Does anyone know if the physical version come with a steam key? I know it activates on steam but do I actually need to use the disc, because I don't even have a disc drive on my desktop? Or if I need to use the disc can I just put the disc to my laptop and redeem it that way and then install on my desktop pc? And before anyone asks why even buy physical: The steelbook looks pretty cool and it's cheaper than steam version =)

That's the only thing it comes with (disc is only the installer for Steam, not game content)

I know the feeling, the twist in RDR was ruined for me by a /b/ post.

It's kind of made the story more interesting though. So many unanswered questions based on one tiny spoiler. Like a movie that shows you the ending at the beginning. Not too fussed over it. More irritated by the prick who thought it would be hilarious.

20 Hours To Go! My preload is finished. All we need to do now is wait..

Terrible reference that there's no way non UK GAFFERS would get, haha. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_-isKzt4O4

Guy at my work ordered it from them and received it on Saturday.

ordered and received same day? I didn't order it until saturday thinking they would ship it that day but it seems they didn't.

how about if I buy it on the australian ps4 store and then it should unlock in like 5 minutes because austria is in the future or whatever. do UK PSN cards work on the australian psn? i can't find any australian psn cards on eBay

As annoyed as I am that I got spoiled, that's a bit how I feel. I'm all in for the gameplay, anyway. I've played all the MGS games several times over and still loved them despite knowing all the story bits that were coming by heart.

Basically we'll know if it unlocks at local midnight times or New York midnight definitively in 3.5 hours when it'll be midnight in New Zealand. It's 6 hours until midnight in Australia.

That's the point when we'll be able to finally rule out any chance of preloading via VPN, and we'll be stuck waiting for another 14 hours after that.

I tranqed her with a Tranq sniper. I assume if you damage the red bar she dies.

I tried to do it with tranq gun and the mission went on for about an hour. I got her to the 75% but then she got me. It can be done I assume but its hard.

To unlock the tranq sniper you need to have a Lvl 15 R&D and Lvl 15 Medical. I dumped all my B and C soldiers from every other departments to get it done.



Yes. It rained when I was at Motherbase. No rain in Afghanistan (or atleast I havent seen it).

Re: QUiet,
You can totally nuke her. If you drop her belo 0%, you get the cutscene even if you did it with a rocket. No tranqs necessary

Ending was just ruined for me by a YouTube comment. It was just a fuckin music video as well, not even MG related.

I would strongly advise anyone to avoid YouTube comments or 4chan leading up to the release of a highly-anticipated game or movie if they wish to avoid spoilers, as these are by far the easiest ways to be spoiled on the internet, filled as they are with misanthropic little shits out to ruin your day and a shortage of moderation.

While I'm just 10 hours in, I have some theory about the story. (I've only read up the Stories of MGS3 and PW but the cassettes are also going into things that happenend in that games - surprisingly, the story got me hooked and I think I understand most things.)
Is this the place to talk about such theories? (in spoiler tags of course)

Lets. Do. This.

Nice OT!

I didn't follow the complete steam preload thread - how many hours until NZ gets it and we can try to VPN the preload?

I'm so happy that Ground Zeroes ran solidly on my old HD 7770. The PC choice was clear seeing how it was about $25 NZD cheaper on Steam than the PS4 version.

Anyone else from Europe having trouble to pre-order the game on PSN?
It always ends up failing and then being cancelled. Know for a fact that there's no problem with my credit card..
