Conspicuously Selective Perception: Difference between revisions

*** In Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, the soldiers pretty much ALWAYS find cardboard boxes you're hiding in suspicious, and they check if someone's inside ''by shooting them'', which renders the trick pretty useless. Also, they sometimes walk right on them, which hurts you, but somehow they still don't notice there's someone inside.

** In Metal Gear Solid 4, much of the early game takes place in a various warzones. It is possible to disguise yourself as a rebel fighter during these sequences. However, if a PMC soldier notices Snake, they will immediately go full alert and ignore the other dozen or so rebels attacking them to hunt you down.

* In ''[[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|Golden Eye 1997]]'', guards will not react to the "[[Hollywood Silencer|pew-pew]]" of a silenced gun even if it originates from inches away from them. They will also not notice you shooting their helmets off their heads.

** Also, in missions where you have to shoot out all the security cameras, nobody notices all the screens fill with static, one by one.
