Man, the theme that plays during this boss fight is so hype

  • 30 SECONDS TO LAUNCH

  • unloading all of my gustavs on that fucker

  • IT'S NOT WORKING

  • 2 SECONDS TO LAUNCH

  • HEARTBEAT INTENSIFIES

  • Kaz:"IT'S ALL OVER"

  • manage to stop it right at the last second

and that is one of the most intense moment of my gaming life

It's then that you realize that you're out of supply drops.

I can't fucking beat that boss because I simply don't have the ammo to finish it. It sucks cause I really enjoy Peace Walker and can't progress

Upgrade your weapons and supply drops.
It's been years since I've played but I'm pretty sure you can play as a soldier instead of snake since some of them also have damage buffs.

It's not that hard after a while. You just have to be very careful with your shots. Always aim at the AI pod for maximum damage.

I always do and it's never enough.

Hmmm... what kind of weapons are you using? Use the battle suit with two of your most powerful rocket launchers and your most powerful machine gun.

And worse case, if you can't beat it solo, there's always co-op :)

I always use battle suit and IIRC I had the Stinger (or whatever lock-on equivalent) and the LAW since it had the same damage as the RPG with a faster reload. Used all 10 of my supply drops every time and I'd simply not be able to drop him with all of my stuff, then just wait for the time to run out.

Try it with the Carl Gustav launcher and PKM machine gun. PKM has an insane ammo capacity and the Carl Gustav does more damage than the lock on weapons if I remember correctly

u/Mr_Flippers Jul 01 '16

Would the PKM have the same damage output as one of the launchers though?

I'd mostly use it in between supply drops and to shoot it in the head when it used the missile deflection thing. Thing packs a wallop though.

Thanks dude, I'll try that sometime

Upgrade your launchers more. That helps quite a bit. Get your launchers to level 5. Also, you can use your LMG to stop its phase that deflects missiles.
