Metal Gear 2 - Tips & Tricks Game control: Cursor key:Move player Space key:Fire weapon 'N' or 'M':Punch Space + 'N':Duck/Dive F1:Pause game F2:Select weapon F3:Select itemF4:Use radio F5:Save menu Use ID cards to go through doors that are locked. Select the ID card in the item menu (F3) and walk into the door. If the door doesn't open you have the wrong card number. Use Ratios to increase your health. Select a ration in the item menu and either press space to use it now, or hold it as an item to use it automatically when health is low. There are a lot of extra weapons and items that aren't needed for completing the game but that are much fun to use. Q: I just started the game. Where should I go? A: Find a hole in the fence and crawl through it. Q: Where do I find card 1? A: On the second floor of the first building. (use the elevator by punching the buttons) Q: Where do I get card 2? A: Defeat Black Color on the third floor of the first building. Q: Ok, so what now? What's the deal with this jungle? A: In the top left corner of the map of building one (the exit to the jungle) a Green Beret is walking around. Make sure he doesn't see you and he will walk into the jungle. Follow him to where Petrovich is held captive. Petrovich will knock on the wall. It's a knock code. Listen until it stops, then dial the frequency; 140.82 on the radio (F4). Q: How do I get the next card? A: Defeat Running Man on the other side of the swamp. If you want to know the path to get through it, look at my map of the jungle. Click here to look at it now. Q: But how do I defeat him? A: In the sand area are mines. Pick up mines by crawling over them. Pick up as many mines as you can and use them to defeat Running Man. You also need the Gas Mask. Remember you can go back outside to breathe in fresh air! Q: Ok now I need to get to the second building.. how? A: Go back to the first building and find the stinger missiles. With this you can defeat Hind-D. Q: I'm at the second building now but I can't get in... A: Use the cardboard box and hop onto the moving transport thing. Q: Now how do I find Horry White? Where is she held captive? A: In the basement, there is an empty room with a weak wall (find it by punching the wall). Use plastic bombs to blow up the wall and rescue her. She will give you card 4. Q: How do I kill Red Blaster? A: Use hand grenades. You can find hand-grenades in building 2. You will have to blow up walls to reach them, and you also need card 4. Q: What do I do with the bird? A: Kio Marv's dove likes Ratio B2. Select Ratio B2 and get the dove so you can read the message it has. After you read it, call Kio Marv on 140.51, then call Petrovich on 140.82. Q: Where do I find Natasha Marcova? A: Go back to building one and to the top floor. Find the dining room and make sure you don't kill ANYONE there because it could be Natasha Marcova (she is undercover). Wait until a guard enters the ladies' room and follow him (her). It's Natasha. Q: I have to get to building 3! But how? A: In building 1 you can get a delta flyer. You can use it to jump off at building 2's floor 20 and fly to building 3. Q: I got attacked in the elevator to floor 20! I can't reach floor 20 anymore!! A: You'll have to take the long route. Go to floor 10 and use the fire escape to get to floor 20! You need card 7 for this. Q: I'm afraid to fly! A: Smoke some cigarettes, and then jump over the edge. Q: What's the deal with the eggs? A: One contains a snake and one contains an owl. When the snake hatches it'll eat all your ratios. Try to catch it by clicking on it to get rid of it. Q: How do I get past building 3's laser barrier? A: Select the owl and wait near the laser barrier until it makes a sound. Q: What are the yellow spots on the floor? They kill me! A: They are Oilix. You can neutralize them by using Ratio B1. Q: That's great but I can't open the door. A: To find card 9 go back to where you defeated Predator and search in the top right area of the map. Card 9 is hidden there somewhere. Q: I defeated Petrovich, now how do I open the locker? A: Take the Zanzibar Land broche and go to the cooling cel in building one, the top floor in the dining room. Wait there until your broche freezes and you can use it as a key to open Petrovich's locker. Q: How do I kill the rats? A: Use Ratio B3 to lure them out, and then kill them as they appear. Q: Metal Gear set me on fire! What do I do? A: Get rid of ALL your items (every single one of them) and it will stop. Q: How do I defeat Big Boss? Punching?? A: No. Open all the doors and get all the items. You can use the bottle of gas with the lighter as a flame-thrower. That's all the problems I can see you having. General hints: - You can find out which walls you can blow up by punching them. They will make a different sound. - You can pick up mines by crawling over them. - If you have a cold, you can cure it by using the medicine. It's on the 4th floor of building 1. - In building 1 you can find combination cards. - If you are walking on metal, guards will hear your footsteps. You can avoid this by crawling. - You can get a casette tape by changing the Zanzibar Land broche into a key in the sauna. Then quickly use it to open one of the lockers before it cools down. - There is an item (looks like a bush of branches) that you can plant between walls. It looks like a white box, but you can use it to hide by crawling under it. - A sound test is available.
