Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

So, the first entirely retarded thing has happened with the AI. Quite happily stealthing about when one of their trucks runs over their own guy. Que suspicion and the whole base going on alert because they ran over their own guy.

I did the same thing but once you unlock your first FOB you will regret it because it gives you an additional 30 capacity for every area. My advice would be to leave the waiting room alone until you get that far (mission 21/22).

I'm leaving the FOB stuff alone, not sure I like the idea of being raided and losing people so will probably play offline until I have done all of the single player stuff.
 
*** IMPORTANT INFO ***

If you are planning to fully complete the game (all S ranks, etc) then there is a key thing you need to know (mild spoilers):

Once you unlock the butterfly logo (you get this by completing missions using Quiet and letting her do most of the work) make sure you customise your emblem and use it before mission 41.

This prevents her final story from happening which is essential because after that strand completes you lose access to her permanently which will make getting S rank quite a bit harder as she is very useful in some missions.

Once you have done all of the other missions 100% then you can remove the butterfly from your emblem and finish up her missions.

This might get changed in a patch to allow her to rejoin you but thought it was worth sharing.

I think it would lose some of the impact on the story if you could use her again, maybe they might patch her back in for replaying missions though as technically she was available when they were unlocked.

This happened to me but I don't see it as a massive problem to S rank the rest of the remaining missions, especially as D-Dog isn't much less useful if you're playing stealthy. S ranking is generally quite easy if you're fast, the hardest part is doing all of the mission tasks. By the time you have gotten to the point where you want to S rank everything you will have all of the best weapons and items so it will be made a lot easier.
I would actually recommend people don't read rickys/my post if they care at all about spoilers in the story as its really not worth kicking up a fuss over. I would sooner be oblivious to a key event in the story than find missions easier to complete but each to their own.
 
I'm probably way behind on this, but there's something beautiful about having "Ride of the Valkyries" as the helicopter music and instructing it to take out an enemy position.

I think Keifer was paid by the word, hence his lack of lines. I miss David Hayter :(

Speaks plenty in the tapes and actually does a pretty good job, Hayter would've butchered some of those lines pretty bad considering the way the voice changed over the years.

I also don't really miss Snake just repeating every statement as a question
 
Just put this on members market. Not what I was after not interested in all this management business and other nonsense just wanted a MGS 1/2 experience.

Oh well
 
I do think it's probably relatively easy for large amounts of narrative/dialogue to be missed if you don't go looking for it. There are brief conversations when you find intel documents in the field (easily missed), various tapes, intel briefings, intel radio etc via the iDroid (again, easily forgotten), and interactions that only occur if you go looking for them e.g. finding the one door - so far, at least - that you can actually enter on the medical platform of Mother Base. I've no idea if the game would have actually prompted me to go and see who was there.
 
The only person I've encountered on Mother Base is Quiet, have I missed meeting with someone else on there? Obviously apart from the times when you return to be greeted by Ocelot/Miller
 
Theres also a door on R&D platform.
Question: DO u need to retain the specialists on ur base, like interpreters/cybernetics etc etc as they are taking up room in my various divisions and they have low stats like c/b
