You have to shoot and kill all four snipers. The hanging people don't matter.

Adding onto FLIPADELPHIIA's solution, you can also choose to shoot the ropes holding the soldier and civilian, freeing both of them. You'll still have to kill all the snipers to get the achievement, but this way, you won't feel bad for killing the hanging people. :)

After the cutscene with the two hanging men at the beginning of chapter 9 you can either kill the hanging soldier for the ‘Damned if You Do’ achievement or shoot the snipers for the ‘Damned if You Don't’ achievement. You can then restart the chapter for the opposite choice which will earn you:

This is a decision based trophy unlocked fairly early in chapter 9.

There will be two people hanging from a sign. You will be surrounded by snipers and have to choose whether to kill the two people or attack the snipers and start a firefight.

For this trophy, attack the snipers. Duck behind the car to the right and snipe the sniper closest to you over the car's roof. If you try to do this out in the open on anything above easy, you'll most likely be mowed down.

This trophy will not pop until the next checkpoint so you'll have to play through a second time for the other choice.

This is a decision based trophy. Very early on in Chapter 9 you will have to make a choice whether or not to shoot the hanging captives. To unlock this trophy do not shoot the captives and attack the snipers. The trophy will pop after you have killed the snipers and have reached the next checkpoint.


If you need additional information or just prefer visual aids then refer to FLIPADELPHIIA’s video below.

Right in the beginning of Chapter 9, rappel down and continue on. After the cutscene, will be surrounded by snipers. You can either follow their orders and shoot the civilian or you disobey and shoot the soldier.

For this achievement, you will need to open fire on the enemies. Do this by making your way behind the car on the right hand side, and shooting the snipers one by one. The game automatically saves after your decision, so you will have to get the achievement for the other decision using chapter select, or another playthrough

Also in the same place in Chapter 9, on the same bridge, we begin the battle with the mercenaries, but do not touch the hanging people.
