*Nastyhotshots* Solo veteran Guide

First thing I would say about this mission is practice solo veteran and get used to the positions of the hostiles in the rooms you have to breach. On veteran coop there are more hostiles in both rooms and it requires a lot of work with your partner as to who is going to take out which hostiles as you dont have a lot of time before the explosives go off and the hostages are no more. So solo regular settings practice is the key to doing this tricky mission.

1. Switch your shotgun for the LMG and load it before breaching first room with hostages in.

2. Switch back to M4 and take out the three hostiles, after breaching, left to right. Take your time and get clear head shots to save them shooting the hostages.

3. Switch back to the LMG and go outside and aim the weapon through the gap in the fence. Throw all your grenades into the far corner before the games open. Then let rip with the LMG, full box of ammo. This should take care of the first wave. Quicly switch back to the M4 to take out any surviving hostiles. Blow the tanks with the NOOB tube as hostiles love hiding behind tanks. It also saves you from getting blown up by the tanks in the second wave.

4. I always switch the LMG for a good secondary weapon like the vector red dot. See what is lying around and get rid of the LMG, you dont need it anymore.

5. Stand behind the tanks and walk slowly to the front aiming upstairs. 4-5 hostiles will come down the stairs very fast so be prepared to shoot them and dont let them get downstairs if possible.

6. If you havent switched the LMG yet on the way upstairs on the back of the first landing is a PF2000 with thermo sight. Take that and use it on the next wave.

7. Once you are up on the main area stay back and dont go too far forward as you will activate another wave and helicopter. Take out the hostiles with the NOOB tube before activating the next wave.

8. Once hostiles have being supressed switch pf2000 for AT4 and activate the next wave by walking forward. You will see the ropes and hostiles once you reach the large pile of wood. Take cover and use the AT4 on the helicopter once it spots you. Just aim into the lights and go prone once u fire just incase u miss.

9. Once the helicopter is down you will get a large number of troops coming straight at you. So get into a defensive position and take them out 1 by 1. Always be aware of potential troops in the room to the right side of you. Watch your radar and pick them off when u see the red dots.

10. Once the area is supressed move forward to the containers on your far left. This will activate another wave so make sure your weapons are loaded. These troops are buggers for throwing grenades so watch out for grenades at all times.

11. Keep moving forward and stay undercover to take the hostiles out. Watch stair wells as they are always troops on the stairs.

12. Once you reach the final staircase switch your secondary weapon for the pf2000, if you dont already have one.

13. Now comes the tricky bit.

14. Go upstairs to activate the next way and leg it back down stairs and take a defensive position aiming at the top of the stairs. There will be at least 5 hostiles coming in quick succession so be ready.

15. Once u got rid of them go back up stairs and trow some grenades into the left side of the map.

16. Go back down stairs into defensive position and take out any enemies that comes to the top of the stairs.

17. Once you clear them go back upstairs and watch oput for 3 troops that come from the right side of the map.

18. Run into the far cornewr and crouch using PF2000 to take out all the hostiles you can see.

19. Go around the pipe and crouch fast as there are at least 4 hostiles in front of you through the smoke.

20. Once you have taken them out move fast towards the hostage room.

21. Switch weapon for one of the small 9mm

22. Breach the door, the hostiles are always in the same position. First one is to your left shoot him in the head, next one is crouched and throwing a weapon to another hostile. Shoot him in the head. Next shoot the one who is catching the weapon. Finally there is one more to his right. You have time to shoot each one in the head so dont panic, just practice and you will get it.

Here is the easiest way I know of to get the 3 stars in the echo COD MW2 Spec Ops mission High Explosive.
Not the best way to do it but a guarentee way to get the veteran stars if u are struggling. I much prefer to use more of the map and use the red barrels to finish of more than 1 jugg. You can camp in the white wrecked truck in your spawn area but for ease of getting the stars try this method shown in my video.

Echo Special Ops Mission 3

Armor Piercing

Mission Objectives:

Kill all fifteen juggernauts on the oil rig. You can do this one of two ways. Either camp out and wait for them to come to you or push forward. Depending upon whether you want a fst time I suggest you do a bit of both and keep your distance whenever possible. The more juggs you kill the faster they come at you, so practice hard and you will get the three stars no bother.

Here is my solo veteran run on the echo spec ops mission Armour Piercing. Not too hard to do but can get high intensive and a bit tricky to do if u dont play both offensive and defensive.


1. Key to this mission is only run from a jugg attack if u really have too. Running can put you in a worse situation.

2. Keep your eye on your ammo, I finished this run on my last 5 .50 cal rounds. There are 3 ammo crates on this map so best use them when u can.

3. Choose the right location or locations for your defense. Make sure u have mines to alert u of hostiles. If u feel u are getting over run or are injured make sure u have somewhere to run for cover.

4. If u start to turn red very quickly whe u see a jugg, u are in his direct line of fire. Even if u crouch or go prone u are dead, move ASAP.

5. Scoping out to sea does occasionally force enemy spawn, so once u r ready to fight move about, scope the sea and make some noise.
