Hi,
is there a certain strategy to beat the mid level boss of level 3 in Metal Slug 1? I mean this guy with the Machine Gun.

avoid the bombs and shoot, shoot and shoot with the heavy machine gun... that's my strategy !

yes.

He has certain angles that he can attack at with the machine gun. You have to get familiar with those angles and where your character is in relation to them.

He'll shoot at 0, 45, and 90 degrees I believe. I'll check the mook tonight when I get home and make sure. His close up attack has a large radius, so avoid getting too close to him at all costs. If I missed anything from the mook, I'll add it tonight.

thank you, but there isn't a position where you can't get hurt, right?

Actually there is a "position" where you can't get hurt - you must be right under him(he is on platform),so Actually there is a "position" where you can't get hurt - you must be right under him(he is on platform),so he can't shoot you with his machine gun and trows grenades,but don't worry just keep running and standing right under the gay and kill him!!he can't shoot you with his machine gun and trows grenades,but don't worry just keep running and standing right under the gay and kill him!!! :) :) :)

By the way, the Super Soldier's name is Alan O'Neil.

Do you know what General Morden's first name is? :)

IIRC, this is how I killed him.

First I get on an even ledge so I can shoot him straight out. I jump over his bullets. He jumps over to my ledge... starts shooting. At this point, you gotta time your getaway just right... and repeat from start.

He was cool to face, I just wish the enemies were more varied in MS1.

I stay at the right upper corner,

then O'Neill come to me from the bottom, and fires at 45 degrees to me

JUMP

O'Neill jump on the right middle platform

JUMP + SHOOT

then O'Neill shoots

JUMP

O'Neill turn back on the left bottom platform

- repeat -

Note:
sometimes he jump on the upper platform and try to cut you with knife: just shot to the left part of the screen and use a specular tecnique.

You can use grenades too: to hit easily the Sgt., throw the grenades when he landing from the left middle platform to the left bottom platform (if you are oon the right part of the screen, of course ;) )


Ps.
sorry for my english :p

in the beginning of the level,
you have to wait untill the time is set at 53 sec, then 3 hidden pows fall from the sky (with an aero-enemy, be carefull and jump :p ); then, after you blow up the barrel of dynamite, you can see a stairs: shoot and two other guys come down. Then go on... when you arrive in the part where the sky change from blue to cremisi, you have to wait (and kill) three (or 4? i don't remeber, sorry ^_^; ) in the "bunker" at the left part of the screen, then two pows come out (be carefull, don't go on too much or they don't appear); the last hidden pows are in the boss zone: three in the up/right corner, other in the down/left.

(we have to say thanks to Gemant for this info ^_^; )
