Huh, weird. Ill bear that in mind.


I kind of dont like how libraries work anymore either. Far as i can tell its one folder per library and meh

so heres the thing about that:
Libraries still exist but they aren't shown by default. you can turn them back on w/ a registry edit.

The replacement folders you see at the top of everything are something totally different and stupid and you can delete them with a registry edit.

yeah this is really stupid and a step backwards. i used to just have my dropbox folder as my main library with all of the worthless game stuff in the actual My Documents, but no more.

also why are there two lists of folders in the explorer sidebar now

during the middle-end of the game, money becomes an issue.

if you're not using tools/weapons, don't bring them along.

quiet's gold outfit costs like $10,000 per deployment, so maybe don't use it if you don't need it.

ya i figured this out after doing dozens of missions with a full load out when i ever used was the tranq pistol

i also only just figured out you can use the start menus "return to AAC" thing after missions instead of calling down a 20k GMP chopper :negative:

you have to call for a chopper to finish proper missions but you can quite to the acc for side ops, as long as you checkpointed after finishing the op.

one is probably your libraries and the other is the new "folders" feature which is basically a set of folders named the same as the default libraries but they are actual folders instead of libraries. its really really dumb and idk why they did it that way.

I guess maybe people don't understand libraries, but why not just do what you did in win 7 and make the libraries contain only the default folder and hide the library features if they're not being used.

actually iirc the library thing you can just turn back on if you right click on the left hand side in explorer (in the white space near the folder lists or w/e)

you cant edit the quick folders list or w/e its called w/out loving w/ the registry which is ultra stupid because quick folders replaced favorites which are editable in win7.

yeah I have tv and movies as separate folders and then in the library I display them ungrouped so the individual folders within tv/movies all show up as if they're in the same folder. is nice.

Your support team makes dudes light up on your map, just check the map and scan until there's no more circles left and you've marked everyone
