Detailed walkthrough for Metro 2033's 'The Ground Level' section. Find loot, avoid traps, and overcome glitches on your journey through the tunnels.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Return to the platform where the man was executed.
  2. 2
    Go to the back of the platform by the lamp and jump over the break in the railing.
  3. 3
    Get onto the pipe, then onto the duct below the pipe.
  4. 4
    Go left and use the platforms along the wall to get onto the pipe.
  5. 5
    Go right, then left at the intersection. Jump over the gap to the other pipe.
  6. 6
    Go right and use the platform against the wall to get up onto the duct.
  7. 7
    To avoid open fighting with Fascists, go left and loot the body by the other wall for a Shambler with a Nightvision scope and a Gas Mask.
  8. 8
    Jump onto the platform beneath the duct.
  9. 9
    Use the pipe to climb down to the ground underneath the tracks.
  10. 10
    The skeleton near the bottom of the pipe has a filter and a four-barrel Duplet.
  11. 11
    Go right towards the Red side and follow the path through the rubble to a hidden camp.
  12. 12
    Check the three skeletons sitting around the campfire, the crates, and a supply case for BULLETS, arrows, Medkits, and Gas Masks.
  13. 13
    Exit the rubble and go right. Look for a helmet and grab the bullets from the hand to its left.
  14. 14
    Stay right, go around the rubble, disarm a trap, and grab the BULLETS from the hand sticking out of the rubble.
  15. 15
    Head towards the Fascist's side. Follow a path through rubble with four wire traps.
  16. 16
    Disarm or jump over the traps and go into the pipe.
  17. 17
    Climb up the ladder on the right, remove your Gas Mask, open the gate, and climb up the ladder on the left.
Tips
  • REDUX RHC: Each corpse has +1 BULLET instead of +8.
  • REDUX RHC: You find +6 BULLETS instead of +??.
  • GLITCH: A checkpoint glitch can occur when entering the large pipe before the second ladder. If you reload, the game may enter a permanently paused state. To avoid this, continue playing to the next checkpoint at the top of the stairs after dealing with the Fascist and Red prisoners and going through the green door.
