How to unlock the Is Anyone There? achievement in Portal: Still Alive - Definitive Guide

Turrets are found in only three levels of the game toward the end. Make sure you save after destroying each turret if you want to be extra careful, or at least save at the beginning of each level with turrets in them. Turrets can be found at the following locations:

Test Chamber 16: 12 Turrets
Test Chamber 18: 4 Turrets
Test Chamber 19: 14 Turrets

This achievement will unlock as you cross the catwalk to the boss fight at the end of the game.

Note: Rocket turrets do NOT count toward this achievement. It is ok if they hit you (but try not to let them anyway, hmm?)
Also, if you have already played through the game and didn't get the achievement you do NOT need to start from the beginning. You can start from Chapter 8, TestChamber 16 and still get the achievement. This has been confirmed.

Here is an awesome video from our buddies at AchievementHunter.com:

can we start on a certain chapter that the first turret is introduced? or do we have to play the entire thing over again?

In the "Out of the Blue" achievement where you're supposed to only go through the orange portals for the whole game you can start at the chapter where you obtain the orange portals and still get the achievement, so it is possible that you can start at Test Chamber 16 (whichever chapter it's on) and still get it, but I'm not sure. If you want to go ahead and confirm whether you can or not that would be awesome! Otherwise I'll play through on someone else's GamerTag who doesn't have it yet and find out for you. :)

After playing earlier, I can confirm that starting from Chapter 8, TestChamber 16, will infact get you the achievement. I'd also like to note that in any given time while trying to do this you get shot, you can load a previous save and start from there, and the achievement will still be attainable.

Can you skip over 17 then, since it has no turrets?

@Avengerr: I believe this is for doing it in one playthrough. Not necessarily all at one time.. You can save and quit and come back another time, but you can't chapter select and get this achievement. So you will need to play level 17.

Did all levels separately and didn't get the achievement. So yeah you have to go through the entire game starting from chamber 16.

Do this on your second play through. Save at the begining of each test chamber, so if a shot is taken you dont have to start at level one.

this is easy if you have played portal before becuase you will know the location of all the turrets. But if you haven't then be cautious around turret's. Also rember that the treets will talk when your near them and also make sure to watch out for ambush spots.


thank's to for this bit of infromation:

Also remember you can use objects as cover, for example, a few times I picked up a Cube and used it to block the turret's fire, and walked straight toward the turret, knocking it down with the cube. This is kind of risky though, because turrets spray fire everywhere when they are knocked down, so duck behind the cube as soon as you do this and you should be ok.

Do you know if you get hit by a bullet, can you just let the turret kill you, and play that part again until you don't get hit? :)

To get this achievement, you have to avoid the automated turret fire. You can destroy turrets by knocking them over, but be careful because they will fire off several rounds before they are destroyed. You can also pick them up and turn them, so they face the wall. In some cases, its very easy to just place a portal high on the wall or ceiling far away from you and then place another portal underneath the turret, transporting it far away. It will almost certainly fall over and deactivate.

Turrets can be found in the following test chambers:

- Test Chamber Sixteen (12 turrets).
- Test Chamber Eighteen (4 turrets).
- Test Chamber Nineteen (14 turrets).

The achievement will unlock as you walk across the long catwalk leading to the chamber where you find GLaDOS.

Below is a video demonstrating how to get this achievement:
