Hint: Difficulty Trick
If you want to beat the game on Insane Difficulty but are having trouble, try the following. Start each chapter on Casual Difficulty after having unlocked Insane Difficulty. Then, before reaching the final checkpoint on any given chapter, switch the difficulty over from Casual to Insane. Then, finish the chapter. The game will record that you’ve completed that particular chapter on Insane Difficulty, even though you played a vast majority of the chapter on Casual Difficulty.
Unlockable: RAAM

Hint: Eleven Executions
Apart from the 15 weapon kills (all of them are in the manual, aside from the Troika and Boomshield), the unique executions are probably the hardest things to figure out. You must have an opponent on the ground and crawling to do these executions. Luckily, you can do them on any mode (campaign, horde, multiplayer, etc.). Anyway, there they are:
- Curb Stomp -- BLUE button with any weapon.
- Punch Combo -- YELLOW button with any weapon (except the ones listed below).
- Neck Snap -- press GREEN button to take an enemy hostage, then context action to snap necks.
- Any weapon (except the ones below w/ RED fatal) -- RED button fatality
- Longshot -- YELLOW button fatality
- Longshot (alternate) -- RED button fatality.
