This achievement is for 10 captures of the npc character in submission gametype which is a territories variant.
This is easy to do with some patience. After 2 captures, one per round, the game will end. Therefore it takes a minimum of 5 games to get this achievement. But as other people go for captures too, this is unlikely. Tell your team you're going for the achievement and they may allow you to get it, or alternatively, play with a group of friends and take turns getting captures.
During the matches, rush for the meatflag and get him down. Grab him and make your way to the ending area, which moves when the other team captures it, and is random. When dragging the meatshield, you are more protected than normal, and a good player can take down several attackers one at a time with the starting pistol and melee hits. The rest of the team should be scouting and protecting the rear to grant you safe passage, so if they aren't, tell them to.

Newer updates have allowed the option of unlocking this achievement in Social xbox live, meaning you can choose the submission gametype and have the match populate empty slots with bots. But apparently you will need all the available dlc packs to unlock this achievement via the social route.
They most likely changed it because the release of Gears 3 took away even more players, on top of the already low amount of people playing Submission. |

With the latest Gears of War update (update 6), you can get this achievement easily by using "Social Xbox Live". You do not have to do it in a ranked match and with Social Xbox Live, the game will automatically start with Bots if it does not match you to enough or any players. Social Submission takes away the hassle of finding other players who actually play Submission.
Simply select this option in the drop down in Multiplayer and choose Submission in the Game Type drop down. From here start your matchmaking and with any luck you will get Bot players or only 1 or 2 human players. Once the game starts, capture the meatflag and drag him to the end location.
Bots are difficult in Social Submission but might be easier then doing it with expert human players.
NOTE: If playing with other players you will get the full experience that you would in Ranked. If playing only against bots you will only get a certain amount for winning. You ALSO REQUIRE ALL MAP PACKS to play this mode. |

As noted that you can just play Social and play against the bots, but here are some tips.
- Only play social if you see 2 or 3 human players playing, thats ok. Anything more than that, than its like playing a regular match, and will make it harder to get the submission. Plus matches go much faster, playing against humans can take forever! Sometimes almost going a full 15 minutes in some rounds.
- Play at night I mean late at night, if you have a day off the next day and don't have anything to do, Try to stay up till 3am. I'm in central time zone in the United States, I honestly got about 8 out of my 10 submissions at around 3 to 4am. For a couple of reasons. I would get host almost all the time and hardly anyone else is playing which means bots only. Every now and than 1-2 players will join, which is fine as stated above.
- If you have the meatflag and you down a bot/player don't kill him. The longer they are downed the longer it takes for them to spawn and potentially try to kill you and take your meatflag. You want them crawling they can't harm you that way.
I did this without any help, I didn't have any teammates helping me which would of been a big bonus, but doing this alone is very possible. I was averaging about 4 submissions an hour, sometimes I would get a submission in back to back rounds, and others took me a couple of games to get one.
GOOD LUCK! |

This online achievement in my opinion, is the hardest one to earn in the Multiplayer Game Type Mode!
To earn this achievement, you need to play a lot of Submission Matches. Submission is basically a game which is like Capture The Flag, but instead of having 2 flags for each team, a stranded person, placed on the map is your target. He's a meatflag, and in order to win, one of you on your team needs to take him hostage, and carry him to a certain destination on the map, marked in a circle. Once the player and the meatflag stay in this circle for about 5+ seconds, they become the winner of the round, and will score a catch. First team to score 2 successful catches wins.
In order to get this achievement, you're going to need to get a total of 10 Meatflag catches. This means that you in person, must successfully, pick up the meatflag, take him to your destination and score and win a round. This game mode is really tough, and requires teamwork, a lot of skill, patience, stragedy and plans. This game mode will require a bit of time to do, so I strongly suggest you get this game type done first, then you won't have to play again!
Tip 1: Having friends, or a party/boosting session is actually quite handy, as all of you on your team will vote for the Submission game type, and work as a team towards getting the "Beat The Meatflag" achievement". This achievement can be done alone, if you wish, but remember, that in order to earn your achievement, you'll have to fight to carry the Meatflag!
Tip 2: Epic have recently changed the game type selection mode to automatically allow you to play Submission matches, without voting for it! You used to have to vote between Guardian and Submission, and everybody always votes for Guardian, because it gains a lot of EXP Points! If however, you want to play Submission on a Map Pack, you've got to still vote for it as it's featured under "Guardian/Submission On Map Packs". My advice is that, if you're in a game type and it features 2 gametypes, and one of them's Submission, have a go and vote for Submission. The more successful Submission matches you get, the quicker you can attempt in getting this achievement, done!
Tip 3: If an opponent is carrying the meatflag, throw a smoke grenade and he will drop the meatflag. You must be warned that the meatflag will be automatically revived, and he can shoot and kill easily at this point!
Tip 4: A meatflag will be automatically revived, everytime he gets dropped. You must watch out, because his shotgun does sting!
Tip 5: A strong suggestion in winning these game modes is stick together. Whilst one of your teammates is carrying the flag, the other teammates, should stick together with him, and hold off the opponents, or plant traps!
Tip 6: There is a way in Submission matches, you can pick up a lot of EXP Points, but you will definately need friends/party to do this. The trick is to grab the meatflag, take him to an area on the map, then drop him by switching weapons, shoot him, and pick him up again. Rinse and repeat. This will give you a lot of EXP Points, but you will have the opponents attempting to stop you from doing this, so you'll have to set traps, or get teammates to protect you! If you do plan to do this, I highly suggest you take turns and go for a certain amount of points, then win or loose! If you do it too much, the host may quit, and you'll loose everything you've done in that match! Due to the latest title update, a round will last for a total of 15 minutes!
Tip 7: If you spend too long in attempting to capture the meatflag, the destination, where to take the meat will change! |
