How to unlock the There is no try achievement in Star Wars Outlaws - Definitive Guide
Tips: you don't have to go for EVERY boost, there is a section around the minute that you can go to one side and skip the other, the goal is to keep the momentum and that gives you some leeway. The rest is just repetition and repetition, specially the last part. As with all rhythm lanes games, you'll quickly realize that it's better if you focus on the higher part of the screen instead of focusing on your vehicle, so you can see things in advance to prepare the appropriate reaction.
In the very first boost, you can get two boosts if you quickly tap right. It gives you a slight advantage.
Dotted throughout Star Wars Outlaws’ galaxy are numerous arcade game machines (you’ll come across your first very early on in Canto, in an old amusement arcade on the way to Club Tarsus).
Whether you decide to play in Canto or in Mirogana or the like, to get the ‘There is no try’ achievement, you need to get the top score in one of two games:
- Rider - High Score: 1.20:51 - This racer of sorts is like a simple version of Wipeout, where you need to hit the yellow pads to keep your speed up, avoid the obstacles, and get to the finish line as quickly as possible. To get the top score here, just bear in mind that you don’t have to get every yellow pad, so it’s better to play it safe sometimes and just make sure you don’t lose your speed by hitting an obstacle. It might take a few attempts, but it’s very doable.
- Raven 6 - High Score: 27,800 - This is a shooter, effectively, where you’re the gunner on an on-rails ship. The important thing here is to focus on destroying the asteroids as soon as you see them as they will break your combo, and then shoot the ships as you see them for the rest of the time. If you can line it up so the ships go through where you’re shooting too, that’s fab and will save you a lot of time. The key to a top score in Raven 6 is maintaining that combo and then using the Smart Bomb throughout - you can use about 3 if you're hitting your targets, just make sure you have one primed for the end of the level when everything spawns at once. Keep it going and you’ll get a high score in no time - especially if you learn where the asteroids and the ships are coming from.
Once you hit that high score, the ‘There is no try’ achievement will unlock.
