2. - What are milestones?
Milestones are bonuses that add to your stats. For example: if 2 of the exact
same characters were maxed in stats but one had more milestones than the other,
he would be stronger. If you want to see this for yourself go make 2 characters
in story mode with the same fighting style then get one character to unlock a
milestone and compare his stats on the choose fighter screen in battle mode,
they will be higher than the character with no milestones. They are shown in
the Gym in story mode where you add points to your stats. They are represented
by dots and a percentage, each dot is worth 20%. There are 5 milestones per
stat equaling in 100% for each stat. The dots are filled in when you unlock a
milestone. The game never tells you when you unlock a milestone so you must
constantly check back in story mode to see if it's unlocked.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

4. - Before We Begin
Make sure you have 2 controllers. The time it would take without 2 controllers
would really suck. You take player 1 and leave the second controller on the
ground as a dummy for you to beat up on. Getting all the milestones as fast as
possible still takes a long time but without 2 controllers I guess it would
take four times as long, I don't even want to think about that. A general
understanding of the game is required for this guide; I hope you know how to do
moves. All of the unlocking can be done in Battle mode (which is multiplayer by
the way) so no need to go against any of the computer opponents in this. I
recommend only doing 1 milestone per stat per match just so you know which
milestone you got. So you can do 1 milestone from each stat per match if you'd
like. Once you think you've completed a milestone go check your character in
single player and see if you got the milestone. If you didn't, then go do
another match and do some more of the requirements. The requirements do not
have to be filled in 1 match. Just as long as you save your character you can
take as many matches as you want to do these. I would also suggest doing a bit
more then the requirements just to be sure so you don't have to waste 5 minutes
doing a fight for a few measly punches.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
5. - Upper Body Milestones
You can get 2 milestones from learning the streetfighting fighting style and 1
milestone from learning the wrestling fighting style.
5a. - 100 Punches
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Punching a guy (or girl) 100 times is extremely easy and can be done in about a
minute and a half. Basically just punch once and don't go into a combo, I found
it was faster just to do single punches one after another then go into combos
and have to pick the other player up, but I didn't extensively test this so if
you figure out that your fighting style is faster with the combos then just do
that. If you can count to 100 you've got it. Punch 'em 10 extra times just for
good measure just incase you miscounted. The punches must be done while
standing up, they do not count if the enemy is on the ground and you do a
ground attack, he must be on his feet.
5b. - 5000 Punches
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well punching someone 5000 times is easy but extremely long and boring. Don't
bother counting with this one. If you want to know how long it will take you
what you can do is punch the other character for a minute and see how many
punches you can get off. Then just open up your calculator and do 5000/(your
number). I did about 60 punches per minute so that's 83 minutes of punching.
Yes I know it's not cool but you want to be strong right?
*User Submitted - Quen*
I know a REAL easy way you can get 5000 kicks/punches without being there to
land every single punch/kick. heres what you need..
2 Controllers (One of them has to be Turbo)
A rubber band, maybe even 2. (to hold down the punch/kick button)
Anyway heres what you do: plug in controller 1 as the turbo controller, and
then the second controller neutral. now choose your created fighter and any
other character (still neutral) and then start the battle (maybe in a cage
so no one gets pushed back). when the battle starts, pause the game, turn the
Turbo on, and then wrap the rubber band around the punch/kick button. then on
the second controller, get another rubber band (or wrap the controller cord)
so the Left Analog stick/Thumb Stick makes the 2nd player move in any
direction and gets up automatically so you dont worry about punching/stomping
him to death. after doing that you can go to sleep, go to work, go to school,
maybe even grocery shopping. when you come back, the Kicks/punches should
accumulate by a mile when you get back. so just KO your opponent (whatever way
you feel like) and then go to story mode. you should have the milestone then.
dont forget to turn your Rumble/Vibration off
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
6. - Lower Body Milestones
You can get 2 milestones for learning the kickboxing fighting style and 1
milestone for learning the submissions fighting style.
6a. - 100 Kicks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you read the upper body milestones then you basically know how to get this.
Both characters must be standing up for the kicks to count.
6b. - 5000 Kicks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Read the upper body milestones, it's the same idea, just a different button.
Depending on your fighting style, the time it takes may vary.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
7. - Speed
You can get 2 milestones from learning the martial arts fighting style and 1
milestone from learning the kickboxing fighting style.
7a. - 250 Running Attacks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This basically consists of you taking 2 steps back and doing a running attack
at the other character and knocking him down. Pick him back up again and
repeat. Only 248 more to go!
7b. - Running for 250 seconds
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This should be done after the 250 running attacks milestone because that will
build up some running time. You have to be efficient. If your doing these
milestones in order then this will be the first one you have that requires a
little more involvement. You can't run forever, no that would be too easy, the
amount of time you can run is based off how close you are until you get a
blaze. The bar is also like a stamina bar for running and when you run you use
it up, don't worry, when you run you don't actually lose your bar. We want to
run for longer periods of time so what you have to do if beat up the other
character until your character is ready to blaze. But don't blaze just yet, you
now have unlimited stamina so start running across the arena side to side. In
about 35 seconds this mode will wear off so before it does activate blaze mode
and you now can run until blaze mode wears off which is also roughly 35
seconds. Its not easy keeping track of how many seconds you've ran for so I
wouldn't bother, just make some good judgment of how much time you've spent and
then end the match and check to see if you got the milestone. I would say do 5
blazes, which is 70 seconds of unlimited stamina and id guess about 50 of those
seconds are where you are actually running.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
8. - Toughness
You can get 2 milestones from learning the wrestling fighting style and 1
milestone from learning the streetfighting fighting style. The toughness
requirements are a bit of a mystery and kind of screwy. It was initially
thought that the requirements were 25 big comeback bonuses and 10 last man
standing bonuses but we now know that's not the case. But wait there's more. If
you get 1 of these milestones you cannot get the other. So toughness cannot be
100%.
8a. - 1 Big Comeback Bonus
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To get this bonus you must regain 40% or more of your health after your health
was in the red zone. So basically have the other character beat you up until
your health is in the red then take your character and beat him to death for
hurting you. You most likely will have all your health regained by the time you
defeat the other character but if not then just wait till it regains. After the
match it will show the screen where it has all your bonuses and how much money
you got for the match. In those bonuses there should be a big comeback bonus.
That's all there is to it. This is a lot easier then the 25 some people thought
they had to do, including me.
8b. - 4 Close One Bonuses (?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now this bonus is still mostly a mystery. Since you can only get one of these 2
bonuses I would suggest you get the big comeback, since it only takes 1 match.
But if you would like to do this one then go ahead, but I'm still not
completely sure if this is even the right condition because I did get the
milestone for this but other people have taken 5 close one bonuses to get the
milestone so I'm pretty sure its not the close one bonus at all, but when you
go for the bonus your milestone will show up. If anyone has any info on this
please contact me. Anyways, here's how to do it. A close one bonus is awarded
for defeating your opponent when you are in the red zone. So basically what you
have to do is get your character so beat up that he can't regain any health and
he is in permanent red zone because if he can still regain health he will do it
fast and most likely get out of the red zone before you defeat your opponent.
The bonus will show up after the match the same way the big comeback bonus did.
Do this 4 or 5 times and check if you got a milestone for it. If you let your
health recharge too much then you will get a big comeback bonus and then you
will be unable to get the milestone for this. And don't bother getting 3 close
ones and then on your fourth match getting a big comeback and a close one
bonus, it still doesn't let you have both.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
9. - Health
You can get 2 milestones from learning the submissions fighting style and 1
milestone from learning the martial arts fighting style.
9a. - 5 Perfect Match Bonuses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This bonus might already be complete if you did 5 matches without getting hurt.
If you did this guide in order you probably already have this. If not then just
win 5 matches without taking any damage by just beating up on your second
unmanned controller. The bonuses show up after you have won the match on the
screen where it shows how much money you gain from the match.
9b. - 500 Blocks + 100 Counters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is sort of a 2 part milestone. The whole thing is easier if you have
another person able to pick up the second controller and help you do these. If
not then have 1 hand on your characters controller holding the block button so
you're constantly blocking. You can take the button down if you'd like. Then
just get the other controller to keep attacking you. Its only 500 attacks so it
won't take too long, maybe 10 minutes, but I didn't count. The countering takes
a little more effort. To counter an attack you must have your character press
the direction you are facing then quickly press block slightly after you press
the direction. This is almost the same as pressing it at the same time but you
must press the stick first or else the counter won't happen. It just takes some
practice. If done correctly your character will do a counter animation. You can
try this out without having your opponent near you. You must counter a punch or
kick from your opponent 100 times. This is all about timing. If you don't have
another person to man the second controller here's what you do (note I am using
the ps2 controller, so the Xbox controller will be a different method): take
controller 1 (your character) in your dominant hand and place your thumb on the
left thumb stick, then take your index finger (the one right beside the thumb)
and place it on r1 which is the block button. Wrap the rest of your hand around
the right grip of the controller. So this should enable you to press the thumb
stick right and r1 easily. With your other hand have the second controller on
the floor in front of you and you can now tap the attack button easily. Now
position your character so that he is facing right just because it's easier to
press right on the thumb stick than any other direction. Press the attack
button on the second controller and as soon as you do that, try to counter it
with your character. It takes some practice to get the timing right but at
least its only 100 counters. This is much easier with another person helping
you out. If you successfully counter an attack your character will do a move on
the other one and may knock him down. Position yourself so you are facing right
again and pick him up and do it again.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
10. - Charisma
Charisma is a hidden stat so you can't actually check if you achieved the
milestones or not. The only way I know of checking your charisma is by going
into battle mode and looking at your characters stats. Charisma is not only
affected by milestones though, so don't use this bar to judge how many
milestones you have gotten. Just make a guess as to how many you completed.
10a. - 25 Crowd Double-Team Moves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is pretty easy. Just grapple your opponent and throw him into the crowd
and he will bounce back and you will do a move on him. 25 of these and you're
done.
10b. - 250 Environmental Attacks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Environmental attacks are when you throw your opponent into an object in the
environment and proceed to smash his face into it by doing another grapple when
he is against the object. 250 seems kind of steep mainly because you can easily
k.o. your opponent with these. So if you really want to do this I would suggest
picking a character with high toughness and health just so you can do more of
these in a match. Once your opponent is in the red, let his health regenerate
or else 1 more environmental attack will finish him.
10c. - 5 Crowd Favorite Bonuses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This bonus can be won by having the crowd on your side by the end of the match.
Basically an easy way of doing this is by beating up your opponent pretty
quickly and you must use at least 1 weapon attack during the match. A good
arena to do this is the foundation because they have bottles on the speakers so
that's a quick weapon. The bonus shows up after the match where it shows how
much money you gained from the match.
10d. - 5 Blazin' Moves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do 5 blazin' moves. This might take 2 or 3 matches. If you don't know how to do
these then I'm amazed because if you're doing these milestones and you have a
custom character, so that means you did the weak little tutorial they gave you
where it tells you how to do a blazin' move.
10e. - Finish Story Mode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beat story mode with your custom character. Pretty much self explanatory.
