Time To 1k - 10-15 Hours
Ease Of Game - 4/10 (Manageable, patience required)
Number Of Playthroughs Required - 3 (difficulty achievements do not stack)
Total Number Of People Needed To Boost Online Achievements - 4 (technically it can be done with two, and five people is recommended)
Notes:
Each difficulty requires a separate playthrough. You cannot select the last level and play it on whatever difficulty you are going for (a la Bourne Conspiracy or Blacksite). Fortunately a playthrough is less than three hours, this is a VERY short game
All your kill/weapon stats carry over to the next playthrough. Say for instance you start the game on the hardest difficulty and only get 40 headshots. If you get 10 more on the next playthrough you'll still get the achievement
Most of the online achievements can be done in Player Matches with just you and a friend, but four of them are Ranked. To start a Ranked Match you need four people in the lobby for it to begin. The best way to boost this game is to have a party of 4-5 people, HOWEVER if you only have yourself and a friend there still is a way to boost. Both of you join a ranked match with other people, find a nice hidden corner of the map, and have one kill the other until they win the match.

Frag Out! - 25 points
Kill 20 enemies using grenades (Single Player)
Simply get 20 kills by throwing grenades at enemies. Enemies love to bunch up in certain levels so this will come pretty fast during a playthrough.
Now THIS Is A Knife - 30 points
Kill 30 enemies using kill moves (Single Player)
To get a Kill Move, get close enough to an enemy until you see an on-screen prompt telling you to press A. Get 30 kills in this manner for the achievement.
Never Knew What Hit Them - 20 points
Kill 50 unalerted enemies (Single Player)
An unalerted enemy is an enemy that has no idea of your presence. On your on-screen radar they will be indicated by a Green Diamond (Yellow means they are suspicious and Red means they know you are in the area). Kill 50 of these enemies either through Kill Moves or a headshot with a silenced weapon.
Improv - 25 points
Kill 20 enemies using explosive objects (Single Player)
The levels are filled with explosive objects: flammable barrels, gas tanks, fuel containers, exploding crates, and vehicles. When you see an enemy near one of these, shoot it until it explodes. Get 20 kills in this fashion for the achievement.
Guns Don't Kill People, SEALs Do - 25 points
Kill 30 enemies using sniper rifles (Single Player)
The Dragunov is the Sniper Rifle in the game. Get 30 kills with this gun for the achievement.
Supressing Fire - 25 points
Kill 20 enemies using blindfire (Single Player)
Blindfire is when you are up against an object in cover and press the Right Trigger to fire the gun above your head. Try to move your aim cursor towards the enemy's head for a headshot to get easier kills. After 20 the achievement will pop.
Are These Guys For Real? - 30 points
Kill 50 Spetznaz. (Single Player)
A Spetznaz is a Russian soldier in a black facemask and camo fatigues. Kill 50 of them for the achievement.

Migraine Breaker - 50 points
Kill 50 enemies with head shots (Single Player)
Aim for the skull of every enemy you face until the achievement pops.
Gang-Bang - 35 points
Kill a group of 4 enemies with a grenade (Single Player)
The four enemies must die from a single grenade explosion, it will not count if you throw a grenade near an explosive object and the explosion from that kills the enemies
NOTE: The best place to get this is on the DOY mission. There are several instances of four enemies standing together, but the ideal chance comes towards the end of the level. There are three missiles you have to attach bombs to, with the last one being in a closed off room.
After you put the bomb on this missile, a metal door at the end of the room will slide open and four enemies will run out towards you. Throw a grenade at the bottom of the door while it is opening and the explosion should kill all four just as they run out for the achievement. If you miss, kill yourself with a grenade and try again as the checkpoint is right before you put a bomb on the missile.
Dick Would Be Proud - 35 points
Complete a mission without dying (Single Player)
Go through an entire mission without dying. Best done on the SNAFU level during your Recruits playthrough.
Military Budget - 30 points
Kill 5 enemies with an assault rifle without reloading or changing weapons (Single Player)
You must get 5 kills with an assault rifle, never switching guns, throwing grenades or using Kill Moves in the process. The best way to do this is go for headshots every single time as they are a one hit kill, as this will give you extra bullets in the clip in case you miss.
Come Get Some! - 20 points
Kill 5 enemies with a shotgun without reloading or changing weapons (Single Player)
Very similar to the Military Budget achievement, only the shotgun has much less ammo than the assault rifle so you really have to make every shot count. Fortunately the shotgun has a very wide burst at close range, so pretty much any shot that hits an enemy will be a one hit kill.
Ninja - 20 points
Perform 3 Kill moves in a row (Single Player)
On the SNAFU mission the first three enemies you see will have their backs turned to you. Simply sneak behind them and do Kill Moves on each for the achievement.
Curb-Stomper - 20 points
Perform 5 Finishing moves (Single Player)
A Finishing Move is when an enemy is lying on the floor still alive and you walk up to them and get an on-screen prompt to press the A button. To get an enemy to lie on the ground shoot them in the torso or stomach several times until they fall down and start shooting at you.
Chop-shop - 20 points
Destroy 10 vehicles (Single Player)
To destroy a vehicle shoot the front of it until it starts on fire, and it will blow up a few moments later. Do this with 10 vehicles for the achievement
Over The Top - 5 points
