How to unlock the Quiet on the Set achievement in Call of Duty: Black Ops - Definitive Guide
1./ start up a game. When the game starts, look up to see if the weapon box is in front of the lighthouse. If it is not, RESTART. Keep restarting until the box is infront of the light house. You can tell if it is there by a beam of blue light!!
2./ Start by killing zombies. To get max points, shoot them 3X and then knife them. Leave ONE zombie in round 2, you should have enough points to clear the boat (750) and buy one weapon out of the box.
2B./ Here is the tricky part. If you get a Ray Gun/Scavenger, you are set. If you do not, beat this round and play the next round and save up money for the box. Again, leave ONE zombie in round 3 and check the box. You should have enough money to buy 2 weapons. If you DON'T get the ray gun or scavenger, I suggest start over as round 1-3 are very easy. Round 4 and 5 are too but some ppl. aren't that good.
3./ Now, that you have the Ray Gun or Scavenger. You can almost kill George with it. However, neither of these weapons is still enough to kill him. I had the ray gun and by the time I unloaded the whole thing on him, he started to flash orange. I was on round 3 and I also had the FN FAL. I unloaded this on him and it still was not enough. So I had to go to round 4 and get enough money to buy 2 more guns and unloaded them on him and he DIED!!!!!!!!!!
This is a REALLY EASY achievement to do on your own.. it just takes a long ass time.
Here are some tips...
a/ When using the ray gun or the scavenger, BE CAREFUL NOT to kill the loan zombie as he gets really close to George, especially if you have the scavenger. One way to avoid this is to shoot George when he is on land and let him chase you around the circle (start area) and make your way to the REVIVE machine, turn around and unload on him. This way, he will run fast pat the loan zombie.. keep doing this until he dies to avoid killing zombie.
b. You DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT have to upgrade anything. Upgrading takes time and money and you have to turn on the power, find the PAP which means you have to open doors, save more money, kill more zombies, get to harder waves.. its stupid.
I hope this helps you ppl. Trust me, its an easy achievement and much easier doing to solo as you can restart fast if the box is not infront of the lighthouse. :)

Ok, so the first step is to start up a Solo game and keep hitting "Restart Level" until the mystery box is in front of the lighthouse, so you only have to clear one obstacle to reach it. This is going to cost you 750.
Make sure you have enough points to use the Mystery Box 3 or 4 times before you clear the obstacle, since once its clear zombies will start to spawn towards the lighthouse. A general rule of thumb is to wait until round 5 or 6.
Once you have a decent amount of points (I was sitting at about 6000 by the end of round 5) cook a grenade and throw it at your last zombie to turn him into a crawler.
At this point clear the obstacle and go use the Mystery Box until you get either a Revolver, Ray Gun, VR-11, Scavenger, any LMG, or Launcher. Other weapons DO damage him but these do the most per shot/clip. Preferably use the box until you get two of these. These do NOT need to be pack-a-punched, you just need to make sure all your shots connect.
George will take all the ammo in these two weapons and any grenades you have, so do another round if you need points, or if you still have extra money go get another of the weapons listed above from the Mystery Box.
EDIT: Also, if you lead him into the water, it DOES NOT restore his health, so cool him off whenever he starts to freak out. Best bet is to lead him from shore to shore in the beginning of the map.
After you've gone through these 3 weapons he should either be dead or a few shots from it. You'll be able to tell by the color of his spotlight. It will change from BLUE, to flashing BLUE/Orange, to flickering Orange, and finally it will go out. Your character will also comment whenever George's status changes so listen carefully if you're wondering how much longer you've got.
He CAN be in the water when he dies, so again, don't worry about leading him back and forth at the beginning of the level.
i suggest starting to go for it if the box spawns in front of the light house, after round 2 head towards the box/lighthouse, you will have to get lucky here, i did this by getting the scavenger...
hit the box and either get good guns or hope for scavenger, to build money to hit the box i suggest opening the lighthouse door and going to the bottom level, this is the best spot in the map to run circles and build up as much money as possible by spraying LMG/SMG/AR into them....
once you have the scavenger get a crawler or 2 or so and lead george to the starting water where the game starts, run to quick revive and unload into him, when he gets close to you run back to the land and unload some more into him, repeat this until you are empty, i unloaded all ammo into him and still needed more so then i waited for the lighthouse to point to the PAP spot (power needs to be on first) then i PAP'd the scavenger and shot him 2-5 more times and he 'died' and the achievement popped.
*i have heard you can get the achievement with a few different weapons but this is what i did and it worked fairly easily, i believe i got the achievement around round 7-10.
*to make sure you have time to build up money and get the box i suggest always having quick revive and if you can get juggernaug
if evrybody in the game is freezing at the same time because ur all in the water just let him chase you 2 another bit of water and by the time u get there ur screen will not be frozen anymore
hope this helps.
I just killed George with my knife using a little trick I found to get infinite 10points, stand at the water and knife George, when he's on land, that will piss him off and earn you 10points, when you can't boost any more windows by repairing them this is a good trick so you don't have to play another round, which can result in a loss.
I had a Upgraded H115 ( HK21 ) and emptied it on George, I also emptied my galil ( which wasn't upgraded ) together with DMNIGHTWOLF who was shooting his upgraded Galil on George, that when he started flashing orange, when I wanted to start my boosting with the knife again I hit him 3times and he died , I was like wtf, but you CAN damage him without upgraded weapons, if you are with a group of 2-4players who know what they're doing this shouldn't be a problem at all , good luck to everyone !
(Now For The Easy Way) Basically this can be done on solo/xbox live first of all you going to need to rack up some serious points then you're going to want to go to the box. (Note)make sure the box is on the boat below the power room this makes it alot easier or even next to the light house then try and get the scavenger explosive sniper rifle from the box. Then you need to rack up enough points to pack a punch the scavanger and enough points to turn on the power in order for the pack a punch machine to spawn. (Note) once you have the scavanger from the box make sure you have atleast 10.000 plus points to get the power room door open to turn on the power. Then when the pack a punch machine spawns it should appear in one of the regular places like near the juggernog machine or near the quick revive at spawn or behind the light house once you have pack a punched unload every clip of your upgraded scavenger into George (Note) before unloading the scavenger on george get a crawler set up but make sure to keep it away from george because the explosions will kill the crawler and end the round. once you get a crawler start unloading on George hopefully it will be enough to kill him and the achievement should pop. Hope my Guide helped.
Killing Romero is a lot easier if you do it on solo, I killed him by round 5 as I got lucky with the random weapon box and got the scavenger. I also got a death machine perk from a random zombie which made it so much easier to kill him. I DIDN'T upgrade the scavenger, I just used all the rounds on him and then started using a ray gun. First thing you will want to do:
- Make sure the random weapon box is by the lighthouse (you can see the blue light)
- Open the boat which costs 750 to access the lighthouse
- keep trying to get the scavenger out of the random weapon box
- Kill him down at the start in the water so he doesn't go crazy
- You will be able to tell when he's dying as his stage light flickers blue and yellow
Note: You can make George go away by shooting him with the Pack-a-Punched VR11, but this will not earn you the achievement.
The objective here is to kill George A. Romero. This takes a significant amount of ammunition because he has a lot of health. You can tell how much health he has remaining by the color of his stagelight. When red starts to show, he's about halfway dead. When the light flickers red and off, he's very close to death. The more people you have playing in the game, the more health he will have. In addition, once you shoot George, he will rampage towards you and the only way to calm him down is to shoot him with the VR11 or lead him to water.
The easiest way to kill him is by using the Pack-a-Punched Scavenger, but there's a random chance of getting that since it comes from the Mystery Box. Any gun can kill him and if you want a surefire method, just make a crawler, grab the M14 from the boat, and keep unloading it on him in the lake where you spawn. This should take about 9000 points worth of ammunition and 20-30 minutes, but it works.
Refer to this video for further assistance:
1. restart the single player game until a box with a random weapon drops somewhere nearby (in front of the lighthouse or at the starting location)
2. take out the looter from the box (sniper rifle with an explosive charge)
3. saving money (1500 is enough)
4. leave a cripple, or better yet 2 (sometimes cripples die and instead appear completely intact)
5. fire all 18 shells at the director
6. We buy a resuscitator and blow ourselves up so that Sally and a Mustang appear in our hands (very strong dual pistols)
7. repeat the process 2 more times
8. if the director is still alive, the process with the marauder must be repeated, or if he has very little life (the spotlight is yellow), you can try your luck and shoot him with a machine gun
1. It is advisable to do it together, we play until we get a decent weapon, a bullet gun or a blaster, or better yet, both.
2. For convenience, we leave the slider alone to walk with him, and the second one leads the director into the water, he runs to the island and while he is walking through the water towards you, we shoot until he screams, we run to the other side and perform similar actions
3. You will see that over time the color of the spotlight in the director’s hands changes color. This means that you are on the right path and persevere; this process is not quick. For orentir, we used up all the cartridges in 2 blasters and 1 bullet gun and another half from the second. After which the director fell into the water. Yes, 2 bullet guns were upgraded in the improver.
