You have to be darn quick to do this. I estimate there were about 15-18 enemies who zip-lined in the whole game and if you blick you will miss it. It doesn't seem to work if you die after taking them out and repeat either. Now I've finished the main story there is pretty much no hope of getting this.

Yeah, there are a few enemies here and there once you complete the game but they are scarce, and in most areas disappear completely once you've taken the 2nd wave out on a return visit to an area.

I wonder if this achievements' count carries over to a new game?

As #2 asked, can anyone confirm whether this has to be in one playthough or if it's cumulative to your overall profile?

Has anyone killed 10 in multiplayer? It doesn't say single player after all.

There is a separate achievement for doing this in multiplayer... I fell like I might be only like 1 or 2 off, but I completed the game and I can't find any enemies that use the ziplines after the game is complete.

@#6 So far, I've only seen two enemies use a zip line since I completed the game. Both were in Shanty Town near the gondola. I'm going through each level to collect everything and enemies have been pretty scarce so far.

What weapon do you guys think is best for this achievement? It is one of the only ones I will need to get on my next playthrough. I'm guessing the rifle or shotgun will be the easiest.

Ok this does NOT work in multiplayer, and should anyone come upi with a good spot for this AFTER game finishing the game would help alot. It was a good game but I really dont want to have to go through it again.

A good spot to rack up a few is the Base Exterior, right after you get the rifle. There are some melee guys that will jump on the zip lines to charge you if you don't kill them. I got 4 before encountering the shield enemy.

I finished the game without completing this achievement and the chatterbox achievement. I spent a little time trying to find enemies on ziplines after the game was complete, but not much luck. I started a new game and it only took me a couple hours to get both of the achievements. I recommend just restarting and just running through it as quick as possible.

Best way to get this achievement... there are very few ziplining enemies toward the end of the game. You should have this achievement by the time you leave Shantytown. Right after you first talk to Grim there will be a a shootout and halfway through the enemies will attach ropes for ziplines. Take out your shotgun and just wait for them to come across the lines. Very easy to pick off. I believe you can get 6 out of the 10 right here. After this fight you have to climb up and ride the gondolas. When you get off of them there will be another battle. Right here there is at least another 6 if not more enemies riding the ziplines. If you miss more than one on either of these two parts I recommend restarting the checkpoint just to be safe. That is all!

The hell? I've been getting loads of ziplining enemies on my playthrough. Then again that might be because I've been playing on hard difficulty. (Mainly cause I thought there was an achievement for beating the game on hard, lol whoops.)

I've heard if you die at any time or restart a checkpoint your counter gets reset to 0.
Seems abit harsh but can anyone confirm that.

Spoiler Alert---------- Here's a good tip I just figured out.. As we know the game auto saves all the time and you are basically screwed for being able to go back and restart a level if you miss some of these guys. You can definitly reload checkpoints as has been suggested, as You want to get this in shanty town when you right after you see Grimm, and the trying to get across to him. What I did was before I started the first part after you talk to Grimm from below with all the dynamite and about 6 guys on zip lines, I hit the start button, and then selected Change Save Slot. This basically gives you a save point at the point in the game when you do this. Then your subsequent saves go to the next save slot, and your previous one stays at where you were before you changed slots. This a

The last point you can get this is when riding the gondola down to Shipwreck Beach I think - if you don't have it by then you can write it off for the playthrough as there aren't any more after that point. People dropping from the ceiling don't seem to count either, I was shooting them in the final room in the base towards the end of the game thinking they might but sadly no luck.

The whole thing about your counter "resetting" if you die is confirmed as false. I had this achievo pop immediately after I died and then killed two guys off ziplines.

There are a few places to get easy kills. The sequence when climbing up to the radio tower has some really obvious opportunities. Shantytown has several as well where they are really easy and plentiful. Also the "boat in the sky" sequence has many as soon as you get on the boat itself. A bit harder here because of the angle, but one shot generally makes them pop off the line and register as a kill, even if the shot itself isn't fatal (This is where I got the achievo to pop).

If you see a dude zipline, and you miss it, then suicide so you can kill them. Usually, if at least one guy is ziplining, then several other

Best way to do this if you already beat the game is to use the guide at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ygkXnXCMeQ&feature=youtu.be

I did feel like I killed more than 10 but I still got the achievement after using this trick.

#18 was right on! I was able to get this achievement and the one for pulling guys off the ledge with the rope arrows at this same spot. Thanks so much!

Looks like this achievement is glitched! I was sure to get over 10 in the Campaign and after finish I retried in Shantytown, used the video postet from # 18!
Also after clearing the Cache, nothing....
looks like i have to start a new run!
