The Ultimate Motorcross Racing Challenge![]

This game is the fourth game in the series, released in May 2011 uses the same system as it's predecessor (Reflex) in that you have to use both sticks to move and steer your rider as you navigate through difficult, realistic tracks. Riders and their bikes form ruts in the tracks as they whip around the tracks, making the game just that little bit more realistic!


In this game there is one DLC that I am aware of. This includes James Stewart's Super X Compound. I don't think there are any achievements for the DLC. There is a hidden vehicle though. It is hidden between the garages, and it as an MX50.

There is three hidden vehicles on MX vs ATV alive. There is a banshee with paddle tires on Devils Playground. And there is a hidden dirt bike on the other map. Here are some links to look at!

Testing the Waters

Bronze Trophy Icon

This is easier than it sounds. Just load up the free ride track "Devil's Playground" and go to the south end of the map where the water is. Then find a spot where the water cuts inland. There just take a huge running start running parallel with the water then where the water cuts inland just pull back on the right analog stick and just hydroplane until you lose momentum and sink. If the trophy doesn't pop up, just keep trying or try a different place along the coast. You do NOT have to do this without sinking, just hydroplane at least 120 feet and then you can sink into the water.

On the Right Track

For this trophy you can't stray away from the actual track. A tip for this is just go slower than you normally would because you don't have to win for this to pop up. Or another tip would be try a short track if a nationals track is too hard.

Wreck avoidance is where you use your rider reflex (right analog stick) to save yourself from wrecking. You will see an orange arrow pop up in one of 4 directions, just push the right analog stick in the directions of the arrow to save yourself from wrecking.

10Alive

Bully

Silver Trophy Icon

To overtake someone by using bar banging you just need to be bumping them and then pass them. If you're in a pack of riders and bump one of them who is ahead of you but then pass him that was an overtake by using bar banging. You will know that you won the bar bang if your rider does a celebratory motion or taunts the other rider. This should come over the course of normal gameplay or you could load up any track and just bump every rider you pass.

11Alive

Inverted

Bronze Trophy Icon

Find a good ramp in Free Ride, one with plenty of hang time. To do a backflip, hold down The trick modifier and pull back on the right analog stick as you're going up the ramp. If you can't get it at first, just keep trying and eventually you'll get the hang of it.

13Alive

13Alive

MotoSport Holeshot King

Bronze Trophy Icon

To get a holeshot you need to be the first rider into the first corner. If you can't get this one, try holding clutch and gas while you wait for the gates to drop. Then just figure out the exact timing you need to release the clutch. I've noticed that the other racers will start revving up their engines right before the gates drop, so use them to help judge your timing. Just get your timing right 3 times in a row. You do not have to complete 3 races to get this. Once it says "you got the Motosport Holeshot" in the bottom left of your screen you can restart. If you know for sure you won't get the holeshot, pause and restart the race and it won't count towards 3 in a row.

13Alive

YeeeeHawww

Bronze Trophy Icon

Find a flat stretch of land in Free Ride and come to a complete stop. Then pull back on the right analog stick as you hit the gas. Just keep the wheelie for 150 feet and then land it without wrecking. This may take a little bit of practice as you will have to try and balance your rider with the right analog stick for 150 feet. Just lean your rider forward if you start leaning back to far and vice versa, just keep trying and you will get the hang of it. ATV's can be a little easier to do this on.

13Alive

When It Counts

Bronze Trophy Icon

Just win the race without leading until the last lap, if you take the lead just try to get into 2nd place before you cross the finish line for the next lap or else you will need to restart. This one could possibly come from normal game play but if you're eager just try to stay as close to first without actually being in first until the last lap.

3Alive

Greatest of All Time

Gold Trophy Icon

Nothing too confusing about this one, just finish in first place at least once on every track. If you're having a tough time, race on Rookie difficulty.

13Alive
