MGS: Ground Zeroes to Phantom Pain Save Transfer

Finally wrapped up a S-rank run of the hard mode version of GZ's main mission, bringing my completion percentage to 100%! It took quite a while since I wanted to make sure to get all the prisoners in one go while remaining completely undetected, to make a "canon" run of sorts. Still, it took like all day plus a ton of yesterday, glad it's over. I know 100% may not do anything special, but not getting it there before TPP would be weird for me.

Anyone know if people who registered a PS Plus copy of Ground Zeroes get to bypass the special code registration at the Konami website?
 
Just to make sure I have everything working correctly:
I used the save file that was posted here for PC.
The play records say 7 prisoners rescued on normal difficulty and 2 on hard and 0 for the side ops.
I thought there are more. Or is this how it should be? I used the file with all extractions.
 
I own a "Mother Base Staff" DLC from GZ for TPP and whenever I enter this code at PSN I get something like "Code wrong or not valid". Do they still need to unlock those?
 
So is there a list what kind of things in GZ we have to do to unlock a special reward in TPP?

Something like:

All prisoners in GZ => get ... in TPP
All cassetes => get ....
...

And is it possible to import the GZ file at any time or can you import it only if you start a new game in TPP?

There are 15 prisoners and 4 soldiers you need to extract.

Probably. Usual PSN crap attitude. Some DLCs are valid, like Gold DLC from Amazon, some can't be redeemed.
 
Then I don't know what I did wrong. I extracted the files in the 311340\remote folder overwriting the original save files.
Is there any other folder where I have to do something?

Try to disable Steam Cloud and try again, probably the game is loading your saves.

Based on what's been said so far:

- SV-Sneaking Suit (unlocked by uploading any savefile)
- Solid Snake Suit (unlocked by completing Deja Vu and answering the quiz 100% correctly)
- 19 POWs/unique soldiers (unlocked depending on whether they were acquired in GZ, and join your base as recruits over the course of the first 12 missions)
- Gold-Plated Bionic Arm (???)
- 100,000 GNP (???)

No idea about anything else yet.

The option to import is still on the main menu even when you already started to play. I think it's not even possible to import the save when you create a new game.
 
So huh... How do I import my save in The Phantom Pain on PS4?

I uploaded the save yesterday and I don't see anything unlocked.

Edit: Nevermind I had to go back to the main menu. The option wasn't there the first time I boot up the game.

Thanks. I did the first three requirements, would be nice to know the other requirements. Would've been cool if they'd have revealed all things you could unlock a week before TPP release.

Ok thanks, good to know. I hope it's possible to upload the save at any stage. For example, if I didn't meet the requirements for the Gold-Plated Bionic Arm yet, it'd be cool to unlock it in the future, even without starting a new game.
 
So In GZ I completed all missions (not all of them on hard) Only got a few S ranks but did (to my knowledge) get all the extractable POWs and special guards and unlocked all the costumes in GZ. Now that the PC servers are up I downloaded my save (which I uploaded after doing all that stuff) and I only unlocked the GZ sneaking suit. From what I understand I should have got a gold arm and Solid Snake costume?

Should I just re-upload but with that 100% save file?
 
So I did the following:

- Rescued all PoWs and PoIs.
- Got all XOF patches.
- Finished Deja Vu and Jaimi Du in normal and hard.

That's pretty much all I need to do right? Nothing else?

So I uploaded the save, then played the first mission of TPP, tried to import the save but the servers were fried.

I had to go to work, but before going deeper into TPP, there's nothing else I need to do in GZ, right?
 
Eh

Golden what now

Nobody said anything about a golden arm before now. Is anyone missing it or is it just an every gets it kinda gig

Yeah I got 100% completion and I didn't get the golden arm or Solid Snake costume. There must be other requirements.
 
Here's what automatically unlocked for me after replaying a mission.

I think the last one is the bald guy you're supposed to extract. Or maybe it's the dude that spoke to the contact who was supposed to give you the cassette. I extracted him too lol. I extracted everyone in GZ except the rats

I basically did everything in Ground Zeroes except Jamais Vu on hard.
Hope I get more special volunteers
 
Has someone tried using cross region saves on PS4?

I have GZ as a Digital US download and my TPP is a EU physical copy, I uploaded my GZ savegame and will try later to download it in TPP.
 
I own a "Mother Base Staff" DLC from GZ for TPP and whenever I enter this code at PSN I get something like "Code wrong or not valid". Do they still need to unlock those?

So maybe not working yet for PAL/US copies?

Cause I can confirm it works for codes from JPN copies of GZ. As I just did it now.

A friend just told me he can't redeem the GZ voucher and the MGO voucher, he was only able to redeem D1 one.

I can't input my GZ or MGO codes either. CE Day 1 Code was fine.

I'm a bit concerned to be fair. The GZ code has always felt like a farce to me. And MGO? It seems troubled enough as is.
 
Did someone try to import the save from GZ to TPP twice ? Is the option to import still available when you already done it once ?
 
Can't play because of the Phenom II thing, so I guess I'll try to beat the rest of the missions on hard and unlock the final tape.

The GZ code worked for me just fine.

I'm in the US, though.

Yes. You can import again after you've done it once.
 
Good Lord, I feel like I'm rushing for a deadline. I'm collecting tapes now, but I guess I shouldn't worry about them.

Why didn't I finish my paper sooner? I had all weekend!
 
Finally got the patch for GZ (had to redownload the entire game) and now the servers are undergoing maintenance on day one, great.
 
Do you get Kojima randomly in tpp if you had GZ save data? Someone in OT mention he got Kojima as volunteer in mission 4. I'm already mission 6 and still no Kojima. You only need to finish the mission with Kojima in GZ once to get him in TPP right?
 
I have an important question. I don't have access to the internet all the time on my PS4.

I'm about to buy TPP in a few minutes.

So, when I update both GZ and TPP, and upload my GZ save data. Will I be able to download the save data exactly after I boot up TPP on the title screen. Or do I have to play until a certain point to be able to download the save data?
