  • How to unlock Purple Heart

    For this achievement, you must die 20 times. You’ll probably get it while playing through the campaign on Veteran. If not, simply load up a level and get yourself killed by the enemy. Repeat this until the achievement unlocks.

  • I found that to get this achievement you have to die 10 times in any level: according to http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/call-of-duty-world-at-war-achievement-guide/529/ but I tried it and died ten times in one of the levels but it did not award me the achievement. Any suggestions?
  • i can't remember how many deaths it took me, but i did a level on veteran until i died enough to get it. i think it was closer to twenty deaths.
  • Do you have to die at the same checkpoint all the time or in a mission???
  • ^ thats how i got it. first checkpoint in semper fi on veteran.
  • This is my most shameful achievement.
  • lol ya im with #5. if you didnt get this achievement while playing thru the campaign, you definetly DIDNT do it on veteran. lmao, if you are going for veteran achv this will come naturally, as you will get raped every chckpoint. when i attained this one i assumed it was for losing the same checkpoint more than 20 times without giving up, haha
  • yea, #6 is right, you have to die and come back to the same checkpoint 20 times. easiest to do on the later levels on veteran.
  • This was an odd achievement.
  • gah i still dun have this acheive! i must be awesome! i play on Veteran and i die a few times per checkpoint
  • you have to be a monster if you're playing the game on veteran and dont get this =)
  • wierd
  • I got this on Hard Landing after the flamethrower part on Veteran
  • i 0nly d13d 6 t0 10 t1m35.
  • Wanted to get it before veteran to not look bad......20 molotov suicides
  • Does saving the game and going back to a checkpoint reset your deaths?
