For those who want to use a glitch for this, the dashboard glitch has been patched.

HOWEVER there is a new glitch that will make things alot easier, and is similar to the glitch.

EDIT: This glitch still works as of April. 24th, 2012. Thanks Diamond Thing for telling me about that.

I would suggest at least trying this legit, although you should plan at least 3 hours+ for each mission to do it legit. My average time for doing it legit was 2-4 hours with my record times still being 1-3 hours so it will take some time, but it is rewarding to know you got one of the most difficult achievements legit. I would post my tips and a guide for doing it legit, but there are already several guides for that.

To do the glitch you must:

1) Start whichever level you need for the achievement at the start on EASY.
EDIT: You MUST be in the game lobby for this to work. I had someone join during the second chapter of No Mercy, and he did not get the achievements.

2) Rush as fast as you can until you get to the final saferoom (the start of the finale). Do NOT take the bar off the saferoom, or even open the door.
EDIT: Some people have told me that opening the saferoom door does not effect the glitch, but every time I have used it I have left the bar on the door.

3) Vote to Return to Lobby

4) Start the FINALE of the same level you ran through on EXPERT.

5) Beat the Finale, get on the rescue vehicle.
EDIT: In order to get the achievement you MUST make it onto the rescue vehicle, if someone gets in and you miss it you will have to start the entire process over again, meaning you cannot simply reselect the finale, you will have to run through the whole time.

Achievement won.

This glitch works for anything that the dashboard glitch worked on, and any achievement that requires you to play the entire campaign.

Achievements that you can win using this glitch (but you do need to go through the finale and earn these):

Do not Disturb
Stomach Upset
Akimbo Assassin
Stand Tall
Unbreakable
Safety First
Nothing Special
Zombicidal Maniac
What are You Trying to Prove

EDIT: Sorry for those who would like help from me but I can't run through these achievements anymore. But if you need any further explanation send me a message.

*Still works on 01/20/2013, on all stages!

My solution is inspired by two gamers who have a cheat for achievement " Untouchables ". It's very easy !

Works with the latest game update !

- To begin, start the campaign from chapter 1 on easy mode, and go to the last safe room.
- When the last chapter is loaded, the gamer who want the achievement must return to the main menu. More than one player can get it at the same time, as long as the host stays in the game.
- The host must call the emergency vehicle for the first time, the other players must then quickly join the game and as soon as their gamertag appears on screen, the host must call the emergency vehicle again. This step has to be done as fast as possible for it to count !
- ALL PLAYERS MUST STAY AS SPECTATORS FOR NOW.
- The host play the finale alone with AI bots, and when the second Tank is killed, the host must change the difficulty to expert.
- As soon as the vote is passed, all players must push RT to appear, go to the vehicle and Oubaaah! Achievement unlocked !!!


Excuse me for my language, i'm french, and i bet that if we get the achievement to unlock that way, i write on TA ^_^ special thanx for my friends Wicelow!

Since the finales are the hardest I will cover those. But first some basic tips for expert:

a.) Watch Your Fire, Francis!: If you find yourself friendly firing constantly or even on occasin, simply take a deep breath and take your finger off of the trigger. Find other ways to dispatch zombies when your friends are in your field of view. Meleeing when a zombie is close to some one is always advantageous to shooting.

b.) Peelz! Always stock up on any health that you can find. A good strategy at the end of any level is to kill anyone still standing that has below fifty percent health, as they will come back with fifty. If you kill them in the safe room you will be able to keep molotovs/pipebombs, etc.

c.) I hear a hunter!: Keep full captions on, they alert you to any incoming special infected as well as incoming hoards.

Now onto those finales:

1. No Mercy: Using the "Jesus Room" is your best bet, from here (once the last tank dies) rush to the helicopter pad and shoot anything that moves until you can board.

2. Death Toll: Using the "Jesus Rock" is another (almost) guaranteed bet. You will have to get lucky with the tanks, or you can pump them full of lead and hope for the best. One thing about this strategy is to conserve ammo since the next nearest stash will pretty much always get you killed. Have one person watch from the rock into the water, which is where most smokers come from. When the boat arrives, hightail it to the dock and wait for the boat to fully pull into harbor.

3. Dead Air: By far the hardest finale (but I did it with 2 bots and an unknown). Holding out by the closet is a good strategy, as it offers great lines of sight and good room for kiting the tank when he comes. A good place to kite the tank is on the crashed airplane infront of you. Have one or a couple of people have the tank chase them as the others shoot. One downside to this place is the trek back to the airplane after the last tank, but if you run as soon as the tank dies and everyone is in decent condition you'll make it no problem.

4. Blood Harvest: A great camp spot is in the barn. It has ammo and sometimes other goodies. But before the group heads over make sure to scavange the house for anything(normally there isn't anything). Once in the barn go to the second story and go in the back right corner as you get off the ladder. By having two people cover the whole in the wall and the other two covering the rafters and the ladder you will cut through anything that comes at you. Just call out and get ammo whenever you run low. For tanks have your crew hang tight and have ONE person run onto the left rafter. This person needs to kill any remaining special infected and can be equipped with any weapon type. By having one person do this it glitches the tank and he will run in tiny circles on the first floor. The person on the rafter can unload and kill both tanks with ease. When the vehicle comes just jump through the whole to your right and walk right up the ramp.

Hope this helps anyone.

As i'm sure we all know this is not an easy achievement to gain. I got the 54,595 achievement well before this so you can see just how many tries it took.

This solution refers to single player:

*The AI players, although not willing to follow you at times or even refusing to pick up first-aid kits have an suprisingly accurate ability to pick off special infected.*

*On single player, you have the benefit of spam melee. If you are overwhelmed by the infected's sheer numbers back into a corner and melee. Also, should one of your team-mates get vomited on duck next to them and melee. If your team-mates go down, then so will you.*

*Turn full captions on, the number of times it comes up with 'tank growls' when I haven't noticed are countless.*

No Mercy Finale:
One of the best tactics is to stand in the doorway of the closet, you can see out the front windows and can easily melee away infected from your team-mates. The hard part is when the Tank comes, be extra aware of the Boomer just before the tank. If he vomits on you as the Tank is approaching, you're as good as dead on expert. You can try to stand near the windows to lure the tank in, occasionally he will get stuck giving you time to use a shotgun at close range. When the helicopter comes make sure that you have a pipebomb (keep one throughout the finale), there's nothing worse than being incapped just as your boarding the helicopter.

Death Toll Finale:
The 'Jesus Rock' still works from what I hear, just watch out for smokers in the water. However, if you dont use the 'Jesus Rock' then I recommend either the stairs or the ground floor. If you use the stairs then constantly move between the top and bottom as the Infected will swarm all over you. Watch the bottom left window in particular, a Boomer creeping through decimate your chances. If you use the ground floor then keep alternating your view between the front and back doors, helping where necessary. One thing I noticed in the Death Toll Finale is the great abundance of molotovs and pipebombs, use them! As you see the horde coming chuck a pibebomb then grab another, sometimes its easy to forget about the explosives in the heat of battle. As for the tank, same as No Mercy if. If your luck he will get stuck in the window, if not then its a run and shoot job. As soon as the second tanks dead get to the pier, throw a molotov at the pier's entrance or a pipebomb but make sure you dont throw either until you see the horde.

Dead Air Finale:
I completed this by standing in front of the yellow tape behind the plane, its a wide open area so the horde will tend to run at you in straight lines making life a lot easier. You can easily spot the boomer, you'll also see the hunter coming a mile off but watch out for the smoker. Especially from the area behind the plane you board. As for the tank, its such a wide area you can just run and shoot but watch out for the luggage carriers. Remember, just like a car these are an instant incap if they hit you. If your lucky, sometimes you can run up to the plane and the tank will try to go under it, allowing you to blast away from underneath. Once the second tank dies, wait till you see the horde then chuck a pipebomb and thats Dead Air done.

Blood Harvest Finale:
In the FarmHouse the stairs are a good bet, once again watch one direction and hope the AI cover your back. Remember, to alternate though especially if one side is becoming overwhelmed and keep using pipebombs/molotovs to your advantage as its easy to forget. When the tank comes it is ESSENTIAL you get out of the house ASAP, countless times on both offline and online I have seen people stay in the house and get completely slaughtered. A wide open area will give you space to outrun the tank and do some serious damage. After the second tank dies, run out towards the barn as this is where the ACP arrives and chuck a pipebomb but watch out for special infected. One time I had a tank throw a rock at me on the ramp of the ACP, I was not happy. ¬_¬

Hope this helps and best of luck!

I agree with 3 of the 4 places mentioned by doctor, but dead air is VERY easy with the right spot. if you pick up and throw a propane tank into the baggage cart as you're running into it, you can move it to either the nose of the plane or up the hill to the right wing of the plane. then, just stay in the center of the plane and melee each other to avoid being caught by a smoker. all the guys go away eventually. then, toss the pipe bomb, drop off the back of the plane and hop in.

update - there are some other ways to on top too. this video shows 3 ways

I did this with two other people using the glitch where you start on easy and only play finale on expert. Note:This method needs to be done with more than one person

2:41 into the video(thanks to GamertagTOWELLIE for video) the camera is facing the the bails of hay.

This method needs to be done with more than one person. If u look there is a rod that runs above the hay bails. Use the bails to jump up onto the rod (may require crouch jump). Once on the rod move along to the right so that there isn't anything the tank can stand on to hit you.One person needs to start up and quickly get on the rod.

Have one person with shotgun for tanks and other with assault rifle or sniper. The person with the shotgun needs to use their pistols to kill common infected and other to watch for smoker (when we did smoker didn't spawn, not sure if always happens).

When the tank comes make sure you aren't standing to close to each other as on rare occasions the tank can get you(this is why you need others). If he does the other person needs to come over and heal you. Note: don't use med kit until on black and white screen or have been down twice already. Continue to unload into the tank until he dies.

Continue with same method as before for next wave of common infected and tank. After the second tank dies jump down in the direction of the escape truck and run to it while watching out for special infected.

We found this the easiest way getting it first go after failing with all other spots.

Expert is very easy if you can simply change the way you play. You cannot possibly enter an Expert game with the mentality of another difficulty.

Friendly fire - Don't even bother shooting if there's more than a 50% chance of hurting a fellow survivor in the process. It causes major annoying damage and can really hurt.

Zombies - The Common Infected do 20 damage on a front hit and 10 damage for a back hit. The best thing? They have to actually come right up to you to do said damage. Try headshotting with the shotgun, or using one of the rifles but always aim for the heads.

Play with full captions on. You will get many notifications as to incoming attacks and Special Infected spawns, but do note that you should listen for the music cues anyway. If you like to play with music off, at least turn it on a little bit. It really does help.

On Campaign mode, you can actually hear tanks BEFORE you trigger them. On Versus, they just spawn and boom, but no: on Campaign mode, you can hear a tank and it's only after walking past a door or something they are activated. This gives you time to prepare, and it's even possible to see part of a tank before it gets activated.

MOST IMPORTANT TANK RULE:
Setting a Tank on fire makes it FASTER on Campaign and activates a Fire Timer (something like 40 seconds on Expert mode?) before it dies. Any shooting you do when it's on fire is actually a waste of ammo (although sometimes, especially with a rifle or mounted gun, it slows it down a bit). Just try running to the saferoom if you've used your molotov or gas can. There's no need to shoot.

I believe this is the same for Witches, so do not bother shooting witches on fire either unless you like wasting ammo. I doubt it slows her down.

And Tanks and Witches can both enter the beginning saferoom, Tanks sometimes struggle and certain positions help prevent it but it is sometimes possible for both to enter (with a Tank, however, it's slightly more unlikely).

My final tip is to play with the controller sensitivity all the way up, both vertically and horizontally, in the pause or main menu. Takes a long long time to get used to, but you will find you can aim much faster and you have freedom of movement. And be aware! Always look behind you and in front of you - you almost need eyes in both directions at once.

If you're only aiming for this one, do a campaign you know the most thoroughly. Their difficulty is about the same.

There is actually a glitch to beat every finale without so much as killing a single Infected. On No Mercy you can let zombies break down a door and then go into a room where the AI can't see you, on Dead Air you can jump on top of the plane by moving one or two carts with propane tanks, on Blood Harvest you can actually just stand and melee a tree and everything will immediately die before it reaches you (!) and on Death Toll there's a rock you can sit on. Crash Course, as far as I know, has no finale glitches, however Crash Course on Expert doesn't count towards it anyway. But I'm not going into how they work and not saying you have to use them. It has little relevance, just find them out through Google or YouTube.

Don't forget you MUST SURVIVE the finale and ENTER THE RESCUE VEHICLES! It's for surviving four campaigns, not only for completing them.

Hope this helps.

If you want to get this achievement the easy way, there is a campaign glitch. This works for the expert achievements and other ones like "Stomach Upset". I want to also add that you play with a full lobby of players that are good and cooperative. I also recommend you turn FULL CAPTION on. Follow these steps to do the glitch:

*Play through any campaign from first chapter-finale chapter.

*When the finale chapter starts and NO-ONE has left the saferoom or opened it, call a vote to return to lobby.

*When back to lobby, have the host go to "EDIT SETTINGS" and change the difficulty to expert and the chapter be the finale chapter of that campaign.

*After editing, start the campaign again.

Now just play through the finale chapter carefully and follow these tips for success:

*No Mercy: When at the at the rooftop finale and are at the radio, stock up on ammo, health, PIPE BOMBS, and gasoline/propane tanks. Close to the heli-pad there is a high building that can be jumped on and had a ladder. Also, it gas a satellite on top of it. Have gasoline/propane tanks setup around, and have everyone gather on top of the building. Once ready, have somebody answer the radio twice and get back to the top of the building. Have two players watch the ladder side and two watch the left side of the ladder or building. When zombies come, don't waste too much shots and shoot the gasoline/propane tanks when there is a lot of zombies. Watch out for smokers!!! After two minutes, there should be a door open below the players watching the left side, which has stairs below them. This is the JESUS ROOM. If open, have everyone enter the far-end of the room with lights off. Just wait there without attracting attention. Tanks will spawn, but will die. This will happen twice. Then after long waiting, the helicopter arrives. Have the PIPE BOMBS be ready to throw once leaving the room. Leave the room together and throw the pipe bombs the opposite direction of the pad. Then RUN RUN RUN!!!! Once everyone that is not incapped is in the chopper, the chapter ends!!!

*Death Toll: Once at the boat finale and are at the radio, do the same steps that was mentioned in NO MERCY. I recommend players have a sniper or assault rifle. Once stocked and prepared, there is A JESUS ROCK to the far left side of the house. To find it, just look at the front of the house, go to the far right of the beach shore and there should be a big rock on the side of the map. Might take a while, but have everyone attempt to jump onto the rock until everyone is on it. Then, have one of the players answer the radio for rescue, then have him/her rush back onto the rock. Have one player watch the back of the rock where the dock is, and everyone else watch the front of the rock. Make sure to conserve ammo. Just fend of the zombies until a tank arrives. Have everyone focus on killing the tank and the tank should die easily. Keep on doing this until the boat arrives. Have PIPE BOMBS ready and run off the rock to the boat. Thow the PIPE BOMBS to the woods and RUN RUN RUN!!! Once on the boat the chapter ends!!

*Dead Air: This is probably the toughest campaign. I don't know any glitches on the plane finale. Just stock up and prepare yourselves for the horde. I recommend having everone gather to the far back corner to the back of the pick-up plane. Once ready, have someone answer the radio and fuel up the plane. After that, have him/her rush back. Just have two players watch the right and left sides. Watch out for special infected!! There will be a lot of zombies so I recommend that if you found PIPE BOMBS, throw one far away from yourselves. When the tank comes, gather close but not too close to the right side of the plane. The tank might get stuck on the other side of the plane, being vulnerable to shots below the plane. After that just defend yourselves until the plane opens. Throw a PIPE BOMB to the nose of the plane and have everyone rush into the plane. The chapter ends when everyone is in!!

*Blood Harvest: For the finale, the tough part really is just getting to the barn. Make sure to have everyone stick together and watch each other's backs. Once at the barn and the radio, stock up. Once everyone is ready, have everyone gather to the little woods behind the two big water buildings. Find a white tree that has a space between two big branches located near rocks and is almost lined up between the touching spots of the water buildings. Once located, have everyone jump between the branches and keep on meleeing. Once ready, have a person run back to the house and call for rescue. Then have him/her rush back and get into the tree. This is the JESUS TREE!! Shut off lights, don't attract too much attention, and if necessary shoot zombies that stand around the tree. Sometimes when everyone is meleeing, the game will make players go idle, which you do not want. Make sure everyone is moving the cam side to side and still meleeing. When tank(s) spawns, DO NOT SHOOT OR DO ANYTHING THAT WILL ATTRACT A LOT OF ATTENTION!! The tank(s) will die by itself. Once the rescue vehicle arrives, throw PIPE BOMBS(if found) into the field and run into the vehicle. Kill any zombies in the way and dodge the tank if close by. Once everyone is in the vehicle, the chapter is done!!!

I hope this helps a lot and gets positive votes!!!

Heres a simple way start a campaign on easy run through til the finale while in the safe room players that want the achievement / progression point leave to the main menu. The host must stay in then send invites to everyone to come back and leave the safe room when the players join they will automatically start idle (this will not happen if they are still in the same room) they have to stay idle until the end. When the rescue vehicle arrives switch to expert and have everyone take control of the players. then just run onto the vehicle and everyone who left and came back will get the achievement / progression point simple. If the horde over runs one of you just all die and you will start back in the safe house have everyone leave again switch to easy and invite back. Remember to return the favor for the host. It also pops off a bunch of them if you don't already have them akimbo assassin stand tall nothing special stomach upset there are a few more but i cant remember what they are.
This worked for me yesterday on 19/7/12 happy hunting

I have a solution for blood harvest, although if you're looking for cheats or glitches, you're in the wrong place. I used the dashboard glitch to do this, but I was hosting so I didn't get it. Get to the finale, and try to make it to the barn. As long as one person makes it in, you can revive the others. Once there and having cleared the remaining horde, search the grounds for and possibly useful items, pipe bombs and molotovs are extremely rare but if you do get them make sure you don't waste it. Set traps like propane tanks and gas tanks around the barn to clear most of the first wave. Go up into the barn, and have two people guarding the big hole in the wall, one person with a carbine the other with a shotgun, and have two more guarding the ladder area where boomers and hunters tend to come up. These two should have a carbine and shotgun as well. Fending off the horde using this method is the easy part, but when tanks come it gets a bit tricky. Have all four members walk onto the rafters a little to the right of you, and pump the tank with lead while doing so. He should go down pretty easily because he can't reach you, but he can throw rocks at you and down you in one hit. He should come down pretty fast. Rinse and repeat, using common sense for when to re-load and heal up, as I cannot advise you when seeing as your health levels will vary. Before long, the rescue vehicle will arrive (there is no better sound than hearing it chug along), at this point you should have maybe one team member down, or maybe you did well and had all four, again it varies. All it takes is two people to make it, since one will probably be smokered or pounced on. Bam, blood harvest is done. I know I make it seem easy, but you have to be calm, think clearly and don't panic. Make sure you have three other team-mates, although one AI will work, and is preferred over a teammate lacking skill. Good luck to you!

Using this glitch works good to make easy of the first 4 parts of the level.
Start on easy and play to the end. When in the final safe room call a vote to lobby and then host switchs it to the finale and to expert and it counts the campaign for expert.
This make them all easier. Warning though not sure if this counts for host as when im doing this i already have the achievements legit just sharing this so not sure if it counts for host but you can easily do it twice in the time it would take you to do one campiagn on expert legit.

Ok now for the tips for each finale, these are written and i will not provide videos for these but you should be able to find some on youtube but if you cant find any send me a message on ta or xbox and i will try and explain them better

Just a tip for all of the following solutions whoever leaves the safe haven first will usually be the one who gets attacked by all 3 special infected usually.

New Mercy = to get to the rescue is easy and for the actual surviving it is best to use the jesus room glitch. when you get to the rooftop the room to your right, get on top of the roof and and look over the edge to see a door, and you need a zombie to break the door down, once it has just hide at the back of the room with lights off and then your fine, youll just need to run to the helicopter.

Death Toll - this one is opposite the house where you call for the rescue. its an open building with 4 pic-nic benchs under it. what you need to do is get a gas tank or gasoline tank and walk up to a bench. push the y button to drop it while walking into the bench and you will push the bench. Once you are pushing it you will need to push up the little hill and then towards the house with rescue phone and line up the bench with the edge of the roof of the building. once its aligned run down the edge of the bench and jump onto the roof of the building. then got onto of the chimney, and the only thing you need to watch for is smokers. just watch for whoever drop down first will get smoked/pounced.

Dead Air - this one is hard to explain. ok for this you need to use the same tactic for moving. find a gas tank, now what you need to find the luggage carrier box type thing. and move them to the front of the plane. you need 2 set up between the lorry and the plane. you set up to make a jumping bridge from the truck to the nose of the plane. there is a video on youtube for it but i dont know what to search for. once onto of the plane just stand in the centre of the wings and continuasly mealy(LT) eachother as smokers are a bother. while moving the luggage it is hard but you can do it with teamwork as some of the carts can only be moved form one side originally so you start moving it and a teamate moves it further in the correct direction. i do apologise as this one is hard to explain

Blood Harvest - this is by far the hardest of all. even getting to the rescue point is hard. im not sure if this has a video either and im not sure whats its called either. ok when running across the corn field you will see a red silo, opposite this silo there are 2 trees which are connected but have a gap between them. what you need to do is face towards where you can first see the rescue vehicle and hold LT down and with flashlights off. this will trick the enemys and you should be fine but it does not always work so have patients it is really hard to do this one. once you have survived untill the rescue has arrivied you will need to run to it, this is hard but you did skip the 2 tanks and 2 waves of zombies. the run is hard as hell but molotovs and pipebombs make it a hell of a lot easier, also if there is a boomer someone should delibratly get puked on to attract the horde and make it easier for the rest.

Just remember if you only get the campaign done for one person it is stil a success as you can easily do this glitch 4 times for each person before you get the campiagn done legit.

This isn't how I got this, but while helping my friend I discovered a new way to make this easier. It's also helpful for Stomach Upset, Nothing Special, Akimbo Assassin, Do Not Disturb, Unbreakable, Safety First, and Zombicidal Maniac.
You can play the first 4 chapters on EASY. Then call a vote to return to lobby, and start the campaign on the finale, be sure to change the difficulty to EXPERT.
Now, the finale can still be a challenge in itself, so here are the best places to hold out, and "Jesus areas"
No Mercy- This can be done in the closet next to the weapon rack.
No Mercy Jesus Room-

Death Toll- You can hideout either in the top of the house, jumping out when the tank comes, (MAKE SURE YOU'RE OUT OF THE HOUSE DURING THE TANKS.) Or the dock, if you watch for smokers.
Death Toll Jesus Rock-

Dead Air- From the weapon table, go behind the plane, to the little open area. Have people cover each side, the specials will spawn to the left of the plane, near the weapon table. Kill them before they smoke you/ pounce you. For the tank, stay on the opposite side of the plane as it, it can be glitched to be stuck opposite you.
Dead Air- Out of Map "Jesus"
I could not find a video for this. This is a very unknown glitch, my friend showed me it awhile ago. So, when you drop down from the first ledge, go to the right, to the broken air plane wing. The wing has a VERY SMALL split in it. Make your team go to the gas truck, and you go idle. You will teleport outside of the map. If you don't get it on your first try, just keep moving a little bit near the split, and you'll get it. The downside to this glitch is that it's hard for the person who starts it to get out in time. So have someone who has this already start it, or who ever's the best at the glitch.

Blood Harvest- Upstairs in the big barn is the BEST place here. Inside the house I could never finish, the barn is fairly easy, much easier than in the house. Plus, when the truck arrives you can hop out of the opening and you land next to the truck, watch for smokers though, they like to snag survivors at the very last second.
Blood Harvest Jesus Ledge-
I also couldn't find a video for this one. This one's difficult.
Go to the area where the truck drives off after you complete it, jump on the hay bales and into the tree branch. You will be standing on the branch, but it's very difficult to line up and takes a LOT of practice. After you get there, walk slowly towards the ledge, the cliffside. You need to jump at the LAST second, and you should land on the ledge. Go all the way across until you can't anymore, and crouch there. Don't step forward, or a smoker can, and most likely will pull you down.

Best if done with as many people as possible:

My solution for blood harvest is very similar to xGernade and Doctor but it varies slightly. I also reccomend you do this with at least one other person, and from the percentage of people who still need to get this it won't be too hard to find others willing. When going through the campaign save as many pipe bombs as possible because you really need them the most at the finale. Once you get to the field with the tractor in it you can do one of two things. First, if someone has a pipe bomb they can try throwing it and going as far left in the field as possible when they hear the crows fly away, and run as fast as they can to some sort of shelter. The second way to do this has to be done with at least two people. One person will have to sacrifice themself to save the others from the horde. So decide who will die because the first person to try to run as fast as they can on the left side will be attacked by as many zombies that can fit around that person. The other player(s) should run right by so no zombies, who can't attack the player on the ground, attack you instead. The player on the ground doesn't need to worry about coming back because as soon as the other player(s) get to the house they can let you out of the closet on the first floor, after killing the other zombies. If the surviving player(s) are fast enough they can try to let you out of the closet early in order to help kill the remaining zombies from the field horde. When all the lingering zombies are dead heal up and get anything that you may need later like pipe bombs and pills. Before you call the vehicle and begin the finale shoot out the doors on the second floor and also the windows because your speed getting through those places will be essential later. When you are ready to survive the finale have everyone pile into the closet on the first floor where the player who died in the field should have come back. It is also the small room next to the front door facing the field. Have two people in the back of the closet, one in the corner on the right side when facing the room, and one just in front of the small wall that sticks out, then pile any other survivors in front of them. The survivors in the back shoot and the survivors in the front punch to keep smokers, boomers, hunters and commoned infected off of the shooters. If half of the people are bots you have a smaller chance of surviving. This is best with the max number of players but it isn't essential. Now have one person, perferably one of the crouchers in front, start the finale and run back to position. If the closet door is still, on close it when coming back in and if any bots are left outside of the room it isn't a must to help them back up or even trying to avoid shooting them. If you want them to survive or feel you could use all the people, wait until there is a break in the horde and have a croucher try to help them up if they are close enough. I would suggest not leaving the room though because even with the smallest crack of viewing from outside a smoker can get you and then the others will have to leave their position to get you and put everyone at risk. The only thing you really have to watch out for during this first horde is smokers, friendly fire, and sometimes boomers. When you no longer hear zombies ,run out of the room, but watch out for a possible lingering boomer. When everyone is clear run to the second floor. Go up the stairs and make your way out of any of the windows. Head towards the side with the silo and get as close as possible to the kids room on the roof outside. The kids room is the one with the crib in it, in the middle of the hall way half way between the other rooms. You should see a tiny ledge just under the window. Pile as many people as you can in that spot but make sure you watch out for smokers. Then figure out where the tank is coming from. If he comes from one of the sides of the childerns room everyone should back up away from him just far enough that he can't hit you or throw rocks at you because he can't climb on the ledge. If he comes from the window in the childrens room he will get stuck and unable to move forward, this is when everyone should unload on him. If he is still on the ground floor he will bust down the wall underneath the kids window. What you should do then is get as many as you can over the spot where the wall was broken. If someone gets too far over the pile of sandbags just outside of that room, he will climb it and he will probably kill everyone. The key is to get him stuck in the window or underneath you outside of the childrens room. When he is dead go back to the closet and repeat until the vehicle arrives. If you kill the tank the same way as the first time you should be in a great position to get to the vehicle. When the second tank is dead run to the opposite side of the roof or towards the barn if that is easier. If you have any pipe bombs throw them now as far away as possible but beware for special infected. Also if one or more didn't get the achievement due to death you can replay and, only those who didn't get it the first time, need to make it in the vehicle.

When I got the achievement one of my friends didn't make it to the vehicle and he restarted the campaign after the credits. When he got pretty far in the campaign again my other friend and I joined him and we got him the achievement in one try. It may take a few times to practice and learn the best way ti execute it but once you get it the first time it is just repetition.
