Commandos 2: Men of Courage is a definitive World War II real-time strategy and tactics game released by Eidos Interactive and Pyro Studios, and it is probably my favourite PC game of all time. This is my full gameplay walkthrough with commentary of Level 2, Das Boot Silent Killers, which can serve as a guide for how to successfully complete the level.
Level plot: In May 1941, commandos Paul Toledo and Natasha Nikochevski have captured an Enigma machine and its codebook in a German submarine base at La Pallice in La Rochelle, France. While Natasha leaves the base, Toledo is ordered to stay behind with the Enigma to assist the other commandos (Jack O'Hara, Thomas Hancock, James Blackwood & René Duchamp) when they arrive at daybreak to rescue the crew of a Royal Navy submarine, the E-423, sheltered and under heavy guard in a submarine pen. They destroy the base's anti-aircraft guns and torpedo warehouse before escaping in the submarine.
The game sees players taking control of a squad of commandos (Green Beret, Sniper, Diver, Sapper, Driver, Spy, Thief, and Natasha) along with various allied units, as they sneak behind enemy lines to accomplish various missions in World War II, between 1941 and 1944, that will help them to thwart the war efforts of the Germans and the Japanese. The game also has an incredible music soundtrack by Mateo Pascual.
This is the original release of the game, currently available on Steam. I will also be reviewing the 2020 HD remaster soon.

This game was my childhood. I played it endlessly, what a masterpiece. You could tackle nearly every level in so many ways, and every level was so inventive and fun to play and replay. My favorites must be this level, The Guns of Savo, Saving Private Smith and Castle Colditz. Das Boot might have been the absolute best, a sandbox of so many possibilities... you could approach it from four different entry points (the minefield, the submarine pen, the warehouse, the guard tower...) and use any kind of strategy you liked, from going in gun blazing to sneaking stealth to using the spy... wow... so many memories!
Thank you for bringing us this gem and your brilliant commentary!
Thanks, so glad you enjoyed it - it was a lot of fun to revisit it after many years!
@@SteveRamsdenTH-cam hi, I can’t open the door to save the captain for some reason, my keys doesn’t open the door, have i got the wrong keys or something? Hope you can help me out 😅
I also hadn’t the key to free the prisoners but opened the door using a time bomb, but with the door to the captain it didn’t work
same
It was one of the few stealth games that I liked.
The difference in names comes from the European and American release of Commandos 1. Green Beret is called Butcher or Tiny, depending on the version, same with Spooky/Frenchy for the spy. Also sapper is sometimes called Inferno, and also Fireman. Also, the small green uniforms are basically the ‘ammo’ for the disguise. Same as you can stack guns or take out the clip, you could do the same with the uniforms.
Good to know!
Thank you for this! When I have first played it, I actually just got the officer uniform and walked in through the doors to the base next to the gates, and the objective just got ticked, I never even knew I could get the gates open.:D That is why I love this game, because there is about a million ways to do things, I just watch your videos to get a basic idea of what each character can do, then I try to figure it out on my own.
I know this is late, but I just saw the part in the commander's office, and started ripping out my hair and yelling "why did you not equip the commander's uniform!! You could boss around everyone!" xD
Same here! I'm even more late.
@@eitysvlog11 haha
its the same as officer uniform just better looking. you will still be attacked by other officers
This game is sooo addicting, I recently got back into it and I literally have dreams of various levels and how to approach them. I day dream about it too. It's insane, I wish there were custom map mods and stuff for it, so we got to play more.
I think the diver is definitely the best in the game at silent killing. The ability to do so from range, although short, is insane. I mostly use the Green Beret for when I need to carry boxes to save inventory space. I have him carry the boxes over to the other people. Other than that, I don't use him very much. I did use him a bit when I did my fast playthrough for popping in and out of buildings and spam knife on people when they followed you out. That's really powerful, especially if you have self healing with cans of food.
I always used the dog to vary all the bombs. Freed up space to pick up other stuff. Then when I needed a bomb, i'd use the whistle and grab one from him.
That's such a good idea. I never thought of that!
Another great walkthrough, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
Your accent compliments the commentary so much. These episodes are something that I've been binging Soo much 😂
Hahah thanks very kind
This game shines best in co-op mode.
You can actually use the dog as a cargo carrier and pack him with stuff to fetch cargo to any team member with a whistle...Tiny's radio is meant to draw attention as a distraction device for enemies into one location to be taken out by booby trap...
Honestly, the diver with his throwing knife AND the harpoon, he is more useful than all in my opinion. The combination of him and the Spy, oh the elite duo.
By the way, are you ever going to do this series again but this time do the remastered version instead. Oh and also, if you can livestream it maybe on Twitch that would be awesome. I know youre doing more of movie bits, but you know, a little commandos walkthrough is always welcome
I've been meaning to try the remaster at some point, but still haven't got round to it. I think it would just make me want to play the original. from what I've seen online it's a shame they've redesigned the character faces, now they all look like they are on drugs haha!
@@SteveRamsdenTH-cam I mean, yeah, I do understand your point of view. Nothing really beats the OG.
But, good series nonetheless.
Am i the only one who still plays this masterpiece and commandos 3 ?
Nope. I do as well
Truman show reference! Love it
Glad somebody got it haha!
How did you rotate the view smoothly? I'm playing Commandos 2, not the HD remaster.
the aqua lung was invented in 1942 by France
02:40 There we go. I wondered if anybody would bother to find this out!
For some reason i can’t use the time bombs or the remote control bombs of the sapper? They are in my backpack but if i search in my weapons they aren’t there,
Only my guns?
one thing you forgot to change into to generals uniform 😂 55:05
Hey how do you rotate camera but smoothly not by angle to angle? Coz when you press alt key the hand tool comes up and click left mouse, it will just rotate the screen angle to angle but not smoothly like you do here.
You can only do a smooth rotation inside buildings. For the outdoor map, they have only built it from 4 angles. So it looks 3D but it actually isn't!
I usually press alt and hold the right or left key on my keyboard
That's how u rotate smoothly
I've always wanted to see subtitles for the German dialogue from the soldiers so that I could 100 percent understand what they were saying
Same here!
Ur SOOOO good at accents sry I j had to say 😂😂
I probably make fun of the diver too much haha 😂
Man, you're an expert, you do things so fast!
It's taking me hours to complete it, I have nearly finished it.
I want now to get rid of the group doing exercises outside and the armoured vehicle next to it; but I can't do it without raising the alarm.
Is there not a way to complete this level without raising the alarm? Thanks for your time and answer.
I think the alarm always gets raised when you blow up the guns / torpedo hanger / oil tanks, and you have to do that to complete the level. So I've never found a way to do it without raising the alarm! Enjoy :)
Regarding the group of soldiers, there IS a WAY to do it, but you're going to have to use up a few saves just in case something goes wrong.
Get a vehicle, preferably the truck, not the car (I think they can see over that at certain angles).
Soldiers are scripted to dodge out of the way when a vehicle is racing past or towards them. They even do it when the vehicle isn't directly aimed at them or when they're in the process of shooting. Thing is, they don't *always* go back to their original position after they begin walking back, especially not when there's *something* blocking their way.
So...drive a vehicle towards them and separate one soldier from the rest and then use the truck to separate the others' view of your victim.
Then, simply knock him out/kill him and carry him somewhere where the others won't see him. Get back in the truck. Rinse and repeat until you're in the clear. Or if they've placed themselves in new positions that allow you to knock them out without alerting the others, good on you.
The armoured vehicle, on the other hand, is going to require a kaboom or two. But if you don't want an alarm and for everyone in the nearby area to come running, you ought to omit that. You'll be inside the base for the majority of the time, anyway. One panzer boi driving outside the walls shouldn't cause you much trouble.
Hope this helps!
I used to use the truck on the other side with the spy disguised as an officer to drive the others in to the base i know this comment is two years later 😂
Where do you find the captains cell door key
The lieutenant Jailer on the roof of the prison has it
nice
how green using unform??
I'm playing the HD remaster on switch and I can't for the life of me figure out how to use guard mode. I want to set my squad up and have them ambush but none of them fire their weapons when an enemy comes.
I haven't yet tried the remaster so I don't know I'm afraid
All tasks ticked off,all sailors and officers in sub,along with my team. Now what.😂😂
you can knock on walls to distract an enemy
The left side is the wrong place to sneak in. Start from the right. Get an officer uniform.
Can not figure this out for life of me. How do I get the enigma code ?
You get the machine itself in the previous level, Night of the Wolves, and Thief starts this level with it. I don't think there's a specific code you need to get in this level
I didn't watch the whole video, but I cannot find anywhere how to use the security papers while driving the car to enter through the gate. I can get the spy to disguise himself as an officer. I can steal the car and drive it in front of the gate. But, then nothing happens. The guy with the black shirt doesn't open the gate or ask me for papers. I tried searching for a solution, but everywhere I looked people are simply walking in instead of using the car.
Same here!
@@SteveRamsdenTH-cam Oh really? LOL, that is funny. I guess maybe it's a bug then?!?
@@sander_bouwhuis yes, it's so strange. I tried it so many ways and it never worked haha
It worked for me surprisingly, with just the spy in the vehicle. I just had to drive near the guy at the gate for a few seconds, and then the door opened.
@@jalapeno_clashroyale5805 Hmmm... so there apparently is a way to do this 'right'. Can you see anything you did different than Steve Ramsden that could be why it works for you?
It looks like i can get trouh with the sapper and i got pretty far here. Im playing on PlayStation 4 and its great 👍
But the remaster is not very good, the game screen is to big for my tv.
Also using a controller Is like trying to control people with cerebral palsy
Who has invented mirror?
Why they stopped making wonderful games like this.
There is a fans made mod of this game "Commandos 2 Destination Paris". I think with over 200 missions so it'll keep you going for a while.
I wish if they could relaunch the game with improved graphics.
If you want play commandos in today era, just play sniper elite 4 and 5.
Its same like commandos but with 3rd person view.
And forget about sniper mode.
U can enter the camp dressed like an officer driving the truck. Hiding the rest in the back. And someone will open the gate gate after checking your papers. Just stole the truck with the spy and drove it to the other side of the map. Armored vehicle is no threat to spy in vehicle. See here how they open the gate th-cam.com/video/hHeP0KnWTGs/w-d-xo.html
And you can drive vehicles with WASD, better than the clunky mouse control for vehicles
Where can I get the truck?
Truck is over the otherside of the map near the train entrance @@thekirgo
Ok I just played 2 hours trying to figure out how to parachute Tiny in...…THE FUCKING PICTURE OF THE FUCKING PARACHUTE! I sToo0Pid

Always pains me to hear people pronounce "das boot" as a boot (the footwear).
Just try to search "how to pronounce das boot" here on youtube.
