Guide to Metro 2033's Behind the Nazi Frontline (3) mission, covering Hedge-hopper and Rescue Ranger achievements, and Moral Points.
Walkthrough
- 1To obtain the Rescue Ranger achievement and a Moral Point, knock out or kill only the Fascist standing over the three seated men. Killing the Red prisoners results in losing a Moral Point. You also lose a Moral Point if you let the Fascist execute the Reds.
- 2The Rescue Ranger and Hedge-hopper achievements are mutually exclusive. You can earn the Rescue Ranger and Invisible Man achievements together if you knock out the Fascist instead of killing him. To get the Hedge-hopper achievement, you must kill the Red prisoners.
- 3For the Hedge-hopper achievement, use a hand grenade (press TAB, then LEFT) to kill the Fascist and the Red prisoners. If you kill the Fascist first, the Red prisoners become invulnerable. Toss the grenade into the cell and quickly take cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) (position yourself behind an object to avoid enemy fire) so the Fascist guard doesn't kill you.
- 4Alternatively, for the Hedge-hopper achievement, you can wait and hide until the Fascist executes the middle prisoner, then kill everyone in the cell.
- 5To the left, you will find three Throwing Knives in a wooden target board.
- 6Open the red wall locker to find +8 BULLETS, a Gas Mask, and a Medkit. Note that in a REDUX version, you find +1 BULLET instead of +8.
- 7Go into the side passage and turn off the generator.
- 8Proceed through the green door.
Tips
- Remember that the Rescue Ranger and Hedge-hopper achievements cannot both be earned in the same playthrough.
- If you aim for the Rescue Ranger achievement, ensure you only incapacitate the Fascist guard.
- If you aim for the Hedge-hopper achievement, a well-placed grenade is key, but be mindful of the order of operations.
- Looting the red wall locker provides essential supplies, including a Gas Mask and Medkit.
