[Official] MGSV: The Phantom Pain Thread: GOTY Edition.

[GoldenGlove]

My very first MGS game and I love it.
I straight up deleted Witcher 3 from the hard drive after spending 30 minutes with this last night.
Gameplay is so ridiculously smooth and I already have a couple of clips recorded of dope, spontaneous action sequences.
So much material you can almost feel overwhelmed, but Kojima did a good job of explaining gameplay and kept the map reliable.

YOOO, people always give me a rough time when I say I cannot mess with action/rpg games because the combat/gameplay just isn't top tier.

I saw the gameplay videos for The Witcher before it released and the combat looked good but not great. This MGS has plenty of RPG elements in it but it's gameplay is status. More games should take notes.

Word. Initially I was restarting the whole damn mission, didn't realize I could just restart at the checkpoints tho, so that helped quite a bit.

Nah, don't do that. As you get further along, some of these missions are long as hell. And even the checkpoints are FAR in between. I'm loving this game, and I'm glad I did a blackout on the news/content as it's release approached.

What happened in this one? Post in spoilers, I think I beat 18 want to see if your experience was like mine

Alright.

Spoiler

The objective was to eliminate 6 targets. I touch down about 400m outside my first target, there's 10 guys at the first with 3 armored vehicles and a attack copter patrolling between the first and second objective locations. I get to the first camp and run through them pretty easy by putting quiet on cover mode. i get to the target and instead of killing him I extract him then bounced to the second location, while subduing the other outposts along the way. When I got about 100m away from the second location I sent Quiet to scout the location, but I forgot to take her off cover mode and when she's done scouting she starts sniping the guards putting them on alert before I got to the front gate. So now all the guards are alert and the damned helicopter is flying above the location looking for me. I call in support to change out my tranq sniper rifle for a missile launcher, then proceed to take out the helicopter, while Quiet tranqing everybody around me. After a couple of misses I finally get the copter off my ass and proceed mop up(kill) all the useless guards and extract the ones with skills and A+ ratings. I finally get to the object and decided not to kill any of them , which means I have to escort them out of the camp through a narrow canyon towards the LZ. One of them is hurt so I have to carry one which means I'm armed with a tranq pistol and there's real no good sniper spots for Quiet to provide cover for me. I end up sending Quiet ahead to the LZ and I move forward escorting these dudes while tranq the guards until I finally get to the landing point, which as soon as I get there starts to get over run. I switch Quiet to lethal and she shows why she's the mvp buddy. I get the 6 targets in the copter and we get out there while taking some fire but Quiet killed the majority of them.

Bloodborne's combat is top tier tho. One thing I do wish MGSV had that even Witcher has is a dedicated jump button.

I also did a media blackout. I do this for most games that ain't fighters these days if I'm anticipating them like that. Don't feel like overamping myself up for potential disappointment or have me feeling too anxious to get a game, just to hear it continuously gets delayed n shyt. Now I just be surprised when a new game is dropping in a few days when my homie tells me.

mission 18 was touch and go there for a second

I just beat it. nikkas was running out of suppressor like a motherfukka

They kept stopping because when they found out they was missing they followed the trail of sleeping guys all the way back to me and the chopper

I had to give all them boys that nyquil and eventually I somehow beat it with a A

 

[Grand Eeezus Maxwell]

This has to be the craziest shyt I've ever played in my life. Kojima is the GOAT

fukk Konami, b. fukk em.

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

where is the aerial command center?

the acc is the helicopter before you pick a landing a zone or mission.

on another note i've yet to see any of the other mother base clips they've shown in trailers and random gameplay videos from e3 and other conventions.

 

[SupaHotIce]

I think that rumour about buddies dying is fake. DD just went running right into a pithole and got fultoned inside a building. Thats instant death... that's not even a injury and they fulton them to safety

Ayyye. I just got ddog and I fix with him way more useful than the horse.

Yeah, this is the last one I played... and it's MASSIVE.

I was out there for an hour...

Spoiler

and I didn't even get all the Targets out of there, I only extracted 1 of the commanders, and proceeded to go to the other locations, racking up stuff along the way and soldiers.
Then I got to that cave and found the kid soldiers and the mission switched up and I no longer had to get rid of the Commanders, and just had to extract them out instead. I still got an S even though I was out there forever... I roll with Quiet for the same reasons you mentioned as well
