Metal Gear Solid V - The Phantom Pain

Yeah, eventually got them working.

You can change your loadout when dead, silly boys.

[Walker]

I must be rubbish then because I chose Infiltrator and I did not do too well.

Didn't give me the option? And I died... a lot.

Like I say, you get it at level six, and it's something you have to add to your loadout to turn invisible. That's what makes it OP.

[Walker]

I'm level 7

[Benji]

Did you add it to your load out in customisation?

Besides, you don't need to be invisible to steal people's fultons

Just use the shoulder pads to swap screens when you die to change.

Is the online mode any good? I remember playing with randoms on MGS4 and hating it. Only person I ever saw being stealthy was Niner.

[Benji]

It's alright, could do with more maps and modes, and nerfing some elements, but I had fun.

[Walker]

I should be on after the gym.

Some of the tapes get too fucking long. The occasional 5 minute one is fine if it's interesting. But....holy shit. 10 minutes? 

[DavidMarrio]

The party system for online is a bit dumb in that it's the actual ps party. If someone made the party and they aren't on metal Gear they are the party leader for the game.  

Had a few games last night. I enjoyed it but again it was temperamental in getting my and my friend in a game together.

Went to do Extreme Traitors Caravan last night and thought how much of a pain it'd be. Took me about 4 minutes (2 minutes to get into position, 2 minutes to extract and escape) and an S Rank first attempt

I'm about to do that one. I hated the first time...took me forever to find them! 

Also, did the Extreme Quiet Fight. Man....fuck that. I tried to do it normally....but I couldn't. So I just dropped sleeping gas on her twice.

If you want a tip for ETC...

Go straight to the airport, head around to the back of the airport and there's a quick way in by hopping onto a box next to the fence which takes you straight behind the bay where the vehicle is. Extract vehicle quickly, then peg it as fast as you can away from the skulls and across the border.

I got an S rank on traitors caravan on my first ever attempt. I have no idea how.

[lanky316]

I had a nightmare with the mission and what felt like hundreds of restarts and still got an S. I think it sort of naturally helps you to build up to that. Four of the objectives are essential so you'll get those easily enough. I only did one of the others but despite everything still reached it. Brother apparently had a similar story. Loads of deaths, didn't really seem to do much right yet still got an S.

[Benji]

Okay, Extreme Quiet...

Can suck it. Her stupid armor builds back up too fast to do decent damage, and you can't risk being shot at all because it's 1S1K.

[Avenged Probably]

I'm not as far as you guys, is Extreme 'mission name here' just harder versions of the current missions I'm guessing?

Are they mandatory to finish the main game? I don't think I'd wanna do them (at least not right away).

[Benji]

Yeah, just basically more unforgiving versions of other missions. Some of them are piss easy, this is the first one in chapter two that I've genuinely struggled with, and this is mission 40 of 45ish.

There's two chapters, chapter one is basically the main game, after which you could technically consider it finished, and chapter two is largely repeat missions with a few originals, that basically expands stuff from what I understand, so chapter two is basically more like a "post-game" than anything.
