Any tips for getting to the top of the communications tower? There's no way to get past this one camera, and I can't seem to shake the guards. There's too many of them as I climb the stairs I killed dozens of them, but in the end they always outlast my rations.

Stun grenades, stun grenades, stun grenades. If you have the body armour, equip it, and then just throw a stun grenade, run until it wears off, then throw another. It doesn't matter where you throw them; they essentially just blow up the whole screen.
Yeah, I wound up using this strategy. Worked wonders!Try using Stun Grenades as you run up the long flight of stairs. That should help for a while until you run out of them.
But now I'm stuck on the Hind. Any tips here? I try sandwiching myself between the radiators and locking on from there, but it's hard to avoid his gunfire.
I beat Hind. I ended up figuring out a different strategy. First, look at where his dot is on the radar. Next, run in front of him, and when he starts to fire at you, take cover. Then, run out and lock on with the Stinger while he's cooling down.Do you mean you're fighting against the Hind? If so, then focus on the radar to see where the Hind is so you're ready for it. As soon as it surfaces, equip your weapon, lock on and fire, and then hide behind something to avoid its gun.
You need to be quick and to help with this, it's recommended that you use the button that allows you to instantly equip/un-equip your current weapon. I assume you know how to do this.

Essentially, I kept running out into the open to lure him into firing, then I shot him afterward. Worked well!
They have a different knock sound too
I have played through and beaten this game like a hundred times and didn't know that. The little touches are what make the MGS series so awesome to me.
It's what put me off of playing the whole series.
Also, is there any way to beat him without switching controllers?
Even so, it was a memorable set-piece. Onwards!
Whoa, that's awesome! And hilarious.You can also beat her with the Nikita missiles. There's an area of sloped ground off to one side of the battlefield that leads up to the higher ground where she is, so you can stay behind cover for the entire fight and just steer missiles over to blow her up
Claymores, hidden indoors, in a room with jammed radar, with no indication you should be crawling on the lookout for mines... Seriously? LOL
This is between the two cargo elevators, btw. I suspect Raven is coming up in a moment.
Now on my 20th attempt of the Liquid fist fight...
What would the thermals do?That was really brutal and not something I liked I hope you used your thermal goggles after that 'surprise'.
He keeps i-framing me to deathWhat's the main thing about this fight that you're having difficulty with?

Holy shit, I'm raging internally. He keeps starting his counter stance -after- I'm locked in my CQC loop. He raises his hands -after-. How can that even be avoided?

Sigh, I've already tried like 50 times. I think I beat the hardest bosses in Bloodborne faster than this.I think the pro move is to just stick with the first two punches of the CQC combo, don't go for the kick.
I started with MGS4 back in 2008.
It's better that I give you my overall history with the series. I started with MGS4 back in 2008. It was my first PS3 game and the PS3, in turn, was my first non-Nintendo system.
Then I played Metal Gear RIsing. Then MGSV, both Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain. Roughly 200 hours on the latter!
Recently, I picked up the Legacy Collection on PS3. I beat MGS3, I'm working toward the true ending in Peace Walker, and now I'm also playing MGS1, with MGS2 to follow.
I should note, I already know the story to each game. I watched every cutscene and codec prior to playing MGS4, and watched every doc and read every essay I could find, too!
DIIIIIIIIIEEENow fill that smug face of his full of lead.
FOX?
Sure thing, but I already know the story of MGS2, so don't expect me to be surprised by stuff like the false colonel, etc.I want some MGS2 impressions. That is the real video game experience.
Also, argh, all this heavy-handed Snake x Meryl romance when she just ends up marrying Johnny Shitpants, lol
Wait, there are multiple endings??It's part of why I prefer the Snake and Otacon ending more.
Yes. It depends if you give up during torture or not (if I remember correctly). If you give up you ride with Otacon at the end and get his stealth suit as reward (very fun item, since you can evade almost all enemies. They will even start to notice that you wear it and comment on it). I think that means Meryl dies tho.Wait, there are multiple endings??

I think these are my current overall rankings:You nicely summed up how I felt about this game, both the things I liked and disliked. An overall fantastic game.
I think these are my current overall rankings:
1) MGSV (GZ + TPP)
2) MGS1
3) Peace Walker
4) MGS3
5) MGS4
Storywise, MGS3 is probably my favorite. But MGSV is a gameplay achievement rivaling Super Mario 64, in terms of how fun it is to play relative to the standards of its time.
MGS2 is the next one I'll play. I have a good feeling about it based on the little I played.
Yeah, I like MGS4, but it would be so much better if it had some restraint with its cutscenes. It feels so uneven and unwieldy.I see. Those are good rankings. MGS4 is the lowest to me too.
Exactly how I feel.I agree - MGS3's story was great and how it all played out felt really emotional and fun at the same time. MGSV's gameplay is so addictive - I could play multiple new games built around that same smooth gameplay.
With MGS2, I'm interested to play as Raiden. I love his character after playing Rising, so I'm interested to dig into his pre-cyborg days.Nice. I hope you enjoy it - I think you'll especially enjoy the first part, partly because of some nice callbacks to MGS1.

So much stuff from the previous game (And to a lesser extend the first game.) was copied over 1:1.
I think I'll be starting MGS2 in a couple hours, playing in HD on the Legacy Collection. Any tips before I get started?
Yeah, I plan to use radar. I tried Snake Tales and it was incredibly difficult without it!Nice! I can't think of any tips to get you started, only that you have a choice to play without the radar in the options, but I suggest that you don't do that.
