which ones are you haveing trouble with specifically?

[Xiupan]

Has anyone figured out how to get all the medals yet?

[urAssass1n]

Has anyone figured out how to get all the medals yet?

I'm still working on them, but most of them aren't too too difficult, they just require multiple times through the game, unless you are good enough to clear 3-6 sepperate objective points in one run. I usually only get all but one. As far as the medals on the first page, it tells you, somewhat, how to get them. They seem to just be different tiers of the same medal. Possibly the same medal but on different difficulties. If that is the case I hope they trickle down because i really don't want to play on the easier difficulties, they just are too easy.

[mateo1472]

has anyone figured out how many planes there are and how to use aliied supoort?

[urAssass1n]

has anyone figured out how many planes there are and how to use aliied supoort?

not sure how many planes there are yet, however to use allied support that is when you push up or down on your d-pad. pushing up puts your wingman on attack, pushing and holding up puts everyone on attack of your targets in view. Down does the same thing except for cover. Easiest mission to get the "kill 50 using allied air support" is mission 9..... you'll see why when you get there.

[urAssass1n]

In order to get the all secrets achievement you have to unlock the following:

Ace of Aces Mode - Complete the game on Expert.

CFA 44 Nosferatu Fighter - Beat the game on Hard difficulty. It will appear in your hangar, purchase it for $229,500.

Music Player - Beat the game once.

Scene Viewer - Beat the game once.

Unlock Expert Difficulty- Beat the game once.

SP New Game - Complete campaign once on any difficulty setting.

Does anybody know how to get the "10 Frontline Landings" achievement? Is there a specific mission you need to do it in?

[urAssass1n]

Does anybody know how to get the "10 Frontline Landings" achievement? Is there a specific mission you need to do it in?

there are a few missions that have an airport right on the mission map. You have to find this airport and then land on it. Most of the time it is heavily guarded, however when you clear it out, it saves a lot of time when you need to repair or reload. The last mission I saw it on was mission 11 I believe, but i know for a fact it is on several other missions before that as well. when you get close to the airport you will see a "landing gear down" button/animation show up next to your radar map, you would hit the left thumbstick button to drop your landing gear which will allow you to make a frontline landing.

[urAssass1n]

Does anyone know how you get credit for the allied assault record? I have credit for 5 of them, however I know you are obviously not suppose to kill them, so what are the criteria to getting them?

[Spybreak4u]

I only got 6 so far ... I'll be posting them as soon as I at least get 10.

[Caedus]

I think you have to get S ranks on certain operations to get the allied assault records. I'm on my second playthrough and getting a lot more S ranks, and I've gotten several new records.

[urAssass1n]

I think you have to get S ranks on certain operations to get the allied assault records. I'm on my second playthrough and getting a lot more S ranks, and I've gotten several new records.

I thought that too, but then I looked at what I got on my first run through, and I got about 60-70% S rank, but finished the game with only 5 allied assault guys. I did have a theory, I think it might have something to do with the operations, and if you finish certain operations before the allied force drops below a certain percentage.

Words cannot express how much dissapointment I feel when I look down at the "win 100 matches" achievments. Even more so since I cant seem to get a siege game going to save my life.

[urAssass1n]

Words cannot express how much dissapointment I feel when I look down at the "win 100 matches" achievments. Even more so since I cant seem to get a siege game going to save my life.

I agree, I played 1 match of team battle last night and when I tried for another, there wasn't even 1 game going on of that type. Guess the launch of this game was too close to the halo 3 launch and people just aren't sick of that game yet, there still is usually over a million people online playing that game.

Also, has anyone gotten the Allied Assault record achievement yet? I am just curious what the last emmerian assault record emblem. I have my predictions and speculations, but I have not been able to get that one as of yet. It is actually the only one I have to get yet for the allies.

EDIT: you get the last emmerian assault record when you fininsh the estovakian record. My speculations were correct, its *spoiler Garuda 1

[an7man]

Anyone know what the Hidden content is ? Does that mean unlocking the colours, Planes etc.?

[urAssass1n]

Anyone know what the Hidden content is ? Does that mean unlocking the colours, Planes etc.?

No, the hidden content is the content you get for beating the game and aces of aces mode.

EDIT: yes, planes and colors count as hidden content... :-(

[gk23m]

i need help with the Enemy Assault Records im only missing number 13 and 22



and for the allied assault records just do all operations and youll get them doesn't need to be in 1 go, just check wich operations you did do in the medals section, but they say you can't get the last 1 in till you get all Enemy Assault Records, but you can get all the others


and also anyknow how to unlock aces of aces mode i beat on expert and easy so far,and got all s ranks i unlock ace level but not aces of aces, and im still wondering how to unlock battle statistics in the gallery

[urAssass1n]

i need help with the Enemy Assault Records im only missing number 13 and 22

number 13, if i remember correctly, is on mission 1 on expert, if you destroy all the targets fast. He shows up with the Strigon and is a F22-A model. his name is PEGAS.

[gk23m]

umm after i got 13 wich was at the 1st mission the battle statistics unlocked but it only shows the frist mission


thank you urassass1n

its seems as if they are in order from 13 on

13 lv 1
14 lv 2
15 lv 3 and so on,so i found number 22 in lv 10

how do you get the other colors for the last plane, i started a new mission on normal and after i finished the frist mission i got the second color, now i just need the third for the achievement

[urAssass1n]

how do you get the other colors for the last plane, i started a new mission on normal and after i finished the frist mission i got the second color, now i just need the third for the achievement

the first color (emmerian) is the only color you can get at the start for each plane. The second color (estovakian) is unlocked when you beat the game on normal, but probably any difficulty will count. The third color (estovakian sp) is unlocked when you shoot down each ace on expert. Is this what you are asking?

umm after i got 13 wich was at the 1st mission the battle statistics unlocked but it only shows the frist mission


thank you urassass1n

the battle statistics unlock after you start each campaign, after you beat each mission on that difficulty you then can review your "progress" on that difficulty. If you play the same difficulty twice to get all the operations then you will see every operation give you a time and a rank.

and your welcome:)

Well, it seems that doesn't do it either. Seems quite a few people have done everything possible. Unless someone out there wants to speak up and say how they unlocked it, my guess is it's going to be downloadable. If that is the case, then Ace of Aces is not part of the secrets achievement since there are people who have it.

Like I said, I'd love to see someone prove me wrong, I haven't found anyone out there who knows how its unlocked.

Now back to the colors again... killing all the named planes doesn't do it, since the CFA-44 has 2 more paintjobs. I have unlocked the 2nd, as have many people, but no one I've seen has had a difinitive answer to how it's done. It seems incredibly likely, that it unlocks once you complete your first mission after you buy every plane and every paintjob. As for the 3rd one, I have no idea, as does everyone I've seen talking about this. I wish someone who's gotten it would speak up, since I know they exist.

I love the Ace Combat series to death, but these achievements and unlockables are driving me nuts, just by the fact that no one in the AC community seems to know anything for sure about them. pArt of me wonders if I'm just not looking in the right places...

urAssass1n, If I find any new info, I'll let you know. I really hope we can round out the edges so everyone has a difinitive guide.

Well this just means it is time for me to start the grind. Well here is to unlocking how to get the aces of aces mode..... :drunk:locked(they should have the same gif but unlocked eheh)

EDIT: I just read something interesting. It is just rumor, however one person noted the development team stated that there was going to possibly be a DLC difficulty level. If this is the case then it doesn't matter what this difficulty is because it is either unlockable now meaning 1000/1000 or its DLC.

I also have a theory, and I'm not sure if anyone has tried this yet, but it may be that you have to have S in every objective on every difficulty, or at a bare minimum on one difficulty.

[Drivont]

Yeah, I'm betting it's DLC.

For now, I'm trying to get that last paintjob. Someone has said they got it by obtaining a certain number of medals. But he doesn't know how many. Sounds odd, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

I heard rumor about that and what i found on other forums was that is was 12-14 medals... but then someone came back and said they got it when they got S on the 4 difficulties.... so its still a mystery

Ok, so i just finished my campaign.... for the third time. This run through was on Expert. First 2 were on normal to get all operations. When i completed this one it unlocked ace of aces difficulty. So now we have to figure out what i did different. When my expert campaign was completed I unlocked 4 achievements at the same time.... all aircraft, original aircraft, allied assault record, and estovakian assault record.

The combination of all the other medals that i have recieved, i now have 9, and all operations, along with these achievements has something to do with this new difficulty setting. Now all i have to do is get the last 2 colors for the nasferatu and it should be everything that needs to be unlocked for the achievement.....:woop:

OK...
#1 You are 100% sure it's AoA and not Ace?
#2 Were you awarded a medal when you completed the campaign?
#3 Which difficulty levels have you gotten S on all missions?
#4 Mind listing what Medals you have?

I've beaten it on Hard x2, Expert x1, and Ace x1 with all S on Ace, lots of free mode runs, and roughly 18 hours of air time. I have those 4 achievements you mentioned.

Hopefully we can figure out what I'm missing. I'm guessing it's in the medals or S ranks.

Btw, I think we can safely assume that the way to unlock the 2nd CFA-44 color is by buying all the colors for all the planes. I've heard a few people have the same experience. If/when you have the cash, you should be able to confirm this. I think all the confusion was because it doesn't unlock until you finish a mission, any mission.

I'll have to check on this when i get home. Now that you mentin it, it might be just ace, but there were no other difficulties to be unlocked so im not sure off the top of my head. I will also confirm the purchasing of the planes for the second color scheme when i get home since i have enough cash in the game to probably by every plane like 10 times... ugh... as far as the medals go if i can remember correctly, i have all the "ace medals","bronze and silver marksman",the landing one, the fighter one, the multirole one, and guardian..... As far as S's I have yet to go back and redo missions to get the S rank on anyone of them, however I noticed it is extreemely easy to get S ranks so there are only a few I have to get per difficulty. I can say confidently that off the top of my head i easly have about 85-90% of my missions and operations and secondary missions I have S ranks.

i was talking about the last plane, i shoot down every ace on expert already, but i see that no knows how to get the last color for the last plane

its not the second color i own every plane and second color and third color just not the 3rd one for the last plane you get for beating it on expert

[an7man]

So how do you get the 2nd color for the Nosferatu?

[Drivont]

Buy all the colors for all the planes and then complete a mission. Still trying to figure out the 3rd color.

Nope it was ace, and that was it.... as far as Ace of Aces I'm convinced it is DLC when if you choose SP New Game it isn't even listed as a difficulty possibility.

Oh and I did confirm the buying all the planes and colors nets you the second color scheme for the cfa-44... .what i wish i tried now in forsight is that i just bought 1 of each plane, to see if that would have been enough.

I did that, and it didn't work. So I'm confident it's all of them.

1st things 1st, ill gladly appreciate everybodys help since im new to this but im havin some some very weird problems with this game (http://www.****************.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58685#). i have completed the game in easy,normal,hard,expert, and ace mode and also have gotten a S rank in all missions and i also did all operation medals but for some reason i havent unlocked two achievements. These include : All Colors, All Secrets. I Am Missing the last color Scheme for the CFA-44. People has told me they got it when they had beaten ace mode which i have and i still havent gotten it. And People has also told me that they unlocked Ace of Aces Mode when they had beaten expert mode which i've also did. Is Anybody havin this same problem or am i doin somethin wrong and O yea i beat the game in all difficultys thru SP Campaign, not Free Mission. Thx Alot EVerybody Once Again.

[WILD BAMA BOY]

All secrets should have been unlocked when you completed the last mission. (THAT IS COMPLETELY WRONG, MY BAD)

I am also missing the last color for the CFA-44...I just can't figure it out...

BTW everybody, what is Ace of Aces mode? I've beaten all difficulties and it doesn't seem to have been unlocked.

Well the people that have said they have unlocked ace of aces mode are probably lieing to you. Seems as though that one is going to be DLC. Not confirmed, but the dev team stated that they were going to have a difficulty level be DLC, so that would just confirm their statement. Besides if you notice you cannot even choose AoA mode on SP new game. Its not even ghosted, it's just not there. As far as all secrets/colors. Not sure how to get the last color of CFA-44, and i haven't found anything online either stateing how to get it, but when you do, thats when you will unlock all secrets and colors achievements.

EDIT: there is a rumor circulating around the internet that the last color for the CFA-44 you get when either 1) you finish the game with all medals, or 2) when you get the complete the campaign without taking any dammage medal.

Yeah you played it on easy.... heh... no seriously though you cannot get the medals on easy, any other difficulty is fine though.

[Snake7336]

ok thanks for the heads up so i can choose Sp new game and then normal difficulty right? and my last final question hopefully...the medals for just using the machine gun thruout campaign..does anybody know if allied support allowed?

[urAssass1n]

ok thanks for the heads up so i can choose Sp new game and then normal difficulty right?

Yes you can, and i intend to do just that to get my 0 dammage medal... which is going to suck by the way... 15 missions... 0 dammage... ugh

[Snake7336]

Yes you can, and i intend to do just that to get my 0 dammage medal... which is going to suck by the way... 15 missions... 0 dammage... ugh

I Know Man its gonna be tough but not impossible.:drunkSo Allied support is allowed when you're going for the using guns only medal correct? Some ppl claiming that you can't use it. Im Going Nuttz lol

[urAssass1n]

I Know Man its gonna be tough but not impossible.:drunkSo Allied support is allowed when you're going for the using guns only medal correct? Some ppl claiming that you can't use it. Im Going Nuttz lol

I cant claim yes or no, however if it is not allowed, I will never go for this medal. However it says its awarded for completeing the campaign using only machine guns, it says nothign about allied support, so i would say it's fair game. You can always check too... just to the first mission using only machine guns and then when it ends, check the battle stats. You should have 100% on your machine gun kills....

If you can't use allied support, I really don't want to mission 9, or fight pasternak..... Though like pool, I always get better after a few:drunk:)

I think im going to go hardcore for this one.... go for the machine gun medal, along with the attack plane medal, as well as the 0 dammage.... oh yeah... hahahah, right after i finish my silver bullet run..... so far i think im running good times, but we'll see

[gk23m]

i finish a campain and shot up all ground units with my guns and i already had the 50 guns kills medal the silver one. but it will not give me the gold one i think im at 300 plus kills with my guns. is any one else having a problem like that just wanted to know

I'm pretty sure it's air targets.

[gk23m]

ya i now see that the medals say air craft

[gk23m]

i got this from a web site

To unlock the third color scheme for the CFA-44, have all "S" ranks in all missions from the Easy through Ace difficulty settings, earn all Operation Medals, have at least 15 Service Medals, have all Enemy Records, and have all Friend Records.

makes it worth a try i need to do 2 more campaign run to complete every thing here ill see if i get it (hard and ace)



the web site also says to get ace of aces beat the games on expert wich is not true they get there tips from other people

[Zenquen]

Someone was telling me that to get the online battle and kill achievements sooner, you need to remember to save your game data before you turn off Ace Combat, does anyone know if this is true?

[gk23m]

on last campaign run , on mission 11 ace

ill have a total of 17 medals after this run

[gk23m]

Someone was telling me that to get the online battle and kill achievements sooner, you need to remember to save your game data before you turn off Ace Combat, does anyone know if this is true?

im pretty sure it auto saves after each battle

[gk23m]

dang i only need to get a s rank on mission 13 ive plaed it about 6 times any tips any one



-edit-

i final got it and unlock the 3rd color

[gk23m]

im guessing to unlock ace of aces you need all medals


i need 3 more

i need these ones

-use only a attacker(wich i did but for some reson i didn't get it i used the f-117a stealth looking bomber i thinking maybe because i used the 3rd color

- use only the gun to complete campaign

-not getting hit in campain



so im working on the gun one with an attacker to knock out 2

it has not been confirmed yet, but it is pretty much a certain that ace of aces mode will be DLC. If you notice you don't even have the choice for ace of aces on your campaign difficulty choices. It only shows up on the free flight mode.

[an7man]

Aces of Aces mode is that the mode higher than Expert?

If it is Im currently playing it on single player. But for me it just says Ace.
Not sure if thats the mode.

Just to verify the modes are easy,normal,hard,expert,ace right?

No, "Ace" and "Ace of Aces" are 2 different modes.

There is speculation though nothing confirmed as of yet, but it seems to be the case, that ace of aces mode will be DLC. The dev team stated they will be makeing a DLC difficulty level that would be the hardest of them all. Also if you notice, the only place that you can even choose ace of aces mode is in freeflight, though it is ghosted, which i believe is either a bug, as it wasn't suppose to be even shown, or what it has become, a well placed ghosted difficulty level that will get people talking and generate its own hype till the DLC is ready.

I was trying to fight all of the named Aces I was wondering if there is a list of what aces you need to make spawn because I didn't get one in the first mission

You all asked for it and here it is

To unlock the third color scheme for the CFA-44, have all "S" ranks in all missions from the Easy through Ace difficulty settings, earn all Operation Medals, have at least 15 Service Medals, have all Enemy Records, and have all Friend Records.

[pongsifu]

There is a locked thread that asks if you can get medals on easy mode, and they answered no. I've played the first 4 levels on easy and I got a medal...

[Fighterspledge]

You probably got an assault record for shooting down one of the estovackian 12 or assisted an ally unit operation. Perhaps you can get the machine gun medals for the kills since it's not difficulty reliant?

[pongsifu]

Yeah it was a machine gun kill medal, I think I got it on the first level because I didn't know how to switch lock on targets.

[urAssass1n]

Yeah it was a machine gun kill medal, I think I got it on the first level because I didn't know how to switch lock on targets.

It turns out that MOST of the medals cannot be attained on easy. There are a few that can, however, be attained on easy. I am going to update the Medals thread and the achievement guide as soon as I find out more specifically which ones can be attained on easy, and which ones cannot.

[Fenrir767]

I've been trying to get the enemy assault records right now I'm on mission 13 using the cf44 in expert mode to beat the game and I've killed every ace except my wing man got one and I still don't have the 10 name planes achievement anyone got any ideas as to why

[WTYD]

I'm hearing from a lot of people that only ranked kills counts towards your online kills. Is it true?

[urAssass1n]

I'm hearing from a lot of people that only ranked kills counts towards your online kills. Is it true?

no player kills count as well, this has been confirmed numerous times by people who only play player matches.

[Drivont]

no player kills count as well, this has been confirmed numerous times by people who only play player matches.

I believe the confusion regarding this came about because kills won't count towards achievements if you don't save.

[urAssass1n]

I believe the confusion regarding this came about because kills won't count towards achievements if you don't save.

very possible, we both seen that discussed in here. So yes, to reiterate Drivont, make sure to save after you are done playing online because the system does not autosave like it does in the campaign.

And Fen, sorry cant help, not quite sure why the achievement isn't unlocking. Just wanted to let you know we didn't miss that comment, just doesn't seem like anyone knows the answer for ya. Sorry.

[Dj-spuddy]

I ran through expert mode only using the C-44 but I didn't get any service medals for only using a certain type of plane. I'm sure it's an attacker type, Or can you not use the C-44 to get the only use certain planes service medals?

the 44 is a fighter... so if you already have the fighter medal, then you can't get it again

[urAssass1n]

thnx again iskoot but i got all colors achievemnt but not all secrets also i have AL medals:confused:

The only way to get this, as you can see from the achievement guide, is to unlock everything, which includes the Colors, medals, as well as planes. They all go hand in hand as stated in the last thread you created and posted to. The only way for the above mentioned to occure would be to obviously beat the game, on multiple run throughs, and/or free missions. Since you don't have your gamertag available to see noone can verify you have done all the required criteria. PM me your gamertag so I can see what you have and see if you are missing anything on the achievements.

Hi urAssasin my gamertrag is trailertrash87 thx

Hi urAssasin my gamertrag is trailertrash87 thx

Hey trailer, I was just looking at your ach's for AC6, and to be honest with you I have no clue what you are missing... Try playing a normal level campaign game level. Not from free mission, but a normal "new sp" game level. If this achievement is anything like some of the other unlockables, you may only get it after you play a mission.... But other then that, I really can't help you. You seem to have all the pre-req's for this ach, however you obviously don't have it. Let me know if this works.:confused::confused::confused:

[Trailertrash]

hi urAssassin It didnt work i think its a stupid glitch i think i never get that achievement :(:mad:

[CareerNoob]

About the only thing I can think of is maybe you've unlocked the SP-scheme for the CFA-44 but didn't purchase it afterward? About having to play another mission: yesterday I went for my last medal which was all S's in Hard and I just needed to get an S in one mission. After playing that mission in free-mission mode, I immediately got both the medal and the achievement. Also, I had every paint for every plane (not including the downloaded ones...) as well as every weapon for every plane purchased and sitting in the hangar at the time. Not saying that if you didn't buy it, that that's it though...

About the possibility of it being a glitch: I was thinking that maybe you don't have a Live account and therefore haven't downloaded a free update - it fixed a mission-6 glitch I was experiencing, though it was listed as a general update. I was thinking that, but then I've heard of people getting that achievement without having Live, so...

Just a couple shots in the dark...:confused:

[urAssass1n]

hi urAssassin It didnt work i think its a stupid glitch i think i never get that achievement :(:mad:

Just another thought trailer... did you also play the game and get all S ranks in easy????

[Trailertrash]

no i didnt but its not related to the achievemnt right??

[urAssass1n]

no i didnt but its not related to the achievemnt right??

I cannot confim as I did not get this achievement yet; however I have heard from other sources that yes, it is required.

[Trailertrash]

oke i will try it i will let you know tank you

it didnt work have S ranks on easy still no achievement:confused::(

[ZeGlobox]

Hi !

I just can't manage to unlock the "Ground defense" Achievement :confused: ... That's weird, cause I've completed the campaign twice (easy & hard), and I've been using the Allied attack & support a lot... but for some reason, it doesn't unlock... I did unlock (quite easily the aerial defense one though) any help ?

Thanks !

All I can say is after you use allied attack on the ground unit(s), don'st fire at anything on the ground. Sometimes your tanks and stuff are so far away that it takes them a little to get there and destroy their intended target(s). Also, it takes them multiple hits. You also don't get credit for this achievement when your allies in the sky shoot the target. So after you complete a mission objective, start another sky one and have your pilots preoccupied, then find one that is primarliy ground, and allie attack away.

[ZeGlobox]

thanks a lot :Bounce:

[Jade Falcon]

Damn I never got Strigon 10 or 11, and I really don't want to have to do the Chandelier mission again.....

[iRule]

Dude,
I went through the campaign more than a dozen times and still have few more attempts to go.
Once you get the CFA-44 things will become very easy and fun.

Regards

[Soldier 4 I AM]

I agree with irule. I think I am at my 10th play through and still have to get the no damage and the time medal. I also have to go through the game on easy to get all “S” Ranks. It sucks people have to play through so many times.

Once you get the SFA-44 the game is very easy. With the SP weapon you can take out around 15 to 20 TGS at once. I’m not sure if that number is correct, but it beats taking them out one at a time with a missile.

[Soldier 4 I AM]

The last mission is a lot of fun. Yes, there are a lot of targets and things shooting at you, but it is fun. I just got the Machine Gun only medal and I was real worried about this mission. I came home on a lunch break and beat the level within 7 minutes. I used the A-10 for this mission. I flew down the left side and took out the cooling units. I took out the four in the back. Then I took out the targets on the other side. I used allied support to take out the jets and ships shooting missiles at me. The A-10 nose cannon is awesome for taking out enemy units. Try it out and let me know.

[Soldier 4 I AM]

All Secrets

I am going for this achievement next. It seems that Trailertrsh is having problems. I don’t have all medals and I have to beat easy with “S” ranks. I have everything else. With that said when I beat the game on Easy with “S” ranks. Should I get this achievement? Do I have to have all medals? I need the zero damage and the I have to beat the game in under 2 hrs 15 min.

[DriveByBaptism]

So whats this like on expert and ace of aces? Is it swearing and getting pissed off to the point I'll send my controller through my TV>?

[gangsterGB]

to sum up the achievements you can get.
there hard
non understandable
dont unlock when you think you have done them

[DreadfulCorpse]

How do you lock on other planes? To shoot with the turret and not missiles.

I don't think you can lock on with the turret.

[ragnaroky]

I have a question for someone with 1000/1000 or pretty close to it; How many playthroughs did it take you to get your achievements, it seems like it could take at least 4 and I don't know if I could stomach campaign that much, it was nowhere near on par with 4 or 5s.

Alright I have all the campaign achievements and working on the on line ones. To get all the story achievements it will take around 14 yes, 14 play troughs to get all story achievements.

The online achievements are a bear as well. A body of mine and I have been playing Team Battle for around 20 Hrs and we are only at 60 wins a piece. The match is at 5 minutes and one player wins. Then you switch when the match is over. Team Battles take about 10 minutes for us both to get a win. The siege Battles take forever and are very time consuming. It took about 30 to 35 minutes to get two wins a piece and you have to have 100 wins to be done with that type of battle. You are looking at weeks just for the online boosting with a friend in player matches.

[Soldier 4 I AM]

I don't think you can lock on with the turret.

You cant lock on to another aircraft with the gun.

[adrenaline1983]

I just started playing this game a week ago. Until recently, I haven't been into my 360, whether it was COD4 or MLB 2k8. I got this game and it's probably the best game I've played on this system.

Anyways, I have 24/49 achievements - all campaign related. Getting closer to getting all the medals, but it isn't easy! One thing that I find extremely annoying are the online achievements. Win 30 Siege battles? Kill 200 enemies? Not worth it.

I've played through it twice so far on Normal and Hard difficulties. I suspect it'll take about 4-5 more playthroughs to be honest. There's an ass-load of medals requiring you to not sustain any damage throughout the campaign, kill all enemies with your machine-gun, etc. Plus you have to try and get the quicksilver medal, which shouldn't be a problem, but only if you can do it on Easy... any harder is just pushing it.

I just figured this one out because I was having the same problem. I had unlocked everything listed in the achievement guide for getting this achievement but it would not unlock. It turns out, you must complete the campaign (NOT freemissions) on Ace difficulty in order to unlock the "SP Gamerpic"...once I did this, I received the All Secrets achievement.
