X3F TV -- Points>Life: One Shot, One Kill
What's this, you ask? That's right, X3F TV has finally spawned an Achievement Point focused weekly video feature called Points>Life. Dedicated to bringing you the details on obtaining the easiest points around as well as tips on how to get the hard ones! Since the Xbox 360 library is pretty vast you may already have some of these points but we'll eventually hit one you haven't unlocked yet.
In the inaugural episode of Points>Life on X3F TV we tackle the mission "One Shot, One Kill" in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare on the veteran difficulty setting. With this handy tip you can ensure the onslaught of spawning enemy forces will be no match for you and your hunt for those sweet Achievement points!

Great idea for site content, love it - especially if you stick to those "hard to get" achievements or showing neat tips & tricks (standing on the spawn point - heh!)

Nice video for those who have not seen it. The strategy has been out since launch and it is what I used to complete the level on veteran my first playthrough.
Another tip, for those who don't know, is that you can place your claymores/C4s down around the perimeter before you drop the captain (or whatever his name is. Haven't played in since RSV2). When you eventually do drop the captain off, he will give you another set of C4/Claymores to spread around. Very helpful to secure the area.

Nice work, Xav. I've been getting killed left on right on Veteran (kind of like running around on N+) so this will give me some unexpected points.

Not sure if this applies to the single-player, but you don't need the C4 detonator out to use it. You can just double tap X.

Nice... unfortunately I can't get past the first part of that level. I just can't seem to get to the building on veteran.

I'd like the name more if it had a logo to go along with it. At first glance I thought an html tag got dropped into the code, heh.

I didn't run behind that building. I just went and hid behind the bumper car ride. I'd stick my head around the corner and kill any dude running toward me. If I'd get shot, I'd duck back behind the ride to recover.
When the helicopter landed, I just grabbed my guy and hauled ot the chopper.
As to beating "War Room", the key for me was going prone when shooting guys down the hall. I read the tip from fourzerotwo from Infinity Ward. Worked for me.

Nicely done. I don't have COD4 yet but I'll definitely use this walkthrough. How about somebody doing one for Bioshock. I still haven't finished that darn game.

Thank you Xav! I was stuck here and haven't touched it in over a week. I think I'll go back and try tonight.
One question. If this vid is for cheevos, why didn't you mention the enemy intel in this level you have to grab right by where you told us to stand behind the building? I think its number 23/30. You can't grab it until the helicopers come, then the doors across from where you are standing will open. The intel is in there.

Actually that's a good question.
Since the spawn point you're breaking IS that door being opened, you can stand there all day and night and it won't open!
What I recommend is to load it up again on Normal and grab it then.

I see. Thanks for the heads up. I'l give it a try tonight and see if that C4 helps. I have a feeling it will.
This couldn't of been a better Points>Life vid. This is what I needed. Thanks again.
