Firs[Subsistence] you’ll have to enter your ‘name’, then after a few more moments, alter your appearance. When you finally gain control of Snake after various events, crawl to the hall and make your way to the end. Follow your mysterious friend around the corner to trigger a scene. After this, continue down the hall and approach the windows. After a short scene, follow your friend through the nearby door and crawl over the floor to the other side of the room where some more scenes occur. In the next hall, make your way to the end, but watch the windows; you can’t be spotted by the helicopter’s searchlight or it’ll be instant game over. Besides, especially if you’re aiming for an S Rank, it is important to have as few enemy combat alerts. (Zero alerts isn't strictly required for an S-rank, since you can compensate with other factors, mainly a fast mission time, but an alert does cut down your score by 5000 points, which is quite a lot.)
Head dow[Subsistence] one floor and check the iron-bar door in the corner, then wait for your friend to open it up. Make your way to the front to trigger a scene. In the next room, hide underneath one of the beds directly to your left and wait for the guys to pass, then exit the room by the door on the other side. Lay on the ground and lay still next to the bodies until a scene plays. Heal your injured leg after this and follow your friend downstairs, where he’ll open a door for you. Immediately move to the right and stay out of sight. When you have the fun, shoot the fire extinguisher, then follow your friend. If you don’t want to kill the next two enemies, you don’t have to; simply wait for your friend to take them out.
Onc[Subsistence] you’re in the main hall, shoot the enemy in front of you (located on the stairs) a couple of times. If you don’t want to kill him, shoot him three times in his torso and he’ll stay alive; the same basically applies to the others as well. Quickly move to the left side of the area (which you are facing initially) and shoot some enemies downstairs. You can also take out the ones that come searching for you. When you’ve taken them all out, approach the exit and dive out of the way. After the scene, ignore Man on Fire and approach the exit once again.
After th[Subsistence] scenes, a chase ensues. Shoot at your foe whenever he gets close and be sure to reload only when he’s further away from you. If you find the chase hard due to your aiming settings (perhaps you switched to manual), you might want to put them back to auto-aim for this part of the game.
