Wolfenstein II The New Colossus Mein leben Run without Weapons upgraded

I decided to put this up as a Guide for anyone who wanted to try this Challenge.

This is a Mein leben run where I do not upgrade any of the Weapons or Grenades. I have put it up as a guide for anyone else who wants to try this and even though I would not advise it...It's still worth doing if you are after a good challenge.
Be warned, from New Orleans onwards its much, much harder to put down the NPC's from a distance and you'll see me using the Laser on Shotgun Dudes because firing the Rifles at a distance is like throwing Popcorn at them.

The game was a long slow Grind at times as my main Tactic was Survival and a last minute change of tactics i.e. choosing the Diesel Weapon gave me the edge over the Heavies I needed at the start of the final battle. After that I managed to fight off the regular NPC's leaving only the two big Robots and they took a loooong time to put down...

This was an Epic run from Start to Finish with plenty of Holy S**t moments.

Would I do it again? Hell No!!!

All of the strategies are my own with the exception of the Courthouse...Here I use the Abyss strategy that I have tweaked to my own Game Style.

Thanks to Twitch Gamer ZamatarGwent for suggesting this run...

if you have any questions please post a comment.

The Art works you see are created using screen shots taken in the game and I use Paint Shop Pro to edit.

Thanks for taken the time to read this.

This section is outdated as its from my first successful Mein Leben Run, but its still sound advice.

This is the original Mein Leben Run this guide refers to.
https://youtu.be/e3ke__lCNvk


Practice, practice, practice, especially areas you are weak on. Study other people's strats but don't rely on them 100%. They may not work for you and If things go FUBAR make sure to have picked a good camp spot and just hunker down and keep blasting.

Area 52


In area 52 I tried stealth but I always fell down on the elevator ride, I begin by eliminating the guys in the station, then lower the train and wipe out the rest.

As you can see my Strat is Stealth the train ride and crash into the station. I stay on the train and deal with the guards and the Two Heavies before hopping off.

After I top up my health etc I start the elevator ride. Here you have three Heavies and two bots to take care of.

First robot comes up on the left followed by two Heavies and a final Heavy up top.
Stay put as I do and wipe out the guards with a scoped rifle. Now normally when you kill the last guard the commander walks into the top right room after a minute or so.
This time he took for ever but I eventually nailed him. I found if you moved up passed where I was he called in reinforcements.

In the area where you plant the bomb I axe the first commander then from the stairs I pistol the two guys talking. Then crouch walk to the bottom of the ramp and pistol the guy who walks up, next it's the robot followed by the commander and his doggie and then the last robot.

Then I shoot the glass out in my goto spot as I got caught out by it previously. Next I plant the bomb trigger the Big Bot and retreat upstairs and snipe off everyone and finally nail the robot.

When you finish the next area you can always come back and top up health, guns etc before moving onto the farmhouse.


Courthouse... The Abyss strategy.

Make sure you arrive here with as much health/armour as possible. Head for the Big gun as I do and blast away until the Heavies arrive. Try to get the shotgun because it's handy for the doggie. If you make it upstairs you have an excellent chance of surviving. Just be ready to blast the first Robot and then snipe off the rest with a scoped rifle.
For the last three Heavies use grenades to get them to walk up the stairs for an easy kill.

Bienville Street...
I think this is one of the hardest parts of the game. Just work it section by section as I do and you'll make it.
After I axe the first two guys they are discovered, stay camped at the railing as I do and once the Heavies are dealt with its just a matter blasting away until the commander runs to you.

In the next area I use the explosive barrels etc to alert the enemy and pick them off from a safe area. Here again watch for the Heavy guys and Robots.

In the sewer I stay in the tunnel and kill all the guys who walk in front of me. After the commander runs up and I kill him I top up everything before dealing with the last few Bots and guards who hang out near where you drop into the sewer below.

Venus...

The only part I could stealth fully is the room after the conveyor belt ride. Try to have six axes for here to silently kill the guards.

Timing is very important and having enough axes so you don't have stop and pick up is very important. Pick up the axes after you have cleared the area.
My preference for the conveyor belt is shotguns. The ricochet is handy for dealing with the last guy if he's further back. Just keep blasting to the left and you'll get him.

The rest of Venus I go loud and take my time...With this strategy I'm 99% certain I make it off Venus.

If you have lost all your armour there is a health pack in the room the commander playing music was. But when you exit the lift to the last area if you blast the first guy with armor piercing it's possible to get upto thirty armor from him before dealing with the last two guys.
Then just stroll in and head to the globe and blast it, walk forward and duck down an exit to get codes.

Make sure to get the ramshackles and the easy upgrade mission. Being able to regen armour is a big plus for the final level.

My strategy for the final level is camp out and snipe off the enemy. I use stealth where I can and I don't move on until Everybody is dead, it's a slow but sure method.

Final big battle.

Like others I use the double shotguns. Make sure to reload after each pair of Heavies. Once you get into the H-shaped room it's a matter of running around blasting the guards until no more come in. Then laser the two big Bots from cover. When BJ starts talking all that's left is climb the ladder and stick an axe in the generals face and then feel free to get up and go mad because you have done it.

Congratulations.

4K Mein Leben Run

This Kill em all 4K no HUD Mein leben guide is maybe, just probably the Ultimate Guide for those gamers who want to take Mein leben that bit further or maybe you just want a good challenge, so here it is in wonderful 4K.

Will this guide become the Ultimate guide...maybe, that's up to the viewers but I did have a lot of fun recording it.

There are no written rules for a Kill em all run except you have to kill every NPC possible from start to finish, some you can't like the guys going up in the elevator after you plant the bomb in Oberkommando for example and what about Mr H in the audition you might think? Well The run would be over if I did that of course.

I’ll be using a combination of Stealth and raising alarms in the run and where I do side missions to get a Contraption I will kill them all there as well. Remember when you do an Uberkommander mission during a Mein leben run it is the only time you can return to the Hammer if things go wrong.

Each and every time I do a run I always find something new, In the second part of Manhattan outback where the Heavy drops into the subway, he failed to appear and there are a few other examples in the run as well of odd things happening so keep an eye out.

I have the OSD system stats and date & time showing.

[Back Yard Gamer]

I used to turn off/disable as many of the background services I could when I used a GTX750ti.
This would free up some ram and give a small boost to the game.
Best of luck

[ZcyTeck]

Used this guide for the courthouse on terror-billy, as my setup is very bad; laptop. Lags a lot and not the best graphics... Kikely going to use it more, if ragequitting moments occur in the future.

Thanks. And good job

[Back Yard Gamer]

I have added the latest play lists for both times lines.

[Back Yard Gamer]

I'm going to add more updated vids because I have Tweaked my tactics a bit.

[Back Yard Gamer]

Glad it helped and I must tidy up around here

[ArcticMule]

Thanks mate!

[Back Yard Gamer]

Congratulations on getting the trophy and I'm am glad the guide helped you. I have been caught in that vent with a grenade a few times.

Most weekends on Twitch [twitch.tv]I do a Mein Leben run for fun.

Best of Luck BYG

[Zoé]

Thank you for this guide! I just beat Mein Leben on my first attempt!
Well I have practiced for a while learning the route and safe strats. I pretty much followed what you did except for the last 2 fights because I already had strats and back-up.

Only 2 frightening moment overall :

. At the beginning of the last level. When you're in that vent up above the room. One soldier threw a grenade and I saw it at the last moment, I backed up just in time and survived with 30hp 0 armor (I was full)

. When you take the pod with Anya. After killing the heavy that land on your pod. You have to take a jump to the fan. Just when I was jumping BJ got stuck on the edge of the pod and lost all his momentum. I quickly did a 180° mid air to land back on the pod. My heart skipped a beat. It would have been a shame to lose the run to this jump....

Thank again for the help
