How to unlock the Wyatt saved achievement in Wolfenstein: The New Order - Definitive Guide

At the end of the first level, you will need to make a decision that slightly affects how the rest of the game plays out. One of the options will lead to saving Wyatt, and thus this achievement; the other will net you
Wolfenstein: The New OrderFergus savedThe Fergus saved achievement in Wolfenstein: The New Order worth 39 pointsChoose to save Fergus


I would recommend going for the "Fergus Saved" achievement in your first playthrough.

The differences between the timelines are lock-picking and armour upgrades if you save Wyatt, and hot-wiring and health upgrades if you choose Fergus. There are also a couple of different people to talk to in some of the bits between major levels.

The reason I suggest saving Fergus in your first playthrough is the health upgrades. On many levels you can get a permanent +10 bonus to your health; the equivalent on the Wyatt timeline just increases the amount of armour you get from each armour pickup, but the 100 total can't be increased, and armour is plentiful on most levels. There are 10 health upgrades over the various levels, which can thus give you a base health of 200.
This can carry over into your Wyatt timeline playthrough if you use the Chapters option instead of starting a New Game - selecting New Game will reset your progress on everything, including collectibles and perks, but you can use the Chapters option to jump into the alternative timeline with all perk and collectible progress retained.


EDIT: It would appear that this achievement is glitching for some people. The achievement tracking on Xbox One is reading 1 of 1 requirement completed, but it is remaining locked for unknown reasons. I believe (and hope) that this will rectify itself in time, as the systems is clearly showing that the gamer has done what is required, and there have been numerous cases of X1 achievements unlocking days or weeks after the requirements have been met.
All the same, be aware that this has happened to some gamers, and consider saving Wyatt first, then immediately replaying the first level to save Fergus and then continuing that timeline for the benefits outlined above.

EDIT #2: This has now popped for everyone who I'm aware of it glitching for.

Nice to know about the Fergus bonuses staying with you if you replay chapters and run thru the Wyatt timeline instead of starting a new game. Thanks for that info!

I'm assuming there's no way to change storage devices or something to get this at once?

Not that I'm aware of. If you were really wanting to get both achievements as soon as possible, play the first level up to the part where you make the decision them restart the level. It's not the longest level in the world. IMO, Both timelines are worth playing, so just let them come naturally. But go with Fergus first :D

Haven't heard of any problems with this achievement, but one of my friends did struggle with the one for 25 gold items. He finished the game, collected all 50 and still the 25 item achievement didn't pop s although the 50 item one did. The 25 item one eventually popped a week later whilst he was doing something else. Hopefully this will happen to you. Not really anything else you can do. :(

Ya man, I'm having that same problem. I need to save Fergus because I saved Wyatt already and it just won't pop the achievement. I tried saving Fergus a bunch of times, but that didn't work and then I saved Wyatt a time or two to see if that would work and it didn't. The last thing I'm going to do is get the rest of the achievements I need and then uninstall the game and see if that works.

Guys call MS and tell them about your issue.

I created the case number 1257150111 With them. Without everyone Calling, they think that its only a single person with this issue and wont bother correcting it. You can provide my case number for reference.

Yeah I tried everything to get this to pop & it still hasn't. Uninstalled the game, deleted my saves and started over again. Nothing. Very frustrating, b/c it genuinely a very good game.

Good to see that this is starting to pop for those whom it glitched for. I can see Shotobushi, Jukemate, Norpothos, Damian254 and AnthonyS2011 have all had the achievement pop at last. Don't know whether marklynx's case helped but good to know for the future in case it did.

The "not popping" is not a bug/glitch, its by design on the Xbox One, as a part of some kind of verification process. This is from Xbox.com:

In some instances, you may meet the requirements to unlock an achievement but not immediately receive a notice or update to your gamerscore. The Xbox Live service validates the unlocking of achievements and, though rare, delays can occur. Don’t worry – your progress has been recorded and the achievement will be awarded shortly, usually in less than 24 hours.

I had already gotten the Fergus achievement and replayed up until this point to get the Wyatt. I was able to pause and quit immediately after the cutscene after choosing Fergus the next time.

After resuming it went right back to the point before choosing so I bet that would have let me get both.

So if you haven't done these yet I recommend pausing immediately after the cutscene which follows choosing one or the other and quitting to main menu then resuming!

Looking at both your profiles (Jukemate and Shotobushi) I can see that this is actually an achievement where progress is tracked - ie. in both cases TA has a green tracking bar that says 1 of 1 = 100% complete.
Following this, I suspect that it will pop for you guys eventually, as your Xboxes are registering that you have completed the requirements, and X1's seem to have some kind of function that checks for un-popped achievements every once in a while (don't really know, but the number of people who have had glitched achievements randomly popping a week or more later whilst watching a Blu-Ray suggests this might be the case). Here's hoping...

It is possible to save Wyatt for the achievement and then open the pause menu before the checkpoint saves allowing you to select restart latest checkpoint and then choosing Fergus for the other achievement.

You need to be quick to pause the game, usually as the camera is panning over BJ and the men but before the checkpoint is saved as you will have lost your chance. Make sure the achievement pops in the pause menu and if it doesnt wait a second or two more and keep trying before you get the checkpoint.

I recommend you saving the one you dont want to affect your story outcome first and then quickly restart checkpoint and save the one you do want. This saves you having to replay level 1 all the way through.

Just to make it easier After you make the choose There will be a cutscene press cn_X twice to skip it and immediately press cn_start to pause the game wait a second and the achievement will pop restart checkpoint and do the other one as simple as that just pause the game immediately after the cutscene

Great guide, was hoping I didn't need to play through again. Definitely think you should add I Mr's comment to the guide as that helped immensely

This method still works! I got both the achievements last night using this method. Please note that the person you choose is the person who is going to die.

After choosing one (Wyatt or Fergus) a cut scene will play. I recommend letting it play out until the Dr walks to the door and tells one of the 4 guys to stay behind. Just before the Dr walks out the door he will pause briefly and then say 'Goodbye' (in German).

From there, pause the game and the achievement will unlock in the pause menu. If not, then resume the game and pause again after 1-2 seconds. As soon as the achievement unlocks, restart last checkpoint and make the other choice. Happy Hunting!

If you want to save both men just restart the level after save wyatt, and then pick to save fergus this time, it does not take long to this and am playing it on uber difficulty smile.

Near the end of the first chapter, you and your squad are captured. Deathshead gives you a choice to sacrifice Wyatt or Fergus. Move cross-hairs over top of Fergus(right) and press square. Trophy pops.

The other solution is exact. Once you are captured, your equipment and shirts are taken and you are held face-down on the floor. Fergus and Wyatt are across from you and Deathshead makes you choose who to kill.

What's not mentioned is that at this point an autosave is triggered. Once you make your choice a small cutscene plays and then another autosave is triggered, meaning you cannot exit the game, reload, and pick the other one to earn both trophies. If you are only doing 1 playthrough, you can save yourself a lot of time replaying the whole chapter by exiting the game when you're first being held on the floor, right after the autosave, but BEFORE making a choice. Back up your save to the cloud or a USB, reload the game and make a choice. Then exit the game, copy over your save backup and then reload the game and save the other character. Now you have both trophies with just a couple extra minutes of work, instead of replaying 95% of chapter 1.

At the end of Chapter 1 you will have to choose who will be tortured to death. To unlock this trophy, look to the right and press over Fergus' face.

At the end of Chapter 1, Deathshead's Compound, you will eventually meet Deathshead and be forced to save either Wyatt or Fergus. Take note that the soldier you "choose" through the button prompt will be the one who dies. Thus, if you choose Wyatt, you will save Fergus, and vice versa. 

You can always unlock the opposite achievement by replaying Chapter 1 at a later time.

Description is similar to the previous trophy

If you plan to play through the game only once and get both trophies for choosing, I recommend the following sequence:

Before we are allowed to choose who to leave alive, we leave the game. Then we copy the saves to a flash drive or cloud storage. Then, go into the game again and select the one with whom you would like to continue playing. Let's say Vaita. We watch the cutscene and get the trophy. After which we exit the game and copy our saves back. We go into the game and choose someone we didn’t want to play with anymore, say Fergus.

As a result, we get both trophies in one playthrough.

You don’t need to copy anything, you can just start the level over again, this is almost the very beginning.

even easier! After you have chosen the first one, watch the splash screen and immediately launch the checkpoint and select the other one!

Receive after saving Wyatt in the first chapter. Wyatt's storyline allows you to upgrade your character's armor. For the first playthrough, it is recommended to choose the Fergus line to improve health. This will be very useful when replaying on UBER, and after that you will be able to select the Wyatt line to improve the armor through the selection of chapters.

When there is a choice scene, Wyatt will be on your left and Fergus on your right.
