*I have an announcement:* As of today, I'm retiring the channel. This will be my last video. Running this channel was a nice hobby for the last 4 years, but I have different priorities right now, and don't have the necessary time or energy anymore to continue making videos at the same level of quality. I hope that my work provided you some entertainment and helped appreciate your favorite games even more. I wish you all the best. Have fun, guys.

[@KatNoirZGK]

Ep.45 A Prenatual Exit

[@mikecarter9723]

blacklisted47 Jensen nooooooooooooooo id cheat to get him back rob a bank anything

[@prenatual]

*MISSION NOTES* My initial plan to beat this mission wearing nothing but camo pants and bandanna didn't work out. It **is** possible to do it this way but it relies heavily on luck and it's not as clean as I would've liked. My first attempt required 5 or 6 checkpoint restarts and had me take 50+ hits. I could probably do it without dying after a few dozens of mission restarts, but I don't see how to do it without getting hit. There are several snipers overlooking the middle of the area and they can see you easily from 150 meters away while you extract the vehicles. Even if you avoid their shots, they would alert other enemies to your position. --- So I went with the parasite suit. One strategy here is to use armor parasites and simply run from vehicle to vehicle without trying to hide from enemies. You can find a few walkthroughs on KZbin showing this approach. Getting shot while armor is active does not count as a "hit", so if you keep it on at all times you should be able to complete the mission with 0 hits. That's one method. I wanted to do it the proper way, i.e. without ever getting shot at, so armor parasites weren't an option. I used mist parasites, which limit the vision of both vehicles and human soldiers to 15 meters and provide the option to do this mission stealthily (more or less). The enemy AI in this mission remains in combat mode indefinitely until you deal with all targets. If they can't see you, enemies will try to attack your last known position. I let the tank see me once at 0:23 but after that I remained undetected until the very end -- as you may notice, all soldiers and vehicles look in the same direction throughout the whole video. With the mist active, it's only a matter of letting the vehicles arrive at their destination and extracting them when there are no soldiers around. --- The strategy I used should be 100% compatible with No Traces (I ordered Quiet to attack the gunship, but I don't think it cancels No Traces because it didn't count as neutralization). However, I didn't earn the bonus thanks to the automated supply drops that Quiet calls in after every 3rd vehicle you destroy or extract. I tried lots of different things hoping to stop Quiet from doing that, but none of them worked. I tried: - Transferring all personnel from Support Unit to other units. When you have 0 people in your Support Unit it should disable all its functions, including the ability to manually call in the supply drops. Quiet didn't care. - Calling in the chopper (as a pick up) to the LZ south of the Palace and letting it deal with enemies on its own. Depending on your luck, it takes 7-10 choppers to destroy the targets. Again, Quiet didn't care and still called in the drops as usual, even though I stayed in one place and didn't extract or destroy a single vehicle. - Ordering Quiet to fire at a vehicle right before extracting it, so that the enemies would detect and attack her. When she takes enough damage (~15% of her health) she relocates to another sniping point. I hoped that she wouldn't try to call in supplies while moving between positions, but it didn't change anything. As soon as I would extract the vehicle, Quiet would instantly forget about whatever she was doing and go to call in the supply drop. I guess the designers really didn't want the player to earn No Traces on this mission -- or simply didn't bother to make Quiet adapt to player's actions. Unless there is some glitch that would force Quiet to stay in one place, I don't see how it would be possible to get No Traces here.

[@lifeless_puddle]

+prenatual I called D-Walker immediately before triggering the cutscene that starts the mission at Lamar Khaate Palace- I placed the drop point behind the building, and it removed her right at the start, a notification pops up that says "Fame Decreased - 10".

[@prenatual]

Wade Hatter It's that easy, eh? Why haven't I thought of that lol. I guess, the mission is No-Traceable after all.

[@lifeless_puddle]

Yeah, I was surprised myself. I was trying to figure out a way to glitch into keeping Quiet, but ended up coming across that instead.

[@Saruman38]

+prenatual "I ordered Quiet to attack the gunship, but I don't think it cancels No Traces because it didn't count as neutralization" But the rules you laid out in your video description read "No attacks from buddies", so I guess merely ordering Quiet to fire is enough to negate No Traces, right?

[@prenatual]

+Saruman38 I should have specified that it means "No attacks from buddies *against human enemies*". I haven't tested it properly, but I don't think the game cares when Quiet or you attack vehicles. If you watch my video for mission 41, I destroyed the gunship there myself and it didn't cancel No Traces. I just can't use Quiet as a buddy anymore on other missions, so I can't check whether it's also true for her or not. In any case, if I'm wrong about this, you can always call in the helicopter to the LZ as a pick up and let it deal with the gunship. I know for sure that it doesn't make you lose No Traces.

[@MetalSnake6199]

*Sees Tank* Snake: ah yes. Another addition to my collection.

A Quit Exit, nice pun prenatual. I will always remember you as the top of this genre. As my last attempt i'll say " Where are you going, stay with this channel, she's ready to grow". Seems this last goodbye video is more deep than i thought. :D

[@aguademenes]

It is the actual name of the mission.

[@GunMusa]

I love the metal gear series it's my all time favorite. It saddens me that it ends. I use all of your videos as walk through in the game. Came across this video and I just have to watch it again, but not tempted to replay the game again, it just hits different. Anyway thanks for all your MGSV TTP videos a great help back then. I just wish the impossible that hideo kojima will continue the Metal Gear

[@Fartobservor]

Now we’re getting a remake of 3 lol

[@gretelmkii5215]

I highly enjoyed your walk throughs since Deus Ex and how impossible the no kill no aug challenge was, on the level of dedication and patience you have as well for you, to be seemingly able to be a ghost's shadow. But it seems you too, will have to be a shadow among the stealth community.

[@eabdoom]

5 years too late. Your videos have helped me pass this pandemic pretty nicely, and i challenge myself while replaying mgsv. Hope you're doing well.

[@CubanLegend561]

I almost missed the comment about retiring the channel. maybe post it in the description too? Everyone has said what I was feeling about your videos, you've changed my perception of how to tackle games, and you've done a great job at breaking down the elements of a game to bend the game logic to your stealth criteria. You are a scholar and a gentleman and you're videos will be missed. Until next time!

[@prenatual]

Glad I could be of service! Thank you, kind sir, and farewell.

[@imthegreatest12345]

Good luck pal. People would want you to carry on, but i feel like you deserve more. Do what you think is right!

[@HungHuynh-bl7co]

just found out about your channel today and i gotta say, your videos til this day still hold up as one of the most entertaining gameplays out there featuring a unique playstyle thats really entertaining to watch and requires alot of skills, thank you for all the effort and quality work put in them and i wish you the best in life.

[@ellankih]

Good luck mate. It's sad to hear that you are not going to do any more videos. Like you said you have other priorities now but I'm sure you'll definitely do best whatever you do as I can see that 'never give up, patience and commitment' in your videos. But all good things come to an end I suppose. But I've a hope (maybe I'm little foolish or selfish) that you'll comeback next year when the new Hitman game comes out. Not to do videos but atleast to say your thoughts on the game. But, it has been epic ride and I wish you all the very best in the world whatever you do mate.

[@prenatual]

+Batman Fanatic Thanks, man, I appreciate it. I really don't think I'll be making videos again any time soon, but I'll still be playing videogames and will definitely play the next Hitman. If you need to ask me anything, just send me a message or leave a comment on the discussion page.

I only just realised that this was a mission. I never deployed with quiet as I went non-lethal from the start, and as a result, I never unlocked this mission. I'm deploying now with quiet to try and unlock this mission. Almost 300 hours in and still finding new things about this game.

I have Recently started playing MGSV TPP and after completing every mission with my own strategy, I would come to your channel for reference on how to achieve S-Rank if i had not already acquired it. I know now after watching this walkthrough and reading the comments i cant complete my gaming routine anymore *sad emoticon* But regardless of this channel being retired for a year, i would like you to know that you are still making fans!!! You have lived up to Big Boss' legacy and made Diamond Dogs and Kazuhira Miller proud! "Amazing, Mission complete, thats why you're the best Boss, the one and only"
