CoD: Modern Warfare 3 - All 12 Coin Locations In Get Higher Mode Here's how you can find all the coins to unlock the Synth-Bust Camo

MW3's retro-styled parkour mode returns with new camo challenges

What is G3T_H1GH3R mode?

Get Higher is the return of MW3's limited-time mode from the 420 event earlier this year, which tasked players with completing a retro-styled obstacle course. Now, the mode returns with a brand-new map to complete. Here you have a 15-minute timer, and you must parkour your way across the course and race against other players for the best time.

Along the way, you can earn three camos: Gridlocked, Shifting Grid, and Synth-Bust.

How to unlock the Gridlocked camo

The Gridlocked camo is simply earned by completing the course for the first time.

How to unlock the Shifting Grid camo

There's a 15-minute timer for the mode, but you must complete the course in under 10 minutes to unlock the Shifted Grid camo. Once you get familiar with the course, you should be able to complete this in well under the 10-minute mark.

How to unlock the Synth-Bust camo

The Synth Bust camo is earned by getting to the castle on the map, which requires you to find 12 hidden coins. Once you acquire the 12th and final coin, you can head up the steep incline to the finish line. Interact with the giant coin slots in front of the portal before entering it, and it will teleport you inside a castle. You'll unlock the Synth-Bust camo as soon as you enter.

The 12 coins can be found in the following areas:

Coin 1

After rounding the first turn, this coin is found in a hole under one of the red pillars that rise and fall. There's only one hole under the pillars, and it's near the left-hand side.

Coin 2

Next, you'll pass through large orange rotating pillars. Once you pass through the second one, take a quick left or right (depending on the side you started) into a hole in the wall to grab the second coin.

Coin 3

Immediately after reaching the third checkpoint, go around the corner and take a quick left to grab the coin before jumping over the next section with the floating green platforms.

Coin 4

You won't find another coin for a while. You'll need to complete the section of the course with the green balance beams, ledge-hang across the green cylinders, and carry on until you get to the section with the large blue pipes. This fourth coin is right in front of the sign telling you to turn right and proceed towards the blue pipes.

Coin 5

The fifth coin is found when you enter the blue container maze. Start climbing and look up for a white GH symbol on one of the containers. That marks the spot you need to reach to find the fifth coin. It looks like the jump across is too large to make, but you can run and jump across to reach the other side.

Coin 6

Carry on in the course until you reach an elevator block that takes you higher up, and you'll come to the section with red spiked cylinders. Wait for the green balance beam to appear, and the coin will be on the beam.

Coin 7

Get to the end of the beam where you just grabbed the sixth coin, but don't continue with the course. Instead, immediately drop down from the end of the beam. You'll need to drop down into the bright pink glowing tunnel. You'll see the coin right in front of the portal that takes you back to the course.

Coin 8

Once you pass the airplane section of the map, you'll have sections with large, fast-moving red blocks trying to crush you. The coin is found on the center beam of the second section of red blocks.

Coin 9

Head through the tunnel with the Departures sign, and you'll reach a second airplane. Instead of going down the plane's exit ramp and carrying on the path, turn right and jump over to the top of the wing, reach a ladder, and you'll be able to drop down and reach a back entrance at the tail of the plane. The ninth coin is inside.

Coin 10

You'll eventually come to a large, orange rotating pillar with a thin green balance beam. Follow the beam until you can drop down onto a blue platform. Then, look down to find a ledge with the white GH symbol. The coin is down there.

Coin 11

This is one of the easiest coins you're gifted. Carry on a bit until you climb up a ladder and cross another green balance beam. The coin is going to be in front of you on the checkpoint platform once you've finished the balance beam and hopped over.

Coin 12

The final coin is just before the ramp up to the finish line. After you reach the 21st checkpoint, you'll be faced with platforms that simply move up and down. Instead of crossing them right away, go to the right side, then drop down and turn around. There is a white GH symbol on the wall with the hole you can enter to get the last coin.
