I had to use guides to beat more of this game than I'm proud to admit but thank you. It allowed me to enjoy this game in its entirety, and the insane storyline that this game puts forward.
Thank you for the video. Love your analysis and you pointed out things I never realized even after decades. I.E. that Liquid's fists being raised in Phase 1 indicates he's going to counterattack you and that you should go for a throw instead. I thought that was entirely random and I'd just flail at him like a toddler at the playground and get countered into oblivion. Currently stuck on him on the Master Collection version. Has pretty bad input lag which makes this fight a real pain. EDIT: YOU CAN DUCK HIS BULL CHARGE!? 20 years and I had no idea that attack was duckable! (I knew his kick can be ducked at least)
@@januszkurahenowski2860 played on normal difficulty aswell. took me like 10 tries and maybe 25 minutes for metal gear rex, but like 40 tries and 90 minutes for liquid.
I just wanted to comment and say you are the most beautiful bastard on planet earth. I couldn’t quite pull off the double punch method but I used the single punch one and absolutely annihilated him. Thank you mate 😂
After dying 129379002 times I figured out how to beat him. When his HP reaches almost less than 40% you hit him 2 times then wait for him to make his combos and hit again twice, when it reaches 20% hit him only once and keep cycling. When he reaches 10hp he gets extremely cheesy he will be making lots of combos do not attack him wait for him to charge at you try to avoid it and hit him. Boom
I done it first try last night haven't played it In a lot of years I got the bandanna.. played through there today for the stealth camo and I'm at the fight he has beat me 9 times in a row. I give up here lol I am so bad today think I'll have a rest and try tomorrow with a few of your tips I didn't know the crouch to avoid kick thing it's weird how stuff works sometimes lol
Hi, you can find an example of it being done on the collection here: czcams.com/video/EDaxt34Q-68/video.htmlsi=nsSYtEbenMMX1bqc&t=4662 In addition it is not a glitch, it is a planned aspect of the fight, as Kojima shows in this old Famitsu video: czcams.com/video/_Yw0WohfxL8/video.htmlsi=Le32310dzpkoZDGn&t=176 It's a tough technique, but I assure you it is possible. Good luck :)
I couldn’t get the hang of it, I either ran in that direction or choked him. Anyway I beat him the old fashioned way, I ran round like a mad man just jabbing him when I could.
I don't understand why people have difficulty with this boss. He wasn't as infiruating as the Second Sniper Wolf boss or as tough as REX (though Rex IS supposed to be an invincible threat). I mean, I only played it on normal so far, so I might not know how he behaves on Extreme, but still.
This fight is making me not only wish I didn't buy this trash, but not want to finish this game. And I planed on more play thoughs, but with this trash fuck it.
holy shit i hate this fight, yes let’s have a hand to hand combat fight where the guy who is obviously doing more damage and is a literal ai has invincibility frames

i freaking hate this fight, much harder than the metal gear rex fight. the ps1 controls are aaaaaass
I was able to use the infinite combo to beat Liquid with 2:08 left. Thank you so much for your great work!
this destroyed the experience for me. the invincibility thing is bullshit
Recently discovered and subscribed to your channel. Been playing this game for 23 years and its brand new again. Thanks.
Same here just learned ab this just picked up the legacy edition
Got it with my playstation Christmas 1999. Best memories of my life.
Took an 2 hours! Take this like you earned it
Great in-depth tutorial man 10/10.
Got a lot to learn including infinite punch :) looking forward to it
Thank you Plywood for these guides. They're really helpful
This was so much easier than the Rex fight, I was pleasantly surprised.
absolutely not
@@Flugmorph Ok, it was for me on normal difficulty and seemingly some people agree.
@@januszkurahenowski2860 played on normal difficulty aswell. took me like 10 tries and maybe 25 minutes for metal gear rex, but like 40 tries and 90 minutes for liquid.
Honestly mg rex is such a pain, liquids hard but honestly kind of a breath of fresh air lmao
@@Flugmorph Yeah, I remember having to try Rex many many times and finishing Liquid in a first couple times, weird that I found it so much easier
Been playing this since 99 never knew this lol

Happy to help, good job!

Wow played this game since 98 and did not know you can duck to avoid his attacks lol
He is my hardest boss in this game.

Keep up the good work
I fucking hate this boss so much it’s literally 10x harder than Rex
People claiming this is the easiest boss are TALKING OUT THEIR @$$$$$$$
Thanks for the video! The part about the throws being safe I don’t get though??? He counters when I try to throw every single time.
thank you so much
How was I even supposed to know that you can duck to avoid getting hit?
thx helped a fn lot
And the punch "glitch" is impossible in the collection vol 1 on console, anyone claiming to be able to do it is full of shit.

Hot grilled lamb 🐑
How do I throw him, I just end up chocking him?
just like guards, hold a movement direction while pressing square

Second sniper wolf is the easiest boss fight, all you need is the Nikita launcher and she’s help less
@@imamhussain9506 I'm talking about the legit way, which is using the PSG-1. Probably everybody uses the Nikita method against her.
Second sniper wolf is easy this shit much harder and i did it using the psg 1
7:47
I. Fucking. Hate. This. Boss
This fight is making me not only wish I didn't buy this trash, but not want to finish this game. And I planed on more play thoughs, but with this trash fuck it.
by far the easiest fight of the game imo
