In Black Ops 7, unlocking every camo for the M8A1 is a real grind that tests your mastery of the weapon across every mode: multiplayer, co-op, zombies, and Warzone. Each mode has its own objectives, and if you really want to complete the collection, you’ll need consistency, precision, and a bit of stubbornness. Here’s how to progress quickly and smartly.
Your first step is the basic military camos. In multiplayer, you need 80 headshots, so you’ll have to stay precise, aim high, and keep your cool. In co-op, the numbers climb with 250 critical kills, and in zombies it gets even more intense with 1,000 critical kills. Warzone adjusts the challenges to fit its more tactical pace, but the logic stays the same: aim cleanly and survive long enough to stack useful kills.
Once the military camos are done, you can move on to the special camos, and that’s where things get technical. In multiplayer, you’ll need 50 kills with a magnified optic, 15 long-range eliminations, and even multi-kills in a single life. This is all about control and survival. In co-op and zombies, the challenges shift depending on loadouts, enemy types, and how quickly you chain kills. The game clearly pushes you to vary your playstyle.
Then come the most stylish steps: Gold, Diamond, and ultimate camos. You unlock Gold once you finish all special challenges, often by getting a certain number of specific eliminations or securing difficult killstreaks without dying. For Diamond, you need to complete the Gold challenges on every weapon of the same category—in this case, every tactical rifle. It’s a massive time investment, but the result looks incredible. And if you want to push even further, there are legendary camos like Chromatic Flux, Singularity, and others. These require 100% completion across every weapon in the game. It’s the ultimate proof that you’ve no-lifed Black Ops 7 harder than anyone else.
