A lot of people are posting the same theories and mixing up the emblem with the COD4 one. The COD4 one, which is shown below is obtained through the Spectre IV challenge completion:

THIS IS NOT THE EMBLEM IN QUESTION. The emblem we're trying to unlock is this one:

According to 402, this emblem is obtainable in the game without hacking or modding. Proof of him saying this is shown on his Twitter account as well as the pictures below:

So now that you all know what emblem we're looking for, here are some of the THEORIES that people have thought of and proven to be wrong. Also, no one has obtained this emblem without hacking the game.


THEORIES IN THE TRASH:

Complete all Prestige challenges: FALSE. This is not the way to unlock the emblem and here is YouTube proof of someone completing all of them - [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnM-kZud2QQ"]Complete all Prestige Challenges[/ame] (Start the video at 1:05 to see proof)

Complete all Challenges in the game: FALSE. Even people who use JTAG to get all titles and emblems do not obtain the spinning skull emblem. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=510BC0Tq76k"]Complete all Challenges[/ame]
The game doesn't know the difference between hack and legit.

All Achievements Unlocked: FALSE.
100% Completion on Campaign, Spec Ops , Multiplayer (1100%): FALSE.
YouTube proof for both: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VClFA6kaMak"]Complete all achievements and trophies[/ame]

1000 AC-130 kills: FALSE. Like I said before, that unlocks the COD4 emblem. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnWtFys1fIs"]AC-130 + COD4 Spinning Emblem[/ame]

1000 Nuke kills *Not call in 1000 Nukes*: FALSE. YouTube proof: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMpUTGpG-Gk"]1000+ Nuke Kills[/ame] (Average kills with a nuke is say 6-9 per game. This would take approximately 112 nukes but if you want to be realistic and say 6 kills per game, you would call in about 167 nukes)

X amount of Days/Kills/Wins: FALSE. We have all seen the leaderboards, which is flooded with hackers that have over 100+ days of gameplay, killstreaks, or win streaks. YouTube Proof: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ei4d_pWdHHc"]X Amount of Days Played, Kills, Wins[/ame]

Get killed by an AC130 1000 times: FALSE (Thanks to You must login or register to view this content.-Thank him You must login or register to view this content.)

[ame=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqJLxTbTuP8]YouTube - 1000 AC130 Deaths[/ame]

Complete all HIDDEN Challenges: Hackers have pretty much found all of the hidden challenges in the game and completed them. The game doesn't consist of many hidden challenges and even if it was a hidden challenge, then modded game lobbies would unlock every challenge despite it being hidden.

So there's the few theories many of us have gone through in order to get this emblem, and thus far, we're pretty much out of luck and ideas. Hackers have looked into the .csv (game codes) to find something that may stand out, and so far the only thing they found is the following:

"level 70 and pr_marksman_ak47_4"

You have to be level 70 to unlock the AK47, unfortunately the Marksmen challenge only goes upto 3 (III), which doesn't help us at all.

It also doesn't have anything to do with any of the DLC content as 402 said that the emblem was obtainable on the PS3 way before the first DLC came out.

Post any new theories you guys have. We're going to find out how to get this emblem!

Also, please refrain from posting theories that have already been proven wrong. We need NEW ones.

Remember the forum rules. For your convenience, I've posted a link to them:

Well the odds are against infinity ward to honest with you. About 10 million people play call of duty if not more. Out of these ten million players no one has found a legit way to unlock the emblem. I find it hard to believe that out of all of these players no one has managed to find out by now. So by the odds infinity ward is full of sh*t.

Was in a game of snd yesterday and this guy had it, i pm'ed him but he didn't react ofcourse. he wasn't even 10th prestige i think so that's one less requirement. garf2b is his psn, so if anyone can get him to talk:whistle: Oh and btw he's a mod here too...

I'm pretty sure he was just in TheUnkn0wn's challenge lobby.


Has anyone tried combining the 1000 accolades with every challenge completed? That could be a possibility.

I wonder what else it could possibly be. Fourzerotwo said a while back that it would be something that required dedication, but I think almost anything that requires dedication has already been theorized and proven wrong.

What i think :
1/ IW missed up the coding and wont admit it.
2/ 402 don't know how to unlock it , I think .
3/Certain amount of Multikills with the AK-47

Most likely IW screwed up the coding. I think its becoming more obvious now. Game has been out for like 9 months and millions of people dont know how to get it legit, yet IW says nothing.

I defeated!
Plus all the "hackers" say that its not possible since the coding is screwed up.....So i think IW is just trying to fix it, or maybe they dont give a damn. Honestly people care way to much about a pixilated spinning gold skull on a coin...
