So, I know I can't be the only one who decided to boot up CoD4 and give a go at the Mile High Club on veteran after seeing Brad struggle through it for four hours. And yeah, it's hard, but I'm feeling pretty good about how I'm doing after only a few runs. I can constantly get up the stairs, and after that it's kind of toss up about how far I get.
 
I'm curious to hear other people's experiences and general strategies. How are you doing, and how are you doing it? I personally feel knifing bathroom guy, flashing the first room and using the pistol as much as possible early on is key, but other than that I've been playing by ear. I'm sure I'll get a more solid pattern down if I continue, though having already beaten it years ago, I don't have much motivation to go much longer.

I had a go and it took me roughly 15 minutes.

That's less skill though and more the fact that over the years I've done it for myself and 3 of my friends.

Got that shit down son.

Oh and when you get up the stairs, just flash and fucking peg it across that hallway.

Got it 4 years ago, I see no reason to put myself through it again :P

It was pretty simple. My friend did it for me.

I got it in 09 I think. I didn't attempt it until until Dec. 2008, I got to the end after 2 hours, shot the dude in the leg not knowing, raged like fuck, then didn't attempt it until Feb '09 when I got it. I got it entirely with the pistol until except for when I was in combat and switched to the MP5 instead of reloading. I found it much easier with a pistol. I kind of want to play it on PC now to see how easy it is compared to using the 360's game pad.

I have already put myself through that hell, no need to do it again.

Is there any chance we'll see this and Brad's reactions uploaded later for those of us that are too cheap to don't have the money to pay to see this stuff?

Yeah, I don't want to do this anymore. Good thing I already have the achievement though, so I can back out without shame. Damn shotgun hallway.

Did it in about 30 minutes back in the day, but hey, I was using videos. Bradly was going in raw.

Going in raw AND ignoring the helpful advice provided by Norm (and Patrick, of all people). Brad was reasonably skilled at aiming, so there was really no need for that to take 4 hours without success, except that he only made one or two minor changes to his plan early on instead of the major changes he needed.

Anyone know how many deaths Brad got to? When I left he was sitting on 411.

So did he ever actually beat the mission or what?

I don't think I actually completed the campaign in modern warfare so hahah

Finished on a 3rd try.

1st floor is the most difficult part because flashbanging after the airplane hole event might not blind everyone.

Fuck that level.

That is all.

So I decided to give it a try again. I hadn't ever really tried before because I always assumed that it was beyond my patience level. After about an hour of getting decent runs in (and a lot of cursing in as well) I got to the last bit after the stairs and got one MEGA flashbang off for the very last room. It hit every enemy and I just booked it past them with no bullets left in the clip (barely squeezing by.) My jaw was on the floor as I got a perfect headshot off on the last enemy and preceded to collect myself after jumping out of the plane with the achievement unlocked notification popping up.

I feel like I got a big weight off of my shoulders. I was never serious about Mile High Club but it felt good to get a genuinely difficult achievement without spending too much time on it.

Did it after a few hours 4 years ago

I reckon it took me 50 attempts with no help at all. Felt good to complete it.

I did it a while ago. Only took me around 15 minutes.

Got it a while ago, and I actually really enjoyed it, played through it quite a few times, I like the fact that there is almost no margin for error.
