Nintendo Switch voice chat is gonna be through a phone app, so in order to have both game and voice chat audio come through your headphones you need cords going to both.

You still need the phone to actually play with them in the first place though, and that is also too much

If I'm reading this MGSV message correctly, by not having PS+ I can be invaded but can't in turn invade others or protect my FOBs? Is there basically any point to having the FOB feature (rather, staying online), then? Cause I'm never going to get PS+.

It greatly increases your available storage for materials and development points or whatever they're called, and some extremely late-game equipment costs more than you can actually even store with an offline-only save. Which is ridiculous and stupid but it doesn't matter in the slightest so feel free to ignore it.

Also if you play the games now you are going to have zero clue what the gently caress he's talking about, because Gex games are specific to the day and date of their release.

If you were alive when the game came out this is thankfully not true as most people have a longer memory than that of a goldfish.

edit: This of course still does not imply it would be funny

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't in a situation where I could not actually protect my FOB with security forces because I didn't have PS+.

You actually are in that situation, yes. You can be invaded but you can't take any of the retaliation or defense steps.

edit: It might still let you set up a defense line using your soldiers etc but I'm not sure. That won't stop anyone from jacking your poo poo, though, because guards can be pretty easy to evade on the base (lots of stuff to hide behind etc).

So even the crap I can buy like cameras and infrared junk isn't going to get implemented?

Guess I can just hope that most people have stopped playing MGSV at this point.

It does put that stuff up, yeah, but it's all borderline useless unless you have super high grade S-tier soldiers or whathaveyou that can just annihilate people before they can even move. The real way to stop people is to defend the base yourself in person... which you can't do, so all your stuff is gonna get jacked. Have fun! :downs:

Do not play the base minigame in MGSV

You have no choice. You used to be able to just back out of the menu and not have to build an FOB via ignoring the tutorial prompt, but they patched it so you can't anymore. Thankfully, most people are never going to have enough resources to actually appear on the majority of players' invasion target lists.

The manga is better but the anime is decent outside of some poor soundtrack choices. It's pretty much anime + The Thing.

It's a shame you only fight the thing at eye level because it's actually the tallest boss in the game by several stories. That whole area is just the "we ran out of budget and time"-iest area in any video game I've played, which is a real bummer because it could have been amazing.

It's a cool looking boss too and then it just does that one attack over and over. I'm not even sure it actually tracks you because it seemed to hit the same place every time.

It's got several attacks, but for some reason it's only inclined to do the one. It's potentially a pretty tough fight but the overhead slam is usually the only attack people see.

Because its chepaer than a PC and the games actually work out of the box.

Does that really justify spending several hundred dollars more just for the prestigious honor of not waiting a few months for the price to become reasonable? It'd be nice if they could skip that part and just have them be reasonably priced to begin with.
