How to unlock the Last Voice of Danforth achievement in State of Decay: Year-One - Definitive Guide

This is an achievement for 1 of the 2 alternate endings.

In order to get this achievement you must rescue civilians that are being relayed by a lady on the radio. This lady is Vienna Cho and in order to get her to join your community you must earn her trust which is done by safely evacuating civilians. Eventually she will call for help at which point you can rescue her and bring her back to your community.

If Sasquatch is in your community and you met all the requirements to trigger the option of arming the nuke, you will have a mission with Vienna where you are tasked with disarming the nuke from being detonated.

Disarming the nuke will reward you with this achievement however it will void the other achievement where you must detonate the nuke.

It is also possible to get the achievement by having Vienna Cho in your community and ignoring Sasquatch's missions or him being dead.

**There is a way to unlock the achievements for both endings in one play though by using the cloud save as a backup. Get to the end of the game where you have Vienna Cho in your community AND have the option of arming the nuke. Once you are at this point, disconnect from Xbox Live and continue playing offline.

Complete the criteria for either of the achievements and wait til the game loads back up into the title screen after the credits. Delete the save for State of Decay off of your console and then connect back to Xbox Live. Once you boot up the game again, you will be awarded the achievement for having completed the criteria. Now just go for the other achievement while connected to Xbox Live and you saved yourself ~5 hours.

Disarming the nuke does not unlock the achievement. It appears all the missions must be completed and you have to be given authorization to evac to get it.

Yeah, after you disarm the nuke, you have to call in to say you are ready for extraction. Then after one last Siege, you'll get the ending and it will pop.

I did this offline, the extraction came and no achievement.

*Edit: I restarted my xbox to sync back up my save and the achievement popped. I didn't know that was a thing.

Question: Vienna Cho just said she was getting off the radio because I let too many civilians die. Will she still ask to be rescued or did I void this ending?

I did both endings offline like described above and they unlocked after I restarted my xbox and launched the game.

Same as Auston53, after following FoxHound22's guide.

What I wanted to add is that after taking her to disarm the nuke, you return to base and the objective changes to "Prepare for evacuation". You need to actually open up the base management screen and select the only option the radio tower has, otherwise the next siege won't end the game.

I had Cho at my base when I "lost" the game (forced extraction) by failing to rescue the last three important NPCs and having Sasquatch die on me, and the achievement popped. It's not necessary to reach the endgame at all.

Thanks a lot for this guide! It worked like a charm following FoxHound22 instructions. Really wouldn't want to do a whole playthrough of lifeline again. Did the mission for Sasquatch first, then for Vienna, both offline and restarted my xbox after deleting my local save for the 2nd time right after Vienna's ending. Both achievements unlocked as soon as I went online again.clap

Can't get this to work, tried twice now. Armed the nuclear bomb and extracted both times. Still have my save from before going offline but, not getting credit for what was done offline... Also, there are no credits for Lifeline, just the endgame screen with the scorecard.

EDIT- OK, so I tried a third time. This time I disarmed the nuke and evacuated. This time I tried connecting to Live before deleting my local save (before loading the game though). No achievement, and save data was gone. So yeah, don't try that. Three times to no avail though.
