How to unlock the My Turn Now achievement in Alien: Isolation - Definitive Guide

Maintenance jack is used automatically when you press cn_RT

Can be done right at the beginning of Mission 4. Walk down the hallway until you see an android that's facing to the right. The first time you can even run up to him and hit him quickly, but the next few times he seems to be more aware.

Hit him twice and immediately step back so he doesn't grab you. Run back to the beginning of the Mission and wait for a few seconds. Take your time and walk back. He will be standing in the same are and you can hit him again. On easy he takes 7 hits, so you have to repeat this 3 more times.

I have tried this twice and not gotten this achievement. This guide is clearly missing some important info somewhere.

You have it unlocked now. Did this work out?

Apparently it unlocked at some point after I'd logged off for the day. I had checked several times while attempting to do this to see if it unlocked but didn't give me a notification (which it hadn't). My achievements have been really glitchy ever since Destiny released for some reason.

This is bugged, I used a shotgun and unlocked it. Not sure how or why it unlocked, I used the shotgun many times before and nothing special happened.

Same here. It unlocked for me, when I used the bolt gun for the first time.

Worked like a charm! In case anyone's interested, on Hard difficulty the android requires 14 hits to take down.

This glitched for me also. I shot an android with the shotgun (one shot kill) and the achievement popped

13 hits on hard for me. 3 the first time and then 2 every time until he died.

Same here with the boltgun, but not the first time. I had killed a few of them so this was like the 5th android beaten with it. Ah well, one less thing to do on the second playthrough.

^Headshots can definitely work. I kept using shotgun at point blank & got it in 5 kills. Saved a bit of time

Start up mission 4 and walk around past the reception and continue down the walkway you'll come across an Android with he's back to you slowly walk up to him and use cn_RT twice and then turn and run away back to the start thus losing him. Once back at the start start making your way back to him and creep up on him and do the same as before then return back to the start and do this one final time and he will die netting you the achievement.

Just be very careful after you return to him because if you run or walk up to him he probably will turn around and chase you.

Maka91 offered me he's video to show how its done so thank him.

I realize there's already a few guides up but here's my video contribution.

This details how to get three achievements at once (including My Turn Now) for the first android encounter of the game.

I use some extra features such as the air filtration to disrupt the android's vision, and detail exactly where to go/what to do.

(Note: I did this on Normal mode, so your results may vary depending on difficulty).

Hope it helps!

I would like to add that you can get this without using the Maintenance Jack at all. I was using the Bolt gun to make headshots on the Androids that spawn behind you when you Overload the Beta Core to activate the Purge (Mission 14)

I remembered getting it this way on the 360 version as well. So you don't need to go out of your way or care that much on your first playthrough.

To get this achievement or trophy you must kill a synthetic in hand to hand combat. The best place to do it is at the beginning of Chapter 4. You can seee how to do it in the video.

Synthetics need three melee combats to die. If you can manage to find a nearby place to hide, start the combat and run to the hideout. Do several times and piece of cake.
This is basically what you see in the video.

This can be gotten as early as the 4th mission. I suggest doing this on easy so the Android doesn’t react as fast to you. Simply crouch walk up to the first android and hit it with the maintenance jack, run away until it loses interest and repeat the process until it is dead. You should also earn Fault Detected and Not a Scratch if you take no damage.

Here is a video guide by PowerPyx showing this method:

Ever wondered if the smokebombs have any use? They actually do. Aside from being the only item that only cause the Alien to drop, but not investigate it also allows you to sniff Alien or Android booty completely unharmed.

Load up M12 and sprint all the way through the level until you reach the point where you have to turn on 3 generators.
After you turn on the one in the middle an Android behind you will spawn/stand up, plant a smokebomb before doing so and craft a 3rd one. Turn on generator, turn around and wack the Android twice.
Take a few steps back, toss smoke and wack him again.

Any mission after getting the smoke is fine obviously, but chances are the Alien is around.

To obtain this achievement, you only need to use a special tool. The Taser and EM mine cannot be used. Therefore, you need to hit the android from behind, run back, hide, and strike again until he falls down.

Hiding in a closet in front of the android, you get the opportunity to inflict damage on him with a special tool with a 100% probability immediately after he pulls you out of hiding and you break out after pressing repeatedly . Repeat this simple maneuver 6 times - the prize is yours.

You just need the key for the prize to be counted and don’t try to kill him on hard – it’s too difficult.

If you have lost a lot of health, hide in the ventilation, he won’t reach you there.
I received it myself at the Sigson Center, the ventilation is comfortable, you climb, it locks, and you hit it from the back.

To get the trophy, you just need to kill the android with a bolter; you don’t need to run back and forth with the key. Even on hard, one shot at close range is enough. Can be knocked out immediately after receiving a bolter in Chapter 14 by killing an android in a chemical protection suit

Bolter kills will not give you this trophy.

The trophy is glitchy. Got it by killing an android with a shotgun.
