Ghost Recon: Future Soldier Message Board  

It would be nice to have all the guns

I second this, I've only had the game a couple of days and already I feel frustrated with not being able to get some things because the challenges are ridiculous for some of them (3 kills with 3 shells in 3 seconds with a shotgun - almost impossible)

A save game with them all might work if they're tied to your profile. Otherwise I guess we just wait and hope, there's still a lot that needs fixing with it yet but otherwise it's a great game.

@ WskOsc

You are kidding right? About the 3 shotty kills in 3 seconds...?

See below for a fool proof guide to completing it.

Spoiler:

Most of these challenges are easy... what Ubisoft have (IMO) cleverly done is make it so certain missions are only completable at very specific points... forcing you to reply and experiment in the game. Since I am thoroughly enjoying the game, this won't be an issue for me... and my friends haven't got the game yet so I will run through it a couple more times with them.

You sir are brilliant.

I've been replaying this mission so much trying to get the kills indoors on this mission and failing horribly, it never occurred to me to take out those guys you mention.

Did it on my second try with your method. Maybe you should consider writing a walkthrough on how to complete these challenges to help others who're struggling to get the unlocks.

Now, onto laying into people with my pierce-everything 417.

haha, I'm am more than happy to help, thanks for the confirmation that it works somewhat consistently.

I would write a guide but unfortunately I'm a busy fella and only get to play games a few hours a week these days. Apart from the odd weekend but those are filled with co-op games mostly :P

I have only just got past that level with the shotty challenge myself, though if I come across any other challenges worth a short guide I may very well add them.

I'm still not entirely sure how they work... are they tied to a specific mission or can you complete them in any level? Might be worth noting as there are some prime spots to complete some of the other challenges I have seen.

@cogrock

All the challenges are tied to a specific mission, you can only complete them on the imssion they show up in.

Some of them have obvious points or are outright noted in the description (10 headshots while in diamond formation for example) but there's still a few like kill 8 people with assault rifles in 30 seconds that're hard to accomplish because you've simply got to lay into a group of enemies in a big fight and hope you can pop enough of them without going down, and that's the real kicker on those, if you get wounded and have to be helped back up you're not gonna be able to finish it without going back to the last checkpoint and trying again.

For the AR challenges like that one though I do recommend using either the AN94 in two-round burst mode or the 417 without a silencer but with a backscatter optic so you can shoot people through the flimsy cover they like to hide behind, makes those challenges way easier. Obviously armour piercing ammunition works well with that too.

While on this topic, I'm not sure if the challenge to kill 10 Bodark while they're under the effects of EMP is broken or not but I couldn't get it to count any of my kills when I'd decloaked them with an EMP grenade.

Is there any news on unlocking all the weapons and mods for SP. I remember for R6 there was a file. Save game is not working. Is it just me or did programmers did some FUBAR programming.

Hi everyone.

Gunsmith unlocks for SP would be GREAT!! I'm stuck playing the same missions again and again. It's frustrating
