lol, or "hard mode and the rest of the game"

[ssjtrunks13]

THat's agoo one,. but I like the sound of "HARD mode and beyond" better. I think that would make more sense because not once did we talk about Normal and below.

[dan da man]

Yea, I think i will do hard mode on substance (its the same thing) and see what you went threw trunks.

Now I'm stuck on the metal gears. I always get to destroying three of the Metal Gears and then I die. I need some serious help. Vamp gave me some trouble, the first fight, but not as much as the annoying Metal Gear RAYs. During the Vamp fight I found the perfect place to shoot at his head. About 'Big Boss' rank I will post the requirements here.

Chapter: Tanker/Plant
Mode: Extreme
Time: Under 3 hours
Damage: No Requirement ?
Shots: Under 700 ?
Alerts: 3
Clear caution modes: 0
Kills: 0
Mech destruction: Under 60 ?
Continue: 0
Rations: 0
Saves: 8 or less
Radar: Off
Special Items: Off
Dog Tags: No Requirement

*There they are, personally I don't see it possible.

Yea it does look impossible, but under 3 hours on the plant chapter thats sounds hard, you would have to skip all the cut-scenes and codec call which i could not do, thats why i like metal gear becuase of the sweet cut-scenes and codec calls, all the suspence, its really good!

[ssjtrunks13]

ARe you saying you wouldn't want to skip the cut-scenes? and Did you just play extreme?

Yes, you would have to do that, but it's not just a matter of beating bosses fast, but there's also the shot requirement, having the radar turned off, damage, and using no special items.

you are right, all those things and the radar is my biggest help! the guards are like bosses and there would be more!

The only extreme I tries is the European one! its just so hard! the first bit had going at it forabout a hour! I just got upto when fortune kills the seal team 10 cut-scene (correct me if im wrong)

When i get substance for ps2 im going to do all the VR missions and train for European extreme and finally beat it

btw are you getting substance? becuase this time your version has casting thearter and Euro Extreme and all the other stuff!!!!!!!

EDIT: trunks has the writing on your screen just gone small?

No, Why do you ask? If you mean your's has you can make it bigger by going to 'View' and then 'text size'.

What's casting thetre? So, the extreme in North America is different form the european version. , Yes I was planning on getting it for PS2. How did you find out about the special features? I couldn't find a thing.

Its just that the font for the whole size has reshaped to a samller font!

Casting thearter is where you can put diffent characters in diffrent places in a cut-scene for example when vamp kills the navy seals you can have solid snake as vamp, radiens as the nave seals, when pliskin comes in he can be fortune, you just mess about like that! also there's boss survival!

the North American and European are diffrent, (well not that diffrent just more stuff with the European pal version) yours was rushed in time for christmas while us watied till march where konami had the extra time to put extra stuff on for our version. but you get what we got in substance.

[ssjtrunks13]

Cool, too bad they had to cut out the part with the Twin Towers of the world trade center. I was looking forward to that. Maybe they'll make a remake some time after we've moved on from the 9/11 attacks. I'm hoping.

[dan da man]

Yea that was dissapointing news, thats what delayed the game so bad!

[ssjtrunks13]

Where are you in Extreme? and have you played hard? If so I was wondering if you could tell me how to get past the second part where solidus starts to suck up your oxygen.

[dan da man]

Im not that far yet, so he's giveing you trouble, il try and find out what the tips are.

[ssjtrunks13]

Thanks, It just seems so impossible. The first time he does it is very easy, but this second time I don't think I ever got through half of it.

[mark0™]

Ask yor friends if they have a controller with Rapid Fire funtion so that you can set the controller to press the same button very fast. Thats the only tip I can give you there, or find a freind whos great a button bashing.

[dan da man]

Trunks I asked some people on the net and all they said is that you have to have lighting fast fingers!

Hope that helps you.

[ssjtrunks13]

I kinda figured that you would need to have lightning fast fingers, which would mean I'm great at button mashing. Saddly, I'm not that great and my older brother is worse than me. Oh, I don't know anyone with a rapid fire controller and if I did I still would like to do it myself to feel like I've accomplished something. I guess I'll have to keep trying even if it takes me over fifty tries. Thanks anyway.

[ssjtrunks13]

I have great news. I finally found a way to get past the rest of the game. For the part I was stuck at I took my index finger and shook it back and forth over the action button. I thought this deserved a new post on it's own, sorry.
