So uh I'm going to guess that there was originally supposed to be a city environment given the fact that there is a lot of camouflage related to urban areas despite a whole two places sorta maybe being applicable

Is twin snakes worth getting over the original mgs? I do have an old gamecube somewhere.

[QUOTE=CertainDOOM;48652972]Is twin snakes worth getting over the original mgs? I do have an old gamecube somewhere.[/QUOTE] Only for either collector's sake or screwing around. It shouldn't replace the original MGS, because pretty much everyone phoned in their lines with little to no emotion besides David Hayter and Cam Clarke, and the MGS2 mechanics just don't work with the slightly-tweaked MGS1 environments. [sp]Plus while I don't like backtracking, they basically eliminated the need for it, and the resulting 'story wind-down time' with the PSG-1T and the two temperature pipes when it comes to Sniper Wolf and the PAL Key, respectively.[/sp] [QUOTE=Zeos;48652958]So uh I'm going to guess that there was originally supposed to be a city environment given the fact that there is a lot of camouflage related to urban areas despite a whole two places sorta maybe being applicable[/QUOTE] I wouldn't be surprised if [sp]the end game may have originally intended for some major shit to go down in a population center or so forth, like MGS2.[/sp]

So dumb question. How do I do the weapon customization glitch?

I cringed so hard when Big Boss and Quiet [sp]were playing in the rain togheter[/sp]

Trying to beat Quiet on Extreme, figured I'd try the supply drop strategy. She dodges the crate every time I try it. Why does it work for everyone else?

Post-31 spoilers Haven't started a single mission in[sp]Chapter 2 yet, but how many of the 'variant' chapter 1 missions come back for chapter 2 vs completely new story missions?[/sp]

[QUOTE=OzzyCockroach;48653099]doesnt work on extreme [sp]Just get a tank[/sp][/QUOTE] I just got a sniper. It's a lot more enjoyable if you beat her legit. Just poke out, back into cover, and when you hear her miss her shot, poke back out when she's getting her next shot ready. There is like, a 2/3 second delay.

[QUOTE=OzzyCockroach;48653099]doesnt work on extreme [sp]Just get a tank[/sp][/QUOTE] Or if you don't care about rank just [sp] airstrike the shit out of her [/sp]

[QUOTE=OzzyCockroach;48653099]doesnt work on extreme [sp]Just get a tank[/sp][/QUOTE] To be fair she dodged it in the normal encounter for me too.

So I'm trying to get S ranks on all missions and C2W is the last one I need, except it doesn't want to accept any rank higher than - ever since I accidentally completed it out of free roam before starting the mission. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3iBE4BH.png[/IMG] Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

All we can do is listen to the tapes i guess. [editline]10th September 2015[/editline] sorry to ask again but about the truth ending, what are the requirement? (S ranks, all side-ops?)

Endgame spoilers [sp]Vocal cord parasites are a cool idea but end up being a crutch for bad writing like nanomachines. Parasites are just the nanomachines of the 80s and that is soooo lame and I was hoping Kojima learned his lesson.

[QUOTE=butre;48651826]you'll figure it out in about 30 minutes.[/QUOTE] Well, do I need to see another Cutscene or what? I've finished Chapter One... didn't get any Quiet Cutscenes or anything

I've been spotted a few times trying to pick off people when previously at that range they either didn't see me or weren't sure what I was but couldn't or didn't feel like reaching me. In this case, your pot shots from afar at someone may have caused another guard to suddenly have their senses spike in your direction.

MGS V TPP is a "linear" story right? No choices...? Game ends at [sp]Mission 32[/sp]?

ok i'm getting some pretty conflicting answers trying to google this, so i'll ask here instead, big spoilers ahead [sp]So from what I've been able to gather, in order to get the true ending, Quiet needs to leave. She's supposed to leave right before the end, in mission 45. Apparently there's a few things you need to do to trigger it, all of which I did... But apparently, if you have the butterfly in your emblem, she won't leave anyway. I happened to have it in mine without knowing that was a thing, and she didn't leave... But I got and beat mission 46 anyway, which as far as I can tell is the true ending. But is it actually? Or was everyone just wrong about Quiet needing to leave?[/sp]

huh, I'll give the game a ton of shit, but it gave me my topic for my honours project

[sp] I really hope that's the case[/sp] Anyone know where to get good people for the Medical staff? I need it for the bandana and I'm ten levels below in there. I'm finding R&D up the wazoo but not enough Medical.

White Mamba spoilers [sp]So...was there supposed to be a battle? I just The End'd the bastard with my sniper and carried him to the helicopter. Once I get the child fulton I'll go redo that, battle included.[/sp]
