How to unlock the Out of the darkness achievement in Bodycount - Definitive Guide
This exploit has been previously found by J LEWIS 1 9 8 3 & a solution created by MajkelBlack,
but more detail was requested by XTimer 92 and this is what my solution will hopefully provide.
The exploit for Mine siege is tricky to do and it can leave your account/player that is going to stay alive vulnerable to falling from a hidden ledge or being shot at if not placed correctly.
If you go to the far right side of the sand bags which are close to were the starting spawn point is, drop down near a little bit of metal fencing and you can move yourself to the middle of the half sand bags but underneath on an invisible ledge on the cliff side:
If done correctly the AI start to congregate in the middle of the sand bag area, providing easier kills:
Care must be taken to ensure you are low enough that the AI do not come around the side of the sand bags and start shooting the "hidden" player, also the "hidden" player can be seen by the AI from a walkway that looks onto the invisible ledge so they may need to protect themselves or any AI that does hang around this area been disposed of quickly, I would also recommend crouching, please see below image for positioning reference:
You need to be careful because sometimes random bot or grenade can ruin everything. Go as low as you can, crouch and enjoy your coffee.
Big thanks to J LEWIS 1 9 8 3 who has found this place.
Hope this solution will help.
On all the sieges (except 'Militarized Compound'), my partner and I struggled until we found a good camping spot.
This is probably the hardest siege. A decent camping spot can be found on in the tool shed on the second floor catwalk at the rear of the area (attached to the back of it is a raised catwalk platform where a lot of guys will jump down). One partner covers the hallway from which most guys will come, the other will cover the raised platform as much as possible.
You will be doing some juggling to support each other until the Kaluga comes along, as you are stuck with SMGs until then. Make sure you collect intel for explosive bullets for heavies (on earlier waves) and adrenaline for survivability when your partner eats it (as they likely will on several occasions).
If you have to GTFO, jump over the railing running along the side of the shed (using adrenaline if necessary), and book it down the stairs opposite to the catwalk that runs under a good portion of the level (and where the Kaluga will eventually spawn). The AI takes some time to follow you, at which point your partner will have likely respawned and you can figure out what to do.
This will be frustrating, as there are many heavies on later waves (though the Kaluga shreds them), and the lack of good weapons on earlier waves makes it difficult (I just stuck with the MP7 until the Kaluga spawned). Got through on fifth try.
1st weapon unlock: Unsure (never went for it, but likely a crap close range weapon)
2nd weapon unlock: Vector SMG
3rd weapon unlock: Kaluga
This is a co-op mission; the Mine siege is the “Ore Mine” level. To get this trophy you will have to complete wave 20. During co-op missions a new gun becomes available every 5 rounds (a waypoint shows you where the guns are). These guns are always better than your starting weapons and these guns are critical for the success of the mission. Upgrading your guns cost a small amount of intel but it is always critical to pick up the round 10 and round 15 guns. Each level has different guns suited for the map and they are invaluable for the players to complete the 20 rounds. Below is the list of guns for this particular map.
-Round 5: Super90 - shotgun
-Round 10: Kriss - SMG
-Round 15: Kaluka - advanced Target assault rifle (best gun in the game)
Strategy: This map is huge and surprisingly easy. At the very bottom of the map overlooking a cliff is a tunnel. This tunnel only has two openings, a very low roof, and a few dumpsters for cover. The roof is so low enemies can’t throw grenades into them. Each player simply defends their end of the tunnel. If one player dies he needs to let the other player know so he can watch his back.
The size of the map and the location of the tunnel mean neither side should be too over burdened with enemies. Both players can kill the enemies they see spawn on cliffs in front of them. With the map being so large it takes a while for the enemies who don’t spawn on the lower section to get to the tunnel. This gives you valuable breathing time.
The only special enemy on this map is the suicide bomber. Take them out from a distance; if they get close they are the priority. Remember when the “Heavies” approach to press on the d-pad to activate your “explosive ammo” to make quick work of them.
