I'm on 43% completion and spent over 50 hours. Not finished the main story yet but thats probably because of doing so many side ops

It can eat up a shit ton of time if you let it.
yeah on the mission select part theres an option to see cutscenes.

I'll be glad when this open world trend dies off. Big for the sake of being big does not make a game more enjoyable
I agree with this. The game is amazing when you're infiltrating big bases. The parts where you travel in between these bases in a large empty world....I see no point other than wasting time.

Found it, it was
Kikongo and English!
The only time where the open world has really been useful for me is if I have D-horse and just go from one side op to the next. Most of the time, I just helicopter out and into a new area.
On the other hand, the mother base management has really grown on me. I actually enjoy allocating staff around and getting the right skills to open up new projects.

He's in the R&D platform it's on the lower deck, you can't visit yet though until the game prompts you to.
There are some nice things. The ridiculously huge mission area when doing the Honeybee mission was great, making your way up to the main base and I felt compelled to extract as many B-rank fools on the way up as I could. Failed chasing the Muhajadeen duder too because of it, oh well.
When I first did that Honeybee mission I was legit shocked at how nice those ruins were.
Ah, cheers -- I'm just getting a little paranoid that I'm going to miss stuff if I'm not crazy thorough.
I'm going with a yes for whether or not they explain it seeing as said thing has been mentioned in the plot.
And my easy method was to hit him full speed with a horse after like 5 tranqs didn't work. Stun, fulton, moving on :3

Holy shit I just discovered that you can slide on the sand with the box.
The real game begins now.
Edit: I managed to record this:

Quick questions:
1. Has anyone noticed a real difference between the camo? I have the GZ sneaking suit, is that by far superior to the in game camos or is there a realistic camo index?
2. How do I do the running punch?
3. Will I find side ops in free roam or are they tied to story progression?

See, I was thinking the same thing,
just a projection of his subconscious. It's just when he said I've been waiting here for nine years to protect you I figured maybe this was hist first time in action. I suppose it couldn't have been Solid though since he would have been a younger man at that time. But Kojima and all.

Journey can suck it. I love sliding in the mother base and being thanked for it!

Dude I posted a few pages back you dont need to call the chopper to finish missions lol
1. Yes, camos make a difference. They made a difference back in MGS3, no reason why they wouldn't now. Sneaking suit has no camo but you make no sound. It works in the nighttime notably. The camo index is realistic though, yes. Else we'd all just spam the sneaking suit or spam the cheapest suit.
2. Sprint and then hold the action button, you'll slug them and they'll instantly go down compared to the normal beatdown animation.
3. I'm not too sure, I'm assuming story though and from completing other ones, as those are the only ways I've gotten them so far.
I know, what I mean is that the mission ended out of the blue as I was in the middle of the desert
that never happened before

It's not a great open-world.
It's however, an amazing mission-based sandbox.
Free roam always felt like just a playground to toy with your weapons without worrying about ranks, but it's the silo-ed mission experience that is the true MGSV.
MGSV is more like Hitman Blood Money than any other open world game out there, even FC.

Any tips for mission 5?

After the prologue I was sent on the first mission and I am completely overwhelmed. It's almost giving me a panic attack.
Play for 4 hours yesterday and really doubt about the open worldness aspect of the game. Is the game is going to be like this through out? Select mission and jump back and forth between motherbase. While each mission, you can roam around in a stricted wide area (which 70% of them is the empty land)? How is this "open world"?
1. It tells you what camp to wear in what conditions so I think there's an index.
2. Press L3 to sprint and whilst sprinting press R2 to punch the enemy.
3. You can find side ops but mainly there given to you when you've completed the lost of side ops available. You have to go back to the ACC for them to be given to you.

I agree with everyone.. Calling it open world isn't really fair. Like the poster above said it's more of a sandbox to complete mission and encounters however the game system will allow.
Ahhh ok makes more sense

Order a supply drop from the Idroid, it gives you ammo, suppressors and fultons. The bear is defo worth it though

You unlock free roam mode later.
MGSV is open world, but open world is probably the worst marketing tagline this game was attached with.

Someone mentioned some kind of hat that makes the player invisible... what's the deal with that?
How do you check their stats? I tried L1 all it gives me is their background but not important stats. Maybe I can just google it lol
While I agree the open world is full of big empty spaces, the feeling you get when your scoping out a massive compound is just overwhelming.

I mostly just ran away. I think I killed a few with the weapon but it works like mission 1

Man... I've only just scratched the surface and reached Mother Base, but I'm already in love with this. Plays like a dream on my PC and looks incredible. The controls are just so damn good, too.
Going to take some getting used to the complete lack of Kojima's traditional heavy handed exposition (it's like he went too far in the opposite direction with this), but I'm loving the gameplay. Wish I had more time in the day to play it!

The chicken hat. It's awarded if you fail a mission many times over.
Ya, it's great.
