Metal Gear Solid - A Hideo Kojima Thread - More black lines than a CIA file - Games

Guys, any advice on beating [sp]the skulls on the airfield[/sp] on Extreme? I [sp]lost Quiet[/sp], so I have no proper help.

What is the fucking logic to invasion notifications seriously. I thought you only ran the risk of having another player defend his base on a combat alert, but apparently just having people searching for you warrants a defense too. Now I've lost Smoking Wasp and Stone Python because the enemy AI can see through 4 floors of grate and instantly spot me. Fuck FOBs I'm done.

To prevent losing 20+ hours of progress again, I have to make it a habit to only close the game while in the ACC, otherwise I'd risk it not loading. At least I progressed WAY more than my last playthrough

God, im like 20 hours in and im only at Episode 8. I need to stop hunting for minerals and medicinal plants. [sp]Im going to keep hunting for minerals and medicinal plants.[/sp]

Make use of Gliding Mode to become a harder target. When Skulls try to throw rocks, keep shooting at the rocks until they break. If one of them stands still to spray mist, get close and shoot him with the Gatling gun. You should easily be able to remove half it's health in one go. When you're out of ammo, call in for a support drop and repeat.[/sp]

do i really have to play these SUBSISTENCE and EXTREME variants of past missions to progress the story after mission 32? i really dont want to

[QUOTE=dvc;48627795]do i really have to play these SUBSISTENCE and EXTREME variants of past missions to progress the story after mission 32? i really dont want to[/QUOTE] Side ops

[QUOTE=dvc;48627795]do i really have to play these SUBSISTENCE and EXTREME variants of past missions to progress the story after mission 32? i really dont want to[/QUOTE] Seems doing side ops is good enough. The subsistence missions are very fun though, they start you off with no weapons just the fist.

Nevermind guys, I did it! Without [sp]D-Walker[/sp], too! [sp]The skulls seem to be too stupid to get through that main building at the airport. Just walk through it a few times until they are close to the door and not doing anything besides attacking you occasionally, then order air strikes on them. They will get through the building once they get hit, but you can just repeat the process.[/sp] Worked for me.

Is there a calling to the night tape?

[QUOTE=Rossy167;48627660]So I'm pretty new to MGS so I may be missing some key details but is [sp]Black Mamba who I think he is?[/sp][/QUOTE] Yep, he is in fact [sp]Fat Man.[/sp]

Anyone know how much Boasters actually lie about their rank?

Spoilers below [sp]but was i the only one who saw The Man on Fire and immediately thought it was Volgin? It was mostly the little wires on his suit that matched Volgin's. So i wasn't all too surprised when Ocelot told me The Man on Fire was Volgin.[/sp]

[QUOTE=simkas;48626599]Is there any way you can upgrade how much ammo you can carry?[/QUOTE] Upgrade the box [editline]6th September 2015[/editline] wow this is really late sorry [editline]6th September 2015[/editline] Also wrong I just remembered it increases how many boxes you can have not how much ammo you have.

I had no doubts that it was Volgin[/sp]

So, i like to have my Metal Gear Solid games on display (I need to get the PSP ones someday) But here's my problem... The cover art for 4 and 5... Looks generic. [t]https://i.imgur.com/r53Ycmd.jpg[/t] So i whipped up some new ones in photo shop using Yoji Shinkawa's art and i'll be printing them. The MGS4 one is still a bit of a W.I.P [t]http://puu.sh/k2fF8/99057197a3.png[/t] [t]http://puu.sh/k2eYt/9b7b8794a5.png[/t]

Apparently this audio was cut. TRUE ENDING SPOILERS [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JbUfSICGiU[/url]

That leg armor made it way too obvious and also the bandolier[/sp]

Can someone tell me how bad the game just got ruined for me? Somewhat upset (not sure if this is ending talk). [sp]Found out my guards are all sick with chest bump-itis. Did some random guess work that it was language based so waiting to see how that turns out. Decided to take a break though and went to youtube to watch random junk and front page had BIG BOSS QUARANTINE SCENE EPIC on it and HOSPITAL SCENE REVISITED FOR REAL. I didn't click on either video for obvious reasons but feeling pretty demotivated now if I just had the ending ruined through clickbait titles.[/sp]

How many "Wandering MSF dude" side ops are there?

So when abouts does it let me make Allies with FOBs?

[QUOTE=Sift;48623572]Nope. Why jump to stupid accusations? [sp]I get to the final platform and start climbing up but I cannot see shit going up so enemies constantly get the drop on me and even then my suppressor usually runs out alarming everyone- and everyone seems to spot me no matter what after that. It's really fucking garbage.[/sp][/QUOTE] Rocket punch them all into a stun, save your suppressor for the final platform, you'll need it. The rocket punch thing is actually super stealthy, anyway.

what must I do after mission 21? I didn't get a new mission after it.
