Metro 2033 Achievement Guide

This guide is a very descriptive guide about the game. I'm not planning to repeat exotek here. For achievements regarding diary pages or moral points or any specific details, take a look at his guide.

OK, so I started off with Survival Mode on Normal difficulty, because I enjoy this mode more that Spartan, and I thought that I can still get most of the achievements here while exploring and enjoying the most of the game.

Put on your mask & press G until you get it.
When you get to the surface and still inside the station, kill incoming watchmen as much as you can from a safe distance. Restart the checkpoint & repeat this until you get it.
I got it outside of the station when they attack, but I guess if you restart the checkpoint a couple of more times when you're still inside the station, you can get it there as well.

At the end of the chapter when Hunter comes, stay in the middle of the room when nosalises attack, rotate, aim, shoot, repeat. :)
That's pretty much it. It's easy to headshot when they're still inside the vents. Restart the checkpoint whenever Alex asks you if you're ok and you haven't got the achievement yet.
You can kill about 10 nosalises each time you restart the checkpoint, and you only have a revolver. You need 100 kills for both achievements. Do the math :))

Check the guide mentioned at the beginning.

A little while after the beginning there's tunnel on your left with two lurkers inside. Reload the checkpoint until you get it.
When you get to the end of the tunnel, you enter a bandit hideout. There's a tripwire after the second door.
There are around 10 bandits here. kill them and reload from checkpoint a few times.
I got it after killing the second mutant on the bridge.
After the hallucination part, there's drop to a room where there is a safe. This is the third safe box in the game. I reloaded checkpoint a couple of times for each.

No achievements.

After getting separated from Bourbon, the room containing the second key is a radioactive hotspot. Stay there for a minute.
There's a demon after getting out of the building. Kill it twice.

Story related. Can't miss.

Sold out my guns and ammo to reach up to 1000 MGR.
After that I bought VSV, Hellbreath, and Hellsing with a couple of attachments for each.

with 4x scope on Hellbreath, shot the nazis from the other side of the bridge.
Kill the nazi to free the prisoners.
Since I bought Hellbreath and VSV at the Armory...
reloaded checkpoints a couple of times, but I got it eventually.
Killed everyone. Then restarted the chapter.
Don't kill anyone this time. Just knock'em if you need to.

No achievements.

Killed the guard with Hellbreath.

No achievements.

When you climb up the first area to the surface, a demon grabs a nazi in front of a building. There's a ladder on the left side of the building. There's also a mechanical digger or a crane or whatever, under the ladder. Climb up to the roof and go inside the shack with a satellite dish on its roof. There's a radio inside. Play the tape.
Alternate route: walk up inside the building, through the nazis.

Don't kill or knock anyone.

You need to perform transactions with an ammo dealer as much as possible.
You need to perform transactions with a weapon dealer as much as possible.

Had to restart a checkpoint once. Gotta kill 30 enemies with flamethrower.

My last gun was Abzats. The one before that was the Flamethrower.
Spiders come when you go through the blast door and become alone. There are two rooms with spiders. If you don't get 10 kills on the first go like me, reload a checkpoint once.

Kill 5 Amoebas. They're green-ish/yellow-ish spheres that explode when they come close to you.

Check the guide mentioned at the beginning of this guide to see where the notes are.
Since I picked survivor mode, I got Survivor achievement first. I had to start another playthrough for the Spartan.
let the countdown finish and do nothing.
Reload from checkpoint as soon as getting the achievement.
shoot the homing laser.
