Passwords _______________________________________________________________________ ============== 1a. The Forest ============== When you reach the forest you'll get a phone call from Big Boss. Go right. Wait for the guy behind the jeep to fall asleep and then punch him thrice. When you get to the dogs go toward the top one and punch them or run. When you see the two paths below go to the one on the right. When you see the dog carefully walk behind it and kill it. Go dwon. Go to the to the right where the solider can't see you and wait for the soldier to fall asleep, and then give him three good whacks. If you wish to get the binoculars, go into the truck next to the guy. Go down and off to the left behind the bush. Wait for when neither is looking. Then get the one on the top and take his space. Wait for the bottom guy to turn away and kill him. If the bottom guy spots you position yourself near where the top guy was, wait for him to run up, and give him three punches. Go down and kill the dog from above. Go down (the other ways do nothing. Run up to the front of the building and when one guy looks away kill him and go down. When you get to the truck sneak around and kill the guards. Go into the top truck and get the LV1 security card. Go into the bottom one when you come out and it'll take off. Wait until the guard says it's your turn and go into the door. ====================== 1b. The First Building ====================== When you get inside watch for guards. Go up-right and get past the guard into the door for a gasmask. Be careful, a guard is closely watching it. Go back down and carefully all the way left until you hit the wall and start going up. You will probably get caught at some point but keep your cool and punch everyone or run off to another screen. When you reach the area guarded by the triangle formation of guard and go up go up the RIGHT SIDE of the LEFT PASSAGE. When you reach the next room (with the metal crates) wait for the guard to say it's your turn (to do what?) and then go in through the green doors. In the next room, walk into what looks like a whasing machine (it's an elevator) and press up twice. Now go right. Be careful of the surveilance cameras in the next room. Slip down via the left passage with utmost care. In the next screen sneak in through the door on the lower left. Pick up the box for ammunition. Go down through the next passage to find a POW. Walk up to him to free him. Go right into the next room, and put on your gas mask right when you get in. Make your way to the end and stand right in front of the door. Take your card out again and get right out. Watch out for the security camera in the next room. Go into the lower door to find another POW. You'll get some of the plot and then can leave. Go right through the hall. Go up into the door. Watch out for the giant roller, which can crush you. When you get out continue right to find a room with two very good guards. Wait for the left one to turn around and then sock him. The other guard will probably see you, so just into the middle crevice and wait for him to come. Then just press up once and run. The swarm of guards should hit you. Continue right. Go through the bottom right door carefully (there's a sruveilance camera over it and the other door). Inside, you'll find Card #2. Switch from Card #1 to #2. Now, go back outside and through the top door to find rations. If you take them, leave, and come back they'll be there again, but the maximum amount you can carry at this point is three. Now go back left until you get to a doorway. When you go in you'll see the familar roller. Wait for it to go left and quickly run out the bottom door. Go left again and go into the top-left door in the room to find the Remote Control Missle. Go all the way back. (you can pick up some more rations when you get back to where you were). Go up a screen. You'll get a call from Big Boss telling you that there's an electric floor that you'll have to put out with the Remote Control Missle. Go into weapons and take out your missles. Now steer them through the maze into the grey and purple thing (what it is I don't know). Now that it's safe, you can go up. The guard there are tricky. Use your best judgement to get around them. Take the right passage up. Lean right so the guard can't see you. If you go up the elevator you'll get a call from Big Boss. He says that you can't get through without a Bomb Blast Suit. You'll have to come back later. Naturally, you'll have to take the elevator below where you were. Don't go straight down from the very bottom floor or you'll be killed by a trap door (end tape). _______________________________________________________________________ =================== 2a. Version History =================== Version 1.0 ()- Started this FAQ, headed by me, Magician Type 0. ===================== 2b. About the Authors ===================== MAGICIAN TYPE 0 is a frequent contributor of reviews to GameFAQs. I write both reviews and FAQs. JAMES MALLOY has never submitted an independant work. However, he did work on my Dynamite Cop FAQ with me, and is working on an FAQ for the You vs. Boo part of Super Mario Brothers DX by himself. Good luck with that. ====================== 2c. How it was written ====================== It's quite simple. Either me or James was playing, and we'd record it on a VHS tape. ====================== 2d. Why it was written ====================== 1. I miss working on my Dynamite Cop FAQ, and this was a similar feeling. 2. The other FAQ was simply questions and answers. 3. I really love this game. _______________________________________________________________________ ==================================== 3a. Questions I'll answer beforehand ==================================== - Q: Where can I get a Metal Gear ROM and/or NES emulator? A: FROM SOMEONE OTHER THAN ME. If you email me this question I'll have you blocked from my email. - Q: Why not? A: 1. This guide would never be posted. 2. I don't like the idea. 3. If you want to play this game illegally I don't want to be a part of that. - Q: Can I help? How? Will I receive credit? A: Certainly! Email me at webmaster@casog.zzn.com with text/Moving GIF that helps and you will receive as much or as little recognition as you like. If you wish, I'll even put in a short, UNOFFENSIVE message that you write! - Q: How do I get past (insert game part here)? A: Wait until the next update. If it's not in this guide now I either don't know or will add the information shortly. - Q: I submitted a tip. Why isn't it anywhere in this guide? A: 1. It's already in the FAQ, 2. I already knew and the info will be in the next update, 3. I haven't looked at your email yet, or 4. It is and the latest update isn't up yet. - Q: Will this guide help me with the MSX version of Metal Gear? A: It should, they're basically the same. However, there are a few slight differences between the two, so don't send me nasty emails about it. ============================ 3b.
