KF2 Early Achievements Guide (2015): BioticLab, Paris, Outpost, Manor

This is a translation and paraphrase of a Russian-language achievements guide written in the early days of Killing Floor 2 (guide version 0.2.1, counted as of 3 October 2015). Killing Floor 2 is a cooperative survival-horror shooter about a group of survivors fighting the creations of Dr. Clamely and Horzine Biotech, with Zed Time slow-motion, a large arsenal, perks and skills, many ZED types and a boss at the end. The guide lists each map's achievements and a short survival tactic. At that time the list consisted mostly of map clears and item hunts: 30 achievements, with about 60 more rumored.

For all maps your perks should ideally be at the maximum level 25. For the full modern list see the achievements page.

KF-BioticLab

Icon	Achievement	Requirement
	Open For Testing	Clear KF-BioticLab on Normal
	Limited Contact	Clear KF-BioticLab on Hard
	Restricted Access	Clear KF-BioticLab on Suicidal
	Controlled Environment	Clear KF-BioticLab on Hell on Earth
	Biotics Bling	Collect all trinkets on KF-BioticLab

Map tactic: Best done with a full team. Survive the first wave at the spawn corner with the flower beds (take Medic and Berserker in advance): the Medic hides behind the Berserker and heals him while he fights off mutants. Then move to the "meat plant" hall, which ends in a grinder. Two players hold the door at the entrance to the main hall and the rest spread through the room. Weld doors only when Butchers and Fleshpounds appear. After that you can maneuver downstairs, running in circles, or fight on the upper level in the observation booth, but then you must split into two fronts.

KF-BurningParis

Icon	Achievement	Requirement
	Tower Tussle	Clear KF-BurningParis on Normal
	Seine Skirmish	Clear KF-BurningParis on Hard
	Bastille Brawl	Clear KF-BurningParis on Suicidal
	Arc Action	Clear KF-BurningParis on Hell on Earth
	Paris Plunder	Collect all trinkets on KF-BurningParis

Map tactic: Best tactic is active movement along a planned route (run in circles, herding mutants). The first 3-4 waves can be survived at a bar table at the end of the map by the embankment, near the weapon dispenser (in co-op). When the first Butchers show up, start circling the map, killing small ZEDs and then taking down the big ones (Butchers and Fleshpounds) one at a time. It is easiest with a small team (2-3 players); a full team is more likely to lose most players and leave the rest overwhelmed. It is the simplest and most convenient map for solo play.

KF-Outpost

Icon	Achievement	Requirement
	You Can't Fight In Here, This Is The Control Room	Clear KF-Outpost on Normal
	This Is What Happens When You Meet A Zed In The Alps	Clear KF-Outpost on Hard
	The Shield Doors Must Be Closed	Clear KF-Outpost on Suicidal
	Fear Is For The Zeds, My Little Lord	Clear KF-Outpost on Hell on Earth
	Outpost Offerings	Collect all trinkets on KF-Outpost

Map tactic: The best defensive spot is the area with several snowmobiles (to the left, beyond the perimeter, from the spawn). A full team defends more easily: three cover the passage from the weapon dispenser and the rest cover the rear (the slope down to the gates and the garage entrance with another dispenser). The spawn point is dangerous because it has no retreat routes and some mutants appear on the left, so holding there after wave 5 is practically impossible.

KF-VolterManor

Icon	Achievement	Requirement
	Just Visiting	Clear KF-VolterManor on Normal
	Mind Your Manor	Clear KF-VolterManor on Hard
	Settling In	Clear KF-VolterManor on Suicidal
	Lord of the Manor	Clear KF-VolterManor on Hell on Earth
	Manor Money	Collect all trinkets on KF-VolterManor

Map tactic: In practice this was the hardest location at the time. The best way to survive waves is to defend in the courtyard with a full team. Where possible, run through the manor while avoiding Butchers and Fleshpounds. The map arrived in the 27 May 2015 update with two reworked characters in the spirit of the first KF: Constable Briar and Lieutenant Masterson.

KF-EvacuationPoint

Icon	Achievement	Requirement
	The Suite Life	Clear KF-EvacuationPoint on Normal
	Unsinkable II	Clear KF-EvacuationPoint on Hard
	Bow Movement	Clear KF-EvacuationPoint on Suicidal
	Seas The Day	Clear KF-EvacuationPoint on Hell on Earth
	Point Paper	Collect all trinkets on KF-EvacuationPoint

Map tactic: The best position is the building next to the spawn, the one on the left. Go to the second floor, where the passage to the next block of the building is, weld the door and spread across the floor. The key is to stay near the stairs, where the bulk of ZEDs will come from. The map arrived in the 26 August 2015 update (open beta), with the Demolitionist and Firebug perks and new weapons; the beta ended on 3 September 2015.

KF-Catacombs

Icon	Achievement	Requirement
	A Light In The Darkness	Clear KF-Catacombs on Normal
	This Is No Mine	Clear KF-Catacombs on Hard
	This Is A Tomb, Theirs	Clear KF-Catacombs on Suicidal
	They Shall Not Pass	Clear KF-Catacombs on Hell on Earth
	Catacombs Cash	Collect all trinkets on KF-Catacombs

Map tactic: The map is hard because every light source can be destroyed and you end up in the dark. The best perks for solo are Berserker or Commando, which have night vision. Stay in one of the rooms near the sewer.
