I noticed something, gonna spoil it just in case I say something spoiler-worthy
[sp]So y'know how during the hospital scene Mantis actually gets controlled by Venom's rage and has the shrapnel? Notice that the only thing he destroys during that is the XOF chopper with the big fire whale. If you remember the Paz scene when it shows how Medic imagined the GZ helicopter incident he put the blame on the XOF chopper that passed by instead of Paz's 2nd bomb. So I'm wondering: Did Mantis destroy that chopper because Venom had so much anger against the chopper, even though deep down he knew it was his fault (technically) the heli went kaboom?[/sp]
[QUOTE=RikohZX;48818831]The theme that Metal Gears seem to have in MGSV is a mix of intimidation and utility. D-Walker is after all, an extremely cumbersome and difficult to use platform, but mastery can allow you to speed through a village with a gatling gun to slaughter every single unlucky bastard in your path. Meanwhile Sahelanthropus is an overpowered thing, but way too implausible to be of truly efficient use in real-life - but [sp]Skull Face's plan hinged entirely on the world merely finding out about such a thing to cause social unrest and governmental unhinging from the resulting chaos.[/sp][/QUOTE]
Yeah, I had trouble with Walker's Drive Mode at first but after I mastered it I found it way more useful than D-Horse or a jeep.

this would actually make an amusing amount of sense with d-dog's origins in Africa from the gameplay demos, since chico somehow managed to sneak off of the first Mother Base and then get to Camp Omega all on his own
chico-dog, true wanderer
[QUOTE=Mbbird;48820807]Yeah I don't think they thought out PF battles [i]at all[/i] if defending successes need 1.5-2x superiority for the defender and security teams are naturally going to be 1.5-2x [i]weaker[/i] than combat teams, while defense level is going to not vary much at all and development level doesn't matter for anything.
So pointless.[/QUOTE]
There's a degree of randomness to it, I've seen successful defences with half the grade of the attacker. Most defences seem to fail though.
Either way there's no way to influence the outcome so there's really no point in getting excited about them, they're pretty much the equivalent of automatic deployment
[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;48820857]Can you elaborate on what you mean by low espionage rank meaning they play fobs most?
Your esp rank goes up when you win does it not?[/QUOTE]
You get espg. points for pretty much anything you do with FOBs so low numbers (low = smaller number = higher rank) means he's more likely to invade a lot and you get more opportunities to defend
Though it's entirely possible they got it by defending but it's still your best bet. I got 2k rank despite having done only a couple infiltrations and like 70 defences

It's easier to just sneak up to them in a cardboard box, they will recognize you.

no it was because the chopper was about to shoot them.

had an idea about the [sp]skullface car driving scene[/sp]
[sp]
First of all, this happens after the quarantine event where you have to kill your own men, this helps the player actually despise skull face rather than him being a cartoon villain.
Venom gets in the car with him, believing he has no choice. He's outnumbered and outgunned. Skull face starts narrating out his master plan, snake is clearly emotionally shredded from all that has happened, perhaps even have him hallucinate (due to horn) the dead DD and MSF soldiers on the side of the road saluting him.
Have him clenching his fists in nearly unrestrained rage while skull face prattles on. He knows to draw his gun on skull face would be suicide, but suddenly it doesn't matter anymore. This isn't a cutscene about how Kaz, Snake or the main cast have known loss, it's about the DD and MSF soldiers that died trying to pursue Outer Heaven. Mid-sentence from Skull face, venom stands up and draws his gun on him, the car jerks to a stop - behind him you can see all of the MSF and DD soldiers that have died throughout the game with their own weapons drawn, front and centre being the 'I'm no snail' lab DD soldier, all covered in blood but smiling. You could even have it so that Venom's rage is of such potency that the DD and MSF soldiers actually appear due to Mantis, him taking control of him for a moment because of all the loss Venom has experienced.
Skull face can say something like 'Remember the Alamo', attempting to remain cool, and you could have Venom say something like 'You're all diamonds' or whatever, but either way he pulls the trigger and shoots Skull face right there, with all the MSF and DD soldiers smiling on and has to kill his way through the remaining XOF soldiers. This avoids the "MAJOR I'M BUUUUURNING UUUUP WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO". You could have skull face survive venom's first shot, and then do the shotgun kaz bit after when all of the XOF soldiers are killed.
Then you make the fall of Venom and Big Boss being about how they cared too much about the soldiers they lead - incapable of taking another loss their madness leads them to build Outer Heaven and Zanzibarland, so they will never know such loss again as they build bigger and bigger 'Mother Bases' to protect the soldiers they have. Eventually leading to them building Metal Gears as the ultimate defence (mostly the story anyway, so we ain't changing much).

probably shit, but wanted to write it down somewhere
-snip nevermind I misunderstood-
I found a cool little detail I haven't heard about before [sp]I returned to the quarantine platform of MB to pick up an emblem part there. To my surprise in two cells there were two of each Skull variant I fultoned. 2 mist and 2 armor Skulls in one cell, 2 female Skulls in the other. I finally noticed the female Skulls are also very little dressed.[/sp]
