So im completely lost with all the 'Staff' management in Mother Base....in fact i hardly spend any time at mother base. Is it perfectly ok to just use the auto arrange option for sorting your staff members out or will i regret it later on in the game??. I have also noticed there is a number next to the staff menu, which i think usually indicates that there is something new for that menu, but when i go into the staff menu i cant see anything that needs my attention!?

Because Zone of the Enders or something. There is a similar mission to get the Wisp arm.
Holy shit, that's ingenious. I didn't even think of doing something like that. When I redo this mission, I'll be using this tactic to make my life infinitely easier.
For most part, don't worry about it. Maybe check in, sort each division by skill and get rid of the ones with the trouble maker skill to avoid having your staff getting into fights but you'll be fine letting it auto assign staff. It wont be optimized for what you exactly want to do but it's more than good enough.

Very quick question : I saw when connectong that somebody's infiltration of my FOB failed... And now I have a revenge wormhole. I I try a revenge, and fail, will he have ANOTHER revenge tunel ?
Meaning : can I get "safe revenge" or will my FOB be in danger if I lose ?

You don't, they get unveiled after you complete a mission once.

Yeah You need to get to the goal without getting spotted I think. But you're at risk from randoms anyway so it doesn't matter too much.

So two players can get multiple successive revenge against each other if they are always spotted during invasion ?

This is the real "Cycle of Revenge" that Kojima was talking about.

Yeah I am in a revenge cycle of my own with one particular guy, usually someone comes to defend it which makes it super diffixult.

Also, I developed the Combat Suit lvl4 or something, it says that it can be equipped by security members... where can I equip it to security staff? I only see the option for lethal / non lethal...
So I'm very slowly chipping away at the missions. Had just started mission 9
I was crushing it. Kaz was singing my praises, tell me this is why I'm a legend. I finish the mission, at what I believe to be perfectly, but then they tell me the
So I figure by this point, since they said the main mission was completed, I'm good. Games saved. So I decide, why not, lets blow up the rest of the shit for some extra cash. On the last tank, as it's about to explode, it kills me. I'm like, ah man, I have redo this last bit of this mission again, no big deal. Game reloads, I'm back at the start of the mission.
Promptly shut off PS4, cursed Kojima and went to bed.
blow up the enemy transports in 15 minutes
Russians have sent a gunship and tanks for me.

So far the worst mission of the game I've played. Reminds me of the old PS2 GTA games. Checkpoints? Screw you!
yea, I wonder if their gear is just automatic or randomized.

Side op #144 spoiler -
I'm sure bringing this won't lead to anything bad happening on Mother Base...
Problem is many of the cutscenes in Chapter 2 don't tell a cohesive narrative and rather they take a scattershot approach in which many cases don't pay off.
This has happened to me with two games before, but it may not be the same issue.
PS4 yeah? Basically go to the game on the dash. Scroll down. Keep scrolling down. At the bottom there will hopefully be a segment for DLCs. Select then and you should be able to redownload them.
Otherwise you might need to make an American PSN account (easy).
45 is a bit of a bastard, watch out. Play it safe and bring lots of firepower. Hide behind cover 100% of the time.

On mission 32 (?), [Extreme] Traitors' Caravan
how do I defeat the skull unit? I tried using RPGs, shotguns, machine guns and nothing does serious damage against the skull unit. What works?

I'm at the exact same point. I've loved every minute but I'm prepared for a shit ending.
Lower your expectations as much as you can and you'll like it.
That's what happened to me at least. I really enjoyed all of it.

I'm currently playing through MGSV with my partner sat here, we're upto
and have done the first mission there.
Does anyone have a list of main missions, ones that are story related and ones that are just re-hashes of the same place but do X instead of Y.
Levels like
are what I'd call story missions VS
Shes not around all the time so i want to save some missions for when shes there and some for when shes not and i can just go through them

The story is becoming more and more cheesy/stupid. And I like it. I should really play MGS 2 some day, maybe that's a game for me.
When you can, play 1-3 in a row. They're all pretty short save the story, which can take as long as you want depending on how much you like codecs. Something as stupid as living on through an arm getting validated through characters in another makes it all worth it.

PSA In case some people don't visit the FOB thread:
If you're still going through the early story but you already know that you do not want to participate in FOB infiltration (in fear of having your stuff stolen etc., not want to deal with online mp yet etc.) until you do, there is a way to get all the benefits from FOB (base expansion, more units, resources etc.) w/o dealing with human players.
The trick is to be never online while in the ACC (helicopter). Everywhere else is fine (you can manually login/logout in the pause menu).
Spoiler for from which Mission on you have to do this:
This will prevent triggering the infiltration FOB tutorial until you do decide to do it (e.g. after the story or when you feel like your base would be too hard to successfully infiltrate for most players).
This allows you to still develop the FOB (more room for soldiers and higher unit ranks!) and security devices, gain additional resources and even participate in the virtual PF rank matches (and as you don't have to worry about spending actual money as no real players can invade you, that means that you can crank up your FOB defense to max AFAIK to gain an advantage).
You just won't be able to infiltrate other players, help protect the base of other players and of course you can't get infiltrated yourself.

Research the Brennan and Sinful Butterfly.
Set Quiet to "COVER ME." Pop them when their armor comes off.
Thank me later.
Started playing the game and have a few questions:
1- What is the easiest way to identify all the side objectives? I try to scout every place before I go in and yet it doesn't show me the side objectives.
2- I'm still at the beginning (episode 6) so is level C good for soldiers to take them to the mother base or should I take only B and higher?
3- Mother base tutorial is pretty useless and doesn't teach you many things. I heard I can send soldiers on missions to bring more soldiers and resources to the mother base how can I do that?

somebody willing to share some info?
iam on the mission traitors caravan
tried it at least 20 times and i still cant do anything.
first time i failed to see where the van is
second time the tanks killed me
third time when i got fulton for vehicles the ghosts kill me
and since then no progress.
whereever and whenever i try to get away with the van they fucking kill me.
sometimes there is some sort of stone or something flying it me, but its really rare so iam not sure what this is about.
