WARNING: Contains spoilers! Also 80 images!

While there are a few existing guides on Steam covering achievements and secrets, they never helped me as much as I would have liked. Additionally, I generally prefer image-based guides over video guides. If you like video guides, the secret part of this guide is not for you.
So I figured I'd just make my own guide to help future hunters and player to get achievements. Hope you enjoy it!

Story Achievements
You'll unlock these achievements as you play the game. There are also a few unmissable achievements in the Misc section. The difficulty achievements will unlock as you complete Act 3. If completed on a higher difficulty, all lower difficulty achievements will be unlocked at the same time.

Operation Quarterback
Complete Act 1


Operation Archangel
Complete Act 2


Left No Man Behind
Complete the game on Casual


My Rifle Is My Best Friend
Complete the game on Medium


Harvester Of Sorrow
Complete the game on Expert
Kill Achievements
Worlds Apart
Take a successful shot from a distance of 1 km or greater


I don't remember exactly where to get this, but it's the most achieved achievement, so you should get it early on. Regardless, your rifle scope displays the current target distance.

Psst, Don't Look Behind You
Kill 15 enemies with a stealth kill


A stealth kill is done by getting close to an unaware enemy and pressing the required button to perform it. It displays the required button in-game, but it's E by default on PC.

Distance Matters Not
Kill 20 enemies from a distance of 600m or greater


When you scope in on a target, the distance will be displayed on the screen. You should get this during a single playthrough. There are a number of distant snipers you must shoot in the campaign.

Fisher King
Kill 25 enemies using thermal or night vision goggles


You learn how to use thermal vision during the first mission. I believe the default button is V on PC.

Say Hello To My Little Friend
Kill 30 enemies using your sidearm


You will be given a sidearm on every mission alongside your primary sniper rifle. It's pretty easy to get kills with it, especially at close range.

Kill With Still
Kill 50 enemies while holding your breath


While scoped in on an enemy, you can hold shift (by default) to hold your breath. This holds your scope steady and on lower difficulties, slows down time to allow easier shots.

Death's Scythe
Take 50 headshots in single player.


Should get this within a single play through of the campaign. On lower difficulties, a guide circle will slowly appear showing you where to aim to hit your target. Use this to help get this achievement if you're having trouble.
Misc Achievements
Laugh This Off
In the final duel with Maddox, kill him with the first shot ("No Loose Ends")


This is the very last thing you do in the campaign. After killing the mortar crews and elite snipers, you'll have to take out Maddox himself. He appears at one of three windows pretty much straight across from your position. You have to quickly shoot him before he ducks back out of sight.

If you miss your shot on the first attempt, pause the game and restart the last checkpoint. You go right back to shooting at Maddox and have the chance to get the achievement again.

Hazardous Materials
Kill three or more enemies by shooting a grenade


I didn't put this in the kill achievements section as I believe there's a specific place to get it. During the first mission, you'll be told to find a grenade to shoot at. There is a group of two people standing around with a third coming to join them. The third has a grenade, so wait for him to join the other two before shooting at it.

Nerves Of Steel
Achieve 100% accuracy in any single player mission


Pretty simple if you pick your shots carefully. Give it a go on Casual difficulty to have an easier time with the additional aiming guide and slow motion while holding breath.

Bullets Can't Hurt Me
Complete any act without using medkits


Pretty easy on the casual difficulty. The first act should be the easiest to complete. Just make sure you don't accidentally press the medkit button (Q by default). If you're having serious trouble with it, you should be able to unbound the button in the settings. An act consists of multiple missions and Act 1 has three missions.
Also, nothing here saying you can't die during missions.

I Never Bleed
Complete the Campaign using max one medkit per mission


On casual, you should be okay to go without any medkits at all for most, if not all of the campaign. You can go for this at the same time as "Bullets Can't Hurt Me".

Karma Chameleon
Retrieve your weapon without being detected ("Burning Bridges")


At the start of the mission, you lose your primary weapon during the cutscene. If you follow your spotter's instruction as you progress, you should be okay. You may be able to load the last checkpoint if you get spotted and repeat the nearest area again.

Guardian Angel
Rescue the friendly ("From Out Of Nowhere")


You should get this naturally during the specified mission in Act 2.

Nemesis
Kill Maddox once and for all ("No Loose Ends")


You'll get this one at the end of the game when you get the shot on Maddox.

Balls of Steel
Complete any single player mission without using med kits, but taking damage


You should get this while going for "I Never Bleed". If you don't take any damage throughout the game on your first attempt, you're probably too godlike to be playing games.

Solid Sandman
Kill all enemies in the beach houses without causing an alarm ("Leave No Man Behind")


This is during the third mission in the first act. Doing this on Casual will give you the easiest time. You should be able to load the last checkpoint if you or a body get spotted.

Back To School
Kill all enemy snipers in Sniper Alley without being hit ("Ghosts of Sarajevo")


This one isn't too hard as long as you be careful and don't peek the snipers for too long at once. It's easier on Casual as you can mark enemies and have the additional aim guide.

Hangman's Knot
Kill Major Vladic ("And Justice For All")


You'll actually get this achievement as part of the story during the specified mission.
Multiplayer Achievements
NOTE: This game, being as old as it is, has a pretty dead multiplayer scene. However, you should be able to create your own server with a friend and go for some of these. You should be able to find someone else on the internet also going for them, so ask around the steam forums or some of the 100% groups.

World Warrior
Participate in any multiplayer match


Pretty simple. Just load into a multiplayer game.

Unhappy Camper
Kill 10 opponents in multiplayer using your sidearm


Shouldn't take too long if you're just grinding with someone. Otherwise, definitely easier with a highly populated server.

Bloodstreak
Kill 25 opponents in multiplayer


Pure Ownage
Kill 50 opponents in multiplayer


The Sniper Elite
Kill 100 opponents in multiplayer


Just a bit of a grindy one. Unlocks over multiple games, of course.

Kill That F**ing Band!
Take 25 headshots in multiplayer


Blood and Tears
Take 50 headshots in multiplayer


Another easy one if you're farming for them, just get other players to stand really close before taking your shot.

Wrath Child
Win 10 Team Deathmatch rounds


Death Dealer
Win 25 Team Deathmatch rounds


Each round is based off the game timer and the winner is highest points by the end of the game.

U Can't Touch This
Win 5 rounds in a row in Team Deathmatch


Absolutely easier with a friend. Just take turns winning the 5 consecutive rounds.

Everything But The Kitchen Sink
In one multiplayer round kill an opponent with a sniper rifle, sidearm and melee attack


Again, super easy with a friend. E is the default for performing a melee attack.

Enter the train through the door closest to the objective and find the secret right at the end.

Secret 4
When you enter the underground station, turn left towards the objective.
The secret is on a small table across from the place in which you hide.
You either have to be quick, before the enemies come around the corner, or just accept your fate and be killed. (Collectibles stay when you die)
- And Justice For All
Secret 1
Inside the first building, after taking out a few enemies, follow Maddox and Merinov upstairs.
They will pause on one floor saying they need to go up another.

Go through the arch towards the statue.

On the platform with Diaz you'll be told to shoot a gasoline canister to distract enemies.

Shortly after you'll go up a path that splits into two.
The objective wants you to go through the arch on the right, but go left here instead.

Right after being attacked by an enemy in a cutscene and saved by Diaz, you should see an overturned bench in front of you.

@staticsnake Thanks for those additions! Hopefully they can help people out further, if needed!

@Khodyrov Nope! I don't own any of the DLC available in the store.

No DLC needed ?

For "Hazardous Materials" there's a good spot in Act III: Bad Karma too, where this guide lists secret 2, that section where you gotta take out the guards in a room with a giant statue, there are 3 that gather in the middle and one has a grenade.
staticsnake 27 Dec, 2024 @ 6:59am 
For "Kill With Still" you have to actually hold the button. I'm used to other games where you click it to activate, and it didn't occur to me I was doing it wrong.

For "Nerves Of Steel" I replayed Mission 1 in Act 1 on Casual, and I kept reloading last checkpoint any time I made an error. It still counted after completing even despite numerous reloads.

For "Bullets Can't Hurt Me" I replayed the last mission and for some reason I got this. So maybe you can just get away with only doing the last mission in spite of it saying Act and not Mission in the achievement details.

Also for the Secrets, it seems to remember the ones you've previously picked up and found, so it doesn't seem like they all need to be found in a mission in one go.

A nice guidebook

A supplement for medkit achievement: if you die and the game reloads a checkpoint you get full health! I tested. So far I1m in Act III on Expert and never used a medkit.
