Damn. I shot it down and it landed on a mountain outside the airport. Ran out to get it, MISSION COMPLETE. :/
You know, CP and patrols are a thing. They can be very reasonably be saved.
Haha, just start the mission anew and shoot the helicopter down before it arrives at the airport and then look if you can find the target and kill him.
There was one moment in a mission that blew my mind with the AI reaction. It was a Side Op and I got spotted near a building. I ducked in and out a side window without being seen again. One of the guys waited until three others formed up around him then they did a breach and clear in the house. I haven't seen those animations, tactics, or dialogue again since that happened.
Can you go to the spoiler thread with this kind of stuff please?

Oh man, whoever it was here who I saw recommend D-Walker for 2
is my favorite person ever. Took a try or two to get used to it, but it made that mission TRIVIAL.
9
with the Gatling Gun upgrade
I'm assuming that if I dismiss a interpreter, the associated side op will pop back up again? They, along with some R&D people and GZ save transfer staff are starting to significantly impact the level of their respective divisions. If I dismiss GZ staff, will they come back at a higher level? If not, can I have them just languish in the waiting room or does that eventually get auto purged if they are never assigned to staff?
There are a couple with attributes like closer shot grouping but it does seem like for the most part it's cosmetic.

I've not noticed a single difference. I'd say it's probably more for aesthetic purposes.

It's ok. Game is more fun when you go in lethal. No worrying about people waking up or what you're going to do with all that pesky C4 you have lying around.
Amazing action game.
Yeah, when you're sieged in a house, you are basically dead unless you call an airstrike (and even that could take too long). They smoke you out with granates, changing surpressing fire and actual breaches. It's also amazing how they generally react to usual things and report to HQ, even if they only investigate something. And when you knock them out after they informed HQ that they were looking at something suspicious, HQ will phone in at some point and ask if everything is okay and if the soldiers doesn't answer they will go into alert and send nearby guards to his last known position.

Anyone else purposely looking away from the credits that play at the start of each mission?
Why do they insist on ruining surprises?

Side ops 52. The 2nd wandering mother base soldier. What. The. Fuck.
Dude can't be tranqed and it is impossible to sneak up on him. How do you do this.

Let him see you in a box, he'll walk right up to it and you can CQC him
EDIT: Also, if you've seen the hidden scene on the medical platform, play 'Love Deterrence' from your iDroid (use the cassette controls to turn the speaker on so he can hear it) and he'll also come right to you and let you extract him
Ok, so how do I go back to the ACC or MB after I start a mission? The options the game gives you after you die are "checkpoint, restart mission, and go to title menu", the same options it gives you if you press the pause button ingame. The title menu only offers "continue", and it puts you right back at the mission. If I exit the mission, it counts as a "death" and the game shows me the same options. The iDroid also doesn't have this option, apparently.

Is the checkpoint system on ps4 broken? I'm on mission 3, and it saved as I approached the mission compound (1am), and it saved again when the game clock reached 6am in the morning, but when I died it restarted me at the beginning of the compound again!!!!
Wasted a half-hour !!!!

Yeah, those are a pretty terrible design decision. I don't know what Kojima thought that would do for us.
This is the one time where you should think inside the box.

Most wandering soldiers can be insta spotted by DD and then kept busy.
A single tranq headshot will get him.
Or
you can get in your box and let him see it.
Or
play Paz's humming tape near him with the speaker.

i never used the box, barely used it in the game overall. whenever i go on one of those wandering mother base soldier missions i just equip a non lethal AR and just fire a whole clip at them.
Oh, the stories about checkpoint problems I had with this game...
It's completely broken. I don't know if this a PS4 issue (I played in the PS4 as well), but damn. I feel your pain.
The box is awesome. You can dive out of it and use it as disattraction to draw enemy attention or put posters on them for extra effects.

Haven't had as much time as I'd like to play this, but I just completed the
mission and that was pretty fucking cool. Didn't trigger a single alert the entire way through, which included 2 small outposts and a larger outpost before reaching the area where the actual mission objective was. With every mission this game seems to get better.

Speaking of these W
M
, I feel like I should have unlocked more by now. Can anyone comment:

otherbase soldiers
I'm in Chapter 2 and have completed WMBS 07 side-op, but nothing has unlocked after that. It's been quite a while and I thought they would have started to unlock again. I read that you need to complete mission 35 to start getting them again, but I've done that and nada.
Another open side op in the same area might be overriding it but I don't know what the requirements are exactly.

There is a pin hole reset on the bottom of the DS4 try holding that in with a paperclip till it resyncs may fix your problem
Yeah I think that's the last one I have unlocked as well. I'm only a mission behind you in progress. I think it's more story related to unlock, rather than just a matter of knocking out side ops until more open.

Do you think you could tell me the location of no. 8, and then I can check if there's anything in that area?
Thanks.

That mission is level desing gold. Loved every second of it.
Ah, so enthusiastic. Pritect your face when entering the spoiler thread.
My headcannon is that what the other person was saying to him was just so mind-numbingly dumb that he was completely incapable of speech at the time.
Because I know I was.
The cutscene immediately following is at least good for a laugh.

Post level 25 spoiler
Hey someone who's liking the story! Hope I'm like you when reaching that mission.
How the hell do I identify who's sick? Do I need to go to Mother Base and check their mouths (which according to Ocelot it's something worth following up) or should I just do level 26?
Hey someone who's liking the story! Hope I'm like you when reaching that mission.
You may not like it there
Never mind then, I'm guessing they're being negative about it?
I'll stay here, then.
If this is your opinion, you won't find too much company there.
There is a way to pick the right people, listen closely to the tapes. You can also just rush the story.
You need to finish chapter 29.

3 most satisfying sounds in the game for me so far
- knocking someone's helmet off with a high power rifle
- pelting someone with a riot gun's plastic bullets
- six million dollar man charge punching a sheep
when you lure 3 guys with a thrown empty ammo magazine and zap them with the stun arm, probably up there too but i think that's less for the sound effect and just more for the gameplay execution of a plan haha
i'm about 25 hours in now I guess, mostly just in Afghanistan, and really loving the free roam gameplay

Oh, and how. In fact there are few things are not hated in that thread.
Hey, don't you think that's too spoilery? Some people maybe want to solve it themselves. Maybe limit to tips unless directly asked.

*Facepalm* Of course,
language is one of the important themes in the game, and the knife scene should have made me think about it more.
Thanks!
I have a mixed opinion on it, but I don't really mind it, if people are being pissy in the spoilers thread, then I'd rather not go there.
Hey man, I'm mixed/impartial/ok about it too and I still get to have my fun in that thread
But yeah, it's not the most positive thread right now either and also, you yourself would be surprised by what you find there info wise.
I think most people now are just shaking their head at some of the decisions after cooling down and
lamenting that the game isn't finished
Did a quick search online and apparently I really can't get back to MB after I started mission 45. If that really is the case, I don't even know how to begin my complaints.
Thankfully I can restart the mission and there's a quiet area to wait for some upgrades and development, so I'll give it one more shot with a different RL as soon as it's complete.
But good god.
