How to unlock the Hot Potato achievement in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered - Definitive Guide

This is on the mission The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday.

Eventually you'll come to a section where enemies repel from the side, and you'll be attacked by a helicopter. Instead of using a rocket to dispose of it, head back into a safe corner and let the helicopter follow you. You'll need to cook grenades and throw them at the helicopter so that they explode midair and damage it. Do this twice in a row to destory the chopper and earn the achievement.

If you miss, or anything goes wrong, just restart the checkpoint.

Maka I love your guides but earning the achievement on PlayStation? That’s just some disrespect

After you've done the second door breach of the level you'll go up some stairs. Once here you'll encounter the helicopter. Best thing to do is to cook the grenade for two seconds or so and try to get it to blow up over the helicopter blades. If you run out of grenades, you can revert to last checkpoint.

Best to do it on Recruit.

Mission 9 The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday
Difficulty: Recruit

Half way through the mission a helicopter will spawn in. Run back from where it spawned and it will follow you, isolating it in a 1v1. Now just time your grenade throw to explode the helicopter. Playing on recruit is highly recommended as the helicopter will easily kill you on harder difficulties. reload the checkpoint as needed.

Here is a video guide with English commentary!

To get this Achievement you must destroy the helicopter on the level the Only easy Day Was Yesterday with frag grenades.

The video shows where to camp to lure the helicopter into grenade range.

Hold the grenade for 6 seconds before throwing so that it explodes in the air & you’re going to need 3 grenades.

In Mission 9, 'The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday', make sure you save your grenades for this encounter.

After you plant and detonate the C4 after the first breach, keep making your way up the oil rig and eventually a helicopter with rappelling enemies will appear on the left. Here you can unlock "The Harder They Fall".

If you continue along the platform, another helicopter will fly in and begin shooting at you. This is the helicopter to destroy with the frags. Instead of staying at your position, run back to the corner of the platform (where the orange tank is) and the helicopter will follow and stay in its general position instead of flying around.

The helicopter explodes from 2-3 frag grenades, so with it lined up, aiming slightly higher than the helicopter, press and hold for 4 seconds (the crosshairs will pulse once per second) and then throw the grenade. If you timed it correctly, the grenade will explode just as it reaches the helicopter. Finish it off to unlock the achievement.

Note: There is a checkpoint just before this encounter, so if you run out of grenades or the helicopter is destroyed by other means, just reload it.

Thanks to PS4Trophies for the video:
