Aaaand more fuckery regarding the FOBs.

Dawg said:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the amount of FOBs also seem to influence how many simultaneous missions you can send your motherbase soldiers on.

For example, I have two missions pending but I can't start a third one because the game tells me I need additional FOBs to send out more units. Not sure if this is related.

Thanks, Konami.

There's just so much bad news around thus game for me right now, that even if I play it before January (when MGO crops up for PC) I probably wouldn't vote it my GOTY.


Imo, even with a log in bonus it's stupid. People will end up paying for that shit, the same way they pay for GTA V credit, because impatience.

Can't remember what the score with FOBs was exactly (you get the first free then the rest you have to grind the coins in game or you have to buy Konami's Disney dollars if you want more?) but here's what each FOBs price in the Gamescom demo.

Sooo... 8,100 MB Coins by my count meaning $89.95 to get the rest if one if free. Wonder if they are available in game from gameplay or login bonuses? Can't believe that Konami hasn't even mentioned it yet, was always going to cause a stink but at least try to get the first word out because now they're going to be on the back foot from the off.

I posted days ago some coins are rewarded for "daily login", what does this means, I don't know.
But at this point I'm pretty sure this situation is fucked up, and they'll reward you with one coin each day, making impossible "buy" for free those Fobs.

This is really disgusting, anyway.

And another disgusting thing is that all those reviews floating around don't consider micotransactions at ALL.

I could see myself maybe getting a second FOB if the price was right ($5 or so) but that's just too much, I wonder if Cheat Engine works for "acquiring" KonamiBux™?

I'm pretty sure Konami implemented some kind of protection system in order to avoid people cheating the hell out of MB coins.

I'm considering delaying my playthrough of The Phantom Pain until November when I got the Elite controller in my hand. Could feel so swell.

Then you're right. Funstock it is. I'd try GMG first, either way? No real harm.
Click to expand...

Yes, tried it but MADMAX-SAVE50-MADMAX isn't working, only MADMAX-SAVE40-MADMAX.
At Funstock I can even change the store currency to € so no extra cost with currency exchange at PayPal or Creditcard. It comes down to 24,08€ at Funstock.

Is Mad Max unlocked yet? Or will it be unlocked in 3 hours with the store update?
Click to expand...

According to the store page it's not displayed as unlocked. But I'm not sure.

There was one review that mentioned concerns over the microtransaction implications based on their play time, but because the whole network wasn't functioning during the review event, they couldn't see how much the coins would cost. GAF/The Internet was originally upset, then heel-turned and said "Why would they hate on this without all the info, they must be wrong!"

Well. There it is.

Konami has mentioned several times that the business model is meant for those that don't have the time to earn all of the unlocks in game.
