I never used this until now and since I have wormhole extractor now I won't be using it again probably.
Wow, how did I not think of that.

Yeah that mission is maybe my least favourite in the game, simply because I never got it to work the way that it's 'supposed' to.
I tail the guy, he interrogates the first prisoner. Then he moves to interrogate the next two prisoners, but the interrogation never triggers. Everyone just stands around until one guard unloads his shotgun into the prisoners out of nowhere. The interpreter never moves to the last prisoner. Other times he never arrived to the second interrogation, he turned around and started wandering aimlessly on foot. One of the mission objectives is to listen to all the interrogations so I guess it's possible, but nothing happened even when I managed perfect stealth.

The empty world isn't so bothersome once you learn to abusing the return to acc option instead. Honestly it's a problem all open world (though this game doesn't go by your typical open world definition) games have. Even a game like Witcher 3 which has received countless praise for its world has to fill out the map with bandit camps, hidden treasure, etc. because it's impossible to truly fill up an open world with interesting content.
Just noticed something. There isn't a way to just drop anywhere on the main without selecting a mission, is there? I know you don't have to necessarily go on the mission when you do drop down, but still, I wanna tell the game I rather free roam instead of selecting a mission.

I'm now resorting to
just wandering around and having my dog sniff out prisoners and fultoning every single one until Kaz is like "nailed it, sir." Interpreter is just bumbling around at this point.
It's the missions that keep you going. Once those stop rolling and you have to grind random shit to finish the game, that's where the burnout really sets in. I'm feeling it right now.
It's literally Kojima's fault
Baker came in and did a really good Zimmerman impression. Then at some point, Kojima told Baker to stop doing an impression and just do his Joel voice. And that was that.
there's a free roam mode

Free roam is in the missions list. Just press r1.

Questions:
What's the best way to farm heroism? (any mission is fine since I beat the game)
Does anyone have a location sheet on where all the cassette tapes and animals can be found?
Any way to get more fuel resources? I'm way under on them and I can't connect online to invade other bases.

There is literally a mission deployment tab labelled "Free Roam" lol.
Pause menu.
Regarding Troy Baker's Ocelot - he sounds like a guy trying to sound like John Wayne. Which makes sense to me as maybe it's what Ocelot should have sounded like all along.
dat hyperbole
I'm still waiting to get to the point where I turn into one of the people who just come in here to relentlessly shit on the game. But I'm well into the 40s on story missions and that hasn't happened yet. Haven't had any trouble progressing/unlocking either.
yeah that's how I did it too, outside of the extreme version of 29 which I did for fun. The grind would really get to me if it was like Peace Walker with mega bullet sponge co-op bosses but I haven't had much trouble so far just making do with what I have.
It's not that I hate grinding, it's just the time gating on resource processing and the fact that because I'm playing offline (servers been awful on PC almost every time I connect) I'm gimped regarding staff space and resource generation. If I really cared though I'd fire up a trainer.

Side Op 114 ended up being surprisingly hard.
Eliminate the Tank Mission 01. Their strategic positioning was extremely tight to the point where I actually couldn't get to the other side without getting caught.
That still doesn't make any sense to me. It happens randomly when I'm sneaking around. I don't kill anyone, like, ever.
Finally! After ordering back in March, my Japanese CE finally arrived!
oh wow... now that is a CE item. That looks awesome dude.
Did the iDROID come with it too? if you get the OST you should share that with me.

Make sure you do the deployment missions. S ranks will give you around 1600 heroism (or was it 2000) and mission 29 is a quick one to farm and has soldiers with good stats at the end.
If there's no fuel in the world it's because you've used it and it needs time to repopulate back in the world. There are usually red containers at the military base, the airport, the mine,
OKB Zero
I got the iDroid last year, it's the main reason why I had to get the Japanese CE too since both items are 1:1. I got the OST and Vocal tracks on iTunes already :>

This works with the wormhole extractor.

After attaching the Fulton, you will get another prompt to hold down Y/Triangle. That's Snake grabbing on! I just used it to save chopper expenseI tried that but I just fell off
Try
Fultoning the prisoners before they're executed. You'll get info about the mission target out of them

You have to hold Y or Triangle after you fulton to grab the fulton cord. It also doesn't work in mother base, only out on the field. It's great I use it all the time. Love it when a I finish a mission with a million guards shooting at me then I notice a shipping container and I'm like "Cya later fellas".
Here's the quick and dirty way of how I did it:
So after the interpreter gets done with the 1st guy, he'll move to a little half-house with a bunch of other guards and a prisoner.
Toss a Smoke Grenade or two, CQC/Neutralize them all, and Fulton them out.
Miller/Ocelot get pissed at you, but they interrogate the Interpreter to find out where they'll interrogate the Viscount at Night.
So...you can use the Phantom Cigar to speed up time until late night (like midnight?), at which point a solider will be escorting him down the road to the building.
Pop the guy, and get the Viscount and that's it. Just don't do what I did and stick too close since I accidentally triggered an Alert with the Cigar.

It really is just a difference in direction. Kojima told him to sound like Joel.
Once you hit a checkpoint (which you always do at the end of a side op), yes.

Yup. Loads you straight into your ACC. Makes things much faster and doesn't cost GMP.
Missions are varied!? Please tell me that is a joke.
The objectives of 95% of all missions is to either kill someone, extract someone or blow something up. It gets boring and repetitive quickly.

What is the point of hiding the camo index? It's obviously still there, it just doesn't surface the numbers. Brilliant stuff.
I thought I'd love using all the camo, until I figured out that you're loud as fuck in everything except the sneaking suit. I've never used anything else. I feel kinda bad because I wanted to go the MGS3 route, but changing camos to fit the surrounding doesn't make sense anyway given the gameplay. Going prone makes you basically invisible no matter what. So being a quiet mofo is way more practical.

Yeah I noticed the

The camo index became redundant with MGS4 where your suit changes to match the surface you are on. Why even have the mechanic there at that point? The index is unnecessary to convey your visibility for stances and in light/darkness.
After close to 50 hours I'm still finding new ways to beat missions.

Bad camo makes you get spotted at distances where you would usually be comfortable at.

Sehalanthropus was messy. I lost money doing that mission. There has to be an easy way to fight it.

Yes... and?
The mission areas are pretty varied along with the encounters. What does it matter to me if the goals that you conduct in the areas are from a pool? That's not how I define variety.
Pretty much anything, in any game (or MGS game) can be reduced to such a simple set of goals if you want. Go here, watch a cutscene etc.
