Mission 31 was impressive at first, at the 5th try, now, it is just infuriating.
Well, I don't like that thread either, it's also rather judgemental and aggressive. But I don't think the mere notion that the game is missing something is a spoiler.
More story than gameplay. There is gameplay missing, but it's okay. The game is solid as it is. But the real atrocity is the missing story that ia essential, both for V and for the whole franchise.
D-Horse, meet me at the rendezvous point asap.
D-Horse, are you even trained to drive that thing?
I sure hope you know what you're doing D-Horse.
Do it! (Defacate)
I actually like that. Sometimes I don't know what happened and it'a good to be teminded that I've been hit by, I've been struck by a smooth criminal.

Is there a trophy for maxing all S.Links ? I don't wanna look because of Spoilers.
No, just individual ones for D-Dog, Quiet and D-Horse
Supply drop to the head. After the first one, you'll need to expose yourself to her (in a manner of speaking) to make her take aim then take a box to the head

thanks, well it's not that hard anyway.
I wouldn't worry too much, it'll be at most one mission if nothing at all.

Daamn, how much damage is that gonna do? How many times will I have to do that?
Someone earlier said you only need to load one kid and can even get an S by only loading one.

Indeed. The structure of this is pretty unique and requires quite a few design elements to be reconfigured to make it work. Making the base-building aspect so central is the really big obvious difference maker; I suspect most designers would have broken it off into a sub-mode completely separate from main story/mission construction, but Kojima has kind of gone the opposite route in breaking up the story into individual episodic chunks.
The credits before and after each mission suggest to me that long-term he may have planned to hand it off to other people to expand on it piecemeal. It may still happen if the underlying mission scripting system is robust and easily extensible.
People have kind of fixated on the number of times Kojima's name crops up in the credits, but his role(s) isn't the only one credited repeatedly.
There's really no reason for 3 separate spoiler threads, two with vaguely insinuating titles, less than a week from release. People wouldn't have read and responded to your rant in the official thread?

About mission 18 :
I can't be the only one who thought for a moment BB really killed the kids.
Trust me, I'm going into a GAF-free bunker once Fallout 4 hits.

Yup, just make sure the other don't die since that ends the mission. I went in, tranqued myself through the camp, put C4 on the AA radar. After I got yhe kids out of the jail I called in a launcher, destroyed the AA via C4 and called the chopper directly into the base. Called a launcher, destroyed the enemy gunship and carried the one kid to safety. The new helicopter landing zone is directly in front of the entry of the jail.
Did I rant? And yes, it was discussed in the spoiler thread, but this issue is too big to be contained with other issues and discussions.
It's literally not an ingame spoiler because the stuff didn't make it ingame. That's the trouble.

So can someone help me out with a quiet question?
i just finished 40 and im wondering where the final point of no return on losing her is. Yes i have the emblem set if that actually does anything but lets say it dosent. How far can i go before shes gone. Id like to know so i can make a usb backup ,then complete the game and then restore the save so we can continue to dual snipe the world.

Agreed. It really makes me want to avoid GAF during big releases from now on. :/
I had the exact same thing happen, lol. I thought it was over and wasn't paying much attention to playing at the time before I realized what was actually happening.

And...yeah. Though it atleast shows Take On Me's superiority.
Get your heroism up. Best way to do that I've found is FOB infiltration, just pick ones with low security and hope they don't join. Then there will be more out in the field and can get S ranks to volunteer if you do their command platform.
Yep, I got confused by that!
Once I loaded the one kid that was necessary for the mission to complete, I should have just left. Instead I attempted to put the other 3 (or 4?) kids on... 
Oh so that is what heroism governs? I have been wondering. So me continuing with side ops and the last few optional difficult missions should also level that up. i#d do FOB infiltrations if there servers were not so fickle.

Are people really that dense to make all those MGSV threads ? Holy shit, please some mods should lock those fucking threads.

You can send your Combat teams out and there should be an option to hit their supply of armor (and helmets, shields etc)
You also may have to mix up your play style a little. If you go for headshot/tranq kills, you will hit troubles with soldiers armored up.
You then have two other options - big and loud (Rockets/Grenades) or a takedown and choke.

Yeah it's weird. Especially two more spoiler heavy threads when there is a perfectly fine spoiler thread. I always just assume these people need the attention they feel they won't get in the other threads.

Move some soldiers around manually, even if only temporarily. Get your level up to 16. Then move them back to where you got them from.
Speaking of heavy cargo, how do i extract via shipping container? I climb on top try to place my balloon in the center of the container but i slip off every time.
Side ops do level, but it's pretty slow. The main missions, even repeating them, would probably be faster.
The servers were a lot better last night. Got at least 30 infiltrations in and the only disconnect I had was my own internet dropping. Sometimes it says I can't connect to the server repeatedly, but closing and restarting the game got it working again.
Not tried, but someone mentioned pressing triangle again to hold on while it was rising.

I am not sure on that one to be honest, never done it myself
I think I've seen a few post suggesting you have to fulton and then press Y (or triangle) to grab on. I think?
Thanks for the Combat Team advice - I'll do that. I'd forgotten about that - only ever used it to get rid of helmets.
And yeah, I play as a tranq guy, like 90% of people, I'd wager. I'm not adverse to going big and loud either, and always carry a launcher for when things get hairy. But there are times when you absolutely can't sneak behind a guy because he's backed up but also can't afford to cause an alert and those are the times I'm struggling with.
But can you confirm that
guns do nothing against the armour?

...and I'm back. About 10 minutes lost.
Ok, I'll give that a shot, I tried last night after clearing out an air field only to slip off, die, and reset everything.
