In my experience, they each have an exit that they always attempt to escape from. A quick way to get through it with everything you need to transfer to TPP is to rescue all of the POWs and wait at the prison camp for one of the targets. Take him and the other guard out and extract via the nearby chopper spot.
Next, go into the armory across from the gate to the admin building and get the rocket launcher. Fire it at something/someone to trigger an alert and then run or hijack the nearby vehicle. Go over to the nearest exit, which is where the other target will be headed on a jeep. If you took the vehicle, park it so it's partially blocking the exit out of the mission area, which will prompt the target to exit his jeep when he arrives. Then you just have to pick him up and run out of the mission area with him.

Pick up the sniper rifle (if you have it unlocked) when you spawn and blast your way across the map. If you snipe everyone in towers, it becomes 1000x easier. You can even snipe the guys standing next to the VIPs and they wont flee.

I saw this method on uknighted's stream Friday or so: if you wait long enough the two will meet up outside the front gate and talk about one having a bad feeling. They'll get in the same jeep with two guards to leave the area via the small bridge close to the starting point. Tranq a guard beforehand and leave him on the bridge so the jeep will stop to check. Tranq everyone after they exit the jeep, load Eye and Finger back on, and drive out.

For the Intel mission, I need to extract both the contact and the bald marine right? I speed ran it to get the tapes but not the people.
I don't think I'll 100% this by tomorrow lol, I'm lazy and I got work later.

Just managed it. Doing it in the reverse order is way easier, since the shades guy doesn't leave the tower. That was the main problem with the way I was going, since he left the tower even if I wasn't spotted, and was accompanied by 2 guys in an area that already had 2.
I had to retry checkpoint manually 2 times to avoid getting the guy I was carrying killed, so it ended up rank A.
Thanks everybody.

I feel like Shareplaying the game and asking some of you pros to help me unlock things :3
Have anyone confirmed that you need the game to be 100% completed?

There's a really easy way to extract both The Eye and The Finger.
Basically, you stealth your way over to where The Finger starts out and tranq him. This should set off an alert. Book it over to the big door of the admin building and wait. The Eye will attempt to escape via Jeep through the door. When it opens, run in and tranq him in the face. He'll fall out of the Jeep fast asleep. Pick him up and put him in the passenger seat. Hop in the driver's seat and drive to where The Finger is sleeping. Grab him, put him in the car, and drive out an exit.

No because actually no one was able to to the transfer, servers will probably go up on toesday, with code redeeming on PSN too.

Yeah, you shouldve a long time ago. There was ample time considering the lengthy Phantom Pain release schedule. Peace Walker, in particular, is a long ass meaty game.
At this point, watch a summary online.
Yes.

I don't believe so. I think you can extract people in different playthroughs and it adds together.

This post should give you an idea.
Yes, just Normal. Nothing changes based on difficulty for the POWs or VIPs.

Why does he wear the mask!?
So just people for your army?
And skins you have unlocked in GZ (Gray Fox, MGS1 Snake, Raiden)
There's plenty of tranq ammo, shoot everybody. Just don't be hasty and remember there will be guards pretty much everywhere.
IRC the bald guy will be very close to your starting zone, like in the area just outside the ground zeroes start point. If you go there first you should get him fast. I forget if calling the helicopter triggers anything but if it does just hide him in the GZ start point and extract the two together.
I don't think it's possible to download a 100% PS4 game save is it?
How long is taking people to do these things? I've completed the main game more than once but it was a while ago and I really can't remember exactly what I did in the game.There are two ways to unlock content in TPP.
1. Transfer your Ground Zeroes save to TPP
2. go to core.konami.com and enter the code that came with your early retail copy of Ground Zeroes. If you bought the game digitally, I believe you do not need to do this step.
As for your Ground Zeroes save, here's what you need to do in GZ in order to unlock everything:
If you're good at the game (as in know where they all are exactly and have a rough idea on soldier placements near where these people are located) it can take anywhere from just an hour to an hour and a half to get everything (a little more if you need to complete Deja Vu and Jaimus Vu on both Normal and Hard to get the skins). If you're not good at the game and re-acclimating yourself with it I'd expect it could take 3 hours or more since you would be playing it a lot more safely and/or may extract them in several plays (yes you do not have to extract everyone in a single run for a mission, you can get who you want, finish, and then go back in and get the others you didn't get and it will still count).

got to 95% last night. Unless anyone knows of a super easy way to S rank the eye and finger mission, or the destroy AA guns mission...i doubt i will get 100%. I really, REALLY hate those two missions
I already S ranked everything on ps4, but doing now on xbox cus thats what I will be buying it for. I remember these two missions taking me several hours

Thanks. I\ll probably be a bit rusty but can use guides to male it easier and it'll all be practice for the main game.

YouTube is your friend.
Takes a few seconds to S rank the AA mission if you have a sniper rifle. Look it up.

thats what I did on normal on xbox...kind of. Wasnt sure it worked the same on hard.
And no way thats the easiest. The one with the tape, you sit on the back of a truck, climb a ladder, grab tape, get back on the truck, S rank
On Normal. And no, it's not the easiest one to S rank, easiest one is "Recover the tape" one on Normal.

So, I have a US(It was cheaper to buy on sale) GZ save file, but a UK Phantom Pain copy - I also have UK GZ from ps plus. However, I wanted to know if my US save file would be OK, since I've only completed the story so far on GZ, I don't mind playing it again.
So how does characters transfer works?
I did the missions to get S ranking then I know that I did each mission at least once where I extracted everyone of importance.
But then I did the missions again for the trials where I didn't bother to extract people.
Will it still transfer the characters I extracted?
What's bothering me is that I sometime had to kill people and be really fast (and no extracting) to get S ranking and that's the runs that are saved for the play records and I'm afraid that those are the runs that count for the transfer....
Ultimately I did save every prisoners and important guard at least once, of that I'm sure..

You don't. It keeps track of it. You can do a run, get the bald guy, extract and finish the mission with his tape and then go back in and get the spy instead.
I stuck the bald marine in the chopper and nobody said anything about extracting him. Does that mean he was dead? I did get shot at a bit.
That's good. That means I got both the Eye and the Finger, then.

I always miss those god damned shots.

To know you got the bald guy when the mission ends, it should say in yellow text on the left, "Extracted bald soldier". Another additional way to know is on the score board as it usually gives you a bonus for extracting them, it'll be under the No Reflex bonus.
I don't believe it saves until you finish the mission so even if you got the trophy mid-mission the game hasn't logged you as having gotten the prisoner until you finish it.
For AA as long as you have A rank you spawn the rocket launcher at the beginning. You can sit there and pick off the 3 guns and the vehicle in like 5 minutes from the spawn point, easy S rank.
The "Eliminate the Renegade Threat" mission would be a lot worse if
there wasn't a sniper rifle in a truck on the bridge 30 seconds from your spawn. Once you get the sniper rifle, you just have to tranq all nearby guards, snipe both targets from the eastern watchtower, and run out of the mission area.
Just use this method.

You can get a slightly faster time by planting C4 on the first AA emplacement you find (detonating it after you crash your first truck) and using a recoilless rifle on the LAV.
Guess he done died, then. Whoops!
If you know you extracted them once before you don't need to do it again. You can double check the prisoners by going into your Play Records and going into each mission's play record. The prisoners rescued (or extracted) count is near the bottom of each mission's record list so if you see you got 4 (or whatever the max count is) prisoners in the main mission in your play record that means you got them all and the game has saved it. That's how it keeps track of it.
The only caveat with that is that it does count repeats, so if you did a repeat playthrough and extracted the same prisoner it will still add to your prisoner count in Play Records. So, if you got the same prisoner(s) across multiple playthroughs it will keep adding to the count in the Play Record which can make it difficult to know if you really got everyone.
But basically, as long as you know you got them once you don't need to do it again -- the game doesn't overwrite previous mission data in that way. Again, just check your Play Records and you'll see the prisoner count and the special VIPs extracted counts as well.
