How did like, three of the systems ported over from PW get [I]worse?[/I]

So I just failed mission 22 and [sp]the game told me I lost some of my R&D staff, is there any way to get them back? I can't seem to choose to do the mission again as I got it from an emercy thingy[/sp],

I've just beaten [B]SPOILERS[/B] [sp]Sahelanthropus[/sp] Holy fuck.

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;48654395]So about the last part of mission 18 [sp]Blood Runs Deep[/sp], does that enemy gunship always see pequod at the end? I think that missions very last section is bullshit because the chopper is called in automatically where there are two guys stationed and pequod instantly gets spotted and gunned down by the gunship.[/QUOTE] [sp]No, I managed to sneak the children out without getting spotted by the gunship at all. I think there's a scripted moment where the chopper hovers over you, but if you stay still, it will just move on. I think you will always have guys from the mine looking for you once they notice that the kids are missing.[/sp]

[QUOTE=kattolil;48654558]I kinda liked the boss fights so far, I'm at mission 31 so don't know if theres more to come. But the [sp]Quiet fight and Sahelanthropus fight were p good, I can see why kojima wanted an open world for the metal gear. If only we got to use it. And not the battle gear, but Sahelanthropus.[/sp][/QUOTE] you cant use [sp]battle gear[/sp] infact you cant even deploy it on missions because the game is completely unfinished

[QUOTE=RikohZX;48654584][sp]Battle Gear is a part of the game that shows in cutscenes earlier on but didn't make it to the final product in a useable state. The Strategy Guide apparently says you could deploy Battle Gear but it's not there in the final product. Hell, it disappears from the plot altogether.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]some of the srank deployment missions need it, that's all[/sp]

[QUOTE=Paranoia10;48654604]I've just beaten [B]SPOILERS[/B] [sp]Sahelanthropus[/sp] Holy fuck.[/QUOTE] I beat him with just D-Walker's minigun. Anyway I thought up another shitty fan theroy. The rivaly between Ocelot and Big Boss, is just sibling rivaly. Ocelot is [sp]the Boss's son, and Snake was pretty much like an adopted son to the Boss.[/sp]

So I noticed my deployment cost has gotten fucking insanely high because of all the higher level gear I'm using, and since unlocking the rocket arm I've been using my guns less and less due to how great the arm is. I've decided to strip down my gear to the bare essentials, and all my guns to the lowest level I can without loosing higher ammo counts. My deployment cost is like a fifth of what it was, and I use 10 times less resources too.

[QUOTE=Limed00d;48654448]so uh about the website that's been under heavy speculation to be another kojima ruse cruise ([url]http://ingsoc.org/[/url]) I just noticed the picture has the same photographic style as P.T. uhm[/QUOTE] Ripped from the site's source code.

Uhhhhh I just found a radio in the world that's playing the radio news transmission from P.T.

It was just so awesome to watch with Gimme Shelter playing from it. And the dialouge from Peaquad made it even better.

I finished the game. My proudest moment in the game was [sp]taking out Quiet only with a tranquilizer pistol.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Jmir 54;48654202]Ending spoilers [sp]is there a battle going on when Medic Snake is listening to Big Boss' message to him? Also what happened to medic snake after TPP[/sp][/QUOTE] I have a theory on this matter because nobody else has brought up yet. [sp]When he listens to the tape Big Boss sends him, he seems overall okay with the whole situation, even liking it, but once he plays the Operation Intrude N313 tape, he seems to change. It appears that the sounds trigger some kind of behavior in his subconscious (probably implemented during hypnotherapy) that changes him into something evil.Seeing himself completely bloody in the mirror, long horn in his head, smashing the mirror. Not because he hates himself, he almost does it robotic and by command. After he smashes it, he sees himself as the "normal" Venom again but the normal Venom appears to actually be inside the mirror. The Venom in the mirror turns away from him and walks away, leaving the Demon Venom behind. It's as if his personality changed into something evil and "normal" Venom is now leaving for good. Just like the ending of Oldboy. I'm pretty sure that Big Boss is using him at this point as simple cannonfodder, activating Venom's last mission... to be killed by Solid Snake. Am I the only one with this interpretation?[/sp] [QUOTE=latin_geek;48654478]They definitely do, I've found mice, hedgehogs, etc. No snakes, though.[/QUOTE] But not for the cats, foxes, snakes (except one cutscene), bats, gekkos, scorpions and tortoise. You do see the mice, hedgehogs or guinea pigs on the animal plattform, but not the others.

[QUOTE=NoNameForEvil;48654651]i meant deploy it on deployment missions or w/e, with your dudes. i am 99% sure it said i could do that and i swear miller or huey asked me to do so so it could get field tested or w/e i swear to fuck if they actually removed that too then that's just ridiculous really???? that's unbelievable. how is it [i]less useful than fucking ZEKE??[/i][/QUOTE] I'd rather have ZEKE than the battle gear, cause it's trash.

Especially with the five million GMP limit.

I hate that buddy level up sound. Because in other games that sound is actually used for an "All clear, Snake's not around" and I end up getting confused as hell.

[QUOTE=ZeroTimesCookie;48654693]"Don't touch that dial" Well if this isn't P.T., then I'm gonna rip my dick off :toxx:[/QUOTE] Theres no going back now.

Just wondering for those who finished the game. How long did it take you to finish? I'm 54 hours in and only on mission 20. I feel like I'm behind and should be further in the game.

[QUOTE=ZeroTimesCookie;48654693]"Don't touch that dial" Well if this isn't P.T., then I'm gonna rip my dick off :toxx:[/QUOTE] oh look at what you've done now. do you regret it yet?

So where do I find the "Final Countdown" cassette tape?

[QUOTE=Korro Bravin;48654684]I'd rather have ZEKE than the battle gear, cause it's trash.[/QUOTE] Just think that all this time since GZ to MGS4 in the timeline there's a metal gear just sitting there submerged at the bottom of the Caribbean sea. I really thought we'd be getting it back in TPP and there'd be a good ol' fashioned robot fight like in MGS4. [editline]10th September 2015[/editline] like nobody actually thinks "man we should go get Zeke back"

[QUOTE=Rawko;48653800]It took me so long to find [sp]Volgin's body in that side-op[/sp], holy shit[/QUOTE] Oh good, I'm not the only one who had that problem. Felt like a goddamn idiot when I finally found it :v:

[QUOTE=RikohZX;48654688]It feels like limited GMP, resources, and the severe deployment costs later in the game are basically designed to force you to sparingly use the better equipment. Especially with the five million GMP limit.[/QUOTE] All it did was made me make sure to pick up enough of a specific resource to cover my deployment cost every time. I used all the high level stun/tranq shit, and they have very little advantages compared to the cheaper stuff.

[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;48654747]So where do I find the "Final Countdown" cassette tape?[/QUOTE] In a [sp]side ops[/sp], just keep playing. (to the disagree) I don't want to give him the exact location, he could just Google it up.

can someone post that guide on the weapons customization exploit? I lost it

[QUOTE=ZeroTimesCookie;48654693]"Don't touch that dial" Well if this isn't P.T., then I'm gonna rip my dick off :toxx:[/QUOTE] Hey speaking of :toxx: Rusty still hasn't banned me for a month.

I used all the high level stun/tranq shit, and they have very little advantages compared to the cheaper stuff.[/QUOTE] To be honest, it's a lot easier to just use your combat deployments to get your plant based resources and your base development to get your others. I've never had to go out of my way to keep myself stocked for deployments and I carry 2 upgraded tranq guns, sleep grenades and mines, noctocyanin and acceleramin among other things.
