I thought I would share again the little neat trick I discovered that if you throw a bunch of guys in the back of a truck and fulton the truck they all get fultoned.
Just actually just did this a few minutes ago. Extremely awesome and satisfying.
This is because of all the server status and what not. Day one when i booted the game non of this showed. It was a seamless transition to the opening. It was really awesome.

What the hell do you mean it's not that hard? It's about a thousand times harder. The helicopter comes about 5 minutes running distance out of nearly every base. I was literally in the middle of a base when I grabbed the guy. I had smoke bombed a bunch of guys and planned to grab him, take him outside and quickly fulton him out. Getting a helicopter was nowhere near easy at that point.
And I'm just angry because this is about the 4th time I've lost 40 minutes to an hour of gameplay because of the stupid checkpoint system. Checkpoint systems need to fucking die. Let me SAVE.
I just sneaked past those scary motherfuckers.
Fultoned the two tanks first, then fultoned the truck. Whenever those skull soldiers got near me, i threw an empty mag in the oposite direction and they'd swarm around it like flies to a turd, ahah. That empty mag is so fucking useful!
It takes a while because you need to crawl a lot, but it can be done, crawling+empty mag = op

Fuck Mission 18.
Fuck that was intense.
Managed to get my first S rank here too through all of those blood and tears. Never thought I'd get it since I messed up so many times.
The children kept hanging back too far and the soldiers were all huddled around one area and as I was picking them off one by one, suddenly the children would run off without my say so, since they seem to automatically do that if you go too far from them. The next issue was the fucking chopper just turning up randomly out of the blue with no clue as to where and when it would suddenly appear. Then the soldiers from behind who find that the prisoners are missing come a charging toward me too. Then I find out that you have to pick up and drop all of the children into the chopper first before you can exit. I lost at this final part so many times, you have no idea. The last time when I finally achieved it was thanks in large part to Quiet turning up and picking them off as they came around the corner.

Figured it out. If alert level is anything above low you can't use it.

Thanks for everyone who advised me on how to complete mission 16. I did it another way.
I distracted the skulls, called for the helicopter, fultoned it, then ran for my life lol.
But yeah waiting for them to go far from the truc to act is quite good too.

Hey do you know how to get in the hangar on the MB (R&D platform) ?
Are you looking for dialog that you missed during cutscenes? You can do that on your idroid btw. It even has conversations between you and enemies you hold up, and comms relay transmissions.
Otherwise, the only way I know is to goto youtube :c

Wow, the iDroid is 100x worse now that the servers are back online. What is it even checking for?
Yes you can change it.

Always disconnect when you have the chance for the time being by pressing select.
I'm willing to bet that you could once MGO releases.

Oh. I was wondering how you'd be able to view the "First time playing the game" intro cutscene, since it doesn't trigger for
replaying the prologue.
Is there any reason to stay connected? I need to get online when I get home to import my ground zeroes data, but other than that is invasions of FOB the only reason to stay online? (I'm not gonna buy MB coins)
I found it again while playing last night...it was on the customize option in the idroid menu while on the chopper I think

I've been doing this and I haven't gotten any cutscenes. Just beat Mission 12 if that matters.

You can. I think while on the helicopter there is an option to do so.
Well... I just finished Mission 16. I'm honestly surprised I managed to get this:

Is there a purpose to capturing animals beside the conservation platform and gaining GMP for doing so?
Like, can I supply drop a sheep onto an enemy? <- The important question.
Like, can I supply drop a sheep onto an enemy? <- The important question.
I'm still early in but I stop by mother base to shower and listen to some story tapes. (When I'm not in the open world)
I'm still avoiding spoilers, and haven't seen major plot stuff, but I'm wondering if this game works well as a way to fix some of mgs4's messy plot elements with the mgs3 characters...I don't want to get into specifics until I'm further in MGS5 than the second story mission, but that's the initial impression I'm getting from the tapes I've listened to. (Best series order maybe: 1 2 3 PW V 4)???

At the moment no, other than daily rewards(I don't know if they are just GMP or what) and FOB of course.

Past Episode 11 buddy question
How long am I waiting for Quiet to join me as a buddy? I visit the base often, hours ago I saw a cutscene when departing, nothing since. Is it tied to story progress?

anyone else get fooled into thinking solid snake suit was going to be a mgs5 version of ss sneaking suit instead of a MSG1 SS model

Does the game clearly explain once you get to the endgame how to go about unlocking the true ending? A yes/no will be fine.
Do you know how do I unlock more wandering soldier missions? Do I have to increase my intel team rank or is it tied to story progression?
Edit: Oh I'd also like an answer to the above question as well.
I got it around mission 13. I thought it came at the same time for everyone but maybe it has to do with the number of animals you've extracted?

Where is the zoo on mother base?
There's a cutscene viewer option under Mother Base > Log in the iDroid menu, but no cutscenes have shown up there for me.

Not at all
Open the iDroid. There is an option to give commands to Quiet like scout certain area.

Gah, that sucks. So, should one just look up a guide to do so after they hit the supposed "last" mission?
Reminds me of Peace Walker lol
Thank you.
