How to unlock the Survivor 2033 achievement in Metro 2033 Redux - Definitive Guide
- 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.
There are a few key elements of this mode:
-Fewer resources available
-Difficulty increase in enemy AI
-Air Filters carry only 3 minutes of Oxygen maximum
My advice for this mode is to take your time, search for ammo and try to sneak through sections as much as possible. When you have partners try to let them take on most of the enemies whilst keeping yourself safe. Often Nosalises and Watchmen will ignore NPC's and go straight for you, so be careful. I recommend attempting this after your first playthrough and are comfortable with the mechanics.
Once you have completed a full playthrough on this mode, the Trophy will unlock.
Within Metro 2033 Redux, Spartan Mode and Survival Mode attempt to alter the game slightly, providing distinct gameplay modifications that both satisfy an action-oriented approach to combat and a more tense survival adventure. When starting a new game, you will be required to choose which mode you want to play. Take note that neither of these modes dramatically effect the behavior or intelligence of the AI; such modifications are reserved to the base difficulty settings (Normal, Hardcore, Ranger, Ranger Hardcore).
In Spartan Mode, ammo, filters and other resources are more plentiful. In addition, the combat and stealth experiences are more action-oriented. On the other hand, Survival Mode drastically limits the amount of resources available and offers deadlier combat and more challenging stealth. This encourages level exploration and wise conservation of ammo and equipment. Overall, neither of these modes will prove to be too difficult so long as you play the game on Normal. Each achievement will unlock at the end of the game when you escape the dream-like sequence with the Dark One before deciding which ending will suit the current playthrough.

Self explanatory, simply complete the game in Survival Mode. In this mode, the gameplay is more akin to the original Metro 2033 experience. You move, reload and aim slower, filter capacity is noticeably lower, general supplies, ammo and other resources are a little more scarce. In terms of difficulty, it's not a big difference from Spartan.
If you didn’t complete something during your first playthrough, you can easily load any chapter. After completing all the trophies, you can start playing the game of "survival"
