When was this announced? Just Now?
I don't see anywhere to pre-order it yet. Though to be fair I would probably just get the season pass. I'm just more curious about this since it came out of nowhere. Also apparently you have to be level 30 to play the DLC, can't recall what level I got to. If i'm too low, I guess I can just play some more or just use a console command. These are physical items for the expansion.
Only thing I have found is that it will be 20 dollars for this box.

Everything about it looks great, but I'm still holding out some slim hope that they'll change the music back to the original DannyB soundtrack or something similar.
Is this valid from Steam?
I mean, if I preorder the season pass, I'll get those additional gwent cards?
EDIT: Or...those items are physical?
EDIT 2: There's also a discount on GOG, 15% off, but for Heart Stone only, not the season pass.
I thought they gonna have card at HearthStone <_<

This is all physical stuff. I guess they want to try and get more money from the season pass. Since I would guess this expansion and the next will both have a limited edition for 20 each. Which if you bought both would be 15 dollars more than just buying the regular season pass.
Bah, I don't need real gwent cards, also the expansion should be GOG only if I buy it physical. I just want a 15% off on season pass on Steam...and I hope to be able to finish MGSV for October, lol.

Why would you want collector's edition gaudy stuff.

I don't but i'm sure some people here want those physical gwent decks.

Same, loved it on 360. Looked back, it turns out it was the 5th game I got on steam, a boxed copy no less!

FROM, please give me a deal on SotFS soon. Went Sorcery in DS and it was OP as fuck. Went full STR in DS2 and it was fun, but after making it to NG+ it was basically press Attack to Awesome. Tried respecing, but wasn't far enough to imbue weapons yet.

Finally Regina gets a crossover with Witcher 3 no less.
something I noticed about Be Mine bundles, it started with 6 games, rose steadily until reached 13 games before X and stayed there for some time, then it started to fall, 10 games in BM15, 9 in BM20 and we are back to were we started, full circle. So what's next? A new cycle or the end of it all. To illustrate it better, here
BM1 - 6 games
BM5 - 9 games
BMX - 13 games
BM15 - 10 games
BM20 - 9 games
BM24 - 6 games
amazing!
we do?

Expansion Pass is £20 but first DLC is £7?
Both GOG prices.
Seems odd, unless 2nd DLC is much bigger? =/

Could it be that they focus too much on the Greenlight bundles? Before they had them the main BM bundles had more games and also higher quality of games, now it seems to be crappy games

That might be the case, will be interesting to see.
Not really. The current BeMine is better than many of the first 10 BeMines.
I'm too lazy to check thoroughly, but dropping in game numbers per bundle (every, not only BM) is very much related to lower amount of bonuses, especially game bonuses.
that's not true
It's very, very true. The current BeMine is pretty good.
you can't be serious
here is be mine 5 for comparison

What was the last bundle you didn't think was good though? Not everyone is looking exclusively for +1s. BM2 for example had: The Baconing, Plain Sight, Madballs in Babo: Invasion, Beat Hazard, Sol Survivor and Killing Floor. Killing Floor, Beat Hazard and Baconing! Many of the others had at least one bigger game too.

Stupid question, but is there anyway to pick up and drop off in the Helicopter in MGS w/o having to exit map and redeploy?
D-Horse is awesome and all, but when I have two side ops on each side of the map...traversing is kind of a pain. I've just been ending the mission and redeploying. Which is still kind of a pain.

You are probably thinking the old bundles suck because they are old and many games are rebundled in other bundles, while the newer ones don't have games that have been in other bundles.
The latest BM bundle is indeed very bad
Ya could use the postal fast travelling system with the box delivery stations.

I keep seeing this but i'm not too sure how it works. Please explain, brah.
There are orange platforms in every bigger camp with a shield and a invoice paper. Take it and then you can travel to from other package stations. You just put yourself into box and then push "E" then you can quicktravel in that box to any other package station where you took the invoice. Like on motherbase.

There are little postal truck delivery drop-off platforms at every major "city" and base. You can sit on one with your cardboard box just like back at Mother Base, hold the button whenever the prompt appears and select any place you're registered to be delivered to. In order to register, you need to snag the shipping manifest from the sign by the post.
Do that, and you can fast travel across the map. It won't get you straight to the smaller encampments, but it can help save you a ton of time.

jeez, i have 24 hours into the game and i've never seen that platform.
I guess i need to keep an eye out for those, especially since i've been rolling with DD lately so i've been taking some long ass runs

Ozium has played MGSV for 100hrs. He's the hero SteamGAF needs.
Word, I just found out about this over the weekend. There should have been an in-game scene explaining it; going in the chopper every time to "fast travel" was a pain in the ass.
no wonder he doesn't even post, no time for this foolishness
I said it's better than many of the first 10 and you only show one of the bundles? I fail to see how that proves me wrong.
But it wasn't anything to do with +1s. This bundle has legitimate good games on it.
Nah. Its good.

I thought Shani is in the second expansion?
A lot of useful stuff in the loading screen.
The true hero that SteamGAF needs is a flamethrower.
About right. Learnt how to sort out in fighting at Mother Base thanks to a loading screen tip.

Could you tell me why it is so good?
Weren't you also insisting that RPG maker HB is awesome when nobody agreed?

Yeah I just found my first one on the weekend about 30 hours in.
Ah the loading times are quick enough on an SSD that I haven't been reading those. I'll try to read a couple before moving on. I still would have preferred Ocelot saying something about it, though.
No one in particular just certain posting habits (some of which are mine own too).
So agear?Walker
Funnily I was getting a few issues where some chumps I Fultoned back didn't play nice with the other kids I had captured against their own free will (I can't imagine why) but the solution was fairly simple though only explained in a loading screen tip.

She seems to be in this one or both.

You made a possible mistake in your route, sir... I did sort of the same.
I took out Throne Watcher/Defender (not even Nashandra, I warped out) and was prevented for triggering the new optional end boss that I fought 80 times as a summon. :\
