Apartment Building
At the start of No Mercy, the survivors fi nd 
themselves on the rooftop of an old apartment 
building. Unbeknownst to them, this very 
apartment building was quarantined early on 
during the outbreak, meaning that dozens of 
infected roam the rooms and halls below. From 
this elevated position, Mercy Hospital can be seen 
in the distance. While it doesn’t look very far away, 
the path ahead is long and treacherous. For this 
phase of the journey, the survivors must descend 
through the infested apartment building and 
make it to the subway station down the street.
Rooftop
Before moving out, gear up at the nearby table. All 
survivors are armed with pistols at the beginning 
of the level and can supplement their load-out 
with one of two primary weapons: the pump 
shotgun or the submachine gun (SMG). Both are 
very competent weapons, but the pump shotgun 
is a bit easier to use in the cramped apartment 
below. Still, it’s a good idea to keep a balance 
within the team. So check with your teammates 
and consider going in with two submachine guns 
and two pump shotguns. Also, don’t forget to max 
out on ammo and grab one of the fi rst aid kits.
note
The infected bosses cannot 
spawn at the start point of 
any level. So take this time to 
gear up and talk with your 
teammates, formulating a 
plan for your trek. But in 
versus mode, the longer 
the time you spend at the 
start point, the longer the 
opposing team’s infected have 
to stage elaborate ambushes 
in the passages ahead. So 
make sure you grab all the 
pickups, but don’t linger too 
long in these safe areas.
When your team has geared up and is ready to 
move out, you must descend to the apartment’s 
third fl oor. There are two paths downstairs. The most 
obvious is the staircase at the center of the roof. But 
your team can also drop down through the skylight, 
landing in a bedroom below. Both entry points have 
their advantages and disadvantages. The skylight 
is the quickest way to reach the third fl oor, but it’s 
tough to clear the room below before dropping in, 
so  your team is at risk. The staircase is a much safer
