    Lightbulb Come to Poppa! and Locust, Forever! TIPS (Easy way to get the Achievements)

    Seeing as everyday when I come and check the forums, I always see gearheads asking for help getting a full 5-man team to get these 2 achievements. So why not make a thread (and if possibly a sticky ) on tips on how to get both achievements fast and easy.

    Achievements:
    Come to Poppa!
    Won a versus multiplayer match as a team of five Recruit Claytons (any mode)

    Locust, Forever!
    Won a versus multiplayer match as a team of five Savage Marauders (any mode)

    These are both easy to get if not for the five man requirement but miraculously, there is a work around especially if you don't have many friends in xbl.

    So here goes:

    If you have a spare controller, log in as guest. ( credits to @kylempcp) or....invite 1 player to get both achievements and follow these simple steps:

    1. Use spare controller and log in as guest or Invite 1 player (Someone who has the Forces of Nature DLC)
    2. Both of you (duh) equip Recruit Carmine skin for COG and Savage Marauder skin for Locust
    3. Go to - Versus - Forces of Nature - Brothers to the End mode (it negates the 5 man team that is needed, trust me. I got this using this technique)
    4. Play and WIN matches using both skins (you have to win in order for the achievement to unlock)
    5. Get the achievements
    6. Have fun with this awesome game!

    So there you have it folks! Simple and easy to get.

    Hope these tips would help everyone in acquiring both achievements in no time.

    Peace out!

    think this can be done with a spare controller? (i honestly have no friends that play gears anymore)

    EDIT: completed it with a spare controller, it's possible!

    Great tip. I'll give it a go when I get home. Wasn't looking forward to trying to organise 5 man teams. Ugh. Thanks again for the tip.

    Is it alright if I add the link to this thread to the GoW 3 Achievement Help thread? This is a helpful thread and it would be a great addition to my thread.

    That would be awesome! Go ahead sir, I have no problem with that.

    Anything to help out gearheads is mighty fine by me.

    Hey guys, good tips.

    Another thing that a lot of people dont realise is that you can get both of these achievements in Private bot matches. Just get your 5 guys, select both multiplayer characters, and play against Casual bots. Switch teams, rinse and repeat.

    Wish I could do this private. I have no friends and I cant use two controllers at the same time, besides I always lose anyway. So frustrating. If I find a match where I'm alone, it doesn't take long before someone joins and ruins the party.

    No, requirement is standard versus.

    However, seeing as BttE is no longer available, this is null. Although if they bring it back it's still very viable.

    Yes you can do this in private mode versus bots. Just as long as you get a full 5 man team in. The requirement says any mode and it's already tried and tested bro.

    Hmm, weird. Could have been changed or something, as I got a group of friends and did private with nothing happening.

    Sorry for the accidental lie :/
