How to unlock the You Shall not Pass! achievement in PAYDAY 2 - Definitive Guide
I had 4 meth bags on me when this scenario showed up....what I did was camp on the right side of the van if you are facing the back of it, there is some concrete barrier there....post up there and don't move. *Only applies if you spawn on the bottom level, if you don't spawn on the bottom, reload, or die and reload.
Now wait until the getaway vehicle shows up and the achievement should pop....the vehicle arrives in 3 minutes.
Also I did this on the single player version, all white stars, no yellow.
If for any reason it doesn't pop, simply press start, and reload. The reload will NOT restart the entire meth cook, just the escape scenario.
Good luck.
Overpass Escape can be found after Rats or Nightclub. In order to increase your chances of getting the Escape to appear, you must kill civilians, escape during an assault, or in the case of Rats, blow up the laboratory on Day 1. This is best done on Rats, as blowing up the lab will almost guarantee you get Overpass Escape.
Once you get Overpass Escape, you'll want to split your team up on both ends of the bridge. At least 2 players is recommended, so that you can cover both entrances, as well as a lower difficulty. Once you're in position, simply keep the enemies at bay, then make it to the escape vehicle for your trophy.
All escapes have a degree of randomness regarding which one happens and whether they occur at all. If you finish the prior day without a police assault you will not get an escape. Escapes seem to be more likely to appear on at least a 2 star difficulty.
The Overpass Escape appears directly after either Rat Job Day 1 or Day 2. You will either start on the underpass beneath the bridge or on one end of the overpass itself. Either way, you’ll want to take out all the in front of you.
Spawning on the underpass is by far the easiest. If you just stay down there, the cops will all spawn in front of you, or they'll come down the stairs behind you. Either way, they won't get on the overpass.
If you end up spawning on the overpass, you can still get this achievement. It will just be a bit more difficult as you'll have to actively cover both directions. Teammates makes this much easier. If you were successful, the achievement will unlock for the whole party as soon as the escape vehicle arrives.
