Lol I love the Johnny the diarrhea guy.

And the ipod is neat too. Too bad u can't use ur own music w/ it.

Btw have u noticed that all the computers on the nomad are macs? And that during the 2nd mission briefing Sunny is playing a PSP (with apparently mario kart?) And when u control the mk. II Snake is holding a dualshock 3. I thought that was kinda cool.

[FreePlay]

Spoiler for ;D:

Johnny from rat team 01 is actually the same guy you found outside the cell naked and unconcious, in mgs1, and the same guy who had the ****s and bumped into emma in mgs2.
Theres various other little gems in there that link directly to mgs4.. have a watch :)

lol, you didn't get that from the fact that he was sh*ttin' himself?

Sunny's actually playing "Penguin Adventure," one of Kojima's first games.

I think the part she plays is around 4 min into this vid

Beat the game 4 times now, currently on Act 2 on Boss Extreme, so far no kills, no continues, no health, no using special items. So far so good on getting the Big Boss Emblem.

[shortboy]

What are the special items, by the way?

[bmfgeorgin2]

Bandanna (infinite ammo) Stealth camo (invisible)

[TheRaiderNation]

Uh, fight with Crying Wolf while trying to get no alerts is so god damn hard :Argh:

[Slasher]

Spoiler for I guess this could be a spoiler for act 4:

I just finished playing as rex.... WOW that was awesome

1 more act to go :)

[Kold Kalamity]

^^Yeah, that part was rape goodness.^^

[Adiuvo]

Uh, fight with Crying Wolf while trying to get no alerts is so god damn hard :Argh:

Tranq all the guards and go under the truck, then snipe her in the head.

[Nero]

This would be better in act 5 imo:

Spoiler for act5:

where near the ending meryl and akiba are shooting, you get to control them for a bit, then control raiden with the sword and then return to snake, i dunno but that would be awesome.

I just can't stop playing this game! I hope kojima makes an MGS5.

[bmfgeorgin2]

I wont spoil it but the triangle buttoning at the end was so intense... I thought my finger was going to fall of near the end. But at the same time I keep telling myself, you CANT stop, the fate of the world depends on you :):):):)

[mohaas05]

Uh, fight with Crying Wolf while trying to get no alerts is so god damn hard :Argh:

lol im stuck at that part right now. The wolf keeps jumping out of nowhere on top of me. And the solid eye is no help either. THe farthest ive got is getting it slightly under half health with the grenade launcher.

[Eranmane]

Finally got around to playing this again (I've spent less than 6 hours playing this since launch...). Still playing act2, lol.

Spoiler for where I am:

Outside the mansion. Otacon says that the lab isn't too far away...

Spoiler for nomad stuff:

Extended battery for MG-Mk2 is on the plane under one of the tables in the first mission breifing... very, very useful

EDIT: FreePlay noted that there was a hint towards two more MGS games. I actually noticed that myself a few seconds go (paused the cutscene to post it). It's in

Spoiler for location:

The scene where you meet Naomi in the research lab, after she explains what happened to the soliders once they were freed from the system

[Abe_Froeman]

I'm still on Act 2 as well. I haven't had much free time to play this unfortunately.

[mohaas05]

well i just managed to:

Spoiler for event:

stab vamp with the syringe. But now im stuck trying to kill all the geckos with the railgun. It sucks too because they keep self-destructing

[Vee]

Spoiler for Spoiler for how to help you fight those geckos:

Not sure if you know, but if you hold down L1, the small bar in the bottom left corner charges up, if you shoot those geckos straight through the head part, with a fully charged shot, it will kill them. I pretty much charged and shot at everything, was the easiest way. Or hide under Rex itself and shoot.

yeah. but soon there are so many of them that it is hard to keep track. Plus sometimes they're behind the rubble which is super annoying.

[Nero]

Use your solid eye and set it to NV mode, that will make it easier to spot them, then fully charge the gun and shoot in the head, one shot one kill.

mmkay. thanks. I guess this isn't really that hard. I just gave up after a couple tries and played MGO so i guess ill try again later.

[Vee]

Yeah its pretty easy. Hardest part of the game up to now, has to be:

Spoiler for Spoiler:

Outerhaven. Sneaking past those troops and the geckos. I ended up just using Octocamo, then just running.

[TheRaiderNation]

yeah. but soon there are so many of them that it is hard to keep track. Plus sometimes they're behind the rubble which is super annoying.

Spoiler for how to fight them:

Just Ignore them all until they get into the kinda 'ring' that your inside, ignore the ones outside the ring, they won't start self-destructing until they go into the inner circle

Spoiler for Crying Wolf:

What I try to do is make it to one of the communication towers, and plant Claymores so that the frogs can't get me up there, and also put a silencer on the M4 sniper, and then snip her from up there, but that only gets me so far, and then I have to wait for like an hour (obvious exateration) until she gets back into a place where I can get her. Damn it's so hard.

[Adiuvo]

Spoiler for Crying Wolf:

Why aren't you just following her tracks?

[Alistar]

Mohaas:

Spoiler for Crying Wolf:

1. Stay behind tree at beginning.
2. Get out sniper.
3. Use Night Vision when the storm gets bad.
4. Straight off kill from there. Take out some of the patrols as well.

[TheRaiderNation]

Spoiler for Crying Wolf:

Why aren't you just following her tracks?

Spoiler for Crying Wolf:

Tracks? Didn't know she left tracks, plus it be kinda hard following her while trying to not get spotted

Thanks Alistar, I'll try that.

[leejames04]

I have recently started playing this, finally, and love it. I have only got to Act 3 though in 8 hours, but then I only watched the other games whilst my brother played them. (Next time I'll do a marathon).

I dunno if anyone has pointed it out, but the shake the contoller to remove Snake's Octcamo also works in cutscenes Can someone double check that if possible, just to make sure my eyes are not decieving me :L

[Vee]

Yeah i mentioned that a few pages back. Its awesome. Wish you could access the camo menu in a cutscene though, i hate it when he's wearing the normal gimp mask face camo in a cool scene.

[leejames04]

Yeah, especially when Snake is being sick or something.

I saw the Raiden/Vamp Scene(s) in HD and loved them, Youtube does no justice

Oh more plaing tomorrow

[Alistar]

Thanks Alistar, I'll try that.

Sorry, I would of added these details but I can never save edits... Must be some sort of browser error.

...Man, I need to reword this...

Spoiler for Cryign Wolf V2:

1. As soon as the battle begins, hide behind the fallen tree a and pull out your SVD.
2. She will be right in front of you near the trees. Snipe her in the head for major damage.
3. While she runs round, take out some patrols with the sniper or tranq them. Your choice.
4. Just wait for her to come in sight. DO NOT look for her, let her come into your view.
5. All in all, this should be easy.

Notes: Use Night Vision when the storm gets bad. Also, if she runs round crazy, prone so she does not notice and run over you. A thing to keep in mind is to not stick to the tree. Just crouch so she can notice you but the troops can't. When she notices you, she will come out of her armour and ready her attack.

This should be better... More detailed.

[Eranmane]

W00t, act3

Spoiler for wtf? act2:

When I was doing the mountain trail, I found a circle with cut grass surrounded by tall grass. Standing in there, a booming voice said something (something about the sky to the east, really can't remember). And I got some bonus DP...

Also, following the guy at the start of act3 is very tedious and boring... You can knock him out, then wake him up if he notices you, but 9/10 times he'll notice you again whilst waking him up, and if you get back to normal then he'll be stopped by some PMCs, and when you take out the PMCs he starts going crazy and tries to kill you...
