Fox Codename

[aaronlg]

Hey, how do I earn the Fox codename in this game? I know the documentation says to repeatedly use stealth, but I've beaten 6 main missions in a row without being spotted or going into reflex mode. I'm also not using any rank-limiting items.

Every few missions, I've deliberately killed people to avoid getting Fox Hound. On one of these, the emeny started a search, and on the other they blindly fired in my direction a bit. However, the victory screen confirms the enemy never spotted me or triggered reflex mode. Even so, I keep getting Wolf or Octopus.

So what's the deal? Do I need to avoid the low-level alerts, too? Or maybe neutralize fewer people? Thanks.

Don't worry about it, you'll eventually get it.

The game's rating system is not inmediate, it's commulative. Meaning you may get Octopus for a few rounds before finally getting a different rank.

I myself get Fox from time to time, Foxhound too, and there's been very weird situations in which, for example, I got the Butterfly codename without even bringing Quiet into the missions at hand. (I think I even got the Bat one once too, and I don't even know why, I haven't gotten every Codename once even, I'd say it's just all kinds of messed up).

You have to beat 3 main missions in a row without being spotted. If you avoid killing people you will get the FoxHound codename, and if you kill people you will get the Fox codename.

Yeah, I still haven't gotten FOX yet either, though I've gotten Foxhound a dozen times.

you get fox by getting good

Same here, have not got the fox codename. got all the others. There are 26 total codenames.

Just replay Mission 11 and neutralize Quiet by using supply drops. After a few tries you'll get the FOX codename and eventually FOXHOUND.

Also if you kill everything with your buddys or your helicopter, you won't be spoted (if they don't spot you IN the heli, of course lol).

btw. I killed quiet a few times with sniper rifles to get her back. Then I got some fox codename. I guess she just can't "spot" you. She can see you of course, but reflex mode (the "spot") never seems to be triggerd.

Nice necro.

But this game's ranking system sucks.
This game wants to be a sandbox type game, but the ranking wants to force the players to play stealth and not use all the cool lethal weapons that you can get in the game.

How to actually get fox? 3 mission in row in complete stealth, except you kill some here and there. If you go no kills, it's foxhound.
