Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
it's much harder to go rambo then it is to stealth, If you can blow their brains out you tranq them.

I've noticed that a lot of the little in-game grunts are very Hayter-Snake like. Which I'm glad for.
Thats not fair I went back dozens of times and that one never played.
Quiet doesnt like me!
Not really, no. Only can adjust the volume of Custom Music. That's it.

I spent last night with your girlfriend. Love it

LOL. I love the little details in this game.
I'm still on the fence about this game
Thinking about getting it at Gamestop so I can at least trade it in if I don't like it
The reviews are all great and from the gameplay videos I've seen it looks like a beautiful game
Have you... have you never played a Metal Gear before?
If not, at least go with Ground Zeroes first.
M45: I quit. Will watch on youtube.
This mission is ridiculous. There's a tank with homing missiles that shoots ridiculously fast. It even gets me behind covers and one-hit kills me. I got to the helicopter part a couple of times, and that seems to be the final part, but fuck it. I took a break for about an hour before trying again, and after that I already tried for about half an hour. Just nope. This isn't the game I want to play. There was no goddamn reason for them to be fighting those tanks to begin with. Just get out of there. Who the hell even owns all of this stuff and why (for story purposes) didn't they use them before at this capacity?
If you get the opportunity get spotted and watch the AI. (Equipment 'spoiler')
helps.
The search AI is really fantastic. They gesture towards each other, cover corners and move in formation. It's really fluid, tactical stuff (at least with the PMC's, I'm not sure if I've paid attention to the other searches).

Having just finished mission 43 it's beyond obvious that something went catastrophically wrong at some point during development.
Why the FUCK would you place a mission like that as an afterthought? It would be the PERFECT catalyst for the whole "revenge" theme Chapter 1 fails miserably at. This should've been one of the first missions after you rescue Miller.
And then, after the mission is over,
I'm just so... confused. Nothing makes any sense, and not in the "hue hue clever ruse" kind of sense either.

you get this INSANE tape with Huey. Is that guy insane? Huey's personality switch is even bigger than Ocelot's.

Does this get a lot more difficult as it progresses?
Chapter 2 is where the concepts they couldn't fit into Chapter 1 are sent to die.
Don't worry though, you won't have that problem going forward.
Unlike Mission 43 the rest don't show promise, they just plain suck.
is anyone having recent glitchy troubles with this game? i keep getting stuck when pulling up the iDroid - it "loads" for ten or twenty seconds sometimes. now i'm completely stuck in the dispatch missions part of the iDroid and can't get out. the game isn't technically frozen - the screen is still moving, button inputs are being detected, sounds are being made, but shit isn't happening. . .

Try going offline. Worked for me.
i'm offline by default because of server work or something right now, i think.
this has only been a problem for me as of yesterday or so.
I've never played a Metal Gear game before but it looks fun, the whole sneaking around and capturing enemies and stuff it looks fun. But I'm not sure if I'm patient enough to play through a long game like MGS5

Had no problems with this mission tbh, took me 1 retry.
I use the big rocket launcher with lock on, which is the final one you can make and make sure Quiet has the Sinful Butterly (or does she have it automatically here?). I kept standing behind the rock at the left side of the road for the whole fight. Place mines between waves on the left road, and it might help to put a few in front of the rock and to the far right side as well. Only aim at the middle briefly, but they won't really hit you when you are behind the rocks.
The ending is worth it, though you will lose her forever so I dunno if I can recommend doing this mission.

I was staying near the houses, hiding behind them when necessary. I'm pretty sure Quiet has the Sinful Butterfly here, but the standalone guys aren't the problem, the tank with the homing missile is. It literally feels like I've stepped on a mine sometimes, because I just "explode" without even seeing where the missile is coming from. It happens even behind big covers. Everything before this was just god awful, but easy. I didn't die once before reaching this part. Every time I replay this, they're the ones killing me.

Weird. This also started happening to me yesterday but going offline fixed it. Maybe go into the pause menu and make sure your in offline mode? I can't think of anything else. The reason for the freezing is that the iDroid tries to connect to the internet every time you open it.

I've never been hit by it from my spot, it went down rather quickly. That sniper is also anti material. You can also call for air strikes.

In Mission 21 "The War Economy" where the fuck is the blueprint? I have legitimately interrogated and fultoned about 20 guys and none of them told me.

so now the frustration of using shitty technological devices in real life has been accurately ported into the world of videogames, fantastic.
"i can't play the game"
"why"
"because big boss' idroid has to connect to the internet and you know the internet sucks"

Actually you get demonpoints for killing people, especially innocents and developing nukes. Stop killing people.Unlocked gun customisation and container futon. Also started working in the second area.
Reached full Demon at 12% without trying
It is told.
It's in the helicopter. Shoot it down.

Oh shit.
Is there any way to fulton the heli or shooting it down is the only way? Can I do it without alerting the guards?
Some side-ops are repeatable. There are not only all at the same time active. The mapes are divided in different areas and there can only be one side-op be active in on area at a time.
I know of no method to take down a gunship silently. Part of why they are my greatest fear.

Thats weird I kill ALOT of people and still heroic
No you don't. Stop killing people mindlessly.

The writing for MGS has always been this bad, unfortunately. And yeah, as someone who just got done with that mission, it did come off as particularly stilted.
But hey! Having D-Horse rear up as flames raged around him was pretty cool!

You get 120 demon points for mercy killing a wounded enemy as opposed to leaving them in the desert to bleed to death. Ok then.
