DMZ in Modern Warfare 4 offers players plenty to sink their teeth into, including an array of Orders to tick off and earn rewards from.

These serve as an introduction to some of the core mechanics in the mode, and while the majority are basic, some can cause confusion, particularly the objective to secure Counterfeit Cash from North Korean soldiers.

If you’re stuck on this questline, we’ve got all the details to help you out.

In my experience, Counterfeit Cash only drops from North Korean soldiers in the Deadtown location of the map, and only occurs if the Order is active.

This is the area of the map where you are directed toward earlier in the Order, which informs you to gain control of a UAV Tower in the area, and to eliminate enemies marked by the UAV.

To ensure you meet all the requirements, the best approach is to make sure you keep the UAV active and eliminate any North Korean soldiers in the area, and it shouldn’t take long to secure the drop you need.

If you find there is a shortage of enemies, wait in the area until an enemy vehicle spawns, as DMZ regularly keeps AI enemies in flow to ensure there are no areas that go completely dead.

There is no use for the Counterfeit Cash dropped by the North Korean soldiers other than to progress through this objective, so you won’t need to ever worry about it again, and can instead focus on farming some of the other resources in the game.
