Seems like the choice of pope was the wrong one.

Explanations include an unknown virus, a fungus that has infected the water...
That's not too apocalyptic...

Dying by a virus is pretty lame. I suggest we write a letter to all powers of the world: "Hey douchebags, launch those nukes. We're going down anyway so you could at last make party out of it!".

Born in the early 1860s, The End is over 100 years old during the events of the game, set in 1964. He is a veteran of countless wars, and is considered to be the world's greatest sniper, as he originated all sniping techniques. He is said to never require a spotter, and can stay in the same prone sniping position without moving for days at a time. This is partially because he is an apparent autotroph - the energy provided by the photosynthetic moss that grows inside and outside of his body lets him go long periods without food or water.

As with the other members of the Cobra unit, his codename signifies the emotion he feels while on the battlefield ("the end" implies death). Since he is very old and incredibly close to death, he will often fall asleep during a battle. His closest companion, a parrot, will wake him up.

The End is also an expert on camouflage. His uniform consists of actual moss and leaves, and the sniping positions he chooses conceal him well. When in a prone position, he becomes "one" with the area - his body temperature lowers so that it is close to that of the surrounding foliage. This makes spotting him with thermal goggles difficult.

He is armed with a Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle that fires tranquilizer rounds. He also uses stun grenades.

The End was ultimately defeated by Naked Snake during a long sniper duel that took place in Sokrovenno, a large forest.

Ok, I admit that to this point I figured this is some kind of your joke, Megatron. You know, a pretty stupid story to amuse people. I mean, moss sybiote? And parrot wakes him up... LOLZORORZOR!!!111

It was gay. I used night vision so I could see him and I ran up and shot him with the shotgun.

I stopped playing that game soon after the flaming cosmonaut.

I'm stuck at the flaming cosmonaut, this part sucks, it's too long and annoying. Is there any easy trick to defeat him? D:

Just get up close and personal and pull off a combo with the knife on him.. It fucks up his suit.
