So apparently I'm not allowed to have more than five million gmp :v:

Guys I need your help quickly I invaded this guy's FOB for revenge and now I can't exit through the door at the top because of an alarm and I can't flee for some reason. What do I do? 7min left

[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;48626292]So apparently I'm not allowed to have more than five million gmp :v:[/QUOTE] I'm a pretty greedy guy, and I always used the cheapest loadout I could manage with when I started a mission, so I found this out very early on. Ever since then I've just been trying to burn through GMP faster than I can make it, and I've still got around 4 Million GMP at any given time.

Am I right to think that the sneaking suit is more visible during the day than fatigues with the right camo? Also, what is your go-to camo for ops in [sp]Africa[/sp]?

desert and woodland of course unless there are naked versions, always go with those.

So what can I sell from my resources menu? I have guns and mortars that I don't think I'll ever use, flowers that probably won't be entirely useful to me, and tanks that I don't think I'll ever use. Is it safe to sell these things, or will I need them for later?

Game crashed right as I [sp]escaped from the skulls after recuing kaz[/sp] nice :suicide:

[QUOTE=Big Dumb American;48626280]Trying to avoid this thread so nothing gets spoiled, but I'm 20% of the way through TPP and having an incredible time. I was just wondering if it is being developmentally abandoned now that it's released, in light of this Konami fuckery? Like, will there be no additional future content? It's a game that is absolutely ripe for expansion through DLC with new missions, areas, weapons, vehicles, and buddies. If it more more content for the last, and greatest, Metal Gear Game of all time, I'd even begrudgingly pull out my wallet for some paid DLC. Failing that, do you think there's any chance the modding community will be able to do anything with TPP, or is it locked down pretty tight? I'm not totally sure how that works.[/QUOTE] If anything, there is some post-release patching up to do.

What the hell are you supposed to do?!

Same as some doors in sp? You cant go in if its on alert phase so you should have waited it out or killed everyone

[QUOTE=Louis;48626376]Same as some doors in sp? You cant go in if its on alert phase so you should have waited it out or killed everyone[/QUOTE] I killed everyone, there was nobody left to defeat. I checked everywhere with sonar and I searched the place

whats the point of gun emplacements and mortars for your base, or even your FOB? is there ever a time you get attacked by helicopters?

[QUOTE=TheJoey;48626407]whats the point of gun emplacements and mortars for your base, or even your FOB? is there ever a time you get attacked by helicopters?[/QUOTE] Usually when you upgrade your FOB like MB with extra platforms the AI will use Mortars if they've pinned you in say the R&D platform.

[QUOTE=waylander;48626263]do you ever get a silencer for the UN-ARC-NL? i was thinking itd be interesting to take the water pistol to sabotage radios but stil want a gun to knock people out quietly[/QUOTE] Fourth upgrade in the line. I think that's also the last upgrade in the line. [editline]6th September 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Valiantttt;48626286]custom weapons allow for silencers on the UN ARC NL[/QUOTE] Nope. Muzzle device is locked out until you get the version with the suppressor.

Okay, another FOB related question: is there a way to turn it off? I wanna do the rest of the side ops, but I get alerts every few minutes. [editline]6th September 2015[/editline] Being offline still allows people to infiltrate your FOB I think

"Boss, the child soldiers will see you as an enemy, but they're still just kids, don't kill them" Kaz, they have AKs and won't hesistate to shoot me, fuck your geneva convention bullshit. He's just lucky my regular loadout is all-nonlethal.

Holy fuck, [sp]I've not got the quarantine zone set up so I put all my Kikongo-speaking soldiers into the waiting room. The thing is, they keep fucking leaving it, and I get no notification or anything that this shit happened. And it keeps fucking happening, holy shit[/sp]

And yet I dread playing this game with functioning servers, because they're not actually optional unless they meant 'if you play offline so the game doesn't pressure you into one,' because from everything I've heard the FOB system is complete shit.

So, apparently, Stun Grenades *kill* African children. Just putting that out there.

Whatever happened to that cutscene with the African soldier teaching the child soldiers how to hold their weapons? Was it just removed?

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;48626514]Whatever happened to that cutscene with the African soldier teaching the child soldiers how to hold their weapons? Was it just removed?[/QUOTE] No. It's in the first mission of Africa. In an outpost near the Oilfield. But it's not an actual cutscene.

[QUOTE=Chains!;48626517]No. It's in the first mission of Africa. In an outpost near the Oilfield. But it's not an actual cutscene.[/QUOTE] I guess i missed it.

[t]http://puu.sh/k1YJ5/e20283dcda.png[/t] what a thrill that mission was

So, the child soldiers can't withstand the shock of fulton, but child soldiers [I]thrown into a jeep[/I] can. That's three per jeep, too. Doesn't work on regular injured adults, they just slip off.

Wasn't it said that the layout of your FOBs was fully customizable? 'Cuz that sure seems like a lot of hooplah from what I can see. :T

Anyone using a 980 Ti, I have maxed out settings but what DSR/downscaling setting works best for you? I chug only when Quiet is dashing around me and her particles are flying in my face, would dropping effects quality work for that? [QUOTE=Nidhogg;48626230]Oh, that. I didn't even notice that was there.[/QUOTE] It's okay man, it's not a world ending spoiler, I knew[sp]he would turn up at some point[/sp] I really like the thread I just feel like every time I come here I can read 98% of the posts but there's always a little bit that's spoiled (sometimes as an honest accident like yours, but sometimes someone has to be a shameless cunt and spoil blatantly for no good reason [sp]read: recent Sniper wolf costume spoiler[/sp]) and remove a some enjoyment or surprise out of the game for people I should probably just whizz through and speed read I guess.
