It's along the shore of the first village, the very last house before the boat.

christ it takes long for the batteries to recharge on your bionic arm things

Just a thought, if I want to grab that blueprint in the first Africa mission but dont want to slog through the whole mission again, can I grab it and just call in Pequod to take me home? Also Quiet for super OP, running around in freeroam just crossing outposts off the map is hilarious.

quiet spoilers [sp]That scene where her and big boss are playing in the rain is so good. It's nice to see them be happy and have fun for a moment.[/sp]

Probably the same with all blueprints.

I didn't think much on it at the time but looking back it's a pretty great hint. My favorite from a series standpoint though is the fact you can equip the Boss's bandana. BB would never put it back on as he's the one to cast it away and it always bothered me that "oh yeah it was fished out of the ocean put it back on Big Boss :)"[/sp]

Has anyone noticed that the ESRB rating says TPP has strong language? I've sunk 100 hours into it and haven't heard any at all

I can't think of any others atm, though.

I can't express how disappointed I am in the fact that the only non-lethal assault rifle option only introduces a suppressor on its final upgrade tier, tier 5, and that said suppressor can't be changed for another, and only has a durability of 1. I wish non-lethal options in this game weren't always garbage. :/

[QUOTE=Sift;48644565]I feel people are kind of over-reacting to the ending being butts. [sp]I agree that them not closing the stolen gear and eli thing in game is ass but it's not like it ruined literally everything else in the game- that and I still had a lot of fun despite frustrations getting there. The bad ending didn't suddenly make stuff like chapter 43 not as intense or anything. I feel the shit ending and cut content that was out of the devs hands is making dudes waaaaaaaaaaaaaay harsher on it then what's really fair and is leading to a lot of inane nitpicking to try to justify further anger.[/sp][/QUOTE] I'm just confused as to how the game was in development for 5 years and was still unfinished on release. Like, did Kojima just take an extended vacation in the middle of development? What the hell happened!?

SLIGHT SPOILERS FOR AROUND MISSION 25 [URL="http://puu.sh/k5wRQ/9297ae0e89.jpg"]I am an evil bastard[/URL]

I think the strong language is from the enemy guards as well...

Quick question, is there anything you can miss by alternating between playing main ops and side ops? Something in the line of certain side ops becoming permanently unavailable if you reach some event X in the story. I don't want to miss stuff

[QUOTE=Magikoopa24;48646476]The R&D stuff is kinda weird- I have the stealth camo.pp already, despite the guide telling me it's given to you near the lategame (still don't wanna progress into mission 23).[/QUOTE] You can only use camo.pp so much, the actual stealth camo that recharges itself does unlock near endgame.

[QUOTE=Tetsmega;48636528]I miss the Camo index from 3 and I don't really see a point in any other camo besides sneaking suit.[/QUOTE] There isn't, the sneaking suit is the general best and any supposed downsides are wholly negated by being prone. Prone is the answer, always. I regularly prone up to within 10m of people during the day with it, at night I may as well have stealth camo on. There's no need for other suits since they don't have the noise reduction. I'm actually disappointed with how powerful the sneaking suit is, I've never had the need to wear anything else and I'm currently sitting on a nice batch of Foxhound'ed missions. I think the only reason there's even discussion about other camo is due to everyone staying crouched and not enough people realizing how stupidly good prone is. When you prone, all you need is the general best and that's what the sneaking suit is. I mean even then I still spend more time crouched than prone and have never had issues with the suit during the day (when it's supposedly not as good).

[QUOTE=RichyZ;48646548]games take a long time to develop and im sure 5 has had multiple story and gameplay iterations for all we know the game could have played completely differently 4 years ago[/QUOTE] Really, I'm only angry about the plot in itself. Pretty much everyone just wanted the final piece of the story, the actual link between Big Boss and Solid Snake's story. We wanted to see Big Boss do war crime shit. But Kojima just kind of danced around it and gave us a random plot. [editline]9th September 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=DMGaina;48645701]It triggers after the mission. This reminds me, I once had a really bad fuckup. I saved the [sp]child soldiers in Africa[/sp] and a guy on MB greeted me with "Those animals owe you their lifes! Thanks Boss"[/QUOTE] Jack "Snigger at the Nigger" The Ripper would be proud.

Any tips for MG:S Extreme?

So I ordered a key through ••••••••••••••.com on Saturday, 4 days ago, and still haven't received anything. I ordered a refund through paypal 2 days ago and literally heard no word from them whatsoever. I'd order it from somewhere else but I'm too scared to, in case they just refuse to refund :( Very upsetting. No point to this post, I just wanted to tell the internet about my plight (and I guess warn people to stay the fuck away from ••••••••••••••) :( Wow, they're so shitty even facepunch blocks mention of them. Wish I'd investigated before I made an order.

[QUOTE=Zeos;48646638]Any tips for MG:S Extreme?[/QUOTE] Which one in particular? I had problems with the mansion one till I realized you could just drive right past the skulls in an APC
