Patch Blocker XP Glitch Guide

[scruffy8642]

EDIT: i have updated the link that was broken with one that i have heard works just so you know so this should still work.
EDIT 2: There is now a video guide for the glitch so it should help many of you out and make this easier. Credit to NateDogg2487 for creating it!

Hello, Ive done this glitch myself and thought I would put all of the information you need into one thread instead of everyone having to look through multiple pages in the boosting thread.
Credit goes to Beatpeitsi for telling us about this glitch and the basics of how to do it.
Credit also goes to Johnmc for telling me what to do for step 6.
You will be going for these:

Welcome to the Party

Real Nasty Habit


If you get confused with the steps below this is a video that shows what to do after you load up AVP. Just note to ignore the Resistance Fall Of Man part. I would only use this video to find out exactly where you have to kill yourself.

You will need:
A Computer
Internet Connection
A Playstation 3
Aliens vs Predator Game
20-40 Minutes

Step 1:
On your Computer
Download the Elite Mossy Patch Blocker for PS3

Step 2:
Open the patch blocker and look at the larger code. It will be something like this: 192.168.0.114

Step 3:
On your Playstation go to -> Network Settings -> Internet Connection Settings.
Choose custom and go through your usual internet connection settings.

Step 4:
When you reach Proxy Server, press use and copy down both of the codes into the correct positions. The larger code should go into the top box. Continue through your settings and after you have saved them press exit. DO NOT TEST CONNECTION

Step 5:
Delete your AVP game data from the game data utility folder.

Step 6:
You might be able to skip this step but some people are having problems so ill include it. Run AVP and download and install the first patch. after it has downloaded CANCEL THE PROCESS. Quit the game.

Step 7:
On the patch blocker press "Start Blocking" and open up the game. If your are signed into PSN which you shouldnt be sign out.

Step 8:
Now when the game has loaded sign in to PSN. Go to -> Multiplayer -> Ranked Match -> Search Deathmatch with the amount of player to Any.

Step 9:
When the game says "1 Player in game, Waiting for _ more" Quit to the main menu. It doesnt matter if your signed into the PSN anymore but you shouldn't be signed out

Step 10:
Go to Singleplayer and load up the Colony mission on normal difficulty. NOTE: if the game freezes after the cut scene refer to step 6.

Step 11:
Play through the level until you get to the C Block area trying to collect as many grenades as possible, the max is 4 but you only need 1. There should be a lot of debris and one of your teammates should be trying to fit through a gap but gets taken by a Xeno. The turret should stop working and there should be a lot of Xenomorphs. Kill as many as you can and run to the elevator. Make sure that you are on 2 bars of health when you enter the elevator as it should make things a lot easier.

Step 12:
Exit the elevator and you should be in this brownish coloured room that is fairly open spaced. Point at the ground and fire your grenades and you should die. Rinse and repeat for about 5-10 minutes and you should get "Welcome to the Party" If you keep playing for about 25-30 minutes you should get "Real Nasty Habit"

Step 13:
Quit the game and go into network settings. You can close the patch blocker now. Go into custom and choose all the settings you had before but DO NOT USE THE PROXY SERVER. This will allow you to log back into the network as normal.

There is no way to tell whether the glitch is working until one of the trophies pops, but if you follow my guide it should work. I would also like to say that you can do this with a wired connection or wireless connection.

NOTE: If for some reason you cannot finish both of the trophies in one sitting you CAN come back into the game later through the patch blocker and repeat steps 1-9. When you get to choosing the SP level, if you were half way through killing yourself before you can continue the game through the Continue option. Your XP count will be reset but you wont have to waste 15-20 minutes replaying the whole level again. I did this and can confirm that it works.

Apart from that I believe that this guide is finished. If you have any questions or believe that I missed something out tell me and I will try and check back on this thread as frequently as possible. I hope I helped you guys out and some of you can get these annoying trophies with little effort.

Eh.... Damn. I thought and hoped since the Resistance patch only dedicated AvP gamers would be able to platinum.

I really just want to plat this legit and the only trophy remaining for me is Real Nasty Habit, and I have 17,024 XP.

[scruffy8642]

Ah lol. U certainly are dedicated but most of us arent. This games online is absolutely horrible and hardly playable. Youve come so far but if u dont use have a boosting group just use the glitch and get this stupid game out of the way. Still though, u have to be dedicated to get 10 ranked wins nowadays, even if u boost.

[ZOLANTON]

Something that need explanation (lol what a noob I am). I must open the patchblocker in my PC or in the PS3? And is it safe to do so?

[scruffy8642]

You must open on your PC. I should have made it more clear. Also it is safe to open it as ive had it on my pc for 2 weeks trying to figure out how to get this 2 work

[ZOLANTON]

I GOT IT. I DON'T BELIEVE IT AFTER 1 YEAR THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Scrufyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

EDIT: Now that I'm calm I give a better thank you. These bastards of trophies were the only thing keeping me from platinum. Good luck to anyone still trying for the platinum.

[deadface]

Got it too, can't believe it, thank you scruffy, very nice find, I really appreciate it.

[scruffy8642]

No problems guys, I just hope someday i can get it. Winning 10 ranked matches seems almost impossible I havent won one

[Commander Gree]

Hahaha nice job guys. It's too bad that the matchmaking is so messed up people have to resort to patch blockers. It's really too bad because if you had played the 45 or something hours of multiplayer games (excluding wait times) you really come to appreciate the good parts and have some fun times with friends. Hopefully Devs learn from this as it really gives a mediocre name to the AvP Series.

[scruffy8642]

^ Agreed. I absolutely love playing as the predator and the alien. The gameplay done quite well but the marine isnt so good. If the online wasnt so bad this game would actually be quite good. Hopefully Aliens Colonial Marines is good
