Nice. That one's tough. Took me a little while to S rank. Felt good.

"You took out the anti air radar?"
Not a spoiler, you just weren't paying enough attention during the prologue.

He discovered/got them from The End's carcass.

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised. I knew going in that I couldn't take it on with my usual route from previous playthroughs. Tried something new and it worked.
She only hums when she's locked on to a target
She does that to let you know she has someone in her sights. It just fades away for me.

I didn't do it that way, but that's normal. If you
survive for 10 minutes, it starts to rain.
46 is the last story mission (i.e. not a repeat at harder difficulty). Just do some side ops until it unlocks for you.
There are some original missions, and the repeats are all optional. You can just do side ops you haven't done yet, go back to mother base occasionally, to trigger the story scenes, important side ops (the yellow ones) and the actual new story missions.

Miller gets so sassy, and it's annoying.
"Oh, you're bringing HIM along?"
Like, dude! I'm building an army. You can't keep me all to yourself.
I did it like this:
Lured him torwards the little pool until he was standing at the edge, sprinted torwards a jeep that was standing there and just ran him over so he fell into the water.
Same here, S ranked without being noticed. Cool feeling!
If it bothers you that much, yes.
Or just wait until you have the Cover Me command and then the outpost will fall in seconds.
Okay, thanks. Will leveling up Quiet benefit the story later in the game? I kinda prefer the dog to be honest.

Yep. I haven't finished Chapter 2 yet but he seems to be part of the scientist forced to serve the enemy archetype, despite Huey being in the game as well (although a game having two scientists is not unheard of either, like Madnar and Kio Marv in the same game, or Sokolov and Granin).
Chapter 2
Not that I know of.
These are some cool vids. Didn't even consider traveling with Fulton that's awesome.

As far as I know, here's how you can beat him.
- Water Gun takes 50 shots to stun him, then he can be fultoned (use the wormhole so you won't have to deal with Mantis).
- Destroying the water towers when he's close to them will stun him.
- Ramming him with the jeep and driving it off the cliff.
- Knocking him into the water pit near the gas tank.
- And of course, you can survive long enough till the rain appears.

What how?!
In the iDroid under buddy support --> change equipment.
In one mission I had Quiet change her non-lethal rifle to the Brennan to take out a helo.

I mentioned this before but you can also
pull him into the water with the hand of jehuty
Can you not post images like that in the general thread? Jesus.
Damn, never even noticed that! I usually just grenade shot when a chopper is around ( even works with her tranq rifle)In the iDroid under buddy support --> change equipment.

Listened to lots of tapes actually, it appears I didn't catch that part.
And...uh... whatever Hideo
In other news, I just completed the game, so I'm off to the other thread !
I didn't have to beat mission 45, in fact it hasn't even appeared yet.
Yeah it fucking sucks. People are just really inconsiderate when they think most have finished the game. I am only on Mission 19.

I can build nukes now or get rid of them. Is there a difference if you use them or not? Or rather build them?
OK this makes the water pistol actually have a use against enemies but only if they're facing you and if you're close enough lol.
Good to know!
I wonder if you blow up a power line and then spray water at their eyes if the power line will electrocute them as though they're in the rain? Lol.

If MGSV show anything interesting, it's the vast differences in what people seem to perceive as pointless busy work. Sneaking into villages I've snuck into before to grab some mook or item, or blow something up multiple times isn't fun to me after a while. Waiting for the helicopter, even with the pretty flowers for picking, getting into the helicopter and waiting for it to take off, isn't fun.
Even if the core gameplay is solid, it doesn't matter if the tasks I'm doing in that world aren't fulfilling.

The water pistol is basically a glorified magazine with the capability of taking out equipment at the cost of losing your handgun slot. I think you have to upgrade it to make it better at manipulating the guards than the magazine (I haven't tried the first upgrade yet, I think I'm gonna do that the next time I play).
Just a few of the cracks that start to show after you play this game for a while.
When you have to go make the game interact with you, instead of the other way around. The game can get pretty stale real fast.

I've actually appreciated the repetition on offer in the open world and its outposts, bases and side ops, because it gives you plenty of opportunity to experiment. Experiment with equipment, with tactics, with approaches, and experimenting to see AI reactions and how you can use those to your advantage. Then when you select the next story mission, which may throw in some twists and surprises you're better prepared because you've practiced and you might even know the mission area well.
And as you learn each area, your focus begins to narrow. The more you know each location, the more entrances and exits you know, the quicker they are to recon, and to infiltrate, so you put more of your energy directly into the objectives and less into figuring out the basics.
The worst side-ops, IMO, are the Puppet Soldiers and Tanks/Armored Vehicle Units. The former are so braindead easy and boring to do (and give you easy high stat soldiers) and the latter are just annoying to do if they have a Gunship in it -- otherwise, you have to slowly sneak and fulton the vehicles (unless you use D-Walker with the F.Ballista but even that's dicey because of the aforementioned gunships...) if there are good soldiers around you want.
And they really did not need to have both of those types of side-ops when the strat for both is literally the same just that the tanks are more deadly if you get caught and/or are ill-prepared. Especially not 14 of each. Good god.
