I didn't fire anyone. Either Miller fired them, or they left out of shame, but I have an army of B+ rank soldiers ... I think.
I might go around Mother Base and analyse soldiers to see their ranks. If they don't have at least a B I'll fire them.

I'd imagine with C4 equipped, you hold whatever button you use to aim and then press whatever weapon you use to climb or use things (your Fulton button)

This is how I feel now that there's no story to carry me along. I'll do a few side-ops here and there but there's no reason to play 2-4 hour sessions anymore.
I dismissed about 30 people before lol, all scrubs. But that's when I started to play and I was just taking everybody. Once you get the scanner to see people's stats you start to pick people more wisely.
you should check em out for their "specialties". one is straight up getting other soldiers sick. gotta get rid of those
only weird people
i come to mgs for crazy kojima shit. he expresses that best through cutscenes and boss fights.

R&D plays a HUGE role. Focus on that first.
Yeah my bad, a few were openly talking about it earlier on and I didn't think to tag it. Sorry

I don't know how useful it will be, but I got the actual Base Development strut built first. They procure materials which I figure will help speed along development of other struts, requiring 1000+ of a given material just for the first add-on.

Playing the first mission, Episode 1, trying to rescue Kaz, and I got discovered. But I didn't see any UI that made them switch into "alert phase" or some equivalent. And they never seemed to go back to normal afterwards the way they did in Ground Zeroes...is this not the case?
Tempted to just forget all the stealth and murder everyone.

How do you check?
Yep.
Or make another account in the PS4 (i don't know what can you do in other platforms)...
Yeah, probably want to offset them with some Diplomats.
Or put all of them in your security team and hope an invading player takes them.

Those are the ones to fire for sure, B or above affinities be damned.
For those who don't know: other members also have a Diplomat skill to keep in-base fighting DOWN.
Kiefer sometimes sounds bored as fuck, lol.
I mean, I like it. I'm obviously having fun, I'm just not sure the experience holds a candle to the tightly crafted previous games in the series.

question for Extract Wandering Mother Base soldier side op:
how?? I used up all my tranq ammo and it didn't seem to do anything, I can't punch him because he punches quicker and knocks me down and diving at him doesnt seem to do anything. I even shot at him in rage and that did nothing either. Did the mission bug out or am I missing something

Don't get rid of low rank guys in case they have a specialty you need.
Sneak up on them and get headshots.

They should take a page out of Fallout Shelter and get training rooms to up their rank.

You can crawl while in the box?! But, whyyy?

Use your tranquilizer gun in first-person shooting mode.
Use prone. It adds much more to your hidden factor than crouch walking.
Check your corners by manipulating the camera.
Use night vision at night.
If you're gonna go for an up-close take down or you want to hold them up, you need to crouch walk and go slowly. Crouch walking and going maximum speed will make them hear you.

So much hassle, just alternate saves between a couple of flash drives. It's been working fine for me.
I just did that and it was a pain in the ass. I got lucky and dodged his melee and was able to get off a couple punches but it probably took me 20 minutes to finish that.

Are you supposed to beat Missions relatively quickly? I just got to Mission 5 and have not played for that long.
Are they off on Combat Deployment?

I've warmed up to him with the tapes. He has a consistent tone of lamentation.
It matches his constant look of silent apathy.
You have a little time to knock them down with CQC (R2 on PS4) if you're playing with reflex mode. Also, you need to get closer to them with the crouch walking method.
Is always better to put to sleep them before get closer, so you also prevent to get caught by other surrounding soldiers.

Are you doing side ops, listening to tapes, or built up your MB? You can definitely go fast if you just want to beat it plain and simple.
I have played for 7 hours and just beat Mission 5.

Concerning the opening scenes...
So confused lol.
What was going on with the avatar choices? Am I Big Boss or what?
No.

I think that's just for MGO. You can change it at any time in your iDroid > Mother Base > Customize > Avatar

I don't know if this is what you're referring to, but some members are on Contract. They cannot be fired or reassigned. Most can be manually checked off Contract status.
It should show a Lock, though, not a crossed box.
You will not miss her, it's an obvious mission, so be wise and everything it's gonna be ok.
Cool. Yeah, I'm gonna sleep on it.

Lol, they could have at least said that. Unless I missed it somewhere. I probably did...
Metal Gear has always been kind of strange that way. I remember when MGS4 came out being kind of in awe of the crazy gun porn Kojima made... and then I proceeded to use about 2 or 3 guns throughout... tranq gun like 90% of the time. Same thing happened with Peace Walker, and I'm guessing here too.
Is it 'Extract the highly skilled soldier' side op?
