I think both Ocelot and the Pain are not CQC-able due to them being on an unreachable platform ;)Quote:

I went back to watch the rest of those guys videos because I thought that Hind D joke was pretty good only to find them disappointing besides the codec editingQuote:

What actually happened there? I understand he used the fake death pill then threw a stun grenade, but I can't understand wtf happened after that. How did he get the stamina kill so fast? Did the booby trap take him out?Quote:

Causing physical damage to The Fear while he's stunned hits his Stamina gauge. I've never seen it done that way - looks like the traps and CQC took him out. I instead just stand up and unload a round of the AK into him and that's enough to get a quick stamina kill too - and it's easier as you don't need to go to a specific place. He also stands up before I do, if you let the Fear speak for two more seconds he turns his back on you.
MGS3 is the only game I've speed run and I actually don't even know or remember how to fight The Fear without doing this.
Shoot at him until he dies.Quote:

Imo it would've been cooler to fight him in the Groznyj's main wing, making use of the terrain to get behind the Shagohod. Lost potential.
I also never really liked the escorting part and I never bother trying stealth because Eva has the reflexes of a pancake.
As far as Shagohod not feeling like a threat, it is meant to be a nuclear equipped, highly mobile tank. That doesn't lend itself to being the best anti-infantry hardware out there.
Frankly REX was the only decent Metal Gear battle in the series. The first one was more of a puzzle, the second one went down fairly quickly with a grenade launcher, Ray was a bit too simple and the sheer volume of them called for it to be a more simple fight than it should. Shaghod is fairly easy and boring, the REX Vs RAY fight is pure fanservice and the less said about the PSP entries the better.
Only REX really hit that nice balance of being simple in strategy to beat but you also had to be on your toes cause one wrong move would get you killed.
I thought the Metal Gear Zeke battle in Peace Walker was pretty fun but I might have been caught up with the song
I can see the logic but it still makes for an uninteresting boss fight imo. MGS can go over the top in many ways with great success, but the creativity is lacking in this fight.Quote:
