Run 2 is a second Tanker-Plant game, on Easy, played for that difficulty's dog tags. This section covers the Tanker: the same climb to the Navigational Deck, the walk down through the Engine Room and Deck 2, and the three timed holds. Snake starts with the M9, the Scope, the Camera and Cigarettes again, and picks up the USP and the Thermal Goggles on the way as before. The pickups, boxes, photos and locker trophies were all taken in run 1 and are not listed again; the rows here are the checkpoints, the Easy tag holders and one tranquilizer trophy.
Easy has 26 Tanker holders against Normal's 33, and most stand where run 1's did. Per area: three on the Aft Deck, one in the Deck-A Crew's Quarters, three in the Crew's Lounge (one only after the boss fight), one on Deck B, none on Deck C, two on Deck D, Olga and the wing guard up top, six in the Engine Room, three on Deck-2 Port, two in Hold No. 1, three in Hold No. 3 and none in Hold No. 2. Two of the hold marines stand in the front row of a crowd and need the darts-and-drag method on their rows. The M9 is the hold-up gun throughout. Run 1's 33 tags don't reach any reward, so there are no special items yet; with these 26 the Tanker total reaches 59, past the Bandana's 50, and its trophy comes once this run is cleared. From a second game on, Special > Dog Tag Viewer on the clear save shows where every holder stands, and looking through the Camera or the Scope shows a name over each guard whose tag you already hold.
The door at the end of Deck-2 Port leads into the forced firefight and from there straight into the timed holds. Nothing confirms the decks above can be walked back to afterwards, so check first that you hold the 21 Easy tags so far: the Aft Deck's three, Deck A's four (one in the Crew's Quarters, three in the lounge), Deck B's one, Deck D's two, Olga's, the wing guard's, the Engine Room's six and Deck-2 Port's three. Grip should be at Lv. 3. Save on 140.96 before you go through.
When Otacon accepts the four photos, the Tanker is closed for this run and the game moves on to the Plant. Check that you hold every one of these first. Dog tags (Easy): Aft Deck, guard 1; Aft Deck, guard 2; Aft Deck, guard 3; Deck A, Crew's Quarters, guard 1; Deck A, Crew's Lounge, guard 1; Deck A, Crew's Lounge, guard 2; Deck B, Crew's Quarters, guard 1; Deck D, Crew's Quarters, guard 1; Deck D, storeroom stairs guard; Olga; Navigational Deck Wing guard; Deck A, Crew's Lounge, guard 3; Engine Room, guard 1; Engine Room, guard 2; Engine Room, guard 3; Engine Room, guard 6; Engine Room, guard 4; Engine Room, guard 5; Deck 2, Port, guard 1; Deck 2, Port, guard 2; Deck 2, Port, guard 3; Hold No. 1, front-row marine; Hold No. 1, upper-level marine; Hold No. 3, second-floor marine; Hold No. 3, dozing marine; Hold No. 3, front-row marine. Optional: Retake the marine photo if run 1 missed it (upload it before the four photos). An Easy tag missed here comes back only by playing the Tanker on Easy again from a clear save.
