is the hardcover guide worth it?
I feel like i would not really use it, because i tend to watch youtube guides for S-Ranks and things.. is it a good read while on the can at least?

How does Peace Walker hold up on Vita?
I kind of want to get back to that game for the hell of it. And since I just got a Vita...

Ahhh, that would make sense. Thanks.
I ordered it from ebay. I live in the United States, but it's free shipping from the UK with him. I paid only about $80 for it (via Paypal). I ordered it on August 25th and it got delivered on Sept 4th. Here is his link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Metal-Gear-...cf43071&pid=100033&rk=1&rkt=4&sd=371429478546
You can name your base ?
Is that something that happens when you unlock FOB. ?
I would go with Celestial Being.
Yes, it is a 00 reference. Celestial Being stands for wrecking shit. Whereas Akatsuki is just badasses doing whatever they want when they want in whatever country they want because fuck your borders.
Turns out it was 7, thanks for the reply!
I know who they are. And their ideals were so similar to big boss and his crew. Technically akatsuki is the better name. It also has the bonus of meaning "dawn" (daybreak).
So you could easily make a cool emblem for it.
Cool Easter egg spoiler.
I've only finished mission 20 but.

I really like it how if you hear the P.T. radio, when Skullface is near. That's a nice touch.
I would say Psycho Mantis and Volgin also, but i didn't hear it in the hospital in the prologue, so it might signify skullface more than it does them, they also weren't in "Where do the bees sleep"

Just powered my PC version up over 2 days, rather surprised how much I managed to S-Rank without repeating the whole way up to mission 21.
Those tier 4 mother-base resource requirements are nuts though and I can see konami's hand in that and it certainly explains the need for FOBs to gather more resources. I would ask what the fuck they were thinking but we already know.

I wish we had a mini map in single player.Yooo, looks like this is our first gameplay shot from MGO3.
I'm pretty damn excited since the gameplay in V is so damn good.
Nah i have to disagree, i think the map on the iDroid is enough. I prefer a clean UI but the mini map is a must have for MGO.

Well it looks pretty good in my room at least!
But yeah, it's decent - it looks especially helpful if you want to be a completionist and do all of the extra tick boxes (side missions?) within the main missions, especially as it has detailed maps right there next to the guides. I haven't actually looked at the section, but it seems to have a pretty comprehensive reference section about all the various things you can do with mother base.
I read the introduction / primer and it was quite reassuring in telling me that, the first time through, you should basically just play how you want - a lot of the side tasks you can't even complete on your first play through because you don't have all of the equipment you need, and you don't really need to be THAT deep about managing mother base either - most recruits are assigned automatically into their most suitable roles, so there seems little point in spending ages micromanaging them.
A few quick thoughts:
- Quiets outfit is even more awkward in-game compared to trailers.
- Perfectly planting all my C4 on the various targets undetected, only to have them disappeared because of a cutscene is beyond frustrating.
- Are they going to extend or rerun the login bonuses for the days the servers were down for maintenance? Pretty sure I missed out on some coins because of server issues.

I had a huge discussion about v with some buddies last night and some interesting things have come up. Now I myself, and many of you it seems, are still playing through the story and I can't wait to get through it (despite it being an incomplete game) so we can hold the story under a microscope because given what's happening with the game, its reveal, the mind fuckery, and people saying that they are disappointed with the story........feels like mgs 2 all over again. And that's a good thing.
I think I worded my post wrong originally tbh.
The story that's there I think is good. There's just not enough of it in my opinion. I think I'm on around mission 21.
There's still plenty of time for it to pick up though.

Anyone playing this on PC able to help me out with a save file? Done everything besides main (47?) 48-49-50.
Possible spoiler if you've not come this far.

However i managed to mess it up and did the Side Op/Main Op and lost Quiet, anyone got everything done up until Quiets Side-Op able to help me out so i can get her to stay? No replay for it.
I'm actually starting to take more of an active interest in this series. The only one I've completed so far is MGS4 (don't ask why I started with that one, I don't know) and Metal Gear Rising. I knew some stuff going in so I got most of the references (the stuff when you return to Shadow Moses, Screaming Mantis' fourth wall stuff, etc.). So I'm going back and playing through them in the correct order. Apparently I'm a lot closer to finishing MGS1 than I thought (I'm heating the key).
Yeah, you get him through a side mission, check your list of available missions and you should see it.

Short holiday over. So glad to get back to this game, been dreaming about it.
Oh god, I wish I was spoiled on how many different maps this game has way back when
Now I'm super anxious that it's all gonna end so soon...
But I guess I'm gonna still go in blind.
Also what is this I hear about missable cutscenes? Care to nudge me in to right direction so I won't miss them without spoiling alot?

If you just unlocked Africa, don't worry, there's still lots of game ahead of you.
Also be sure to thoughoutly inspect the Medical Bay after finishing the Extracting the Mother Base Soldier Side Op
Thanks, first one or all of them?

I don't think that CE is coming so I caved and bought the game. I've completed the prologue and the C1E1 and this game is crazy.

Is the medical bay the only area that has that something to "find" or are there others?
