I bought the Phantom Pain off some dude for 45 dollars, and since it was the Steam edition it included both Ground Zeroes and the pre-order bonuses.
I already had Ground Zeroes, but since I'm poor and I was trying to save up for Phantom Pain it was the pirated version.

My only real complaints that I have is that the open-world map makes it very easy for you to be spotted, but that's probably not an issue for someone who's more patient than me, and that sometimes the enemies huddle up to much and you have to take them all way too quickly for comfort if you don't want reflex to kick in.
And one minor nitpick is that the time guards spend being knocked out seems to be completely random, but you're supposed to avoid them, so once again it's a problem with my playstyle.

Sneaky beaky or NUCLEAR?

"Try" being the keyword here.
And to be honest, it'll be kinda weird to play Big Boss' descent into villainy completely peacefully, so I'll probably start non-lethally and start shooting people when **** hits the fan.

Although given that it's a prequel to the original Metal Gear I guess the bad ending would probably be the more accurate one...

I feel like the Walker would be good, but I can't resist the idea of rolling around the desert on a horse

To be honest I'm kinda surprised there's no fully combat oriented buddy.

ideletedmyotherone ONLINE (08/30/2015) [-] Yeah, it's a shame none of the bosses from Metal Gear are available as buddies, having Shotmaker blasting people in the face with a shotgun while tanking everything they threw at him would of been awesome.
Although having Dirty Duck throw explosive boomerangs at people while hiding in a box would probably been not as awesome.

You will be missed, generic MSF Sergeant.

Although if the ST-84 close range capabilities are half as good as REX's it'll be a pretty one-sided battle.
