Introduction
This guide will tell you how to get every achievement within BRINK, as well as provide helpful tips in the process. I will also be rating the difficulty of every achievement in the following: easy, medium, or hard.

Some of the achievements are very hard, if you are unable to get any I after multiple attempts I recommend turning off the bots. If you do not know how to do that please follow my steps below.

How to turn off the bots?


Step One

You must first enable the in-game console
1. Right-Click on BRINK in your Steam Library
2. Click on "Properties"
3. You should be on the "General" tab, if not click on it
4. Click on "Launch Options"
5. Copy the following into the window that popped up → +set com_allowConsole 1 ← (Without the arrows)
6. Click on "Ok"

Step Two
1.Launch any mission or challenge
2. Once in game open the console by pressing → ~ ← (Below the escape key and to the left of the 1 key)
3. Enter the following command into the console → bot_minclients -1 ←
4. Now enter this command into the console → bot_minclients 0 ←
The bots of both teams should no longer be present

**Thank you to Icetex for showing me how to do this!

Yes, that is what I am trying to say. Sorry for the confusion!

Were you trying to say that one can't be done offline you mean? But other than that, everything else is offline?
MonkeyWrench  [author] 11 May @ 4:11pm 
To my knowledge, no. "That mine you found? Disarmed!" can't be done online
RIP420072 10 May @ 5:17pm 
Can all of these be done offline?
