How to unlock the Reinforcements! achievement in THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD: Remake - Definitive Guide

this achievement was actually a bit criptic for me.

I usally always have a wired controller plugged in on the xbox but when that controller was plugged in I had to start with 2 players (when it shows player 1 "ready" player 2 "ready" on the loading screen you cant get the achievement)

So what I did:

Unplugged my main wired controller restarted the game with my wireless controller -> New Game -> Cooperative Multiplayer -> Start the game -> plugging in my wired controller while the first cut scene is running -> after the cut scene the achievement unlocked.

Ok so it actually worked.

Close the game (while on the Home screen, select the game and hit the "triple line" button to bring up the menu, then select "Quit.")

Turn off your Xbox by holding the Xbox button and choosing "Turn off Console."

Turn on your Xbox with your main controller.

Turn on your second controller.

Turn off your Xbox by holding the Xbox button and choosing "Turn off Console."

Turn on your Xbox with your main controller.

Open the game.

Hit "New Campaign." Hit A on your controller to "Accept." Don't change the difficulty level or score mode. Change multiplayer mode to competitive. Hit "Start New Game." Hit "Play." You'll know it worked if you didn't have to choose your character.

Once in game and you have control of your character, turn on your second controller, and hit X on it to join. Then start shooting.

Can confirm it works the way Alias describes. For some reason even when I was clearly doing what the achievement wants (starting a game with only one player and then having a second player join) it would not unlock until I restarted the console and loaded up without the second controller being active until the chapter was in progress.

You guys have made this so complicated beyond all reason

Step 1 - Sign in with a wireless controller extra as guest and turn it off afterwards
Step 2 - Start co-op game as normal
Step 3 - as soon as first baddie comes up, turn on other wirelsss controller and press shoot


Don’t need to play with wires
Do not definitely need to restart - restarting kicks out the other controller anyway so that’s a pointless waste of a minute or whatever.

This solution is VERY simple.

I found this worked better to start a game in competitive with the second wireless off. This doesn't require player 2 to be active to start like co-op did. As soon as whatever mission you choose starts up you can engage the second controller, fire a shot, and get that sweet sweet achievement crack.

So just on the double wireless controller setup - here's how to do it.

Start up your console, and while on the home screen - sync another wireless controller ( the second ) to the console. Once done, turn off the controller from the X controller button. Now restart the console. Load up THOTD, using your main controller and start playing the game.

As soon as you load into Chapter 1, press the centre X Button, ( the second controller ) and it will sync to your console. Now press shoot during gameplay on 2nd controller, achievement unlocked.

Ok guys this was simple enough to do for me, with two wireless controllers.

Start at main menu and choose cooperative with your main controller, DO NOT TURN ON YOUR SECOUND CONTROLLER YET.

Start your game don't worry about second player being ready.

I played through the first chapter alone and started the second chapter, I killed the first three zombies and waited for the next section to load, once back in game I turned on the second controller, and the achievement unlocked.

Good luck guys.

To unlock this achievement, you need to make sure your second controller is turned off (and/or unplugged) so your console and the game don't see it. Then, start up a new campaign and enable either cooperative or competitive mode. As long as your second controller isn't visible to the game or console, it should let the game start without needing to ready up your second controller. Then, once the game starts, simply turn on your second controller and join in to unlock this achievement.

As a side note, I have seen other solutions required ridiculous things such as powering down your console, hard resetting, juggling controllers back and forth, etc. None of this is required. I play with a wired controller. I simply did nothing with my wireless controller, keeping it off. I went to New Campaign, enabled cooperative mode, and then after the opening cutscene I turned on my wireless second controller, joined, and achievement unlocked.
