I love Pokken!
Huh so they removed the Action Type B control setting that was available in GZ? Using R2 for CQC sucks.

Mission 1 gameplay question:
Where are the diamonds in Spugmay Keep?

There is a lot of game.
Played all weekend and I feel like I have barely scratched the surface in 15 hours. It's like the exact opposite of MGSIV.

for some reason my ps4 tells me that the day one update is going to take 2hrs to download a 400mb file, which is painfully slow. It shouldnt be so slow considering my internet is really fast. I've speedtested my internet on my computer, ps4 and iphone and it shows that I still have the network capasity(100mb down, 10mb up) that I bought, but i am still downloading this patch awfully slow (~0.7 megabytes per second) which is not even close to the perfomance i should have...
Anyone else have this issue?

Ditto. Well, last night I played two hours, but basically I thought I was going to steamroll through this game. However, I find myself playing an hour and feeling quite satisfied, even if I really want to keep playing. So, anyway, I'm going to really let this drip-feed my soul.
I even stop the game after every single mission and listen to all of the tapes that I have unlocked.

Finding it really fustrating as a all digital gamer this gen. On the UK PSN the game is 60 pounds yet can be found online and in Supermarkets for 40 pounds. A 20 pound mark up for a product that has less productions costs than physical. I know publishers set the price but that's madness.
You should keep it, the collector's edition guide is massive. Approx. 40 pages on story and biographies alone, not only on MGSV but on all main Metal Gear games. 48-page art gallery with comments by Kojima, 150+ pages map-based walkthrough. 416 pages in total.
Bought this as a birthday gift for a family member but seriously considering keeping it. It's huge!
There's an official flip-through video of the guide (beware of spoilers such as the full map poster, depending on how sensitive you are):

I heard people telling me I need to press Square (PS4) button in the music menu to set it as Helicopter theme, but I can't do it. Do I have to unlock the feature later on? Or specific place I need to do them? ( I am doing it inside the chopper)
how early are you? I haven't try to set song to my heli too, but I'm sure I saw a heli upgrade that allow you to install loudspeaker so it can play songs.

Well, that's the thing. It can be had for around $20-30 from international sellers. That is, if you don't mind the questionable UPC symbol on the back. Not a big deal for a lot of people but I don't think the genuine case Konami is using has one.

Yes thats where you do it. Maybe you have to get it a little later? Just keep doing missions and the icon will pop up there.
Nothing better then blasting amazing music when your chopper comes and pick you up.

You unlock it mate. Upgrade your Helicopter when you can!
I try to only fulton the guys that at least have some sort of stats. Don't see much point in fultoning dudes with no stats whatsoever.

I need some advice because I'm not sure I understand what the game wants from me.
I'm trying to play it mgs1-4 style but it's not working out so well:
-guards don't stay knocked out for very long
-I can't see any stars over the heads counting down that would indicate how close an enemy was to waking up from other MGS games
-sneaking up behind a guard to choke him out has a very small window usually (requires a ton of patience to learn his pattern and make sure no other guard patrols will see me) and I have to painfully slowly walk crouch up to him or he will hear me. Is this super slow walk crouch really how I'm going to choking guards all game? The walk is painfully slow.
-The open nature makes it very easy to lose track of one of the guards and get spotted (I usually get spotted while crouching past a window while inside a house it seems)
I've only done the prologue and the first mission but I was spotted a whopping 6 times during the first mission and got a C rank
Any beginner tips or general tips on how to approach combat?
Am I not supposed to take out guards one by one with cqc like in other MGS games?
The sleeping dart pistol was always kind of a 'cheat' to get past certain situations in a pinch or to use when cornered, so I'm reluctant to rely on it.
Am I not supposed to study their patterns and solve it like a puzzle like in older MGS games?
I've been playing PP like how I have any other MGS game and it's been working fine, the only thing is you have to up your play style as the game has also made the level design and enemy AI much much more complicated. I've played missions using the tranq, and just CQCing everybody. Both methods neither feel like a cheat, or game breaking by any means. And marking enemies is definitely not un-metal gear considering how many blind spots there are.
You should also upgrade equipment according to that play style. Get better camo, and distraction items etc.

Is the share function fixed now? over the weekend you could not share screens from the game at all.

I think you need to get a loud speaker for it first.
Y'all gonna leave me hangin'? Now there's one right answer and the other leaves me heartbroken...if that moves things along at all.

that's the advantage of using the right camo most likely, you will be able to develop non camo suits later on.

You basically have to either Fulton them, tranq them while they're stunned or not stun them in the first place but either tranq them or hold them up and then get them down.
Bear in mind stun durations vary depending on how you stunned them: typically, KOing them with punches or a regular CQC throw will lead to a shorter stun time than a CQC throw into a wall or choking them.
The sneaking suit helps a lot in that regard as it makes your footsteps a lot less audible. Practically, this means you shouldn't be heard when doing a regular crouch walk to sneak up on an enemy.
Until you unlock it, things are probably going to suck though (IIRC, I had unlocked it by the time I reached mission 10, no idea if the one you get from the GZ save import is the same).
That's what marking is for and that's why marking isn't cheating, it's just a way to rebalance the game in an open world context. That means recon is crucial and whenever you approach a base, you should find some high ground to scope out as many enemies as possible. Ideally, find several vantage points to get different angles.
As you progress, motherbase development and buddies will make this easier but the first few hours are raw infiltration.
Bear in mind the silencer breaks easily anyway at first, so either have a very focused use of the tranq gun or call supply drops. For any given guard, I tend to always evaluate: how approachable he is for a hold up or a chokehold or how avoidable he is, ie how much I can simply ignore him. Overall, I usually drill one specific path through a base, darting as few guards as possible and leaving the rest alone and once I'm in, I try to figure out how to take them out in close quarters.
See above, you can. It's just that there are so many in large zones that I tend to remove some variables first with tranqs and only then, once I'm managing a more local situation, do I figure out the best route.

Buy from the us psn store. You can buy digital psn cards at cost from amazon.com. You don't even need to make a new amazon account. Your uk account will do. All you have to do is add a dummy US address to your amazon account. The codes are sent by email, so it doesn't matter what address you use. Oh, and create a us psn account too. Buy from the us store and play on your main account. Been doing it for a few years now without trouble. As have many of my friends.
Shit. And to think I (mission 11 spoiler)
wasted all that time with the tranq pistol.

Some people have said no, you get a decision after the fight whether to take her or leave her, regardless of the means.
Do what i did and outsnipe her with the tranq pistol :3 :3

Want to send a shoutout to Amazon.com since they still havent shipped my copy of the collectors edition. Sigh. Oh well, gives me time to do side ops missions, until the main game arrives.

Does DD get visibly bigger or does he just show up full size one day? I have 2 cutscenes and he's running around on mb now.

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'm surprised at how similar the strucrure is to Peace Walker, which I assumed was only used as a portable way to play MGS. I guess Kojima realized it was a good way to give a player freedom.

How do I hold people up? Is it L2 while tapping R2? (At work ATM)
Also, how do I go into the open world without selecting a mission?
