For anyone who is struggling to get the 80% nail accuracy. Tap X the second job hits the nail. I thought if I kept the rhythm of the song and just pressed “x” when the symbol was pulsing, I’d be fine. After 3 failed attempts, I just muted the music and watched john hit the nail and ignored the “x” symbol pulsing and I was fine.
Amber says
If you’re having a hard time getting the 80% accuracy, just vigorously smash the X button through the entire mission. Don’t worry about following a rhythm. Just quickly tap X the whole time.
Ed says
This worked, thank you.
