I hate myself for loading up the last checkpoint when I get spotted.

It's a thing I do in every stealth game, and it really dampens my enjoyment.

I do this too, but it doesn't bother me. What bothers me is actually being spotted, lol. What's wrong with trying to be stealth? Would you rather just restart the whole mission? Or is it just the OCD in you where you want to be 100% stealth throughout the entire mission?

Hell, I kind of want to turn reflex mode off. I feel like I might start using it as a crutch if I leave it on. Especially when it seems like your in reflex mode for an eternity, like 5 real life seconds. Then again, fuck having alarms go off and having to go guns blazing. At least not yet this early when I don't have anything unlocked.

Anyone tried to shoot Ocelot with the tranqulizer gun yet?

yep... he
just started to slur words... i dunno if he was gonna retaliate... but he was in the middle of explaining how Mother Base worked haha So it was a weird mix of him stumbling to get up and then explain more.
 
So the only way to change the language or subtitles its in the beggining of the game? Cause i hate the way its translated to my native language, Portuguese from brazil sucks big time, wish i could change that.
 
I bought the upgrade to play music on the helicopter. Where do I access these customizations?

Also how do I change the color of mother base?
 
So, from reading a few reviews I kept hearing that the story was light in this game... Is that true? I was hoping for the typical MGS craziness in terms of cutscenes and story.

It's got the same amount of story as the others, it's just stretched out over 50 hours instead of 8.
 
I'm at the first open world section where I've to save Kaz. My OCD makes me want to visit every location on the map, is there a point? I went to a barracks and got destroyed but I collected a lot of metal etc and some tapes/diamonds. Should I be visiting every location or is it okay to skip some?
 
In Afghanistan I saw a raven with 3 green dots above it. What does that mean?

You can bring animals back to your base, if it's bird you can shoot them with the tranq dart and pick it up. If it's a bigger animal you need to fulton them.

You can also deploy animal traps around the world, when you finish a mission, it'll tell you if you caught any.

PS. I still don't know the usefulness of bringing animals back to the base tho, I guess I'm still waiting for the game to tell me why we're even able to do this.

There are secondary missions. Check your iDroid. There are things you have to do in most of those points.

This limited edition strategy guide is beautiful.

you got the white or black one?

Check in-game options (display settings). Press Select, not the iDroid button.
 
I haven't started playing yet but is it recommended to play online or offline? I read some posts where apparently the iDroid is sluggish when online. And does the game give you an option or do I have to disconnect my PS4 from the internet?
 
Thx to DrBo42 for helping me advance the story a bit.
Major story spoilers:
Paz, huh. I didn't think Kojima could make something more brutal than GZ. Feel a bit sick after watching that, and that's not a feeling I get from video games.

And then after all that, I walk outside and the tape that is playing is
The Cure - Friday I'm in Love
.

Go online to get any of your GZ stuff or whatever, but yeah, there's an ingame disconnect and I've played pretty muche everything offline and have had no issues.

That side mission I suggested did the trick?
 
Can you chose where to create new MB platforms ? I just had a menu to order them... The placement is ugly as sin with long uneven bridges... So the only thing I can custom is color ?
 
spoiler for the whole "enemy adapts to you mechanic", just a brilliant mechanic
I never realised
The enemy were wearing gas masks cause I kept using smoke grenades
,I really love this game.

Its brilliant, it balances the game perfectly.

I dread the day they wear helmets. No more tranq headshots :(
 
Fuck, really? There isn't a way to move the save file to a new location and start a new game?

Cross posting from other thread in hopes you see this.

I found files
  • TPP_GAME_DATA
  • TPP_CONFIG_DATA
  • PERSONAL_DATA
in C:\Games\Steam\userdata\<random_numbers>\311340\remote and I think TPP_GAME_DATA is file that contains save data. You could try experimenting with it and e.g. remove it from folder and see if game progress is lost.

Mine got e-mailed to me by gamestop, weirdly enough. it's not on the box like the day one edition.

huh... so i guess i have to wait for amazon to send me something?

thanks for hte heads up.
 
you gotta be kidding.... o_O

thats awful.

i opened mine and i don't know where all the extra digital content is at.

I've got the same issue and I purchased from Amazon. Is there some sort of procedure for getting that stuff at this point?

I got the codes for both GZ and TPP. Wouldn't worry yourself since neither of them work anyway. Don't even know who to speak to about that. Guessing Konami, but let's be real here, what use would that be?
