How to unlock the Tombstone achievement in Battlefield 4 - Definitive Guide
Your teammates will kill some enemies but don’t rely on them to much as they will sometimes run right past an enemy or let enemies run behind them.
One thing you do have to watch out for are grenandes. It seems as if the enemies were all trained how to throw by Peyton Manning. They will throw a ton of grenades at you and they will always land right where you are standing no matter how far away you are or at what angle you’re at on hills.
If you attempt this first all of the other difficulty and completion achievements will pop once you beat all 7 missions.
You will have to complete this game on "Hard" difficulty to unlock this achievement. The game shouldn't cause you too many problems at all, but there are a few pointers that will make it a little easier if you are struggling:
- Choose the right weapon for the situation - Change your weapon to suit your needs when possible
- Use the tactical binos to scan areas once you enter them while will show all enemy locations
- Use to have your teammates engage enemies, and reveal them on your map also
- Stay close to cover at all times and be ready to hide when necessary
- Take your shots while crouched and stationary, and avoid enemy grenades
- If stuck, try a different approach to the situation
With these few tips, you should be able to beat the campaign without too much difficulty. The achievement will unlock as soon as you complete Mission 7: Suez, and should stack with the Easy and Normal difficulty achievement. If those do not unlock, complete the final level on those difficulties while going for the other endings.

This trophy is story-related and cannot be missed. Completing the single-player campaign on Hard difficulty will unlock this trophy. Hard difficulty is considered relatively easy by FPS standards. Use cover to your advantage and stay out of the enemy crosshairs as much as possible. You will probably be shot often, but if you retreat behind an obstruction (box, wall, etc.), your health will regenerate quickly.
I used the default SCAR-H assault rifle and M39 EMR, which is a sort of sniper rifle under the DMR class of weapons, for virtually the entire campaign. It may not be the best choice of weapons, but I found scoring headshots to be easy with the M39 EMR. Headshots are nice because they are one-hit-kills and add a 25-point bonus per kill, which helps to achieve assignment scores. Also, use gadget stashes to equip explosives, which come in handy against tanks and helicopters. RPGs are useful for taking out these strong vehicles from a distance.
The trophies stack, so completing the campaign on Hard will also unlock Fish and Wolf.
