I just did Quiet Extreme and I've either forgotten or never noticed the co-pilot in the post-fight cutscenes.

If a soldier has enough of a bonus from medals does that make the game consider them higher ranks when it comes to the level of the combat, security, etc platforms? Ie. can you turn S into S+ and S+ into ++?

Medals do make a difference, but AFAFIK you can only level them up one level. So an S can become S+ but will never beef up to S++

Thanks. Will it also actually update the S rank to S+ or will I just have to look at the yellow bonus bar and hope it’s enough?

Even with all the medals, S rank is pretty much the best you can get from them. Medals do provide a tiny boost for that soldier, to a limit where S++ caps with one medal, but FOB runs are still better. There may be an extremely rare soldier with just enough natural stats, that all the medals may kick him to S+. The difference with one plus is huge. Don't fall for the trap of giving all your soldiers medals instead of doing invasions and tossing out those soldiers.

I think some don’t reach the next rank ever? Some are S but almost S+ and the medals are enough to push them up, but I think there are others where they’ll be a low S, and no amount of medals will upgrade their rank. Gotta eyeball the bar that says what their rank is and see which ones look like they just need a push.

Gotta eyeball the bar that says what their rank is and see which ones look like they just need a push. I have seen that some S are better than others. Suppose I’ll start at the top and see if those can get pushed up but if they can’t then none of them will, at least without mode medals they’re not likely to get. Thanks, good thought.

Huh, so I had no idea that the offline dispatch missions that weren't the "Destruction" missions refreshed with different missions. When I first looked at that menu there were only the "key" missions, a bunch of recruitment missions for up to B soldiers, and the Destruction ones. I didn't need any B soldiers at that point so I just completely ignored the recruitment missions, figuring they were there for players who somehow lost or needed a bunch of low ranks to farm with. Fast forward to today and since the current FOB event is a motherfucker to do (full 4 platforms with cameras, UAV's, and all soldiers in riot armor so "gently caress you" if you want to tranq anybody) I didn't really have an quick way to refill the S ranks (I only have S rank combat soldiers now) I lost on the Destruction combat deployments with their 10% loss rate so I just went "Well, whatever, these recruitment missions only have a 3% loss rate, free GMP, might as well farm them." I was pretty surprised when those finished and I got a bunch of other missions with rewards other than soldiers I couldn't use, including much higher GMP rewards. Sure wish I knew about that a few dozen hours ago.

Very very excited for Death Stranding, Hideo is unleashed! I was just watching this interview 8 hours into this gameslice stream, has Hideo talking about how he digs Bionic Woman with Lindsay Wagner and a translator there as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPWDwBrUNyY For a bonus, Rocco from Mega64 is on for a few minutes at about 1 hour 8 minutes in. Any other Hideo interviews and stuff from E3? I liked how he tweeted trying on the gear from the recent trailer. edit: Later in the interview they talk a bit on how the game isn't about violence to solve things and whatnot. How the goal of the game isn't to fight enemies, but it's to "reconnect the world", and he says shooting isn't the ideal option. Though it is an option.

Lol shooting wasn’t the ideal option in MGS either. I’m buying Day 1 and all, but one concern I have from the trailer is that Kojima didn’t take any lessons away from TPPs open world. It looks big and really pretty but Norman Reedus is crouch walking or climbing hills all alone. I don’t want another big empty world. They did show some urban areas and maybe they weren’t polished enough yet for the trailer.

Indeed, he pretty much could have been talking about an MGS game in that interview. Goes to show, you can take the Hideo out of the Metal Gear, but you can't take the Metal Gear out of Hideo. Though I'm sure with the out there symbolic elements and the surrealness of the world, and even less combat perhaps, this'll be a cool new extension of what he had been doing. On the world, I was never bored wandering around in MGSV, but there were a lot of audio tapes to listen to, and cool tunes. Assuming there's nothing like that in this, it'll definitely have a different feel. There'll be an NPC or two to talk to here and there anyway. I guess maybe a little bit of that Silent Hills DNA in the mix here, for the unsettling ambiance. edit: He's talking to somebody on a radio thing in a cutscene, maybe you'll be able to Otacon it up a bit during gameplay as well.

I think it’s pretty funny that Kojima got all these known actors with their almost photorealistic likenesses scanned into the game but he couldn’t help but make Lindsay Wagner younger.

The problem with 5’s open world is that most it’s not really part of the game, just a time sink to advance background progress and an obstacle that offers 0 challenge to get through. The only times I think the game couldn’t have been improved by just skipping from one base to the next is 1) that mission where you have go around and kill Soviet tanks, juggling your time and position and 2) the mission where you have to track down that guy while he moves through the big area between bases. Every other time it’s just those terrible “follow and listen to driver talking” tasks. Plus it’s all incredibly boring to look at. I’d take Skyrim any day as an area to walk through. If Death Stranding will be the same then that’ll be bad.
