Collect 500,000 energy
Energy in this game refers to adrenaline. You need it to power your applications and keep your DART vision filled. You will get this naturally as you play through the game, but it will come much faster if you are playing multi-player.

Do 250 rampage kills/kill streaks

Application Manager (20)
Do 10,000 points of damage and heal or block 10,000 points of damage using applications
You will eventually get this as you play along. Shield, C2C heal, group heal and e-drain will all earn you points for healing. E-drain will also earn you points for damage, together with backfire, virus and tentative damage.
Middle Management (50)
50% completion (level, research and challenges)
You will get this when you are half way through the game. You must complete levels 1 to 10, and do half of all the research and challenges. You also need to have upgraded your weapons and apps more than half the total number of upgrades.
CEO (100)
100% completion (level, research and challenges)
This is the achievement you get for completing co-op. You need to complete all levels, research and challenges. There are 52 upgrades for apps and 86 for weapons. In total, you will have to make 5000 kills, including liquids and everything else.
The Professional (20)
Kill 50 enemies with all the weapons in the game
You can get the kills for most of the weapons in single-player, except for Electron Mace and Riot Lance. However, if you play online, co-op will be much better for getting the kills for all weapons very efficiently. You can do most of the kills in single player, and then finish up the reminder in co-op.
Hurt Locker (30)
Breach 873 grenades
If you breach a grenade, you will disarm it. You have to wait for an enemy to throw a grenade at you before you can do this. Just aim at the grenade and hold [LB But]. After it has been thrown, you will have around 5 seconds to disarm it and make it part of your weaponry. You can grind this on Kris in Chapter 15 when he is in the second stage, or on the final boss in chapter 20 after killing the twins.
Warpath (5)
Get the rampage bonus up to 5 sequential kills
You can get this easily in single- or multiplayer. In single-player, the first Aspari level towards the end is the best place to get this. In co-op mode, you will get numerous opportunities if you play on Normal by yourself. Alternatively, you can level up your character, fully upgrade the sniper rifle and use it on a group of people.
Make It Snappy (10)
Kill 50 enemies with melee executions
To perform a melee execution, you need to stand close to the enemy and click [RS But]. You can melee all of the lower class soldiers but not all of the enemy types. You can get this in single-player or co-op, or a mix of the two. The chip-rips in co-op count towards this achievement.
Nowhere To Hide (30)
Use a penetration weapon to kill 500 enemies through cover, while in DART Overlay
The weapons that count towards this achievement are the COIL’s secondary fire and the Kusanagi rifles in scope mode. Once you upgrade penetration on the weapons, they will shoot through moderately dense walls. The sniper is the better of the two loadout weapons as it does more damage, and with damage link, one shot will be enough.
Half-Millionaire (30)
Collect 500,000 energy
Energy in this game refers to adrenaline. You need it to power your applications and keep your DART vision filled. You will get this naturally as you play through the game, but it will come much faster if you are playing multi-player.
Hacker (30)
Use breach abilities 300 times
Only abilities are counted here, and not every situation in which you use your “breach” ability. For single-player, abilities include backfire, persuade and suicide. In multiplayer, any ability apart from the default “breach” ability is counted. You will get this as you play along.
Rampageous (15)
Do 250 rampage kills/kill streaks
Rampage refers to three or more kills in quick succession, and is counted if the deaths occur one after another and not all at the same time. You will get this easily with Damage link while using the sniper rifle with the assault scope, or an upgraded minigun.
