"Get torn apart by zombies"

I played as a character I didn't care about and let a few zombies kill me- I didn't get the achievement- how can you complete this?

[Bronski]

I just did this in the last day or so. I picked someone I didn't really care about and found a horde and ran them into the middle of it. I didn't do anything until they died. It unlocked fine for me.

same thing here. no need for special zombies, run into a group or horde, i chose an open part of Marshall and took a nobody and let them at it. after you get real low, and you'll get up a few times thinking you'll maybe live, but then they'll get you. you get a pretty sweet hero from that, so do it. i did it on my first go and i had no problem unlocking, Blue Hoodie (Amelia Crassman(?)), i think. she's SO worth it. Best fighter IMO. If you don't succeed try once more. i was in BD level 4 when i got to it but i don't think it's level specific.

I wasted an unwanted survivor at an infestation to get this ach. Didn't work???
Next day, lost a welcome survivor the old fashion way. Achievement appears.
Could they be measuring the pack?

I tried it with another player, it worked the second time around.

"Types of deaths
Torn apart by zombies

When a character loses all health, they enter the "struggling" state. The screen turns near black and white, the character sits down, covers his/her head and the prompt "Press [...] to get up" is displayed on the screen.

At this point, each attack from surrounding zombies directly reduces maximum health. When the character's max health depletes, he/she gets torn in half by two zombies. Occasionally, when the zombies cannot do the "tear in half" animation (due to them being obstructed by the environment or some other reason), the character simply lies dead or get bitten in the neck.

Note: Dying this way is required to get the "Torn apart" achievement in State of Decay, and to unlock the hero character Jacob Ritter in Breakdown. "

When I got it there was no doubt. 2 hordes, a feral and a hand ful of armored zombies. They were all pulling on him in different directions for about a min and a half. I f I had a grenade would have been able to go in blaze of glory.
