How to unlock the Storm bringer achievement in Battlefield 4 - Definitive Guide
It is a subtile mix of "taking you're time for headshots and rushing at the same time". Because even if you don't use ENGAGE feature, your squad still rack some kills, not as fast, but they will. So you need to be fast and precise : headshot while rushing.
I used M39 EMR / FAMAS combo. When armed with FAMAS, still focus on headshot. Worst case, burst fire above the enemy head and aim down if you miss at first. This will prevent you to make a body kill by mistake.
I finished my run with 20,800 points. Here is the score breakdown to give a idea of that you are aiming for:
* 118 kills
* 1 Melee
* 73 Headshots = 61% of my kills
* 11 Multi kills
* 7 Adrenaline kills
* 19 Streaks kills
* 47 Squad kills = 28% of total kills ---> 47/(118+47)
To save time, evaluate if you need to restart the mission or checkpoint by keeping track of your score breakdown :
* You should keep your kills vs squad kills to a 4:1 ratio...if at some point you are at a 2:1 ratio...it is not going well. You need to push a bit more...get kills before your squad.
* Before the tank portion of the mission you should be around 80% head shots kills. The ratio will drop later because you will get around 20 kills using the tank. Keep it above 60% after the tank portion of the mission.
Personal tips:
* The tank portion of the mission was completed using the tank...not on foot...so it is feasible to achieve 20,000 points using the tank. I know some people suggest to use the RPG. I did try this method, the tank portion take you way more time to complete.
* When you are about to get a headshot and there is only one enemy is sight, try to reposition yourself in a way you can see and kill two enemy...racking a couple of streak kills.
* When you reach the hangar at the end, don't camp at the top trying to get headshots...the suppressing fire of the enemy will constantly throw your aim off. You will loose precious time and your squad will kill the enemy. Get on the main floor, rush and headshot as fast as you can.
Conclusion:
I know that some gamer reached more than 24,000 points optimizing the run. 20,800 is not a world record...but I did it pretty effortless using this method.

The squad seemed to steal alot of kills lol. My biggest tip is make sure you have 17,000+ when you enter the sewers
Firstly, difficulty makes no difference to your points tally as there is no multiplier, so its easier on easy difficulty.
Tips
*Headshots give a 25 point bonus
*Adrenaline kills give a 50 point bonus
*Multi-kills give a 100 point bonus
This is in addition to a normal kill (100 points) and a squad kill (50 points).
I also chose not to utlise the ENGAGE feature, as that racks up squad kills and halves your possible points for that section.
I would recomend using a steady AR/LMG, with your main gun being a sniper rifle.
Every kill you go for, aim for the head with a sniper rifle, and chain them together as fast as you can for bonuses.
If you see a group of enemies standing together, use the grenade. The multi-kill bonus is the biggest you will get.
If you are struggling, and you see a lone soldier, let him shoot you til your screen blurs. Then headshot him from close range, as you get a 75pt bonus (adrenaline + headshot).
If you reach a section where enemies appear and its a programmed route, restart checkpoint and utilise claymores for big points.
Dont be scared to restart the checkpoint if you don't do well.
Good luck !
Here are some general tips for this level:
- Play on easy!
- During the initial beach and road section you should be pushing ahead of your squad and the tank. They will steal your kills and lose you points
- I used the Scar H and Scout Elite weapons for the entire mission
- Aim for as many headshot and adrenaline kills as possible. On easy you should make the most of being a little harder to kill by landing adrenaline headshots for 175 points each.
- Multikills will really help to boost your score. Obvious ways to do this is aim for groups of enemies with a well placed grenade. A less obvious method is to throw a grenade at one enemy, then as the grenade explodes shoot another enemy.
As a reference here is how many points I had at various sections of the mission:
When you get into the tank - 8525 pts
When you get out of the tank at the restaurant (not the car park) - 16625 pts
When you get trapped by the car on the bridge - 18125
Total points at the end of the mission - 22925
Hope this helps

This is probably the hardest assignment in the game. Singapore is the only mission in which I failed to score the requisite points during my initial Hard playthrough. 20,000 points requires several multi-kills and they are difficult to pull off in this mission. I suggest alleviating yourself of a headache and not attempting to complete this assignment on your first Hard playthrough. Instead, try to kill 15 enemies with the RPG and unlock War turtle.
After completing the mission on Hard you can replay it on Easy, where the multi-kills will not be so problematic. Just employing the strategies from the previous missions should be more than enough to get you the points you need.
Please see Above and beyond the call for point-scoring tips.

Personally, I got 23175 points with the M416 - the most optimal weapon in the game. It’s quite comfortable to play both at long and short distances.
