Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Absolutely loving this game now. Just finished mission 16 last night, getting the hang of things slowly.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I like the sci-fi element to the game. Running away from that massive fucking robot was epic!

Holy crap. Just fought Quiet, and I REALLY enjoyed that battle, was decently difficult, but the cut scene was so much win. Pretty cool, head shot the jet pilot! overall, a really sweet cut!

I am actually enjoying this game a lot. Most of my missions are ranked C, and I will have to go back and try to improve it, but I am actually having a lot of fun!

Taking my time on this game. On Mission 20 but maxed out my crew, most level 3 with my mother base and all Side Ops done. Fun game.

Better than 4, almost as good as 3. I'm loving this game.

Still has a lot of the Kojima weirdness, like the skulls and whatnot, which I could do without. But still loving it. With its open game play the storing feels really unfocused, but the game play itself is fantastic

On mission 32, Motherbase is complete, about 75% done the FOB 1, I've been using the resource farming technique on mission 21 for Precious, Biological metal, and Fuel.

Haven't attacked anyone else's FOB yet, completed all Side Ops up to this point, got the wormhole fulton and am trying to farm rank S and above using mission 27.

Mission 31 is quite difficult
Already like 5 or so attempts well over an hour.

Alright, I finished the main missions except some of the repeating ones.

Just a hint, when you do the second last mission with Quiet, make sure your equipment and starting time is what you want, the condition carries over to the next mission. I did it at night which was a gigantic pain in the butt, stuck behind rocks, goggles run out of juice.......

DD can stun or kill enemies now, yay!

Spoiler:

No more Quiet for me, I don't have problem with that, it works for that part of the story. It's kinda messed up that I wasn't playing Big Boss the entire time. I thought that was weird about the buddy at the hospital at the start of the game, it makes sense now. Ok Hideo Shyamalan

One of the best things is that they did a version of "The Best Is Yet To Come" for MGS V (even though it's in English instead of Irish Gaelic). The first MGS had the original. The last MGS has the new version. Kind of a nice bookending to the MGS series. It's also, in my opinion, one of the best vocal pieces from a game ever made, whatever the version (although I prefer the original :P )


MGS 1 original version:

Anyone try MGS online yet? I saw gameplay video of it awhile back before the release. Looks interesting, but it looks like basically any other multiplayer shooter.

Been playing quite a bit of the online since the XP boost is active. Pretty normal expectations, except that I find the rounds are way too short. Since its metal gear, I enjoy taking the sneaking around and stealth option, but with how short the rounds are, sometimes its not even worth it.

Pretty irritated. I got the save data corruption error and the instruction is to delete your save data. I wasn't on mission 29/42 with quiet (was on 35). Apparently from what I can find they still can't isolate the problem on Xbox.. Guess I'll have to change games for a bit..

Finished FOB2 construction and installed a mod that allows you to encounter S+ and S++ soldiers on the field so long as your bases combined rank exceeds 448.

Finished all major story missions except 46.

Finished development of 95% of the games gear.
