One thing this game does different from Peace Walker, and I think it's an important difference, is that Peace Walker implies or is set up so that it's as if Snake is still on a solo sneaking mission going from point to point in a clear story progression. There are side ops and a bit of backtracking and whatnot but overall the narrative is clearer, more focused. Whereas in Phantom Pain you go back to the chopper and/or Mother Base each time.

It's quite questionable if Ocelot ever did the mind trickery on himself.

When Eli asks to talk to his pops, Ocelot says he's not here despite being behind the 2 way mirror. Maybe he's kidding Eli, maybe he slipped?

The DNA test did show he wasn't a clone of Venom. So maybe he just figured he wasn't Liquid?

If you're on PC you can just swap in a file edit and she never leaves. She still does all the same story stuff, she just won't be gone anymore. It's some hack that basically causes the ACC refresh to set all of Quiet's flags to active if they're not, restoring her. I think somebody on Nexus has a mod for it already.

they had her during the tgs event showing off the dlc and this was a save game that was 100% complete by the looks of the mission and side ops lists.

maybe chapter 3 brings her back once someone's figured out how to unlock it... :tinfoil:

To make the Soviets all scared so they buy into Skull Face's promises? To lure Big Boss in? I dunno, it seems like the plan to infect Quiet and have her infect Mother Base was contingent on a lot of things Skull Face had absolutely no control over.

Are you a BigMac of imbeciles!?
Jesus Christ, I just spent 15-20 minutes trying to do Cloaked in Silence [Extreme] and failed atleast 10 times, never getting her health below 50%. Who the gently caress would find this fun? The regular Quiet fight was fantastic, but this... Jesus Christ, I'll have to look and see if there's any sort of strategy. Can't do more than one supply drop on her, so I can't imagine how it would be possible to get that Optional Task for not beating her without using firearms. What the gently caress. She shoots less than a second after I rear my head.

e: Just read that a lot of the structures she stands on can be broken, causing her to fall down. That's neat, but... now I just need to stay alive long enough to even get between cover to cover.
e2: Also, smoke grenades gently caress up her vision? And if you put tree leaves between the two of you, she won't shoot through them for some reason. Guess it messes with her visibility.

That's because she hadn't lost sight of you yet. I beat this mission just by sniping back, the trick is to get to her side or behind her without letting her see or hear you. You can start this off when the mission begins by crawling downhill to your left, toward the river. Go past the destroyed bridge a bit and you'll be outside her cone of vision and have line of sight on her. She seems to notice you if you aim at her for long enough, probably light glinting off your own scope, but it takes several seconds, which is plenty of time to line up a headshot. She'll then be preoccupied trying to find a new spot to set up against that position, during which you can run and hide somewhere else. Once you get to know her sniping spots it becomes possible to guess where she might go next and adjust accordingly.

edit: just realized this is really similar to how I beat the End in mgs 3 haha

Well, you can always cheese it by airdropping in a tank .

I did it the normal way, and it didn't seem that difficult, but I might just have gotten lucky.

Don't really want to use a tank or sleeping gas since... I guess I just don't want to cheese it that bad unless I feel like I literally can't do it any other way. Only time I used Supply Drops on the normal mode was when I was getting that last optional task, and only tried during Extreme out of frustration.

This'll help a lot. I always tend to go to the right as soon as I start the battle, which has tons of debris from the old ruins in the area. They make for some decent spots to jump and hide during the normal Quiet battle, but she's too good at headshotting in fast succession during Extreme. Never thought to go left and down into the valley.

I had no loving clue how to sneak past the skulls so I just sped past them in a tank laughing as their shots harmlessly plinked off my armour.

Only managed an A rank though, would really like to know how the gently caress to sneak past them properly. Even with the right camo they just seem to spot you lying down still sooner or later without fail. Once you're spotted you're hosed and they can just one shot you in seconds.

The tank is the correct way actually. As far as I can tell theres only two ways to get an S rank on that mission, no traces or just rushing past the skulls in a tank. If you rush past skulls in a tank, the only obstacle is the three guards on the left of the mansion. As long as you can take out all three without a combat alert, you can run in and grab Code Talker easily. Then when you come out the guards will all be zombies and you can book it to the northern LZ with no problems.

Just follow the riverbed and the Skulls will completely ignore you. You'll end up at a cliff with a climbing crack. There are two more climbing spots to the right and you can skip the entire fight with zero effort. It also makes the end of the mission much, much easier. You can sprint all the way to the first crack, but stay crouched after climbing up because if you make a ton of noise they can still spot you. It really isn't very hard at all to creep by them, though.
