What does Heat Stroke camo look like?

The supplied BO3 catalog tile for Heat Stroke is led by yellow, gold and red, producing a mid-toned, low-contrast finish. Use the artwork shown here to confirm the exact texture and pattern placement instead of matching it to a similarly named camo from another Call of Duty title.

How do you make progress toward Heat Stroke?

Work in Multiplayer and follow this recorded requirement: Earn 20 Headshot medals with assault rifles, SMGs, LMGs or pistols; 20 One Shot, One Kill medals with shotguns or sniper rifles; destroy 20 scorestreaks with standard launchers; or get 60 kills with the MAX-GL, a Special or a melee weapon. Keep the progress separate from Multiplayer mastery unless this record explicitly belongs to that ladder.

Heat Stroke is tracked separately on each weapon. The class-specific objective is: Earn 20 Headshot medals with assault rifles, SMGs, LMGs or pistols; 20 One Shot, One Kill medals with shotguns or sniper rifles; destroy 20 scorestreaks with standard launchers; or get 60 kills with the MAX-GL, a Special or a melee weapon; finishing the tier on one gun does not complete it on another.
