In the Subsistence missions, Snake will deploy immediately without any Sortie Prep, meaning he starts with only his Bionic arm, olive camouflage, and Fultons. All weapons and items must be acquired directly from the operational area. Additionally, enemies are more alert, and Reflex Mode is disabled, increasing the challenge. At the start of the mission, you’ll be dropped just outside a small outpost. This positioning is advantageous since you have no equipment at your disposal, and there are two guards nearby who are ready to provide you with their weapons. Take advantage of this opportunity to gear up and prepare for the mission ahead.
While it may not be much, a gun is still a gun, and now that you have one, make your way toward the communications post. Keep in mind that it’s daytime, and the enemy is more alert than usual, so exercise extra caution as you proceed. Additionally, be aware that there are two patrolling soldiers on the road leading to the communications post, so stay vigilant to avoid detection.
Once you reach the communications post, take the time to scan as many soldiers as possible to get their locations. Since you don’t have access to Reflex Mode, it's essential to have a clear understanding of where every soldier is positioned. When you feel confident in your reconnaissance, it’s time to move in for your objective. The communications equipment is located in a building at the center of the camp. However, before you take it out, consider your options and escape route. While you could shoot it directly, doing so will trigger an immediate alert, and the entire camp will be after you. Instead, we recommend sneaking around the camp, quietly eliminating as many enemies as you can. If you manage to clear out the entire camp, you won’t have to worry about being spotted when you destroy the equipment.
