The end of Act 2 was amazing. An expected guest (if one has seen the trailers) makes his arrival and has one of the best if not the best fight in Metal Gear history. The journey towards the end was also exciting and probably the best chase scene in the series. The rest of the act was fairly simple, point A to point B action where we learn about how to spot collateral damage on the field and find enemy tracks. Not to say it was boring, but it gave us time to see how great the in game graphics were. The F.R.O.G.S or Liquids private army made up of women that have suits which blend in so well that when I took out my gun to prepare to possibly take one down silently from a distance, I ended up holding up an enemy in front of me by accident! She was so camo’ed that if I had moved another inch I may have been dead, but luckly she was preparing to ambush me facing the other way.
The mid-boss fight was interesting and could have possibly been really hard because it was the first boss of the game, and she was fighting me in tight corners. But in fact it was slightly entertaining, because of her abilities and pretty easy. I could walk up to her and place C4′s everywhere around her and she would do nothing to prevent me from doing this except whip me once. Needless to say I wasted more rations on the F.R.O.G.S than her. These were the most interesting part of act 2, the beginning was in fact a little slow, but once it picks up the action never stops. Drebin and Naomi also plays a much larger role in this stage than he previously did, so prepare for more videos of him and Naomi. By the way I’m 15 hours in and on Act 3/5 and from the end of act 2 prespective I would rate act 1 8/10 and act 2 9/10.
