Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker/Investigate The Supply Facility

An armed group is secretly occupying Costa Rica. One of their bases - where Paz was held and from where she managed to escape - has been identified and is your best source of intel for finding out who these people are and why they're here.


 * Infiltrate and gather intel in the enemy supply facility.

Bosque del Alba
The mission proper begins here. From this point forward, the mission timer is running. There's no reason to go back to Playa del Alba.

Press to open the Start Menu and consult your map. You should consult your map every time you enter a new area.



There's also no reason to interact with any of the enemy soldiers; the best path avoids them altogether. Simply move north and turn east before you move into the northern alcove with the Grenades. Keep moving east until you reach a small ledge after a fallen log.



Tap to roll up the ledge or just run against it to make Snake climb it automatically. Often, the game will register your tap as a press, so you'll get better results out of double-tapping.
 * 1. Remember Your Training

Keep moving east until you reach a small series of ledges and turn north. As you approach a fallen log with Soldier C nearby, gently turn northeast to reach the next area.

Puerto del Alba
The supply facility from where Paz escaped is here. Security is tighter than in the Jungle; there are three enemy soldiers patrolling the staging area and a fourth up the stairs of the admin building to the east edge of Puerto del Alba. To avoid detection, you'll need to stop and watch enemy patrols for the coast to be clear before moving forward. Move past the fence and turn north to start.



Consult your map. You'll want to keep the camera pointed to the east as you go past the gate and turn north to the first set of containers. There, move to the northeast corner of the container.



Face the corner until an Action Icon appears. Press and hold to press Snake against the container. Then, press and hold to zoom the camera onto Soldier E and watch his movements. Watch him turn around and walk south and out of your line of sight. Get off the container.
 * 1. Wait for Soldier E.

Round the corner and move east in a straight shot to the east-most container. Try to follow the yellow line on the ground. The staircase up to the admin building should be straight ahead. Soldier E should be out of earshot as you move.



At this point, press yourself against the corner with and observe Soldier G up on the patio of the admin building. Watch him until he passes the bottom part of the staircase. One he does, you can get off the wall and move up the stairs, turn north and move straight to your goal.
 * 2. Wait for Soldier G.

The graphic novel cutscene will have interactive elements, so watch for the button prompts. Press to engage the radioman. Mash to submit him. After a brief interrogation, Snake will get distracted and you'll have to press again to throw the radio man into a stack of boxes and follow up with a  to hit him with the Stun Rod.
