    ** SPOILERS** Just to add on to the above solution... This is after the 1st save point where you see your team member on 1 of the platforms above. You have to stay on the platform where he changes into a necromorph (and where you press the door override screen) for the entire duration otherwise you wont get the achievement.

    buttoonyou can kill him as he runs off, you just have to stay on the platform that you override the door controls on...

    Ninja ScrollThat's because this great site is also filled w/ a bunch of no life douche bags who get satisfaction out of giving a good solution a thumbs down. It has to be a pretty crappy incorrect solution to get a thumbs down from me. This however is a decent solution. It helped that Sideburns522 asked that additional question because I was slightly confused myself. Thanks.

    There will be announcements throughout this sequence that will let you know how much time you have remaining and will countdown from 10 eventually. I received the achievement when the countdown reached 2 but just to careful I advise remaining on the platform till it dings.

    This occurs shortly after the grinder room. You must stay on the platform to earn this achievement: running to a corner of the room for strategic positioning won't work. I recommend getting the Detonator and setting up mines before you hit the door override switch and replacing them as they blow.
