I like the oil refinery because it feels entirely different if you're infiltrating sneakily vs. outright assaulting it. I don't even know how to describe it, really, it just feels like a whole different level either way you do it, with the way the enemies react and you interact with the environment. It's cool.

The only thing that I don't like about the refinery is that it reminds me of the most annoying part of MGSV and its that big boss forgot how to swim.

It was actually where I died for the first time because I misjudged how deep the water off to the side was. It looked like it was safe I didn't know!

Tbf I streamlined the main story missions up to then because I wanted Africa unlocked. I think the closest I got to dying before that was Hellbound.

I died in Africa very quickly because I was hiding in a house in the first village and D-Dog identified a row of what I thought were animals because the marks were really low to the ground so I popped out the window to bag and tag em and got instantly lit up by 6 child soldiers wielding AKs

Hahah I once domed the poo poo out of a child soldier in reflex mode because he was obscured by a little hill and foliage.

I can't remember where but I'm positive I read an interview where someone said they were going to have swimming but they couldn't make the controls feel right or something and it was such a small part of the game they just ditched it. It really sucks infiltrating in scuba gear would've been awesome

you could also damage them enough so they catch fire and fly back to hq or wherever.

btw, i never managed to see this twice, but one time i was doing a heros way (like mission 3 or something), and i got an alert, and a freaking tank showed up (like a real one as well, not even an apc). i have a million heroism but ive only seen it once and it was in that mission. anyone else had stuff like that happen yet? i see guard posts call in helicopters quite a lot but never a tank

how cool would it be if missions started having tanks and helicopters deployed as part of the regular patrol . maybe it does and u just need a retarded amount of heroism for it to happen/. mama mia

The only thing that happened to me once and never again was when I held a guy up and told him to lie down and walked away and as I was walking away he whispered in an alert. The dialogue was unique too, like "Enemy got the drop on me, I'm in serious danger" or something
