Of course, you would know how Venom Snake would go about things!
I know what you mean! I ended up doing something like that in Peace Walker on my second save. Worked out well! I honestly could not leave the menus in Peace Walker's Mother Base management. It was so addictive! Being able to spar and train with fellow Diamond Dogs soldiers is such a dream come true. Like, it gives for endless replayability. Hope your playthroughs turn out well! It's going to be interesting, no doubt. I don't think many of us will be posting in the OT when the game arrives, so our responses are probably going to be a bit delayed! You plan on getting all of the special characters (like Quiet, DD) on your first run?
Hell yeah! I just thought "Oh, hey, stuff in the distance. Afghanistan is a big place, I guess." And then, the second time I watched the footage "HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOAHOAAAH!" This game is MASSIVE! I have to know how in-depth the customization is. Could literally make the game endlessly replayable!

I just rewatched the GDC Motherbase demo and damn! My hype levels are rising again. I was down on the base invasion thing earlier, but I'm coming around. If done right, it could be amazing. A base building metagame like PW, within the large expanse of an open world game - and all real time! I'm not sure if you guys are aware, but this game is gonna be HUUUUGE!!!
Seriously. I got the chills just thinking how massive your base could get.
The only thing I'm worried about is personnel count. In PW it was 350 (including waiting room). Once you got close to capacity, you'd hear Miller over the radio struggle to move around (hey, quit pushing!) along with a big crowd in the background. The problem with that was that Mother Base was fuckin' huge. 350 people could EASILY fit on ONE strut! I understand that, for management purposes (and because it was the first time an MGS game had done this), it was limited... but I hope that cap is raised for MGSV considering we'll be able to physically walk around the base.
Oh and I hope we get to have another cute little patrol boat watching the perimeter of Mother Base again like we did in PW. :3

I see and I agree! It's so nice to see some of PW's features carry over to TPP. For my 1st playthrough, I'll make sure I'll spar to keep my small squad strong.
It seems that you'll need to spar with a massive army
I hope yours turn out well too, and you enjoy it immensely! You're right. I'll just save the thread for later reading once I complete the game - it'll be a lot of catching up with the threads.
On my first run, I plan on only getting the characters I feel comfortable with, such as DD or any other soldier-types. I'll avoid Quiet, though, especially when it comes to buddies. She's too distracting for my tastes and I hope we can get a buddy who is a strong soldier and who acknowledges our orders in a soldier-like manner.
But Quiet's a definite yes for my 2nd run in terms of story and gameplay.

You mean the patrol boat that didn't fish Paz out of the water because of reasons?

Yeah, that one. The one that was upside down & on fire when Morpho was headed back to Mother Base at the end of GZ. Such a sad... sad moment.

1. I can imagine so, though after the nightmare of that big boss emblem i hope its not a requirement for the platinum (totally jinxed it, shit.)
2. Im planning a media blackout at least a month prior like i did with MGS4, the whole ending reveal was ruined for me last time so i refuse to see anything this time even by accident! In terms of actually playing though its a 100% midnight launch with stacks of energy drinks and shitty food to keep me going till the end. Its how ive played it from MGS2 and im a stickler for tradition haha.
Also probably on Normal Difficulty. Hard will be for subsequent playthroughs, im all about dat story for now.
3. Not sure about which im guessing will make a return but id love to see Groznyj Grad and Blood Bath!
I just realized you're not following me on twitter
I don't know what you're talking about
Nice save...
For a lot of it, you're going to think you're playing MGS.

I am totally saving these responses/bookmarking this page for future reference, guys! That way, we can look back and see if what you WANTED to do lined up with what you actually did. I think that'd be fun.

Has KojiPro confirmed that the GZ data transfer will work the same on consoles as it does for PC? I only see info on their website for the PC version.

1. Yes.
2. Normal/Hard, No reflex, Trying no kill, Media blackout, fulton everyone and replace weak when there is max dawgs on base.
3. Would be nice Grozny Grad, Shadow Moses. But not gonna happen. Maybe big shell, tanker or Granin gorky lab. Something from Peace Walker would be nice too.

1. I think more like Peace Walker. Maybe I get something different now than always a butterfly.
2. Fulton every dog and let them do the work.
3. I want new maps.

I marked the names I like the most and my question is why did you guys not talked about this anymore in this thread? Some of these are much much better than "Outer GAF". In my opinion.

1. I think so, I suck at it, but I would like to see it return
2. Same as always, tranq gun everything unless I get swarmed. Challenge playthroughs are after I've beaten the story once.
3. None. Shadow Moses DLC.
I like these 3, but there needs to be more Ocelot names.
Forgot about these. Definitely need to stick with the same letter dual name thing.

"Guerilla Gaffers" is my favorite.
An name that doesn't include something GAF related is unacceptable.

1. maybe?
2. stealth simulation, hard difficulty, no reflex, no marking, no enemy direction indicator, no tranq (ive found great pleasure in sneaking around during an alert phase, and some of my most memorable sneaking came during alert phases), no fulton (i plan on using the fulton during replays), no hud (i know all the controls), considering not using the knock/lure either, basically i want to experience the game how i first saw it in the redband trailer, just raw bare bones stealth
3. never played the online before and i don't plan on playing it in tpp, i have a ps4 so fuck paying sony 50$ for internet use, even if it was a lifetime subscription i would still tell them to go eat sticky homeless ass
why?

i'd like to see the limit raised on mother base. or at least provide the option to reject low level soldiers instantly. i assume of lot of these little annoyances about peace walker have been worked out. for those that don't care for that game, it's still good they made it as a test-bed for these concepts
Goes in line with what MGO has been doing for years. Map names on MGO2 specifically as well as unit names in MGO3 (watch the gamescom base infiltration part).
I agree. I'm sure the annoyances will be ironed out for this.

What is he talking about?
He's talking about the thing Stefanie has been dressing up for-- "demon" and "Setsubun" were mentioned, so probably that festival!

1.I would like to see that return. I haven't played pw in awhile but you get an emblem for each mission on top of your letter score right?
2. I plan on playing the game without reflex and without marking. I will also start on hard if it's available from the start. But we'll see see how daunting the world is. These aren't things that I absolutely won't change my mind on but it's how I would like to play.
3. I haven't played mgo2 since it came out and forget the names of the maps. But I'm exited for mgo3 and am definitely looking forward to it.

Ok, so I made an example, therefore I chose (in my opinion) the most funny and "GAF" related name. What do you guys say?

'Guerrilla GAF' I can get behind, even if 'Outer GAF' way better than everything on that list. Gaffer though? Gaffers sounds... so... limp.

I doubt that. There seems to be no love at all for the Gaffling Giraffes.
