Make sure to complete the bonus condition when fulfilling a hit contract - you will earn many times more respect. Also, killing mobsters with your bare hands earns you more respect than killing them with a weapon.

• Smuggler: Racket trucks are the large cargo trucks driving around the city. The color of the truck corresponds to the family the truck belongs to (Green - Barzini, Red - Cuneo, Blue - Stracci, Brown - Tattaglia). Barzini trucks are worth the most, while Tattaglia trucks are worth the least. To hijack a racket truck, keep slamming into it with a vehicle or shoot it up with a firearm. When you do enough damage to it, it will stop. But watch out - at this point rival gangsters protecting the goods will jump out of the back and start attacking you. You must kill them and then pressure the driver of the truck to give you his keys. Once he does, hop in the truck and deliver it to a truck drop-off spot before the family you stole it from blows you up.

• No More Narcotics: For help in bombing the drug rackets, see Drug Fronts.
• Warehouse Wrecker: Buy out the racket boss of every warehouse in the city.
• Transport Takedown: Buy out the racket boss of every hub in the city.
• Debt Collector: See Film Reels for maps of the hidden film reels.

• Don of NYC: To reach the Don of NYC rank, you must complete all missions and take over all businesses, rackets, warehouses, hubs, and compounds.
• Public Enemy Number One: This is easily the most difficult and also longest achievement of the game. In order to reach respect level 50 you need to complete all missions, hit contracts, and favors. You need to have fulfilled the bonus condition in each hit contract. You need to have taken over all businesses, rackets, warehouses, hubs, drug fronts, and compounds. You need to have collected every film reel and cracked every safe. You need to heist all banks and win all prize fights. You need to perform every execution style. You also should purchase every piece of clothing as you get a respect bonus, you can wear whatever you want but this will help. However, even this may still not be enough. If you're still short, keep killing mobsters until you get there. You can bribe police officers on the streets. If you can't find any mobsters because you've wiped them out, hijack racket trucks and a couple will jump out from them. Heisting banks gets you 8,000 respect per bank. If you have a lot of money you can continue to hire and then dismiss the assassin crew members ($10,000 to hire), this gets you respect each time you hire them, this can be done fairly quickly. Other ways include bribing police officers when there are a lot by you. Generally by a bank a lot of officers will spawn. Once 10 are there, you can keep bribing them in order from 1 to 10. If you are struggling to make the mark, complete all the missions and contracts before you do much else in the game. Each time your rank increases, the multiplier to the respect you gain does also. So when you come round to take over all the businesses you will get a lot more respect than you would taking over the businesses first then doing the missions. The amount of respect for respect 50 is enormous though, and no matter what you do, even if you complete everything mission-wise, take over everything and collect everything, there's a good chance you can end up short by a level or two, leaving quite a few hundred thousand respect under.

Title update DLC

• CC Hijack: From the start up menu where you enter the game select Corleone Challenges, then go to Takeovers-Warehouses-Hijack, this will start the challenge. This must be completed in 20 minutes and is fairly easy to do so. Simply run around and look for trucks, once you spot one free aim pressing and fire until it stops. Extort the driver and then deliver the truck to a safe spot, ditch the truck and repeat five times for the achievement.
• CC Road Rage: From the start up menu where you enter the game select Corleone Challenges, then go to Professional-Weapons-Road Rage, this will start the challenge. This must be completed in 20 minutes but you'll most likely finish before then. Get into any car, preferably a fast one, and drive to the nearest enemy controlled business. Run over any mobsters standing outside the building then move along to the next. No tactics needed here, just kill some mobsters with your car.
• CC Executions: From the start up menu where you enter the game select Corleone Challenges, then go to Professional-Methods-Execution Styles, this will start the challenge. This must be completed in 10 minutes but you'll most likely finish before then. Simply find mobsters and execute them using the button anyway you can think of. Use melee weapons, fists, guns, explosives, slams, anything that mixes it up this will come with no problem. If you forget which ones you have done just re-inact them and if the execution doesn't come up its already been done.
• CC Collecting Dues: From the start up menu where you enter the game select Corleone Challenges, then go to Takeovers-Businesses-Collecting Dues, this will start the challenge. This must be completed in 20 minutes. Run into any businesses not already in control of the Corleones and take it over. This is very easy and you'll already have a good knowledge of how to do this while playing the game. It doesn't matter about max bonus or weak spot so just whack the place up to get the extort quickly. Move onto the racket once you have extorted the front. If you're getting stuck on a business because of the mobsters, move onto an easier business. Making sure the business has a racket is a good idea so you don't have to go to twice the amount of businesses.
• CC Safe Cracker: From the start up menu where you enter the game select Corleone Challenges, then go to Freelance-Bombing-Safe Cracker, this will start the challenge. This must be completed in 20 minutes. Grab some Dynamite then go into 10 businesses and crack their safes. If you're struggling to get into a place just move on to another business. Little Italy will have enough businesses for this, so you don't have to go far.
