How to unlock the Pointless achievement in Bulletstorm - Definitive Guide

Just as any other guide will tell you, during the prologue, aim for their heads and explode 'em 10 times, before you get to the first dropkit, and you got it. My addition to make the achievement less strenuous for some is to go to the part where you have to pull one of the enemies down from the ledge and knock down the gate-type obstacle that is blocking your path, but DO NOT use your leash on 'em. Instead, headshot 'em, because until you do use your leash on them to destroy the obstacle, the enemies will just keep respawning. I got all 10 headshots just at this one spot. This spot is perfect for those who haven't yet got the achievement to do so.

Petty sure it has to be obtained in the Prologue, because right at the beginning of 1-1 "Just Like the Old Days" is the first Dropkit. And, you have to activate it to open the gate and spawn the enemies.

You need to make sure you add that you play the prologue. I'll change my negative if you add it in.

Unfortunately you have to start on Act 0 Prologue to get this achievement. Once you crash on the planet, when looking for the fusion cell. You will pick up your leash and travel a little ways until you reach a spot where enemies will keep respawing. This is where it will be very easy to get your head shots for this achievement. Watch the vid for more info

I noticed nobody mentioned this, but you can start earning the headshots towards the achievement as soon as you begin the firefight after killing Bryce Novak. I turned the game on very easy and got 7 headshots on the guards. The final 3 headshots I obtained as soon as you encounter the gangs on your ship. You can easily obtain this before even leaving your ship once it crashes.

True story.. i noticed that too and also a helpful hint.. don't hold the RT just bump it to make it seem like a 3 round burst.. that way your gun doesn't go haywire and shoot all over the place..

This achievement is easy. All you have to do is shoot 10 enemies in the head before the first dropkit.

Some easy tips:

-Confirm your kills. Make sure it's YOU and not your team.

-Make sure the bullets are connecting with the skull, or it won't count.

-Must be done BEFORE your first dropkit, but can be done AFTER you get the leash

-Obviously easier on normal difficulty than any other, as body shots are less likely to drop them, so missing headshots isn't too dangerous.

-Act 0 can be reloaded to try again

There are plenty of enemies to get this achievement, so don't stress too much that your gonna miss it if you can't cap their heads.

As other solutions suggest, their is an 'unlimited spawn' point, almost as if the dev's placed it for your convinience.

Now go out and grab this achievo-snub at other FPS's :P

During the Prologue and before accessing your first Dropkit in Act 1, Chapter 1, you'll need to kill a total of 10 enemies with a Headshot.

The best tactic is to let the enemy run at you and stay still! Aim down your sight, aim for the head and take your shots. Another tactic is to kick/slide the enemy to slow them down, giving you more time to aim down the sight and get an easier Headshot as the target isn't moving! If the achievement hasn't unlocked by the time you have to Leash the first Dropkit outside of a closed gate then you'll need to start the Act/Chapter again.

Headshot kills also count during the fight in the office and when you're on the ship looking for Ishi's power cell. So you have plenty of opportunities to get this!

This trophy must be done during the prologue and before you find your first Dropkit which is in Act 1 - Chapter 1. You must execute at least 10 headshots total. This is best done during trophy clean up on Very Easy Difficulty. You should know how to perform headshots in the game and there are plenty of opportunities to get this trophy. Also the shoot out in the office at the beginning of the game will also count towards the 10 headshots. Here's a video for a demonstration:
