Modern Warfare 2019 is a first-person shooter single/multiplayer game that features 27 achievements. There are no hard missables, collectable, and other grinds, just story-related achievements but of course even this is not that bad.

We will do this all on one playthrough on Veteran mode and lastly doing Spec Ops as a separate mode so grab or find three mates to work on this. The Spec Ops achievement is easy so long as you coordinate and work together first time, if no friends or mates then good luck with randoms although I experienced good and mid teamwork with randoms so that's a plus but it took a while to find lobby because rarely everyone plays it aside from multiplayer but I do not intent on doing multiplayer.

As for the story just find cover, take enemies one by one and follow the scripted story sequences on Veteran, checkpoints are always prevalent and you won't be doing the frustrating sequence all over again just follow each miscellaneous achievements and you should be good to go.

All images are taken in Realism mode to prove it's possible, you can take Veteran difficulty it won't matter on Realism so here's what you can note:
  • Using checkpoints never voids you earning achievements, so if you mess up big time you can reload.
  • Scripted encounters are easily dealt with.
  • You can come back to any missions since it is replayable and still get the requirement done. If you want to do this game on the easiest for the achievement miscellaneous before completing then do so.
  • All mission achievements are obvious so there is no cryptic solution to it.

One guide did a good job describing on what to do but I feel like that is all there is so I decided to include more context with images and more specific relating to also describing what I do, and also which areas to trigger the achievements. All achievements are in chronological order so even if I miss stuff I decided to arrange them

Part 1: Story I
1) Story - Fog of War, Piccadilly, Embedded, Proxy War
2) Achievements: 8/27
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fog of War:
 Nothing but Net.jpg]
Nothing but Net
Neutralize the 'Fog of War' machine gun with a frag grenade.
Achievement #1: After staying on the left side while killing enemies and regenerating health, you will be on the rail yard area and a mention of MG by your mate. You go up the stairs and then throw the grenade to the machine gunner.

Piccadilly:
 Trigger Discipline.jpg]
Trigger Discipline
Do not injure any civilians in 'Piccadilly'.
Achievement #2: This is basically part of the story even if you fail this won't void the achievement so you should have no problem controlling your shots but make sure to not get killed while doing the other achievement, Circus Tour.

 Circus Tour.jpg]
Circus Tour
Kill at least one enemy while inside The Reading Place, Aural Chic, and both Subway undergrounds.
Achievement #3: Here are locations to look out for:
  • The Library (exit out from stairs and go left)
  • The Aural Chic (by the red coloured building after you turn right from library and go straight to the right)
  • The Subway undergrounds (forward after turning right from library but watch out for the suicide bomber).
It will not count if your not inside those areas so you need to be inside as it says. Luckily the areas are not hidden and they are scripted with enemy encounters so make sure not to die while on realism.


Embedded:
 Play Dead.jpg]
Play Dead
Kill all the enemies in the 'Embedded' field of dead bodies.
Achievement #4: There is a good way around this, you might need to prone to where the enemies are passing from you, make sure to kill them in a rapid pace so you would not get two shot.

 Companion Block.jpg]
Companion Block
Only use one cinder block and bring it to the end of 'Embedded'.
Achievement #5: You only need one cinderblock which is at the very beginning, make sure to also put it at a memorable spot. Before the end on the ladder to the way down you still need to hold the cinderblock and even if you dropped it automatically the achievement is unlocked.


Proxy War:
 Long Way Down.jpg]
Long Way Down
Crash a helicopter by shooting the pilot.
Achievement #6: There should be two helicopters for you to shoot throughout, one saved for the Ashes to Ashes achievement so the first is preferable for this achievement, I recommend either an LMG shown or a sniper rifle.

 Ashes to Ashes.jpg]
Ashes to Ashes
Burn 4 enemies with a single molotov.
Achievement #7: A good area is before the armory a scripted vehicle will appear with 4 enemies, just throw at them with the molotov you have default. Alternatively, there should be at some point helicopter spawning 4 enemies simultaneously but the best way is a scripted vehicle via ground.

 Wild Fire.jpg]
Wild Fire
Take down a flying helicopter with a molotov.
Achievement #8: This may take trial and error but after the gate rammed, an easy way to do this is at the checkpoint after the ramming part of the gate, then position yourself a little bit higher and time your throw to the helicopter, do not worry about messing up because you will save after the gate being rammed.

Part 2: Story II
1) Story - Clean House, Hunting Party, The Embassy, Highway of Death, Hometown
2) Achievements: 16/27
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Clean House:
 Wall Hax.jpg]
Wall Hax
Save Alpha 3-2 from being downed.
Achievement #9: On second floor inside the house you will see a door that an enemy will spray bullets as soon as your team passes through well should be to your last mate so we don't want that, you can reload your checkpoint many times because it saves at the stairs to second floor, do it until Alpha 3-2 does not get shot then you can time your shot carefully for Golden Path achievement later on.

 Golden Path.jpg]
Golden Path
Complete 'Clean House' without being hit using one bullet per threat.
Achievement #10: You must be perfect on this so if you made an error you can always reload a checkpoint. You should not melee the enemies and lastly do not ever shoot the attic lady, which I tried despite not missing all my one shots to enemies.

Ground Floor:
Total: 3 people, inside the area where they are close to each other. I advise just shooting the two while the woman grabs the gun.

First Floor:
Total: 3 targets inside the bedroom, only holding the lady and the other one being her. One guy inside bathroom as the last. I advise just shooting the guy onto the right upon entering who has the woman hostage, then next shoot her after she grabs the gun otherwise you void the achievement when you shoot her early.

Second Floor:
Total: 3 minus one targets if you time your shot for Wall Hax achievement, 1 behind the sofa and the last scripted so you can shoot him before he does.

Third floor:
Total: 1 targets, go to the room to your right and immediately prone before the guy will do so under the bed but slowly.

Attic:
Total: 1 target, let Price neutralize her so if you shoot her you will not get this achievement.

Hunting Party:
 Press BOOM to Defuse.jpg]
Press [BOOM] to Defuse
Blow up 3 tripwires with explosives.
Achievement #11: You only need your underbarrel launcher (B key) to get all three tripwires by destroying them, it takes practice to hit them precisely but reloading luckily never voids this achievement.

 Good Effect on Target.jpg]
Good Effect on Target
Kill an enemy with a direct hit from a smoke grenade.
Achievement #12: This one is very stubborn to earn for me, you can reach to the hospital and kill the enemy on the stretcher on the left room while entering to the corner of him, save 2 at least and you can always refill your smoke from your soldier.


The Embassy:
 Love from Above.jpg]
Love from Above
Destroy 4 trucks with 4 drone strikes before they reach the end of their path in 'The Embassy'.
Achievement #13: You will get to the point of the outside where you use the laser guider while defending the area against trucks and hordes of enemies, aim your laser guider against all four white trucks while making shots count otherwise restart to last checkpoint if you mess up. from the following image here:
1) Drives down to the middle area.
2) Drives to the left area near you.
3) Another truck drives to the middle area.
4) A good seconds and another truck appears driving to the middle.


Highway of Death:
 Driver's Ed.jpg]
Driver's Ed
Shoot the driver of the suicide truck.
Achievement #14: You only need to kill one suicide driver, his truck will contain a boarded windshield so you need to shoot it few times until it breaks to be exposed for you to kill him.

 Pit Stop.jpg]
Pit Stop
Stop three APCs with Hadir's sniper rifle.
Achievement #15: The three wheels on one-sided of the APC is all you need to destroy them, there is four APCs in total and they have six wheels each.


Hometown:
 Two Birds.jpg]
Two Birds
Kill both soldiers with one shot in 'Hometown'.
Achievement #16: At the end of this mission, a scripted part will be played after you call Hadir's phone and all you need to do is sneakily line up your body shots so two Russian soldiers will die regardless of your shot.
Part 3: Story III
1) Story - The Wolf's Den, Captive
2) Achievements: 20/27
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Wolf's Den:
 Hang Time.jpg]
Hang Time
Kill 3 enemies while you are on a ladder.
Achievement #17: There is an easy and cheesy way, by reloading last checkpoint you can repeat killing one hostile until you hit 3 in total but alternatively you can kill them one by one so it should be all good.

 Tunnel Rat.jpg]
Tunnel Rat
Complete 'The Wolf's Den' tunnels using only the 1911.
Achievement #18: Just make sure to line up your headshots and if you miss 1 or 2 just reload if you are into that kind of thing but you will find yourself not overwhelmed so 1-2 enemies in any sections is the case. Make use of cover and other routes so you won't die by being unaware. Lastly, no flashbang and melee also to be safe don't pick up any weapons, additionally you can shoot Omar and then follow the objective to unlock this achievement.

In this video, Thomas goes through the whole level with the 1911 while commentating with text.

Captive:
 Got Something on Your Face.jpg]
Got Something on Your Face
Spit on Barkov.
Achievement #19: Beginning at your first dialogue choices, press both your left + right mouse buttons and you can spit on Barkov's face.

 Dodged a Bullet.jpg]
Dodged a Bullet
Never get hit by the sniper while escaping captivity.
Achievement #20: Pretty straightforward, just reload checkpoint to make sure you don't get hit by the sniper, take cover while shooting enemies, there will be checkpoints throughout. Once you enter the building and killing the sniper of course this unlocks the achievement.
Part 4: Story IV
1) Story: Old Comrades, Going Dark, Into The Furnace
2) Achievements: 26/27
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Old Comrades:
 Hot Swap.jpg]
Hot Swap
Get at least one kill with eight different weapons when completing 'Old Comrades'.
Achievement #21: There should be more weapons as you progress, the last two weapons is at the end of the mission and after this is done you will get the achievement not after using all 8 different weapons. You will first get three weapons in the beginning and then the other five should be what you needed to kill each one enemy with one gun.

Note: Random weapons can be spawned so for instance an M19 (rare drop) or P320 RX is rare so you will instead end up with a Glock 21 but do not worry you will get enough weapons to find and use against each enemies.

Going Dark:
 Lights Out.jpg]
Lights Out
Shut off the power to 4 buildings in 'Going Dark'.
Achievement #22: This is easy, really just shut all of the switch down. Here are the locations:

  • Front Left of the Clocktower
  • Front Right of the Church
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk_h_fGenmk

Into The Furnace:
 Warheads on Foreheads.jpg]
Warheads on Foreheads
Reach Barkov's lab entrance using only drone strikes.
Achievement #24: To get this achievement, do not switch weapons or interact against any buttons, you only need to use your drones to destroy every enemies since it has unlimited ammo but a long cooldown so take cover and make it count, then when you reach to the building the first time you will get this achievement.

 Tea Time.jpg]
Tea Time
Finish single player on any difficulty.
 Out of the Fire.jpg]
Out of the Fire
Complete every single player mission on Veteran or Realism difficulty.
Achievement #25-26: You should get the two achievement after completing the last mission, at any point you get the achievement.
Part 5: Spec Ops
1) Complete 4 operations in Spec Ops
2) Achievements: 27/27
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Spec Ops:
It should also be unlocked even before the campaign but now we worry about this mode we can start with the four missions, each you can start with then clear the other second one rinse and repeat.

 Liberation.jpg]
Liberation
Complete all Special Operations missions.
Achievement #27: Depending how fast you are, you can probably complete this under an hour or 1.5 hours. The operations are straight-forward with some being different likely open-world but doing certain objectives and going from point A to B. The four operations are the only ones that are needed which is listed as: Crosswind, Headhunter, Kuvalda, and Paladin.

You are free to ask help on coop in this guide comment section but please delete your comment if you are done.

Here is one link relating to Spec Ops but Powerpyx have some good tips also so consider that, otherwise I provided a video on what they look like but there is only objectives for you to follow so no other miscellaneous:
Playstation Trophies[www.playstationtrophies.org]

Lastly, Credit to Topham for the four videos down below, I prefer these according to what I watched.
Operation Crosswind
Operation Headhunter
Operation Kuvalda
Operation Paladin
Conclusion:
I think this campaign is fine for a reboot but it doesn't give the old cod4 campaign vibe. Nonetheless, I enjoy doing this difficulty as for the sake of seeing how this plays out. The gameplay feels good and as always nice.

Realism mode in here is easy and scripted. My only annoyance is waiting for a full 3-player lobby to do Spec Ops with randoms but that is done, good luck finding friends for this achievement to help them with.
