I sent some guys out on an online mission yesterday before I went to bed since they take like 6 hours, now the servers are down and they are trapped in limbo haha.

I knew a dude who fought for the mujahideen during the Soviet invasion. I don't live near him anymore but I wonder what he'd think of how the game portrays the conflict.

Spoiler if you haven't gone to ^^^ yet: How can Paz be alive? I was expecting the whole thing was one of BB's hallucinations the doctor talked about.

It almost definitely is.

The source of the hallucinations is pressure on the optic nerve, and the medbay has a lot more going on that. I think something is seriously hosed with BB's head but I'm inclined to believe it's real.

traitorous caravan was really freaking hard

I tried so many things to lure the skulls away from the truck and nothing I did worked. Not even noisy decoys!

it sucked a lot more without honeybees

i ended up counter cqc'ing most of them and then emptying a clip of my pea shooter rifle

i should probably up my offensive game in case this game throws something like peace walker at me

its hilarious when a guard walks into a place where there was a big cargo load and goes "..whwhwhwhat? how the?"

i think ive done all there is to do in afgahnistan. now guards are wary of fultons and will quickly shoot them down, and almost all of them wear NVG at night. its pretty cool

I enjoy stealing cars and having them be all "I PARKED MY CAR RIGHT HERE DUDE" and some guy on the radio being all "Nah man it's fine I'm sure someone borrowed it for patrol"

i was able to do the whole thing without kicking off an alert, which i think helped. plus, i managed to kill like 3 skulls in one blast, and got away with a ton of honey bee ammo. does the prisoner end up back at motherbase? i'd feel bad if i missed out on a helper.
