This guide will Help you unlock the You Snooze, You Lose trophy and achievement in the Master Collection version of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
To do so, you need to “Sneak up on The End and hold him up.”
You can follow the video and text guide below:
The easiest way to hold up The End is at the beginning of the fight since he always appear at the upper cliffs on the north end of Sokrovenno South.
Once you gain control, equip your best face and camo disguises and then crawl your way to Sokrovenno North. If you kept the Camo Index high, The End shouldn’t be able to spot you.
In Sokrovenno North, you can safely run without having to worry about The End (just don’t make any loud noises). From this location, you need to head uphill and then head back to Sokrovenno South. Use the video above to see the path you need to take.
If done correctly, you should now be on the upper cliffs of Sokrovenno South. The End should be facing away from you
(Note: If you don’t find the end, then he is on the other side of the upper cliffs of Sokrovenno South. If that is the case, return to Sokrovenno North and then head to the opposite exit.)
Once you near up close to The End, point your weapon at him in first-person. You then need to aim your gun at his head on and off three times before he gives up his camo. Do not shoot your weapon or stop aiming; otherwise, he will try to escape. Use the aforementioned video as a reference if you are having trouble.
