So last night was another gameplay session with MGSV: Ground Zeroes. This time I got Big Cheese in on the action. We were having a conversation over messaging platforms while in gameplay mode. Me on my Mac while playing GZ (PS3), and Big Cheese on his PC also while playing (PS4). This is an off the cuff account of what transpired during last night’s session. We talk about the companion app, throwing guards off cliffs, crazy gltches, and other nonsense. Also, this was a late session that lasted another number of hours into the wee ours of the night (3AM). So we may sound like 30 Somethings regressing back into our old high school ways. So forgive the unintentional grammatical ineptitude. Enjoy!
[SELF APPOINTED MISSION: TO RECRUIT (KIDNAP) ALL GUARDS INCLUDING THE POWS AND PAZ]
Nekked Snake: ima try to kidnap, haha
Big Cheese: how u kidnap
oh yeah
throw them in the chopper
im gonna try that now too
Nekked Snake: haha
time to fire up the app
Big Cheese: lol
kidnapped 3 so far now
Nekked Snake: try to get that companion app to work and take SCREEN TRANSFERS
[Obviously I love this app]
Big Cheese: um
i have a share button
just tagged u
lol
Nekked Snake: word that’s true, haha
i LOVE calling chopper from app. so easy
u can see the chopper on the device flying in
i also got 3 so far
Big Cheese: fuck had to kill 3
Nekked Snake: chopper was getting shot at earlier but i didn’t get spotted
fail
use FLARE NADES if u can’t get to a specific LZ
Big Cheese: word
Nekked Snake: fuck i only have 4 flares…
dope thing about using app to call chopper. i can run in game while doing it on my phone, haha
so im extracting while chopper is coming
2 birds 1 stone
Big Cheese: i usually call him right before i run back
im about to get the 4th POW
Nekked Snake: i carry at least 1 guard in case the other one wakes i just CHUCK the one im carrying at them haha
Big Cheese: lol
R1 right
Nekked Snake: yesssir
you’d appreciate this way more if u played MGS3, PO, and PW.. cuz GZ expands on everything.. loving this
in PW there are Fulton balloons u can just hook to POWs or guards
TPP supposedly will have them too
Big Cheese: R1 is BINOS
R2 for me
Nekked Snake: you’re on ps4 so
could be diff
for me it’s R1
Big Cheese: did u change ur controls?
Nekked Snake: btw i use my NVG to bolster TAGGING
nope
I’m using ACTION TYPE A
just found out that if your chopper leaves u can call it back asap by placing target marker
Big Cheese: whats ur L2?
Nekked Snake: L2 is radio for me
Big Cheese: thats L1 for me
L2 is aim
Nekked Snake: im using default controls
Big Cheese: R2 is throw
R1 is BINO
same here
Nekked Snake: yuck L2 aim?
R2 is also binos for me
Big Cheese: uploading a clip of me tossing a guy off a cliff lol
Nekked Snake: haha it’s fun right???
Big Cheese: shared it on ur timeline
Nekked Snake: kidnapped like 7 guards so far.. i really have to choose another LZ
nice
ima go to the prison camp and tag more guards
gonna leave the POWs for now
cuz after i get all the guards i can do whatever the fuck i want!
Big Cheese: this is fun
just picking them off one by one
running out of darts
Nekked Snake: i have 6 darts left
gotta find the storage trailer
Big Cheese: got lucky w/ a KO’ed one
Nekked Snake: the last one woke up when i went to get another guard so i threw the one on my back into him cuz he was shooting the chopper.. i love this game
instant KO!
Yo try to Penguin dive off the search tower
Big Cheese: thats it for now time for InFamous: Second Son
(At this point in time I’m (Nekked Snake) the only one still talking about Ground Zeroes)
Nekked Snake: it’s funny
cuz snake will dive then fall normal but land prone
Big Cheese: cool
Nekked Snake: two guards got shot by my chopper haha
i got caught 3 times but still alive!
i lost a guard i was carrying over my shoulder while running to an LZ cuz i was getting shot at, slipped off the side of the cliff and caught myself but dropped the guard into the ocean hahaha
4 POWs and 2 guards to kidnap
Big Cheese: lol
Nekked Snake: i should throw chico into the ocean hahaha
oh shit cool
Big Cheese: lol
did u ?
Nekked Snake: nono, chill, hahaha
probably would result in a TIME PARADOX haha
so when u find chico he gives u a tape i the cutscene right? well if u skip the scene, and put chico in the chopper u still get the tape but a diff shorter cutscene where the tape falls out of chico’s pkt and out of the chopper.
snake then finds it
oh wow..
here’s a glitch for u…
when i tranqed some guards they disappeared
Big Cheese: lol
Nekked Snake: i noticed cuz im using my NVGs
but then after running back to their location they reappeared
crazy
im out of darts.. fuck
DUDE
i can put dead bodies in the chopper! haha
Big Cheese: lol
Nekked Snake: cannot wait what either Kaz will say in GZ or TPP..if anything
hahaha
another dead body
First XOF patch!
here another glitch: i put another guard in the chopper after interrogating him, but when i was running around Kaz called me telling me how to get answers from the guard.. weird
appears to be only 1 guard on my map left.. although that could be just cuz i haven’t tagged anyone lately
one of the turrets are smoking.. i guess my chopper took it out earlier
Big Cheese: theres’ spose to be 40
Nekked Snake: yep
i cleared out most of them on the outside
im dealing with 3 more
then gonna go downstairs to paz
also, another dead body
these bastards wake up too fast from cqc
i need darts
i have 2 guards KOed and one still standing guard but super far so im picking up and throwing them like skipping stones to get closer to the 3rd one, KO him, then call chopper
Big Cheese: Haha
Nekked Snake: i keep having to throw one into the other to keep them KOed haha
shit the 3rd one is behind a door
got the fucker
WTF the 3rd one disappeared!!
yet another glitch wow
Big Cheese: lol
Nekked Snake: fuck it chopper time
the 3rd KOed guard just reappeared in the distance haha
WTF the other 2 disappeared now
there’s no one there now but my chopper getting shot at by imaginary bullets
Big Cheese: lol
Nekked Snake: just found a motherfucker in a tower. i think that’s who spotted me
damn it, haha
just restarted checkpoint cuz chico died in the chopper WTF
Big Cheese: I wonder if I can recreate those glitches
Nekked Snake: maybe u can
oh shit since i restarted check point i have darts, sweet
Big Cheese: Nice
Nekked Snake: oh wow, found an RPG
wtf? it’s like the game can’t handle more than 3 guards down or something..
3 guards were Z’ed. i darted a 4th. carried to the 3 guards, and only see 2.. wow bro, hahaha
definitely NOT like a typical MGS game where i can have an assload of guards Z’ed in one screen
ok now i z’ed 2 more
let’s see what happens
OMG!!
HAHAHA
Big Cheese: Hm article looming?
Happened again?
Nekked Snake: i carried one of them to the 4 guards and 2 disappear!!
wow!
wow dude wow..
so i tried running toward camera with the guards BEHIND me to see what would happen to the bodies
they would fade in and out as i read the other z’ed guard.. this is hilarious!
yes another looming article
This time they all appeared since I decided to walk TOWARD camera
gonna try to get a chopper in since the guard at the watch tower is z’ed
they fade in and out man this is nuts
kinda breaks the game a bit
cuz if a guard is invisible u can’t see when they wake up,
then you’re fucking busted
seems the game cannot handle 3 downed guards at the same time
Big Cheese: Gonna try tomorrow anyway I’m out
L8r
Nekked Snake: peace
with the exception of maybe 3 guards i kidnapped all of them + the POWs. and rescued Paz. score!
RANK C. I will have to do things faster best time. At least I didn’t kill anyone!
Looking forward to yet another Playthrough with another self appointed goal. Check us out next time!
