This guide will 100% get you the one free bullet achievement.

Getting the achievement

The achievement: The one free bullet!

How to get the achievement?

To start off you first need to start from the begining of the game from fresh.

Firstly after you start the game, you'd need to go through the whole story of the game without using any weapon except only one bullet to open a padlock on a gate after going through the vents. The next thing is that if you are needing to take down the gunship, use rockets to kill it.

You are allowed to use rockets to kill and destroy the combine car that shoots rockets at you.

Then just keep going through the game until you get near the end where strider is and kill that with rockets. Remember to always use gravity gun mainly through the game.

Once getting to the train, few minutes you should get a achievement pop up 'The one free bullet'.

Weapons allowed said by community

• Gravity gun
• SMG Grenades and hand granades

• Crowbar

  and auto mounted guns

You can use rockets, but make sure to not shoot them direct and shoot near the target.

Apparently I got this achievement and don't really have much of any memory of doing it. Guess it wasn't that bad.

No way I just wasted 2 hours just to not get the achievement for some fucking reason

[Yousek]

That's fucking dumb that i have to waste time on act 1 where only weapon is gravity gun ... and of course alyx disappear due to checkpoint loading after the train.

I did everything exactly like it's discribed here. Still didn't get the achievement. I used only one bullet, never used rockets on anything aside from strider, car and a gunship. Is it broken?

[professional autist]

mfs it literally says rocket kills are allowed on the achievement

Good guide

[Rylander02]

Rockets don't seem to count when hitting vehicles (gunship or the armored car). Sorry that this came a few weeks after this probably would have been helpful randomidk.

[randomidk]

[BabyZzz]

Appreciate this guide!

[artorigusknight]

does the crossbow aim is considered to be a shot?
