Some stories from last night (~150 hours in):
Used D-Walker's
to make short work of an entire late game tank unit in Mfinda Oilfield, with me laughing the whole time from the cliffs above. But left over was the helicoptor, which even my antimaterial sniper rifle would struggle with as it was one of the red, missile-loaded armour plated ones.
I was about to call in a missile launcher but the high costs put me off as I was saving for a development item. Instead, I decided to stick it out with my current loadout to see how far I could get. I softened it up for a few seconds with an anti-air gun in the oilfield but the heli made short work of that plan. What followed was a ten minutes battle of cat and mouse as I snuck around the oilfield taking potshots then running back into hiding. The slightest burst of fire would end me (I was only wearing animal print pants for the lols) so every shot was a heartpounding feat of bravery. By the time it finally spun into the ground, I was exhausted and down to my last shot.
I basically made my own, ludicrously intense boss battle.
For the next tank unit mission I wanted the opposite experience, so I equipped the
and a missile launcher, hopped on d-horse with dreams of going full rambo.
Unfortunately, the unit still made short work of me. All the ammo in the world doesn't protect you from being one-shotted by red tanks.
Again, determined to make use with what I had, I decided to see if I could take out the whole unit (sans helicoptor) only using C4.
Of course, my whole plan would go to shit if I was spotted, so I had to sneak up to every sniper, every tank and plant C4 in the route of the patrol without being seen. Finally, I got to a high spot and mashed triangle to a beautiful chain reaction of explosions across the map.
Galloped away on D-Horse and missiled the heli on the way out for one final, glorious explosion. Mission complete!
TL;DR: MGSV more than any other game in the series allows you to make your own fun and your own challenges. If you've forgotten how to actually
play like you're a five year old in your toybox then it could be a very boring game for you. I'm always discovering new toys and I'm still excited every time I deploy.
