How to unlock the Super Soldier achievement in Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - Definitive Guide

As with the other DLCs, you need to beat only Volume 3 on Mein Leben difficulty to get the achievement. This is easily the easiest of the Mein Leben achievements. Thanks as always to Kreeper V for leading the way. I adapted his strategy outlined in his video:


Very general strategies:

* 1st commander area: kill the one guard and commander on the way to the exit.
* 2nd commander area: it's hard to avoid raising the alarm. Plus, you'll want the dieselgewehr for commander area 3 anyway. So use the chokepoints at the top of the stairs and on the ground floor to funnel enemies towards your shotguns.
* 3rd commander area: you're in a cramped hallway with an explosive weapon. Go to town. You should have just enough ammo to take care of everyone. If you run out, you have your shotguns.
* Ballroom: Stay up on the vents and do your best to stay stealthy. Only go for headshots when you're confident, especially when killing the dog. I've found that body shots end up raising the alarm, since everyone's already on high alert. You'll know it's safe to jump down when the general says some dialogue about getting to the bridge.

If you do raise the alarm, you can head back to the vent and grenade the crowd that gathers below.

I recorded a messy run, so you can see how to adapt to the reinforcements:

Great vid to have. Not too bad, even the ending you can cheese very hard by backtracking in the vent and using kampfpistole rounds you ricochet down for the heavies. Figured I had to improvised when I got seen, wasn't going to just drop the run there.

The first & third areas were a piece of cake.

The second area will require a bit of patience to get through, quietly. I had most of the soldiers constantly discovering dead bodies, which put them within range of my pistol. Careful shot placement is needed, here. Some enemies will walk directly below you, while others will be much further away. I killed 7 to 10 of them, dog included, until I moved on to the ballroom.

The "Mein leben" difficulty for this DLC is actually available from the get-go. When you boot up "The Deeds of Captain Wilkins," you can toggle the difficulty by tapping until the bar in the lower right-hand side of the screen is maxed out.

On this difficulty, which is actually set to "I am Death Incarnate," you will only have one life. Additionally, you cannot save. This means that if you die during your playthrough, you are sent back to the Main Menu. Fortunately, you are able to pause your game should you need a break.

For high-level tips and strategies involved with this difficulty setting, please refer above to "Army Vet" for more information.

A successful, uninterrupted playthrough on "Mein leben" should take around one hour to complete depending on your playstyle. Feel free to utilize the commentary-assisted video walkthrough below, courtesy of KreeperV.

NOTE #1: For an additional video walkthrough, there's also THIS GUIDE by nekov4ego. Thanks for the excellent walkthrough, nekov4ego!

NOTE #2: This Episode works similarly to "The Adventures of Gunslinger Joe" in that you are returned to the Main Menu after completing a Volume. Once again, don't worry...once you have completed Volume 1, you can still die on Volume 2 or Volume 3 without needing to redo already-completed Volumes. Keep in mind that you cannot shut off your console in between Volumes as this will wipe progress.
