How to unlock the Go the Distance achievement in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War - Definitive Guide

In order to check how many wins you have, go to Barracks, then go down to Combat Record. Hovering over the Multiplayer tab, it will show how many wins you have (You must be level 10 to see this). To long time players of Call of Duty, or even most online shooters, this guide won't teach you very much. However, instead of telling you to "just play the game, it will unlock naturally", I will point out many things that both newcomers and experienced players can learn from to potentially speed up the process.
Game Modes: Your best bet for game modes if you are less experienced or just want to play the objective is either Hardpoint or Domination. I will outline strategies for both of these modes, as well as Free For All, which I only recommend for experienced players. However, Free for All does not require you to rely on teammates so do not feel discouraged from playing that mode.
Domination: Make sure you do not hold all 3 zones unless you are either losing by a significant amount or if you already are about to win. Spawns may flip which can lead to your whole team dying and allow the other team to easily grab 2 zones. Always have your spawn point (either A or C) and B.
Hardpoint: Self explanatory, hold the point and defend it. Unlike previous entries, the next hardpoint will show up with 10 seconds left on the current one. Make sure to head over to the point so that you can hold it before enemies get over. A lot of the time you can score easy points without any effort if you make sure to get to the point. When a team is on the point, the match timer will pause. Any time that neither team is on the point will make the match timer to resume, so if the time is almost up and your team is winning with a good amount away from 250 points, let the time run out.
Free For All: This is the mode that I recommend the least, however if you are good then matches can be short since you need 30 kills to win. You are best off sticking with the other 2 modes above, but I know some do not like putting up with teammates.
Scorestreaks: In this game, scorestreaks persist through death, but cost much more. I could not find myself scoring enough for the higher streaks, which makes the Care Package more valuable in this games than others in my opinion. Spy Plane, Care Package, and Cruise Missile are what I personally use, but if you don't like the Care Package, you could swap it out for Artillery. The reason I point scorestreaks out is so that you can clear objectives of players in order to either protect an objective or to be able to take over an objective.
Create-A-Class: When playing the objective, what you use to kill people generally doesn't matter as much, however SMGs dominate for the most part. I personally used the MP5 and the AK-74u, and although attachments are not required, you may want attachments that give you more ammo (extended mags) and recoil control (Foregrips). There is a lot of specific statistics that are shown aside from the bars on the bottom going up and down on the bottom of the screen, allowing you to really create your loadout to more suit your style more than before.

The most useful perks are Ghost, Ninja and Flak Jacket. None of the others are particularly useful except maybe Forward Intel. I suggest playing as one of the default classes until you unlock Ghost and Ninja on custom classes. Those are essential. Without Ninja your footsteps make you sound like an elephant stomping around the map. Everyone has headsets now so enemies will hear you from a mile away. Ghost makes you invisible to spy planes whole moving. With spy planes being up for almost the entire duration of most matches, this is also essential. Flak Jacket is important for not being one shotted by grenades.

Regarding scorestreaks, I would recommend sentry turret, care package and rc-xd. I prefer not to use spy plane as usually everyone else on the team is running it and it doesn't directly kill enemies, unlike the other scorestreaks.

Just popped this yesterday and I SUCK at Multiplayer so thought I'd offer some tips. It does not have to be in one mode; I actually played Prop Hunt more than anything because you don't have to actually be that good to get wins there as long as you have a good team. I also quit out of a ton of games and joined plenty of games in progress (wasn't sure of those would count but they do) so don't be afraid to quit if you're only going for wins and don't care about anything else.

2024 - got this on my 50th win. Combination of nuketown 24/7 and infected highly recommend playing infected as your likeliness of winning is 90% higher than regular matches.

Playing the Infected mode is the fastest way to unlock this achievement. At the beginning of each game, when someone gets infected, throw a grenade at your feet and upon respawning, you will also be infected. The infected team wins 99% of the time and the games are very short.

I can confirm that this works!!!
I was skeptical because the counter under Barracks >> Combat Record >> MP >> Game Modes did NOT count the wins. But after getting 46 wins on the counter and 4 Infected wins, the achievement unlocked.

Yeah, Infection works great, if the infected win, literally everyone in the match wins, even if you're the last person alive to be infected when the match ends. lol. The only way to lose is if humans win, and you aren't human.

Plus matches can only last maybe 5 minutes or so max, much shorter depending on if the infected win fast or not.

You can view your statistics in "Barracks" -> "Service Record" (opens at level 10)

A good option is the infection mode, it's fast and mostly the infected win.

It seemed to me that it is most convenient to win in the 3x3 “face to face” mode; the matches are short and the probability of winning is high.

In my opinion, the knife mode is better, fun, fast and does not require skill
