How to beat Boss Rush!; You know you need it D:

For MPO+, Boss Rush is all about getting the other twin, the one you didn't get in MPO1.(Ursula/Elisa)

The elemental mechanic of Boss Rush is: SURVIVE. So here's how.

Preparation:

You'll need 4 soldiers with very high HP, over 350 if you can, that you won't miss if they die.
equip the first soldier with an M870, a Single Action Army, Body armour and an RPG7.

Give the second soldier 2 RPG7s, body armour and an M63.

Give the third soldier one RPG, an M63, Body Armour and a submachine gun.

Give the last guy a submachine gun, Body armour, an M63 and an M870.

And be sure to try and match up the soldier's stats to their weapons. IE the last soldier should be good with subs, heavy weapons and shotguns, at least an S. He's technically the only one who'll survive Boss rush, so don't worry if he's a good soldier or not.

TECH UNIT: Make sure you load your entire tech unit full of Arms specialists. They increase the amount of ammo you carry with you on missions, and will definitely be useful here.
Anyway, on to the matter:


Python.


Equip your Armour and M870. When he runs at you at teh beginning, let him start the animation to bash you with his rifle. Auto aim and step back, and fire at point blank range. It'll do a hefty amount of damage, and Python will fall back. when he gets up, wait for a moment in case he starts steaming, then move in close to him again. If you do it right, he'll take another swing at you. If you do this right every time, it's possible to defeat him without being hit once.

Null.
Equip your Body armour and SAA. Fire around the corner, at an angle beside Null that will hit him in the back. Take a little time between each shot, or it won't register and hit him. To avoid reloading, and leaving yourself exposed, un-equip and re-equip the SAA every 5 shots. sty around the corner, and when he fires his M10, the bullets will hit the wall. If he comes around the corner, just retreat around another one.

RAXA
It's possible to get out of this one alive, but not really do-able. straight away, Body armour and RPG. Aim and fire at the legs, quick-reloading as you do. Try to focus on one side, to avoid missing shots. If you get enough shots in, you'll damage both legs on one side before it lifts off. If it fires missiles at the start, keep firing until the last missile has launched. If it's the machine gun, keep firing until you run out of ammo or RAXA lifts off. To the right of your start position, there's RPG ammo behind a crate near the right-hand wall. Go there if you have trouble with ammo.
Once RAXA topples, run around it in circles,and when it opens its launch tubes fire 2 or 3 shots into it then run again, dodging the missiles.Do that and you should avoid major damage.

Second Null.

Basically, the same as the first. It's a little tricky because he doesn't have a good wall behind him, but if you fire shots at him while backing off to prevent him firing at you, then you can get behind a crate and let loose.

I should mention that you should be on your second or third soldier by now, and there's a little trick.

Get Null to as little health as possible, then kill yourself. Yep. DIE. What you want to do is start fresh with the next soldier, who will kill Null in one hit. See, Cunningham and Gene have to be fought together, with the one soldier, and if you die, you fail. Full stop.

CunninGene

That's what I refer to them as.

For Cunningham, equip your Armour and M63. Auto aim at him and let loose, but be careful with your clip. reloading takes a damn long time.

Avoid his rockets, and laser, and machine gun and whatnot and you should get through with little or no damage.
With this M63, you're getting him trapped in a loop, so he doesn't have a real opportunity to fire back.

Gene is tricky when he gets low on health.

At the start, he ramps up his big ol' stamina draining speech. Whip out your M63 and let him have it until he stops. Then, if he starts circling, get your M870 out and hold it in ready to fire, auto aiming at him. when he raises his arm, SHOOT! Also, never stay still, keep walking around, just in case. When he starts to charge, you really want to be next to a ramp, as the rail will protect you. Once he's puffing, run down and shoot his arse off.

After all that, you should get the twin you didn't have.
Your failure is complete, you stupid ass-bastards.

ok.

Tip 1: Stamina kill means jack-all when it comes to boss rush. Use the M63 instead. ;)

But if you really have to stamina kill him, use the m63 to knock out his chariot, then auto aim with the mk22,

S2/3 M63 HS
Mosin HS (does a HEAP of damage)

i beat gene what i do is the shotgun trick by holding the buton down then letting it go (quicker reaction for game) then when hes missed with his gold KO move after i hide behind the rail i whip out my SVD and shoot him in the head and that takes like 1/3 of his health away

Doing Boss Rush with one soldier is easy, I use boss rush to train my soldiers. You can even kill the first null with 4 SVD shots only without any damage.

Four Shotgun blasts will do it as well, you don't even have to wait for him to reload if you're good enough ^_^
