MGS5 FOB Guide - Base Security 101

This vid and previous is really making me wanna play more of FOB mode, the amount of information and how you segmented and explained really seems so simple in the amount of it.

"Level up a platform to 4/4 before starting a new one" Wow I wish I watched this before I did the exact opposite of that. I'm playing this game for the first time and just unlocked my first FOB. So of course I started to build up all the platforms at once.

[@Fake_Natty]

This guide is worth its weight in gold. Thanks to this video, I finally started FOB’s last year (had the game since launch, but avoided FOB’s like the plague.) Thankyou for the solid video. You explained many things that for a new player weren’t so obvious when they first start out. Nowadays, I run maxed NL defence and still have a blast on either SC or nuke tab. Hopefully you’re still around from time to time; would love to pvp. Take care. - “Anaesthetia Specialist”

Glad that you found it useful! I don't play much MGS5 nowadays but I might hop back on at some point and see if my FOB is still intact.

[@EmDaMo]

When you use NL, what ranges do you go for on the different platforms? I’m finding conflicting information on short, medium or long - both lethal and non-lethal

[@Falcon197]

@@EmDaMo There's no one answer to this. Depending on the type of platform, the skill level of the guards, and the grade to which you've researched advanced equipment, each of the different range presets for NL weaponry may prove more or less useful.

[@Fake_Natty]

@EmDaMo either NL close or Mid range are the best. I’m slightly in favour of mid because their rifles are just too good at stunning invaders. I frequently go on security challenge and 90% of the time, before I even arrive, the game is over. They’ve managed to stun and extract the guy for me and I didn’t even have to shoot. Close range always works, since they rush attackers and use both shields and OP shotgun. The only I don’t is this give the attacker leverage to cqc them, since they’ll naturally be closer to the invader. All in all, it’s your choice which one works for you.

[@EmDaMo]

@@Fake_Natty I currently only have NL short range on my support, R&D and intel platforms because there’s so many narrow stair- and walkways where the shields and the K.O of shotguns seem optimal. I’m considering changing the R&D to long range NL tho, since the snipers would have the upper hand before the player has a chance to get close, even if said player camps out on containers or pipes with a sniper rifle, because the sleep gas/stun delays them enough at a range to hopefully have the timer against them. Urgh, decisions, decisions.

Didnt have the patience to earn MB coins. Little 15 here 35 there. What I did was buy a new fob waters. Then I fast track the first two platforms on any given fob.

Best ways to grind raw resources include running FOB Event, Combat Deployments (online), and invading other FOBs.

[@SolidJCP]

Red Alert 2 music at the beginning "I see,you are a man of culture yourself!"

[@GREATBOYITA]

Hey Falcon, I could ask you some questions about mgs5 and fobs in general? 1) To infiltrate an FOB, what could the best uniform be? 2) Is it better to invade during the day or at night? 3) Many players can bypass the security devices with a little logic, exploration, and alternatives. How can I best defend the base? 4) You mentioned FOB events. For now I'm buying recruits from there, even if I try my hand at invasions. There are events that repeat every two weeks, but will the recruits be limited or could I buy more (for each event of course)? 5) I noticed there is a 10 minute time limit on many fobs. Is it due to the security systems, or is there something else? 6) There are two things that worry me most: being spotted and the arrival of the defender. When can a defender arrive to defend? Can shooting cameras or UAVs be right? I do it sometimes.

[@Falcon197]

So many questions...I'll do my best to answer: 1) Uniform and gear depend on your objective and strategy; if you expect to take hits or raise alerts, Battle Dress is best. If being stealthy is your goal, Sneak Suit or Square camo fatigues work well but can't absorb much damage. 2) Night lowers enemy visibility. Daytime infiltrations award higher score for success and make it easier for you to see. 3) Base defense is never 100% - anything can be overcome by good strategy and smarts. The most you can do is understand how to create obstacles on the most likely paths intruders will use and try to make their job as difficult as possible. 4) You can only buy so many S++ recruits of each type. S+ are practically unlimited, if memory serves. 5) Time limit is determined by the overall strength of the enemy's security team. Nothing you do can change or extend it. 6) Defenders can only enter when they receive an alert. Damaging their base, killing staff, or being spotted increases the chances of an alert going to the base owner if they are online. If they are offline, no worries unless a friend comes to defend their base. If you're on PC, check the base owner's Steam profile before attacking to see if they are on.

[@rav6274]

How do I prevent retaliation? I heard it was not getting caught, and also I heard its not killing at all but idk if thats true

[@Falcon197]

Mostly correct. If you reach the core without triggering alarms, the base owner will not be given the option to retaliate. However, getting caught won't always enable retaliation either. It depends on things like how long you've been infiltrating the base and how much damage (killing guards, destroying turrets / cams / etc) you cause. If you get caught on a high profile base and have ghosted your way without killing anyone or breaking anything, there's a chance you could suicide and not generate a retaliation. I've seen it happen.

Why are hackers allowed to do whatever they want to do on the PC version? They've patched farming methods, wall glitches and the ability to extract your own nuke, but no effort into stopping hackers?

[@micheal_Wayne_III]

When u infiltrate FOBs successfully, do the soldiers taken get put into the brig (FOB)? And if so how do I unlock them to transfer them ?

[@Falcon197]

Yes, and it all happens automatically. As long as the owner of the base you took them from doesn't hit you back and rescue them by reaching your core, they will be added to your forces after spending time in the FOB Brig. The amount of time depends on their skill level. Higher = longer.

[@JustcallmeB1]

Those FOB hackers that got infinite hp or smth, any way to counter them? I can only think of fultoning them after blasting them with non lethal shotgun, or use the fulton rocket launcher and hope for direct shots(ofc HOJ will help with buying time)... Does fulton rocket launcher even work on invaders? Ive read that its pretty much only way to counter invaders who got energy wall up Edit: thx for the guide btw, hard to find guide or info about FOB that arent 2-4 years old

[@Falcon197]

Fulton launcher only works if you get a direct hit, but the best strat against hackers is a knock-out followed by a fulton. Throwing them in the water is also effective, as they have no way to get back up to the platforms.

[@JustcallmeB1]

Rather limited options, but at least they work, glad to know that, better than having no way of countering them. Heh, i wonder how fulton launcher from close range after HOJ attack will work, sounds like sure way of sealing their fate , given they bother to stick around instead of doing their usual stuff. Thanks for the guide once again, the mgs5 doesnt really explain much, especially when it comes to FOB , starting to get better understanding of the FOB overall. I was rather surprised that people still play mgs5 and do FOB, thought there would be hardly any activity at all, if not for none.

It's good and I'm enjoying it however I don't like the hackers on PF rating. Glad someone pointed it out at least. Also, the controls aren't best for pc. I can't change all of them and had to use auto hot key to make sprint my side mouse button. Overall I love understanding the story more this time around. Just a shame the pc version didn't get much love.

Question: how do you know that your FOB's been infiltrated? (if the enemy wasn't spotted)

[@Falcon197]

You should still get a damage report afterward. There will be a notification when you login that your FOB defense failed, and you can see what happened in your Security Settings (on the platform selection menu), which replays the path of the infiltrator. You can get the name of the infiltrator and a success/failure log on the Intruder in the FOB screen.

Hey! I'm glad You are still uploading MGSV videos in 2019! That's amazing!! I wanted to ask a few questions: What do You think of the current situation in MGSV? By that I mean what do You think about the players, are they still playing FOBs? Is anyone still trying to defend their FOB since 2016? And also: Are You still playing in MGSV at all or even playing FOBs? Just curious! If You will be able to answer me I will be very very grateful!

[@Falcon197]

MGS5's online activity has slowed considerably in the past year. While there is a steady stream of newer players, the community isn't anywhere near as active like it was in 2016-17. Still, you can find the occasional nuke base and the leaderboards for the top 500 players turn over regularly. For myself, I'm sitting comfortably in the top 1000 and I occasionally play. MGS5 isn't a game you can ever really tire from, but I play mostly FPS now like Halo and MW.

[@SolaceGi]

Fantastic video! I just had a question: if you have a section of your fob with some low levels, and then fulton higher ones in, do the lower ones get replaced or do you have to get rid of them manually to make space beforehand?

[@Falcon197]

18:07 - As long as you are bringing in higher ranked staff and cycling out the lower ranked ones, you should eventually see more of those high ranks on your FOB. In the event you don't have enough of a certain level of staff in a selectable bracket (EX: A - B) the game will auto-fill any slots that can't be fully populated by the bracket of staff you have available. In other words, if you go in the Security screen and try to select A - B guards to fill 50 slots on your platforms and there's only 40 staff on your Security Team, the game will fill the remaining 10 slots with lower ranks from Security Team or generate E rank guards to top off. At least that's what I remember.

It's hard to say this, but I think we're past the point where Konami plans to implement any further major updates. The game has pretty well matured, and most of the community has moved on. So the only real way to face the imbalances is to accept and work around them, if possible.

Any idea how to get fob security level to 60? I'm always being attacked not that I don't mind I've just been stuck at 59 forever. I don't know what u have to research to finally get 60

[@Falcon197]

Sometimes giving your guards the long range/sniper loadout increases the FOB level. Maybe give that a try, if you have max tech unlocked for their loadouts.

@@Falcon197 Lol no I've mainly always had snipers on. I've got the level 7 ua drone, level 8 grenades, grade 8 antitheft, grade 8 gun cam, grade 8 cam making device, grade 8 AM MRS-MR, Grade 7 MRS-71, Grade 8 hand grenades, grade 7 ALM 48, and grade 7 battle dress like that's not enough? I see some people with grade 8 level 60 fobs just don't know how

@@Leon.S.Kennedy.SG-09not sure if it’s still relevant, but free placing cams and mines gives your security grade a bump up

What's the best weapon to give lethal guards then? All snipers?

[@Falcon197]

It depends. What weapons your guards use will affect how well they handle types of infiltrators. Snipers will do well enough countering players who try to be stealthy and clear platforms with sniping or gas. Medium-ranged guards will deal consistent damage to stop riot shield-on-back runners or players using Quiet. Close-ranged guards stand a better chance against players going heavy assault. Obviously the outcomes factor how skillful and adaptive the enemy player is, and the skill level of your guards also governs their performance, but these are the general strategic considerations.

I'm still learning FOB infiltration from your other video and I've gotten fairly decent at the events. I have done a few real players but I never really thought about the FOB Team functions. I know you said everything is preference, but have you considered a video on recommended weapons that have been more effective than others? One thing I always take is the Hand of Jehuty. I know it seems a cheap tactic, but what are your thoughts on it?

What's your recommendation for farming fuel for platform expansion?

[@Falcon197]

Attack enemy FOBs and focus on farming fully developed Support platforms. They award lots of fuel for successful infiltration and there may be red fuel shipping containers you can extract.

hey, if you are using KB+M how do you switch your weapons, especially thouse 3 and 4? I find it so clunky and not precise to use a mouse wheel if i say need to select something from the support weapons / items? Thanks!

[@Falcon197]

Mouse wheel is clunky for cycling inventory, which is why I use macros linked to my Num keys so I can just swap to a specific slot. My control layout is ... uncommon to say the least. But it works.
