At the very start of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater the game asks which Metal Gear Solid games you like. It looks like a simple question, but every answer unlocks a different camouflage or face paint from the beginning of the game, and some of them change how you play. Here is what each answer gives you and which one to pick.
Every answer and what it unlocks
| Your answer | What you unlock |
|---|---|
| I’m playing the MGS series for the first time | Mummy camo: auto-heals injuries that would normally need a bandage |
| I like MGS1 | DPM camo: double health and stamina recovery rate Auscam camo: reduces the damage you take |
| I like MGS2 | Raiden Mask face paint: available from the start Desert Tiger camo: infinite suppressor use |
| I like MGS3 | Flecktarn camo: infinite battery for the thermal goggles |
| I like MGS4 | Green face paint: infinite grip gauge Brown face paint: infinite oxygen underwater |
| I like MGS: Peace Walker | Banana camo: all food tastes great |
| I like MGS V | Flag face paints: decorative only |
| I like everything in the MGS series | Grenade camo: infinite grenades |
Which answer should you choose?
- Going for Foxhound rank later: choose “I like MGS1” in your first playthrough. DPM and Auscam make the boss fights, the hardest part of that run, much easier. See How to get Foxhound rank in MGS Delta.
- No-kill or stealth run: “I like MGS2” gives you Desert Tiger, so your suppressor never wears out.
- Just want to have fun: “I like everything” gives you infinite grenades with the Grenade camo.
Every other camo and face paint, with where to find it and what it does, is in the MGS Delta camo and face paint guide and in the complete Metal Gear Solid Delta guide.
