How to unlock the Field Medicine achievement in Ion Assault HD - Definitive Guide
This cannot be done in survival mode. I fulfilled the criteria for this using survival mode first and the trophy did not pop. I don't think the trophy is glitched, just poorly worded. Given that this feat is easier to achieve in campaign mode anyway, it does not particularly matter.
In campaign mode extra lives are awarded every 100,000 points achieved. With that in mind you want to try to end a stage near to a multiple of 100,000 - for example 98,000. When you enter the next level combo from the start, you would only need ‘5 x 20,500’ to reach beyond 200,000 which would get you two extra lives.
