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

You feel it too? The shame? For your actions and deeds?

 

[orthodoxy1095]

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.

Let's not kid ourselves. This probably isn't about gameplay or fanbase. It'll be about some DLC costumes or some other tat.

 

[mgs2master2]

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.

or possibly a theater mode, or new game + or even multiple save patches. lol

I would take any one of those.

 

[Arttemis]

Non lethal weapons, or just choose to spare her?

 

[giancarlo123x]

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

It twas a joke.

 

[semiconscious]

the truth? kept my butterfly patch, skipped mission 45, finished the game. i just didn't care any more. & i still don't ...

 

[mgs2master2]

Let's not kid ourselves. This probably isn't about gameplay or fanbase. It'll be about some DLC costumes or some other tat.

for me its gameplay, i never finished the tasklist requirements to 100%. haha. This makes that so much more easier for me.

 

[Greddleok]

Fantastic. I'd like Quiet back! Gonna do this tonight.

 

[cheesekao]

Another hidden feature they added is that all resource containers that you have previously fultoned now give 100x less materials, effectively disallowing resource farming.

Edit: Things aren't that clear at this moment. Gonna have to wait for more extensive testing. Apparently it's related to main missions?

 

[bobawesome]

Non lethal weapons, or just choose to spare her?

Just spare her.

 

[giancarlo123x]

for me its gameplay, i never finished the tasklist requirements to 100%. haha. This makes that so much more easier for me.

That one extreme mission against the skulls at the airfield is about to get a whole lot easier for me.

 

[Ratrat]

Yes, very basic things you would expect from the beginning. Im glad we are seeing even a little bit of effort now. Hope it continues.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Good.

 

[hydrophilic attack]

Meh, having her be gone forever was a bold move by the developers

we are supposed to feel the phantom pain

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

Just wait.

For what? Her secret outfit is unlocked through gameplay. Kojima/Konami LA is dead. Kojima JP is dead. It's a miracle this patch even made it out.

I understand people want to make a villain out of Konami at every turn, but make sure you point your fingers at the right problems(FOB tax/insurance, MGO3) and not the wrong problems(non existent dlc for quiet)

 

[mgs2master2]

you can still feel a phantom pain.... for an incomplete game.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Sounds like something you'd hear on the playground.

Only this time, it's true

 

[wiibomb]

this doesn't make sense storywise since she's supposed to leave by force and leave you without the option to her, a kind of a meta for The Phantom Pain..

but I guess it makes sense to Konami about selling DLC.. soooo I'm glad I got that platinum having to witness that phantom pain

 

[Ridley327]

That one extreme mission against the skulls at the airfield is about to get a whole lot easier for me.

It's crazy how much Quiet breaks that mission if you give her the Sinful Butterfly. At least one of them will be dead by the time you make it to one of the safe areas.

 

[Alucrid]

YEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Just when I thought playing this game wasn't already a chore

mission 11 is easy though

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

That one extreme mission against the skulls at the airfield is about to get a whole lot easier for me.

If you stand on the roof of one of the buildings their a.i. can't handle it and will just stand around trying to shoot you. You don't need quiet, just a lot of grenades, rockets, and patience.

 

[matrix-cat]

Good stuff. I was planning on leaving the Butterfly Emblem on until I'd mopped up every other Trophy (since there's no way I'm starting a new game to get her back and doing all this grinding again), then I burnt out on the game and put it away, but now I suppose I might at least play her last mission for myself.

 

[Arttemis]

or possibly a theater mode, or new game + or even multiple save patches. lol

I would take any one of those.

This. I want to replay the game without having to constantly worry about having to fulton literally hundreds of new soldiers.

 

[JimPanzer]

You must be fun on partys. Gosh. And I'm quite sure Konami will continue to push out DLc.

 

[Forkball]

This is better than Chapter 3.

 

[NotLiquid]

mission 11 is easy though

I know.

Doesn't make it any less dumb.

 

[infinityBCRT]

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

but why 7 times?

In Peace Walker you had to catch Zadornov 7 times to

Spoiler

kick off the secret ending with Paz's evil turn

.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

That one extreme mission against the skulls at the airfield is about to get a whole lot easier for me.

That mission corrupted my save file AFTER it was supposedly fixed. I was using D-Walker too, so I wouldn't mess with that mission if I were you.

 

[Se7enSword]

Toooooo late though.

Not sure why it took them this long for something like this.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

I was expecting some more hidden FOB stuff, but they actually did something good for once.

 

[yuraya]

Great news. The other buddies are just nowhere near as fun to play with. The game is not the same without her.

 

[JeremyEtcetera]

You must be fun on partys. Gosh. And I'm quite sure Konami will continue to push out DLc.

Oh c'mon with the tired "fun at parties" line. I'm just stating the hard facts. I'm hoping they do put out dlc to prove me wrong that they haven't abandoned the game after this patch.

 

[Servbot24]

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

Yep, Kojima would never have resorted to making players repeat missions.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

So can you actually use her or does she just sit in the base? Because you could still technically get her back before, she'd just be in the brig.

 

[Shahed]

This would have been useful for me like nearly two months ago. By this point I've long since moved on from the game

 

[Steez]

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

Because the base game was so creative and diverse, right?

 

[Nestunt]

but only the "cosmetic" of having her in the base or she can also come with us to the deployments?

 

[Alo81]

It would be cool if after reunion she wasn't stuck in that cell. I felt like at a certain point she earned your loyalty. After that sacrifice especially. Just let her chill with the rest. Sure she can't talk, but she can still have a good time.

 

[Punished_Snake]

Too bad I already platinumed the game, but I will get her back.

 

[sora87]

I quit playing after I lost Quiet, straight up uninstalled. I may be tempted to knock some of the other trophies off now...

 

[mgs2master2]

That one extreme mission against the skulls at the airfield is about to get a whole lot easier for me.

yep as well as a few other missions too. She will be extremely useful.

 

[captainpat]

7 times? Poor women will get brain damage.

 

[Nestunt]

yep as well as a few other missions too. She will be extremely useful.

is it confirmed that you can count on her again?

 

[Punished_Snake]

Let's not kid ourselves. This probably isn't about gameplay or fanbase. It'll be about some DLC costumes or some other tat.

Even if this will be true, no one is forcing anyone to buy character costumes.

 

[Punished_Snake]

7 times? Poor women will get brain damage.

haha that what I thought when I read this post. Too many tranquilizers will make her talk and say "2+2=5" haha

 

[giancarlo123x]

7 times? Poor women will get brain damage.

You only need to drop 21 more resupplies on her head. She'll be fine.

 

[@Wreck]

oh i'm going back after FO4

 

[TheSeks]

but why 7 times?

7/11 was a part-time job, as the MGS reddit says.

is it confirmed that you can count on her again?

...Konami is basically patching out a flag (well not really, just making it reversible) that PC users have been able to "mod" out for months now. So yes, it's "confirmed you can count on her again." She's functional, congrats on being able to do something PC has done just with a bit of legwork, consoles.

 

[TedMilk]

Another hidden feature they added is that all resource containers that you have previously fultoned now give 100x less materials, effectively disallowing resource farming.

WHAT?!? Is this true? I only play single player and rely on those containers big-time to get the last weapons and upgrades. How is someone supposed to get enough resources without raiding an FOB now then?

This had better not be true!

 

[UrbanRats]

7 times? Just kill me now.
