Master Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops with our comprehensive walkthrough. Learn how to recruit allies, manage your sneaking unit, and utilize skills effectively to complete the game.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Recruiting Allies: Knock out enemy soldiers, drag them to a truck or cardboard box before they wake up. They will be imprisoned and eventually join your unit. A Politician in your squad speeds up this process. Rescued soldiers and unique characters join immediately.
  2. 2
    Special Conditions for Recruitment: Some unique characters have specific recruitment conditions. Rescued soldiers, soldiers recruited via AP Scan, passwords (like the GAKO soldier or Zero), and those who join via Cyber-Survival will join immediately.
  3. 3
    Soldier Careers: Each soldier has a career that provides specific effects. Examples include Athlete (faster movement), Scout (faster stalking), Surveyor (detailed stage map), Spy/Agent (decreases enemy life), Arms Specialist (increases carried ammunition), Chemist (works on medicine development), and Politician (makes prisoners join more easily). These careers are best suited for specific units like Infiltration, Intelligence, Technical, Medical, or any unit for Politicians.
  4. 4
    Cyber-Survival Mode: Use your allies in Cyber-Survival mode via WLAN. Assign equipment and send them online. Check their condition after 12 hours. Analyze battle reports to improve strategy. You can capture enemies or have them join voluntarily, sometimes with gifts, but be aware of potential captures if you lose.
Tips
  • Having a Politician in your squad significantly speeds up the recruitment of imprisoned soldiers.
  • Be cautious when using Spy/Agent type soldiers, as their ability to decrease enemy life also affects your own recruits.
  • Do not send your favorite soldiers into Cyber-Survival mode, as they risk being captured if your unit loses.
  • Unique characters and rescued soldiers offer immediate recruitment benefits.
