How Unconventional Stealth In MGSV Is Meant To Be Played

I had deleted my save data because I literally wasted my resources grind getting a one hit kill weapon when I already had a weapon that would mame them to the ground and die slowly.

You'd think an enemy tank falling from the sky in the middle of an airport would be the least stealthy move, but then you remember it's MGSV and it's all just part of the Kojima program. I mean, it's a game that pits you against Voltron at one point, so...

[@kbrewers]

im playing it again after beating it twice already, and i also had no clue you could do that. Never even crossed my mind

I swear I learn something new every time I load into the game. Today it was the rooftop route into the room Miller is held in - I'd always done it on the ground around the back like most people I've seen play the game do, but the frontal rooftop route is far faster and stealthier - if a little janky. I deliberately didn't use camo, in broad daylight, and it still worked and would have been no traces had I not been messing with a guard in the first outpost

[@hushpool3915]

If you watched developers introduce for different approaches, and one of them was named "Thinking outside the box". Basically player used D-Horse to stop the venicle, a cardboard box with woman to attract attention of soldiers and C4, which were placed on a back of distracted soldier. After that all what player needed is to wait for soldires to get to their commander officer to briefing and blow the charge when it comes by.

Another masterpiece for the collection. Also, this made me feel MGSV is in desperate need of some 'drone perspective camera mod' to capture all these amazing cinematic moments from the proper angle. _(Does a bit of Googling)_ Well, it exists on Nexus.

Youre pretty good. Ive only attempted that mission in daylight 2 times and both times it became a shit show after the chopper spotted me or a sniper saw me sprinting across the runway. God i love the freedom and creativity Phantom Pain gives the player. Go at it one way then have to change everything on the fly because a soldier turned left instead of right whenever youre sneaking past them. I used to run non-lethal during my plays but ive switched to more of a mixed style. Not trying to keep/extract soldiers except for the higher ranked ones. My only complaint would be for the lack of goofy details that the other games had. And the radio/codec calles with the other members. Like in MGS3, calling Sigint after using the naked camo. "Snake, what's up? Why you naked?" "Because it feels good." "...ok whatever man, you do you then." "I will, thanks. Just one question though. Is there a way to take off my pants?" "Say WHAT?"
