Yeah...this is the scene that had me the most confused. It really felt out of place, especially because I had been using her almost constantly. Seems like something that should've happened much earlier in her storyline.

This game just seems so perfectly made for DLC. I would gladly pay like 20 dollars for an entire
and have it be like a tv show. It doesn't even have to be Kojima writing the entire thing just have him take the role of the showrunner. But sigh...Konami gon Konami.

When are the two cutscenes for
and
suppose to happen? I'm on Misson 32ish and I haven't gotten those two yet.
Quiet interrogation
Quiet dancing in the rain
Or maybe they didn't want to grind the FUCKING FUEL for the last platforms.
The
Rain
Interrogation
side ops
interrogation
eliminate the wandering puppets side op
When I have to do the side ops to eliminate heavy armor units, I just rocket launcher them with Quiet distracting them
She's probably going off into the desert to kill herself. It's the only way she can keep it from spreading.

Good old CQC....or rockets
Man, chapter 2 of the game with all the repeated missions is just lazy. And the fact that you're even getting all the story cutscenes twice just adds to the ridiculousness.
They should have left these missions out and just allowed players to replay any old mission with modifiers.

Found my first a++ soldier, but died before extracting, now hes a c rank. noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I don't get this. She's my buddy and I have to use some clunky-ass system to get her to shoot anything. Not to mention her good rifles take a while to unlock.

Finished chapter 1.
Incredible all over. Yes, some parts felt padded, but then again, it's open world, but the payoff was SWEET! Last two episodes were utterly amazing. Kojima knows his writing, even if it's over the top as it always has been.
Felt like a proper end, Chapter 1. Lets see what Chapter 2 offers.

here is my pattern for the key dispatch missions
first S rank mission: beat it first try
Second: two tries
Third: three tries
Fourth: Just started third attempt, I wonder if I will make it to 4.
This is unbelievably stupid.

Once you unlock her "cover me" command, outposts will fall without you having to do anything but balloon duty.
I generally look at Mission 45 as the actual conclusion of the overall narrative of the game. Mission 46 is story content, yes, but the way it's presented is less like an ending and more like an addendum of the events of the game.

Yeah, she had no lungs. Miller mentioned they were burnt to a crisp along with some of her other organs back in the hospital sequence of the game. The parasites were introduced inside her body to supplement her non-functioning organs. This is also why she uses photosynthesis and drinks/breaths through her skin.

Play it for yourself. I'm loving it. It's disjointed because of the whole open world structure, but it still has the usual Kojima-isms, though spread apart. And the voice-acting is pretty good too, esp that of Miller.
Fuel definitely was the holdup for me too. Thankfully some of the combat deployments had decent fuel rewards. Biological matter on the other hand...I was pushing 150k+ in that while everything else was like 1/4 of that, lol.
I also hope they up the GMP limit because I have so many unclaimed rewards that I'm sitting on after maxing out most of my development and research upgrades.
That's it. When I get home I'll do more missions until I unlock my FOB and can start blowing my money on that.
That's what I've read.
I guess I'm frustrated it takes so long of having to guide her shots before she become autonomous.

Like I mentioned before. They gave her the English strain of the parasites. So, while they're basically keeping her alive, it's the reason she can't speak English. When she spoke English in order to communicate with Pequod to save Snake, she triggered the parasites to become infectious and kill her and anyone around her.

Chapter 1 is awesome, chapter 2 feels like padding. All the good stuff in chapter 2 should have been in chapter 1 that would have been way better.

Honestly Chapter 2 should've been called an epilogue, or it should've been Chapter 3 and Chapter 1 should've had a Chapter for Afghanistan and a Chapter for Africa.
It's best to think of Chapter 1 as everything in Return of The King up to the point where the destroy the ring, and Chapter 2 is everything after that.

I used several air bombardments and 1-2 sniper shots. Went well. The use of bombardments restricted the grade to A though.

How do I trigger my daily reward? I didn't get one today.
Didn't think of air bombardments - does she ever dodge those like the supply drops?

I want to upgrade Mother Base, which takes like two hours for a single platform. So I upgrade and want to do another one but don't have enough fuel. Ahhhh but I do, it just isn't processed yet. But processing takes forever and a day. To speed up this process, I need to upgrade Mother Base. But I can't upgrade Mother Base without more fuel. Which takes forever to be processed because...
Fuck, I hate Mother Base. Mobile game timer bullshit.

Mission 42
is bullshit. I seem to be severely underequipped to just kill the Skulls with firepower. D-Walker's gatling gun doesn't have enough ammo to do the job, and all my other weapons don't seem to affect the Skulls at all. The fact that their skin regenerates makes it just more ludicrous. I used one tank and two D-Walker drops, and still had three Skulls left, before one of them finally one-shotted me. Is there a trick, or do I really need top equipment?

I thought that at first, but she's worth leveling. Just set her to Scout instead of Attack and she'll mark whole outposts for you. Once you get her bond to 20 you can get the tranq rifle (which doesnt take long).
Then she's totally OP. I love DD, but Quiet is totally fucking OP.
Wasn't that JUST patched?
it was cool when I first got over the beginning hump and I was building stuff, but once you build platforms, there's nothing to do with it. You can't add or customize each platform, and there's nothing to do when you get back to motherbase except talk to certain NPCs once their flags are up.
It's sad. There's really not much to do.
Sometimes she runs away before the bombs arrive, but she never dodges them per se. When she runs away, you can just shoot at her to make her stop. You don't even have to hit her.

Thats a really really easy mission when you know the trick.
Use a rocket launcher and climb the ladder onto the roof of the building near you. Shoot the skulls from the roof. Dodge their rock spikes occasionally. Resupply with supply drops when you run out.
That is literally it. You can S rank it that way even.
I thought so but I just loaded it up and the message didn't have an update saying that so I wasn't sure. Played for a bit while the update downloaded and then when I connected to the server after re-opening, it didn't have new patch notes.

Well, I'm assuming she dies. Once she speaks English, on top of being contagious, she would become symptomatic like the Diamond Dogs soldiers on the quarantine strut. I remember someone mentioning it's certain death once you become symptomatic. Though the main reason for her leaving is she's contagious now.
Well that was certainly something. Just finished it and there were certain things I liked and some I disliked.
For one I didn't really like having to replay the prologue again for the last mission but I was actually fine with the fact that you weren't really big boss. Kojima did say he wanted snake to be an extension of the player and in this case they did it literally. I still have 45 to do whenever I'm done using Quiet so I hope that mission is a good final mission. Actually I just now remembered that they seem to have completely dropped the eli story. Seemed like it was going somewhere then never got brought back up. That was kind of a shame but oh well.
