MGS: Ground Zeroes to Phantom Pain Save Transfer

Spent the week grabbing all trophies for GZ, but still ended up with ~84%(guessing I need to S-rank the Hard missions and actually complete the trials to reach 100%?).

Bummed only one suit and a few freebie NPC's join TPP with a transfer. Kind of at least wanted the MGS1 throwback suits(especially the arctic enemy makeover!!) as well as the ZoE2 remix theme cassette.

But hey, had a good time plowing through GZ this past week for all those trophies.
 
Calm down, I've put in 30 hours of the game without servers. It's not big deal.

Calm down? a) We pay more than anyone else. b) We're screwed out of preloading because SCEE have a brilliant strategy of starting the preload for every other country the minute it launches here. And c) It's officially released here, your early release isn't comparable. It's pretty shoddy that these things aren't working on release.

You just need to S rank every mission on normal and hard. Unlocking all the trials is all you have to do on that front.
 
So if I just run through the the missions again and grab all POW's and special soldiers will that be enough for the transfer?
It doesn't require 100%?

You don't require 100%. Just get every "unique" character and POW from each mission and you're set.

Curious about this as well. I'm currently beating déjà/jamais vu on hard for costumes. After that it's just POWs and I'm good to go?

Edit: Nevermind, answered above.
 
Why is everyone claiming that rescuing all prisoners and the 2 guards like it is a fact that you'll get them in TPP? Has anyone proven this to be true? Or did we get official confirmation that we have to rescue them?

Konami has said as much, and it's in the TPP manual. As well as their Mother Base Stats being available.
 
Does anyone know if you need to 100% Ground Zeroes in order to transfer the save/progress to Phantom Pain?


EDIT: Because it's not very clear so far... :/
 
I went back to PS4 GZ to get the prisoners. Ended up replaying Jamais Vu a dozen times just to hear the word "Snatcher" and the little music cues. Uploaded a half-assed save (missing the artillery prisoners) to PSN, but I bet the servers are gonna melt tonight, anyway.
 
So do you guys think the fob stuff will be regional only too? God lets hope not. Region restricted MP is shitty.

For lag purposes, I sure hope it is.

Destiny has proved that cross regional matchmaking is awful. No matter how fast your Internet is, you will always have latency if you are connecting to people continents away.
 
uhhh. You may have a problem. It's supposed to be an insert in the game box I think for Xbox.

Great...

KONAMI said Spain wasn't going to be affected by this but aparently it was a lie.
A friend bought another xbox one collector's edition and can't find the DLC either and that's why I asked if it was on disc.



And I still can't play TPP because GZ hasn't updted on xbox one. :(

should've bought the PS4 version...

the update for GZ is live on Xbox One, but the servers for TPP are still inactive worldwide.
 
Apparently (found on reddit), the update went live for some people on XB1 so if you haven't gotten it yet, try hard resetting your consoles. If that doesn't work I guess we'll just have to wait a bit longer.
 
Still not clear on specifically who you have to grab.

A while back I already got every POW in Ground Zeroes. I guess I'll just grab everybody in the Renegade Threat, Anti-Air, and Intel Acquisition missions.
 
Sorry to ask a few stupid questions, but here goes:

So i finished GZ on PS4, got it again due to pre-ordering TPP on PC but didn't want to have to play through it again.

I grabbed the 100% save file from earlier in this thread, booted the game, and uploaded the data.

Questions:

  • What do i actually get in TPP from doing this?
  • Will doing this have any adverse effects when playing TPP?

one general question:
  • I've noticed in GZ that the "loading" circle for the mouse pointer is viable when playing the game even though i have it set to "full screen" in the game options. Does anyone else see this? How do i stop that?
 
I didn't get Ground Zeros on PC. Think there's away for me to install a save for it anyway?

Ground Zeroes on PC has the same upload save data button on the main menu as on consoles, though I have no idea why. Will TPP pull it off Steam Cloud? That would be really weird. I bet just the save folder would be enough, but who knows.
 
What is the code in the GZ box for?

The code for registering GZ on the Konami Core website?

I have no idea what the reward is, I've logged in but it just says to check back on release day to retrieve the reward. I believe this is separate to the save transfer but I could be wrong.

Just put a completed save in the correct folder. You'll have to go a few pages back, but there are instructions and they do work. It worked for me at least. I got pretty far with the PS4 version and did not want to go back and redo everything on the PC version again.
 
Quick question and sorry if it seems like I'm asking dumb questions lol.

for the extraction in the Eye and the Finger mission.

Is it possible to only extract Glaz and Platz in one run, and then do the mission again and extract the prisoners and then kills glaz and platz?

Hm okay i'll look into it

Yes i dont think you have to extract everyone at the same time.
 
Bish is your save with all the people extracted positively? Mine is 100% but I'm not sure about all the extractions and shit.

I'm curious about this as well. I have 100% but I dont think I got everyone. Problem is there is no way for me to know WHO I need to get, if anyone.

If so could I get the save too??
