Mark and I played the entire campaign in co-op today. We didn’t get that achievement at the end though. I'm not sure why. Then we spent a lot of time hunting orbs. driving cars through stunt rings and battling security forces. It was a lot of fun.

We went right after the bosses to get to the final one. We beat the final one and no Lockout happened. The achievement was to survive the last Lockout attack. This is when the game sends all its forces after you, and you can’t access any of your supply sites. You have to destroy a certain amount of enemy to survive it. Usually, there is a Lockout right after a major boss. There was supposed to be one after the final boss, but nothing happened. I got one playing solo. I think what happened was that we didn’t beat one of the lesser bosses before taking on the big cheese. That’s my guess. The only solution would be to restart and do it all over again, which is something I would’ve been fine with, but there wasn’t enough time.

The whole time we were hunting orbs and that continued after the final boss. We travelled all the suspended train lines that circle the map high up in the air. We even brought an Agency Vehicle up there in case of stunt rings. Then we scoured the outsides of the biggest skyscrapers for orbs. The orbs high up and on the sides of buildings are some of the easiest ones to miss. So there was a lot of climbing and jumping from ledge to ledge.

There are orbs on the ground too and under bridges and between buildings. Down there it was easy to get attacked by security forces and then all hell would break loose. If you fight them long enough, Lockout occurs and then the real battle begins. I’ve maxed my rockets and bullets skills, so explosions were even bigger, and ammo was plentiful. It was just a ton of fun.

I’m at 93% of agility orbs, so I may go for all of them now. At only 55% of special orbs, I think that’ll get left unfinished. I may also continue my legendary run. I’ll see how I feel next week. I don’t see anything new to distract me in March.
