This and "The Man who sold the world" are priceless!
They literally tell you the story of TPP from start to end.
Yeah, MGSV is easily one of the best examples of using existing songs in a meaningful way. Gives me chills.
You should probably spoiler tag that though

Spoiler tag? It is no secret. Kojima asked us to look into the lyrics when GDC trailer came out. I looked into the lyrics back in the days and Yong analyzed it and we weren't even close to what Kojima was trying to tell us. We simply disregarded that story plot because it is INSANE!!! You see this Kojima? INSANE! But I love you and I love the story you have given us! Still in shock though!

I think I might have done this by accident, where's the LZ supposed to be?

I need to go back and analyze this and Sins of the Father since Kojima said that is also an spoiler for the game
How? There are two LZ which you can pick and choose and from either one you will get attacked by
Skulls or regular enemies depending on if you killed them or not earlier.

So new DLC costumes today, is that it?
That is the best part of MGS
Looked up the lyrics and yeah you're right, some excerpts:
not only those:
Words that kill, would you speak them to me
With your breath so still, it makes me believe
In the Father's sins
Let me suffer now and never die, I'm alive
With your breath so still, it makes me believe
In the Father's sins
Let me suffer now and never die, I'm alive
initially before playing the game I though this song was referring to
David and Eli, the natural sons of BB
The Medic and Venom Snake as a kind of artificial son of BB
amazing.. I'm loving all these bits
"Let me suffer now and never die, I'm alive"
Oh man, when you considered how
Venom's life ended and BB screwed him over in the end...
"Let me suffer now and never die, I'm alive"
Oh man, when you considered howVenom's life ended and BB screwed him over in the end
this:
All this pain, reminds me of what I am
I'll live, I'll become all I need to be
I'll live, I'll become all I need to be
with the very last scene of
Venom crushing the mirror... I still think BB never intended for Venom to follow his orders, but more to assume his persona and do whatever he wanted with the BB name carrying his meme, Venom IS Venom, a second BB, not a tool

I believe the chopper defaults to the landing site you start in, its a much longer run.
Well actually
The first time I replayed this mission, I set the landing pad to the one behind the mansion and wasn't attacked at all, except for the zombie enemies that lunged at me. Though the 2nd time I replayed it, I almost got spotted by a skull sniper so I dont know. All I know is its much easier to set the landing pad behind the mansion rather than run through the forest again.
I see what you meant but imo the very reason BB let him in on the ruse was because he thought he could make use of Venom, notice how he told Venom the truth only after Diamond Dogs became a success and Skull Face was taken down. Before that Venom was just a meat shield for him, like those people in the hospital.
My overall thoughts on the ending after the second playthrough: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=181891046&postcount=19880
There are snipers one both LZ routes. I also find the behind the mansion LZ easier compared to the forest. I remember you having to call the chopper anyway and choose from the two and that it wouldn't default to either one. Might be wrong though as I always call it myself.
this is one of the many things I love from MGSV, you can approach the game by many angles not only in its gameplay, but also in its story, I see what you say, but I also see what other say and what I by myself got as a conclusion, and since the game got open in these regards it is still possible to all things to happen.
may be that is why people got mad at this game, because unlike the other games, this one does not want to solve all plots and doesn't want to give all the answers, it likes to leave you to get some conclusions by yourself

^I really want to listen to that but am stuck at work lol.
You are spot on there, that is why I find the story, and especially the ending, to be brilliant.
MGS3 is well loved but at the end of the day it's pretty straight forward, most discussions about it end after people say how much they love it.
With MGSV, Kojima went back to some of that MGS2-ness of leaving things open enough for discussion and speculation. Which is perfect for the last entry in the series imo. There's just so much to think about, even down to the friggin songs.

you are in for a real treat... seriously, I have heard that for about 7 times now..
who's doing thiiiiiiis...????
Yes, seen them multiple times already.
Is it possible to upgrade my heaviest sniper rifle with a grade 2/3 suppressor. I have the grade 1 now, but I would like to know if it's possible to upgrade it.
3 is infinite and that one is limited to a gun made with that exact property, but I have my tranq sniper rifle with a grade 2 suppressor since the longest time..
you just need to develop a weapon with that grade 2 suppressor and the equip it to the tranq sniper rifle through the customization menu

Yo this OT title is brutal.
you can do that every time you are sit in the side of the helicopter, works wonders when you have to blast anyone on any side of the helicopter with the machine gun

Knocking the dust off and picking up where I left off a few weeks ago, Mission 22 apparently.
Just did the whole FOB thing as a main mission and then got interrupted for more tutorializing while trying to leave on a real mission. What a horrible fucking thing this is. I just dived off a rail to kill myself so I can get on with the game.
Let's see if I can make it to the end this time!

Smoke Fakel + Brennan/Serval sniper rifle. Use the fakel to make a smoke screen and snipe them out. Use D.D to find their positions. They will pretty much OHKO you so try to stay behind a cover as well and get Battle dress.

still working on developing the first FOB, but that hasn't really been priority for me. right now i'm working on S-ranking and mission tasks while my nuke is developing. i'll probably platinum the game before the first FOB is fully developed. i like the idea of FOB invasions (shitty greedy konami practices aside), but i really don't care for the level design of MB for this shit. feels too claustrophobic and counter to the open design of the gameplay
Probably (tasks)
As for traps I place them to cap and do a sideop then acc after checkpoint, works all the time

And here I thought you could use MB coins to buy the DLC outfits. Sigh.

After 118 hours I just discovered that the cardboard box can be used as a sled to go down hills. This game.
Interesting, after 190 hours and a platinum trophy, i never did this, even when I already knew...

Heh, you really thought Konami would pass on an oppertunity to steal some additional money from your wallet?
I mean, it could be worse. It wouldn't be that unthinkable if the game had met a March release date, but with several showstopping bugs and Chapter 2 coming later, entirely as DLC - with no information given about it before release other than the misleading ingame trailer. In this scenario, the Parasite Suit, Sniper Wolf outfit, GZ suit, PS1 costumes, Raiden, Water Pistol, Paz subplot, rematch with Eli, Child and Wormhole Fultons, Hideo Kojima, female soldiers, Golden Arm, additional cassette tapes and Grey XOF outfit would also be their own pieces of paid DLC, with the Episode 51 video also a separate purchase.
None of that besides bugs, wormhole and female soldiers is essential to my MGS experience, or hell, even my list is non essential. Only mgs4 has female soldiers anyway.

Well, there were people in the MGS subreddit and even threads on here talking about how you could use MB coins to purchase the outfits. Looks like that was just speculation.
