How to unlock the Breaking and Entering achievement in Max Payne 3 - Definitive Guide
Load up a game of Dead Men Walking on Hoboken Alleys.
Player 1 will be getting the achievement, let this person get the kills to increase their grit.
Player 2 will be keeping harm at bay, try not to kill too many people. A couple here and there will be fine!
You will start out outside, simply take out the wave and then pick up some ammo before moving inside behind the bar. The person going for the achievement needs to go on the left (near the main door) whilst the second player needs to be on the right keeping an eye on for men coming down the stairs.
After a few waves (or whenever your grit meter on the right hand side of the screen has reached its third level) leave an enemy running around and open the two boxes behind the bar. Make your way towards the stairs and at the far right corner of the room there will be a medicine cabinet on the wall (tucked away), open it. Make your way up the stairs and at the top you should see another drawer. If you can't open it go up the next stairway and open the door instead (as it's less grit) then kill the enemy to end the wave.
Keep repeating this process until your grit meter is on it's third tier (or more) then go back and get the drawer on the stairs that you missed before. Once this is done head back up to the roof and open the box to the left of the roof doorway, then head across to the next building, open the door here and inside this room will be several boxes you can open. Same again, take out enemies until you've got enough grit then leave one running around whilst you open boxes.
If you've opened all in this room carry on across the building and you will come to another door, this has a box outside but be careful if you're at the beginning of a wave as enemies spawn here. Down the stairs near this door is also another door.
NOTE: If you can't get across to this position you can return back to the bar area if you have enough grit and re-open boxes there and they will count. If you can however make your way across the map (bar, up to roof, across to second building etc) there are a little more than 15 boxes, crates and doors in total for you to open. More than enough for the achievement!
To lock down a public lobby with a friend just invite your friend to your game and following the instructions below.
In order to do this you must start up the game on "DISK 1"
Choose the following in this order:
1: multiplayer (invite friend here to lock down lobby)
2: playlists
3: Soft Lock(or free aim if you feel thug)
4: Dead men walking
From here it will put you and your friend into a PUBLIC match together and since it is a 2 player coop game no random people will be able to join and it is considered a public match.
~~~GAMEPLAY~~~
Have you and your friend start and do 2-4 waves or until you run out of ammo (you can loot ammo by running over the dead bodies you kill)
You should have by this point about 2-3 bars of "GRIT".
Go into the bar and have one player grab the weapon (first drawer in bar) and the other player grab pain pills (behind the booths in the bar under the walkway with the stairs)
from there just start killing people again for another round or two while grabbing ammo along the way. save up about 1.5 - 2.5 bars of grit.
Sticking together is KEY. both of you should try to do this cheevo at the same time, whereas if one person is just defending you and letting you know where people are only one person will get grit and it will take longer in the long run.
Try to get the following guns:
UZI, LMG, ShotGun.
Never buy anything but pain pills and upgrade boxes if you can help it.
reason being is upgrade boxes will upgrade your gun(duh), but it will also give you ammo and grenades. therefore no need to buy ammo.
keep well supplied on pain pills. max you can hold is 9. If you have 7 and buy a pain pill box you will obtain 2 and you can have your team mate grab the other pain pill for no cost to them.
Don't be afraid to use your pain pills either.
persistence and communication is key here. just keep going.
check your medals also! you will get a pop up at ten open containers if you have yet to play this mode online or you can just keep count.
upgrading the shot gun is OP due to it can have fire rounds
and the uzi is very strong against bosses, but it eats ammo.
If you communicate well and stick together you should be able to get this achievement for both of you by around wave 15.

Dead Men Walking is a new game mode in Multiplayer that plays similar to Halo Reach's Firefight Mode. As Max and Passos, you and your partner will have to fight endless waves of enemies, while using teamwork and skill to stay alive. Each kill grants you points to your new "Grit" meter, which allows you to open new areas of the map via locked doors, and new weapons and pill bottles via locked containers.
Each container or door will have a icon above it with a different color - bronze, silver or gold. These colors match that of your Grit meter, meaning if you have Silver-Grit, you can open a locked, Silver-Door. For the achievement, you must open 15 of these locked doors/container. Take note that only containers you opened will count towards the 15 total count. Any containers your partner opens will count towards their own achievement.
While doors will remain opened after unlocking them, containers will eventually close and you can reopen them on later rounds. Make sure you and your partner have a clear line of communication in order to stay alive as long as possible.
