==Mounted Weapons== | |||
There are a number of mounted weapons that you can use against the bad guys. To use them, walk up to them and press Triangle. | |||
===Heavy Machine Gun=== | |||
This powerful weapon can be found near some smaller outposts. It has a fairly good rate of fire, excellent power, and infinite ammo. Unfortunately, your aiming is limited while you're using it. | |||
===Anti-Aircraft Cannon=== | |||
These can be found on top of the mountain. They're excellent for shooting down helicopters and eliminating patrol routes with impunity. While they can aim nearly everywhere, it takes them a while to turn around, so you'll have to plan your attack carefully and start turning as soon as you can. | |||
==Explosives== | |||
Preferable when destroying supply sheds, weapons of mass destruction, evil bosses, or (preferably) guards and animals. If you're sick and twisted, anyway. | |||
===Grenades=== | |||
There are several kinds of grenades in MGS3. All of them are handled the same way - the harder you press Square, the farther the grenade is thrown. | |||
===Hand Grenade=== | |||
An explosive fragmentation grenade that is useful for throwing around corners, over low walls, into windows, or onto high platforms. | |||
===WP Grenade=== | |||
The white-phosphorus grenade will explode into flames, burning anything within its blast radius. Extremely satisfying. | |||
===Stun Grenade=== | |||
A non-lethal "flashbang" grenade that will stun and blind nearby enemies. Be careful, though - if you're looking at it when it goes off, you're going to be blinded too. | |||
===Smoke Grenade=== | |||
Useful for creating visual cover. Don't pretend that the guards won't see it, though. | |||
===Chaff Grenade=== | |||
While there are no security cameras, laser grids, or computer-driven tanks to be found in MGS3, the chaff grenades still have some use in disrupting electronics - namely, radios. Blow a chaff grenade in the area, and the enemy will be unable to call for backup. | |||
===TNT=== | |||
TNT is great for destroying supply sheds or blowing the doors off of lockers. | |||
'''Controls'''<br> | |||
* ''Square'' - Places a bundle of TNT on the wall or floor. | |||
* ''Circle'' - Detonates the TNT. | |||
===C3 Explosives=== | |||
You'll only get these from EVA on your return to Groznyj Grad. You need to use them to destroy the fuel tanks in the weapons lab. Do NOT waste these! | |||
==Other Equipment== | |||
These weapons aren't quite weapons in the traditional sense, but they merely appear here because they are found in the Weapons menu. | |||

== | ===Dirty Magazine=== | ||
Drop these in the middle of a patrol path and watch as the tough-as-nails security force is reduced to a complete pervert in a matter of seconds. | |||
'''Controls'''<br> | |||
* ''Square'' - Drop a free trial issue of Playboy on the ground. | |||
===Empty Clip=== | |||
As you use your weapons, you'll slowly amass a collection of these. Note that they won't appear if you always use tactical reloading. The empty clips from your guns can be used to distract guards by heaving them at walls. | |||
'''Controls'''<br> | |||
* ''Square'' - Toss a clip. The harder you press the button (and the faster you release it), the farther the clip will be thrown. | |||
=== | ===Food=== | ||
Collecting food doesn't just stick it in the Survival Viewer for eating. You can also equip the food to throw it at things. While most of you are probably thinking of food fights, the real reason to do this is to distract hungry dogs and guards (or poisoning bosses). If you've tranquilized the creature, even better - tossing their cage will free them again and allow them to do what they do best. For example, tossing a poisonous snake at a guard will cause them to run away in terror. | |||
'''Controls'''<br> | |||
* ''Square'' - Throws food. Like grenades, the throwing distance depends on how hard you press the button. | |||
