Does Pequod just get blind fucking drunk on Mother Base? Why can he not fly in a straight fucking line between platforms?

They made it that way on purpose so you could take in the beauty of your Mother Base,

This is not a joke. Remember you can fast travel with your cardboard box.

You can do whatever. They aren't graded and I haven't run into anything that was too crazy besides a cassette tape
that is someone taking a dump.
Listen to a podcast all you want. Only the yellow ones have important story details. Everything else is basically VR missions.

aww yeah gonna catch up on some SERIOUS podcasts tonight

Hopefully the effort I make will make those silly replay episodes go away
 
Mission 28

I really wish this game would stop with these missions where you have to carry an invalid out on your back through a whole ton of obstacles and the extraction point is hundreds of meters away.

Hehe, thanks.

I may have been in the insane group of people who caused the head transplant doctor insanity, but I would never actually dick someone over :3



[Item Spoiler, I had it by mission 16ish I want to say?]
Stealth camo
is very useful to break side ops seeing as they're unranked

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.
and that popup should show every additional time? I just went and did another one and didnt get that again

Shows up for me when I take out an outpost (the ones along the road that have 3 to 5 guys). I usually go in non-lethal though.

So fuck mission 16. Especially that second part, though I was able to
lure the Skulls away, fulton the truck, and then run to the other armored transport and book it out of there. Whew.
Glad I still came away with a B.

....explain this to me like I were a child.

Around Motherbase AND the actual field areas you will find these orange platforms. They have a sign posted for truck delivery. You get on with your cardboard box and it will bring up a map.

For Mother Base you can go to any major strut. For the field you need to acquire the postal invoices (just hold circle) to mark it as a fast travel point.
 
Guys, I'm running around trying to unlock all the fast travel locations and I'm wondering if there is one in the Aabe Shifap Ruins, and I don't see one anywhere. It doesn't SEEM like one would be there, but some of them have been hard to find for me before.

Aren't the platforms in motherbase yellow? Only the enemy ones are orange.
 
Is there an unspoilery guide to what I need to do for Chapter 2?

I do not want to replay missions I've already done, I heard there's another way?

Remember that some Side Ops are marked yellow to indicate they are important. They will move things along.

Yup. I grabbed a screenshot of the truck stops on the field earlier today, to make it easier for people to identify. I didn't go near those for the longest time and had no idea they actually had a function, even though I used the box travel on Mudder Base all the time.
 
Oh ffs, everytime I enter this thread something like this happens. I'm not coming here again until after I finish the game. I hope that spoiler isn't at the end of the game, wich mission is it?

Quoting for new page, can someone tell me in wich mission does this happen?
lori alan appears

Are the yellow ones the only ones that will move things along?

As far as side ops go, yes.

Now, you can be in a normal white side op and stumble upon certain areas where important stuff happens but that's not common. (It's because you are in Free Roam mode during Side Ops)

Destroyed them with a tank (not the one already there, one I use for transportation lol). Still got an A ._____.

Well seeing as you survived that flight
As did Kaz (he was onboard with you, right?)

Going to assume Morphos fine :p

I am on mission 35 of TPP, so I don't know if they address this, but earlier in this game there was a cassette suggesting that (TPP spoilers LIKE SERIOUS METAL GEAR SOLID V SPOILERS)
Chico died in the crash! Two alive (Kaz and Snake), then two dead (Chico and Morpho) sounds plausible to me.

Mission 38ish tape
called Informant's report is so good. Probably one of the better tapes in the game thus far. Its crazy how BB awakening and thirst for revenge triggered Mantis. And after Mantis gets taken away he shortly meets Volgin whose thirst leads him back to BB. The small chance of something like that happening and the coincidence involved is so Metal Gear. Love it! :D

Consider investing into armor and heavier weapons. It doesn't get easier.

I'll say mission 20ish spoilers since I just remembered it but
I love that you can't harm the kids besides throws but you can wait around the corner and do the normal takedown- which is grabbing them and throwing them around you, slamming their head into a wall. That would easily kill a kid, or at least severely harm them.

And my first thought when that tape played was "Fuck you Kojima."

I wanted more
chat time with Chico about UMA's
. But now that won't happen.

I clicked this for the sake of discussion and motherf

That was on me though >_>

Interesting though, but we do still need an explanation for why pequod/morpho sound the same :V
 
Why are their controller buttons being used in the tips/hints loading screens and in-game tutorials when I'm playing on PC with a mouse/keyboard? I'm not learning how to play the game properly because of this nonsense. One of the loading screen hints literally had a mixture of pc and controller buttons. Kind of regretting my purchase a bit honestly. Just screams lack of care for pc players.

Sorry about that! I think I heard it in a cassette like really early on. Somewhere before Mission 10.

Yep. The
wait command, just like with DD
is fucking useless. I was raging.

That plot point was already established in Metal Gear 2!

Okay so I am only on mission 18 but I think I may have figured out the ending. If somebody could confirm or deny my theory please.

so the insanity of Paz being alive in the med bay and the fact that how that all went down was different to how we saw it in gz got me thinking. Also the conversations about cloning with huey and BB having no idea about it leads me to believe that punished snake is another clone.
