Guide your way through the treacherous subway tunnel in Metro 2033. Learn stealth tactics, enemy patrol routes, and find hidden supplies to survive.

Alright, we're heading into the subway tunnel now. It's all about staying in the shadows and timing your movements. Keep your eyes peeled for the lamps and the armored trolley.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First, move up towards the next lamp on the left. Stick to the shadows like glue.
  2. 2
    Wait for the armored trolley to pass the guard. Once it's clear, move up, blow out that lamp – quick and quiet – then immediately dart to the right side of the tunnel. This should help you avoid the guard's attention.
  3. 3
    Continue down the tracks and keep an eye out on your right for some sandbags. Move onto the wooden platform there.
  4. 4
    Turn right and drop down to the ground. You'll need to move left to avoid the nearest guard.
  5. 5
    Now, hug the left wall to sneak past the soldiers ahead. Keep moving forward as far as you can.
  6. 6
    Head to the right, then climb the ladder to get back up to the tracks.
  7. 7
    You'll see a standing guard and a patroller to your left, with another patroller on the right. Your goal is to sneak across the metal beam to the other set of tracks. If you fall, you'll end up in the lower area, so be careful!
  8. 8
    Watch the guard on the right. When he turns and walks away, sneak out onto the tracks and follow him, staying to his right side to avoid detection. Wait for him to move further away before proceeding.
  9. 9
    Cross back over to the left side of the tracks and make your way towards the next guard.
  10. 10
    Look for a ramp on the left side of the tracks and go up it. Head through the door into a large room.
  11. 11
    As soon as you enter, check to your right for a supply crate. It's got an Automatic Shotgun, +10 BULLETS, and some other ammo. In the left corner of the room, you'll find a Medkit.
  12. 12
    Finally, open the door under the light to finish this section.
Tips
  • Be aware that you find +5 BULLETS instead of the usual +10 at one point in this section. Keep an eye out for that!
  • The game mentions going to [4.2 Trolley Combat] after this, so be prepared for what's next.
