Introduction
Conflict: Denied Ops is the latest installment of the highly addictive past generation series of games with the same name. This time around you will be fighting your enemies with only a 2 man team and also in first person. The achievements in this game are relatively straight forward but can be a pain to unlock for some of the level specific achievements. There are also online achievements that are primarily to win under certain conditions. Considering the lack of players online for this game, you may want to find a boosting partner for the online achievements.

Step 1: Campaign in Co-op and normal difficulty
Your first step should be to start the campaign and complete it entirely in Co-op and at normal difficulty. There isn't too much of a difference between normal and easy, so starting on normal will gain you Campaign Completed(easy) and Campaign Completed(Normal) as the difficulty achievements stack. After you have completed step 1 by finishing the campaign on normal with a Co-op partner, you will have unlocked at least 170. While going through this step you should try to get as many of the level specific achievements as possible to get them out of the way.

Step 2: Campaign on Extreme difficulty
After your first playthrough you should start the campaign again, but this time on extreme difficulty. you can only unlock this difficulty after completing the campaign at least once. This time around you may struggle, but you can still have a Co-op partner if you feel it would make the game easier. The final 2 difficulty related achievements also stack, so completing the campaign on extreme will gain you Campaign Completed(Extreme) as well as Campaign Completed(Hard) for a further 250.

Step 3: cleaning up
After you have completed all of the Co-op and difficulty related achievements, you should start cleaning up all of the achievements that are level specific or that are for a certain degree of performance within a level. You can attempt these as you are going through your original playthroughs, but any that you miss can be attempted again through level select.

Step 4: Online
Your final step will be to play online for the achievements. These are skill based achievements as apposed to grinding achievements so you should find a boosting partner or group and help each other out to obtain these. The online community of this game is also very under-populated so you may struggle to find a game on your own.

Conclusion:
So difficulty wise, this is hardly a quick and easy game, but it also isn't too hard and can be completed by the casual gamer as well as the hardcore. The main problem you will encounter is finding people to play with online, due to the age of the game and the lack of online community that still plays it, but, with perseverance and a bit of luck and you should find the people you need to boost it with.

  • Complete campaign mode with any combination of single player and co-op on Extreme difficulty.

    (1)   
    Just like it says, complete the 10 chapters of the game's campaign on extreme difficulty, this can be done with any combination between single player and co-op. To actually unlock the extreme difficulty you have to play through the game atleast once first. The game does get frustrating now, so keep your cool, be patient when picking off the enemies and try no to rush the level.

    Side Note: These achievements should actually stack up, so completing the game on the hardest difficulty should also unlock the achievements for the lower difficulties.

    The 10 missions to be completed are 'Santa Cecillia Monastery', 'Sveta Ostrov Whaling Station', 'Kyrkalov Submarine Station', 'Kolyma Castle', 'Metuwe Township', 'ATAK Diamond Mine', 'Chemical Tanker', 'Salem Union Sawmill', Petro Naviera Refinery' and 'Military Command Base'.

    You can see which missions you need to complete by clicking on 'Awards' at the main menu then 'Statistics' and the pressing twice. A list should then come up with coloured stars next to each mission to verify which mission has been completed and on what difficulty.
  • Complete any campaign or co-op mission with at least 50 kills and 30% accuracy using Lang.

    (1)  
    To obtain this you must complete any mission with atleast 50 kills and 30% accuracy using Lang, this can be unlocked on single player or co-op. This is best done on easy as you'll have more time to aim at the enemies without going into MIA when shot in quick succession, just take your time and line up your shots before pulling the trigger, it could be best to mentally count how many enemies you've killed so you know how many you've exactly killed. You are able to go into MIA on your way to getting this achievement.
  • Complete any mission with at least 50 kills and 40% accuracy using Graves.

      
    To obtain this you must complete any mission with atleast 50 kills and 30% accuracy using Lang, this can be unlocked on single player or co-op. This is best done on easy as you'll have more time to aim at the enemies without going into MIA when shot in quick succession, just take your time and line up your shots before pulling the trigger, it could be best to mentally count how many enemies you've killed so you know how many you've exactly killed. You are able to go into MIA on your way to getting this achievement.
  • Complete any Campaign or Co-op mission without going MIA (no loads or checkpoint resumes allowed).

      
    Just complete any mission in single player or co-op mission without going MIA, you are not allowed to reload checkpoints or the achievement will not unlock, if your not the best player at the game it might be best of to play a mission on easy, the first mission will probably be the best to complete this.
  • Score 50 kills in a row without going MIA.

    (1)  
    Simply get 50 kills without going MIA, again it's probably best to do this on easy, just be careful going around corners and use the lean feature for the corners and always watch your back as i've been killed many times from a sly enemy running up behind and melee'ing me, this can be obtained on any level really but the first few levels are most probably the easiest.
  • Achieve 10 grenade kills in one mission.

      
    Achieve 10 grenade kills in one mission during single player or co-op, the grenade launcher attachment on Lang's gun also counts towards these grenade kills. The best time to throw the grenades is when your in tight corridors with quite a few number of enemies present, make sure you reload your ammo when you see ammo boxes so your never low on grenades, the best level to probably get this on is 'Chemical Tanker' due to the narrow corridors throughout the level.
  • Achieve 10 melee kills in one single player or co-op mission.

      
    Achieve 10 melee kills in one single player or co-op mission. This can be tricky at times even though it seems simple. A few times when I've run upto an enemy to melee him he's melee'd me back and sent me into MIA, so the best way i've found to do this is shoot the enemy first so the enemy starts to hunch down in pain and then whack him quick before he recovers from the gun shots, the best level for this is most probably the first level as there's not loads of enemies running at you at any one time.
  • Destroy 45 objects in 60 seconds.

      
    This can take a few tries to accomplish this but one of the best areas i've found to do this is right near the end of the 'ATAK Diamond Mine' mission, in the area where you have to plant the C4 charges, to proceed to the LZ. Just take out all the enemies around this area and try not to blow up the explosives, once every enemy is dead, start shooting all the explosive barrels and containers and this should unlock.
  • Destroy at least 75% of destroyable objects in a mission.

      
    To unlock this achievement you must destroy at least 75% of destroyable objects in a mission, just simply go around the level shooting boxes, flammable containers and bottles, just simply rampage throughout the whole level. The first level seems to be the smallest of the ten available so that would be the best level to complete to get the achievement.
  • Make 10 indirect kills in a mission by shooting explosive objects such as barrels or gas cylinders.

      
    So for this you just have to wait for enemies to run or stop near explosive barrels and shoot at the barrels before they run off, i think the best level to do this is probably 'ATAK Diamond Mine' as there is plenty of barrels thought this level aswell as a fair few explosive barrels right at the end of the level during the ambush. 10 kills shouldn't be a problem to receive on this level.
  • Ensure BMP survives until the end of Monastery.

      
    Right near the end of the first level you'll come across a tank, as soon as you get into it drive forward and blow the blockage out of the way, shoot at the enemies and a couple of turrets that are firing at you. Proceed further and you'll see your teams chopper shooting at an enemy chopper, shortly after there will be a tank blow that up before it has a chance to shoot you. Carry on until your come to a corner go around and then exit the tank to take care of an enemy with a RPG, after that jump back in and proceed forward keep edging forward whilst peaking around the corner to get a shot at another tank but it sees you. After that there should be not more threat so just carry on the level on foot, the achievement will pop up at the end of the level.
  • Ensure Private Yelkin survives in Whaling Station.

      
    Right at the end of the level, you'll come across this fella, could be a bit tricky on hard difficulty so the best option could be to do it on easy as you'll have a vehicle with a turret attached to it aswell as a chopper that shoots at you and several enemies getting in the way, just do everything you can to save him, also be careful when it says 'press to talk' as i did and accidentally meele'd him and he died.
  • Commandeer hovercraft and ensure it survives to perimeter wall in Submarine Facility.

      
    Quite early on in this level after killing off all the enemies in the opening area you'll get told to take a hovercraft, so proceed forward with it and shoot all the enemies that are down the hill as well as a couple on top of the mountains and proceed forward. Exit the vehicle and take out a enemy with a turret by firing a well placed RPG shot, you could just leave the vehicle behind the wall and carry on on foot and the achievement will still unlock.
  • Destroy Jump-Jet in Submarine Facility.

      
    You get the opportunity to blow the jet up right at the end of this level in the area where the level actually started, it is slight tricky if you have no RPG ammo. There's 3 ways to take it down, if you have RPG ammo then it's will take a couple of well place shots to bring it down, you could use the hovercrafts turret to bring it down but i usually got killed or the hovercraft blew up the last option is the longest but using your standard guns it will eventually take it down. Could be best done on co-op as two guns are better than one.
  • Ensure Dr. Pessich survives until end of Castle.

      
    During the mid way point (sort of) after walking across a short outside balcony you'll enter a big cave and see this doctor on a computer, get your team mate to defend him. Now there will be 4 doors that open one after each other so get your grenade's and grenade launcher attachment ready and take the enemies out as quick as possible so you don't suddenly become surrounded. After this the doctor will follow you and stay around corners until you've killed all the enemies in that section, it should be pretty straight forward from now on to keep him alive.
  • Escape from police compound without going MIA in Township.

      
    This one is pretty easy actually and it unlocks pretty much near the beginning of the level. Start the level as normal and work you way through killing the enemies and you'll soon enter a building with a few cells and there's usually one enemy stood in there so kill him and carry on moving forward, about 10 seconds after i left the building the achievement popped up for me.
  • Save RPF troops in town square in Township.

      
    As you play through the mission like normal about half way through after entering a few buildings you'll soon come to open area with a few RPF troops in the middle with enemies located all around the surrounding area, just take out out all the enemies that are in the open and the one's that are in the buildings and this achievement will pretty much unlock straight away.
  • Rescue Bishop Three in Township.

      
    Rescuing Bishop comes right at the end of the level so after going through the the level like normal you will find yourself a tank, drive it out into the open area and shoot the enemies around there, at this points two tanks come out, take them both out before either one can do any damage to you. Exit the tank and head over to the structure in the middle of the map and you'll spot Bishop, simply kill all the enemies that ambush you and after a while you'll get some of your men in choppers and tanks showing up and clearing the remaining enemies out for you, the achievement should pop up and the level is complete.
  • Listen in on 4 guard conversations in Diamond Mine without being detected.

      
    To listen to the first conversation, as soon as the mission starts give your man the order to stay in that position so he doesn't get in the way and then run down and hide to the side of the big construction vehicle to listen to the conversation. Then wait for Atongwe and his followers to walk away and walk up the stairs as soon as there out of sight ignore the guards and run across and follow them, as they proceeded to walk through the building and walked down the small steps, stay at the doorway and listen out for the second conversation.

    As they start walking away, slowly follow them to the other side of the compound and hide behind the blueish vehicle to the right hand side, you should hear the third conversation. Watch Atongwe and his followers walk inside the building and wait the the guard near the door to walk away, swiftly move into the building so the guard doesn't notice you. Wait for them to walk up the stairs and slowly follow them, as the door closes at the top wait a few seconds and then walk towards the door and just peak around the corner to listen to the fourth conversation, as Atongwe walks away the achievement should unlock.
  • Track Atongwe in Diamond Mine without being detected.

      
    This could be pretty tricky for some and could take a few goes but you should do it eventually. You could also try and go for the 'Your Cousin Dances Naked...' achievement while your doing this. As soon as the mission starts watch Atongwe movement and after a minute or so he should start moving towards the stairs in the far left position from your starting point. After he's entered the cabin with his followers, quickly move towards the cabin and make sure no guard sees you, carry on to the other side and follow him across the compound again with out alerting the guards, enter the building shorty after him and follow him up the stairs slowly, after a conversation with two other people he should go into a room to the left with one other person leaving one person standing out side, kill him with the sniper rifle and then proceed to the door and move inside, kill the guard in here and wait for Atongwe to finish his business on the laptop and the achievement should pop up.
  • Ensure FSB Agents survive until the end of Castle.

      
    During the midway point in the castle level you'll be inside a cave, after killing of the enemies around the area walk down the slope and across from a sort of small building there's a couple of cells with some FSB agents in, there should be a button to press close by that will open the cells enabling the agents to come out. The agents now follow you and participate in shootouts, though there not the best of shots they can be pretty handy just make sure you kill the enemies first before they have a chance to aim at the agents.
  • Ensure hostages survive on Tanker.

      
    On the mission 'Chemical Tanker', near the start of the mission you will see four hostages surrounded by three guards, you must kill the three guards and protect the four hostages. when you've killed the three guards the hostages will run away to a safe place on the ship, when you follow them there should be the four hostages that you've saved, shorty after this the achievement should unlock.
  • Track down and kill Kwennoir in Sawmill.

      
    This one is a bit tricky and could take you quite a few tries to achieve as you are unable to set of any alarms off. So go around the level sneaking and taking opt shots at enemies, there are several alarm systems, about 4 before the bomb and there is one AI next to each one somewhere. Make sure to sneak and take them out first. When coming across the hostage leave him there for the time being as when you untie him he runs to the window and sets all the alarms off. Once your in the building with the bomb you'll locate Kwennoir downstairs next to it. From the stairs you could lob in a few grenades or use the grenade launcher on your gun to fire into the corner room where the bomb is a well placed shot should kill him.
  • Rescue Foley in Sawmill.

      
    Starting the level as normal move forward until you come to the huge open area with all the cut down trees, carry on through this area killing the enemies and you'll soon enter a building just around the corner you'll see Foley on the ground move upto him and untie him, Foley now has to survive right to the end of the mission for the achievement to unlock.
  • Ensure all Delta Force members survive until the end of Oil Refinery.

      
    During the oil refinery mission along the way you'll come across a number of delta force members, now although these people are pretty helpful and can take out a few enemies, they can sometimes be stupid and just stand in the open and get shot and just die, so you'll have to help them alot and make sure you take the enemies out before they can line a shot up, probably best done on easy as the enemies accuracy wont be as great and the delta force members wont die as quick, just simply escort them throughout the level and watch out for machine gunners.
  • Prevent gas from being released in Military Base.

      
    To prevent the gas from being released you must first go through about 3/4 of the 'Military Base' level. The room is real close to a checkpoint so if they do release the gas, you can die and start over.

    You know you are in the room when, if you do not succeed in stopping them, a green gaseous substance starts flowing from vents in the ground. Once you are in the room, there is a ramp to the right and you go up it and then have to kill everybody that tries to make a run for the console to flip the switch to activate the gas.
  • Complete any mission in Co-op.

      
    Simply complete any one mission of the ten available in co-op, this is probably best done on the first mission on easy as there are no checkpoints during co-op play, can get a bit frustrating at times if you keep dying but keep your cool and take the level your playing slowly. If your going through the co-op campaign as normal this will unlock by itself anyway.
  • Complete a full campaign in Co-op.

      
    This sounds pretty easy but as there are no checkpoints on co-op play it will get frustrating even playing on easy, there are 10 missions to complete, from the main menu select co-op campaign. At times you will be pulling your hair out and bursting blood vessels trying to complete this over and over again without dieing but just hang in there are take the levels slowly and always work as a team with you co-op partner.
  • Complete a Co-op mission without either player going MIA.

      
    Again not a easy thing to do, best of doing the first mission on easy and talking corners slowly and using the lean feature for extra protection, always watch your back for enemies running behind you and always work together don't go off in two different paths.
  • Finish first in a Deathmatch Ranked Match with 16 players.

    During a ranked deathmatch you must get 15 kills in a row, this can be achieved by camping using Lang's sniper or just simply running around using Grave's machine gun.

Try to get into the thick of the action and kill enemies that are concentrating on another opponent or enemies that are in mid battle with someone else so they don't spot you. Can be boosted see 'Healing Hands' for more information.
  • Score 15 consecutive kills for a single team in a Team Deathmatch Ranked Match (Any weapon).

  • Hold all 5 flags for at least 30 seconds in a Conquest Ranked match.

    During a ranked conquest game, try and hold all 5 flags throughout the level at the same time for 30 seconds, this can be pretty tricky and may take a few games to achieve, as soon as the 30 seconds is up the achievement should unlock straight away. Can be boosted see 'Healing Hands' for more information.
  • Score double the other team’s points in a Conquest Ranked match.

    During a play through a ranked conquest match, just make sure you and your team mates get as many kills as possible and try not to die to often, you should soon start to over power your opponents team score and atleast double their score. Can be boosted see 'Healing Hands' for more information.
  • Heal 10 team members in a Conquest Ranked match.

    Go to the multiplayer options from the main menu and set up a ranked conquest game and during play when you see your team mate in MIA just go over to him and press to heal your team mate. This has to be done 10 times in one match so it probably best if you put the time limit to the maximum so you get all the time you need to complete.

    Side Note: All those online achievement can be boosted pretty easily as the online part of this game is not really that active, just get a friend who has the game or head over to the Achievement Trading Thread and then get your partner to search for your game.
