Hexenherz 04/17/20 8:12:59 AM #9:	GZ is a great prologue to Phantom Pain. As I understand it helps transition from Peace Walker which I unfortunately never got to play. PP is awesome, too. People hate the story, and I don't think it's the strongest MGS plot but I do think it touches on topics most other games don't and it reaches some level of thought provocation that many other titles don't. --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) \| RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ <cite>Hexenherz posted [p:937563899] in I bought M...

CreepySmile 04/17/20 10:09:01 AM #22:	fulton pretty much every soldier you cna get away with early on, you literally will need around 200+ soldiers the computer will auto sort them. Alsp upgrade the motherbase for capacity first. You can manually just move them around too if you need a particular level for research for example Replay missions, some have soldiers that unlock upgrades. In particular mission 10, in the first area with the guy you're to get, rescue the hostages there, one of them upgrades the fulton allowing you to fulton cargo containers. Speaking of resources: fuel is a priority. Mission 2-9? Something like that, each time you start it, including in free roam IIRC, has a chance to spawn a puppy when you start (only once will it spawn once fultoned), fulton him, he's a companion. Return to motherbase now and then from the helicopter menu. Rubber bullets can knock out guards if shot in the head You've got infinite magazines so you can throw them for distractions. Don't worry about getting caught and fighting - rubber bullets will let you just knockout guards. You can (AFAIK), order in lethal weapons during boss fights so if you get into a boss fight and have no good weapons, just get an assault rifle or something from the idroid menu Also the credits will spoil who's in the mission, I'd genuinely just not pay attention as the helicopter brings you down since it does show spoiler characters for some missions. --- I just want to be loved <cite>CreepySmile posted [p:937568186] in I bought M...
