MGS: Ground Zeroes to Phantom Pain Save Transfer

EatChildren

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
I figure I've received some of my Ground Zeroes dudes, because after mission two or three I had some guys added to Mother Base that have a the KojiPro fox logo tattooed to their face. It was only three or so though.

Did someone tried to upload and import the data of GZ multiple times to TPP.
If I import it now with just the GZ mission done, get Kojima later in GZ and import again my data. Kojima will be in TPP, right ?

Perhaps a spoiler, so I'll spoiler tag it, but its related to here I think...
Just got a side op to rescue an Intel operative and...it was Kojima! I thought/hoped it would mean I would have 2 kojimas but seemed it didn't...

Other than that, curious to know if any EU people got their GZ code working yet?

That's what I'd like to know as well.
 
Thought I was finally going to be able to import my save. The game had me accept a ToS, but timed out at the actual logging in part. Oh well. Hopefully it'll get sorted out tomorrow.

Edit: It finally connected, then the game almost immediately froze on a black screen D:

I think it's just random, so you might get them later on, I got Kojima, the Sneaking Suit and Golden Arm after the second mission, and have been getting GZ people randomly after I do missions.

Yeah that's how it goes. I think they come in after a few missions and not all at the same time as I just got Glaz and Palitz.

Might have been answered already, but can I take a break from TPP, finish up GZ and transfer over the save file without having to start a new game?

Asked Konami support about European GZ staff codes and got a canned response about the code being invalid or something. I think they forgot those codes exist?

I don't see why not since you have to start TPP before you even get the option to download GZ save data.

Just to play it safe why not wait until you are completely done with GZ before doing your first upload into TPP?
 
The servers are still down for X1! All I want to do is get my bonus items from GZ. Couldn't they have done the save transfer without having to connect online?

I don't even know what to do regarding that right now, it seems possible that they just said the code was for something special to get people to buy copies early and then pretend they never said it. I wanted to start the game with everything off the bat but I guess the save alone will do?
 
I transfered my save (on PC) but all I got was the sneaking suit? No MB recruits or anything.

I got 100% so shouldn't I at least get the other costumes or a few new soldiers?

*edit: nevermind, costumes/golden arm showed up under the development menu

They'll come bit by bit. I think I got most of my and I'm at 100% GZ as well.

In case people are wondering both The Finger and The Eye becomes part of MB.

Do they show up right away after the transfer, or does the game inform you they're joining later on? I got Kojima and a few random soldiers right away after transferring, but those two were nowhere to be seen in the recruits list. And I know for certain that I extracted both of them... I have the achievement for it.

It just past midnight here and after trying throughout the night, I was finally able to redeem my GZ code (PAL version).

Go go go.

For Kojima...
I actually got a side-op that popped up after transfering where I had to sneak into an enemy base and save him. The same sort of situation as rescuing Kaz in the beginning but it was with higher security. I similar cutscene also played out with him saying "what took up so long Snake?" and you give him his new white designer glasses. I then fultoned him out.

Really? He just showed up at my base. Did you not do the sidequest in Ground Zeroes?

Uploaded my save immediately after the prologue yesterday and got nothing. How do I recieve the gear? I know the staff comes later, but I though that the skins and bionic arm were immediate.

My save was at 85%, S ranked All missions on normal, and completed all on hard. Rescued all hostages and staff.

Edit: development menu? Ok

You have to research skins and the bionic arm. The arm doesn't even show up until after a certain mission.
 
I may be mistaken but Koanmi told that downloading GZ save will allow to revisit the Camp Omega... anyone can confirm ?

http://www.metalgearinformer.com/?p=16518

People who own GZ will be able to play a different mission(s) at Camp Omega in TPP. That’s the current plan. There’s something of a big feature involved. It’s never been done in the games industry before. So I can’t go into detail about it, but I think when you experience it for yourselves you’ll be surprised. It’s something that’s only possible through video games
 
Anyone on PC able to upload their saves or log onto the servers?? Still can't..

I did. Took a few tries though.



I'll say, all the people that carry over are a big help. Much higher stats than most of the people out in the field. At least early that is. I think I have them all unlocked now as you won't unlock everything in the beginning.

ARGHHHH 22 hours after Konami says they're "deeply sorry" about the server issues and working on it, and more than 24 hours after the game has come out I STILL have not been able to connect to the servers once.

All I want to do is load my Ground Zeroes save... :C
I did ALL this work in GZ so I could unlock this stuff BEFORE TPP came out so that I'd have it ready to go, and so far, no luck. And no response from Konami in almost a day after multiple requests for comment.

This is so frustrating. I know I know... launch woes. But WHY isn't there an option to load the data directly off my system?

The save data for MGSV GZ is on the same system and HDD as MGSV TPP...

It apparently works for some people though, based on all the stories here of all the great Mother Base support you get.

I took off work to play this game, but my play sessions consist of an hour of clicking the "Connect Online" menu option OVER AND OVER...
Sigh. #FirstWorldProblems

I was able to upload mine about an hour after the game went live. Already got Hideo, the Finger, the Eye, and a few of the no name prisoners. I think the servers are just fucking up now that everyone has it. It will not let me stay logged for more that 20 minutes.

Getting a 100% in GZ was really not necessary, and honestly, a waste of time if you did it solely expecting a "complete" experience.

You're not missing out on much. The recruits are mostly useless, except Hideo, and the items/suits can be unlocked later.

Just play Phantom Pain. You're missing absolutely nothing, and the save can be uploaded any time.

I want the recruits...I want my sneaking suit...I want the gold arm... I want the early game boost.
Not that I'm very early in the game any more. Thanks Konami.

Okay, so you don't need 100% in GZ for all the transfer unlocks. Do you know exactly what you need to complete for all the unlocks? And what are all the unlocks exactly? Because not exactly sure what's been confirmed...

Same question to you if you don't mind. You need 100% for everything you mentioned?

I think they have the info on the front page of this thread... you mostly just have to rescue the prisoners in GZ. Also, extract some of the targets in one of the side ops instead of killing them...

Anybody have a screenshot of the Solid Snake suit? Curious to see what it looks like before I spend the GMP (not like money is any object in this game). Also it looks like the Snake suit is non-upgradeable, in contrast to the standard suit that has multiple upgrade tiers?

I just learned that you need to upload GZ data to import it in PP. Rented GZ a year ago, but did not know about this upload thing. Booted up PP, and hey, despite the save data being stored locally on my PlayStation, I can't do anything to import it to PP, since I don't have GZ anymore ... :(
