Forum:Holding up enemies

Hello, MGS wiki! I come to you with a question. And this question is...How to I get enemies who are lying prone to give up items in MGS3 Snake Eater HD? I've successfully done holdups on enemies who are lying prone, who surrender by dropping their long-arm, rolling onto their stomach, and putting their hands on their heads. Once they're in that submission position, the only way to get them to shake off items is to fire warning shots every time. Quite frankly, I don't have the ammo to spare. So how am I supposed to get them to drop their stuff without wasting bullets? That said, I've never had trouble getting items out of enemies I holdup who are standing. Just point a gun at them from the front and they'll dance for me. But when they're prone, I guess they can't see the fact that I'm pointing a weapon at them, and won't drop anything. And while we're here, how long will an enemy in the submission position on the ground stay there after I leave? They don't want to get up. 15:28, November 7, 2012 (UTC)
