How to unlock the Hats Off achievement in Halo 5: Forge - Definitive Guide

You can do this is a 1v1.

7 headshots, and then finish the game (NOT ending early). The achievement will pop at the score screen.

Edit: Jappe says you can end early and still get the achievement.

I made a Small SWAT map and a Fast SWAT game variant to help with headshots and KDA. The map is just Alpine with the spawn points moved close to the center and extra objects removed. The game variant is SWAT, with no intro, instant respawn, and no visibility check for respawn.

I ended early and still got the achievement. It was after 10 headshots since I was also doing the 10 KDA.

FYI sniper rifle headshots do count for this (just confirming since the medal you get is different from a normal 'Headshot' medal). I just got it with 1 Headshot medal and 8 Sniper Headshot medals.

Negative vote because it does unlock if you end the game early. Makes it much easier because you can just put the game to 50 kills and then count the headshot medals to see when you are at 7 kills. The game does not track headshots well. You should first shoot the shield off from your opponent and then aim one shot in the upper side of their head. You should land a headshot medal. When you get 7 of these just end the game from the menu.

@Jappe, when I tried ending the game early it never popped for me. Solution edited. Hopefully you'll change to a positive vote.

I set up a non-team SWAT game on a suitable map and easily got 7 headshots (as well as the +10 k/d spread and 4+ people on a custom map).

The point is, you can do this easily without boosting.

Just got this today, joined a random arena pistols only 1v1 custom game, the other dude was really good but just managed to pop 7 headshots before the game ended. Also can confirm that if there are rounds in the game, as long as you get 7 headshots it will count. (Let’s say you get 4 headshots in round 1 and 3 headshots in round 2, it’ll still count)

This may come naturally if you play online and use the Battle Rifle or other precision gun and always go for the head. Alternatively, it is recommended that you do this at the same time as Elitist (45G).
