Complete the Campaign on any difficulty

 

There are 8 levels in total. Complete all of them on any difficulty to unlock this achievement.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/-gOqjg==.jpgBattle-Hardened50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete the Campaign on Hard difficulty

 

You must beat all 8 levels on the hard difficulty. To be honest, hard in this game isn't that bad. As long as you don't stand in the open, you will be fine. Be aware, if there is a control point that needs to be hacked, sometimes you can just avoid enemies, sneak around them and access it. Sometimes this will be the end of the level, or it will open up a new area and you can leave the enemies behind. Basically, only fight when you really need to and if you do need to fight, take cover often. Fight from a distance if you can.

 

There are a couple of boss fights which can be challenging, though if you have the right loadout they are managable.

 

One is against Thorns ship (I think). You'll need crash missiles for this one and/or crash rounds for your machine gun. If you see a red crosshair on the ground, near you, move!

 

The other is against Thorn. A machine gun with napalm rounds and a missile launcher with the same work wonders.

 

Note: I can't quite recall these battles, so if I have the enemy wrong, or the weapons, please let me know. I will eventually record videos for these fights...

Earn 60 Stars

 

For this achievement, you must earn 60 stars in "Offline" matches. This doesn't mean you need to pull your internet cable, but instead play locally against bots. Depending on the difficulty you choose, you will earn varying amounts of stars per match. Easy is one star, medium is two and hard is three. In order to be awarded stars, you must win the match. You can play any of the modes, Swarm, Conquest etc, with any number of bots. As long as you win, you will receive the stars.

 

If playing without the DLC, you need to complete every single map in each mode on hard. For this reason, I highly recommend obtaining the DLC, as you will have a lot more lee-way. With the DLC, there are 192 available stars, whereas in the base game there is literally 60.

Win a complete game of Swarm without dying on Medium or harder difficulty

 

This is easy if you have some friends to play with, however, it can also be done with bots. When choosing your loadout, try to choose napalm grenades and napalm mortar (if they are available to you). Stand next to a supply depot and constantly bombard the control point. If you're under fire, retreat until your shield regenerates, then continue blanketing the control. When you have enough money, you may want to bring down a mech.

 

The best map is Whiteout in my opinion. Refer to "Exterminator" for tips on beating the map.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/+PlJng==.jpgAgainst All Odds10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Win a complete game of Swarm

 

Swarm mode is a horde style mode, where wave after wave of enemies are sent to hack your control point. You must defend your control point from these enemies for 15 minutes, in order to win a Swarm match. Every 5 minutes an airstrike will be called to help you, it will wipe out all enemies on the map, so keep this in mind when defending.

 

You can defuse the control point if it is hacked, though there is a small window in which you can do so. Around 30 seconds.

 

Refer to "Exterminator" for map specific strategies. This achievement can be done on any difficult, so it shouldn't be much of a problem.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/+RmxDQ==.jpgIn the Membrane30 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Win a complete game of Swarm on Insane difficulty

 

One of the hardest achievements in the game. You're going to need a competent group of friends to stand a chance of completing this. Personally, I did this on the Overseer DLC map with two friends. Two of us had rocket launchers with napalm missiles and a machine gun with napalm. The other had a machine gun + napalm and a sniper rifle. Now, if you can't already tell, napalm is really important to any swarm strategy. Generally, most enemies will head towards the control point and stand next to it, oblivious to the fact that they're standing in fire.

 

Everyone stays inside, near the control point. Shoot rockets as the enemy comes through the doorway. Make sure friendly fire is off, so that you can shoot at will. Let your friends know when you are making a run for ammo, so that they can cover you. Also, two people should have det packs and napalm grenades, the other needs a repair tool and det packs. When someone gets $100, order a mech. Once the mech arrives, whoever ordered it should get in, and head inside, right next to the control point. Every time an enemy comes around the corner, melee them. Most will die very quickly.

 

You'll need to watch out for engineers, as they are quite strong and can take your health down very quickly. The mech needs to stay alive. If the mech user is getting low on health, call for help from the person with the repair tool. The two non mech users, need to set up some missile turrets outside, as what really makes or breaks the run is whether you can destroy the enemy mechs. Two will come the first time, if they get to your mech user, they will kill him, therefore it is imperative that the two "Outsiders" focus their fire solely on the mechs.

 

If you have made it this far, you only really have one more obstacle. Around the 3 minutes remaining mark, three mechs will arrive. If you can kill them or at least keep them away from your own mech inside, you will win.

 

It may take several attempts, but this method is solid. Keep in mind that you will need to level up in ranked matches or complete specific achievements in order to unlock all of the napalm rounds and equipment.

 

Note: If anyone has done this on a non-dlc map and has a solid strategy, please feel free to share.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/+zi4uA==.jpgExterminator40 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Win a game on each map in Swarm on Hard or Insane difficulty

 

There are four Swarm maps (in the base game): Eden, Prometheus, Zephyr and Whiteout. While they vary in appearance from one another, the strategy to win is mostly the same for all of them. You will need some mildly competent teammates, as the friendly bots just aren't up to scratch. To win on a map, you need to maintain control of your control point for 15 minutes. If the enemy hacks your control point, you have a limited time to defuse it before the mission is failed.

 

Note: The supply depots need to be very close to the other turrets in order to auto repair them.

Legend:

*Star = Player

*MG = Machine Gun Turret

*S = Supply Depot

*M = Missile Turret

*C = Control Point

 

Eden -

http://oi55.tinypic.com/2sb4fnd.jpg

 

As shown in the picture, you want to have minigun turrets and supply depots set up on each of the elevated areas. They have a direct line of site to the control point that you're trying to defend, so they will make light work of most enemies. The turrets above the control point are not entirely necessary, but will help. In regards to your load-out, napalm grenades are essential. If an enemy makes it to the control point, start throwing your grenades with reckless abandon. The enemy will usually stand in the fire, making for an easy kill.

 

Keep an eye out for the mechs and engineers, as they can really ruin your day. Make sure everyone focuses fire on them, using crash mortars/crash missiles for the mechs and any fire based weapon for the engineers.

 

Whiteout -

http://oi52.tinypic.com/2h4hpus.jpg

 

This in my opinion is the easiest map. The enemy will only come from the front and sides, as opposed to every direction on the other maps (except Prometheus). Use the repair tool to maintain your turrets, with special attention paid to your supply depots. They can repair the other turrets, so you must not allow them to be destroyed. All players should choose riot mortars and bombard the control point if enemies get close.

 

Zephyr -

http://oi53.tinypic.com/2vtuvjr.jpg

 

Each player basically takes a side to watch to begin with. Riot mortars and repair tools are again the order of the day. Your aim here is to get someone a spare $100, so they can order a mech suit. If you want to expedite the acquisition of the mech suit, refrain from building the turrets in the top right. Instead have that player buy the mech suit and stay near the control point. Anyone that comes near should be crushed with the mech suits melee ability. Have the player on the bottom level heal the mech if necessary, or the "mech player" can stand by a supply depot between fights.

Prometheus -

http://oi52.tinypic.com/35hfix0.jpg

 

The toughest map. It is very hard to find an efficient place to position the turrets. My team placed them in somewhat of a semi-circle near the control point. Throw napalm grenades if anyone gets close to it, which they probably will. Teamwork will make or break you on this map.

 

Note: These layouts are "Best case scenario's" you may not be able to get all of the turrets up, as shown in the pictures. Just try to get as many up as you can and you should be fine. If anyone has better strategies, feel free to post.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP51N+o=.jpgSwarmaholic20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Win a ranked match on each map in Swarm

 

In Swarm mode, only one player is required for a server to be ranked. Therefore, you can do this by yourself (with three bot teammates). The four base maps are required for this achievement. It can be done on any difficulty, refer to "Exterminator" for tips on each map.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP+Vz3k=.jpgCheetah10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Finish the obstacle course in the Answers level of the Campaign in under 53 seconds

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP20xsw=.jpgConquistador10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Win a complete game in Conquest

 

In Conquest mode, each team battles for control of control points. If your team "Owns" more control points than the opposing team, your team score will go up quicker. You also earn points for your team by killing other players and successfully completing dynamic combat missions. Whichever team reaches the set amount of victory points first (usually 1000), wins.

 

This can be done locally or online.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPxUPl8=.jpgLoud Cartographer20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Win a ranked match in each map group in Conquest

 

Each map has a variation, for Zephyr there is also "Zephyr West, Zephyr East" etc. You only need to win on one of these for it to count towards this achievement. So, if you win on Zephyr East, you can cross Zephyr off your list. The other three maps required for this achievement are Whiteout, Eden and Prometheus.

 

Note: Ranked matches require at least 3 human players. Refer to "Conquistador" for more information on Conquest mode.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPn21aY=.jpgFace Melter10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy with the Siphon Tool

 

Choose the siphon tool in your loadout and start up a match in any mode. Shoot an enemy until their shield is depleted, then use your siphon tool on them. You need to be relatively close to them for it to work. If you are close, you will see a purple beam extending from your arm to the enemy. It will steal the enemies health and give it to you. If you kill the enemy in this manor, you unlock this achievement.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPgWLTU=.jpgFalling with Style20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy by dropping on them

 

You must literally land on the head of an opponent when dropping in. If you land near them and they die, it won't count. If playing offline, start a match with as many bots as possible and when choosing where to drop in, look for red arrows on the map. You will need a lot of luck to get this against bots, as they tend to move when a lot. Be aware of AA zones (designated by large red circles on the map) as you will die if you try to land inside of them.

 

I would recommend instead to boost this with a friend. Have them stand still and try to drop on them. As you're falling, you can hit the brakes once the bar gets into the red. You will be able to steer a little and still have enough velocity to kill the person you are landing on. If you miss, keep trying. You'll get it eventually.

Kill 3 enemies in a row with the Machine Gun without reloading

This is an extremely simple achievement, however, you will not have access to the Machine Gun at the beginning of the Campaign. If you want to get the achievement quickly, either play in Swarm mode or (offline) Conquest mode. Set the difficulty to "Trivial" and kill 3 enemies without reloading. The Machine Gun has a large magazine, so this should be very easy.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPjwyB0=.jpgSpice of Life15 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy with each weapon type

There are seven weapons in the game, they are as follows:

Machine Gun

Assault Rifle

Pistol

Sniper Rifle

Shotgun

Missile Launcher

Pulse Cannon

All you need to do is get a kill with each of them. You can play Swarm mode if you're looking to get it done quickly. Each time you get a kill with the two weapons in your loadout, find a supply depot and change them. Keep going through them until you have a kill with all seven weapons.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPkQMI4=.jpgThe Old One-Two Punch10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy with any weapon after hitting them with a Grenade

Nice and easy. Make sure you have a grenade in your loadout, find an enemy, throw the grenade and wait for it to explode. If it deals damage to the enemy, fire upon them. When they die, you'll unlock this achievement.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPqu3U8=.jpgCan I Take Your Pulse?15 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill 20 enemies with the Pulse Cannon

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPiP1Po=.jpgClose-Quarters Specialist15 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Get 20 Defenses or Denials with the Shotgun

Choose the shotgun in your loadout and start a Swarm match. Stand right next to the control point and shoot anyone who gets near it. This will give you a defense bonus. If they start hacking your point and you kill them, this will give you a denial. Get 20 defenses or denials to unlock this achievement.

 

Note: This can be done in any mode with control points.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPlvLGk=.jpgThat's Assault, Brotha20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill 5 enemies in a game with the Assault Rifle from over 100m away

If you hover your crosshair over an enemy for a couple of seconds, you will scan them. You will then be able to see how far away they are from you. Make sure you have the assualt rifle and start either a Conquest match or Swarm match. Scan enemies and kill them with the assault rifle if they are more than 100m away. Use lock-on if you're having trouble hitting them from such distance.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPzNx5A=.jpgDemolition Man15 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Destroy 32 Structures with the Missile Launcher

Each control point in Conquest mode generally has several structures surrounding it. Machines guns, Missile turrets, AA turrets etc. Shoot these with your missile launcher, once they've blown up, move on to the next control point and do the same thing. They will eventually repair themselves and thus be ready to be destroyed again. Keep doing this, once you reach 32 destroyed structures, achievement unlocked.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP0tPwM=.jpgMortardom15 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.pngDestroy 5 Vehicles with Mortars

Riot Mortars are the order of the day here. Make sure you have them equipped and when you see a vehicle, target it with your mortar. You will see a reticule form on the ground when using the mortar, this is how you know where you're targetting. Get the killing blow using mortars on five vehicles to unlock this achievement.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP8MNrY=.jpgKnife to Meet You10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Fatality an enemy with the Knife

At the beginning of level two in the Campaign, there is an enemy with his back turned to you. Walk up behind him and press F (?) to fatality him. A knife obviously needs to be equipped. Alternatively, you can get this in Swarm mode or Conquest mode. Choose the Serrated Knife in your load-out, walk/run up to an enemy and do the same as described above. Whether they are facing you or not is irrelevent.

Kill 20 enemies with headshots using the Sniper Rifle

 

As a sniper, you should always be aiming for the head. You will take down the enemy in one-to-two shots, depending on whether their shields are intact. There are several sections in the campaign which promote the use of the sniper rifle, so you can get many of the headshots in those sections. Alternatively, you can work on the headshots in any of the other modes. The bots are easy targets which means getting 20 headshots against them won't be a problem.

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP+m9mU=.jpgGarbage Day!20 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete a ranked match with the highest Combat score using only the Pistol (12 or more players)

 

No matter how good you are at the game, you are unlikely to get this legitimately. Therefore, I recommend finding someone to boost with. Don't panic over the "12 or more players" description. Bots count too! You and your friend should agree upon a part of the map to meet at, then whoever is going for the achievement kills the other person with their pistol. The person who died keeps dropping near the other person and dying, then repeating.

 

Note: A ranked match requires 3 human players. Also, if you use anything other than the pistol to inflict damage, the achievement is negated for the current match.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UP5GDvY=.jpgMoving Violation10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy by colliding with them using the Bike

 

Save enough money to call down a bike ($100). Once you are on the bike, line up an enemy, shoot them a little then use your boost and run over them. If you kill them, you unlock the achievement. If not, try again.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPvk5Q8=.jpgMillennium Club35 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.pngKill 1000 enemies

 

Kills count across all modes. If you're looking to get this done quickly, play a lot of Swarm mode. Try to make use of mechs, as their melee attack obliterates most enemies. Throw down some machine gun turrets for easy kills and just stick with it. It will come in time.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPoEHZw=.jpgDuck Hunt15 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill 10 enemies with the Deployable AA Turret

 

Best done with a friend, though possible with bots. If boosting, simply put down a AA turret ($40) then have your friend constantly drop in its zone. If attempting to do it with bots, you will need to be patient. Put down an AA turret each game and hope for the best. Play on trivial difficulty to increase your chances of getting kills.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPglFCk=.jpgBackseat Driver10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy with any secondary Vehicle seat

 

Either enter a teammates vehicle, or call down your own and swap seat, then kill an enemy. The tank is a moving fortress, so if one of those is in play, try to get inside of it. The mortar seat is probably your best bet, though anything other than the main gun will work.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1912/UPnF7Lo=.jpgI'm the Juggernaut...10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Kill an enemy by colliding with them while Overdriving

 

You will enter Overdrive after sprinting for a certain period of time. To kill an enemy while using Overdrive, you must collide with them when they are low on health. This can be done in any mode, though I would recommend a large scale Conquest match. Enter Overdrive and try to find someone who is already in a firefight, so that they don't see you coming.

Survive against the Elimination DCM

 

This can be done in either online or offline Conquest mode. DCM's (Dynamic Combat Missions) will be randomly triggered as you play. When the Elimination DCM is triggered, you will notice a targeting reticule appears over your triangle on the map. The enemy can see your location, regardless of whether you are in the range of a Sensor Array or not. This can make it difficult to stay alive. I suggest entering a large game (or playing against trivial bots) and remaining in a well fortified base (control point). If you have enough money to order a vehicle, it will make life easier for you.

 

Keep out of the action, stay alive for the 3(?) minutes and the achievement is yours.

As you kill enemies and complete objectives, you will earn money. Your current total is shown in the bottom left hand corner. In Swarm mode and Conquest mode, you are able to purchase vehicles and deployables by pressing E (?) and choosing a valid spot on the battlefield to place the aforementiond items (the item will turn green). Make sure that you do not try to place a deployable or vehicle within an enemy AA turrets range. You will see a warning appear if you attempt to do this. If you do not heed the warning, it will be destroyed. The price of each vehicle/deployable is as follows:

 

Supply Depot - $20

Sensor Array - $20

Minigun Turret - $40

Missile Turret - $40

AA Turret - $40

Badges

 

First things first, know that badges can only be obtained in ranked Conquest matches. This means that there needs to be at least 3 human players in the game. Second of all, you're going to want to abuse the less than stellar enemy AI to get a lot of these badges. I will explain how/why below. Last thing, each of these need to be done in a single round.

 

Combat:

Infantry assault – kill 3 target players in the Elimination DCM

 

When the Elimination DCM is activated, you will notice that all of your opponents appear on the map with a crosshair around their arrow. As they are eliminated, the crosshair will be removed. The goal of the Elimination DCM is to eliminate (or survive, depending on which team you are on) every member of the opposing team, however, for this badge you only need to kill 3.

 

If you have enough money, you should call down a mech or tank for easy kills. If instead you are on foot, the only option is to get into the thick of the action. Make good use of your equipment, throw grenades for example, then lock on with your gun and blast the enemy away.

 

Specialist – kill 8 players with equipment

 

Generally napalm grenades/mortars are the best choice of equipment to take into battle, however, for this badge I recommend the knife. Well, as long as the enemy team consists of mostly bots, I recommend it. With the knife, if you can get close to an enemy, you can fatality them, which is a one hit kill. This makes 8 kills with equipment very doable.

 

 

Marksman – kill 20 players with weapons

 

Do whatever you need to to make $100 (capture control points, kill enemies, get assists etc), then call down a mech. Use the melee ability on any bots that you see. This is a very easy way to accumulate kills and points.

 

Only kills with turrets will not count towards this badge. I think...

 

Anti-vehicular combat – destroy 3 vehicles

 

While this can be done legitimately, I highly suggest that you boost it with a friend. It can be a hassle to get in a proper match. If boosting it, your friend will need to save $300, then call down 3 vehicles (bikes preferably). You can destroy them even if no-one is inside of them, it still counts.

 

If you decide to do it properly, you're going to need luck on your side. The bots rarely call down vehicles until near the end of the match, so you'll be racing the clock. When inside of the vehicles (especially bikes) they are quite hard to hit. Actual players are even better at avoiding, so you are unlikely to get it against them either. Choose crash missiles and crash mortars for your loadout and try to find unoccupied vehicles if you can (it does tend to happen fairly often near the end of the match) and destroy them. Destroy 3 in one match to unlock the badge.

 

Vehicular combat – kill 8 players with vehicle weapons

 

This is actually one of the easier badges. You are going to want to save $100 for a mech, then, when it arrives hop in and start using your melee ability on bots. It only takes a couple of hits to kill them and since you have plenty of armour, you will essentially be unstoppable against them.

 

This can also be done with a tank or bike.

 

Point offense – get 6 offenses

 

To get an offense, you need to be within a certain radius of an enemy control point when you kill an enemy. The radius isn't very big, so your best bet is to stand beside the control point. You can get a lot of these naturally, by hacking a control point, then waiting for an enemy to come and try to defuse it. I would recommend the machine gun and some napalm grenades for your loadout.

 

Retaliation – get 4 avenges

 

To avenge a teammate, you must kill their killer within a small window of time. At an estimate, I would say 5 seconds. Simply stick close to your teammates (the blue arrows), back them up in firefights and the 4 avenges should come in no time.

 

Squad tactics – get 8 assisted kills with your squad mates

 

To get an assisted kill, you must do some damage to an opponent, then have a squadmate deliver the killing blow. Squads in Section 8: Prejudice consist of four players. On the map, they are signified by light blue arrows (instead of the standard dark blue). Always drop in on your teammates, instead of selecting your own place to drop. Follow them closely, shoot, but don't kill whoever they target and you will rack up the assists. Once you have 8, you will be awarded the badge.

 

Conquest:

Distinguished service – finish with one of the top 3 scores in a game of 12+ players

Don't be intimidated by this, the 12 + players includes bots. Enter a server that has bots enabled and allows more than 12 players, then get down to business. Capture points, get kills, assists, repairs etc to increase your score. Once you have $100, call down a mech and use the melee ability on your enemies. The fatality action awards the most points of any action in the game, so you can abuse this to make your way into the top 3.

Enduring service – complete a game (must play at least 50% of game)

 

Pretty self explanatory. Enter a game that is just starting, or has only been going for a little while and remain in the game until it ends (either team reaches 1000 victory points).

 

Honorable service – finish game with highest teamwork score on your team

 

There are several ways to increase your teamwork score. Obviously these revolve around helping your team, so with that in mind, repair, assist, capture control points and complete DCMs to put yourself in good stead for this badge. .

 

Battlefield victory – win a game with your team

 

To win a game of Conquest, your team needs to reach 1000 victory points before the opposing team does. The simplest way to increase your victory point total, is to take over control points. However, DCMs are sometimes the deciding factor, especially when both teams own two control points each. Therefore, you should do your utmost to complete the DCMs for your team.

 

Conquest – capture 3 control points

 

To hack a control point, stand next to it and press F (?). It takes about 30 seconds to capture a control point from the time you hack it. In that time, you need to defend it from enemies who will try to defuse it. If you can, play with a friend and have them cover you while you hack the control points.

 

Objective support – assist in the capture of 2 control points

 

To assist in the capture of a control point, stand near it when it is being captured by one of your teammates.

 

Guardian – get 8 defenses or denials

 

A defense requires you to defend your control point from enemies. If they are within a certain radius of the control point and you kill them, you will be given a defense. A denial on the other hand, is awarded for killing an enemy who is literally in the process of hacking your control point. For either of them, you want to guarding your control point. Let the enemy come to you, then blast them away when they get there!

 

Sapper – hack 6 control points

 

You only need to hack, not capture! Go to an enemy controlled control point, press F (?) when standing next to the control point, then move onto the next one. If your hack is disarmed, you can go back and hack the control point again. It's easy to boost this way, if you have a friend playing with you. Hack, let them disarm it, then hack it. Repeat as needed.

 

Mission:

Jammer – recapture your lost sensor jammer and hold it in a successful DCM

 

When the Jammer mission is activated (and the Jammer begins under your control), allow the enemy team to capture it, then recapture it before the timer expires. Defend it, once the timer expires, you will get the badge.

 

Air assault – successfully call in an airstrike in a DCM

 

When the Air Assault mission is activated, you will see many icons appear on your map. There will be 2-3 airstrike points and one designating the beacon (?) which you need to grab and bring to one of the airstrike points. Ideally you want a friend covering you while you make a run for it. Choose a point which has the least amount of resistance surrounding it, take the beacon there and you'll get the badge.

 

Espionage – return the intelligence in a DCM

 

This is similar to the Air Assault mission, except there is only one place you can take the intelligence. Pick up the intelligence (it's a briefcase) and work with your team to get it back to where it belongs. You'll know where, as it appears on your map/radar.

 

Search and recovery – recover 2 pieces of wreckage in the Recovery DCM

 

Normally, there are about 9 pieces of wreckage to recover, so two shouldn't be a problem for you. Check your map, go to the two closest to you. When you get to them, hold F (?) until the bar reaches the end. When it does, you have recovered a piece of wreckage!

 

Interception – destroy the convoy in a DCM

 

The convoy is similar to the tank. It has two of the tanks weapons, and basically the same amount of armour. Keep your distance, use crash missiles and mortars. If there is no one else around when the convoy is being delivered, place a missile turret near where it will land. This will help a lot. You must deliver the final blow before the convoy reaches its destination, to be awarded this badge.

 

Using a tank is also a good idea.

 

Special ops – kill the infiltrator in a DCM

 

One of the opposing team members will collect (and put on the Inflitrator suit) when this mission is activated. The Infiltrator suit provides greater health/armour and limits the player to the assault rifle and missile launcher. The Infiltrator will appear as a sort of helmet on your map. Find him, then give him everything you've got. A mech is very useful for this DCM, as your melee attack will avoid the Infiltrators shield. When you kill him, you get the badge.

 

Outpost raze – destroy the outpost in a DCM

 

The outpost is basically a large, stationary supply depot with an AA gun on top. Follow the same advise outlined for the convoy badge and you'll have the badge in no time.

 

Assassination – kill the VIP in a DCM

 

The VIP is a stronger version of the opponents you're used to. He has more armour and health, so, if possible I would advise you to take him on whilst in a vehicle (such as the mech, or tank) or to work together with your team. If working with your team, be aware that you need to deliver the killing blow to be awarded the badge.

 

The VIP appears as a shield on the map.

Tactics:

Demolitionist – destroy 6 supply depots, sensor arrays or AA turrets

 

Choose the missile launcher and mortar for your loadout. Go to enemy control points and you will usually find a sensor array, a supply depot and an AA turret. Destroy them, then move onto the next control point. If you have destroyed all of the turrets (around the control point), you can wait a little and they will regenerate.

 

Circumvent defenses – destroy 8 minigun or missile turrets

 

Choose the missile launcher and mortar for your loadout. Go to enemy control points and you will usually find 2-3 minigun/missile turrets scattered around. Once you've destroyed them, move onto the next enemy control point and do the same. Each control point has turrets that regenerate, so if you have destroyed all of them, wait a little while and they will come back.

 

Security automation – kill 4 players with turrets

 

You want to place machine gun turrets or missile turrets somewhere where they have a direct line of sight to a control point. They should be relatively close to the control point too. Place one or two supply depots next to your turrets, so that they can help by repairing them. Enemy bots will focus totally on the control point in most cases and ignore the turret shooting them.

 

Intelligence network – deploy 3 sensor arrays

 

Sensor Arrays cost $20, so you'll need to earn $60 total to call down 3 of them. Sensor arrays sense an enemies movement (within a certain radius) and highlight the enemy on your radar.

 

Supplier – deploy 4 supply depots

 

Supply Depots cost $20, so you'll need to earn $80 total to call down 4 of them. Supply depots heal and give ammo when you are next to them, so they come in quite handy.

 

Engineered defense – supply 4 turrets

 

Call down a supply depot next to a turret (it can be a control points turret that is already there, or one of your own). Do this three more times and you will get this badge.

 

Repair automation – get 20 auto repairs

 

Do the same as in the "Engineered Defense" guide. The supply depots will heal the turrets if they get damaged (make sure they are close enough). If your supply depot is destroyed, deploy another to replace it.

 

Field medic – get 16 repairs

 

You need the repair tool in your loadout. When you see a wrench icon on your radar/map, go towards it and repair whatever the icon is over (it could be a player, or a turret). You get one repair for repairing about a quarter of the turrets/players health. Just constantly run around to each wrench icon you see and repair. There is a cooldown on the repair tool, but it doesn't last that long.
