The first one is the Boost Stage. It starts at the point the missile is launched and ends after all the rocket fuel is burned and the missile is propelled into the exosphere. The next stage is the Post-Boost Stage. It starts after all the fuel is burned and ends after the re-entry vehicle is ejected. Next is the Intermediate Course Stage. It takes place after the re-entry vehicle is ejected and lasts until the missile enters the exosphere. Then comes the Final Stage. It starts when the re-entry vehicle enters the exosphere and it lasts until it reaches its ultimate target on the ground.
Missile defense systems use military satellites to detect rocket emissions during the initial Boost Stage of a missile. But this new nuclear weapon employs the rail gun's ability to fire projectiles at ultra-high velocities, instead of using a rocket. That's why it can't be detected by today's missile defense systems! And on top of that, the re-entry vehicle also uses Stealth technology It's so accurate that its fifty percent zone comes close to 50 meters.
That's as good as the best ICBM. Snake: A highly accurate, undetectable, uninterceptable nuclear weapon. We wouldn't even be able to tell where it came from Otacon: And that's not all. A standard ballistic missile uses a 2-stage or a 3-stage solid fuel rocket for its propulsion system. Besides costing lots of money, safely maintaining the solid rocket fuel and readying the missile for launch requires a lot of work.
But a railgun-launched nuclear warhead avoids all of those problems. And it's cheap too. To initiate this conversation, answer the auxiliary Codec call when nearing the control room.
Otacon: No, I haven't found out about the override system yet, but I found Baker's ulterior motive. Solid Snake: I know they lost their bid to make the next-generation fighter jet. That plus the reduction in SDI spending Otacon: Just wait a little longer. I found out a lot about the arms industry though Naturally, the arms industry was severely affected.
It resulted in an orgy of mergers and acquisitions. Some of the big arms conglomerates today are made up of what 10 years ago would have been 20 or more smaller arms companies. ArmsTech is one of those. But we lost our bid to produce the US Air Force's next line of fighter jets. Then we took a stab at civilian applications, but that was a failure too. The company was about to go belly up. Ironically, the Defense Department was in pretty much the same situation.
Thanks to big budget cuts, they were forced to turn to the private sector to help fund their weapons development. On top of that, the government began to actively export their advanced weapons technology to the private sector in order to maintain a high standard of quality in the country's defense armaments.
Eventually they decided on a joint development project for new weapon systems between the DOD and the private sector. And since both sides were in such bad financial shape, that's where all the backscratching came in. So there was another reason for the joint development of Metal Gear, huh. It wasn't just President Baker trying to keep ArmsTech afloat Otacon: Well then she must still be in there.
Is there any place she might be hiding in there? Otacon: Stealth camouflage. A technology I developed Stealth camouflage works by bending the light around the user in such a way that they're rendered nearly invisible. But if you had thermal goggles, you'd be able to see him. Anyway, you can't see him with your naked eyes, but there must be some way to make him show up. Otacon: Mantis had incredible power Maybe that power could have been used to make people happy.
It's a sad thing when you see all that power being used just for war. Snake: Meryl's been shot Otacon: Did you use the ketchup? It took me a long time to find that. It's exactly the right color and consistency too. Use it wisely, okay? Otacon: What's wrong, Snake? You caught a cold? I think there's some in the commander's room. There's a pharmaceutical storage room in the southwest of the 1st floor basement There are other types of drugs there too.
I gave directions to another soldier who had caught a cold. Otacon: It's impossible to open from the inside. They always use C4 or something from the outside Otacon: Sorry, it's impossible. But don't worry, you'll get through. There are two walkways that connect Tower A and Tower B.
The other one's on the roof. You should just use the walkway on the roof. Otacon: Hmm. Well you can't relax 'cause there's an elevator in Tower B. That walkway will take you to Tower B. Snake: The elevator is stopped at a lower floor and it won't come up. Is there some way to get to an elevator that will take me down further? Otacon: Can you see to the west of the blast furnace? You see that crane? I think if you go down those steps, you'll get to the other side. Otacon: That elevator is for transporting vehicles and building materials to the underground maintenance base.
Otacon: The elevator you're on right now is the No. That elevator won't take you down all the way, so you'll have to switch to the No. Otacon: Well, for a long time it had been set up so that you could take one elevator all the way to the bottom, but I heard that they changed it because of something to do with the structural integrity of the rock. The No. Transfer to that one. Otacon: Ravens You got me. There were ravens around from before.
It's really weird. I wonder what it could mean Otacon: That room is still under construction because their main priority was to finish Metal Gear's underground base.
But the good thing is, with all those containers, it should be easy to hide, right? Otacon: I can't really blame Dr. I feel sorry for her Ever since I was a little kid, I always hated my first name. Otacon: Yeah But I'm not a computer, I'm a human My grandfather taking part in the Manhattan Project I hated every part of that.
My name, my father, my grandfather. It felt like all those things were a ball and chain around my legs, dragging me down.. But now that I think about it, I realize that I was blessed.
At least I know who I am But Dr. Naomi didn't even know who her parents were, what her real name was. She must have been a very lonely little girl Sorry, Snake. I guess right now you should focus on re-inputting those PAL codes. Otacon: Snake, Rex's armor is impregnable. You can't do any damage with the weapons you've got.
Rex uses the latest advances in compound armor. The only way you can pierce it is with a high-performance HEAT high-explosive, antitank round. Otacon: Rex's pilot seat operates exactly like a VR system. It's got multiple sensors connected to a high-tech interface used for the controls.
It's completely self-enclosed and shut off from the outside environment. Otacon: That's right. So if you could somehow destroy the sensors Do you see that round plate on Rex's left arm? Otacon: That's a radome. If you can destroy that thing, it won't be able to use its electronic equipment.
Otacon: The part that looks like a beak is where the pilot seat is. In an emergency it will open up. Rex's armor is perfect. You can't destroy it. Snake: I get it First I destroy the radome. That will force him to open up the pilot's seat. Otacon: Right. If you can shoot a missile into the cockpit, you'll destroy the computer control system. Otacon: I saw it in President Baker's top secret files. Rex has a free electron laser mounted on its belly.
It's a laser weapon that discharges a laser beam into an electron beam that's been accelerated using giant magnets. It can generate an incredible amount of energy That's ten times greater than any other laser out there.
Otacon: Rex is equipped with antitank missiles on both of his knees. They're a laser semi-active homing type that doesn't use wires. The shooter uses a laser illuminator to bounce a laser beam off the target. After that, the missile uses the light reflected off the target to home in on it. Fortunately, the missiles are tipped with HEAT rounds and not antipersonnel warheads.
But if they hit you directly, you'll be sorry. Be careful. Otacon: The rail gun uses magnetism to fire projectiles. By perfecting the process of shell acceleration, the rail gun is able to fire a projectile with a muzzle velocity of over kilometers per second.
It's ironic that now it's gonna be used to deliver a nuclear warhead Otacon: Rex is the first actual prototype model, but they've been doing virtual prototyping for a while now.
They pop it into a VR simulation while it's still in the design phase. That way they can make improvements to the design while testing it under all sorts of simulated conditions. So even though it's a prototype, it's extremely well designed. Be careful! To initiate this conversation, contact Otacon after successfully using the ketchup to escape from the prison cell. Otacon: If you're looking for your items, they're near where you were being tortured. Why don't you go get them?
Otacon: Are you in the boiler room? Those pipes are really old. Once in a while they blow out steam, so be careful. Campbell: Snake, don't forget this is a cover operation.
There are lots of bad guys and only one of you. If you're spotted, you'll be surrounded before you know it. Campbell: First go to the elevator in the back and take it up to the ground floor.
Campbell: Snake, when you're up against certain walls or obstacles, you can look behind you while you're still hidden. We call that Corner View Mode. Use it skillfully to see the openings in your enemy's actions and avoid being spotted while advancing. Campbell: Snake, when you're in First Person View Mode, you can step to the right by pressing the R1 button or step to the left by pressing the L1 button.
Naomi: Yes. But remember that when you step out of the shadows you'll be easier to spot. So if you're in danger, let go of the button and get back into the shadows in a hurry, alright? To initiate this conversation, answer the auxiliary Codec call when nearing a ventilation duct. Campbell: That base must have some kind of ventilation system to recirculate the air. There should be air ducts around there somewhere.
They need a lot of power to run the base. There's probably a diesel generator somewhere. And since generating electricity requires oxygen, there must be exhaust openings for that too. You're not going to believe this, but they shot down the Fs we were using as a diversion Then we got a message from Liquid.
He said if we try something like that again, he'll launch the nuke! Snake, hurry up and get in there! That Hind will be coming back soon. Campbell: Snake, your mission is to infiltrate, not to fight. Don't let the enemy see you. Infiltrate the building in front. Look for some way to get in. Campbell: Don't make too much noise or you'll be spotted. Be careful when you're walking on that floor. Campbell: Use the elevator to change floors. There should be a cargo elevator that you can take down somewhere around here.
Try to find it. Campbell: Snake, use the elevator to move from floor to floor. To call the elevator, press the button on the nearby control panel by pressing the Action Button. The elevator should show up in no time. Naomi: Snake! Look at your radar! Mei Ling: Can you see the green dot flashing on your radar? That's coming from the transmitter in the Chief's body. That's where you'll find him.
Campbell: It looks like the Chief is being held in a cell. Find some way to get in there. Hurry up and get him out. Roy Campbell: Snake, if you want to go up or down a ladder, just press the Action Button by the ladder. Approach the ladder and press the Action Button to climb it.
Roy Campbell: A tank can't operate by itself. It's actually a fairly delicate weapon. Don't worry. You've got at least a fighting chance. Ask Nastasha what she thinks. To initiate this conversation, call Campbell after being attacked on the communications towers' connecting bridge.
Roy Campbell: First find out where the enemy is. Use your binoculars, then use your sniper rifle or something with a longer range than an ordinary weapon. Naomi: Snake, Psycho Mantis has the power to read people's minds. Hurry up or he'll get Baker's code too Roy Campbell: That's right.
If the terrorists get Baker's code, they'll be able to launch that nuke anytime they want. Snake: Yeah, they'll use Metal Gear to do it Colonel, did you know they were conducting a military exercise here using Metal Gear?
Roy Campbell: Snake, you've got to understand. I'm just the middleman in this operation. Anyway, hurry up and get to the 2nd-floor basement! You've got to save the ArmsTech president before the terrorists find out his code. Naomi Hunter: Revolver Ocelot is a former member of Spetsnaz. But according to my sources, he was dissatisfied with the rigid system of the KGB and wanted to get out. He's a gun fanatic totally obsessed with cowboy movies and spaghetti westerns.
Campbell: Yeah, he had plenty of practice. In a gunfight, reloading is usually the most dangerous time. But he loves it. Use that to your advantage. You'll have to take him out when he's reloading. Can you see where his number of remaining bullets is displayed on the screen? Wait for the right moment and then take him out! Roy Campbell: Make sure President Baker doesn't get hurt. If he's killed, it's all over.
Try not to cross over that yellow line or you might set off the explosion. Roy Campbell: If you get too close to Ocelot, he'll run away and shoot you from a distance. So be careful. Roy Campbell: Snake, don't forget that President Baker is there. He's wrapped up in C4, so don't use any type of explosive near him.
To initiate this conversation, contact Roy Campbell while standing next to a sleeping Genome Soldier at the tank hangar. Roy Campbell: Even though the Genome Soldiers are strengthened by gene therapy, they still need to sleep. You can move safely while they're napping. Naomi Hunter: The Genome Soldiers were specially trained so they can enter into a light sleep any time and still remain in attack posture.
Be careful not to make noise when you're near them. Campbell: When they're yawning, their eyes are closed, so they shouldn't be able to see you. Be careful with your timing and you'll be okay. Snake: Colonel, I got a Codec call from someone outside this operation! Roy Campbell: I know. We were monitoring the call. Mei Ling knows everything about the communications system, so let me have her explain it to you.
Mei Ling: Well, if somebody knows your frequency, they can call you. But the question is how did he learn it Mei Ling: I'm sorry. The radio waves were too weak to locate their source. But I'm sure he's near you Snake: What's this pile of corpses!? It looks like they were all slashed by some kind of sword. To initiate this conversation, contact Roy Campbell while fighting the Cyborg Ninja.
Naomi's remark at the end of the call foreshadows her knowledge of the Cyborg Ninja's identity. And finally, Liquid Snake. Roy Campbell: Snake, it's gas! Hold your breath! Your O2 Gauge should appear underneath your Life Gauge. If you don't breathe, the gauge will decrease. When it reaches zero, your Life Gauge will begin decrease. Try to find a Gas Mask. Naomi Hunter: The gas that's being dispersed is probably an organic phosphorus-based nerve gas.
It destroys the nervous system by interfering with the breakdown of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter. And you don't have to breathe it in for it to kill you. It can enter your body through skin contact as well. Victims die within fifteen minutes of the onset of symptoms such as nausea, perspiration, convulsions, headache, or difficulty with breathing.
Your Sneaking Suit will give you some protection. It's made of a material similar to that which the NBC soldiers use. Also, I injected you with nanomachines that contain PAM protopan chloride , a nerve gas neutralizing agent. But that will only give you temporary protection. You'd better find a Gas Mask! Naomi: It's a benzodiazepam based anti-anxiety drug.
It has a strong effect on the central nervous system and it's often used as a psychotropic drug. Naomi: Anti-anxiety drugs are also effective as muscle relaxants. They're widely used to treat psychosomatic disorders such as autonomic ataxia or as pre-anesthetics to relax patients before an operation. Snake: She went in the ladies' bathroom.
That's strange. I saw her go in, but now she's nowhere to be found. Snake: I get it. All the world's a stage and we're merely players, right?
To initiate this conversation, contact Campbel after the cutscene which shows Meryl becoming possessed by Psycho Mantis. Naomi Hunter: Snake, do you hear something that sounds like a song? Naomi Hunter: You're seeing what he's seeing. It's a result of his telepathic powers. Maybe you can use that to find him! Naomi Hunter: That's Psycho Mantis He has powerful telepathic abilities. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, he came to America looking for a job. He worked with the FBI on several cases as a psychic profiler.
Five years ago he was working on the case of a multiple serial murderer As a result, he became just like the killer. Naomi: In any case, after that he became a sort of a psychic spy working for the highest bidder. He travelled all around the world. He can read people's minds. He knows every move that you're going to make. Everyone knows that women have more patience than men, but Sniper Wolf can go for a whole week with no sleep, no food And on top of that, she takes diazepam, so that her hands never tremble.
He was raised as a shaman and they say he has supernatural powers. In , he was demoted by President Yeltsin following his coup d'etat.
So he fled the country and became a mercenary. After that, he joined those rent-a-war bastards at Outer Heaven Inc. He stayed there until he joined us in Fox Hound, thanks to a strong recommendation from Revolver Ocelot. Roy Campbell: That cannon he's holding is a 20 millimeter Vulcan gun.
You usually see them mounted on fighter planes. You can't take him on in a fire fight. He'll make mincemeat of you. Naomi: He's not just strong, Snake. He's a graduate emeritus from Alaska University, so he's a quick thinker, too. Campbell: In any case, you'd better not try to attack him from the front. Normal weapons are no match for his 20 millimeter Vulcan.
Try to attack him from the sides or behind. Naomi: Didn't you know that cigarettes contain benzopyrene, a chemical that leads to lung cancer? We now know that when benzopyrene enters the body, it changes to benzopyrene diolepoxide BPDE and attaches to the receptors on the P53 gene, the gene that causes lung cancer.
The BPDE attaches to the P53 gene in three specific locations and causes precancerous changes to the lung tissue. Snake: You know a lot about science, but you don't know how good a cigarette tastes in the morning. Roy Campbell: Great job with the guard , Snake.
Now is your chance to escape. Snake: That Deepthroat 's a real enigma. He's definitely from inside their ranks. Campbell: Is he an informer? Maybe some kind of renegade? I've got the feeling there's some other force at work here.
Campbell: There's no airport on the base, so it's hard to bring in supplies. They must have built a blast furnace so they could make building materials and such. Naomi: I'm monitoring you via the nanomachines Your body temperature is elevated and your lymph nodes are slightly swollen.
But don't worry, it appears to be just a mild rhinovirus. Snake: I guess I got it from that soldier. Naomi: Sorry, Snake. The nanomachines don't carry antibiotics. It contains natural antibiotics, you know. Vitamins and minerals too. Campbell: There must be some cold medicine somewhere on the base.
That would make you feel better. If not, you'll just have to wait until your body's natural defenses take over. Naomi: Snake, I'm monitoring you closely. Your heart rate is elevated and your breathing is shallow. Campbell: What's the matter, Snake? You out of shape from all that dog mushing? Then climb down and proceed north. Campbell: You'll have to destroy that Hind, Snake.
You can see the Hind on your radar screen. Even if you lose visual contact, you can always check his position by radar. Roy Campbell: You'll have to destroy that Hind, Snake. Use your ears, Snake.
You should be able to tell where he's coming from by the sound of his rotor blades. Snake, you're not using a stereo TV!? I guess you're right. Snake, don't worry about it. There's more to being a good person than just having a stereo television. You can do it just the way you are! Roy Campbell: A sad story.
We shouldn't have turned our backs on the Kurds after the Gulf War Snake: Listen. We're not responsible for her choices. Everyone decides their own fate, no matter where they were born. Words like fate, karma Naomi Hunter: I don't agree with you. Maybe if she hadn't been born on a battlefield, she might have had a happier, more fulfilling life. She might not have turned into a killer Campbell: There's no airport on the base.
So it's hard to bring in supplies. Snake: The entrance to the underground base is further below. There should be a cargo elevator that you can take down somewhere around there. Roy Campbell: Watch out for the steam. It's dangerous. Use your First-Person View to see where the steam is coming out and then avoid it. Roy Campbell: Snake, if it's about Naomi, I'm looking into the matter right now.
Give me a little more time. Snake: I can't believe it What the hell is going on here? I suppose you're going to tell me you don't know anything, right? Snake: A madman is threatening the world with a nuclear weapon. I guess that's what I should worry about now Roy Campbell: She's being interrogated, Snake. Leave her to me. You just worry about stopping Metal Gear. Roy Campbell: Metal Gear is straight down. Better move it!
There's no time. The terrorists are ready to launch. Why is the White House being so inflexible? Colonel, is there still something you're hiding from me? Roy Campbell: Destroy Metal Gear! We're out of time!
If you can't do it, I'll have to resort to my last option. Roy Campbell: I know God rest his soul. Even a soldier needs more to live for than just fighting. Maybe if he had found something else, he wouldn't have been so haunted Snake: He was too simple There was nothing in this world for him to believe in Snake: Yeah. But if you ask me, there's no happiness to be gained in death I'm gonna leave here alive. This was used in case the player enables contact with Roy Campbell despite him being under arrest.
However, it ended up cut. To initiate this conversion, call Master Miller while running on a noisy floor. Master Miller: Snake, that floor is designed so that your footsteps echo. Listen, Snake. There's a way to walk so that your footsteps won't be heard. I call it stalking. Here's how you do it. First, put your weight on the opposite foot that you're going to step with.
Then take a step so that your heel makes contact with the ground first. Then as you slowly lower the tip of your foot to the floor, gradually shift your weight onto that foot. Use your knees to maintain the subtle balance. Try it. Master Miller: The weather in Alaska is very hard to predict. It can change on a dime. A lot of people say it's the worst weather in the world.
Master Miller: It's never a good idea to fight on too full a stomach. It'll make you groggy You should wait thirty minutes after eating before you play. Master Miller: Where I come from, a soldier who loses his head in combat is called a "target. Master Miller: People's reaction speed is slowest around three o'clock in the morning, and so is their judgment.
If you're feeling drowsy, you should get some sleep. Master Miller: It's also important to be able to control your bodily functions. You never know when a long demo is about to begin, so make sure you're prepared to sit in front of the monitor for a long time if necessary. Master Miller: Military C-rations place an emphasis on calories. That's why it's best to use them along with some other type of nutritional supplement such as vitamins or minerals.
Master Miller: Soldiers who have learned their trade in the heat of real combat know how to sleep whenever and wherever they can. There's a big difference between them and the kids who have only been exposed to VR-simulation training.
After playing for a long time, you should get some rest too. Master Miller: Snake, you've got to think. Your mind is your most dangerous weapon. If things are getting too complicated, try to simplify your thoughts. You can also try calling Campbell for advice.
Master Miller: The muzzle velocity of a bullet fired from a revolver is slower than one fired from an automatic. That's bad for you. The slower a gun's muzzle velocity, the more damage it does. That's 'cause the bullet will tend to lodge in the body instead of going right through. Those kinds of wounds take a long time to heal. Sometimes they never do. I think that's part of the reason he likes that gun. He's a real sick puppy, that Ocelot The biggest drawback to a revolver is the reload time.
That's your chance! Master Miller: Getting the maximum use of ordinary on-hand objects is the first principle of survival. It's especially important for covert operations. Master Miller: Well He's in the 2nd floor basement, isn't he? Master Miller: No But there's definitely something going on. Keep your eyes open out there. Master Miller: People who have been through war and survived develop a kind of sixth sense to warn them of danger. Trust your instincts as a soldier As a gamer Master Miller: In war, a split second can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
Don't ever hesitate. The slower you react, the greater the chance that you'll be beaten. Master Miller: That inner voice that warns you when danger is nearby You can't learn that in training. You've got to have survived a few firefights Master Miller: When you're trying to hide, avoid places that look like the enemy might search. Think about how your enemy is going to move and then sneak in there. It doesn't matter how smart you are, just use your head out there.
Master Miller: Snake, that's probably some type of nerve gas. It's extremely lethal. Use a gas mask. This codec is used if the player proceeds to try and skip the Psycho Mantis battle and calls Miller.
To initiate this conversation, contact Master Miller in the Cave after encountering a wolf dog. Master Miller: Those are wolf dogs in there. Just like their name, they're a cross between huskies and Alaskan wolves. They were bred to be used as sled dogs.
Snake: They were trying to create an animal that would combine the gentleness of a dog with the endurance and ferocity of a wolf. But they didn't get the stamina and power they were hoping for. On top of that, their personalities wound up closer to wolves. Most of them won't even let you get close. That's why they never caught on. And after they outlawed the use of hybrids in dogsled races in , no one even wanted to breed them anymore.
I heard that most of them were put to sleep after that Master Miller: Yes, but some of the wolf dog pups that were thrown away went wild. I've heard that wild wolf dogs hunt in packs just like wolves. Better be careful. Master Miller: When you're fighting in the dark, you need to use your sense of hearing and smell. Don't trust your eyes; use your ears. Feel the flow of the air with your whole body. That's the way to tell where your enemy is.
Master Miller: Don't suddenly look into the dark. Look slowly from a light area to a darker area. If you do that, your eyes will gradually adjust, and you'll be able to see better in the dark. Try not to play in the dark either. Master Miller: The most important tools you need to be a good sniper are the senses that you were born with.
No amount of training can change those. If your senses are dull from the beginning, you'll never be a great sniper. Master Miller: According to the SWAT manual, the longest a shooter can stay adequately focused on his target is fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes, the observer and the shooter change places.
Sniping is usually a two-man job. Master Miller: It looks like your target is stationary. If you've had enough practice, it shouldn't be a difficult shot. Master Miller: The scope of a sniper rifle is extremely powerful. On the other hand, it's got a very narrow field of vision. If you're searching for your enemy's position, it'd be better to use your binoculars. Master Miller: You're as good as ever, Snake. Not only are you an expert at infiltration, but you're a skilled marksman, too. But never relax until you confirm a kill with your own two eyes.
Master Miller: Normally, when a soldier is taken prisoner, he should only give up the "big four. But you're not any old soldier, Snake. I don't want you to tell them anything.
Fortunately, you're strong enough to resist. Master Miller: Don't say anything to tease or anger the person torturing you. PCG contacted Konami to ask a few questions about the timing and what to expect. The publisher wouldn't comment on the timeframe or if the games will be changed in any way until they return. I asked if the licensed footage was referring to the various clips that are intercut with in-game footage: both MGS2 and MGS3 feature news clips of, for example, John F.
Kennedy and historical events like the Cuban Missile Crisis. Konami confirmed this is correct but wouldn't get into the specifics. The timing of this lines up with Konami having agreed year deals for the initial releases: MGS2 will celebrate its 20th anniversary on November 13, five days from now. It's probably the case that, when Konami realised this was coming up, it just decided to deal with the issue in MGS3 at the same time it was released almost exactly three years after MGS2.
Whether the publisher will return the games to sale in a timely manner, and in what form, remains to be seen: but these are some of the most important titles in big budget history, and should certainly be available on PC.
