was reading earlier how this game is designed so you don't get punished for killing unlike previous MGS

it's easy to get S rank even if you kill a bunch so long as you make up for it by finishing the mission fast

tbh I find it just as satisfying to murder everybody without being found

[Firenze]

any of you lads found any rare animals to extract? I always keep my eyes out but rarely see anything new outside of side ops specifically for them

went to the animal enclosure on MB area

just like going to a real zoo

want the trophy for extracting every species

[RealGunner]

Where is the animal enclosure area lol? nearly all part of my MB is closed for construction ffs


I rescued a hedgehog but not sure if thats rare

bats are normal and gerbils

[RealGunner]

ffs only 6% completion rate despite spending nearly 20 hours on it

[RealGunner]

That 'where do bees live' mission (or something)

Spoiler:

[Firenze]

that mission is GOAT

you're definitely right about me not being able to appreciate the story as much (should have been obvious)

was just reading up about the character

Spoiler:

who appeared in this, thinking he was a new character lol

seems like everything comes full circle in this game and where it fills in a lot of the history of the series all these characters that are important in the future have cameos that I'm sure fans love but it has no impact on me, thankfully I'm enjoying the story so far although we haven't really gotten much of it since it's mostly building up MB so far, gameplay is great though

[Firenze]

and I don't connect to online when I'm playing this

heard your FOB base gets attacked all the time and the loading times go from instant to like 20 seconds smh

[RealGunner]

Kojima did say he is going to try and wrap every character from Big boss' side of story including solidus,liquid and solid. So I guess nearly every character alive from snake eater and peace walker will be in it or mentioned at least.

Considering this is THE last MGS ever, he wouldn't leave any plot holes. So you should have read up on it before ffs.

I think the main story in this one will start appearing more and more as you reach towards the end. Basically everyone knows that big boss was the best solider to live and that he was a hero. What people don't know is how he turned from the biggest hero to the biggest villain. Which should be towards the end.


Think your base could get attacked in peace walker as well. I won't go online till i have built a solid defence.

I read most of the plot tbh, I have a good enough understanding of the story but obviously nowhere near that of someone who played the other games. Either way I love the plot twists in this ffs. Only a Japanese mind could come up with a crazy story like MGS.

I will say though, I always heard boss fights in MGS were GOAT But I'm on mission 27 and they've mostly been 'events' rather than legit fights so far. Although there is one battle that you'll find yourself in soon RG. Loved that. Don't think I'm even halfway through the story missions yet though so maybe they'll come eventually.

regarding that mission taking forever I remember it being that way for me too, some of them seem to be like that, I always land at the default zone..if it's far away that usually means there are a lot of optional objective littered between, so I always stop by every base along the way.

[RealGunner]

You noticed how heavily the game is inspired by manga/animes lol? Even the dialogues are what you would find in most animes.


I am really looking forward to the final boss fight. Too many people have hyped me up.



btw you noticed how enemies adapt to you? If you start going for a lot of headshots. Soon some pleb will be talking to the other guy that "they have ordered shipments for helmets" lol. Then a lot of soldiers will be wearing helmets then on

[RealGunner]

Yeah you can upgrade your binocular (forgot the name) to analyze each soldier's ranks


Also i just watched this



Man the feels

F*ck Konami

just finished the mission myself, wasn't that difficult just used some really cheap tactics (the boss not me) that 1 hit kill ffs after 15 mins whittling it down

[Firenze]

dat satisfying cutscene somewhat made a comedy by me wearing a chicken hat in it because I died so much during the mission

[Firenze]
