Not a Hero

The Normal play of the free Not a Hero campaign: the salt-mine hub and its three shutters, nine files, ten coins, two bosses and Mission Accomplished.

Not a Hero is a separate campaign with its own saves, played twice for its two trophies: this section is the Normal play, section 15 the Professional one. You start with a pistol and a shotgun. The mine is built round a hub, the Central Cavern, with three coloured shutters: the red one gives the filter you need for the green one, and the green one gives the night vision you need for the third. Nine files and ten Antique Coins are the pickups that count; two of the files are already in your inventory at the start, so examine them before you set off. Once the Shield Machine in the hub opens, the hub and everything off it are gone for this play, so clear all three shutters first.

White Molded and RAMRODs

White Molded only die to RAMROD rounds, the special pistol ammo you find around the mine; on Normal one shot to the chest drops one. The first one you meet, in the red shutter's work room, can't be killed at all: stun it with a grenade and get on with the puzzle. Shoot ordinary Molded in the head to stagger them, then punch them to save ammo.

About this guide

Three runs of the main game: a full run on Normal for every collectible, a fast run on Easy under four hours with few Item Box openings and few First Aid Meds, then Madhouse with its own coin layout. Runs 1 and 2 take different serum choices, as the guide says. The four DLC are separate modes from the main menu, playable at any time. Each area closes behind you as the story moves on, so take everything before each point of no return.
