ICQ: 9722762



Basically this guide gives you the locations for all 361 dog tags that 
can be found in the game on the various difficulties.  I also point out 
which ones are particularly troublesome to get, and how to get them.

First I simply list the details for each tag as it is displayed in the 
special menu of the game, then I give specifics for finding the 
difficult tags farther down.  I changed the format a little, with D.O.B 
first, followed by blood type, then the person's name and finally where 
they are found.

To get a dog tag you must hold up a guard which basically involves you 
sneaking up behind them and drawing your gun (don't shoot it).  Snake 
will yell "FREEZE!" and the enemy will be at your mercy.  This is 
easiest to do from behind.  Once you have the enemy in your control 
either hold X (with square still held) or hold L1, this allows you to 
move around with your gun drawn.  Run to the front of the enemy and aim 
at his crotch or head.  The enemy will get scared and shake out his/her 
dog tag, and any other items if you continue this.

When you hold up some enemies they will be too close to a wall or 
railing for you to get in front of them.  A good way around this is to 
hold L1 while you have your gun drawn, then simply run in front of them.  
You will knock him around a bit and after a second or two you will be in 
front of him and ready to steal his tag.

You can also grab an enemy in your choke hold, drag him to a nearby 
area, let him go and aim at him from there too.  Also if you manage to 
put a guard to sleep that you still need a tag from, you can pick him up 
and drop him many times to speed things up a little.  Or you can spray 
him with coolant.

However there are some enemies that I like to call "tough guys" and they 
won't be scared of you and your gun.  These guards will ask if you're 
really going to shoot them, some will tell you outright to shoot them, 
and in either case they may try to dodge your aim and quickly go for 
their own gun.  The only way to show these guys you mean business is to 
shoot them, but not kill them.  So make sure you hit them in the hand or 
leg possibly, then aim for their head or crotch and they should give up 
their dog tag.  Also you'll want to do this with a real gun, not a 
tranquilizer, as that will put them to sleep and then when they finally 
wake up, they'll give you their tough guy act again.  I will indicate 
which enemies are tough guys, below.  Also when dealing with these 
guards w/o a silencer make sure you tranquilize the other guards in the 
room before you shoot him, otherwise they'll hear the shot.  You can 
also point an RGB6, Nikita Launcher or Stinger Launcher at them and they 
will give up their tag without a shot fired.

TRICKY TAGS
===========

Here I will list how you get certain tags that you get in a way that may 
not be obvious at first.  Also many guards (though there numbers may be 
different) have the same pattern on different difficulty levels.  So if 
you know how to get them on one difficulty then you'll know how to do it 
on another.  For this reason I'll ONLY describe how to get the same type 
of guard once, in the earliest difficulty that he shows up in.

TANKER

Very Easy
000 - Once you've beaten Olga shake her body for the tag.
009 - When you first enter the room where this guard should be, he is
      not there.  He will show up patrolling here after you beat Olga
      or sometimes when you enter the room from a different door.
011 - This guy is not in the room at first, but when you enter the food
      storage area (with the boxes) he will come up the stairs.  Get
      him before he returns downstairs.
018 - You can hold this guy up from behind, then grab him and drag him
      right into the room with the little statue.  Now drop him and aim
      your gun at him again.  This guy only appears the first time
      you enter the engine room so get him as soon as you see him!
019 - This guy enters the room that has the many C4 sensors shortly
      after you do.  Hide between the objects in the middle of the
      room, and get him at your own leisure.  This guard will only show
      up once, so get him then.

Normal
005 - Not here immediately, appears after fighting Olga.

PLANT

Very Easy
000 - Use your punch/kick combo to knock snake out.  Then shake his
      body for the tag.  Each time you knock him down he will get angry
      and try to use the same combo on you.  But you can cartwheel out
      of the way at the last second to dodge his blows.
003 - Not here at first, appears once you've been to Strut A Pump Room.
005 - Appears after you fight Fortune.
007 - This guard is a one-timer, but he's not a tough guy so just take
      him out the first time you go to the AB bridge and you should be
      fine.
008 - Appears after talking with Stillman.
009 - Appears after talking with Stillman.
010 - Appears after you fight Fatman.
011 - Appears after talking with Stillman, exit the room and re-enter.
012 - Appears after talking with Stillman, exit the room and re-enter.
014 - Appears after you fight Fatman.
018 - Appears after you fight Fatman.
020 - Appears after you save Emma with the PSG1, in the room with the
      DG Camera.
024 - Appears after talking with Stillman.
025 - Appears after talking with Stillman.
036 - Appears when you bring Emma here.
039 - Appears when you bring Emma here.
040 - Appears when you bring Emma here.
041 - Appears when you bring Emma here, close to the east exit.

Easy
007 - This enemy only shows up once, so get him the first time.

Normal
004 - This tough guy may also be a one-timer, so tranquilize him, then
      when you get your socom from Plisken rush back here.
005 - This tough guy may also be a one-timer, so tranquilize him, then
      when you get your socom from Plisken rush back here.
047 - Appears once you bring Emma in the room.  He will come down the
      elevator so make sure you hide Emma somewhere else, like the spot
      to the right of the elevator.

Extreme
031 - This guard is in the room where you get your AKS-74u (LVL2 door).

REWARDS
=======

DG (Digital) Camera - Lets you take piuctures and save them to your 
memory card.  You can find it in the parcel room in Strut E, it's down 
the stairs in that room and you need a LVL 5 card to get it.  You can 
also use box 5 on the conveyor belts in the parcel room to get taken to 
the room with the camera.

Bandana - Gives you infinite ammo when you have it equipped.  It can 
only be used in the tanker stage on any difficulty.  You need around 30 
tags from the tanker to get it.

Stealth - When equipped you are invisible to all enemies, even cameras.  
You can earn one on the tanker stage, and one in the plant.  You need 
around 60 tags from the tanker to get its stealth, and around 120 tags 
from the plant to get its stealth.  Each stealth can only be used in its 
respective stage.

Infinite Wig (Brown) - Gives you infinite ammo when you have it 
equipped.  It can only be used in the plant stage on any difficulty.  
You need around 80 tags from the plant to get it.

Infinite Grip Wig (Orange) - Gives you an infinite grip meter when you 
have it equipped.  It can only be used in the plant stage on any 
difficulty.  You need around 160 tags from the plant to get it.

Infinite Air Wig (Blue) - Gives you an infinite supply of air when you 
have it equipped.  It can only be used in the plant stage on any 
difficulty.  I think you need around all the tags in the game to get it.  
The wig is really ONLY useful when you're underwater.

Bonus Website - When you get every tag in the game you are given the URL 
to part of Konami's website.  Here you will find wallpapers, icons and 
sounds for your computer (these list are also supposed to be updated), 
you need to enter your ID, Password and Clear Code to get in.

The URL is  http://www.konamijpn.com/mgs2/alldogtags/


============
TIPS & STUFF
============

Here are a few extra helpful things to know:

On Easy mode the M9 can be found in the room where you start, in the 
vents.

On Normal mode the M9 can be found on the upper floor of the Strut F 
Warehouse.  It's in the only door that you don't need a keycard to open.

You cannot get any of the rewards (except the DG camera) by beating the 
game once.  You need to save your game once you have beat it.  Then load 
that save, NOW you are given the option to start again on a different 
difficulty (but keeping all the tags that you've got so far).

On every difficulty it seems that there is a one-time guard on the AB 
connecting bridge (plant).  However it seems that you have a second 
chance to get this guard later on in the game, around the part where you 
get the guard disguise he should be back.

You can check the name of any guard who's tag you already have by 
looking through something that has a zoom function (camera, scope, PSG1, 
PSG1-T) and holding triangle.  This is also helpful for finding out 
who's tags you don't have yet, as no name will appear on these guards.

I will try to update this FAQ whenever possible, and if anyone has any 
questions about this FAQ or Metal Gear Solid 2, feel free to email me at 
fecalord@crapmail.com or ICQ at 9722762.

Also I have decided not to allow websites other than gamefaqs 
(www.gamefaqs.com) to host my FAQs from now on.  Please don't ask, 
because I will not grant permission.  It's just that too many sites 
don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of 
hassle in my mailbox.  So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than 
gamefaqs, please let me know and I will take care of the situation, 
thanks.
