Easy difficulty is Ghost Babel with training wheels.

  • More resources spawn
  • Some bosses become easier
  • Snake is built like a tank, needing a ration is fairly unlikely.
  • Fewer guards and cameras
  • One of the awkward aspects of Easy is that Alerts and Evasions clear faster than other difficulties.
  • Guards without body armor die in 1 bullet, 2 bullets with body armor.
  • Guards without body armor will die immediately if you triple punch them.

  • Missile Launcher can be damaged only by Nikita
  • Flame Thrower can be damaged only by Grenades
  • Upper Cannons are destroyed after 4 hits, totaling 17 damage per Cannon destroyed
  • Metal Gear never deploys its UAVs on Easy
  • When Machine Guns are flashing, Gander can choose to use the upper turrets, use UAVs, or fire missiles (when it reaches a low enough HP)
  • If a grenade is thrown onto Gander on Fl 98 or Fl 99, it will deal 4 damage at the start of Body per throw. Video shown below. Because there is no guard on Easy, the movement is easier than what is shown in the video.
  • Once GANDER reaches 63 HP, it can perform the Missile attack
  • Once GANDER reaches 31 HP, Flame Thrower attack begins
  • To finish phase 2, up to 8 grenades are required
