Section 02. Introduction

 

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater HD is an upscale from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Subsistence. Everything from that release is carried over, to include the first two original Metal Gear games. Fortunately all of the trophies are obtained in the campaign. To make it even better, all the trophies can be earned in a single playthrough and while playing on the easiest difficulty. Even on the easiest difficulty some of the trophies will require effort, but nothing too complicated.

 

This is not a comprehensive Trophy Guide for the Vita version of the game. Most of the data is exactly the same but for any Vita specific question you may have, please use the Trophy Guide and Roadmap in the Vita Forums.

 

Section 2.1 - Saving/Continuing/Retrying

 

To help people not skip out on any of the collectible trophies I will address saving/continuing/retrying. When you save your game, the game only records all data from before the area you are currently in. I.E. If you entered Ponizovje Warehouse Docks and killed The End, shot the Kerotan and collected the Cobalt Blue Spider then saved your game and exited the game. The kill, Kerotan, and Spider would not be recorded in your data. If you did all of the actions, exited the area and then saved your game; the game would have a record of doing all the above actions. On the same subject, if you were to do the three actions, die and select Retry; none of the above would be recorded in your data.

 

Section 2.2 - EU/PAL Version

 

WARNING: There are a few trophies that don't appear and affect people who play the EU/PAL version. The two trophies in question are Snake Eyes and The Cat's Out of the Bag. To mitigate the possibility of not obtaining these trophies, you should play on a HD TV with your resolution set to 720p.

 

 

Section 03. Walkthrough

 

As stated above, all the trophies can be earned in a single playthrough while on the easiest difficulty. However there are plenty of missable trophies and so I strongly advise to utilize multiple saves. The multiple saves will be used to allow you to backtrack if you may have skipped over one of the many collectibles. Aside from the collectibles, the biggest obstacle is earning a no-kill run.

 

One important thing to keep in mind is there are no rank requirements; aside from collectibles and a no-kill run. You can retry and cause as many alerts as you want, just keep your lethal weapons holstered; this goes for the bosses as well. One final piece of advice on why you should play on Very Easy difficulty; you will be equipped with the EZ Gun. This weapon has infinite ammunition and is a tranquilizer, making a no-kill run even easier.

  • A One-Play Platinum guide is HERE.

 

Note: There is an ongoing issue with the one playthrough guide. For unspecified reasons some people are viewing the three posts that make up the guide out of order or not existing. If you are experiencing such an issue please check all the posts up to the second page to make sure one part of the guide is not there. If that doesn't sort the issue, then please clear your browser cache and try looking at the guide and if that doesn't resolve the issue then please try a different internet browser.

 

Section 03.1 First Playthrough

 

If you want to do it all in one go then you'll need to understand what's expected of you. Go ahead and start a New Game and put the difficulty on Very Easy to have access to a special weapon that destroys all difficulty. Another thing I suggest doing to avoid having a trophy glitch on you is selecting "I like MGS3" when the game asks you. Now when the game starts you'll be on Virtuous Mission, there are a handful of collectibles that you MUST secure before the end of the mission. Be sure to do everything in an area before moving on to the next. You should have a handful of trophies by the end of Virtuous Mission.

 

After the cutscenes you'll be on Operation Snake Eater, this is where most of the game takes place. Remember to use the collectible guides here for where things are and be sure you have earned them before finding yourself unable to backtrack. If you've cleared every requirement by the time you reach the score screen, you will earn various trophies to include the platinum.

Section 03.2 Cleanup

 

If you managed to miss something, load up your clear data and start the game over again. Most of the Face Paint and Camouflage collections carry over every playthrough; Mask (face), Officer (camo) and Maintenance (camo) do not. Each flora/fauna collection that counts towards the Markhor title must be done all over.

Eat a snake of any type

 

This trophy is easy enough, catch or kill a snake and eat it to earn this trophy. There are 11 types of snakes in the game and they're plentiful throughout the entire game.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/29.jpgA Good Man Is Hard To Find (B)

Achieve a camouflage index of 100%

 

(Missable) This trophy is not as hard as it sounds. First you will need to get the Moss Camouflage from The End (see Boss Data). Now in Sokrovenno North, lie prone in one of the bright dark green bits of ground to get a 100% camo index and this trophy.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/30.jpgI Can Totally See You (B)

Achieve a camouflage index of +90%

 

This trophy is very simple and will probably be earned without even trying as you're traversing through water. If you're having trouble earning this trophy then see A Good Man Is Hard To Find on how to achieve an appropriate camouflage index.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/31.jpgProblem Solved, Series Over (B)

Create the Ocelot Time Paradox

 

(Missable) This trophy must be done during Virtuous Mission. After the scene with Ocelot where he gets knocked out, you must kill Ocelot. You can use the knife or SVD (if you picked it up) to kill him and earn this trophy. If you are going for a no-kill run, be sure to save your game before doing this and do not retry but reload your save.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/32.jpgSnake Bit (B)

Poison a guard

 

To poison a guard you'll need to throw a poisonous animal at any guard. To throw an animal you'll need to go into your backpack and place the animal in your inventory and then equip it. When you press :square:, you'll throw the animal. Poisonous animals are; King Cobra, Coral Snake, Thai Cobra, Taiwanese Cobra, Poison-Dart Frog, Cobalt Blue Tarantula and Emperor Scorpion. Poisoning an enemy will kill them, so either have a game save ready to go back to or leave the area immediately so the guard doesn't die.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/33.jpgSerenity Now (B)

Use bees to harass an enemy

 

There are two ways to do this trophy. You can shoot a beehive from a tree while an enemy is below it; or shoot a hive down, collect it and throw it at an enemy. The earliest place to do this is Dolinovodno in Virtuous Mission. When you enter the area there's a guard standing near the bridge and there's a beehive near the bridge hanging from the furthest tree. Shoot the hive down and the bees will attack the guard, giving you this trophy.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/36.jpgJust Because (B)

Blow up a munitions shed with TNT

 

There are multiple munitions sheds throughout the game and all you need to do is blow up one of them; most sheds also have TNT in them making it even easier. The earliest you can do this mission is in Bolshaya Past Base; there's a munitions shed in the far north-east of the area and has TNT in it. Plant the TNT in the shed then run out and detonate it to earn this trophy.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/37.jpgMostly Dead (B)

Use the Fake Death pill

 

This trophy can be earned from the start of Virtuous Mission. Open your inventory, highlight the Fake Death Pill and press :cross: to use it and earn this trophy. If you don't want to die, be sure to use the revive pill.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/38.jpgBelieve it or Not (S)

Catch a Tsuchinoko (mythical serpent)

 

(Missable) The Tsuchinoko is a reclusive snake and you can't even detect it normally, not even with thermal vision. You first need to get a few Mousetraps and then head to where Tsuchinoko's live and place the Mousetraps. You can now either wait for the Tsuchinoko to enter the trap, or leave the area and then go immediately back; it's faster to do the latter. It may take a while but eventually you'll find a Tsuchinoko in your mousetrap and earn this trophy.

 

Tsuchinoko's can be found in the following areas; Graniny Gorki, Sokrovenno and Bolshaya Pass South. To help expedite a Tsuchinoko being caught, you can killl all other animals in the area; if there are no other animals they won't get caught in your traps. If a different animal gets caught in your trap you'll need to reset it. To reset a trap; crawl over it like a claymore and it'll be back in your inventory to set.

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGnj43qUCuQ]Metal Gear Solid 3 - Believe It Or Not Trophy/Achievement - YouTube[/ame]

 

Platinum Critical Information

[spoiler=Tsuchinoko]To earn a face paint that's critical to earning the platinum you MUST finish the game with a Tsuchinoko in your inventory. Once you get captured, all your gear is taken away; Eva has most of it but she will not have your animals/food. Once you make it to the waterfall and receive your gear, head back outside the waterfall and search the immediate area for the Tsuchinoko. It appears as a short, fat snake; Thermal Vision helps locate it. Shoot it with a TRANQUILIZER weapon and keep it with you to the end of the game.

 

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/39.jpgFashionista (S)

Find every type of camouflage

 

(Missable) There are numerous camouflage sets in the game. You will earn this trophy once you obtain all camouflage sets in the game. If you missed an early camouflage you will need to play to the second infiltration of Groznyj Grad and get the Maintenance to earn this trophy.

 

See Collectible Guide or the video below.

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxNNYkHq0IY]Metal Gear Solid 3 - Fashionista Trophy/Achievement - YouTube[/ame]

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/40.jpgOnly Skin Deep (S)

Find every type of face paint

 

(Missable) (Glitch) There are numerous sets of face paint in the game. You will earn this trophy once you obtain all face paint sets in the game. If you missed an early face paint you will need to play to the first infiltration of Groznyj Grad and get the Mask to earn this trophy.

 

WARNING: If you do not choose I like MGS3 when starting a new game there is a chance the game will glitch out and not award you this trophy. If this trophy does glitch on you, you'll have to start a whole new game and attempt this trophy again.

 

See Collectible Guide or the video below.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/41.jpgThe Early End (S)

Kill The End before the boss battle

 

(Missable) You only have one chance at this. After defeating The Pain and leaving the cave you end up in the Ponizovje area. Head north through the shallow water and when the path forks, head left (west) to Ponizovje West. There is a munitions shed in this area with a SVD rifle inside, take the rifle as it is critical for this trophy. Now head back to the area you came from, save your game and take the other path to Ponizovje Warehouse Docks. You get a cutscene upon entering the area and The End is here as well. Once the cutscene is over, equip the SVD and zoom in on the guard escorting The End. Take him out and then shoot The End as fast as you can. He takes quite a few bullets to put down and will try to escape but if you shoot fast enough his wheelchair will explode and you'll earn this trophy. If you have yet to kill him you will also earn The End. Killing him this way counts as a kill, so reload your save if you are attempting a no-kill run.

Sneak up on The End and hold him up

 

(Missable) This trophy is only possible during The End's boss battle; if you didn't kill him earlier or force him to die of old age. Sneaking up on him is not as hard as it may seem, it just requires being in the right place at the right time.

 

See Boss Data or the video below.

Obtain the title of MARKHOR

 

(Missable) This trophy is very easy to miss. To earn the title MARKHOR you must collect all 48 different types of animal and plant life. That is all Snakes, Birds, Fruit, Mushrooms, Fish, Frogs and other non-specific flora/fauna. You do not need to eat, just hold all 48 items in your inventory at least once in a single playthrough. If you have done so, you will earn this trophy at the score screen.

Find all 64 Kerotans

 

(Missable) This trophy is very easy to miss. Throughout the game there are 64 Kerotans, almost one in every area of the game. Five are during the Virtuous Mission while the other 59 are during Operation Snake Eater. To "find" the Kerotan you must attack it; shoot it with a weapon or hit it with a melee attack. When hit it will make a noise to indicate you have successfully "found" it. Find all 64 Kerotans in a single file to earn this trophy and the Stealth camouflage at the score screen.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/45.jpgLike a Boss (G)

Finish the game on any difficulty

 

This trophy is pretty straight forward with its wording. Simply beat the game from the start of Virtuous Mission all the way through the credits to the Score Screen and you will earn this trophy.

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1054/46.jpgPEACE WALKER (G)

Finish the game without killing anyone

 

(Missable) This trophy is not as hard as it sounds. If you play on Very Easy mode; enemies will be weak but you will also have the EZ Gun which acts as a tranquilizer and has infinite ammo. The killing only refers to enemies, you are free to kill as many animals as you want; enemy attack dogs do not count as a kill either. You must also use non-lethal means to deplete the stamina gauge of every boss to achieve this trophy. If you make it through the entire game without a single kill you will earn this trophy at the score screen. In the game there are guards on hovercrafts and motorcycles who will have a nasty wipeout if you shoot them; if you shoot them with a tranquilizer it will not count as a kill. However if you tranquilize an enemy and he ends up dying from falling off a bridge or cliff that will count as a kill, so be careful when subduing the guards.

Boss Data

 

 

Boss 1 - Ocelot

You fight Ocelot in the Bolshaya Past Crevice.

 

Ocelot doesn't have too many tricks up his sleeve. He has 2 six-shooters and will blatantly stand out in the open while reloading. If you manage to shoot his beret off he'll stand still and look for it giving you a free chance to shoot him. After a while of it lying on the ground he will break cover to go pick it up, giving you another free chance to shoot him. The one thing you should know is his troops will fire on you if you do not stick to a handgun type weapon (M1911 or Mk. 22).

 

Depleting Ocelot's Stamina rewards you with the Animal Camouflage.

 

 

Boss 2 - The Pain

You fight The Pain in Chyornya Peschera Cave.

 

The Pain is another simple fight, he has a few tricks but nothing too difficult. The first thing you should know is you jump in the water to avoid any of his attacks. If he puts his hornet armor on you can blow it off with a grenade, the M37 or wait for it to drop. His basic attack is sending a wave or hornets over to hurt you, they're nothing too mean. His second attack has him yell "Grenade" and he'll send over a slow flying ball of hornets... with a grenade inside the ball. His most dangerous attack has him charging up and shooting hornets with a red streak. Do not get hit by these, they hurt a lot and require first aid. His last ability has him teleport to wherever you're standing and take a swing at you. All of his attacks are easy to doge and he's not that difficult.

 

Depleting The Pain's Stamina rewards you with the Hornet Camouflage.

 

 

Boss 3 - The Fear

You fight The Fear in Graniny Gorki South.

 

The Fear is a simple fight but can be dragged on or can be finished quickly; it all depends on how well prepared you are for this fight. The Fear has a few attacks with his crossbow; one is a straight shot at you, the second is a volley of arrows he rains from above and the third is another straight shot but will poison you. Outside of that he has stealth camouflage until you weaken him to 50% or less of his stamina. Once his stamina gets below 50% he'll start looking for food; shooting it down from trees and then rushing to eat it. If you're holding spoiled meat or poisonous food you can drop it in advance of him being hungry and he will go for it and hurt himself. If you do not have anything that can hurt him you can rush to the food he shoots down and attack him as he approaches. After driving him off, pick up the food so he won't have another chance for it. The lower his stamina gets the more sluggish and easier to kill he gets.

 

Depleting The Fear's Stamina rewards you with the Spider Camouflage.

 

 

Boss 4 - The End

You fight The End in Sokrovenno South/North/West.

 

Yes The End has three whole zones committed to his fight and you (as well as he) can freely move between each zone. The End is a sniper and as such doesn't engage much in close quarters combat, but being a sniper he's usually hiding or stalking you and you'll have to find him. If you look at your in game map there will be white circles all over the map, these all all potential sniping positions for him. These are good places to start looking for him. You can find him as he moves between sniping locations. If you get close enough and shoot him, he'll throw a flashbang and run away. He will outrun you but still chase him, sometimes he'll setup in a position and put his back to you; making it easy for you to sneak up on him.

 

Another way to find him is by walking around and getting shot by him. Once he fires, one of those circles on your map will turn red to show which position he's firing from. Take cover from his fire and work your way up to his position, if you're fast enough you'll make it before he leaves. Thermal Vision isn't required but helps tremendously here as much of the forest is cool with only the animals radiating any warmth. The End isn't a hard fight, it just might take a while for you two to find each other. If you completely lose The End you can use the Directional Microphone to find him.

 

Alternate Kill

This is a cheap way to kill The End. Save your game once the fight starts; Paramedic will warn you about saving. Now back out of the game to the XMB and set your console clock ahead a few days and go back into the game and load your save. You will immediately get a call notifying you The End has died of old age.

 

Warning: Killing him this way will not reward you with the trophy for defeating him.

 

Depleting The End's Stamina rewards you with his Moisin Nagant.

 

To get his Moss Camouflage, you must sneak up on him. Tell him to freeze and he'll lie down on the ground. Now point the gun at his head until he talks, when he talks point it at his body. Do this three times over the course of the fight and he'll relinquish his Camouflage. If he drops his Camo and you kill him before picking it up you will have lost it.

 

 

Boss 5 - The Fury

You fight The Fury in Groznyj Grad Underground Tunnel.

 

The Fury is very limited when it comes to attack patterns, but grows stronger with each bit of damage he takes. All The Fury has is a flamethrower and a rocket pack; he uses the rocket pack to fly around and the flamethrower to try and kill you. The flamethrower does leave patches of fire that hurt if you stand in them; but the major problem is the range of the flamethrower grows as he takes more damage; eventually flooding an entire tunnel way. All you can do is keep your distance, shoot and move before he can burn you. He's not difficult, just takes a while to get used to avoiding his attacks when he's close to death.

 

 

Boss 6 - The Sorrow

You "fight" The Sorrow along a river after escaping Groznyj Grad.

 

This isn't a fight as much as it is an event. You need to continuously walk down the river while The Sorrow talks to you. Every now and then he'll materialize a tentacle and thrust it at you, it moves slow so just go to the left or right to avoid it. As you walk down the river you will be chased by everything you've killed, enemy soldiers will try to grab onto you and slow you down; but keep moving past them. If you are doing a no-kill run, only the bosses will show up (they show up regardless of how you killed them) and it is a short event. If you have been sociopathic this can take a while. At the end of the event Snake will drop dead for no explained reason. When the Continue/Exit options appear hold :l2:, select the revive pill and press :cross: to use it.

 

You can expedite this process by lying prone in the water and drowning yourself.

 

Warning: To receive the Spirit Camo you cannot use the drowning technique during this event.

 

 

Boss 7 - Volgin

You fight Volgin in Groznyj Grad.

 

Volgin, like most bosses isn't too difficult to take down. The first thing you need to do is put your gun away because he will wreck you if you have it out. His attacks are a basic punch, he'll charge you and throw lightning. His special abilities is holding bullets in a hand and firing at you like a machine gun or throwing a bunch of bullets in the air around him and blanketing the area when he sets them off. Every now and then he'll glow bright and will be invulnerable. You can use a glowcap or chaff grenade to disrupt his powers. To damage him you need to get in close and use the CQC slam to put him on the ground; now take out your weapon of choice and put a round in him while he's on the ground. If going for a stamina kill you can use the roll ability to damage him; this hurts more then your tranquilizer weapons. That's all there is to this fight; avoid his attacks, put him on the ground and hurt him while he's down.

 

Depleting Volgin's Stamina rewards you with the Cold War Camouflage.

 

 

Boss 8 - Shagohod / Volgin

You fight the Shagohod around Groznyj Grad.

 

This even automatically kicks off after the Volgin fight. Eva and Snake will be on a motorcycle and be chased by the Shagohod. Your job is to defeat the enemies in your way before the Shagohod destroys you. Near the end of the event you'll blow up a bridge to try and stop it, but this is where the fight really begins. Eva will be driving and it's your job to destroy the thing. Equip the RPG and aim at the Shagohod's treads. When Eva gets you near its back, fire a RPG into the back of the Shagohod to damage it. After it defeated you'll move onto the second part of the fight.

 

You're now on the ground and Eva is still distracting the Shagohod. Use your RPG to attack its treads again but this time use your weapon of choice to shoot Volgin while he's discharged.

 

Note: If you are going for a zero kill playthrough, Volgin must be defeated with a non-lethal weapon.

 

 

Boss 9 - The Boss

You fight The Boss in Rokovoj Bereg.

 

This is where things can get tricky; the boss has her Patriot SMG and is still stellar at CQC, to top it off her clothes help hide her in the flowers. Luckily she only has 2 attacks; she'll shoot at you or rush you and try to use CQC. You can go ahead and trade shots with her, but when she decides to rush you, you NEED to put your gun away. If you don't and she grabs you, not only will she floor you but dismantle your gun. Luckily you can counter with your own CQC, but you should always put your gun away when she gets close. One thing she isn't good at is finding you, if you can get your camo index up she'll have a hard time spotting you. You can also use Thermal Vision to have an easier time finding her. One last thing to remember is even though there's no timer shown, there is a time limit to this fight. She probably is the toughest boss in the game, but nothing too difficult.

 

Depleting The Boss's Stamina rewards you with the Snake Camouflage.

One Playthrough Platinum

 

This is walkthrough of the game with highlights and details pertaining to everything you should do to get the platinum trophy in one playthrough. You do not have to do everything precisely as it's written, if you know of another spot it can be done. However there are a lot of one-time opportunities and these will be called out to let you know. Another thing I will be pointing out is where to obtain support equipment, while it may have no bearing on the trophies they will make obtaining the trophies easier.

 

This is not a replacement or stand in for the rest of the guide. If you are having trouble locating a particular animal, camo, face paint or Kerotan please consult the trophy guide.

 

Non-specific trophies

Some are related to interactions with the guards, if you are going for a one-play platinum be sure to save your game before you do a throat slitting and then reload your save.

 

Tell Me Where the Bomb Is

Like He Just Doesn't Care

Close Shave

Don't Touch the Sides

Ralph Called

Snake Bit

Serenity Now

Tune-In Tokyo

Mostly Dead

 

 

Virtuous Mission

There are a handful of trophies obtainable in the Virtuous Mission. Most of them can be earned later on, but it's best to get them out of the way.

 

 

01. Dremuchij South

Kerotan: Head up the path to the east and look west. It'll be on the hill.

 

Markhor: Snake G - Slithering around the area

Markhor: Snake H - Slithering around the area

Markhor: Mushroom A - The tree west of the collapsed tree that's north of where you start.

Markhor: Mushroom C - The tree east of the collapsed tree that's north of where you start.

Markhor: Fruit B - Growing in a tree that's west of the tree with your gear.

Markhor: Frog B - Crawling around in the grassy areas.

 

Trophy!: Shoot a snake with the Mk. 22 to capture it for Can I Keep It.

Trophy!: Eat a snake for Snake Eater.

 

 

02. Dremuchij Swamp

Kerotan: Go through the swamp and when you enter the second patch of grass, look to the right along the hill.

 

Markhor: Gavial - Kill one of the alligator and collect it's leftovers.

 

 

03. Dremuchij North

Kerotan: From the northern exit, head west to a fallen log and tree stump. The Kerotan is on the tree stump.

 

Markhor: Fruit A - Red fruit growing in the trees on the western fork.

Markhor: Fruit C - Yellow fruit growing in the climbable tree on the eastern fork.

Markhor: Bird D - Hiding in the grassy parts of the area.

Markhor: Bird E - Hiding in the grassy parts of the area.

 

Trophy!: Collected all 3 fruit for Everything is in Season.

 

Optional: Once you enter the area take the small fork east to find a SVD rifle.

 

 

04. Dolinovodno

Kerotan: Atop the left bridge support on the south side.

 

Markhor: Hornets Nest, near the bridge in the tree furthest from where you entered the area.

 

Trophy!: Drop the beehive near a guard for Beekeeper.

 

Optional: Once you cross the bridge, go west and take the small path to a cave for the XM16.

 

 

05. Rassvet

Kerotan: Head left along the wall from the stair case and look through the hole in the wall.

 

Important: Save your game after finding Sokolov and knocking out Ocelot.

 

Trophy!: At the end of the scene you'll earn Young Gun.

Trophy!: With your game saved, use a lethal weapon to kill Ocelot for Problem Solved, Series Over. Do not Retry, but quit and reload your save.

 

 

Continue on with the game until you're on Operation Snake Eater.

 

 

06. Dremuchij East

Kerotan:In the first big area there's a pile of logs, it's hidden under them.

Markhor: Cold Medicine (Plant) - In the first big area, near the logs with the Kerotan.

 

 

07. Dremuchij North

Important: The Boss will strip you of your weapon here. You can still get the Markhor items, but you will need to get another gun to score the Kerotans. Therefore I am fast-forwarding this to Rassvet to after meeting Eva and fighting off the Ocelot squad.

 

 

08. Rassvet

No, holding :circle: just keeps them grappled. :l3: is for the interrogation and :triangle: introduces them to Mr. Kutty-knife.

 

Are you sure?

 

If you press the CQC button hard, Snake will slit the enemy's throat with his knife

Dont press to hard or you'll cut their throat.

With an enemy nearby, press and hold the circle button (not too hard or you'll slit their throat).

Slit throat: Hold Circle while holding an enemy prisoner.

Slit Throat - When you have an enemy in a chokehold, press O firmly to slit an enemy's throat;

You are confusing MGS3 with MGS4 where it was indeed :circle: followed by :triangle:

 

While holding the enemy in a choke hold, pressing triangle will cut the enemy's throat.

I have a tip for catching the Tchnko if you put a mousetrap in bolshaya past south, the part with the mines and fences, It's the area with no wildlife except the dogs which dont count as being caught in mouetraps so i found it pretty easy to catch it in that area

edit: Also you don't need to get all the frogs in one playthrough, they carry over. I missed the one in Groznyj Grad Southeast and the trophy unlocked after I shot it on my next playthrough. It's also worth mentioning the Ga-Ko camo will "quack" if you are in a level with a frog that hasn't been shot.
