ARMA 3 Apex – Old Man DLC Achievements
Singleplayer achievements
Scenario : Old Man
Notes : The Devil’s Due achievement is really buggy. I’d advise doing the same as I did :
- 1st playthrough : Dome Free ; Respectfully, Sir ; Status Quo ; Man of the People
- 2nd playthrough : Devil’s Due (follow this guide : https://truesteamachievements.com/a2102682/devils-due-achievement) – [truesteamachievements.com]

See Man of the People or Devil’s Due.
Status Quo

Completed the Old Man scenario, giving the counteragent to Dr. Drábek.
After destroying the dome, Keystone will tell you to meet on an island and that they were able to get only a sample. Meet him (advice : save the game) and follow him until you get to his team. There, kill all of them and check the backpack of one of his crew and you’ll find the sample of the cure. Now rush to Dr. Drábek (there will be insurgent soldiers at his location). Give him the cure and escape the island (boat or submersible). The achievement will pop after all the cutscenes (wait until the very end).
Devil's Due
Completed the Old Man scenario, giving the counteragent to the insurgents.
After destroying the dome, Keystone will tell you to meet on an island and that they were able to get only a sample. Meet him (advice : save the game) and follow him until you get to his team.

Campaign : Remnants of War
Humanitarian
Faced with difficult decisions in the Remnants of War campaign, you went for the more humane options.
For this achievement, the developpers gave us these conditions to respect for each specific operation :
- The Peacekeeper: Make sure no supply crate get damaged. Plan your air drop location carefully.
- The Guerrilla: Don’t use IDAP ambulance in the barricade. There are other vehicles you can use instead.
- The Redacted: Don’t kill IDAP doctor. He’ll return back to the church if you wait (the delay is shorter when you identify him).
- The Survivor: Reach the church unarmed. Picking up a weapon is fine as long you drop it and don’t kill anyone.
- The Major: Don’t execute any incapacitated enemy. Spreading mines has no effect on this, the situation justifies it.

Remnants of War
Cleared all explosives from Oreokastro and completed the Remnants of War campaign.
Don’t bother clearing the explosives (apart from the ones that come with the objectives) before “The Major” operation. You’ll get in Oreokastro one last time and you’ll have all the time you need to deactivate all explosives (the church ones as well).
Memories of Oreokastro
Recalled all memories in Oreokastro during the Remnants of War campaign.
Don’t bother recalling the memories before “The Major” operation. You’ll get in Oreokastro one last time and you’ll have all the time you need to recall all of them. The first one you’ll need to activate is the blue panel at the entrance of the small village (Oreokastro, where you spawn), afterwards you’ll see a yellow mark on the map showing you the next memory !
Showcase : Laws of War
Collateral Damage
Completed the 3 VR simulations in Showcase Laws of War without any civilian collateral damage.
Save between each successful VR simulation you’ll have completed (at the end of each simulation the instructor will tell you that there was no civilian casualties).
- Artillery : Wait for the convoy to move from the civilian area, then order artillery strikes on the convoy and it should be OK !
- Mines : Deactivate all the mines (except the ones in the wall) when you’re given a mine detector and a kit. (note : it doesn’t matter if you kill your friends at the start)
- Infantry : I left my squad behind and cleared as properly as I could. My advice for the first room would be to rush for the AK on the floor, this way the civilian won’t turn as an enemy and you’ll have no casualties.

Forward Observer
Destroyed all APCs defending Orino by artillery strike in the Beyond Hope operation.
This achievement is a real pain, there are only 3 APCs BUT, as the artillery strikes are not always a hit, you’ll have to load the game multiple times. The image below shows the APCs locations and the artillery strike area that I set manually (with radio controls). When you’re all set, save the game with start the artillery strike. If all APCs blow up, congrats! Otherwise load the save and repeat until you destroy all 3. Just so you know, it took me ~30 minutes, pure luck. I’ve read some people spent 3 hours with this achievement.

If he’s dead at your arrival (if no Rescue Pilot task appear), restart the mission. Once you’ve saved him (check crates for Medikit), head towards East to 212-099 (Screenshot 2) to rescue the medic. Once you’re done (save the game !), go to the ERV (Screenshot 3).
