How to unlock the I pushed the button and lived! achievement in Payday: The Heist - Definitive Guide
For this trophy you must choose the Overkill difficulty. When playing the Diamond Heist, you will sometimes have access to the big diamond. There will be a door on the right wall that leads to a small room inside the vault. In this room you will find the big diamond. Whether there is a door or not is completely random and you might have to restart the heist a few times before you can find the door. Check the "Don't lose face" trophy description for tips on how to beat the heist on Overkill difficulty.
You have to bypass all three consoles at the start of the heist without being seen by the guards. If the alarm goes off before you finish the last console, then the door to the big diamond will be locked for the entire heist. If the alarm goes off after you bypass all three consoles you can still get the big diamond even if the vault is not opened or the codes failed.
Once the vault opens you can see if there is a door or not on right wall. If there is no door you have to restart the heist. But if there is a door, then make sure that nobody breaks any glass to steal the diamonds inside the vault. If you break a glass before the door to the big diamond is opened, it will be locked for the entire heist. So the first thing you have to do is to push the button beside the door that leads to the big diamond. Once the door is opened, you can start breaking the glass and steal the diamonds.
The big diamond will be locked in a glass case. In order to steal the big diamond, you will need the glass cutter. The glass cutter will be placed at the location where you started. It's a good idea to let one player stay behind at the starting point until the door to the big diamond is opened. He could then pick up the glass cutter and run down to the vault.
Once you get hold of the big diamond, you have to successfully escape and complete the heist before the trophy will pop up. All players who aren't in custody and have played from the start of the heist will get the trophy, regardless of who picks up the big diamond.
