How to unlock the Preventive Diplomacy achievement in Spec Ops: The Line - Definitive Guide

I found the best place to get this achievement which will work every time. It is in Chapter 2. Follow the video for all the details. Thanks!

This is likely just something that will be pure luck and not planned at all. You have to shoot a soldier who is about to throw a grenade but just before he actually does.

I made a video to show how I got it, hope this helps but any feedback, please leave a comment.

I think most people will get this one naturally as they play through the game. The video below shows how I got it without trying. Vid also has two other achievements for this game as well. Enjoy.

To unlock this trophy you need to shoot an enemy who is about to throw a grenade at you. Your shots must kill him for this trophy to unlock. This trophy is very simple. During one of the many firefights you get into look for an enemy who is about to throw a grenade at you and shoot him. If you shot the enemy while his arm was reared back and obviously before he threw the grenade, then he would have died and dropped the grenade causing an explosion.


If you need additional information or just prefer visual aids then refer to FLIPADELPHIIA’s video below.

When an enemy is about to throw a grenade, he will will draw his arm back and hold it in the air a few seconds. As long as you kill him before he throws it, you will get the achievement.

If you reload a checkpoint, the same enemies will always throw grenades. If you find an enemy that is throwing a grenade, feel free to reload the checkpoint, and then stare at him until he raises his arm, and then kill him for the achievement. You can also unlock it through natural progression.

There will be plenty of places in the game, the main thing is to watch your opponents and as soon as you notice that one of them is swinging, shoot. For example here .
