Wilhelm's Nightmare

Knock 10 enemies off of the scaffolding during the helicopter fly-in in Chapter 7: Golden Gate

How to unlock the Wilhelm's Nightmare achievement in Homefront - Definitive Guide

At the beginning of the Chapter 7 : Golden Gate, you will be flown in a helicopter to the bridge. You will have your grenade launcher to shoot at the enemies as well. When going around in the heli, just keep shooting at the enemies with the grenade launcher. Make sure you shoot it a little behind the guys so they can get knocked off of the scaffolding. You only need 10 and the achievement is yours.

As the other solutions says, if you downloaded the latest update and still cannot get the achievement to unlock, delete your cache. You can do that by going to your memory located on the dashboard under console settings.

Got this first time without the update (cleared my cache a few months ago and hadn't played it since). Pretty certain I didn't hear 10 Wilhelm screams, so either it doesn't matter or it stacked with the ones I did when playing the campaign

Important note: do NOT aim at your targets directly. You want your grenades to hit on the red walls behind them or the ground near them to maximize your chances of them flying off the scaffolding.

As of 5/25/11, it appears the most recent patch has fixed the bug, as I was able to pop the achievement no problem.

I had no issues getting this achievement on May 24 2011.

I might add, though, that if you listen closely enough you can hear the 'dead' enemies scream as they fall down. Once the tenth enemy starts screaming on the way down, the achievement pops.

All these guides work just fine but I would like to add that as of the latest patch this achievement would not unlock. I played the first checkpoint at least 20 times over counting the falling bodies. Everytime I would stack up like 11-16 bodies flying off...no achievement. I deleted my cache and it worked first try as soon as the 10th body flew. If your having trouble try deleting your cache and don't accept the update.

I just did this with the latest patch and it worked for me (after several unsuccessful attempts). It does appear that you need to knock the guys completely off the platforms and you'll have to knock almost all of them off.

Confirming that as of 5/25/11 I was able to get this WITHOUT clearing the cache. Most recent patch must have fixed it.

I was having trouble doing it with the new patch and so I decided to give clearing the cache a shot and it worked fine. I just won it tonight, so I guess maybe it's just a hit or miss or maybe I was barely missing it before.

I had to clear the cache to get it. It worked on the first try as soon as i deleted the cache.

Tried to get this achievement 5 times tonight, each time counting at least 12 enemies flying off the scaffolding. The achievement did not unlock until I cleared my cache AND declined the update when restarting the game.

I think this achievement is so specific in that the enemies need to make the famous "wilhelm scream" when they fall off, hence the achievement name. I know I didn't knock ten people off on my achievement-winning pass, and still got it, so like the other chapter related achievements, I believe it is cumulative too.

Also no cache deleted, and got it on the 5th try. Therefor, I conclude this is NOT cumulative. The previous 3 runs should have been sufficient for me to get it. Definitely heard the Wilhelm Scream more than 10 times during the failed attempts ;-)

At your dashboard go all the way to the right and select your system settings. Now choose memory. You should be at the screen that displays the name of your hard drive. Press y for device options. You will see like format, clear system cache, and something else...switch storage device or something...either way just press x on clear system cache. All this does is delete your updates on games. When you pop your game in don't accept the update (this will force you to play offline) and it should work now.

In the very beginning of the level where you are being flown towards the bridge, you take control of your player. Use the grenade launcher to fire at the enemies and be sure to fire a little behind them so it will knock them off the platform. They must be knocked completely off the platform for it to count.

In Chapter 7, when you fly in a helicopter past the bridge, opponents will shoot at you. Take the grenade launcher (while you are flying, the cartridges on it will be endless) and shoot at them so that they fly up and fall to the bottom.

You need to throw enemies off the bridge at once; reloading the checkpoint will reset the counter
