You could use the assault rifle as well. I would suggest going to a mutant nest and getting a few kills to build the over drive then once you have that gather up some mutants by running round a bit. Once you have at least ten or so then use the over drive shotgun or assault rifle ability to take them all our in just a few shots. This will build your over all multiplier to 10X to unlock the achievement.
To reach an Overdrive multiplier, you need to kill enemies in quick succession of each other. This will happen plenty of times as you play through the game and will be even easier once you upgrade the project 'overdrive multiplier' in the basics menu. Use Mutant Bash TV or mutant nests to gain easy multipliers. The nests have hordes of enemies running at you constantly until you clear them, giving you plenty of time to earn the trophy.
To reach an Overdrive multiplier of any amount you need to kill enemies within quick succession of each other. This is very likely to occur many times as you play through the game, but if for whatever reason you haven't managed this, you can unlock it during Mutant Bash TV. Play the normal challenge and then get yourself into the final round. The mutants here will spawn in big numbers and you can easily get 10 or more kills within quick enough succession to earn a multiplier of 10.
