Anyone know if u need to keep extracting fixed emplacements for ur base, I've taking quite a few lmgs and a few aa but seem to be loads more at my base.

Anyone know a way how not to go through 5 pages of information whenever the games started in online mode?

Edit I think if you keep extracting them you get more money for them, or at least that what I read somewhere.

I think you just have to deal with the online info everytime, I would imagine a lot of the info will disappear when they fix the servers.

As for the emplacements, yes they are definitely worth extracting. 4k profit for a mortar, 7k for a machine gun and 15k for an Aa gun

The target practice side op on the R&D platform is rather annoying!

I'm thinking of youtubing a video for it. I tryied it a second time and had 8 left but navigation is a bit of a pain, shame you can't use the chopper and gatling gun.

I did use a video for it...problem is, where there's one on the video it's not there for me. 34/35 and can't do anything about it :mad:

20% complete. And loads of stuff left to do. I love this game

got the gunsmith and wow. Mixing up sniper parts to make an uber sniper rifle is awesome! Same with the pistols and assault rifles

can't wait to unlock some more weapons to see what other combos work well

Yeah, there are a lot of hidden ones. All the other platforms are MUCH easier than the R&D one too, quite bizarre in the difference actually imo :\

Just finished chapter 1 today, was in a rage thinking WTF that's the end?!

sc(+)pe · 6 Sep 2015 at 23:36

Is there any reason why Big Boss barely talks?

Kiefer Sutherland was paid by the word spoken.

(That might not be true)

If you listen to the tapes that is where most of his dialogue is, as well as a lot of back story and additional plot details.

Sunk 30 hours into this and only 20% complete, just got my first silenced sniper rifle and switched from non-lethal to silent assassin mode

Picked this up on Friday afternoon, about 12hrs on it and Holy ****!!! this is the most amazing single player game I've played in a long time.
lvl'd up the Personal Coms & uplift balloons along with a few other things. Plus got a sniper rifle now.
Enjoying the Sub missions so taking my time on the main plot, about 12hrs and 3% so far.

Found the little dog and uplifted him...how do you interact with him and other people when up on the motherbase?
Struggling to get my head around the whole Motherbase side of the game tbh

The mother base isn't really fleshed out very well, so your interactions with everything on it are limited. Don't worry about interacting with the dog as you will do that as part of the story but its a good idea to show your face to the troops to keep morale up

Thanks, yeah have been punching, choke holding and throwing them to bring up the "morale boosted" message.
