How to unlock the What countdown? achievement in Spy Hunter - Definitive Guide

To unlock this trophy, you will need to disarm four (4) bombs in less than 40 seconds. I thought this was an impossible accomplishment at first. But after many attempts, I realized that the counter doesn’t start as soon as the mission starts as the set up and trophy description suggest. Although I’m not exactly sure as to when the timer begins, I can safely say it doesn’t start at the beginning of the level. Follow the below instructions to efficiently obtain this trophy.
 

  • The first thing you need to do to unlock this trophy is to double tap to boost immediately at the beginning of the mission.
  • Drive to the first bomb on the right, watch the cutscene and go through the motions, you should leave this bomb with no more than 15 seconds on the clock.
  • Once you go through the motions and regain control of your Interceptor, boost to the left towards the next bomb. Start to brake early so you stop directly in the center of the highlighted circle.
  • Now boost straight ahead and to the left for the next bomb. Like with the last bomb, brake early so as to stop in the circle. You want to be finished with this bomb at about the 40 second mark.
  • Finally, boost out of there and follow the right path to the final bomb. Stop in the circle to defuse it. If you did all of this within 40 seconds, then you will have a new gold trophy. If not, then restart mission and try again. Note: I obtained this trophy by disarming this final bomb at the 54 second mark.

To get this trophy you need to defuse all four bombs in 40 seconds or less. The timer starts counting from the moment you enter the territory of the power plant - you pass the first control point, which is installed at the gate of the power plant. It is from this moment that the 40 seconds countdown begins. It will take you about 5-7 seconds to travel from the truck to the gate. As a result, you will receive this trophy if, at the moment of clearing the last mine, you have 52-54 seconds on the counter - depending on how quickly you covered the distance to the gate. You need to accelerate as much as possible while at the power plant, moreover, while clearing mines 2 and 3, you need to start accelerating and moving when the mine is almost cleared, so that when the green bar reaches the end you are already in motion. I recommend leaving this trophy for the very end, by which time you will already have a very good understanding of the mechanics of the game and will be able to get this trophy in 3-4 attempts.
