In order to unlock the Our Brains And Your Brawn achievement, you must find all 6 NPCs in Chapter 4, Office Complex, and escort them to safety. I USUALLY edit the video to have a text walkthrough, but to be honest, this would be a pain for this video. Instead, I am just going to post the full level playthrough so you can see what I did to get it to unlock.

SAVE FREQUENTLY! I can't say this enough! All it takes is one mistake, or one bad fight to ruin this and cause you to start over! Trust me...I know from experience.

One horrible thing that happened when I was going through this level was at around the 13:15 mark. As I was going up the stairs, my game crashed out with an Engine Error (YIKES!). Every time I rebooted my manual save file, or even the auto save right there, it would crash about 2-3 seconds after loading in. This happened for about 10-15 minutes, and even persisted after uninstalling/reinstalling the game.

I almost gave up and started the level all the way over (AGAIN), but had one last idea. I sprinted up the stairs as SOON as the game loaded in, and SOMEHOW, it worked, and I was able to continue playing. There is a little chunk of missing video here, but it's just a few enemies and a turret (that damn near killed me because I was sprinting like a madman).

I hope this video helps, and again, sorry that there is no text in the video, but that would have just taken a massive amount of time. Just follow what I did, save often, don't shoot friendlies, tell them to stay put if there is a chance they will die and handle the enemies yourself, and you shouldn't have too much problem unlocking the achievement!
