I feel kind of stressed having to complete Peace Walker and Ground Zeroes first. I'm currently doing Peace Walker HD on PS3, would anyone be up for co-oping some missions in this one while we wait for The Phantom Pain?

Sure, add me.

I'll send you a PM.

I have high level gear so we can quickly breeze through the vehicle missions.

Going to have to cut back on my posting.
Need to keep that perfect 1.00 posts per day going.

OuterGaf, where does one obtain the new MGS5 Vocal soundtrack (the one with the Donna Burke covers of the MGS songs)? Is it Japan and physical only, or is there a way to aquire this in the Western hemisphere also?

Gonna repost a couple of things for a new page. (sorry)

A lot of you have added me on the PS4, but i will only be playing on it for MGO. My main copy will be the PC version. Unfortunately i only have a couple of you on my friends list, so could as many of you brothers add me, so i can help to protect your bases.

You can find me using the steam group or the spreadsheet.

If any of you want to watch an excellent documentary about Afghanistan from the 50s up to the present day, check out Adam Curtis's Bitter lake.

So you need to spend like around $20 to build your second FOB base I guess?

i totally got the game on PC guys :)
Phew. :) <3
The PES microtransactions according to a post in the Microtransactions page was something around 100 coins/week. If we assume TPP's drop rate will be similar per week it'll take 15 weeks for one FOB, 45 for 3. Almost a year to get them all.

Pay $60 or wait a year. (&#12494;&#3232;&#30410;&#3232;)&#12494;

What's scary is that I might actually talk myself into paying for the coins since I got the game free with my video card. As of this moment, however, I have absolutely no interest in it. But there's always that little voice in the back of my head that says "come on... The waters fine..."

From what someone said in the OT, having multiple FOBs directly ties into a gameplay mechanic in the game. Nothing really major / critical, but still scummy to tie FOBs into a gameplay mechanic aside from the 1v1 multiplayer and then charge real life money in order to build extra bases feels ... scummy to me.

Are those... really peace walker spoilers? Cause I beat that game and I had no idea about that particular thing. Kinda wish I didn't know so it'd be more of a shocker.


Peace Walker spoilers, but it may affect TPP for you:

They are.
it was meant to be the traditional "phone call" twist after the credits in MGS.

like I said, a lot of people are going into TPP without knowing this.

It's just a casette tape recording of a phonecall. Nothing major.

Or is it?!

I think it's kind of a major thing. It's strange that it's revealed only after you S-clear all the missions.

Wow, that is a GIGANTIC plot point. Why'd Kojima leave that out, and not instead have Big Boss's speech be a real cutscene?

Is it just me or is the spreadsheet link gone from the OT? Or am I mixing up topics that should have the spreadsheet?

Learning this evening why i never download games digitally via PSN, initial game client downloaded 3/4gb in 6 hours, still with 20gb left to go.

And this is on a wired fibre connection with a download speed of 150mb. Guess taking the week off work was a mistake haha.
 
Are we getting a new mobile app? I'd love to micromanage Mother Base through my phone. I mean, the whole MB/FOB thing is kind of an in-game version of the Ground Zeroes app, but it would be awesome to mess with it on the go.

I'll definitely see this: micromanagement using the app would actually be quite helpful because in game management becomes a chore that detracts from the meat of the game.

Totally agree, very scummy/sketchy. I really hope that the impact is minimal.

I play/played several free to play games (path of exile, hearthstone, heroes of the storm, world of warships, to name a few) and very rarely will I spend real money on them. If I do, it's after playing many hours for free and I treat it almost like a tip.

The difference here is obvious: I'm paying full price for MGSV and my urge to give a little back likely won't be there for a long time. UNLESS the game really is that great. But this comes back to my first point about not having really paid for the game.

With everything, thought, it's a "we'll see" kinda thing.

Regardless, I totally agree that this whole thing stinks.

Any chance I can get in on the Steam group? ID is trillbo.

when i pressed download on the store it started downloading the full 26gb, then after a couple of minutes it reverted to 4.5ishgb of which it's taken 6 hours and it's still not finished. After the 4.5gb download has finished it's then going to download the remainder of the game, though judging by the time it's taken to download this small amount it'll be thursday before i even get to play, disgusted isn't the word.

Try stopping/starting the download again.. when I first started the download I downloaded about one gb in an hour. I stopped/started the download and was able to download around 30 gb in about 6 hours

Hey community, just wanted to let you know that Kindekuma will create OT5. The leading contestants and me agreed on that. :)

Looking forward to it, Kinde!

Beyond confident Kinde is gonna do a fantastic job, and from the sneak peek he sent me earlier, i'm confident we made the best possible choice :)
