This solution comes courtesy of the good folks on xbox360achievents.org and in particular TrinixDMorrison.
I completed the campaign and all coop achievements with only 20 minutes as i found the RB/RT combination awkward so chose not to use it often.
For those of you who still need the achievement after doing the entire campaign and other achievement- getting the last few minutes is easy.
There's a *glitch* whereby when you get an animated kill (headshot, vital shot etc) and where the camera follows the bullet- if you pause the game at the time the bullet hits the enemy- the time for holding your breath will keep counting even though the game is paused.
As I say, hold LT to target, then UP on the D-Pad to scope in again, hold RB to empty lungs then RT to shoot. Make sure the target is at a sufficient distance to trigger an 'animated kill'. As soon as the bullet hits the enemy, hit the START button and do something else for as long as you need the extra time.
Can be done on any mission at any time but I did it immediately at the start off Kopenick Launch Site just after using my grenades for the Potato Masher achievement. There will be three enemies directly ahead of you, one walking, one lying on the ground and one over the wall past them.
Look past the two directly in front of you and snipe the guy standing still over the wall. Pause the game and then come back to your achievement :-) |

For this achievement you must 'Hold your breath for a cumulative time of half an hour'.
When using your sniper, you can go into a more focused mode which makes killing enemies easier. To activate, assuming you have a heart rate under 80bpm, hold the right bumper down - you will now notice the image on the screen slowing down for you to get a better shot.
Everytime you do this, it will count towards the 30 minutes you're aiming for. The best way to do this is take your time with the levels and make the most of every opportunity you have with the sniper rifle. A tip would be to try and remin out of sight - the more you get shot at and hit with bullets the more your heart rate will increase over 80bpm.
One final tip is to not run from place to place. By crouching, you can significantly reduce your heart rate while moving, therefore once an enemy is in sight you can fire whilst holding your breath rather than waiting or just shooting randomly.
This achievement will not take too long providing you take your time through the game. I got it just before halfway through the game as I took my time with missions and also played with friends on game modes such as Bombing Run and Overwatch, in which the achievement is counted towards in these game modes.
Happy Achievement Hunting! |

A simple way to boost this achievement is get to a checkpoint on any mission with 60 bpm, (the lowest it can go), then hold your breath till its out, then restart checkpoint. That way you don't have to wait for the meter to fill, rather, just restart the checkpoint for full bpm. (repeat till achievement pops)
Hope this helped. |
