How to unlock the Joint Command achievement in Heavy Weapon - Definitive Guide

Start up the Tundra board. Once the board loads, have a second controller join (by hitting 'start' on the second controller) and move the tank to the right of the screen, then ignore the second controller completely, playing only with your primary controller

My "second player" hugged the right of the screen for the entire level and never took any damage until the chopper battle at the end, where it died and I used a life to revive it. I pummeled the chopper with controller 1 until it died and the chievo popped after it blew up.

Super easy Chievo.

** Update**
Thanks to "vegansound" in the comments, it appears you can't have an idle 2nd controller. I never really moved the 2nd controller tanks except for the beginning of the level where I moved it to the right, but I never continually moved the stick or had to elastic the controller to get this one to pop. I look forward to other feedback to clarify this one.

For some reason i didn't get the achieve until i cleared it with both tanks not dying. If you keep both tanks shooting on the right side you should be able to get 100% of the enemies. I only moved to grab supplies and a nuke.
+1 though.

I can confirm that you need to move the second controller at least once to get this to pop. I left it completely idle the 1st go, and nothing. Second time I moved the "dummy" tank once, and got the cheevo at the end of the mission!

How do I do this on Xbox One backwards compatibility? The in-game 360 menu doesn't allow me to sign in with a second profile to play local coop.

Sign the profile in through the Xbox One dashboard first and start up any BC game with that profile in order to download its 360 profile. Then start the game up with your main account and in game press start on the 2nd controller.

I have a problem, I created a fictitious account, but when I try to connect it gives me as a mistake that the profile is not completely downloaded. What should I do? I'm playing on xbox one.

Delete your profile;
Restart the Xbox One;
After restarting, clear the Xbox One cache (press the on/off button for 10 seconds, and wait for it to shu down. Wait at least 30 seconds. Restart your console using THE CONSOLE BUTTON);
Clear the XBOX 360 data (config-storage-clear 360 data);
Download your profile(s) again.

Note that this can only be done using a second controller, not through online co-op.

Another note is to ensure the 2nd controller gets at least 1 kill during the mission. Every other step failed, but after killing a few enemies with the 2nd account, it unlocked without issue. Maybe it was only me, but it's another suggestion for those struggling.

I can confirm that YOU do need both tanks to get kills!
I did it on the first lvl "Tundra Flats" with two controllers, mowing one of them with my pinkies :D

I followed the solution and popped the achievement. However I also got the same "medal" for it in Survival mode as well. I believe that you can get this achievement in both modes.

Again, make sure you get a kill wth your second controller or it won't work.

Had an issue where even after one kill the second controller didn’t count (on xbone BC), I just rubber banded it for the second attempt and it popped after the helo went down

Does anyone know if this can be done with backwards compatibility?

Even though this game is backwards compatible, this achievement has to be unlocked on a 360.

I unlocked the achievement on backwards compatibility using a Series X on June 5, 2022. Just make sure to kill at least 1 enemy with the idle controller if you don't have a friend to help you.

Using the series x, how did you sign in the second controller? It doesn't give me the option to sign in with a guest. Is there a way to do it that I'm missing

I tried twice your solution, but no achievement. Then a friend who did the game told me that the second controller mustn't be idle. So I put an elastic on the right stick of the second controller, upping it, and I had the achievement this way at the end of the first mission.

So don't forget to keep moving the second character. ;-)

Just get a friend or hook up another controller and protect the other tank. First level shouldn't be too hard to keep the other tank alive.

Important: You must kill at least one enemy with the second controller (source: x360a.org)

Easiest to complete on Mission 1 unless you're actually playing with a friend. You can just turn on a second controller and make sure to fire off some shots here and there.

This achievment requires you to have 2 controllers. As soon as you start a single-player mission level press start on the second controller. You must kill at least one enemy with the second tank and finish the mission for the achievement to unlock.

For this achievement you can take a second controller. Select a single player mission and when it starts, press "start" on your second controller. You need to kill at least one enemy from the second controller and just reach the end of the mission.

NOT “you can take a second controller”, but YOU NEED, because... Only with a second controller behind one set-top box on one TV can you get this achievement.
