It greatly increases your available storage for materials and development points or whatever they're called, and some extremely late-game equipment costs more than you can actually even store with an offline-only save. Which is ridiculous and stupid but it doesn't matter in the slightest so feel free to ignore it.
I just wanted to make sure I wasn't in a situation where I could not actually protect my FOB with security forces because I didn't have PS+.

You actually are in that situation, yes. You can be invaded but you can't take any of the retaliation or defense steps.

edit: It might still let you set up a defense line using your soldiers etc but I'm not sure. That won't stop anyone from jacking your poo poo, though, because guards can be pretty easy to evade on the base (lots of stuff to hide behind etc).

It does put that stuff up, yeah, but it's all borderline useless unless you have super high grade S-tier soldiers or whathaveyou that can just annihilate people before they can even move. The real way to stop people is to defend the base yourself in person... which you can't do, so all your stuff is gonna get jacked. Have fun! :downs:

You have no choice. You used to be able to just back out of the menu and not have to build an FOB via ignoring the tutorial prompt, but they patched it so you can't anymore. Thankfully, most people are never going to have enough resources to actually appear on the majority of players' invasion target lists.

Firefox for Android lets you install add-ons including ad blockers an while Google took adblock off of the Google Play store you can still download it from their site. Granted it's kind of pain because you have mess with ports and poo poo but it's still there.

YouTube on PC vs on mobile/Smart TV app is such a different experience.

On PC I have no ads and no bullshit but on TV it's "watch this ad for at least 15 seconds" crap. Bonus points for playing ads for horror movies when I've put on a Wiggles playlist for my daughter :bravo:

I thought you could just back out of the going online prompt when you first start the game, it's what I did and I never had to worry about FOB stuff.

Still getting updates, and it's gotten to the point where they're placing assets into the planned positions and they avoid showing too much to avoid spoilers, so at least it seems like it's going alright still.

I don't think there's a set date still, though, so... yeah.
