We already know a little about 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:how your Mother Base actually works, but what about all those soldiers you'll be Fultoning out of each mission during 澳༒洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain? Those extra pairs of hands are more than just addi𓃲tional company in between ops -each one can be assigned to certain areas and given new career paths. In this extract from the latest issue of O⭕fficial Xbox Magazine, the team breaks down just how these new friends can be put to your bidding....
Yours is a stolen army, yanked from the battlefield. But do you really want anyౠ old Soviet riff-raff? Every man on the battlefield is graded on his usefulness to Mother Base’s various divisions. At first it’s a lucky dip as to whether you get a rocket scientist or a total slug of a human being; upgrade the INT-Scope and you can scan before you swipe, pinpointing exactly who to kidnap.
Some targets also possess rare skills, which can help teams’ efficiency or unlock extra branches on the tech tree. But be warned: there are negative skills, too, such as ‘troublemaker’ (picks fights) or ‘boaster’ (disguises his crappy skill grades using the gift of the gab). Hey, you could always chuck these timewasters in ꧂the sea.
Combat Unit
You order the combat unit to embark on NPC-on𒅌ly missions, piecing together teams that offer the best chance. Every operation has various tiers of rewards, from GMP to r✨are blueprints that can’t be found elsewhere. Send an idiot to do Big Boss’ work, however, and they’ll come back in a body bag. Combat Unit soldiers can also replace Big Boss in the main missions. As funny as it is watching a random spod play at being hero, they really don’t compare – most get out of breath after a tiny jog.
Base Development
Expanding Mother Base requires builders and resources. Adding men to this squad opens up further Base upgrades – forcing each platform to grow ever taller – and speeds up the processing time for the materials needed to build that new extension. Matꦇerials are found in small amounts in most enemy outposts, but for a big payday you want to invest in a multi-balloon Fulton and lift entire shipping containers of the things. In a cool touch, the container colour tells you what goodies hide inside.
Support Unit
A high-level Support team means faster delivery times in the heat of battle – when you’re out of ammo and under too much fire to leave📖 cover, you can rely on these angels to drop bullets right into your hands (just dodge the big crate they arrive in, okay?). You’ll also need decent Support to work with R&D on improved item battery life, extra Fulton functions and, most important of all, radical new designs for the cardboard box. Boxes﷽ are vital – keep Support sweet or risk going home in one.
R&D Unit
R&D are the backbone of Big Boss’ upgrades; every time you level this unit up you’ll see the tech tree light up with fresh goodies (there’s one handy tab that shows everything that can be built right now). Some weapons require blueprints retrieved in the field, while more advanced improvements will re🎃quire you to Fulton/recruit a Specialist. Yank up a Bipedal Weapon Developer, for example, and an exciting world of D-Walker add-ons await. Hope he doesn’t make the other nerds jealous.
Intel Unit
Ocelot’s network of spies annotate your map mid-mission, highlighting ene🐻my locations and potential valuables. The higher the unit’s skill level, the more precise the intel. As funny as it is to see a low-level team radio in a mile-wide search radius for one soldier, we prefer a more educated team. You’ll also want to secure a translator for the group – Big Boss’ shrapnel-riddled brain no longer understands Russian, rendering guard interrogations useless. Get on that one sharpish.
