How to unlock the Shut Down achievement in Hawken - Definitive Guide

A Friend and I got this easy by first selecting a low population server like South America. (From main menu select play then on the top right select the server South America) Then we picked death match. It was only us in the match.

Have your friend get low HP, overheat their weapons then you shoot to kill them.

I've tried it anyway. What exactly is needed? Do I have to let the guns heat up and then kill or while they're hot I'll kill the enemy? I know that when they are locked, it is not possible to kill, because they do not shoot anymore.

Got it legit in coop, 6 players vs 6 bots. Dont think it was pure luck.

This trophy is largely luck based as most people know better than to let their weapons overheat. That said, it will most likely come naturally as nobody is perfect and you will spend a lot of time in one on one fire fights with other players.
If you're focused on this trophy the best advice is to play very defensively, dodging around and flying around when in one on one fights. Try to force the enemy to keep shooting at you while you dodge and try to get them to low health but keep them alive. If you see that they have stopped shooting at you, they are either about to retreat or they have overheated their weapons. Strike when they've stopped shooting and with some luck the trophy will be yours!

You will most likely unlock randomly while you engage in enemy fights. Its basically impossible to know when an enemies mechs weapons are overheated as there is no sort of sign. Would say if any enemy mech stops shooting and tries to retreat follow it chances are its weapons have overheated.

Alternatively this can be boosted with one other person. From the main menu, select 'PLAY' then select 'SERVER BROWSER' and choose a low populated server like Oceania. Look for a Deathmatch and once you are in the lobby, invite your boosting buddy (or boosting group). Once the game starts, lower the HP of your boosting buddies mech and have him/her shoot until their weapon overheats, then kill them.

Note: This can only be done in Online Versus match, not in an Offline Team Deathmatch.

In theory, you need to keep an eye on some enemy and wait until he overheats. But it’s easier to shoot at everyone - one way or another you will come across an overheated one and get it.
