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

[QUOTE=RichyZ;53171443]save all the bells and whistles for base defenses because if you die and dont have a revive pill during one, your base goes back to square one no survivors (save for story ones) and no buildings[/QUOTE] Holy shit. Now I'm actually fucking scared to start the first one. Am I doing something wrong or are farms seriously way too slow and ineffective? My people are constantly starving and I can't do shit because I don't have any food either because hunger drops really fast. Also, where do I find wheat or onions?

When you have all farms placed, food is easy, particularly with the animals too, and the large farm you get from a later point.

you can make base defence easy by taking fire arrows to deal with the trash and mortars to kill the mortars that spawn

My main issue with base defence is that they don't give you enough building space. My base is pretty much full, and the only way for me to build proper defences is to get rid of some of the other stuff I built and that sucks. Most of the time I just went Rambo, and ran circles around my base taking out all the enemies myself.

Base size limit sucks. Just hit it myself and it makes me angry.

you can swap fence for wooden barbed wire fence to save .3 on every placement

[QUOTE=krakadict;53172161]you can swap fence for barbed wire fence to save .3 on every placement[/QUOTE] Barbed wire fence actually takes up more space than the regular fence. I found that out the hard way. After I unlocked the barbed wire fence, I deleted my normal fence surrounding my base so I could replace it. About halfway through, I got a message saying there's not enough space. Had to delete that, and rebuild the normal fence. Wasted about 500 iron.

I really wish there was a trial or demo of this, I've been wanting a coop game for a while and hero defense style coop is extremely my thing.

People actually play the base defenses? I just stuck Reeve and the rest of my exploration team into base duty and I'm easily at 6000 defense on every side, with the first dig being 100-4000 depending on the side. Turrets bump up the rating quite a bit too, and they only take one square.

If you're afk when the attack happens, and your defense is high enough, does your base take damage? Will the things I built get destroyed?

yes, things take damage/get destroyed. [editline]3rd March 2018[/editline] btw don't play coop while a base dig is happening. it'll pump up the enemy numbers for some reason and will absolutely crush your defense team and base. best to just quit the game or sit in the coop lobby by yourself while it happens. [editline]3rd March 2018[/editline] also, there was a patch on consoles that hasn't hit pc yet, which fixes the perks on legendary gear so you actually have to unlock them now.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;53173438]also, there was a patch on consoles that hasn't hit pc yet, which fixes the perks on legendary gear so you actually have to unlock them now.[/QUOTE] Did that glitch only affect certain people? I always had to unlock the perks.

[QUOTE=RichyZ;53173527]that patch hit pc already i think?[/QUOTE] nope [QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;53173532]Did that glitch only affect certain people? I always had to unlock the perks.[/QUOTE] nope the most obvious way to find out was getting a piece of gear with a chance to not use arrows/ammo/throwables/food.

man, some of these cardboard boxes with the unlocks are brutal. here's a thread with a bunch that people have been finding in the survive discord (not fp) [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/metalgearsurvive/comments/80tgku/an_organized_collectable_hunt/?sort=new[/url]

Anyone else have an issue where their game gets hung up on the loading screen and they have to force close it and restart?

Can anyone tell me where I can find the Snake Eater tape? I need that shit

[QUOTE=Ray551;53176245]Can anyone tell me where I can find the Snake Eater tape? I need that shit[/QUOTE] Near Transporter 2 in Africa. Follow the road west instead of East towards the other transporters.

Thanks There are some pretty nice tracks in the game, I love it How exactly do the [sp]post-story bosses[/sp] work? I encountered one once, but I wasn't prepared and I was way underleveled so I ran away. Then it despawned. Haven't seen one ever since and that was like 2 real time days ago. Are they random? Also, is there a way to deconstruct a line of fences all together at once, or do I have to manually select and delete every single piece?

So is 30 the maximum amount of people you can have? I rescued a few more people, but I'm still at 30.

[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;53176630]So is 30 the maximum amount of people you can have? I rescued a few more people, but I'm still at 30.[/QUOTE] 30 is the max, if you get more than 30 it deletes the oldest person you have.

[QUOTE=RichyZ;53176529]Post game bosses respawn after a few days if you ran away, once theyre dead theyre dead though[/QUOTE] Thats really lame then since the epic boxes they dropped for me only had legendary items in them.

I'm sure once the big march update hits they'll respawn more. Right now epic stuff is pretty much pointless since you can't make the advanced workshops yet. [editline]4th March 2018[/editline] saw this on the reddit page :v: [img]https://i.redd.it/66x4mdqj1oj01.jpg[/img]

Are there some radio commands missing? I could've sworn I heard people saying stuff like "shit" and "dammit" in the beta.

enough grenades to destroy every square inch of at least one portal-forsaken wasteland

So if I just let my guys take care of base defense, do I get an S rank as long as I got more than enough defense points to deal with everything? And how the fuck do you get shared ressources into the plus? I've got a shitton of farms, loads of rain water and medicine and only 15 people to take care of, yet they're always out of water, everyone is sick and stuff like that. What am I doing wrong?
