CLAN [CAMP]

After doing some reach I formed to together a animal ranking guide. It is not complete yet so I'll start experimenting soon to find out the rest of the guide.

-Animal Ranking guide

This is a simple guide to help you understand, and possibly achieve the special
animal rankings for your character(s) in Metal Gear Online.

First, you need to understand how the system works:

-There are no static number requirements; those are for your "Awards" page like
"1000 kills" or "25 Headshots." The requirements for animal ranks are all based
on ratios. So, 3 kills to 1 death is essentially the same as 300 kills to 100
deaths.

-Some ranks can be overridden by a higher rank. So let's say you are going for
Bee, but end up dishing out too many headshots in the process; you’ll get
Eagle, despite meeting the requirement for Bee since Eagle ranks higher.
I'll list ranks from Best to Worst as per the game's standards. So a rank
listed higher than another, overrides what is below it.

-Certain sets of ranks require a certain amount of play time.
---Fox and Foxhound require 15 hours
---Hound and Doberman require 10 hours
---Crocodile, Eagle, and Jaws require 5 hours
---Specialty ranks require 3 hours (Everything else)

*******************************************************************************

!How to calculate ratios!

Throughout the guide, I'll mention things like "K/D" (Kill/Death) and "Win"
ratios. To calculate these, use the following formulas:

-K/D ratio: (Kills divided by Deaths)
-K+s/D+s ratio: (Kills + Stuns) Divided by (Deaths + Stuns received)
-Win ratio: (Rounds won divided by Rounds played) x 100

Only apply ratio requirements to the match types I specify individually.

*******************************************************************************

Tsuchinoko
"Rarely Plays"

Requirements:
1: Do not log in for 30 days.

Notes: This is a tricky rank to "test" for, for obvious reasons. I did in fact
not log in for twenty five days and did not receive it, but 30 days might not
be "correct" either. I'll explain: Tsuchinoko is based off the "Weekly Total"
screen, It may be a certain amount of "weeks" that need to be zeroed out, but
I'm not sure. I do know that Tsu will appear once you play a round after enough
time has passed, and will stay until that specific week is reset. After that
reset, you'll either go to any other rank you qualify for, or keep Tsu if
you have nothing else. Tsuchinoko is listed at the top since it can override
any rank, if only for a small period of time.

Wrong place to post.

This is from Gamefaqs. Some dude named Flowen made it.

True but, I did have methods tested by friends. As for the rest of the guide will be done totally on my own. GameFAQ is not were I got that from though :/

oh well I know that parts of it are least hosted at Gamefaqs.

This is a pre-1.30 Guide for the animal Ranks. It was created by HeathclifFlowen. The latest version Flowen has made is right here: http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/adventure/m ... pics;title

Nice, thanks for this.

This helps a lot, thanks anyway dude.
Now I would go for Tsu, but I cant stop playing for that long...
