How to unlock the First Loser achievement in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - Definitive Guide

Hello everyone, DocHappyHour here. I found a solution to the is achievement and it is very, very easy you will run the course in 20 seconds. So once you get to the area that has the killhouse activate the switch and have your character switch to the Dieselkraftwerk and tag all the individual targets in the killhouse, mind you, you have to have the Dieselkraftwerk on the detonation setting to complete this task. Once you have tagged all the targets in the killhouse and have ended back at the start of the killhouse, go back to the switch and as you activate the killhouse timer once again, detonate the Dieselkraftwerk bombs you tagged on the targets. This will insure that all the targets are dead and you just run thru to the end of the kill house with a score of about 20sec finishing this achievement.

Fantastic solution! This was nearly the last achievement I tried to get on my first playthrough, so the score I needed to beat was much higher than if I had tried to beat it earlier in this playthrough. (The score you need to beat gets progressively higher the longer you wait to beat it.) I don’t know if I could have done it without this brilliant solution. You made it easy!

FYI: To set your Dieselkraftwerk to the “detonation setting” DocHappyHour refers to, make sure the icon in the lower righthand corner of your screen shows a gasoline canister. I recommend you start the course with at least 19 shots in your Dieselkraftwerk. Run through the Killhouse course, tag all “enemies” by pressing the right trigger, and finish the course. Then, when you begin a second run of the Killhouse course, press the left trigger to detonate all the tags you set in your first run of the course. You’ll hear detonations going off throughout the course—which is good! Then run like hell through the course, and you should beat the second best time and get the achievement.

Thanks DocHappyHour! I think I’ll have an extra margarita today on Cinco de Mayo to toast your brilliant solution!

This worked flawlessly. Great work!

There were 21 targets by my count and only 20 ammo for the Dieselkraftwerk but there were two in the middle of the course right next to each other that I tagged in the middle and it worked out fine.

The kill house unlocks after you've returned to Evas Hammer from New York. If like me you returned with an empty Dieselkraftwerk, complete the warhead/section F mission, you can refuel during that. I couldn't find anywhere else to refuel the gun around the sub. I only tagged 18 targets but sprinting through, even with penalties (?) I completed it with a low enough time to unlock the achievement.

So you can only do this technique if you sacrifice Fergus in the beginning?

Here is a few tips if you have a time of 0.48 to beat and don't have the weapon. You can save as you go along and it doesn't effect the time, so if you have a bad shot, reload and try again. Also I threw grenades into areas as I ran towards them and the cleared out most if not all in that area. Make sure to use grenades on the 2 in the "shooting range" area. You need to clear all to get below the time. Lowering difficulty also does not make time change

It’s worth just adding (I don’t think anyone has picked up on it) but you can’t do the Killhouse achievement on your first visit to Evas Hammer because no other NPC has actually set a time yet. You need to wait until you next return to the sub later in the story..

It seems that the best opportunity for the shooting range achievement is first visit to the sub and killhouse achievement on the second visit to the sub..

Absolutely brilliant, and got it the first try. It should be noted in your solution, however, that you only get the Dieselkraftwerk weapon if you chose Wyatt's path at the beginning of the game. It should also be noted that you may not have enough shots in the Dieselkraftwerk to tag all the targets (I was one short and used the pistol for it). You get the Schockhammer instead of the Dieselkraftwerk if you choose Fergus is my understanding.

So for this achievement you have to get the 2nd place score in the Killhouse next to the shooting range on Evas Hammer. I went through using the guide's above 1 minute 29 standard and beat the course multiple times well under 1:29 with my best being 1:00 and the achievement wasn't popping for me.

Now if you are like me and waited till you beat the game to clean up achievements like this and are wondering why you aren't unlocking this while scoring under the time other guides have stated, I have the answer.

After multiple attempts around 1:00 I looked at the top killhouse times and noticed that Anya had a 2nd place time of 0:48. So when the Killhouse is first unlocked the time to beat may very well be 1:29, but apparently that 2nd place time gets less, at least after you beat the game(can't confirm if it changes each time you play missions and come back to the Evas). This makes sense seeing as while you are off killing Nazis everyone else is hanging out in this claustrophobic ship and the Killhouse is probably the most entertaining thing to do.

To reiterate, you must get the 2nd best time in the Killhouse to unlock this achievement, not necessarily beat a time of 1:29 as the 2nd place time changes as you progress to the end of the game. So apparently go for this achievement as early as possible in the game as it apparently gets harder if you wait.

The guy in the room next door with the chalk boards lets you know exactly what time you need to beat. The left chalk board has top shooting range scores, and the right chalk board has top kill house times. Facing the chalk boards, the door to the kill house start is directly to right, past a small stairs leading to an ammo box. For me, the first unlock of the killhouse had a 1st place time of 21 seconds and a second place time of 1min26seconds. My 2nd attempt had a time of 1min 13sec.

You can visit the killhouse at any time you are in Evas Hammer. You have to beat the course in under 01:29. For every target you miss you get additional time at the end but you have more as enough time as long you hit all targets. Take your time and at the end I have over 35 sec left to 01:29.

Kill House unlocks after BJ rescues Grace and her Resistance fighters. The 2nd best time is scaled per difficulty. I replayed my campaign on the easiest difficulty to get to this point since it's not too far into the story. Good luck, everyone!

For this you need to be on Evas Hammer, the submarine that is used as a hub between missions. You can find the Killhouse next to the Shooting Range at the bottom floor of the sub next to Set's Lab. All you need to do is deactivate the trap and run the course a la Call of Duty. If you do this is under 1 min 29 secs you'll pop the achievement for beating the course with the second best score. Good luck beating the top one, it's 23 secs!

The Killhouse can be found on Eva's Hammers and is accessible at any point after completing the second mission of the game. In order to obtain this achievement, you will need to complete the entire course under 1:29. For every target you miss, you will be penalized with additional time at the end.

Use whichever weapon you feel most comfortable with during your run, and be sure to take your time to pick off targets. While there may seem like a need to rush, you really don't have to do so. Once you make it to the end of the course, interact with the monitor that is displaying your time to clock out. If you completed the course under the allotted time, the achievement will unlock.

After the end of the game, I needed to break the record of 46 seconds, unfortunately I couldn’t manage it (50 seconds was my maximum). But I found one trick. We pick up the Dieselkraftwerk, run through the level and place bombs on the targets (in this round it doesn’t matter what time it is). We go into the obstacle course again and explode all the planted shells. Then we just run as fast as we can.
PS There are 22 targets in total on the obstacle, choose any 20 and place shells on them if you have 20 shots left. We shoot the remaining two with our favorite weapons. If you have less than 20 shells, then we improvise, placing shells on targets on which you spend more time.

If you take on this trophy as soon as you get the opportunity to complete the tactical house, you can pass on the first try and become second. The time given is almost one and a half minutes. I calmly walked around with the pistol and shot at the targets.

Addition to the method described above.
A video has appeared online showing how to overtake Shoshana on the list and become first (she passed the line in 18 seconds). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Jvc2J6uVbY

An important addition, Dieselkraftwerk will only be available if you rescue Wyatt at the beginning of the game when you are asked to choose one of the hostages.

The Tactical House is available after visiting Manhattan for the first time.
