Guide to Metal Gear Solid: Navigate the cargo elevator, take down guards, and prepare for the intense mano-a-mano fight against Vulcan Raven. Includes tips for collecting ammo and finding hidden items.
Alright, so you've made it to a new area. Head through that big north door to get started.
Walkthrough
- 1You'll find yourself in a new area. Run forward, and you'll see the big cargo elevator making its way up to your floor. While you wait, grab the ammo packs scattered around this spot.
- 2Once the elevator stops, go to the control panel in the far-right corner and press the action key. Snake will start the elevator moving.
- 3Uh oh, looks like a couple of guards spotted Snake and jumped onto the elevator with him! You need to take them out fast. Equip the FA-MAS if you have it – it'll make quick work of them. If you're feeling brave, you can also try throwing them off the railing or using a punch combo to send them over. These guys can take a beating, so be ready for a bit of a fight.
- 4After you've dealt with the guards, the elevator will reach its destination. As soon as it stops, toss a Chaff Grenade. Then, quickly make your way to the right side of the screen where you'll see another elevator. You threw the grenade because there's a gun cam right in your path. Activate this second elevator and get ready to head down.
- 5During the descent, you'll get a pretty long and important codec call. Make sure to listen to it all.
- 6When the elevator ride is over, you'll emerge into a frozen-looking area with crows flying around. There's a big door at the north end, but don't rush in just yet. Before you go, check behind the containers in this area to find some missiles and a Ration.
- 7Once you're all set, enter the big door. Inside, Snake will come face-to-face with Vulcan Raven again. This time, he's on his feet, and it's a one-on-one fight!
Tips
- Don't forget to grab all the ammo packs before the first elevator arrives.
- The FA-MAS is your best bet for quickly dispatching the guards on the elevator.
- Tossing a Chaff Grenade before activating the second elevator is crucial to bypass the gun cam.
- Always check behind containers for hidden items like missiles and Rations before entering new areas.
