The Boss - MGS3

Post by sicosis » Wed Apr 23, 2008 4:45 pm

hi, could anyone offer any foolproof suggestions on how to beat her? ive tried about 20 times and am losing patience. have tried sniping and i end up running out of time. RPG doesnt always register damage which can be infuriating. CQC is a bit fiddly [wha with the games' dodgy controls]. any easy way to beat her would be appreciated cos i hate unfinished games and i just wanna tick it off before mgs4 comes along!

Do you have all you weapons and stuff? I can't remember, it's been ages since I played it and when I did I had the Patriot. If you have all your guns then equip your thermal goggles and keep on the move, when you see her coming towards you then let rip! DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA! Eventually she will fall and you will rise, victorious from the lovely bed of flowers that holds her lifeless body.

ok a good tactic i found is.

you have to CQC at some point, get used to SMASHING (O) alot as she runs up to you.

Use your sniper rifle for the first half of it. From a distance, shell move slowly without her guard up, if ure hidden at the other end in the grass.

When u CQC - use the sniper rifle when u push her to the side and shoot her 2ce in the head. If she doesnt go to the side, just run off - dont try and engage again, shell kick ure ass without a counter available.

Whenever she falls to the ground, plant TNT and then run - just after she starts getting up. Blow up the TNT.

Wash, Rinse Repeat

I did this not long ago, hence its so fresh in my memoire.
hope it helps.

I find the non-lethal approch to be easier.

When she runs at you, counter her attack. CQ her, then kick the bitch in the head when shes down

Then run and hide behind a tree when she shoots at you.

Repeat til death

I did exactly that except shot her as much as possible when she was down.

awesome. thanks for the tips. will give them all a go. the CQC head-kicking suggestion looks the most satisfying considering she has schooled snake in every cutscene! if they dont work then i know im just shite

Plus you get the prize for doing it the non-lethal way. Just get the timing right for the counter attack and its easy

Dear all,

My method was to zig zag her then just use the CQC (ie beat her up) then run away,

Guns dont work much (unless ur playing the second time round with the patroit) but i used this method and it worked ok.

Even if you use the non-lethal approach on the bosses they all end up dying (bar Ocelot) :wink:

If you have any white camo, use it, she cant see you when you lie down but she glows like a christmas tree with thermal goggles on. Wait till she gets close then throw her to the floor (dont bother trying to hurt her in CQC youl get your ass handed back to you.) then shoot her in the head with your chosen weapon till she dosnt get back up again. You have to be fast to throw her down, but if you can always hit her first she should go down with minimal effort. Oh, and try to do it the non lethal way, you get goodies for it :)

Hence, it stops being non-lethal.
