The side missions are unlocked after you play through the main mission the first time, they're not connected to the main mission itself. You play them all separately from each other. By all means explore, but you're not missing out on any real side objectives when doing the main stuff.

That ending...
I mean where was the other one...
I want more, this is even worse than the normal Kojima game waiting!
Side bar: Harry Gregson can write some killer music.

regarding your question...search for the cassette tapes...

The music track when Snake lands on MSF and begins to shoot back at XOF is great.
The best track IMO is the one that plays when you just
free Paz from the cell and you're carrying her back to the LZ.

Took a few days, but good to know where to pin-point them. Now to get them and then mop up the side-misssion trophies and then 0 alert/kills no reflex all the missions. Hoo-boy.

The music tape is "Here's to You" yeah? The one behind Chico.

I've almost done everything so far but I'm finding the scoring really weird, I got a few C's sneaking around and restarting checkpoints so the final result is 0 alerts 0 kills and I've also gone Rambo and gotten a B, maybe time is super important or checkpoint restarts are very damaging to the score.

I liked the hunt down all the metal gear logos challenge and the model swap for the genome soldiers was nice to see. The cyborg ninja outfit is fantastic to just run everywhere in, there's so many amazing secrets in that level, I didn't even think to check the cells the first time through so I didn't notice the Darpa Chief and Armstech President until my second time through. Probably the best part of the game for me loved all the references
Yea, it's fucking bullshit.

Nope, look at mine! Also now that I think about it I'm confused as to how you took that picture.
Got this last night but didn't have a chance to play it. Started it tonight and beat the main mission in the same night... and still totally worth the asking price. The base is huge and there's plenty to explore, and after I
without running into a soldier/camera I couldn't get around in that condition without either being seen or having to take down, and since knock-outs seem to last super short compared to what I remember and limited tranq ammo, I just went rambo at that point around the edges of the map to
. Got a C ranking, definitely want to improve that. And even if I do figure out one way, there are so many paths to take/things to try/skills to hone...
GZ will be my training grounds to finally "get good" at Metal Gear full-stealth-mode without abusing saves in prep for PP. Definitely will be spending a lot of time with this in the future.
got to Paz before Chico by accident, I couldn't carry her out

Thanks for the spoiler.
That is "Love Deterrence" Acoustic Instrumental version, I prefer it much more to the regular J-Pop version found in Peace Walker. I remember the first time it played during PW and my jaw dropped, but I just went with because well it's Metal Gear!

So not only are we going to get TPP but also the new Metal Gear Online.
I'm hoping they will let use use all the CQC moves on other players.

Well, it might not be a hard spoiler, but imo it's still a soft spoiler, since it either spoils gameplay options or a potential plot twist.

Okay, that's a relief. Disregard my previous comments as a false alarm in that case.
Wasn't that version in PW too? I remember listening to it on the Walkman all the time.
It's not just that game
there are plenty of other "false" tags that can't be removed including Metal Gear Arcade and Metal Gear Ac!d, he has some disparaging remarks about Arcade if you try to erase it and if you call Kaz when looking at the Ac!d logo he goes "Metal Gear... something...something, no I don't remember that one." Also, when I erased the MGS4 logo Kaz says something along the lines of "you can erase the tags but you can't erase the memories." Is Kojima possibly commenting on his disappointment in MGS4?

Yeah, I probably could have clarified a bit more. I wouldn't take a spoilery picture and post it without any warnings.
Huh. Well, I wouldn't be surprised.

So I bought the game digitally on the Playstation store, does that mean I can't register it for the exclusive Phantom Pain DLC?

Tora said it pretty much does it automatically if you get it digitally.

You don't have to do a super-fast, ultra-perfect run for most S Ranks, thankfully. Just try to keep it around 20 minutes, that should be good enough if you don't get spotted and only kill a few guards.
Speaking of which, I'm so relieved you're allowed to kill guys and still get an S Rank on most, if not all the missions; there's nothing I hate more than restarting something after 15-20min because some jackass pops up in front of me just as I launch a rocket.

This post is best post.
Does anyone know if it is possible to tell a "hostage" guard to say to the "CP" that everything is alright? I was just playing and one of the guards saw me and radioed to the officer "I just saw a suspicious person, i'm going to investigate". I took him as a hostage but then the officer radioed the guard, asking if everything was okay.
Seems like an oversight if it is not possible.

Been retrying the checkpoint after
for like an hour straight now and I'm ready to throw the controller out the window. Played every MGS games and I've never been as frustrated as this. I'm out of sleep ammo, don't have any chaff grenades and
This game seems insanely more difficult than normal MGS, or at least the checkpointing just seems incredibly worse because of how much you have to replay if you die.
Any easy way to beat this area?

guys and cameras everywhere and if alarm sets TANKS and APCs too. I can take out the first bunch of guys by CQC but something always goes wrong when I get top-side and the alarm instantly goes off and I'm fucked.

Well I had to go and get all the patches so I figured "I'll try this on hard". Yep, there is a reason I don't play games on hard. I don't find them enjoyable that way. Instead I switched back to normal, found the tank, went on a murdering rampage, found all the patches and now have Deja Vu unlocked. Going to wait until tomorrow to play so I'm not so damn tired.
EDIT: And I apparently need to use the iDroid app because I can't stand having to go into the menu to view the map.

Depends where you entered the admin room but there is a generator switch that turns off the cameras. Also you can shoot them with your silenced rifle.
You might want to disable the power of the base to turn off some of the lights and security cameras. That should help you extract Paz. To be honest, extracting Paz is easier compared to getting to Chico and extracting him. You really need to plan your path. The best is through the front of the base. I can extract Paz even in hard for less than two minutes.

I searched the whole map for hours with all the enemies neutralized, and i'm still missing two XOF patches and a few tapes.
They did a good job hiding these things.

Some of the tapes are only available on certain missions, and another is from

Bebpo I was going to try and type up a way to help out but I suck at describing lay outs. If you're really having issues don't hesitate to reload checkpoints, it will give you more tranquilizer ammo to knock people out if you're low which is handy.
God I love this game. Up to 91% completion!
