XOF patches and cassette tapes found carry over in subsequent playthroughs, right?
Yes. You have to clear a checkpoint after picking them up or they wont remain in your collection.

Is there a way to tactically open and close doors or is it just move away / slam open?

I was saying EXACTLY the same thing to my coworker today!
It just sounds bizarre now having this cast of anime/VG actors reading lines with Sutherland, especially Chico and Huey lol

Why does this game launch a day later in UK/Ireland compared to the rest of Europe? It's bad enough we still get games later than America but now later than mainland europe too? Bullshit. I wanna play

Are there any comparisons that focus specifically on the ps3 vs 360 versions and not include the ps4 vs xbox one. Anyone here know which is the better version between ps3 and 360.
Chico sounded okay, I thought. Same with Paz. Pretty good, actually, considering what the voice actors had to portray compared to what was in PW.
It'll be interesting to see if Christopher Randolph can pull off a serious reading though, lol. I wonder what he'll have to say when Huey inevitably pisses his pants.
apparently because of retailers preferring to get new stock in for/on friday.

I found this extremely annoying I got caught off guard because of this. Also, the contextual cover needs to be refined, it's way too touchy.
Wait, so is there more than the side missions + deja vu?
I'm assuming vic/big boss.
No.

Yeah exactly. I just don't like how they made the effort to let guards see you through door grates (which I think is a cool detail) and then have this totally lame old-school system for controlling the doors. It feels so out of context with the other refinements they've made to the stealth. Agreed on the cover mechanics as well.

So has it been mentioned that the Deja Vu mission basically confirms Rising isn't canon?

Gz looked great, but in the day light scenarios the game really looks pretty odd. The darkness and wetness of the rain really hide a lot.

Anyone know where tapes 5 and 6 are?
I can't confirm that, and since I don't know the other locations, I can't verify the accuracy of that. D:
And getting through that speed-run route that was linked here as an S-rank abuse of reflex... without using Reflex... is damn tough on Normal. Hitting the light-guard with the tranq at a distance while avoiding two vehicles and another guard and trying to take the light-guard down (which seems to have hit detection issues with the FPS mode since the game is crushing blacks on PS3... *sigh*) is nearly impossible. It'd be nice to have an X hit-marker to at least let me know I hit the person...
Once you take them down, it's pretty cake for Chico. You can even take the lights out there to give yourself some darkness but apparently firing the gun without the supressor despite the guards being knocked out in the area seems to send an alert out since someone from the otherside of the map will hear the gunshots. :/
My thoughts exactly.
Worth $30, no doubt. I've already put 6 hours into it. Nowhere near finished messing around, either.
Can someone help me out here? I'm playing the PS3 version and on the mission where
, just as the mission ends the translation from gameplay to cutscene freezes up and I'm stuck in the helicopter with the music. This happens often too, I can't finish the cutscene where I talk to the agent who hid the tape, and the opening cutscene to any mission besides GZ. 120GB slim model.
I rescue Kojima
I bit the bullet and traded in Thief to get this for free at Gamestop.
Result?
Played for about 2 hours to 3 hours messing around with just the main mission and completed it. To me JUST that was worth $30.00.
I retract my original statement. While I would've liked it to be less---there's more than enough meat here to justify a $30.00 purchase if you are a Metal Gear fan I feel.
Either way, the price will come down ASAP, but if you are someone who isn't just a main story hit and quit kind of player, then there is a LOT here to do to get a 100% completion rate or close to.
I LOVED it, and I CANNOT wait for Phantom Pain now. Bring on the collector's editions!!
That said-------------
I was wondering, can I customize my weapons like MGS4? Remove my silencers, attachments, etc ?
Also, they dropped FPS view mode for guns too ?
I couldn't just knife enemies either...what's up with that?
I'm a little hesitant what the next Metal Gear Online will be like now without the knifing and CQC shenanigans. CQC is still there, but also dumbed down as far as I can tell.
It seems they "streamlined" everything, but IMO for the worse.

You can add/remove silencers for the weapons that already have them equipped, but so far no customization. Partly due to this being early Alpha/verticle-slice for Phantom Pain. Hopefully the customization comes back from 4 in 5.
Hit R1 while aiming your gun for fps view.

Man I miss the "knock on the wall" mechanic from MGS4 and how CQC was tailored specifically for primary and secondary weapons and how specific CQC moves could be triggered using different combos. Streamlining the CQC now feels like a step down from MGS4. The AI is definitely smarter now though, I give them that. Overall gameplay is still smooth and satisfying but I wish they hadn't removed some of the things that I mentioned.
Just look at this and tell me you don't miss it:

I remember how pissed I was when they first showed the Jamais Vu mission because It looked much better than Deja Vu and all I have are Playstation consoles but after playing Deja Vu and watching a video walkthrough on Jamais Vu my opinion flipped completely. DJ has so much more work and detail put into it that it's crazy. JV is just a simple kill the targets objective. But one random thing that stuck out was Raidens voice. When he say's spit it out when you interrogate someone it sounds a lot like David Hayter and there is no credit for Raidens voice in the end. Maybe I'm just tired. But these exclusive missions should end up on the opposite consoles as free DLC since the game is lacking in missions.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
I notice that if the 'spotted' indicator pops up, there's no real way to hide and get rid of it. That seems really frustrating, it's definitely more realistic (why would they forget they saw you?), but for the sake of gameplay it should give you some leeway, unless there's something I'm missing...

You should probably spoiler tag that. I thought the surprise was awesome since I didn't know about it before hand and this might ruin it for some.
I ran through the game tonight and I really sucked at it. It took 80 minutes and I got a C rank. I ended up dying and having to retry seven times. I don't know how many guards I killed. I played worse than the guy streaming last weekend. I hope the guards are easier to see in The Phantom Pain. I ran around almost the entire game with the night vision goggles on so I could see enemies. I hope the instant alert is gone in The Phantom Pain too. It seemed to me like it was a lot harder to get out of alert status. Most of the times I died was because I couldn't get away from the enemies. I was even hiding under a shed once and they still found me. They have x-ray vision.
Sorry about that, went and edited my post.
Fixed my own issue! My dorm has a really shaky internet for wireless, so I guess my PS3 kept trying to send my mission data to the server which was causing the freeze. Disabling internet fixed it.

Just beat it a few minutes ago. GAWD DAMN at that ending. Phantom Pain can't come soon enough.
Me too.
I absolutely love the tone of the story.
I was definitely not expecting to see a
little girl's guts all over the place, damn!
Also, as far as Big Boss is concerned

Haven't gotten to play it yet, but does this game have any bosses? Don't tell me who they are, just if they are any at all.

What console?
What drain?
You main the roof?
Or the crawl-space? Aim at the cherrypicker in that case.
