Now that so many stores have broke street date, any updates?
The games don't connect to online before the 1st so nothing coming before that unless there's a press release/tweet
What about the guards? I extracted EVERYONE in the hope they'd be added to mother base.
Please I NEED answers!
On the main menu there's a 'Import MGS:GZ mother base staff' option or something like that, but when you try to connect, the servers aren't available yet.Now that so many stores have broke street date, any updates?
We have no idea what counts unfortunately. The regular guards do seem like quite a stretch though.Regular guards aren't going to count...
You likely wasted a bunch of time doing that.
Does the voucher included into GZ works now?
Yep, I was able to register it on my Konami core account 3 days ago. Still waiting for the psn code for it.Does the voucher included into GZ works now?

Hold on what's all this voucher and code thing about ? I have Ground Zero on my computer and TPP waiting in Steam as well. I'm not going to play MGS TPP until Sept 1 and that's also the day in which some MGS server thing goes online ? The server checks your progression in GZ in order to unlock stuff for you in TPP ? If I get that save file linked earlier and put it in the appropriate save folder now locally on my computer, I will be able to get all the goodies for TPP after it launches, right ?

This information can be found all over the internet, but I decided to compile it in one place and add some of my own. This post focuses solely on things which may potentially carry over to The Phantom Pain from your Ground Zeroes save file, and not on Steam achievements/100% completion; there are guides for that elsewhere. Obviously, there are Ground Zeroes spoilers in this post.
1. S Rank all missions
There are a lot of youtube videos available of S-ranking all missions; I found it more fun to find my own way, but feel free to look them up if you're having trouble. In general, speed isn't as important as zero combat alerts + zero retries; the latter two are weighed heavily, whereas time provides less score. Essentially, the three most important things for most missions are to kill the fewest amount of enemies possible, zero combat detections, and zero retries.
2. Costumes
Unlocking character skins in Ground Zeroes will also unlock them for use in The Phantom Pain. (Source)
Costume List
Infiltration Suit – Own a copy of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes.
Solid Snake – Recreate all scenes in side op “Déjà-Vu” NORMAL difficulty and complete the quiz after mission completion.
Gray Fox – Recreate all scenes in side op “Déjà-Vu” HARD difficulty and complete the quiz after mission completion.
Raiden (White Armor) – Complete side op “Jamais Vu” on NORMAL difficulty.
Raiden (Commando Armor) – Complete side op “Jamais Vu” on HARD difficulty.
You can find the quiz answers here.
3. Music
I'm uncertain if music will carry over from your Ground Zeroes save to The Phantom Pain; obviously, it won't hurt to unlock all of the music anyways.
4. VIPs, HVTs, and Prisoners
In MGSV: TPP, certain people you rescue in Ground Zeroes will be available for use at Mother Base. (Source) All of these individuals only need to be rescued once in order for them to appear in TPP; what I'm unsure about is whether rescuing them on Hard difficuly or Normal difficulty matters, but I would rescue them on Hard just in case. In “Eliminate the Renegate Threat” and “Classified Intel Acquisition”, the targets are hostile, so you need to knock them out first.
Extraction List
Mission: Ground Zeroes – 7 Total
1. Chico
2. The four other POWs in Camp Omega, next to Chico
3. POW about to be executed (After rescuing Chico, interrogate guards to find his location in the refugee camp)
4. Paz
Mission: Eliminate the Renegade Threat – 4 Total
1. Glaz “The Eye”
2. Palitz “The Finger”
3. Two POWs in Camp Omega, same location as Chico
Mission: Intel Operative Rescue - 1 Total
1. Hideo Kojima (Complete the Mission)
Mission: Classified Intel Acquisition - 2 Total
1. Intel Agent (Signal him, then knock him out and extract him)
2. Bald Soldier (Ride the truck to the front gate, then head to the room beside where Paz was being held. Interrogate first.)
Mission: Destroy the Anti-Air Emplacements - 4 Total
1. POW in the Boiler Room, same location as Paz
2. Three POWs in Camp Omega, same location as Chico
Conclusion
That's about it. One thing that is entirely optional that I would recommend is catching up on the storyline of the series. Reading, watching videos, and playing through the old games are all viable options. Let me know if you have any questions or if I forgot something.
Ground Zeroes EU PSN code can't be redeemed yet on PS Store..
Cool, sounds like everything I'd care about is done and ready to go.Does anyone know if finding all the xof badges carry over?
And do I have to S rank all the missions to unlock costumes?
There's a guide out there

The character skin unlocks, where it says complete on normal and unlock Raiden.. Does it need to be S ranked?
I know the servers aren't up but I'm getting the game today and wanted to know. Playing Ground Zeroes like a motherfucker right now lol
Has there been any confirmation on region restrictions?
Meaning if i have a digital US copy of Ground Zeroes, and i buy a PAL Phantom Pain on disc, will it work? This on a PS4.

I have a feeling all we're going to get is one or two generic units for having a save file. Whatever you did on this save file won't matter one bit. Fans will be gloriously trolled again.

I was able to register the voucher code back when GZ launched but yesterday I tried to get the actual psn code and it said to come back on launch of TPP. Were you actually able to get the psn code?Yep, I was able to register it on my Konami core account 3 days ago. Still waiting for the psn code for it.
Can I replay a mission to save the other guys, or do I have to save em all in 1 run? For Example in the first mission I didn't rescue the guy who's about to get executed.

Is the Solid Snake costume the MGS1 model like in GZ? Would love a new model with the SS attire.
This one works, I just tested.

No, the one in TPP is a brand new modern day rendering, as demonstrated in the Mother Base video. You keep the eye patch, but everything else is what MGS1 Snake would look like in 2015.

Do I have to capture the soldiers in both normal, and hard?
