Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain |OT2| A Franchise Robbed Of Its Future

xxracerxx

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.
What's the significance of Master Certificates? I think I just unlocked a hidden upgrade to the fulton? What does this upgrade do?

I think Certificates are just given when you use something enough. I have two so far, they are:

Marking
and
Fulton
.

The one you and I have unlocks two more upgrade options, faster response time and more ammo.

So (around mission 38 question),
I rescued the 5 missing child soldiers that escaped from MB a while ago. Ocelot said that Eli wanted to talk to Big Boss but it hasn't happened yet. Do I have to do something or just keep playing story missions? I'm currently on 38.

Does anyone know?

Ok so how do I
get all this blood off me
at the end? Something to do with "Demon Points" or something?

Yeah, do stuff like visiting the animal platform, rescuing people, and disarming nukes if you're at that part.

I definitely think the blood was a big mistake, the horn is fine, but KojiPro shouldn't punish people who go on the offensive like that.

A couple of questions now that I've finished mission 46:

There were still a few scenes from trailers I never saw in the game, most notably the scene of Snake in Africa with all the burned/dead bodies around him from the E3 2014 trailer and the scene on Mother Base of the soldiers in a knife fight. I guess those were cut, or did I somehow miss them?

Also I had trouble understanding what was going on in the post-credit stinger between Miller and Ocelot. Was Miller mad at Big Boss because he wouldn't be able to be a part of his true Outer Heaven or something?

Just beat the game, finally, FINALLY after all these years of waiting for the games release, and for avoiding spoiler postings on the internet. Love every minute about this game. I'll say I really enjoyed the ending/plot twist. GOTY for me!

Was getting caught part of your plan?

Come play my lord
 
Wait...
so you've never seen Paz and you've already beaten the game, lol

Check the upper deck of the Med platform for a door with a blue light and be sure to do those wandering motherbase soldiers side ops

Well I mean 99% of motherbases doors don't work so yeah. Also for the second part of the sentence, why? Is there more story?
 
I spent two hours trying to get a transportation specialist on mission 15 , Fultoned everyone man and still no luck wtffffffffffffffff. What the fuck man I need this bitch.
 
Oh man misson 20 was pretty spooky
It's was raining at night, and I found the P.T. radio. That with the mist and the bloody medical area made for some great atmosphere.
 
Finished mission 29. Holy shit, first time I really see why there is D-Walker.

Also, a cutscene question in this mission

is it affected by who is your buddy? I remember seeing it in the trailers, and Snake was carrying Quiet. I didn't use her because I'm not so sure if the bug is really fixed, and went with D-Walker instead since there would be skulls and I don't want D-Dog to be hurt by them.

So if I'm with Quiet I will get Snake carrying her out of the chopper, or D-Dog in his case?

Snake carrying Quiet is an entirely different thing altogether but yes, she does do her own thing in the scenes if you bring her to 29.
 
So what happens exactly when you fulton soldiers while your MB units are full? It doesn't seem like they ever go to the waiting room. Do I just lose them?
 
So does equippable by security staff mean you can't use it yourself? I recently researched the Renov tranq sniper rifle and can't supply drop it/choose it in loadouts, just has a red slash box over it :(
 
I seem to have found a bug in Shago Kallai. When I go there for a side op or general wandering all the spotlights appear to be off but they're still active and will spot me despite me not being able to see them. If I mount the lights I can flick them on and off but no light appears on the ground. This only happens in that one outpost. If I go there to replay mission 3 it appears they work. (I tried breaking them to see if they'd get reset and fixed and the one I missed projected fine.) The guard who man's the spotlight built into the main building, overlooking the anti-air radar, will also occasionally run into the middle of the desert and stand completely still staring toward my landing zone, outside the base.

I recently blew up the power supply (which was always turned off before I got there and didn't have the blue light) I'm terrified that this could spread and it makes infiltrating Kallai really awkward. Here's where everyone ignores me because I'm playing the Xbox 360 version but everything else has worked fine up until now. Has anyone else experienced something similar? Is there a way to fix it?

I don't get the yellow mission marker on my base. (Some development spoilers)

After Huey starts building the Metal Gear. There's a yellow mission marker on my map that says "train" but anytime I go in there there's nothing to do.

PSA: To get the Ground Zeroes Raiden uniform that was in Ground Zeroes and featured in Ground Zeroes promotional material you don't need to S rank the Extreme, Subsistence, and Total Stealth missions. Just the other 40ish.

What's the Butterfly Emblem do? I heard a lot of chatter about it.

Keeps Quiet from leaving. If you take it off when you're roughly in the 40s she will leave wherein you do a Side Op that leads to Mission 45. Otherwise if you keep it on she stays and that side op/mission never show up.

Hmm. I guess I'll
keep her until I've completed everything else and then let her leave
Thanks for the heads up.
 
so the DDogs on the original MB platform... are those guys actually tied or representative of actual soldiers in your iDruid unit list?

it's always the same 4 guys, same faces and same stats... they're even in the cutscenes like this one

(just a small MB scene with Ocelot around Mission 12-16)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=re2RMqmJU-Q

was thinking, maybe they are tied to the default DDogs? i wonder if every new game starts with the same default soldiers, same faces and code names... sort of like how certain missions always give you komodo dragon, jackal, silent harrier, etc


speaking of Mother Base and the Diamond Dogs.... does MGS V put anyone else in the mood for XCOM? :p I'm in such a mood for base and unit management thanks to Ocelot, Miller, and Big Boss now

About 60 hours into the game. I haven't gotten infiltrated once-- no resources taken, no nothing, Could it be because I don't have PSplus? God, it would suck if I can't get that one FOB trophy be ause I can't play multiplayer.

Just finished chapter 1 Yesterday.
the boss fight took me long enough and some retries (like 10) but i got an S rank.
damn that shit was intense. One of the best boss fights in the series, imho. Felt like, actually a bit better, the Rex fight in MGS1.
Loved the game this far.
I also started chapter 2 and
did a few missions. Looks like i'm about 6-7 main missions from the end. Not bothering with extreme missions. I just want the game to progress

WTF is going on. I got 4 elite soldiers (2 A+ and 2 A++) so I accepted them and wanted to see their stats, but..........! They were GONE!

How is this possibel guys? My MB was almost full but one would expect that higher ranks replace the lower ranks.

How does this work :(
