You can pick your character by pressing Start at the main menu, then going to multiplayer then selecting your default COG character as either;
Micheal Barrick
Minh Young Kim
Alicia Valera
or Tai Kaliso
Then all you have to do is play 10 Public online matches and hope you're on the Cog team.
If you want to do this quicker, play Warzone or Execution as they are the quickest game modes.
Note: When you join a game in progress it may not let you be your character for that game. Just finish that one and at the start of the next game you should then be playing with your chosen character.

Lol, do we really need a guide for this.
Probably not, but you never know, someones might glitch or people might not know the quickest game mode.

Just don't try this on capture the leader because you become Prescott and then that match will not count.

@McDurbin, apparently you needed the guide or your simple ass wouldn't had clicked on the solution. SMH... Doofus.
Anyways, thumbs up!

If you pick Alicia then you can also make more progress to the Battle Mistress medal!

Does this have be all at the same time, or can I get this 2 of the 10 this month and then 3 of 10 next month?

You can get this anytime. It does not have to be done in one go.

"hope you're on the Cog team" Ok, now it's in English.

This game does that alot. Its only meant to happen when you join a game in progress, but sometimes even when its a start of a new game it sais you have joined in progress. Theres nothing you can do to stop this.

does this have to be public or can this be done in a private match as well?
By Twistedsymphony on 05 Jun 2012 12:46
It sais in the achievement and the guide that it has to be public.
By AlonsoFive on 05 Jun 2012 13:11
can we be 3 players and 2 of us use guest controller?
Yes, that shouldn't affect anything.

is there any way to get into the CoG Team more often
i tried several times and i always get into the shitty locust team :(

For anyone having problems getting this quickly, I recommend Team Slayer gametype instead. It seemed to go faster round to round.

Isn't team slayer halo. I think you mean Deathmatch.

Hi.
why does it never let me play the character I selected, it always gives me another character, also in a new game. Someone have a solution? thanks.

Super late comment, but for anyone that still needs this, Hype Execution (the last gamemode in the Standard list) is likely the fastest. It's only 4 rounds of Execution, with 4 players on each side instead of 5.

The way that I got this achievement:
I followed the other guide but instead of playing I rubber banded the analog sticks together and connected a USB cable to the console and left it running all night on the execution game type, by the morning I had the achievement.
