    How to unlock No Matter What - Survivor

    Please see "The Last of Us - Survivor +" for details in how to play your second playthrough on Survivor+ difficulty.

    Survivor is the hardest difficulty offered in The Last of Us. It won’t be unlocked from the start so you will need to beat the game on any of the other difficulties first. Some of the main things that make survivor more difficult are the fact supplies are a lot rarer and enemies have better hearing/awareness when you try to stealth. Also note that the Listening ability is disabled so you can’t "view" or "listen" on nearby enemies through walls. Enemies generally go down in the same amount of hits as Normal for example, and there aren’t more enemies added to areas. '

    Please refer to our Survival Guide for some general tips to keep in mind when playing on Survivor. Included in the guide are also some strategies on how to get through some of the harder sections in the game on Survivor difficulty.

  • just finished the game on survivor, my normal and easy trophies popped, i already had hard
  • i just started playing survivor. this shit man, im a quarter of the way done and ive found in total like 14 bullets. its gonna be worth it though cause this game is beautiful
  • @2: same here, thank god for the unlimited checkpoints hehe
  • i just beat both survivor and survivor+ and they both stacked for me. had to wait a couple seconds for the normal and hard trophies to pop up ans the survivor difficulty isnt even that hard if u know how to play.
  • Helllpppppp!!! This is my third time trying to finish this game on survivor and I get to the hotel in chapter 4 and it glitches! Either won't load chapter data and or weird things happen, no track dialogue, strangling hunters that stand there like mannequins after I strangle them. Or the weirdest, going into levels that look like white space! This is killing it for me being that it's the hardest setting and working my way up to chapter 4 to find it glitches is slowly killing my hard on for this game! Uggggg
  • so basically due to an INTERNAL glitch, I could NOT do a regular SURVIVOR game it basically stalled at the HOTEL in Pittsburgh for the 5th time!! so frustrating.. I had to do what I did when i was getting the HARD trophy, so went into a game plus and selected SURVIVOR GAME PLUS.. so like when I get to the that portion i had basically NO AMMO, NO HEALTH.. you get the picture.. brutal..I have to work myself all the way up until the FIREFLY LAB and then RE DO all the chapters previous to PITTSBURGH in order to get all SURVIVOR PLUS chapters, but at this point after the 5th and will be 6th time I can basically do it in my sleep with all that being said.... this has been the WORST nightmare ever!!
  • does this trophy unlock The Last of Us - Easy +, Normal +, Hard + and Survivor + trphies ? please someone reply if it doesn't i won't beat the game on each one.
  • @7 you have to beat it on any diff first so lets say you beat it on hard easy, normal & hard will unlock now if you play on survivor before hard+ you will unlock survivor+ play mode by beating survivor+ you will unlock easy+, normal+, hard+ & survivor+
  • Hey guys so Im trying my 1st playthrough and I get stuck in the room with David (winter)... Is it Possible to beat it while having 4 Rifle Ammo and 4 Arrows + Molotov :/ ?
  • It's the room where the bloater comes in..cause I forgot to mention that.
  • Just restart the chapter man
  • My question is, if you beat the last of us on new game plus, will hard plus unlock in order to receive platinum?
  • I mean if you beat the last of us on survivor+,will hard + unlock? Because I just need these two trophies to get the platinum.
  • Just completed the game on normal, however I can only select normal+ and easy+ - it wont let me select survivor... please help?!
  • I finished the game on Hard and then on Hard+ and then used the Chapter Select to start the Prologue on Survivor. I completed it (I had all upgrades from Hard playthrough (not Hard+)) and Both Survivor and Survivor+ Trophies popped up. I am thinking that I needed even have played the Hard+ playthrough. But I will never know. I didn't delete any patches (I am on the Latest Patch as of January 31st, 2014). Survivor playthrough was easier the the Hard playthrough because I was very experienced by then and I also had most of the upgrades. I may start a fresh game without upgrades on Survivor after I dabble with MP for a bit. My way to avoid tedium is to choose different strategy for each playthrough. Like for example, I sneaked past(by laying low after starting the generator) the blo
  • Hi! After having finished in Normal, I used chapter select to finish it on Survival (starting from the Prologue), but I did not get the the trophy when finishing the game. Is it because I used chapter select?
  • @ 16 Well i am not sure what happened to your trophy but i got mine with chapter select. Well, i completed it but didn't get the trophy. I checked all the chapters and for some reason i was still missing a chapter (a checkpoint in Bill Town was still 'completed on Hard') So i replayed that chapter only on Survivor. I still didn't get the trophy, but i figured it'd unlock after the final chapter (Jackson) and Yup! It did. So just check if you have every single chapter completed on Survivor and if you do then replay the last chapter. Hope it helps!
  • kind of hard to beat, but ya i got this trophy. It took a while but it was fun. GREAT GAME. Getting left behind
  • Hi, I finished the game on normal and right now I am collecting all the artifacts, pendants, comics and manuals. But later on I want to get the trophy: "No Matter What - Survivor". I was wondering if this trohpy can be achieved by completing the levels individually. Or do I have to go for "New Game" and then choose survivor? If I do this, will my game on normal (and so all my collected artifacs) disappear? So my question is: Do I need to make a new save for survival or can I just complete each level individually in survival mode?
  • if i finish it in grounded difficulty will i get all the trophies for the difficulties ?
  • I think this difficulty should be the "hard" difficulty and "hard" difficulty should be the "normal" difficulty. Easy, normal and hard difficulties are so easy... -> JeaperCreeper: You need to complete all chapters in survival mode. Just completed each chatpers. You can make a new save or overwrite your old save. -> Thuglife67898: Yes you will. Just be sure that you completed all your chapters in this difficulty level.
