lol at FAI who apparently slipped Kojima a single 100 Yen bill and said, "we want you to put the name of our company in a single string in the game". e: Although to be fair I haven't done this mission, there's probably special dialog. I love Cup Noodles.

I did that quest for the Chiral Artist and god that side story was not very fun and I can't wait to get ziplines because getting out there is a massive pain in the rear end. Finally got my truck though!  precision posted:It's annoying that structures can only have a song or a hologram and not both :\ I agree.

By this point (3 hours) in any given MGS there would be like 5x the charm and surprise and .3x as many showcases of Kojima’s dull musical taste

One more Kojima(TM) detail: audio transmission quality is worse if you're outside the chiral network. I only noticed it because I crossed a border while Heartman was talking to me.

Another thing I've been wanting to say but couldn't quite put into words: If you really liked the part in MGS3 where Snake is climbing a ladder and the theme song to the game plays, then you'll really like this game.

That's one of the things that I absolutely LOVE in this game that goes a lot to world building, is little things like this that keep you immersed in this world you're helping to put together. In a game like bioshock, there's no point, and it's development time they could have spent on selling you a $49.99 expansion pass for future content that hasn't come out yet.

Every first conversation you have with a prepper has lots of static. Once they’re on network the hologram is way more clear.

Okay here's what actually happens if you leave corpses around Eventually - and for me it was over 7 hours later at least - you'll start getting messages from Deadman telling you to clean them up. If you don't, you'll get a white voidout which doesn't actually cause a crater, it makes you reload a save but when you do, all the corpses will be gone So as long as you're aware it's coming it's a very minor thing.

End of game question I have a bunch of knot cities with exclamation points over their icons. What is this supposed to represent, exactly? When I go there, I don't see any orders that are of particular note. Is it just a way of saying "there are new standard orders you haven't done yet" or something else? There are some knot cities that don't have them but I definitely never took side orders at. Seems weird, like I'm missing something obvious.

in the shared locker there will be a category that's called something like "Cargo for Sam", that's what the exclamation mark is for

I finished this morning, but I don't know if I am going to plat it. I setup a pretty good zipline network in some areas but it seems like I'll need to 5 star everything in a specific area and then rebuild the thing here and there due to network limitations.

Macaluso posted:I'm not sure this is the game for you I despised the story and characters in this game but had a really good time with the delivery simulator for a good 30 hours or so. Ended up dropping it once the pendulum started to swing way farther in the direction of long exposition scenes around chapter 7 or so though This definitely felt like the biggest clash any Kojima game has had between the style of storytelling and the pace of the gameplay mechanics

(Chapter 3 spoiler) How do I level up the Collector Prepper? I got him to like 1 and 3/4ths stars and it just stopped, he won't go any higher even though I did all his orders. Do I need to take orders from outside to deliver to him? I want that canvas bag!

Ineffiable posted:So is there a good way to build up the delivery time stat? It's my lowest stat and I think the only way to effectively level it up is to take deliveries with a time limit but some deliveries seem to give me 20% progress and sometimes I get a whole level. How do I get the most points for this other than do it as fast as possible? Not really. The main way to boost levels is quantity but most of the timed deliveries are tiny and its obviously impractical to get a bunch of orders together especially with how few there seem to be. So far the best I've found is a giant beer delivery from timefall farm to lake knot that bumped me up like 20 levels Hub Cat fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Nov 17, 2019 |

I thought once I had the bikes I wouldn’t need anything else but speedy legs and two level two floaty boys can carry such a silly amount of stuff ahahaha Also during the chiral artist cutscene I burst out laughing when I saw Sam in the background. With all four suit slots filled the guy looks like a loving spacemarine just standing there blankly.

Maybe he's just a tough old guy, I'll try it the other way around. Some preppers require you to visit nearby places to get specific deliveries that go back to them and every other delivery will get likes but not progress them toward network connection. The collection quest that you described doing is normally one of the types they want you to do, but if it you're stuck at the next star you might have to look elsewhere for another.

So far the best I've found is a giant beer delivery from timefall farm to lake knot that bumped me up like 20 levels My personal evidence that I've seen is that the bigger the cargo the more exponential the likes (and therefore the level you) you et is. I'm gonna check that location. I've done so many deliveries that give me half a level or a full level and that one may be the most productive way to do that stat. You can redo deliveries after a few hours so the best plan might be to do the very good ones, try to find other good ones to do and come back for the quest when it respawns. Man this platinum is gonna be very tedious. Keep on keeping on!

Probably a stupid question, but how do you carry stuff in your hands without dropping it after taking like 10 steps? Everything slips out of my hands and I have to pick it up again. Do you have to hold L2/R2 down the whole time if you want to carry stuff in your hands? Game owns btw
