Metal Gear Megathread V - Kojima's been wanting out since MGS2 - Games

[QUOTE=latin_geek;53169032]I actually really liked the outer ops and the sitrep aspect to them. Watching the silly things my troopers did only helped with bonding with them. In fact, that and the [B]little quotes[/B] they have all made them more important to me than any Diamond Dog or Base Camp Survivor. I really wish Base Camp was more lively, but the budget probably didn't allow for 'unnecessary' conversations, animations and voice-lines. I think there's some genuinely interesting stuff that could be done seeing as the Captain isn't an innate super-soldier, or a father to his men, and he's probably just playing everything by ear and trying to emulate Big Boss after being forced to command an outpost. Even then, the atmosphere at the camp is much more relaxed- people wear what they want or what's useful for their job, they take a minute to go out and stretch or walk about, things like that.[/QUOTE] "Check out this tattoo. Each one of these stars stands for a battlefield I've slogged through... they're actually just stickers, but still..." Peace Walker is the best MGS.

The noise for dinking dirty water really makes me not want to drink it :v: I wish games had small details like that. On a side note. I hate how much asymmetrical clothing/armor irks me. I wanted to get rid of the starting armor because of the bare arm/covered arm so I made one of those bonus tops the game gives you and now I have one glove

So, how do you [sp]return to Afghanistan after you get ported to Africa[/sp]? Do I have to keep playing the story missions until I get the option to do it?

[QUOTE=Ray551;53169318]So, how do you [sp]return to Afghanistan after you get ported to Africa[/sp]? Do I have to keep playing the story missions until I get the option to do it?[/QUOTE] Yes

[QUOTE=Craigewan;53169330]Yes[/QUOTE] Thanks Some guy on the internet said you could do it after finishing the first mission, so I was a little confused

Prepare for the worst

[QUOTE=Ray551;53169337]Thanks Some guy on the internet said you could do it after finishing the first mission, so I was a little confused[/QUOTE] Never trust some guy on the internet. [sp]Except for me[/sp] Do a few plot missions and it will be really obvious when you're allowed back to Afghanistan.

Everytime I pick up a washed up survivor for the first time my game crashes :V And when I go to pick them up for the second time after restarting it doesn't :U

[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;53169345]Prepare for the worst[/QUOTE] If you were refering to [sp]the 15 minute Sahelanthropus defense[/sp] then I totally didn't prepare enough. Got fucked up pretty much immidiately cause I had no healing items and I wasn't expecting it to be that long. But holy fuck I just got Vampire Killer and Wicked Child from the Castlevania soundtrack, that's fucking amazing

Do you guys have a discord or some sort of chat going on? I would really like to get some tipps from some experienced players.

Oh wow I just killed [sp]Seth[/sp] in literally 10 seconds. Gotta love boomsticks.

[QUOTE=Ray551;53169700]Oh wow I just killed [sp]Seth[/sp] in literally 10 seconds. Gotta love boomsticks.[/QUOTE] I actually laughed out loud at how anti climatic that fight was.

So, another question: [sp]I was just told I got 11 days to prepare my base and kill the Lord of Dust and everything. Is that an actual ingame day time limit or is it just plot bs?[/sp]

[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;53169730]I actually laughed out loud at how anti climatic that fight was.[/QUOTE] seriously? I guess I didn't prep enough.. That's what I was referring to..

[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;53169816]seriously? I guess I didn't prep enough.. That's what I was referring to..[/QUOTE] First time round I got rekt, so I feel your pain, second time I crafted a bunch of blue armour, loaded up on shotgun shells, and finished it in five seconds.

I used a revolver and grenades for a still challenging fight...

i had no ammo ingredients so i just cheesed him with grenades and then poked him once with a spear

I heard if you start a game on another character slot all your items transfer over so like a ng+ is that true?

[QUOTE=Mad.Hatter;53170207]I heard if you start a game on another character slot all your items transfer over so like a ng+ is that true?[/QUOTE] I haven't bought another character slot but I have heard that they do indeed share inventory etc.

So I've been really enjoying this game and trying to get in on the hard mode Co-op stuff, but I can barely ever seem to find a match. Am I missing something with the regional settings or does no one play in the NA region?

Is anyone else randomly getting a huge influx of distress call missions? For some reason some of my staff is at the FOB in Africa now, and everytime I go back to base, I get a new rescue mission.

For me, when I hit [sp]Post Game[/sp], I was drowned in 'Washed-up Container' missions.

Great. I now have 24 people at my base and only 22 beds. I can't build anymore either because of the bullshit building limits.

I got the grenade arrow recipe recently, and they're great for spawn killing big groups of zombies. I usually just save them for base defence.

Yeah, I just finished all of my base defence missions and I don't plan on replaying them anytime soon. That last one almost wiped me out.
