Zen and the Art of Reloading

Gamer Score: 5

Perform 25 perfect active reloads. After performing a Perfect Active Reload in Versus mode, there is a short cooldown before it can be done again. A white bullet just to the right of the ammo counter notes when it is ready. During a reload, tap RB when the sliding white line matches up with the white mark inside the meter.

Now That’s a Knife!

Gamer Score: 5

Kill 10 enemies with combat knife after yanking or kicking. With an opponent crouched behind a short barrier, there are three ways to get a knife execution. 1. Crouching opposite the enemy, press when the Yank icon appears to pull him to your side. 2. In the same position just opposite a foe, mantle the wall to kick the player. 3. Running at cover where an opponent hides on the other side, perform a Vault Kick to knock him back. As long as you are not countered, quickly press the button to knife the stunned opponent.

Whoomp, There It Is!

Gamer Score: 5

Knife execute an enemy that was yanked over cover by another player. Allow a teammate to yank an enemy over a barrier. Instead of that player finishing the foe off, you perform the execution.

Drop the Beat…down

Gamer Score: 5

Get three Dropshot headshots. Drop an explosive from the Dropshot directly onto an enemy’s head. This requires very good aim and an opponent who decides not to dodge the attack. Find someone hiding behind cover for the best chance. Of course, there is also luck. Or just set the scene with a buddy.

Triple Play

Gamer Score: 5

Kill three enemies with a single Buzzkill shot. A buzzsaw flies through the air for a short while, slicing up any enemy that gets in the way. Line up three foes or shoot the blade into a crowded, confined space to get multiple kills. Finish off at least three enemies to get Triple Play.

Seriously 4.0

Gamer Score: 200

Insane Campaign, Horde all maps, all Ribbons, rank every playlist, max classes, Re-ups and five Skills. This is the ultimate Achievement, requiring you to master Campaign, Horde, and Versus modes.
