[QUOTE=The Rizzler;48628590]Got my first FOB, been dreading this moment. Saved up GMP for hours beforehand so I could research all the starting security devices as well as start building four platforms. Can anyone give me some tips? There's no steam guides or really any decent online guides at all for FOBs.
I have my guys set to nonlethal, rank B guards, grade 3 equipment. What do people mean when they say 'checkpoints'? What is 'Preparedness' for? When do I get charged security costs, and is it worth going all out? Also if an enemy reaches the target zone, do they really steal ALL of the personnel off of the platform? Could anyone cover my ass (FOB) while I get my bearings (+ how would I advertise my own FOB for people to add as a relationship?)
I never asked for this feature

Choosing other players FOBs to support is completely random? Am I fucking reading this right? Thinking about it some cunt could be in my FOB right now without me knowing about it, fuck[/QUOTE]
We don't know. Good luck!
How well optimized is MGSV on the PC? If my computer struggles with Mad Max occasionally, should I just get it on PS4?

post specs
I got the Fulton outfit for DD earlier, and I think it might be the cutest thing ever.

Fulton outfit?
I'm still sort of confused by the F.O.B. system. How does it say I have A+ and even some S+ staff on my F.O.B. when I don't have the amount of S+ staff it says I have, and none of my high ranking staff are even on my Security detail?
Do my staff automatically show up to my F.O.B. to defend it even if they aren't on the security team? Because that's really annoying when I wake up to find out my support unit leveled down from an invasion the servers kept keeping me out of due to connection errors the night before.

Runs really well. What are your specs?

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;48628676]Fulton outfit?[/QUOTE]
Makes DD [sp]able to fulton guys for you.[/sp]
[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;48628676]Fulton outfit?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, it gives you the command for him to Fulton a near by enemy after you knocked them out.
It's like a little medic outfit for him. It's so adorable.
Anybody like my emblem?

I tried to make it accurate to the sprite colours their uniform is too.

I don't really know off the top of my head. I have an older model Vaio that was a beast when it was new with its quad core hyperthreaded i7, but the graphics card is becoming a chokepoint for newer games. The card is a Radeon 7600M. It can handle most games from the past couple years on maximum or near maximum settings without dipping below 30 fps but Mad Max has been continually stressing it, so I'm worried about MGSV.

How do you get it? The only ones I have are battle dress (knife) and (stun) and nothing else despite having him maxed.

No clue how I got it, sorry. It just popped up as some point while I was playing, not sure what caused it.
found out you can get around the skulls in the EX Code Talker mission by driving through it in a tank.
otherwise they just snipe and murder you
didn't honestly expect it to work
thats teh only reason i passed that mission
[sp]The amount of quiet fanservice is really annoying[/sp]

You get it by [sp]Getting a medical blueprint thing in the first africa mission in the village[/sp]
How are you guys connecting to online? I keep getting the 10003 error.
This game can be pretty intense sometimes.

[QUOTE=RAG Frag;48628781][sp]The amount of quiet fanservice is really annoying[/sp][/QUOTE]
The amount of attention Quiet got despite only being a buddy is really annoying.
Just invaded my own FOB for a test, managed to easily extract at least 10 guys despite deliberately running into 3 gas mines and being as loud as possible. Not good. A bunch of reinforcements turned up from nowhere as well, extracted them too
What's the difference between lethal and non lethal - do you just die straight away and fail the invasion with lethal? Is there any reason to have above E grade guards? So many damn questions and I don't think anyone has the answer
Well at least I can have 3 combat deployments going on at any time. :toot:
FOB security doesn't mean shit. People can just rambo through everything with a non-lethal weapon and extract everything.
Remember when people worried about purchased FOBs granting an unfair example? You'd have to be a machoist to force yourself through more of this.
Meanwhile I still can't get online...
Do you get anything special for doing exteme skull fights?
I was doing mission 28 (I believe) when [sp]The Skull snipers showed up. I had no idea how to handle 4 of them but Quiet suddenly started fighting them I moved up a little bit when she had to get fultoned to safety. I couldn't get a bead on them so I started wondering if I could escape. I then had to employ the most devious escape method possible.[/sp]

I did it! On to mission 50.
So whats with mission 12 being so finicky on the last third of it?
I complete the objective and get out of sight from [sp]MG:S[/sp] but that fucker Pequiod doesn't want to touch down because he's a piece of shit and should die because he fucked up what was basically an S-rank no kills stealth run.
invading someone's BCU and stealing 50k of each resource is insane
why can i do this
Are there any rewards for s ranking missions like PW in TPP? Like do you get specific design documents and stuff, or is it just a GMP boost?

[QUOTE=Gabriel_Gore;48627883]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.

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

What's with your MGS1 case? I thought they only came in the square white ones?
I managed to successfully extract a heavy infantry soldier with A++ combat skill but I can't find him in staff management. Not sure what's going on.

Yeah, I'm not building a BCU on my FOB because it's ridiculously easy to tranq everybody and steal fucking everything within five minutes. I don't mind losing staff since I have too many anyway, but that amount of resources is another matter.
In fact, I don't even have enough fultons for everything I try to steal.
