How to unlock the Tide's Out achievement in Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising - Definitive Guide

The reason why it's so hard for everyone including me is because there's a bug in the game - it will continuously spawn enemies unless you hide out in the beach house and kill from there. I tried several dozen times from the south 50cal and as the gunner of the APC and was able to stay alive for a good 20-30 minutes eventually running out of every bullet I had.

Finally - I just hid out in the beach house(which is the lone house closest to the beach) and only about 3 waves of baddies and the mission was over.

Wow, you weren't kidding. As soon as I went in the beach house I just sat there peeking out occasionally to peg guys off, and I passed the section first try and never even came close to being overrun.

Great tip!

This isn't working for me. I've done this hut maneuver twelve times in a row and failed. My FT won't stay grouped in the hut, and the enemies just keep coming and coming. Am I missing something?

Just kidding. Right after I typed that - went into the beach house until the first wave spawned, then took over the 50cal. Mission done in seven minutes. Magic?

In case someone is trying to 100% the game :

Stay in the beach house (closest to the beach), order one guy to take the machine gun at the southern (so a few meters from your house) and send 2 others guys in the woods next tot the house (because a few ennemies will spawn from there). I didn't kill a single guy until the reinforcements come from the north of the village. From there, I stayed in the house, lost all my guys and was able to kill the enemies.

same as the two above i had some trouble with this but i found a way of getting this relatively easy. At the southern end of the village is the mounted gun and i found that placing your team mates in a defensive position in the clump of trees on the other side of the road made this easier as most of the time i had trouble with the PLA guys over there as i couldn't see them to fire at them because of the hill. Please comment to let me know if this one worked for you :)

EDIT: put yourself on the mounted gun looking at the hill in the direction it's pointing. Take a look at your map every now and then too to see just whats happening around town

This one will give you some problems. I just used the mounted gun by the southern entrance and held back as many as i could.
Then i got into the little house/hut thing and planted mines at the entrances and they wiped out like 10 enemys.
Then its just all about how acurate you are and how well you can control your team.
