100% Achievement Guide (2025+ Methods)

For 2025 and beyond, this is your definitive guide to unlocking every achievement in Black Ops Multiplayer. We've updated the strategies to reflect current methods, making it easier than ever.

In The Money Achievement Guide

Achievement Description: Finish in the top 3 in a Wager Match game 5 times.

---

(Multiplayer Requirements)

Note: If you haven't played multiplayer before, you may encounter issues starting a Wager Match. The error message may incorrectly suggest downloading a map from the Steam store. To resolve this, simply reach Level 2 in public games to earn COD Points. Afterwards, you can create private Wager Matches using the method below.

---

Solo Achievement Guide

1. Enable the console in the game settings.

2. Navigate to: Play > Wager Match. You'll likely receive a "could not join match" error.

3. Open the console using the "~" key and enter the following commands:

\g_gametype gun

(press enter, then type)

\map mp_nuked

which should start the match.

4. Once the match has started, input these commands:

/party_minplayers 1

(Allows the game to start with a single player) (press enter, then type)

/scr_gun_timelimit 0.1

(Reduces round time to 10 seconds for quick rounds) (again, press enter).

5. Restart the map using

/map_restart

to apply the command changes, this should start a match that will timeout within 10 seconds, and then auto-loading into the next match.

6. Simply wait 5 rounds for the Achievement to unlock.

I found some really old form from 11 years ago and it turns out its due to being connected via Ethernet and not Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi worked for me
