Three of the 4 basic challenges are fairly simple to get. As long as you ADS with every kill then you should complete both Challenge 1 and 2 together, then for the “Get 10 Double Kills with the M4” you’ll ideally want to play objective-based game modes, such as Hardpoint or Headquarters, as you’ll constantly have a enemies sitting around the objective allowing you to grab two easy kills. If you’re find that the M4 is not performing to your liking, then consider checking out our M4 loadout and class set-up as it’ll will improve the weapons stats to allow you to win most medium to long range gunfights.
Next up, you’ll need to get 15 Kills from behind with the M4 which is slightly trickier then the other 3, but still easily doable. Like Challenge 3 you’ll want to stick with objective-based as it’ll make it easier for you to run around to the back of the enemies whilst they’re distracted on getting the objective. For example, if you’re playing Hardpoint on Santa Seña Border Crossing, then you run up the left side or right side of the map depending on your spawn and sneak up behind the enemies as they’ll be looking the other way making it easier to kills from the back.
Once you’ve completed the four basic camos you’ll move onto the M4 Gold Camo Challenge which is a lot easier to complete. All you need to do is get three kills without dying ten times to get the gold camo. Team Deathmatch is probably a better mode to play for this challenge as you dont have to worry about the objective, so you can find somewhere to hide out, so you can pick of enemies by surprise making it easier to wrack up the three killstreak. Upon completion of the M4 Gold Camo Challenge you’ll need to unlock Gold for the remaining 7 guns before you can move onto the M4 Platinum Camo Challenge.
This Camo is a little more difficult, as you need to get long-distance kills. Here we recommend sitting on long angles in Invasion maps, or playing long angles of Taraq or Embassy to get the kills. If you mount it to the wall by pressing . Additionally, if you’re finding long-shots hard to pull off, then try one of the magnified scopes, such as the VLK 4.0 Optic or Forge Tac Delta 4 as it’ll make seeing enemies in the distance easier. The XTEN Angel-40 is a great holographic with a built in range finder. You only need to get kills around 35 meters+, so this sight should make it easier to determine those ranges.
Once you’ve obtained all 51 Platinum weapons you’ll finally move onto the Polyatomic Camo Challenge which requires you to 25 headshots. Stick with whatever build you as that works with your playstyle to get it. We recommend being close to mid range whilst using the Cronen Mini Red Dot to make it easier to line up your shots. Stick with none-objective based gamemodes like TDM as it’ll make it easier for you to avoid being in situations where you’re facing 3+ enemies.
This concludes the M4 camo challenges for MW3. Good luck farming those challenges, getting gorgeous gold and pretty platinum and other hard to graft for skins.
