| DUEL MODE NORMAL |
----------------------------------


Ocelot Unit ----- 90,000 points BB01

" take out all Ocelots as quickly as possible.
Hide well and be ahead of them! "

Guard locations:
#1,2,3 and 4 - storm the room at the beginning and stay for a
short time before they declare snake to be " not here " and leave.
# 5 is outside the room snake is in, to the left outside the window.
#6 is south, outside the window
#7 is on the roof
#8 is to the east, outside the building's perimeter.
Attacks:
#1- shotguns!
Certain key unit members carry shotguns. these can blow you off
your feet so be Very careful when faced with one.
#2- Handguns, AK-47's and a sniper.
Almost all of the Unit members carry an AK and they all have handguns
as standard Issue. This is one of the reasons no-alerts is the way to go.
#3- Grenades, WP grenades and Stun grenades.
When the team enters the room snake is in, they first toss a stun
grenade, so watch out. Some have WP grenades and all will carry a
grenade. If discovered they will shoot you with their guns, run to a more
favourable location and mop up the mess with a grenade.
#4- Knives
Sometimes they will knock down Snake by slashing him with their knives.
Watch out for this as is Extremely annoying.
How to beat all of the above: don’t get caught. It's as simple as that. Use
my guard locations section to know where the guards will be.
Attack analysis: For a highly trained spetsnaz unit their attacks don't
exactly cause Snake much stress. Plus if you don't get caught, you
won't be attacked at all. So these boys in black and red have a very
poor variety of attacks, possibly the worst in the game, apart from
the Bike vs. Pursuers duel of course.
Items:
- box A
- Cigar
- Active Sonar
- motion Detector
- AP sensor
- Thermal Goggles
- binoculars
Weapons:
- Survival Knife
- MK22
- M1911A1
- AK-47
- Grenade
- Stun G.
- WP G.
- Smoke G.
Equipment analysis:

You are pretty decently equipped for this fight. You are granted all types
of Motion sensor, as well as the thermal goggles. The binoculars are of
no real use to you, Nor is the cigar or Box A. Plus you won't need the
sensors if you have this guide, but I found them handy for checking the
guards locations when I couldn't see them.
As for the weapons, all of them are good and come with a good amount
of ammunition. Still Though, All you really need is the MK22 and 2 stun
grenades.
TIPS:
- Don't go too near windows as you are likely to be seen
- Equip your MK suppressor !
- Don't shoot to kill, as you get a bonus 10,000 for no-kills
- Don't cause an alert as you get a bonus 10,000 for no-alerts
- Beat it in under 3 minutes with all of the previous fulfilled to
get over 90,000.
Strategy:
For guards #1, #2, #3 and #4 do the following.
Straight away when the battle starts crawl under the bed in front
of you. the guards will move in in the next thirty seconds so don't
move yet. Take this time to equip all of your suppressors and have
your stun grenades ready. When the guards blow the door down,
wait until they all enter the room. When they are all in position,
throw one stun grenade. aim it so that at least two of the soldiers
look at it. For this I'd recommend the left hand side. Now throw
one more and it should knock out the remaining guards. If not
DON'T throw another grenade. If you do they'll know where you
are and the alert will ring out. Remember that we want no alerts
so be careful. Shoot the remaining guards in the legs with darts
and wait for the sedative to take effect. I would probably restart if
you don't take them out with the stuns though as it saves precious
time.
For guard #5 do this:
Right after you take out Ocelots #1,2,3 and 4 go over to the trap-
door to the left of the bed. You can press triangle to open
this door and go under the building. When you are under, look
to the left. You should see two grates in the wall. You want the
one on the right. Look out this grate and you'll see another guard.
you can equip the thermal goggles to help you see him if you like.
Sometimes he moves around so wait until you can see him and
pop a dart in his head.
For guard #6 do this:
After you knock out #5 look left from the grate you are at. you will
see to the far south that there is an open grate. Crawl all the way
to this grate. When you arrive you can see that a guard is moving
around. This is your man. Take care not to lean out too far or you
will get seen. Take your time and wait until you have a good shot
at his head before you fire. Only two more left to go and you are
done.
For guard #7 do this:
After guard #6 is down crawl out from under the building but don't
stand up in front of the window. If you do the guard on the roof will
see you. Crawl just beside the window and stand up. Have
your gun ready and wait until he say's something like " nothing
here" or " nobody here " before you step in front of the window.
Look straight through the window and up. If you were fast you will
see the sniper holding his position to the right. Shoot him in the
head as he's leaving. If he manages to move away you'll probably
have to start again if you want to finish in under 3:00. The same
can be said for if he falls off the roof and dies when you shoot him.
time for the last guard.
For guard #8 do this:
After you take care of guard #7 head west inside the buildings
perimeter. Go to the only set of stairs in the place and head up.
go over to the part where the land juts out and look down at
the wall. You'll see a hole in the wall. Better still, you'll see the
guards head through this hole. Shoot him in the head to silently
dispose of him and end this battle.
This is a challenge that you have to perfect to win at. You'll have to
play through it until the strategy detailed in this section becomes
instinct to you. Eventually you'll get it. It took me about 20 minutes
to get it right, and even longer to perfect it. But now it's like riding a
bike: it always comes back. The same will be for you soon enough
so off you go...

Ocelot --- 90,000 BB02
" defeat Ocelot as quickly as possible. attack him when he reloads.
Take various actions to take him off guard "
Items:
-Cigar
-AP sensor
-Sonar
-Binoculars
-Motion Detector
-thermal Goggles
Weapons:
-Knife
- MK22
-M1911A1
-AK-47
-Grenade
-stun G.
- WP G.
- Smoke G.
Equipment analysis:
Again you have everything you need. The motion detector is especially
handy for finding out which rock Ocelot is hiding behind. The other items,
bar the Sonar, are utterly useless in this case.
The weapons are pretty much the same. All you need though, is the
MK22 and some Stuns to Aid you in your fight.
TIPS:
-Use the motion detector or Sonar to locate Ocelot at all times.
- Shoot the hornet's nests, or shoot Ocelot's hat off to keep him
distracted for you to shoot him.
-Shoot him while he's reloading, or while he is distracted by his men.
- avoid his ricocheting shots by running around.
- beat him no-kill, in under 2:30 to beat 90,000.
Attacks:
This is a list if his moves and what you can do to beat them.
#1- shot
Ocelot pokes his head out from behind a rock and shoots you after
a few seconds.
How to beat: either stay out of sight behind one of the rocks, or shoot
him before he shoots you.
#2- Dive shot
Ocelot dives from one piece of cover , shoots, and dives behind another
piece of cover.
how to beat: Again just keep hidden, or get him first.
#3- running shot
The major runs out of cover and shoots straight away as he runs.
How to beat: it's best to stay hidden. But since he offers no warning
as to when he will do this, you'll probably get hit off guard anyway.
#4- ricocheting shot
He does this when you've drained one of his bars more than halfway.
Basically it's a normal shot that will bounce off the scenery and hit
snake.
How to beat: These ricocheting bullets have a distinctive red trail,
so when you see them coming, run around and they should miss
you.
#5- Ricocheting multi-shot
He only does this attack when he has full ammo in both guns.
and even then it's rarely seen. he jumps out of cover and rather
impressively shoots all his bullets at you at a high speed. It can
turn the battle in his favour.
How to beat: It's the only attack I've come across that's nearly
unavoidable Your best bet is to run around like crazy when you
see it coming, but since he does it at random it's hard to avoid
at all.
#6- hornets nest.
He only does this when you shoot the hornets nest on his side
down on him. Basically he shoots down the hornets nest and the
hornets attack you.
How to beat: use the cigar to ward the bugs off. Still though, it's not
much of a distraction.
#7- ocelot unit
Not his attack. At certain points in the duel-when ocelot is first hit
and when one of his bars is low- they will interfere by shooting.
How to beat: the unit has quite possibly the worst shot ever. If you
feel the need you can lie down. but it really isn't necessary at all.
In fact, you can use the distraction caused to get a few free hits at
Ocelot.
#8- Enraged Ocelot
Not strictly an attack but if you should kill the Markhor goat to the
northwest, Ocelot will become enraged by your cruelty. He'll use his
most powerful attacks more often and he will become faster and
harder to hit.
How to beat: well, not shooting the goat might help. Duh.
Attack analysis: Man this guy is lot less evil at his young age. I'll
admit that his ricocheting shot is good, as well as his multi shot.
He also can fire with very high accuracy, and while running too. In
short he is the cool, honourable sharpshooter he makes himself out
to be. But like all of the bosses, he's up against Big Boss, ( Snake )
The greatest soldier of the 20th century, so his attacks don't do
much damage. Thus proving that looks can be very, very deceiving.
The spetsnaz major has challenged snake to a one-on-one, fair duel
using guns. He is a man Of dignity and honour, who believes in a fair
fight. He is using his revolvers with six shots each. He wants a fair
duel to the end. Does this mean that you must fight fair? no. You
must fight dirty. You must use all of your wits and sense of
cheating and unfairness to prevail over the cocky Russian. So I'm
including a list of all the cheating things you can do to make things
easier for you. Who said cheaters never win?
************************************************************************
James Behan's guide to successful cheating against Ocelot *

#1- Shoot him while he reloads!
when the Russian takes time to reload his gun don't just stand there!
shoot him! shoot him in the head!

#2-Shoot him while he's distracted!
When he is distracted by his men or if you manage to shoot his cap off,
Ocelot will take the time to stand around doing nothing/ get his cap.
Use this well earned time to shoot him.

#3- shoot the hornet's nests!
Look up into those trees. See the nests? shoot one of those on top of him
and he'll run around yelling, giving you all the time you need to shoot him
good. Beware though, as he might return the favour...

#4- Use grenades!
The Russian said it was a fair duel with guns. One-on-one. Well screw that.
Use your stun grenades well to keep him holding his eyes while you shoot
him.

#5- Use the snake!
*unconfirmed* tranquillise the snake nearby and toss it near Ocelot. He'll
take the time to shoot it, thus allowing you to shoot him.

So now you now his attacks, AND how to fight dirty, lets move on shall
we?

First off, tranquilise/kill the nearby poisonous snakes. Then move behind
the rock on the left. Shoot ocelot when you see him. His men will start
shooting at you, and ocelot will be distracted long enough for you to
use cheat tip #2. Now the game of cat and mouse starts. The ocelot
versus the snake. When you see ocelot pop out behind a rock shoot
him quickly or he'll shoot you. Shoot the hornets nests early to get
some quick ,easy damage on him. when he starts ricocheting,
move around to avoid damage. Use stun grenades to cause him
to stop for you to shot him some more. take full advantage of his long
reload times to shoot him good. Finally, shoot him up when his guards
interfere for the second time to end this battle.

As before, a no-kill is required. as is a good time of around 2:30.
Keep at it and you can definitely get this easily.


The Pain --- 100,000 BB03

" defeat The Pain as quickly as possible. Hornet attacks can be a
pain. Make good use of the equipment in your backpack ! "

Items:
- bug juice
-AP sensor
-Sonar
-Motion detector
-thermal goggles
-Binoculars
-Cigar

Weapons:
-Knife
-MK22
-M1911A1
-AK-47
-M37
-Torch
-stun g.
-grenade
-WP g.
-smoke G.

Equipment analysis:
An excellent selection. The bug juice and the cigar come in handy
for keeping away the hornets off of Snake. The Thermal goggles help
with The Pain's Doppelganger attack ( see below ) Sadly, the others
are utterly useless for this one. But this is still the best set so far.

The weapons are spot on too. You need the M37 and the grenades
for his Hornet armour and the MK22 for the No-kill. These are the
bare essentials for this and you have all of them. Excellent.


TIPS:
-blow off the Pains armour using the M37 or any type of grenade.
Learn to instinctively do this and you'll make him feel the pain.
-use the bug spray or a cigar to ward off the irritating hornets
- go for no-kill in 2:30 for best results.

Attacks:
This is a list of his moves and what you can do to beat
them.

#1- The Pain throws a bottle of liquid that entices the Hornets to
attack snake.

How to beat: firstly, you can change snake's uniform to get rid of the
smell. If that doesn't do for you, use a cigar or the bug spray to help
ward them off.

#2- The Pain sends all of the bees after you, covering snake so he
can't move.

How to beat: The only way to beat this one is to dive into the water
when you see them coming. be quick as he usually follows this one
up with a grenade. Speaking of which....

#3- Grenade. The Pain calls out "grenade" and a bunch of hornets
cluster up and carry a grenade towards snake.

How to beat: shooting the cluster of hornets once with the M37
or a few times with the M1911A1 destroys the hornets carrying it.
Do this fast and it'll hurt the Pain instead of snake. Do it Very
fast and you can prevent the attack from ever happening. If worst
comes to worst you can always dive into the water and swim away.

#4- grenade barrage

the pain summons up loads of hornets to carry multiple grenades
towards snake. very lethal.

How to beat. If you are very, VERY fast with the M37 and also
very accurate, you can attempt to blow the suckers out of the air.
but since most of us don't have those kind of reactions I'd definitely
recommend swimming like hell when you see it coming.

#5- Fake Pain.

The Fake pain or " Doppleganger " attack shows the pain
summoning his hornets to make an identical version of himself.
You must shoot the right Pain or he will laugh at you and counter
with grenade barrage.

How to beat: equip the thermal goggles and you can see which
Pain is real and which one is fake. Be sure to identify the real one
by the body heat and you really can't fail.

#6- close quarters attack

The Pain gets his hornets to bring him swiftly over to the island
you are on. If he gets to you you get knocked off the island
completely.

How to beat: I can only find one way of beating this and that way
is to jump straight into the water when you see it coming.

#7- Tommy gun

The Pain calls out " tommy gun " and the hornets bring him his
thompson automatic. He then proceeds to shooting the crap out
of snake.

How to beat: You just dive into the water and swim close to the
island he is on, or you just swim away. If you are on the island with
the ammo, behind it underwater there is a little see-hole you can
shoot him through.

#8- Bullet bees

The pain says something like " come my bullet bees" or " go forth
and spits out a few of fast flying hornets that cause serious damage
and send snake flying.

How to Beat: The second you see that red trail behind a hornet, dive
into the water and you'll be fine if you stay under until it's over.

Attack analysis: the Pain has the most colourful attack pattern yet.
His hornets can cause serious aggro to even the most accomplished
players. However, his attacks , apart from the heavily damaging bullet
bees, are decidedly average. They act more as a distraction or a
deterrent than an offensive measure. But I can safely tell you: don't be
deterred. He may be part of an elite unit but he can't damage snake too
badly so long as you are careful not to provoke grenade barrage, and
dive into the water for bullet bees and close quarters attack. The pain
isn't dangerous, the main reason people fail to get the top score is
because his attacks tend to delay you from causing him damage.

So you have to take down the first COBRA unit member. The Pain
specialises in hornets. He wears a balaclava because of his mutilated
face. You are about to make his face even more mutilated. To start,
immediately pull out your MK. and shoot him . Keep shooting until he
summons his hornet armour. Use bug juice when the hornets attack.
Be sure to blow his armour off with the M37 so you can get more shots
in. Avoid the attack when he completely covers you in hornets by diving
into the water. Swim over to the island with the ammo as it is easier to
throw grenades from.

When you wear him down to below 50% stamina you'll see the cut scene.
Straight away dive into the water to avoid his bullet bees. When you are
sure they are all gone get back onto your rock, retrieve the ammo and
continue wearing him down. If he uses his Doppelganger or close quarters
attack, you know what to do. Avoid tommy gun and use the little see-hole
to get some damage on him. Use his own grenades against him by
stopping them right when he throws them. If you can use all of this
information well against your opponent you'll be able to beat him speedily
and efficiently.

Don't be daunted. he is a tough opponent to beat and can annoy you in
so many ways. It can take a few goes to beat him in under 2:30 so keep
at it !


The Fear ---- 90,000 BB04


" defeat The Fear as quickly as possible. watch out for traps. Make use
of the Equipment in your backpack ! "

Items:
-Cigar
-Binoculars
-Thermal Goggles
-Motion Detector
-Sonar
-AP sensor

Weapons:
-Knife
-MK22
-M1911A1
-XM16E1
-AK-47
-M37
-SVD
-Torch
-Grenade
-Stun G.
-WP. G
-Smoke G.
-TNT
-Claymore

Equipment analysis:
The thermal goggles are essential here so that's a start. Less
experienced players might want to use the motion detector, but
It isn't that helpful as the Fear changes his Location so frequently
and quickly. The cigar and binoculars are pointless, as is the AP
sensor. Still a fair selection though.

There are so many weapons but you only need one of them. The
Mk. of course. The M37 can be useful for his Close quarters
attack ( see below ) but only sometimes. The claymore mines
are pointless as he destroys them from afar with his crossbow
should he come across one. The same can be said for TNT.
Grenades don't even graze him as he is up so high on the
treetops, and everything else is lethal so you don't want to use it.

TIPS:
when the battle starts, collect the poisonous food nearby on the
ground using the thermal goggles to find it.( you'll see why later )
- If you can't see the fear, use your head and follow the direction
of his projectiles as he fires them at you.
- watch out for traps using your thermal goggles ( they seem to do
everything don't they?)
-See the Fear using your thermal goggles ( duh )
- beat him No-kill in under 3:00 for 90,000 points.

Attacks:
#1- crossbow attack
He pauses on his perch in a tree and says some stupid, arrogant
comment. He'll then proceed to fire a series of crossbow bolts
at Snake.

How to beat: Either shoot him before he gets to attack or just hide
out of his sight.

#2- fire crossbow attack
He pauses and talks trash like before, only his comments are Fire
related, as are his bolts. Get hit and you'll go on fire.

How to beat: Same as before. Just hide out of view or pop one in
him before he manages to pop one in you.

#3- grenade bow attack.
again, he stops, taunts you with some grenade related topic,
and shoots a crossbow bolt either at you or near you. It explodes
after 5 seconds.

How to beat: again. you could hide or you could shoot first.

#-4 Close quarters attack
He usually does this while hunting for food to replenish his stamina,
but he has done it to me other times as well. Basically he runs at
you, knocks you over, and goes on about his business.

How to beat: either dive roll him first or use the M37 to stop him
dead. Yes, I know it's a lethal weapon but we can bend the rules
sometimes can't we?

#5-various traps
Not exactly his attack, but I'm going to mention it anyway. These
traps range from swinging battering rams of doom, to mines, to
pits.

How to beat: Well don't walk into it, stupid.

Attack analysis: The Fear can cause you a lot of damage if you
aren't careful. His crossbow bolts are actually very dangerous,
sapping Snake's health away at an alarming rate. Avoid them by
taking cover at all costs. He also tends to attack in more frequency
when you leave him unscathed for too long. he is your first real
damage causer. But all bosses have their weaknesses, and
his is his low accuracy. He misses an awful lot. In total he's a bit
like a blind gladiator. All that power and not the skill to use it......

Ok here we go. First equip your thermals and look up. Shoot the
cocky weirdo. Now continue shooting him. Make sure you have
your thermal goggles equipped 'else you wont see him 'cause
he's invisible. This invisibility is caused by his special Camo:
spider. This Camo trades a high camo index for stamina. So the
Fear is constantly having his stamina drained by wearing it. When
his stamina goes below 50% he'll get the munchies real bad and
go on search for food. This is where you come in. Shoot out the
poisonous frog and mushrooms near your starting point and he'll
run straight over and eat them, at which point he screams in anger:
" it's poisoned! " before slowly climbing a tree, jumping a short
distance to another, slowly climbing down, vomiting, and
slowly climbing back up again. This will give you plenty of time
to empty rounds into him. Because of the state he is in he'll go
down no problem.

Use this above strategy and you almost can't lose. If you find
yourself taking too much time just shoot him faster to get his
stamina down. Then hit him with the bad food trick, and you're
golden. It might take a few goes so as I always say: Keep at it.


The End ---- 100,000 ----- BB05

" Defeat The End as quickly as possible. Use the map to check
out the landscape and predict his position. Make use of the
equipment in your backpack ! "

Items:
Cigar
-thermal goggles
-binoculars
-motion detector
-sonar
-AP sensor

Weapons:
- Knife
-MK22
-M1911A1
-AK-47
-M63
-M37
-SVD
-Torch
-Grenade
-Stun grenade
-WP grenade
-Smoke grenade
-TNT
-Claymore
-D.mic

Equipment analysis: This is a pretty good selection. Don't be fooled by the
small quantity of items- all you need is the thermal goggles, Sonar, and
binoculars. As for the weapons, all you need there is the SVD, and in some
cases, like when you have the end pinned down, the M37or M63 will do the
handy job of knocking him right back down again. The D.mic is handy for
hearing the ends raspy breath over distances. So this equipment is all
you need for beating the ancient Sniper.

TIPS:
- To locate The End, run around in the open for a while. Eventually he will
spot you and make a comment. Quickly run for cover. You'll probably get
shot anyway but at least you can check the Map to see where he is and
return fire.
- Collect food in the time between sniper fights. This will be a good backup
if your stamina gets too low.
- look out for signs of the End's presence. Use the thermal goggles to
locate his footprints, the D.mic to hear his raspy breath, and plain old first
person view to ( sometimes ) see the light glinting off of the old man's scope.
Learn to do this well, and you'll find the End before he finds you.
- Don't take dangerous risks. If you can't see the End but he's still
shooting at you, take cover. You can't get the high score if he beats you.
-beat him lethal force, in around ten minutes for best scores

Attacks:
The end has the fewest attacks. Here they are anyway.
#1- Sniper shot
When he spots you, he'll say something like 'there' or ' goodnight ' and shoot
you. It drains a lot of stamina so be careful

How to avoid: staying out of sight of him as best you can, using your sensors
to find him, all these work but are time consuming....

#2- stun grenade
If you manage to shoot the End enough to knock him over, chances are he'll
use a stun to aid his escape.

How to beat: turn away when he uses it, then spin around and deal death with
the M63.

#3- spirits of the forest
Not actually an attack but I had to write something didn't I ?
Basically when his health is below half, he'll run off as usual. But if you leave
him be for too long, he calls out to the spirits of the forest, give him some health.

How to beat: get to him and blow him away before the 'spirits' help him out.


Attack analysis:
while he hasn't got the biggest variety of attacks like the pain or the fear, it's
definitely a case of quality over quantity my friend. His attacks deal massive
amounts of ( stamina ) damage. He is the most irritating opponent yet due to
the fact that it takes ages to find him, and when you do, he just shoots you first.
Attack wise, it's a case of quality over quantity again. he never gets much
chance to attack. So despite the high stamina damage, he really isn't a
threatening opponent at all.

The battle begins in sokrovenno south. head left, and head to the north-west.
Chances are he'll be lurking high up on a ledge. if so, duck behind some cover
and return fire with the SVD. go for the head and chest to inflict maximum
damage. after you have your first battle ( or not, depending on if he was
there or not ) head to the northern area and catch some food. Run around in
plain sight until he sees you and shoots. then use the map to find his position
before returning fire. Apart from the tips, attacks and field gear I have listed, this
battle is totally random. Each time you restart the End favours new sniping
points. because of this random nature I can't walk you through the basics,
you'll just have to use your own initiative to predict his location.

I'm one for motivation so I'm going to say it again: don't give up. you can do it if
you practice.


The Fury --- 80,000 ----- BB06

" defeat the Fury as quickly as possible. If he finds you first, you're in trouble.
Look around and predict how he'll move! make use of the equipment in your
backpack "

Items:
-cigar
-binoculars
-thermal goggles
-NVG
-Motion detector
-Active Sonar
-AP sensor
-box A

Weapons:
-Knife
-MK22
-M1911A1
-XM16E1
-AK-47
-M37
-SVD
-Mosin nagant
-RPG-7
-torch
-grenade
-stun grenade
-WP grenade
-smoke grenade
-TNT
-Claymore

Equipment analysis:
overall your equipment is very good. You can use the motion detector and
thermal goggles well, as can you put the box to good use: if you get caught
on fire you can change into it and the fire goes away. The weapons are good
too. the TNT can be used at the very beginning, when you don't know where
he'll be. The M37 is excellent for bringing him down. the knife, unusually, is
the best weapon on offer. It does phenomenal damage to him for reasons
unknown.

TIPS:
- Use the Box if you get caught on fire
-stay away from the edge of the area, as if you get caught by his
flames you can be sent reeling over the edge to your doom.
-use a combo of the M37 and Knife for best results.
- avoid his attacks by attempting to circle around him.
-beat him lethal, in a time of around a minute and a bit, for best scores.

Attacks:
#1- the fire from hell!
he sprays his flamethrower at you, causing burns and massive damage.

How to beat: if he spots you, this is almost impossible to beat. My research
has shown that the best way to beat it is to duck behind a wall to avoid the
tongues of fire. If it is a case that you simply can't duck for cover, try to
move around the flames to the Fury himself so you can attack.

#2-the flying fireman
He uses his jetpack to take off into the air and sprays flames around the place.

How to beat: this only really affects you if you are in the middle of the
corridors. To avoid it go on to one of the high ledges or just run away.

#3-the final countdown.
he counts down from 5 to 0 and then " blasts off ", spraying flames all down one
corridor.

How to beat: when he announces that he's going to do it ( you'll see it
coming a mile away ) make yourself scarce until it's over. also, he is very
vulnerable while doing the countdown, so if you can attack him beforehand....

Attack analysis: he is definitely a dangerous opponent. Difficult to see. his
attacks are massively powerful so it's best to avoid them or snake will find
himself well-done. snake eater indeed.......


so here we go. you start off in midway down a corridor. the fury swoops past,
taunting, before landing somewhere to the south. Whether or not you beat
this in a minute, or indeed, beat it at all, depends on what you do now.
Edge along the wall and head south. if the Fury is on the ledge you'll be able to
see. if he is, wait for him to come down before you hit him with the M37. if he
isn't there he is on the other ledge. Shoot the barrels there to cause him some
decent damage. Anyways, when he gets up he'll go ballistic with his flamethrower
so avoid that, and get up on the ledge with him. Equip your deadliest weapon ,
the Knife, and wait for him to finish attacking before knifing him. it will do amazing
damage and he'll announce that his suit has been ripped. Now you do even more
damage to him. Now wait for him to get up again, and avoid his counter-attack if
possible. Keep using the strategy of attack, hide attack. If he tries to fly away,
cut his trip short with the knife. With some trial and error, you'll have him down to
hell in no time, with over 80,000 points as well.

-Mushroom E
-Frog B

Equipment analysis:
All of snakes equipment in this is good, but unnecessary for this fight.
The mk22 is all you need to beat Volgin. But of course you can use
some of the other items to help you ( see TIPS section ) I would say
that you are given this equipment just to tease you - they give you what
you want, but when you don't want it.

TIPS:
- the best thing to do for volgin is to use CQC. Use the throw ( circle + left
analog stick ) and dive roll ( x while running ) while he is down for best
effect.
- Use chaff grenades to deflect his lightning away from you.
- Use the Russian glowcap to, rather inexplicably, attract lightning also.
- Volgin has a fear of tree frogs as they remind him of the rain he hates so
much. Use the tree frog to make him direct his attacks at it for a while.
- he can't be hit with bullets while he is facing you, so shoot him when he is
distracted by ocelot or while he is recharging his electricity at the power
outlet.
- beat him no-kill, in under 2:00 for best scores.

Attacks:
Volgin follows the ever present trend of super hero / villain with lightning powers.
So I've decided to announce him like he obviously wants to be: with mock super
villain attacks

#1- " the lightning of doom! "
Volgin wants a duel without guns. If you decide to pull out your guns anyway, he'll
shoot a bolt of lightning at you to counter.

How to beat:
put away your guns when you see it coming and dodge it easily, leaving volgin
open for a CQC throw...

#2- " the bullets of wrath ! "
he lifts one arm into the air, and then ( somehow ) shoots bullets at snake in a
horizontal sweep.

How to beat:
run to the side and behind him as he fires it and the bullets will miss you. Once
again he’ll be open for a throw.

#3- " death from close up ! "
he attacks you with regular punches and kicks that can send you flying. if he
knocks you into the air , snake pukes when he stands back up.

How to beat: it can be hard to beat if he decides to do this but it is possible to
avoid these by throwing him first, if you are good at CQC.

#4- " death, from everywhere !"
He does this one at the start of the second half of the fight. He raises both arms
into the air and sprays bullets ( again, how? ) in all directions.

How to beat:
lie flat on your stomach and the bullets will go over your head.

#5- " death from below ! "
He does this randomly in the second half of the fight. He'll crouch down and say
some comment, before sending a line of electricity across the floor.

How to beat: Dive roll over it when you see it coming towards you and you'll
be fine.

#6- " even worse lightning ! "
the same as #1 except there are three forks instead of just one.

How to beat:
If you can manage to be in one of the places not touched by the three forks you
can get away
unmarked.

Attack analysis: so this guy isn't as dangerous as you thought. Even after those
horrific torture scenes, he's just plain easy to beat. his attacks can do a lot of
damage if you aren't careful though, so just learn the pattern of his attacks and
you'll be fine.

so the battle starts with you and volgin facing each other. Straight away run at
him and CQC throw him. Dive roll him while he is down and back away. He'll get
up and say " here it comes! " and begin a long charge up for an electrical attack
.Use this golden opportunity to shoot him as many times in the back with the MK.
as you can. Now that you have this added boost of damage on him you will finish
this battle even faster. Don't be daunted by the low time frame- it's easier to achieve
than you think. Now that you've dealt decent damage to him you can work on him
with ease. When he raises his arms to spray bullets run around him as he shoots
and throw him. Then dive roll him. Equip your gun to provoke an attack, put it away
to avoid the lightning, and then throw him over.
+---------------------+
| Second half |
+---------------------+
This half starts with you facing him again, only he is about to spray bullets
everywhere. Equip the Raikov mask and crouch down on the ground. He'll
spray the bullets, then see the face of his lover and stop his assault. Throw
him now, and dive roll him. Wait until he gets up and a ! mark appears
over his head. Shoot him as many times as you can with the MK. in the back.
He should be low on stamina by now, and you should be low on time. Avoid
his powerful lightning as much as you can and keep working on him with CQC
to end this battle.

- Grenade
-stun grenade

Equipment analysis:
since this part is on the rails shooting you don't need any of the items,
so I won't bother to talk about them.

The weapons in this are godly. Not only do you get the awe-inspiring RPG-7,
but you get the SAA. Why the SAA you ask? well let me tell you a story,
about a gamer ( me ) who was playing this level using the MK22. I struggled.
Took many retries, swore many times, until I at last saw the red high score
that was my own. In victory I took a retry for fun, and only when I used the
SAA did I see it'strue power: the ricochet ability makes it always hit if you
aim at the right spot, and all enemies die in one shot!. using this gun, I
increased my high score from 45,000 to 53, 000 and I hit all enemies!
So do yourself a favour and use the SAA, not the MK, for this one.

Strategy: OK, so you begin in the lower right area. EVA will crash into the
wall just ahead of you before speeding off to the right. You will see a couple
of crates ahead, with three guards, one on the right and two on the left.
Follow Eva’s advice and take them out with the SAA. Don't bother to aim as
the bullets will seek out targets. Look closely at the tower in the distance.
A guard is standing on the balcony shooting you. This is where geometry
and physics come in. I know these kinds of things have no place in our video
games but they play a part here. Try to point the gun at a spot on the ground where
it will ricochet and hit the guard. Keep trying until you get good at it as there are
points where you will need it later. Next EVA turns around and heads back where
she came. Keep your focus on the Jagged gap in the wall to the west as you will be
heading there. When the shagohod raises it's tread, get ready. As you turn in to the
next area guards will approach from behind the containers. Just use the SAA to
do the job. you'll turn a corner and be faced with three guards. Gun them down
from a distance with the SAA. The Next area is A bit crazy due to camera angles
so just let the bullets fly and they will do the hard work. Guards appear out of the
gaps between warehouses and From behind snake so get them all. You'll turn
into tha area with lots of tanks. It has six guards: three below the connecting bridge
and three in it. Take out them all. You may need to use the RPG-7 To get the top
ones. It doesn't matter how you Do it just do it before EVA moves on. After a spell
of dodging the shagohod she goes under the bridge and away to area Five. You are
going down a ramp and three guards are in front of you. Immediately dispatch them.
When you turn the corner a guard is ahead of you. kill him and wait for Eva to turn
before killing two more. A Guy with a rocket launcher appears on the roof. Take him
down FAST to avoid unnecessary pain. You then drive on up to two more guards :
you know what to do. When you turn the corner Start going trigger happy as it is
another chaotic area. Kill the other rocket launcher guy on the roof and when EVA
turns into the gap in the building shoot the barrel to kill the approaching guards.
Four more will appear in formation: note to volgin, organisation costs lives. After
you make human sieves out of them EVA turns around the corner. A few more
Guards are waiting: some on girders, others just plain standing. Kill them all and
the level will end as you pull out of the facility. This is pretty easy so memorise the
locations of the guards before going on to take the crown.

Equipment analysis:
you Don't need items so forget about them

all you need weapon wise is the RPG-7, the mosin nagant, and possibly
Chaff grenades. Forget about all of the other guns.

TIPS
- shoot the Treads ( those drill type things) to momentarily disable
the shagohod.
- use the RPG for all of the shagohod work.
- When the shagohods rear is exposed, shoot the electrified area to cause
big damage.
- use the mosin nagant to shoot volgins head
- Go for no-kill on volgin, in around 3-3:30 for top score

Shagohod attacks:
#1- Double machine gun
basic enough. it shoots two streams of bullets. Half the time it doesn't
even hit.

How to beat: when you actually do feel threatened, shoot the treads to cut
off the attack

#2- super machine gun
this is a lot more dangerous. A single stream of bullets shoots directly at the
bike/snake causing a fair amount damage.

How to beat: shoot the treads. It's that simple.

#3- the crusher
he does this in the second half of the fight mainly. Basically he uses the
sheer strength of the tank to crush you.

How to beat: if you're on the bike, shoot the treads. If you're on the ground,
try to position yourself in the centre of the tank where the treads will miss

#4- Homing missiles
The most dangerous attack. He shoots a series of missiles that home in on snake
and take him down.

How to beat. Either run out of the way or use chaff to send them reeling off course.

Strategy: straight away shoot the treads. When the rear of the shagohod is in view
take a shot. Repeat this strategy and you can finish this half of the fight without the
'hod firing a single attack at you.

For part two of this it is almost the same as before except you have to shoot volgin.
Shoot the treads (again) to disable volgin's shield. Then use the mosin nagant to
take a headshot. Repeat three times tops to end it.

This is a simple battle so keep at it for a while to get it.

-TNT
-Claymore
-D.mic

Equipment analysis:
You don't usually need any equipment, unless you plan on using thermals to
find the boss. Nevertheless, it is satisfactory.

The weapons are not needed either, as I am about to explain....

This is either the easiest fight or the hardest fight of them all, depending on
your skill in CQC. Use the TIPS section well.

TIPS
- Don't use stealth. Straight away run at the Boss and just as she grabs you,
Clamp down on circle. This will actually counter her move.
- While she is stunned by your counter move in for the kill with a CQC throw
of your own ( circle+left ) Beware though, as she is quick and if you aren't
100% sure of yourself and have your plan in mind, she'll have you on your
back before you can register a plan in your mind.
- While she is on the ground from your successful throw, dive roll on her to
complete the combo, then run like hell before she gets up.
- Beat her no-kill, in about 2 and a half minutes for tops.

Attacks
#1- CQC. She has umpteen ways to see you on your back with many
intricate throws
How to beat: It's all about the crucial timing of when you press circle. Press it
just right to counter her.
#2-Patriot She basically just goes ape with her gun at you. She
does it after you throw her down. How to beat: See those trees?
they're not just for decoration you know.

Strategy: this is it. Run at her, and when she grabs you , counter her throw,
throw her, and roll on her. Keep those three in your head: Counter, throw ,
roll. Counter, throw , roll. It's all you need to know to beat her. She is
very easy to beat if you know your stuff. I can't help you much more. Good luck!

Well hot shot, congrats. If you are reading this you probably have the Green face paint
in your slimy little hands and are itching to use it. If this is the case then go on, save
your game and give it a go. watch puzzled guards walk by as you hang inconspicuously
from a tree. Blah blah blah, etc. etc. etc...... Anyway now you're back it's time to wipe
that smile off of your face because know you're heading for deep water. Special mode
takes no prisoners and is eye wateringly hard at places. This time around you'll be
competing not only for bragging rights, but for the extremely useful DPM camo as well.
