How to unlock the Real Action Hero trophy

    This takes place on Episode 9 - Independence Day, when the objective is to "Get to the Boat". Before going to the balcony, use the armoury to equip a Bald Eagle with Optics and a Heavy barrel, as this is the best weapon combination to use for the achievement. As you reach the balcony, a cutscene will begin where you begin to zipline and are hit by a helicopter. As you change direction, your character will pull out his pistol and you must kill an enemy before hitting the balcony, which is about a 2-3 second window of opportunity. Aim down the zipline, slightly to the right, and shoot at the flashlight. Pause your game just as you are about to hit the balcony! If you got the kill, the achievement/trophy will unlock, and if you didn't select "Restart Checkpoint". If you wait too long, the game will not allow you to restart the checkpoint. Keep trying until you kill someone!

    As Wayens said, but pro tip one....shoot straight down. There's a light shining into your direction from the balcony, that's a guard, easy kill can't miss him. Don't try to go for the visible guys on either left and right.

    After cracking the safe, you will have to leave by zipline.
    Once you do, however, a helicopter's rotor blades will cut the line, causing you to bounce up into the air and then fall.

    As you fall, you will first be facing the balcony you left from, swarming with guards.
    Choose a flashlight point and shoot off a few rounds. If you shoot a guard dead, you will get this trophy.

    Otherwise if you miss, wait until you crash through a window into a group of armed soldiers and hit Option and choose Restart from Checkpoint to try again. (Any earlier and the restart option would be grayed out. Any later and the game will autosave again.)

    Good luck!
