MISSION OBJECTIVE:
get a good grade in Kaz!


What is this and is it real?
It's a fun little reward you get for "completing" MGSPW.

How?
50 ex-ops to the 2nd ending and another 50 to unlock this one.

I don't think it needs a guide...
But for my own amusement, I felt like making a whole ass list, hehe.




Remember the basics of Beach Date


Kaz's affinity level will go up or down depending on Snake's actions. You can't miss it: there's a sound and a heart icon when it goes up and a broken heart when it goes down.

It's very easy. You can do this by using:

  • Items
  • Actions
  • Co-Op Comms

Raise his affinity level to get a better rank. First he starts smiling, then nodding and when it's high enough, he'll do a silly little clapping animation. Then complete the mission by equipping the Love Box (or Tank/Rescue Box).

You'll know when the affinity level is on the negative side, when he crosses his arms and frowns. Low enough, and he'll do a silly little stomping animation and turn his back.

If the level gets too low, he'll leave and you'll get a devastating game over screen.

ITEMS



Uniform

Wearing the swim trunks or any of the "naked" uniforms will make Kaz wear swim trunks as well. If Snake shows more skin, closing the distance in any way during the mission will make Kaz say some (not-so-subtle) lines.

  • "I've been wating for you" ♪
  • "Maybe we were meant for each other..."
  • "Nice pecs."
  • "Take me to heaven, Snake."

After completing the mission with an S rank, you will get Miller's uniform.

Camera

When Snake faces the camera towards Kaz, he'll react and pose for the photo.

Variations depend on the current level. He does some ridiculous poses when maxed.

  • B "You wanna a picture of me?"
  • A "I'm ready for my close-up."
  • S "Make sure you get a good shot of my muscles."

Binoculars

He says "What?" or "You're making me blush" if you focus on his face. (bit flustered)

Zoom in on his torso/hip area to increase affinity with each comment he makes.

  • "Those things don't have X-ray vision, do they?"
  • "All right, knock it off."
  • "Go ahead, there's plenty of me to see."

Walkman

He starts playing air guitar when you play Koi no Yokushiryoku...


Box

He asks if there's room for two, and enters the box with Snake. There's cute little hearts. Last comment tells your Kaz-grade.

  • C "Settle down, pal."
  • B "We're just getting warmed up."
  • A "Get better all the time!"
  • S "Glad to be with you, Boss..."

ACTIONS



CQC

The quickest way to S-rank the mission. Just beat the shit out of him, knock him out, throw him or choke him and he'll love it. Each action raises affinity.

By using some of the comms, you can also ask him to attack. Kaz throws a punch that sends Snake flying across the beach. This also increases affinity. His aviators can break and tilt a bit (giving you a glimpse of his eyes)

If you lie on top of him, he'll mumble: "Stop it... I'm not that kind of guy..." and when you do it again, he'll mutter a suggestive "Oh ho ho... Snake..."

allies start calling if you keep doing it

Huey: I don't think I'll ever understand you two.

Search

Search him to get the Patriot assault rifle design specs. Apparently, the "C-mag" in this gun has a nickname that roughly translates to "balls-mag." (reminder of its shape)


Interrogate

Do it to get Kaz frustratingly close to confessing.

  • I've got...nothing...to hide...
  • No skeletons...in my closet...
  • OK, OK...there's one thing...I never told you...
  • You were always...my...

. . .


Movement

He'll say "Where are you going?" or "Settle down" if you're running around, but if you bump into him, he'll start asking "What's your problem?" and affinity drops.


Codec

If you try to make a call during the date, he'll say "Later, Snake. Now's not the time" or "Why don't we have a chat instead, just the two of us?"



CO-OP COMMS


Half of the fun is in the acting, tbh. Anyway, I tried them all and wrote the responses down. Some comms have slightly different meaning in japanese.

Note:
Some comms that normally slightly raise the affinity level can have the opposite effect if you're far on the negative side. He just says "huh" or "yeah, I'm sure."

  • Talking in his sleep 💤

  • Not even for you, Boss...
  • Snake...answer me, Snaaake..
  • Mom, your miso soup...always too salty...
  • Dad...I'm an American...



( back )

This is a saying for people who are trying to do something difficult. "If you fail, I'll take care of it afterwards." "If you get rejected, we'll be there for you," etc.

i'll pick up your bones when i'm done

Cultural context: "kotsuage"

in japan, most people are cremated after death. as part of a religious ritual, relatives pick the bones out of the ashes and transfer them to the urn with large chopsticks. that's where this saying comes from.
