Does anyone know any good strategies for getting the Hammer Time and Ghost Patrol achievements?

Also, where is the Ghost located on Longshore? I can never seem to find it.

for hammer time it should be fairly easy as there isnt the rush for hammer that there once was. i recommend heading for camo then dropping down for the hammer, then grabbing the bubble shield from below rocket spawn. dont forget; it doesnt have to be a spree, just 5 total in the match.

for the ghost kills, grab the ghost (!) then use the guns on it to kill three people. it's pretty easy, im not sure what sort of tips i can offer. dont go for splatters if you dont need to, and keep away from rockets (or make sure your team has rockets). the ghost is located to the right hand side of the attacking team spawn, near the sniper. the main base's ghost is to the left, near the shotgun spawn.

edit: maybe find the ghost first in forge so you definitely know where it is

Thanks. I got Ghost Patrol. Haven't had a chance to try your tip for Hammer Time yet.

Hammer Time is relatively easy.

Just kinda wait for people to come to YOU, what I did was find a nice, concealed spot and waited for someone to drop on by me. Then, WHAM!
