It's an original copy of MGS3:Subsistence for the ps2 and not the trilogy remaster.

I'm starting a Hard difficulty MGS3 run to get a better feel for the way it works and will hopefully get a FOX rating, but I intend to do European extreme afterwards, if I can get some advice for FOX/FOXHOUND rating on that difficulty? I've looked at other forums but it's mainly tips involving 'cheese.'

Cheese tips are fine, but if you can give legitimate strategies I'd be eternally greatful.

I did European extreme not long ago with save States on an emulator for funsies and it really just comes down to having a very good knowledge of the map and knowing roughly where the guards are going to be. The jungle gives you enough breathing room that you should be able to clear those sections without tearing your hair out but there were sections in groznyj grad that were a serious pain in the arse even with instant reloads so take that as you will.

Most of the tools are useful to some extent, like the thermals for picking out guards. The Cardboard box basically allows you to crouch run like in later games at the expense of sticking out like a sore thumb, it can be useful in a couple sections to quickly run behind low obstacles.

The most trying part of the challenge will be the long reloads with each mistake if you're not using savestates but they'll naturally decrease as you get better/until you quit.

I found The Pain the hardest boss to deal with if I remember right (I was doing non lethal though), all the others give you quite a few more ways to take them down without being fantastic at aiming/reaction times.

Good luck.
