Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

play MEC on karkand.. and be a sniper... put claymores at the opening in the fence @ that first flag.. and in that 2nd little alley way on the left @ the first flag... you'll get it fast... thats how i got mine

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

Got in on Gulf of Oman - grabbed the fast attack vehicle and as US and kept running up the road towards the MEC base. Hit a few APC and tanks head on. If you do it right you don't even end up with suicides. For some reason I couldn't do it on Karkand (i think because I would quit because of all the suicides - I hate negative points). Usually I threw 3 packs on the vehicle and switch to detanotor in case there was no oncoming traffic I could find some isolated people. If you happen to give yourself enough clearance then you have two more packs to get them with.

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

was a pain in the butt - but luckily got my final 4 kills from one loaded apc.

i loaded a jeep or buggy with 2-3 packs of c4 and just drove into every piece of armor i could find - I tried jumping out and exploding when it ran into them - but I only lived a number of times. I was more accurate if I rode it all the way in and then hopped out, rather than letting it coast in - that would also give them time to back up.

Claymores on Karkand, that's how I got mine...

I'm having trouble with the Good conduct Medal and Ribbon... Sounds easy enough but I have done what the ribbon says to do but still haven't gotten it yet :|
· 250 Global Hours of Play Time
· 14 Kills in One Round
· No Team Kills in same round
· No Team Damage in same round

Medals tougher but you get some knucklehead to just brush up against you with a car in a tank or APC thats shot to hell too. Anyone gotten these?

· 4000 Global Hours Played in Total
· 27 Kills in 1 Round
· No Team Kills in same round
· No Team Damage in same round

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

Gotta respect the C4.

[Dark_Hors3]

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

Basic C4 badge is easy on any map with jeep ramming and/or driving jeep into a group of soldiers, hopping out, and clicking boom...

As for the silver C4 bagde, I could only get this on Karkard with a) doping the fence technique b) climbing up hill on left side and C4'ing snipers, ect c) when 1st flag is taken, planting C4 in allways and watching USA noobs run up allies and get blown to bits over and over

Lotta fun to get it! now looking at the Gold C4 badge... ugh! how I can get that many kills is beyond me unless I have a super lucky and long round.

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

I got my veteran explosives on songhua stalemate, PLA side. C4 to heli, "Position 6" and "Fire" programmed to joy... fly above BlackHawk and BOOM. Got 27 kills (after 3 full BH, they began to seek another way to capture flags) anyway it was fun too :)

hahah thats awesome.

I've only got just over 100 hours of play but I've done 14 or more kills without team kill/damage plenty of times. Sniping is the way to do that. No chance of team killing/damage as long as you don't put a claymore when you find a sniping spot (a dumb teammate always follows you to breathe up your ass and walks onto your red skull marked claymore), and make sure you don't shoot a teammate :P

As for the 4000 hours... I don't think anyone in the world has even racked up 1000 hours???

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

Karkand is the map, but i never found the jeep that effective.

Playing MEC, as soon as the map starts, rush to the front. Go to either the first hole in the tin fence (nearest the first flag) or, even better if you can make it, the very first fence closest to the US artillery. Just keep planting one C4 at a time. As guys come through, BAM. They'll eventually get you, but you'd be amazed how many kills you can get doing this.

Also, try to anticipate the next flag that's going to fall. If the first one falls, spawn at the high rise and C4 the whole area and climb to the top of the building. Or spawn at the suburbs and do the same thing. Wait until the flags neutralize then wait a few secons longer (guys always rush in to capture the flag) and BAM. I've gotten as many as 8 kills doing this. Then drop down and recapture. Hopefully a good commander can resupply you or you can capture another spec ops kit and repeat the whole thing.

If your team is pushed back to the other side of the river, always C4 the river crossing. You can get lots of kills doing this as guys tend to load up vehicles and try to rush it.

Good hunting.

good tips

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

karkland as a sniper as US. got it just the other day... spawned front left spawn and worked my way around to their first flag dropping claymore at choke points. I died alot but got it in the end.

Now this is the big one (sorry for those I tk'd along the way) I got my explosive badge after 20kills with claymores and I tk'd a lot! So I think for every tk you need to get more explosive kills because i hadn't even touched my rifle or any other weapon and it got to 15+ kills - so I was thinking "what the hell am I doing wrong!!" but I kept on going and at 20 kills it turned up...

just go hard and think about where your placing the claymores...

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

I usually play spec ops 70% of the time, and this was the last badge I got. I've killed quite a few with c4 in a round before, but never 13. I got mine on Mashtuur by planting c4 near the top of flag poles and getting fully loaded BH's. I think I wound up with 15 or 16 c4 kills in that round.

Question. How do you get them on the top?

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

ya too bad the C-4 in this game looks more like a satchel charge than a C-4 charge.

Re: How to get the damn explosives badge

I find this technique to work 90% of the time...
All flags have a rectangular block at the base of the pole. What you do is get as close to the flag as you can from the side where the length of the block is longest and look straight up. Pull out your C4 and align the left side of it to the right side of the pole, then jump. When you get to the peak of your jump, throw the C4. It should stick to the top of the flag
