Alternatively, during finales, the Survivors instantly respawn in rescue closets while the initial radio activation dialogue is over and the rescue vehicle hasn't been summoned.

− | * Another way to achieve this on the Xbox 360 is to get to the [[Runway Finale]] on [[Dead Air]] on Easy difficulty. Have the Survivors use two [[Assault Rifle]]s and two [[Auto Shotgun]]s (thus, the player should play as Zoey so her Bot AI doesn't use the [[Hunting Rifle]]). Clear all of the Infected, and stock up before activating the rescue. Run past the large aircraft parked in front of the [[Rescue Vehicles#Runway Finale|C-130 Hercules plane]], all the way until you are touching what appears to be police line tape. From there, the horde will primarily come from in front of the Survivors but have spawned from behind the tape as well as down the broken aircraft shaft to the right. Special Infected will spawn while on the tape but will not engage or advance to the Survivors, with the exception of [[The Tank]], until you make your run back to the C130 during the escape. The first Tank will usually get stuck on the opposite side of the large aircraft, making it an easy and relatively effortless target to kill. The second Tank will come from just to the right of the large aircraft over a nearby truck. Keep in mind this |

This method helps earn both the NOTHING SPECIAL and [[UNTOUCHABLES]] achievements simultaneously. It may take several tries to accomplish this. As of January 5th, 2011, the glitches in this method have not been patched. |
+ | * Another easy way requires the use of the Developer Console. It can be activated in the Options menu (go to "Keyboard/Mouse", then Enable the "Allow Developer Console" option) and then displayed by pressing the tilde (~) key. Start a single-player game, and as the host of the server, you are able to kick Special Infected in the game. Type into the console: bind "h" "kick Smoker; kick Hunter; kick Boomer; kick Tank". Pressing the "H" key will now remove any Special Infected in the game. This does not require turning on cheats and thus the achievement can be obtained. |

* You can get this achievement as a survivor using the following scenario (This is confirmed to work). Set up a versus friends-only game hosted on a local server, using two controllers and bots (See [[Crash Course]] for an explanation on forcing game into a local server). Make sure the 2nd player guest is a survivor, and primary account is an infected. After the game has loaded, do not spawn as an infected. Using the second controller, do not leave the safe area. Grab the shotgun and shoot a survivor bot until they start to heal themselves. When the bot starts to heal himself or herself, repeat the process with a different bot until all three bots have used their health packs. Now, shoot each survivor until their health is just above the point of incapacitation. Now, all you have to do is shoot the three bots and incap them all within 5 seconds and the achievement unlocks for the host account. |

Revision as of 17:07, 27 September 2020
Left 4 Dead includes achievements for Steamworks and Xbox Live. There are 73 achievements in all for the PC version of Left 4 Dead, but only 65 for the Xbox 360 version; the Outbreak achievement is not in the Xbox 360 version of the game and Survival Pack on Xbox 360 adds no new achievements due to technically being only a patch, not a DLC. There are currently 100 achievements for the PC version of Left 4 Dead 2 (one of which, Valve Gift Grab 2011, can no longer be earned by normal means) and 65 achievements for the Xbox 360 version.
- Survival Pack adds 7 new achievements to Left 4 Dead for the PC version only.
- Crash Course adds 10 new achievements to Left 4 Dead.
- The Passing adds 10 new achievements to Left 4 Dead 2.
- The Sacrifice adds 5 new achievements to both Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2, and for the Xbox 360 and PC as well as Mac.
- The Cold Stream update added 2 new achievements to Left 4 Dead 2 called Stream Crosser and Connecting Fights, although the latter achievement is actually keyed to the conversion of the Dead Air campaign in Left 4 Dead 2. As a reward for 60,000 players earning the Connecting Fights achievement, Valve released a beta version of the Blood Harvest campaign for Left 4 Dead 2.
- A special holiday-themed achievement, called Valve Gift Grab 2011 — L4D2, was added to the PC version of Left 4 Dead 2 for a limited time in late December 2011.
- The achievement Good Guy Nick is achieved by surviving a campaign with players who obtained their copy of game during free weekend.
- The Last Stand Community Update adds 30 new achievements to Left 4 Dead 2.
Note: Since the Crash Course update, achievements cannot be earned with cheats turned on (sv_cheats = 1), however, one way is to play on Versus mode with everyone helping each other to get achievements. Another easy way to obtain achievements is to create a server in order to exploit the console commands.
