CQB bonuses
Reach the indicated level to unlock the corresponding bonus:
Start a Terrorist Hunt game with "Lone Wolf" off. Set the difficulty to Realistic, and use the Killhouse map. Set the amount of enemies to low-medium, then start the game. Make sure to bring C4 for the Assault points. At the start of the map, run up the stairs, and place your teammates at the top of the first flight of stairs. Immediately use the right side of the wall as cover. You should be able to see a rappel rope on the left side of the wall. Next, do one of the following things to get A.C.E.S. points in the indicated category:
Assault
While still in cover, throw a C4 out so it lands at the bottom of the rope. Wait until someone starts to climb down, and halfway down, detonate the charge. This will get you +3 Assault points for each kill. Once you run out of C4, use explosives.
CQB
Just blindfire the enemies rappelling down the rope. Each kill in blindfire gets you +3 CQB points. Alternatively, wait until the enemies reach the bottom of the stairs and start to move towards you. After they are relatively close, pop out from the cover and kill them. This will get you +3 CQB points.
Marksman
Simply shoot the enemies as they are climbing down. A light machine gun is recommended as they rappel down quite often. Each kill while they are still on the rope gets you +3 Marksman points.
Go to Act 5, Scene 1 in Story mode on the Normal or Realistic difficulty. Kill all the enemies on the roof, and go into the building. When you enter the building, you will reach a checkpoint. There will be a staircase in front of you. When you go down the staircase, there will be a door with three terrorists talking inside. Next, do one of the following things to get A.C.E.S. points in the indicated category:
Assault
Open the door, toss in a C4, and detonate it for +9 Assault points. Then, reload from the checkpoint and repeat as many times as desired.
CQB
Use a SMG with a good sized clip (like the P90 or Type 05). Enter the room, run forward a few steps, and shoot all three terrorists for +9 CQB points. If you have trouble killing all of them, shoot the guy on the right first, and then the two facing each other (the guy on the right is the one who usually kills you). Then, reload from the checkpoint and repeat as many times as desired.
In the "Ambush" mission, get to the end where you have to order one of your teammates to defuse the bomb. Order him to do that and stand beside him. He should complain about you standing next to him. Then, have your other teammate regroup, then tell him to throw a grenade at the door in front of the bomb. You should get two kills. Look above you. There should be a person about to go on the turret. If you kill him, he keeps respawing. This is an easy way to get Assault points or any other desired A.C.E.S. points. Note: You will get more A.C.E.S. points on the Realistic difficulty.
In the "Negotiations" mission, once you reach the part where you have to defuse the bomb on the door, have your team hold at the base of the stairs. Then, advance up the stairs, and stand a few feet back from the double doors. Aim at the bottom of the doors, and throw a grenade. Back away from the grenade fast so you do not die. When the grenade goes off, a delayed rumble will occur, and you will get A.C.E.S. points. You will get more A.C.E.S. points on the Realistic difficulty. You will fail the mission because it states that you "Disobeyed a Direct Order", but do not worry -- you will not lose any experience and can just reload the checkpoint at the bottom of the stairs again. Repeat this as many times as desired.
Easy Assault Points
On CQB, take a frag grenade and C4 as your gadgets. With your other weapons you should have an assault rifle. When you set it up, make sure your teammates are in the game, at high enemy level, and it is on normal. When you start, tell your teammates to go to the box in front of you. Then, go to the corner to your right and take cover on that wall. Throw a grenade down at the other end of the building. You should get one or two kills. Wait for another terrorist to appear, then throw the other grenade. You should get three or four kills. Walk out the door to your left then take out your C4. Throw it inside the door to the brick building. Shoot the upper left green box in the brick building. Wait until some terrorists get close to the door. Detonate the C4 and keep doing this until the terrorists stop appearing. Go to the end of the brick and throw a grenade through the doorway. You should get a few more kills.
Choose single player Terrorist Hunt. Make sure you have C4 on you. Choose the Presidio map. Set it to the Realistic difficulty and high density. Make it that so you are a lone wolf. Once done, launch the game. When you start, go forward in the direction you are facing. Make sure to sprint to get there quickly. After sprinting you should see a set of doors. Take cover next to the closest one. After you are in cover, open the door. At the far end of the room there will be a man that will walk by. Kill him by precision aiming (firing from cover). On the left should be another set of doors. Throw a C4 in front of it, but not on it. Wait for one of the doors to open and detonate it. Then throw in another C4 and detonate it. The most you should get is six kills, but it may be lower though. Repeat this to get a lot of Assault points.
Easy CQB points
Go to Campaign or Terrorist Hunt mode and select a sniper rifle as a weapon. Shoot the enemies from behind cover by first targeting them and focusing by pressing R3 and blind firing. If you shoot while the crosshair is larger and red, you should hit with every shot and thus get CQB points for blindfire.
