Call of Duty: Black Ops

- Campaign level 8, "Project Nova".

I just unlocked this achievement, and it was MUCH easier than I thought it would be! What a relief that was. It was way harder to actually plant the bomb in this level. So do not worry about getting this achievement, if you made it this far on Veteran difficulty, it will be peanuts!


IMPORTANT: Have TWO guns with fully loaded magazines ready!

Basically, when you have planted the bomb, you need to make a path. At the left side of the bomb there is a huge pipe. Wait for it to blink yellow as a sign of interaction, and shoot it. Run upstairs and exit the chamber.

When you are about to exit the chamber two guards are waiting for you outside, but you can see them as their guns show around the corner. Quickly shoot them with as less bullets as possible (just a burst) to preserve your bullets.

Yes -- this is Veteran difficulty. But you can actually do this: KEEP RUNNING AND STAY TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SHIP THE WHOLE TIME!
Ignore the enemies that are above you! For some reason, they will be more busy trying to get a good shooting position than actually shooting at you.
Read the comments to this solution to see how easy this was for other people as well!

Use bursts to take enemies down that cross your path, and when your gun is empty, DO NOT RELOAD. Instead, switch to your second gun and CONTINUE the sprint.

If you don't make it, pull out and hold a hand grenade to commit suicide and you can try it again. You will spawn back to the point right after you shot the huge pipe.



Good luck soldier!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

Geoff and Kerry from Achievement Hunter show you how to escape the ship with 2:15 left on the clock on veteran. If you are having problems with this simply watch the video and they will guide you through how to get through this part and where the enemies are that you have to kill.

Mission: "Project Nova"

It is not my video so i can't take credit for it but it shows you how to get the light foot achievement on veteran.

I got the intel first and than died on purpose....next run i got it ON THE SECOND :D

Edit: I got a checkpoint on the side of the ship with about 9 or 10 sec left. I made it just in time but it will be very close. So if you want to make sure you get this achievement, maybe you should leave the intel and just play the level another time on recruit, just to get the intel.

Check my video with voice over on how to get this achievement in HD.


give posatives and comment on how you found the video thx.

This achievement is on the mission: Project Nova.
When you kill the enemy after escaping the gas chambers there will be a timer before the bomb on the ship blows up.
Here is a video from Roosterteeth on how to get this achievement.
It helped me a lot and remember on veteran:
- Use cover at all times when there are multiple enemies
- Keep moving when you think you can
- Prepare for a lot of grenades from enemies
- and most of all be patient otherwise you'll give up.
Also you don't have to finish on 2:15, just on that time and anything under that.

Surprised more people haven't unlocked this one, fairly easy; the hardest part to this is just generally doing the mission on Veteran. This is on the Project Nova mission, right near the end, you'll know you're up to it when you're asked to plant some C4. Be sure that the room is completely clear before planting the C4, and as soon as you do you're gonna want to quickly aim to your left and shoot the support beam (helps if you've already played this mission on an easier difficulty so you know what to do). Soon as the platform drops, sprint up it and outside. There's gonna be two guys immediately to your left, but they're easy to kill if you're quick. Now as I recall, you don't have to kill anyone else in front of you, just sprint like a madman to the rope at the end. If you're unlucky enough to get killed on the way, you should respawn just after the two guys you killed with plenty of time to do it in.

Note: For anyone who thought otherwise, the mission does not have to be finished with exactly 2:15 on the timer (that would be very harsh). Long as it's on or under that time you're sorted.

Must be done on mission eight, "Project Nova."

The most difficult aspect of this achievement is simply getting to the end of the mission on veteran. My only advice is to be patient and use any projectiles to your advantage.

Once you reach the end sequence (before you plant the bomb), clear the room completely of enemies. Then, plant the bomb. You will be given 180 seconds to escape the ship, but this achievement requires you do it in 45.

As intimidating as it seems, this is actually plenty of time. Shoot the pole as soon as the game allows you and sprint to the objective. When you first step outside, you will need to kill the two guys guarding the door and continue running. Once you reach the closest checkpoint to the end, shoot the guys firing from the level above and run to the rope that you need to slide down from and escape. If you got to it before 2:15, the achievement should pop.

Enjoy your 30G. Happy hunting!
