Why didnt he just fulton Chico and Paz safely to the mother base in Ground Zeroes?
>>
heavy weather, aa defenses, radar? also maybe he was worried it would kill them with their injuries?
>>
>>334297239
Chico was a kid and Paz was heavily injured.
>>
They were both injured, especially Paz. Weather was bad, they were on a top secret US military base, somebody would've seen the balloon. He couldn't have fultoned Paz from underground anyway, might as well carry her to the helicopter anyway
>>
>>334297239
Can't fulton extract injured people, or you risk killing them.
>>
>>334297524
Paz that's reasonable then but Chico was futoned in Peace walker so I call bullshit
>>
>>334297524
Didn't stop BB from fultoning him in Peace Walker
>>
>>334297239
Even ignoring what everyone else is saying, regarding fultoning injured people, you DO know that fulton requires the helicopter to pick them up right?
The balloons just make people float in the air, and the helicopter snags them with a giant pole. It's why Morpho and Pequod have a giant stick on the front of the chopper.
>>
>>334298539
Less valuable back then. In GZ he has crucial information about cipher, and BB and friends needed to know exactly what he gave up to skullface

Also snake had to get out too
>>
Why doesn't he just Fulton himself when he's done with whatever he needs to do?
>>
>>334297239
because fulton is some casual shit

>tfw playing gz the first time getting all of those prisoners to the helicopter before the island got blown the fuck up
>>
>>334297239
They wouldn't be able to get back to Mother Base so Paz would have been unable to get any proper medical attention besides Venom and due to the 'Inspection' because if they saw Big Boss with a child soldier shit would have hit the fan.
>>
>>334298509

>>334297372
>heavy weather, aa defenses, radar?
>>
It was 1975 and the tech didn't exist yet.
>>
>>334298674
That's a refueling line.
>>
>>334299941
Shit. I forgot about peacewalker. I'm retarded.
>>
>>334300086
Fulton recovery was also in MGS3
>>
>>334299941
It's mentioned in MGS3 when you go to save Sokolov (I think) and he uses it in Peace Walker.

In the MG universe it certainly existed
>>
>>334299848
Pretty much almost never stops you late game in V which was about how developed MSF was at that point but the best excuse would be that he didn't have any support since mother base was preparing for inspection
>>
You had to extract a few scientists to be able to develop child safe fultons. Not safe for kiddies back then.
>>
>>334298674
I don't think it's the helicopter tha picks them up but a plane. I don't think a helicopter can do a fulton recovery. It would be pretty disasterous considering the baloon could get mixed in the chopper's blades.
>>
>hey this girl has a bomb in her guts
>let's attach a balloon to her and launch her into the sky!


Think before you post.
>>
>>334298254

That's total bullshit. He could fulton tanks in the full game and injured POWs from inside compounds with wormholes.
>>
>>334297239
Injured POWs cannot be fultoned safely. They would die in the process.
>>
>>334300736
To be fair, they didn't know about the bomb right? However, her injuries are enough to justify not fultoning her
>>
>>334300885
They knew about the bomb. Cassette tapes.
>>
>>334297239
Unless you have warp fulton you aren't getting two injured people out of that camp in the middle of bad rain
>tfw we never got to go back to Camp Omega like promised
>>
>>334300947
ah ok
>>
>>334298674
>>334300665
The fulton just brings them to the closest drop zone for the helicopter to pick them up. Its why your chances of a successful fulton decreases if you're nowhere near a drop zone.
>>
Better question, what happened to kazs arm and leg? They really left that one wide open. I know, torture, but it's pretty vague.
>>
Was Chico another big TPP cut?
Was pretty shit that he was alright in GZ, and then in TPP all you get is a random cassette saying "he ded kek".
>>
>>334301494
I don't know that I'd say alright
>bolts in his ankles so he can walk
>weird hole in his chest that plays audio or some shit
>in a helicopter crash

He's in the game.
>>
>fultoning people inside a military base

they would've shot down the plane
>>
>>334301426
There are no drop zones, chances decrease because of weather or a ceiling.
>>
>>334297239
The child-safe fulton didn't exist until MGS V
>>
>>334301837
drop zones are the helicopter drop zones for snake
>>
>>334301494
Quiet is Chico.

>>334301738
lel. always found it strange how the doctor mentions how they found other people's bones and teeth in you.
>>
>>334302136
Paz probably went in every direction including Venom's.
>>
>>334302120
He can't be because he's Gray Fox.
>>
>>334300750
>wanting realism
>not wanting realism
make up your mind anon
>>
It would ruin the tension of the rescue mission Just like all of the rescue missions in V The most exciting part is escaping with the captive on your back.
>>
>>334301738
thats paz body parts
paz even said they are one
>>
>>334298837
You can actually do that in MGSV
>>
Because gameplay reasons and GZ was a far more serious tone. If we're talking lore-wise it's because both were heavily wounded and the weather wasn't favorable.
>>
>>334297239
cant fulton children and cant fulton severely wounded people
literally explained in the phantom pain through gameplay
>>
>>334300750
you have to unlock wprmholes in tpp you fucking sperg, you dont complain that big boss didnt just use metal gear zeke to kill the shagohod because like the wormholes in mgsv it didnt fucking exist
also you cant use wormholes on injured prisoners, play through angel with broken wings using a wormhole and try to extract malak, you cant
>>
>>334302120
I really was convinced this was gonna be the plotline for Quiet when we were speculating. The animation, the bloodline, the abilities, the appearance, Kojima's cryptic words, Kojima's farewell sausage and shame, it all added up to be a cool little subplot (or more!)

But no. Quiet is some dumb grunt who failed to kill Punished Snake, got given the English virus and then defected because Punished Snake is just so nice and kind to her (after burning her alive).

you do though :^)
>>
>>334301465
skulls fucked him up proper is my assumption, but the way he talks about it it sounds like he lost them in the crash
could be the former maybe but then why was he in the field to be attacked by the skulls
>>
>>334299467
This, Kojima used the inspection as a reason for not having a lot of the mechanics from TPP in GZ.
>>
You are told outright that they would not survive the fulton due to a combination of bad weather and severe injury.

Wretched frogposter.
>>
>>334300947
Most of those tapes were not listened to by BB. Otherwise they woulfn't of been surprised about finding the bomb on the chopper
>>
>>334300665
nah they explicitly state in peacewalker that they use a chopper for fulton extractions because of response time and all that jazz
they presumably so the same in tpp because unlike motherbase in peacewalker the base in the seychelles doesnt have a landing strip
>>
>>334297372
>heavy weather, aa defenses, radar? also maybe he was worried it would kill them with their injuries?
All of this.
>>
>>334300431
Was also 9 years of technological advances later
>>
>>334301037
How would that even work? At the end of Ground Zeroes the whole site was bombed. Honestly, that alien mission was interesting. Too bad none of that was in Phantom Pain.
>>
>>334307048
Not him but yeah I forgot about that. I guess they could have rebuilt it, 9 years later, new president, new people, new base.
>>
>>334303404
Not if there are fucking 5 or 6 of them.
>>
>>334297372

AA defenses could be destroyed, Chopper would be detected by Radar realistically either way, heavy weather would be no obstacle for the original fully established Mother Base and its veterans.

The injuries thing holds true though.
>>
>>334301494
>Was Chico another big TPP cut?

Yes actually, there's a file left on the game's disc of Big Boss calling out his name like a buddy.

And a line where he talks to "Paz" and says something along the lines of "Chico was worried about you"

wasnt it only bombed in one of the side missions which the game calls "pseudo-historical recreations"?

It was the middle of a thunderstorm you fucking goon.

Not on Pequod.

Are you retarded?

>>334297239
narrative reasons that are completely valid reasons that don't need justification, but mgsv babbies and kojimadrones will justify them anyway and come up with reasonings from their asses because that's what fanboys do.
>>
>>334309562
eh, no. Don't see it.

God Kojima is such a retarded autist. Imagine trying to work for the guy, imagine what Kiefer thought. He probably recorded hours of dialogue and then one day Kojima decided, nah Snake is going to be a silent protagonist now.
>>
>>334303619

Yeah, if he's standing on a fucking container. There's no option otherwise, thanks Kojima. Gotta have those cinematic chopper extraction/insertions to pad out the game
>>
>>334315802
Pequod and all other support choppers have a fulton capture arm rather than a refueling probe.
>>
>>334317426
in tpp when i dicked around in open world i just did something until i got the auto save icon (the game does this all the time) and just paused the game and hit return to acc when i was done.
>>
>>334317426
If you're on a side op you can just go to the menu and select return to ACC.
>>
>>334298254
You could fulton from anywhere and everywhere in peace walker. There's that whole underground bunker section and you can fulton people from inside there all day every day
>>
>>334317765
Pequod a shit

Morpho is best
>>
>>334301037
I assume they meant using camp omega as a multi-player map?

I'm fine with not going back to camp omega in single player, it wouldn't make sense anyway since the place was bombed
>>
>>334309562
I like her stuff, but the only resemblance is that they're both white and female
>>
I'm not going to go as autistically far as saying that Ground Zeroes was better than Phantom Pain, but not a single base in the game came close to Camp Omega's quality.

I also liked the goofy, unrealistic side-ops of Ground Zeroes. The closest we got was capturing some retarded MSF soldiers and the Kaz mission but with Kojima again.

it was something they said you would get in TPP if you got 100% in GZ
in the end, it got cut out and the crap you got from GZ were just the people you saved
>>
>>334297524
just research super fulton balloons
>>
>>334320082
and the best sneaking suit on the series + le golden arm you mean
>>
>>334321883
that's what I got the golden arm from?
I thought it came with my special edition
forgot about the sneaking suit though
>>
>>334297239

Wouldn't have changed anything.
>>
>>334322226
nah golden arm is from having a ground zeroes file
i think it also gets you stuff in mgo but i wouldnt know because i havent played it
>>
>>334297239

no offense man, but if you're taking the metal gear story seriously , or assuming it operates based on human logic, you're going to have a lit more questions than this
