Hi

Here is my Videoguide. for this Achievement. The Video shows both Sides (US - RU) and the Path from both Spawns to the Pool.

Question? Ask me in the Comments

just to add when I played this it was outside the map so you literally have 10 seconds to run there

FYI, the game spawned me right next to the pool, so I jumped in and was awarded the achievement. IIRC this was a game of conquest.

Below is a video showing you the location of the swimming pool on the Gulf of Oman map on Conquest.

You might be playing Conquest Assault. It has to be normal Conquest.

Oh I noticed how there are two different conquests can be a bit confusing, got it I had fun finding it.

It said out of bounds for me every game I joined, so i just went over and jumped in. Suicide and the achievement.

I think you may have to cross the sloped floor in/out of the pool for it to unlock. Can anyone confirm?

So... I was able to earn this by spawning in as Recon and flying an MAV into the pool. Since you can get it to pop by flying an MAV, this means that you can get it during a Conquest match; normally you have to do this in Rush, since the pool is outside of the playable space in Conquest. Your MAV will be leaving the battlefield but 10 seconds is enough time to fly your MAV into the pool if you start from near the edge of the playable map.

It might be possible to do this with an EOD bot too; would be cool to see someone try.

it seems that according to BF3, Robots Are People Too!

You can get the swimming pool location from any of the other guides.

Here is a video guide from otisdis, note the location of the pool on his mini map. Jump in, swim across and then wait a few for the trophy to pop.

If it doesn't pop, you're gonna need a bigger boat!

Play the Gulf of Oman and you'll see a tall building; if coming from the American spawn point it's off in the distance to the right; if coming from the Russian side it's up the hill to the left. In front of the hotel is a pool... have a nice relaxing swim in the hot desert sun and try not to get shot in it.
