How to unlock the Climbing the Corporate Ladder achievement in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare - Definitive Guide
- Survive 10 rounds
- Survive 25 rounds
- Cook 50 zombies with the magnetron
- Kill 100 zombies with traps
- Kill a goliath with a melee attack
Note: I advise to use this glitch ASAP, because it might be patched in the future.
Start up a game like you normally would; get a good weapon from the box, and open the doors to the burger town to get juggernog. After you've bought Juggernog, at least 1 good weapon (from the 3d printer) and quick revive if you're playing solo, head to the sewers and go to the little tunnel directly beneath the TAC-19.
There's a glitch in this tunnel: Crouch against the wall, roughly in the middle. If you stay in here zombies are not able to kill you. This way you can easily kill zombies, without dying. I've made a short video showing me using the glitch:
Exceptions are:
- You can get hit by the electric zombies and goliath, so your exo suit will reboot(doesn't take health).
- You can get hit by the green zombies as they explode.
- You can get hit by the zombies with the spikes.
This glitch works both solo and coop. You can camp on either side of the tunnel. If you're playing with 4 guys I advise to let 2 guys stay on 1 side and 2 on the other.
POPCORN:
What you will be doing for the next rounds is leaving a zombie alive at the end of each round and keep using the 3d printer until you get the magnetron. Once you get the magnetron keep killing zombies with the magnetron from the tunnel glitch, until you reach 50. I got the achievement in just 2 rounds after I got the magnetron. You will have plenty of cash to spend on the box. I had over 20,000 left in round 20, and used the 3d printer at least 10 times.
INDIRECT FIRE:
You also will want to turn the Insta gator trap on, at the beginning of each round. (I turned it on a couple of seconds after the last sounds that are made at the beginning of each round. The insta Gator is the perfect trap to combine with camping in the tunnel. It's very close to the tunnel, and while you crouch in the tunnel, the trap will kill quite some zombies for you. The zombies will all stand in the water waiting to be killed. I only had to turn on the insta gator 4-5 times to get the achievement.
LOVE TAP
In round 10, 20, 30 and so on, goliath will show up. Simply stay in the spot, shoot him a couple of times, and then start knifing him, until he dies. Be careful not to shoot him too many times. about 8-10 shots with the cel 3 cauterizer was already enough to kill him on round 10.
"
Some tips:
-Take out the zombies that can potentially hit you out first.
- Keep touching the metal wall at all times. If you move a little forward the zombies can hit you.
- Make sure you have enough ammo to make it to the next round. if you're out of ammo, you will have to knife all or most of the zombies before you can get out.
- Before you leave the spot at the end of each round, watch the water for dogs, they are sometimes hard to see in the water.

That was pretty fast of them to fix, I was going to try this method this weekend.
In order to earn the trophy, you have to complete the first 24 waves and enter into wave 25 for it to unlock. The game is increasingly more difficult depending on how many people are in your group and how much you communicate. If you're try to survive until wave 25 then I highly recommend getting contact grenades and either the Cel-3 Cauterizer or the S-12. Upgrade whatever gun you choose to run with as soon as you can. The contact grenades are 750 credits and replace your frag grenades. They can be found at the Burgertown junction in the sewers. The Cauterizer and S-12 guns must be obtained via the 3D printer.
Tips & Strategies:
- Avoid narrow areas where you can become easily trapped, and run around a big area in a circular fashion. For example run around the outside perimeter of Burgertown.
- You can only take two hits before you are downed without the Exo Health Upgrade. Use Exo-Boost to fly out of dangerous situations.
- Use the area traps to help you thin the herd. The Burgertown area trap is quite effective if you are running around that area.
- If you are playing solo, the Exo Medic upgrade allows you to self revive, and can be repurchased and used 3 times in one game.
- Upgrade Exo-Health first. Unless you're playing solo, then get Medic first for the self-revive.
- If you are playing in co-op, pay attention to your group and communicate.
- Be sure to pick up Atlas Drops as they appear on your screen. These could help save you or a survivor.
- Note that you receive one free grenade of each type that you carry after completing each round.
- Remember to pay 2,500 to upgrade your guns to help kill zombies, especially in the later rounds.
- If you are successful at saving a survivor, it will give you one free gun upgrade at the end of the round.
- If you get stuck and swarmed, look down and shoot a contact grenade at your feet to clear away the zombies.
You won't be able to constantly run around Burgertown, as it will be periodically exposed to infection. The message "[BURGERTOWN] ZONE QUARANTINE [INITIATED]" will appear. There are black hatches on the ground with the inscription ATLAS and toxic gas will come out of them. You will have to leave the location and go to the Gas Station or Atlas Headquarters. First, one zone will be infected, then at higher rounds, two locations at once.
Weapon HBRa3 (1250 credits) is sold not on the wall, but on the roof of Burgertown. To survive until round 25 you will have to run between locations. I advise you to get a CEL-3 Cauterizer and a nano-swarm from a 3D printer. And don't forget to buy perks and upgrade weapons. Rescue survivors according to the situation.
