How to unlock the Survivor 2033 achievement

    Firstly select survival mode when starting a new game. The main differences between survival and spartan mode are:

    - Limited resources ( I however didn't notice much difference with regards to this)
    - More intelligent A.I. (I noticed some stealth sections became a bit more difficult)
    - Maximum of 20 minutes gasmask filters (on spartan I believe you can hold up to 30 minutes worth)

    When playing through try to search as much as possible for ammo/supplies. Also aim to preserve ammo by going for headshots on enemies or avoiding combat entirely.

    Below is an outline of levels with tips on how you can avoid combat and preserve your resources for mandatory battles. There are SPOILERS.

    Warboy925Believe it or not, the hardest level for me was Level D6, not because of the enemies, it because I ran out of filters after the computer room (I had to restart from Church and try again).........The whole game was easy as hell in this mode......the only real trouble spot for me was after leaving the building in Outpost, and I died like 3 times in Dry, other then that Survivor 2033 was a cakewake

    InugamiTheHoundyeah i remember after Depository and Archives I was out of ammo and filters. To make things worst I choose wrong guns for the last couple of missions when I played it normal. I hope when I play it on survival I can do way better especially with air filters because trying to scramble for air filters on D6 and beyond was a huge pain.

    GruntfireWhen dealing with the spiders, you can kill them by shinning a flashlight on them.

    HellSpawnCF42To save on filters, especially on D6, take your mask off for 6-8 seconds at a time. You can feel the damage building up a little, but if I put the mask back on when my character takes a “big”, deep breath, it was fine. Never ran short on filters again. Rinse & repeat, as necessary (not while in a firefight)

    Darth Hawk CZLeave this for the second playthrough so you know what to do and where to go. This was so easy. I always had full ammo, I was using ,,premium" ammo for my assault rifles for multiple enemies coming at me, because they catch fire and die more quickly. In the end, I still had around 600 ammo left with no scavenging whatsoever, just picking up what was in my way and full ammo for all of my other weapons.

    Also, in D6, there is a stash of filters right behind the door of one of control rooms, I think it was in the engine room, where you use the crane afterwards. I ended the game with 15mins of air left.
