Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence Tips & Hints

Killing the guard in the cell

After you get out of the torture room you will be placed in a cell with one guard. When he gives you some food, eat it then go to "Cure" in the pause menu. With R3 and L3, move Snake around and around for about seven seconds. Leave the pause menu and once your back in the cell, Snake will vomit. The guard will come in and look at you. Use the fork to stab him until he dies.



 

Hitting below the belt

Get to the part where you have to find Major Raikov and take his uniform. Dress up like Ivan Raikov and go to the other gaurds. They must salute to Ivan. During that time, go into first person view and aim at a guard's crotch and punch them. The guard will grab his crotch and fall face down, knocked out. This can also be done when you go into the research facility where you must find Granin. Dress up like a scientist and punch the guards or other scientists in the crotch.



 

Defeating Volgin

Use the following trick to defeat Volgin on Shagohod. When you start the battle, run to a safe place where you know Eva will not ride to. Stop, go to your inventory, and equip the RPG or rocket launcher and some sort of "lethal" sniper rifle. Aim at the spinning drill-shaped wheels on the Shagohod. Make sure that the rocket hits one of them. You will notice that the Shagohod has stopped. Take out the sniper rifle and aim it at Volgin's head. One shot to the head should take him out.



 

Duel mode: High score

The best way to get a high score is to choose one weapon and kill the Boss as fast as possible. It also helps if you collect ammunition for your weapons before defeating the Boss. The shorter the time and more ammunition you carry, the higher the score. You will not lose points for damage or using your medical items.



 

Open gate with Codec

After you have been tortured by Colonel Volgin and are trapped in the cell, enter "144.75" in your Codec. This should open the door. Note: The guards will probably get alerted when the gate opens.



 

Self healing

This trick is difficult to do, but is worth it under the Hard or Extreme difficulty. When you have a serious injury with red in your health bar, heal it part way. The wound should start to heal by itself. Your health should increase by the amount that it healed by itself. This helps save medical supplies.
