This game really does rely on you having played/seen Peace Walker and Ground Zeroes.

Of all the things to destroy my suspension of disbelief in this at times completely nonsensical game, it's really just the fact that I can't carry multiple suppressors with me but can carry 2 completely unnecessary weapons if I just had more suppressors.

Man, it's no wonder I held off doing the training side ops at Mother Base.
I started off with the hardest one (R&D) and gave up until I realized that R&D was the only one that required you to go into every nook and cranny while navigating the cobbled together mess that is the R&D strut.
Ended up looking up a guide for it.

Quite literally fuck episode 45
It appears that the enemy just decides to use all their fucking tanks in this one instance. Not to mention, they seem far more capable than the sahelanthropus. I've had no problems with any mission thus far, not really anyway. this is by far the worst mission in the game.

Is there a way to destroy stuff without c4? E.g. com links. Like a quieter way?
Have you not tried shooting it with a silenced rifle? That will destroy all of those things, even the anti-air radar.

The Community threead just enlightened and reminded me how good Mother Base 1 looked:
I miss it.
What I like about MB 1 compared to 2 is: there aren't crazy long connecting struts to each platform, so it wouldn't seem too bad traversing them all on foot; there's a giant skyscraper that seems like a cool hq that would be fun to explore; there were runways and strips/helipads that had actual planes/helicopters stationed on them. I like the complexity of MB 2 (besides R&D platform maybe) and the intricacies, but it's too spread out, formulaic, and honestly, a bit sparse (would prefer seeing vehicles/more soldiers).

Am I the only one that Futons everyone?
Maybe that's why I don't have any money.

Oh shit, episode 12.
Now, this is what I was waiting for after that fucking intense as hell intro!

Well yeah that makes practical sense, but it takes whole seconds to get to a fast travel depot to go somewhere else. Whole seconds!

Pure conjecture but it might help with memory on the last gen consoles too. The platforms are spaced far enough away that you only see a really low LOD version of the others.

So is this rumor that we are getting an announcement today about MGSV or PT true or some bs rumor?
That's a good point. And from a game development stand-point, it helps lod'ing out the other bases you aren't on more significantly.

Agree...even the cutscene after it was good and emotional. The standout of c2 so far...just wish the rest of c2 was so disjointed.
stop doing side missions and go straight through the story missions
Mission 33:
LOL, at first I tried to get explosives from enemies and died three times trying. Then I just took my AK47 that I had stolen from a solider at a small outpost and shot 5-6 bullets at the communication antennas from that small hill with the two mines. Apparently that works just as good as a bazooka...

Not my fault their "totally opt-in, honest! (trollface)" mode is FORCED on me for going online to get their daily rewards.
At the very least, if you're going to offer me to chance to catch the invader, at least let me fucking CONNECT GODDAMN IT.

In other news: (LATE GAME MISSION SPOILER): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpYO13xoRGE <---That is a pretty good method for the infamous mission everyone has problems with.
I used this loadout. Along with that method and:
Got an S-rank within 5 mins or so because of it. You kinda have to "luck out" on the AI spazzing out a bit if you fail the method because if you don't land just right you won't be able to flip the enemy and smash it for massive damage.

Well to be honest with you I hate Fast Travel in OW games, I'm fine with them being there if either the world is interesting to traverse through or there is also way to automatize the travel, as in Taxi in GTA.
I hate if I feel forced to use it because the drive isn't even a straight line.
Would if have been so hard to put a designated driver into the cars that drive you back and fro between the platforms? So I can just chill instead of driving off the bridge.
Thanks, I wasn't really doing anything other than staring at my list of guys looking to see if I missed anything.
It's such a bad mission. Those tanks have laser precision and can OHK you so easily.

The helicopter does what you're asking, but even that trip feels super padded in length. Its great if you want a solid 360 swoop-around view of the platform before you land though.
That trip by jeep takes forever and is the definition of dull. Its you, driving in a straight line with your jeep engine noise trying to lull you to sleep. And its a trip closer to a minute, if not more, which is a lot longer than just "seconds".

Yeah that too, I hate to resort to fast travel but even the helicopter is cumbersome to use. You have to call them from the menu, the pilot flies circles around the platforms and slalom through the bridge.
Speaking of helicopters where do they park? I haven't built a hangar and they never park anywhere, they donpt even touch down. Are they just in a continuous state of flight?
A straight line to drive one would have been preferable sadly we don't even get those

Seriously, I was mocking their precision in anger.
I finally got passed it, thank God.

I've been dreading mission 29. First time I beat in 4 mins S rank perfect stealth no kills. Weird mission but did it easily with d walker. What was everyone's trouble?
I love how they handled fast travel in this game. Just wish you could use D-Walker on Mother Base.
Also it's off how D-Dog wont ride in a jeep with you to other platforms...must be a technical limit.
Not using Dwalker lol. I tried without for awhile, D walker makes it easy mode.
I was screwing around with my iDroid and then turned it off, she was right in my face, I damn near jumped.

What the..!
So I had read somewhere that listenning to Quiet's humming on your idroid actually
, so I was listenning to it and testing to see if it actually worked, and this sound happened after a few time of listenning it and it just stopped. The sort of sound that a walkman would do when eating a tape. It turns out Quiet's humming song is not in my Idroid anymore.
So either it was because it was on my idroid's speaker and it fucked it up, or there's a limit to how much you can use the "skills" of what the little songs can do when played on the idroid. Ie: Paz's Humming makes it so in the side ops where you search

for your old mates, "Wandering Soldiers" I think, instead of having to run after them, they run at you instead giving Big Boss a salute telling him they had never lost fate. Giving you the possibility to fulton them right on the spot making the side ops extremely easy to complete.

Alright, straight up real talk time - Tapes fucking suck. They are terrible. The entire point of them is that you can listen to them on the field but that is a terrible idea because Kaz and Miller will just yell at you over the tape and there is no quick pause button, so you have to open your idroid, go to the tape and roll it back...on the field, leaving you completely open. So I usually just listen to them on the ACC...so why do they exist in the first place? Why not codecs? If we could codec call Miller maybe we could understand him better then a dumbass hypocrite and Ocelot would get an inkling of a character.

Weird, just captured an Okapi but wasn't doing anything special besides idling in the starting Africa area.
Saw it and was thinking "wait, those are uncommon irl" and indeed it's classified as super rare in the game.

*presses L1*
You can accept missions via your iDroid...Boss, GET DOWN...the enemy sniper. Crawl around on the ground and stay out of his line of fire.
It's the Radio that sucks in this game. Tapes are fine, at least there's more of that than the Codec we got in MGS4.
Yep, that's pretty much how it was for me as well haha.
I think if they are stealthy enough and don't get caught you will never know who it was.
I didn't know that, that's kind of awesome.
Might be wrong, but thought I had heard that. Actually kind of sad that I haven't been raided yet.
