Yeah, after spending 3 hours sneaking around trying not to be detected.

And yes you can, not side ops though, that I know of.

Heres some advanced tips. Some I'd never believe you could do. Lol

Spoiler: show

Advanced Tips
•One of the first things you should upgrade are your binoculars. When upgraded, they show you the skills a scanned soldier has. This way, you can pick and choose the best soldiers to Fulton back to Mother Base.
•Use the phantom cigar to speed up time
•Use supply drops to stun enemies – navigate and land them on enemies
•Ride fultoning objects to escape
•You can use other Diamond Dogs members on main and side missions instead of Snake – send a botanist if you want more plants, etc.
•MGSV: The Phantom Pain Blueprints for the best weapons are scattered throughout the map, you’ll need an interpreter to unveil their locations.
•Foes will rarely pursue you far from the location they’re stationed at
•Each mission takes place within specific areas on the huge maps, and if you leave a mission’s area, you’ll automatically abort that mission. (Detailed screenshot guides for all missions and their steps)
•You can get Transportation specialist who can develop a Fulton for vehicles in mission 10.
•Mission 22 unlocks the FOB system and the security team
•MGSV: The Phantom Pain PC players can listen to their own music if they put audio files in the game directory, in the CustomSoundtrack folder. From iDroid’s cassette tapes menu you can choose your favorite music.
•During the Mission 11 drop 2 supply drops on top of Quiet. That will make it a really easy to take her alive
•Whenever you have to scout some location for mines and detonating them, use airstrike on the marked mission area to destroy them all at once.
•Whenever a person smokes the phantom cigar in front of the platform it automatically raises morale without having to go around and personally salute your soldiers (thanks col_sanders_recipe)
•You can fast travel to aerial base if you choose return to ACC from the pause menu.
•Use yellow-orange triangular sign to fast travel to location with a delivery place attached to the triangle. Equip your box and wait.
•Use Water Pistol on communications devices with the blue lights
•Legendary Gunsmith is a specialist soldier who unlocks weapon customization
•You can get exclusive recruits and several uniforms if you transfer Ground Zeroes Save Data To MGSV: Phantom Pain
•You can become Demon Snake if you perform tasks that are morally questionable
• The Wormhole upgrade for the Fulton Device lets you extract people and things using a portal instead of a balloon

I'm not that far into the game either. On 20% only. I'm thinking this game is HUGE!

Thanks for that,


Here's another great one. No real spoilers in the video but game and gameplay mechanics. He does mention in the video when or where if any spoilers, though minor.
