    So, last night i just get my unstoppable achivement, i have some tips to help you guys getting through all of the 14 waves you need to (you just need to reach wave 15, not to complete it, don't misunderstand the achievement description) they're all possible alone, but i still recommand you to get a partner to do those.

    You will start with a pistol (it will change depending on wich survival tier you are, but in the last tier you will start with a m16 red dot and a five seven), for the 5 first wave, use your knife to kill the enemies, 1 stab to kill, at your kill, be sure to take the mp5 on the ground, you'll need it later, use your pistol only if your going to die! don't waste your ammo without a good reason. at the wave 6 you'll have to kill 2 chopper.Take a predator missile and just kill those, if you are on a map that havea roof on the air support armory stay there and you'll get the achievement to destroy 2 chopper without getting hit, after wave 6 start using your mp5, and swap your pistol for an ak-47, your pistol should be empty. Most your going through wave, the enemies will give you more money but they're more hard to kill. Continue on your way to wave 15, at the wave 11 you'll have to kill a juggernaut, use 5 C4 to kill him, one at the time, wait for him to get back on his feet before throwing an other one. if you have extra money don't be afraid to purhase a self revive, those are very useful when you'll get downed and your teamate is in big trouble. NOTE: it take about 15-20 minutes to reach wave 15. Later on wave 11, you will have to kill 2 juggernaut, and you will have to kill infantries too, so use a lot of predator missile to kill the juggernaut when they're dropping of the chopper. NOTE: the chopper that is dropping the juggernaut can't be destroy, don't waste a predator on it. Wait after the choper that firing at you will come

    camping spot:
    not needed until wave 6, but look for it across your wave. Find a place with a roof, near of the air support armory, with 2 door or 2 way to come in, so each player can watch his side to avoid getting kill by behind.

    Swap weapon:
    easy: take mp5, pistol > ak-47
    regular: take mp5, pistol > ak-47
    hard: take mp5, pistol > ak-47, mp5 > acr 6.8
    insane: pistol > mp5, m16 > ak-47, mp5 > acr 6.8, ak-47 > Fad
    NOTE:fill up your ammo(750$) between wave, if you're low.

    starting equipment:
    easy: frag grenade, flashbang, self revive, 250 armor
    regular: flashbang, self revive, 250 armor
    hard: self revive, 250 armor
    insane: 250 armor
    NOTE: not sure i'll edit it on tuesday

    AND BIG NOTE: don't quit after reach wave 15, the game won't save your progress, let the enemies kill you or just throw c4 and down yourself, then just hit B to quit to the menu.
    Good luck

    For those daring enough to attempt surviving 15 rounds on all maps by yourself, I have a pretty solid strategy that I'm using.

    First, the only weapon you should have to buy is an LMG of your liking and maybe a Scope you like ( red dot for me so I have the most visibility possible ). The LMGs will help you tear through Heli's and Juggers in area's that don't provide much cover, if there is cover and no ground troops (only the first 4 maps) then just use the weapons you picked up and save the LMG for OH CRAP situations. The rest of your weapons should consist of only what the enemy drops. When the weapons they use increase in power, their numbers in that wave are low so your weapon at the time will take them out just fine. So once that round is over pick up their stuff and walk on corpses to refill ammo. I do recommend however, not to be scared to just hit the refill ammo on the Weapons Cache. Also, a nice note about the Refill Ammo function on the cache is if you have say 1 bullet left in a clip and hit refill it will also be reloaded, which is extremely helpful for the slow loading LMG's. Weapons dropped have gone in this order: Lever Action Shotgun, MP5, AK-47, ACR 6.8 - anything past that and your well past round 15. You CAN'T pick up Juggernaut weapons. Also try to keep a stock of grenades for Juggernaut levels and anything past wave 10. Flashbang's are more important then Frags.

    Second, find a nice hold down area and put a sentry on opposing sides of it to cover your flanks and the other sentry. Sentries are great for keeping the enemies back from you, just remember they will shoot at you from afar as well. Each Sentry can be easily destroyed by the enemy however so treat them like a teammate. If the game says your turret is under fire immediately assist it, this usually happens when they periodically overheat. Depending on the altitude of heli's, they will fire at rotor wings as well.

    Third, air support options. They may be fun but most are unreliable in a pinch; bad starting point on a predator missle, air strike hits the building in front of the smoke instead of the smoke, and Delta Squad isn't the brightest on watching their backs. Thats why the only air support I get is Riot Shield Squad, they are much tougher then Delta Squad though they are still dumb about being flanked. I highly recommend having them active by round 10 and up. They are immense help on the double Jugger and ground troop waves. Juggers love wasting their time on their shields, often giving you the perfect oppurtunity to unload a 100 round clip of LMG into his back and bam he's dead. They also assist in killing Heli's. But the best benifit of the Delta Squad and Riot Squads are you don't have to give directions at all, so your no exposed and stationary like when trying to aim a predator missle.

    Finally, don't forget to check what streaks each round is asking for. Headshots, Rampages, Killstreaks all help you gather cash quick for those uh-oh situations ( like being downed in round 4 for getting cocky ). But don't obsess over them past round 5. MAKE SURE you have quick revive. If you are downed get it back ASAP. Take out dogs ASAP; sure they can be easy enough to knife but if your in a pinch and they get on you and you don't hit B at just the right moment your dead, no quick revive. Something to note about dogs, if they do get the drop on you and hit you (not downed) and your aim goes all over. As your aim is correcting itself hit melee and 9 times out of 10 you'll knife the dog for the kill.

    NOTE: Make sure you die as stated above, once clearing round 15. Quiting the game will not save it. I plan on testing this theory on my last map by quiting it instead of dying to see if it only pertains to leaderboards or achievements as well.
