Our top tips for survival:
  • Be vigilant, listen to the sounds of your environment, you never know where the next threat is coming from.
  • Manage your filters and Bullets - these are scarce resources, don't spend them too quickly, make decisions with your survival in mind.
  • MGR is ammunition as well as currency, spend it wisely.
  • There are 2 endings to Metro games, your choices matter.
  • There is no shame in running if you need to.
  • Pick your weapon loadout based on Ammo, we wouldn't recommend having 2 weapons that use the same ammo type, unless you have a death wish.
  • You do not have to kill everyone... something to think about.
  • Explore and scavenge. Sometimes the most surprising things can be found this way.
  • Immerse yourself in the story and let it take you on a journey, you will not regret it.


Feel free to ask the community and us any questions you may have, we are always happy to welcome new survivors to the tunnels, and other Spartans are on hand to lend a hand!
