How to unlock the Genesis trophy

    You open up all Side Ops once the Ground Zeroes mission is completed (the Deja Vu Extra Op will unlock once you have collected all nine XOF patches).

    Here is an S-Rank guide to probably the easiest Side Op, which will also net you the Infiltration trophy. I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THIS SOLUTION. It is found here:

    There are many ways to go about this mission. If you don't want to bother with the story or you're on your second playthrough, here is the easiest way to beat it and get an S Rank and a Trophy.

    Stay on the truck. Be patient and stay low. It will eventually pass a gate and park. Your target is the guard tower at the back off the truck. Jump off the truck and make your way under and then over the obstacles while sticking to the left side of the map. You will see a ladder just ahead leading to the top of the walkway you're under.

    Watch out for guards patrolling the area. Without getting detected (you can tranq the guards, if you want), climb the ladder and run to the guard tower. Climb the ladder. Before entering, look to the top left inside the tower, next to the entrance. There's a camera. Take it out. Go inside, grab the tap inside the tower on the console. It's time to get back to the truck.

    You don't need to go back to the ladder. Simply jump off the railing and hop back on the truck. Stay low and wait. The truck will exit the camp and finally the entire mission area with you on it. Instant S Ranking. You will learn that there is a second tape, however. To get it, you need to spend a bit more time.

    To do the mission the alternate, long way, you can jump off the truck as soon as you get control of Snake. Just hop off the left side of the truck before it rounds the corner near the West Refugee Camp.

    The two guards you passed on the road are still heading your way - either hide and let them go by, or use your tranquilizer gun to knock them out.

    Climb the western watchtower and neutralize the guard, then interact with the spotlight to signal your contact. He'll appear in a few minutes - use your binoculars to mark him and the soldier he's traveling with.

    Once they reach your location, put his comrade out with a sleep dart and approach the contact from behind. He'll tell you about the tape located in the central guard tower, so knock him out and head towards the administration building.

    Unfortunately, the guard tower is a trap - you can overhear this from two guards in the Warehouse Area, or realize it on your own when you find the security camera just behind the door. This ambush can be countered by either shooting the camera or disabling the power supply to the Administration building - both options will put the guards on alert.

    Sneak up to the tower, grab the tape and sneak back out. You'll need to be especially careful on the way out, as an APC is now rolling around the helipad.

    If you want the secret second tape, find the undercover agent again. Grab him and make him talk and he will tell you that a bald agent has it. You will find him in the boiler room or, depending on timing, you may see him talking directly to the undercover operative.

    Make your way to an extraction point, or stealthily make your way into the bed of the truck parked in the Warehouse Area to escape via land and earn the Infiltration trophy.

    TAPES
    Agent's Recording: Classified Intel Aquisition Side-Op. Found in the central watch tower in the Administration Building. Technically you do not have to find the undercover soldier in order to get this. An easy was to get this is to simply stay in the truck that you begin the mission in until it has reached its destination at the Administration Building.

    Classified Intel Data: Classified Intel Aquisition Side-Op, when you go to retrieve the Agent's Recording, notice the camera in the room with the tape before you enter. If you radio Miller about it or are caught by it, Miller will mention that this was a setup. Find the undercover agent and make him answer for this deception. He will tell you that the real tape is in the hands of a marine with a shaved head. The marine in question is found down in the boiler room. Sneak up and make him give up the tape.
