How well did MGSV cover the Soviet afghan conflicts of the 80s?

Thanks for your input anon

It didn't.
on a scale of 1-10 it gets a 0.
It didn't at all
>>332069801
Loosely. It focuses primarily on the Carter administration providing the muj with stinger missiles but doesn't mention any names or really go beyond that.

I think there are only like 3 afghans in the entire game.
It would've been super badass to lead the mujahideen in attacks on the soviets but instead we just got the mission where you go around blowing up tanks while the afghans are off screen doing other things

I agree, I was really hoping BB would train a few muj cells.

It did really bad. The nothing hapening outside missions nor in missions that can show conflict. Afganistan filled wiht only soviet troops and some animals that dont do anything exept driving cars from camp to camp or guarding same looking "towns". There is no mujahid fighters ouside mentions them in missions or in form some pow's. No firefights between soviets and afgan guerrilla. Fucking nothing really. I expected more from this game, at least on level of FC3.

It didn't. There wasn't a Soviet-Afghan Conflict in the game, just a bunch of Russians standing around in the desert. We're talking about a war were 1 million civilians died and there's no fighting going on. On top of that they're not in the city. During the conflict the Soviets took control of cities but it was a constant fight over rural Afghanistan (as in most of it).
It would have been cool if MGSV had a Korengal outpost.

Shitty, the game fails to really humanize either side of the conflict.
It would've been pretty neat to see Snake interact with them, maybe even see a younger Sergei Gurlukovich.

>at least on the level of far cry 3
Try at least on the level of MGS4
How well did MGSV cover anything that wasnt parasites?
>>332073856
oil rig was pretty ok
>>332073562
Well, yeah. First two acts of MGS4 made better conflic in linear levels that next gen MGS5 in open world. I like feeling in mgs4 that something always happening around you (Explosions and shooting and stuff) and yet they managed make it so dull in 5th game. Shit, i wish 5th game was same like 4 but there is some kind of conflict around you everytime, not just 2 acts.

...But that's how that war was exactly.
Not at all. Because that would have required actual character interaction, which MGS V had practically none of.
I mean, maybe it was the point that acting as a mercenary, you were never meant to be emotionally involved in either the Soviet-Afghan war or the conflict between mercenaries in Africa which is why they didn't characterize either side but it's not like the actual plot of the game was much more involving.
It only said that Afghanistan was one big and deserted Soviet military base.
