**A:** It doesn’t matter if the enemy radios for backup, unlike MGS2 an alert is recorded on sight. | **A:** It doesn’t matter if the enemy radios for backup, unlike MGS2 an alert is recorded on sight. Alerts will also stack. Meaning, if an alert clears into Evasion and you trigger alert again, you’ve now gotten two alerts. On European Extreme, you will obtain an alert and a continue if spotted. |

**A:** Killing Volgin is the fastest way to do the fight. Fortunately, because your first encounter with him he does not actually die, it’s not counted as a kill. Fighting Volgin non-lethally is approximately 30 seconds slower than killing him with a lethal weapon. In addition, the game adds 10 seconds to the fight, to ensure that the player has enough time to collect the Cold War camouflage, making getting the Cold War camouflage less practical for a NG speedrun. The AUSCAM camo (selecting I like MGS3!) can be used to reduce damage by 33% during the bike chase as an alternative. However, as the bike chase can be completed without changing camos at all, using safer strategies, such as using Cold War, AUSCAM, or the Sneaking Suit, will always be slower. | **A:** Killing Volgin is the fastest way to do the fight.
