Spoilers, once more last warning, get out now

This was just discovered within the last few hours. The newest patch adds a means of getting Quiet back to your base. I have done the method listed in the link and can confirm it works. I can also confirm zero new cutscenes are in this method too.

http://metal-gear.net/2015/11/10/latest-mgsvtpp-patch-allows-you-to-get-a-certain-character-back/

TL;DR
Replay Mission 11 7 times, non lethal take downs and extract her back to base. Mission switches from [Replay] to [Reunion] and she comes back as a buddy and is hanging around mother base in her cell.

credit to the people on the MGS reddit who discovered this and to the MGN website.

WAT?!

Welfare · Nov 10, 2015

KOJIMA

damn that's nice.

Grenchel · Nov 10, 2015

7 times? I guess with Kojima and his team gone they couldn't have figured out a creative alternative.

LiK · Nov 10, 2015

OMG, great. i'll put my completed save back now. need her back.

but why 7 times?

Doctor_Thomas · Nov 10, 2015

While good from a gameplay point of view, it kind of eliminates that entire story arc and that makes me sad.

Aurongel · Nov 10, 2015

Seriously?

Jimmyfenix · Nov 10, 2015

The quickest way to do this is to drop 2 supply drops to beat her

Klossen · Nov 10, 2015

I also think they patched some of the resurce gathering through exploiting mission repeats. Can't confirm it. Beware before updating the game.

im assuming its just done for gameplay purposes as it adds pretty much nothing to the story.

JimPanzer · Nov 10, 2015

More players having quiet means more players paying for her DLC costumes.

Yeah the hellbound farming method is patched now

Roubjon · Nov 10, 2015

Sounds like something you'd hear on the playground.

Replay 7 times... The grind that keeps giving!

qualitydisc · Nov 10, 2015

This is like the Kojima equivalent of reviving Aeris, isn't it?

Morts · Nov 10, 2015

Neat. Would've been nice before I finished all the Side Ops on Sunday, but still. Neat.

Mr Git · Nov 10, 2015

Oh shit. I'll be doing this, I've missed Quiet. I even find myself humming her tune.

I didn't buy all her alt outfits before I finished the game and that annoyed me.

What DLC outfits does she have?

Believe it though. Just got her back and started developing stuff I didn't get before she left.

It can finished easily in a few minutes and Quiet makes the other missions even easier.

Ranma · Nov 10, 2015

oh, that is GREAT.

That is assuming Kojima had anything to do with this update while he is "on vacation" (lol)

Zeouterlimits · Nov 10, 2015

Weird..

She doesnt.

One time for every year he kept us waiting, I guess.

That's what I figured. I guess after I dip my feet into fallout and some more cod I'll start the welcome party for her return.

Sadly true.

LiK · Nov 10, 2015

kinda knew there would be backlash for this. it's good for the story but it doesn't make sense she doesn't come back at all when you're replaying the same ol' Side Ops stuff.

bobawesome · Nov 10, 2015

I immediately did the mission 7 times after finding out. Worth it. Now it's back to being my favorite game of the year.

Shin-Ra · Nov 10, 2015

Hideo working on Final Fantasy VII Remake confirmed!

JeremyEtcetera · Nov 10, 2015

Why the number 7?

Final Fantasy 7 tribute(Aeris)?

Lucky number 7?

Also can you do it less than 7 times on the subsistence version of the mission?

Curious if anyone might know.

OneEightZero said:

Someone please point me to these DLC outfits or any article that mentions them because I guess I bought the wrong version of the game.

Hmm I dont agree. We all know what happend to her so why not show us how she came back? Instead Konami makes a cheesy decission..... crushes her backstory completly.

JayEH · Nov 10, 2015

I got her back. She was missed.

Make sure to collect all the 1/35 Soldiers.

Haunted · Nov 10, 2015

So much for the fans that praised the amazing meta narrative and bold choice to make the player feel the phantom pain by taking her away permanently. :lol

*insert witty comment about more grinding and completely unnecessary repetition here*

NeoGiff · Nov 10, 2015

I knew something was fishy when there was a "1" next to my Documentation tab! The Butterfly codename which had previously turned into a question mark since Quiet's departure was now back. Luckily I'm not finished with the game yet, so this sneaky patch is actually of use to me.

Honestly, that would be amazing. It's already not going to be a remaster, it'll be a remake, so they're free to change whatever they want (sorry, people who just want a better graphics version of 7). Have him come in and rewrite parts of the story. I'm insane enough to want it.

Also, this is great, was getting tired of D-Dog being my best partner in my goal to 100%.

This was one of the most stupid things they did with the game. They should've went the extra mile and not let you replay missions since it makes no sense at all story wise.

HagiG7 · Nov 10, 2015

But is she the real Quiet, or Chico after surgery and hypnosis?

yea i get what you mean, but this was done for more gameplay/fanbase reasons it seems. it destroys her story, but at the same time, it doesnt take from the story if its just for gameplay and nothing else. That is how i see it at least.

The thread is marked for spoilers, you shouldn't have opened it if you were concerned about them.

Ratrat · Nov 10, 2015

What story? The sideops have nothing to do with the narative. Its just badly thought out postgame stuff. This is a good change, they should add dificulty settings next.

She doesn't have any DLC costumes

If you've lost quiet you've probably beat the game at this point.
