How to unlock the VOD Master achievement in Operation Flashpoint: Red River - Definitive Guide

This is an addendum to Cuppachoc's great solution with our method for getting gold in Last Stand - Hold the Line.

We were all level 20 Grenadiers, equipped with Demolition perk (the one that gives bigger bang duh) and the HEDP slung grenades upgrade. These n00b tubes will yield less of an arch when firing (so you can almost point it straight at the enemy on the reticule and expect a direct hit instead of needing to adjust for the arch) and can take out an APC with one or two direct hits. Note that you know the APC is down when it stops moving and firing and it gives 10-15s before it blows up, so at that point you can leave it alone and concentrate on other stuff or re-up, as the next APC replacement won't spawn until the disabled APC blows up. The spec-ops chopper usually do a slow landing near us, and we can take it out with one shot from the tube.

- Two person designated for primarily n00b tube duty, standing around the grenade ammo area taking out all the HMVs, APCs, tanks, and spec ops choppers that comes from the horizon with the tube. We may even pick up the guns from our corpses as secondary so that we have backups when the fighting gets thick and don't have time to re-up. We typically have one standing up the hill near the Javelin ammo looking towards both area 2 and the horizon. He's also the spotter for the attack choppers. More on that later. The other tuber stands on the other side by the building underneath the turret launcher. Since he is the closest in terms of proximity to the vehicle spawns from the horizon he will almost always the first one to get shot at.

- Third person has n00b tube and Javelin, standing by the designated tube guy closest to where the Javelin ammo is located. He's responsible for taking out any vehicles The n00b tubers missed or for the tanks (which may take several shots but its certainly destroyable with the tube). The problem with using the Javelin is that it creates too much smoke and blurs the vision of any incoming vehicles so usually save this for when you start getting overwhelmed.

- Last person is on the top of the hill near area 1 equipped with the Javelin, though initially mostly for APCs and Tanks coming down the road that the AT mines don't hit but also for the attack choppers for later stages. The other three members will call out when the choppers arrive (they come from area 2) and the guy has a great vantage point to hit it with Javelin.

Same with Cuppachoc's solution we have AT mines all on the road though we don't use C4s much.

So is this also good for getting 1,000,000 points as well?

There are 8 FTE maps in the DLC, two in each mission type. You need to obtain a Gold rating on each of them which is accomplished by obtaining a certain score. To obtain the score, you need to accomplish as many objectives in the mission as possible.

Once you’ve obtained a Gold rating in all 8 VOD FTE maps, the achievement will unlock. It is recommended that you have a full team to do these.

Combat Sweep

  • Maps: ‘Cordon & Search’ and ‘Concrete Jungle
  • Score Requirements: 350,000 (C&S) and 320,000 (CJ)
  • Requirements for Gold: You need to kill every enemy on the map and destroy three hidden weapons caches. Once you have done that, make it to the extraction point. There is a bonus that counts down; the more time you take, the less your bonus will be. You should be able to get Gold if your bonus doesn’t go below x3.5 and all four players survive.

CSAR

  • Maps: ‘Smash & Grab’ and ‘Shepherd’s Watch
  • Score Requirements: 110,000 for each
  • Requirements for Gold: You need to rescue both pilots and destroy the downed helicopter. Make it to the extraction point without either pilot (or players) getting killed and you should have enough points for Gold.

Rolling Thunder

  • Maps: ‘Cattle Drive’ and ‘Red-Eye
  • Score Requirements: 70,000 for each
  • Requirements for Gold: None of the four convoy Humvees can be destroyed. You can lose a convoy soldier here and there, but lose too many and you might not obtain enough points to get Gold. Stop the convoy periodically to repair the vehicles and to clear out enemies in front of you before moving on, but remember, you lose points each time the convoy stops.

Last Stand

  • Maps: ‘The High Ground’ and ‘Hold the Line
  • Score Requirements: 500,000 for each
  • Requirements for Gold: These two maps are much harder than the main game’s Last Stand maps. It is recommended that you don’t try these with less than four human players. You can attempt this with three humans, but make sure the A.I. is a Level 20 in whatever class you select for it. It is recommended that all players are a high level Grenadier. Your target score is going to be roughly 340,000 points (which will happen around Stage 4 or 5, depending on your efficiency). Communication and a good strategy are key to succeeding. When you reach that score, call for the extraction (walk into the purple smoke) and make sure that all four players survive to be extracted. If they do, you will receive a x1.5 bonus which will bring you above the 500,000 points required for Gold.
  • Refer to “Millionaires’ Club” for a good strategy for getting these easily.

CuppaChoc has written a comprehensive survival guide for the Last Stand map ‘Hold the Line’ as it is more difficult to obtain Gold on than ‘The High Ground’. You can find it HERE.

You need to get gold on 8 new cards from the expansion.

It's easier to get by playing co-op with friends.
