I really like how this game insentives you to do creative techniques. one of the most useful imo which isnt immediately obvious is that you can take down two gaurds close to eqch other very easily if you shot both in the leg once with the tranq. they dont reqct much, since there is no immediate effect so its much easier to shot both in quick succession, and the second one to fall asleep isnt awake long enough to send out an alarm. which is something you really dont think about since head shots are usually the way to go. The fact that seemingly less useful things have their own uses is great.
18:53 i know about you knowing of sneaking past the skulls, but there is a better way, considering a skull can actually be in the area you are trying to escape too for extraction, instead, you defeat 3 of the skulls, then sneak past the last one, this will allow one skull to make everyone into the... puppet things, who will not be in your way in getting to extraction, trust me, i tried sneaking past all 4, and regretted it since the mission is a good spot for massive farming for soldiers
@@sweatyvetter Take out 3 skulls, then all enemies are puppets. Take out the last Skull (look for the laser pointer) and they all get knockedd out. I did this mission I am sure 100times to farm soldiers that way
For mission 30/Skull face, you can just throw a smoke grenade in the jeep, and drive through, unspotted. Correct me if i'm wrong, but I dont think that breaks any rules, as long as you stay below the gmp limit.
Regarding Proxy War with No End, instead of the Stout, there’s a mounted machine gun in the camp all the vehicles congregate at that you can use to down the Chopper.
No rocket launcher needed for Sahelantropus. Just use the vehicles in the level. The canon of the Rocket Vehicles are great (their secondary) The mist he does only destroys nearby vehicles and there are enough around. That way allowed me to beat it on Hard mode
It would be cool to see you re-do this, but fully no traces too. I don't think anyone has a voiced series video about their attempts. Guides are cool, but your style of videos are much nicer to watch and chill to.
@@ArcadiaP thanks! I’m actually working on a SUBSISTENCE 200% enemy vision and hearing No Traces run right now. I’m about halfway through it. May be a while before it’s out.. but it’s in motion!
Mission 30 is genuinely one of my favorites in the entire game and one thing that I've learned from trying to optimize it, is that you really do not need to rush it to get the points for time. Skullface is actually one of the few missions you can get the "no traces left" bonus (meaning no shots fired, items used or guards attacked) which is worth like a 100,000 points on it's own. And since this requires beating the level in full stealth anyways you basically get the S-Rank for free with the right route, which was basically the one you were taking already btw.
@@sweatyvetter the part where I would have diverged was taking the path through the building on the right instead of shooting the camera and later picking the red door ahead of you instead of taking the stairs up since there is a ladder on the other side of the builing that lets you wait out the guard rotation and make your way to the final gate just like you did
@sweatyvetter I watched a youtuber no trace it by just rolling down the middle and waiting when soldiers passed close by. It's gimmicky and doesn't feel right to me but you can beat the mission in less than ten minutes doing it, if it interests you
Tbh. I never really ever used that mechanic in these games… I didn’t know it was an indefinite timer on hold ups until I’ve gotten a couple comments about it. I’ll be using them more moving forward 😅
I'm surprised you never took advantage of the hold-up mechanic to save on your ammo/suppressor, although I wasn't even aware of it until my third playthrough. Basically if you get behind an enemy and aim at them, you can then make them lie down and they're effectively incapacitated. Works even better than tranq and KO-ing them too because they'll *never* get back up unless another soldier spots them or the area goes on a combat alert. You can even do it to asleep/unconscious enemies by kicking them awake and aiming at them. Some enemies will try and be smart by pulling a knife on you and you can't do it to enemies in riot suits...unless you knock them over first. Going prone behind them and sweeping their leg will get them on their ass without KO-ing them. It's stupidly overpowered once you get the hang of it.
It's easy to identify enemies who will try a surprise attack if you hold them up, they won't say anything and the game won't give you the option to even try interrogating them. You can then react to that and quickly CQC throw them before they try anything. From my own experience, soldiers in full-body riot suits will always behave like that.
Yeah. In my experience, it also depends on their skill rank. B or below will almost always surrender where A-S++ will be more of a coin-toss. Either way, sweeping their leg while prone or taking their gun in CQC will always make them surrender regardless of their skill.
I actually began with trying this but it was taking FOREVER and ended up not getting an S grade because of time. :/ The other alternative is to use the mounted guns closer to the airport command center.. but they destroyed them on previous attempts and once they’re destroyed, they’re destroyed forever.
@@sweatyvetter Update: did it, perfect stealth, no kills and all. The equipment i used was: a custom SVG-76, a custom ALM 48, and a custom MACHT 37. with the deployment cost of 2190… oh yeah, my boy Cannibal Bison was also butt naked wearing a swimsuit which is free to deploy with
@@The_Loaf_ NICE! I never really invested any time into development of new weapons, so I mostly stuck with the basic gear. I was trying to be a simple as possible! Hell yeah brother!
I love the way the early game forces you to use your brain instead of all the upgraded R&D weapons. It really is a totally different game when you don't use the upgrades😂
Wow never knew the code talker mission plays out like that when you take out the skulls. I've always been so terrified and just skip that whole section lol
You should try this challenge with higher guard vision and hearing (Infinite Heaved mod)! Really ups the intensity of MGSV, when otherwise it is pretty easy
@@sweatyvetter Now I remember watching the first video and you doing that. MGSV is such an amazing gameplay experience. So many ways to experiment to solve the "puzzles" that are these missions. Must be why I have a thousand hours in this game😅
Hey nice work completed the challenge when I was watching the video I was scream at you because things or mission is hard that's ez for then I realized I m really a nerd at msgv
In that case I can make a video with the challenge in mind and show you how ez mgsv is for me btw I like the challenge I just don't want to grind hard in mgsv again
If you skip the Skulls during Code Talker in the beginning, they show up at the end when you're trying to exfiltrate, so you may have been better off doing it the way you did.
Uhhhh my controller is trash. LOL stick drift like a mofo and 8/10 times I call D-Horse when I'm trying to knock 🤣 Hope you stick around, I have a new MGSV video coming out VERY soon that is even crazier than this one!
As a little side note, doesn’t choking out a gaurd put them down longer than tranq? Though I think they will go into alert after they wake up which isnt necissarily true with tranq wake up. also- “time is of the essence (of the matter)” basically, time is the most important thing in this situation. also “Amazing, mission complete. See that right there is why you're the best boss, the one and only!”
Congratulations on the videos, loved the play by play. The challenge is all about those white knuckled moments and you had plenty! Very entertaining. Maybe I should add you to the Hall of Fame linking the videos?
After literally just completely MGSV today, I must say, I suck at MGSV…. This video is awesome and I learned a few techniques for when I go back through missions for S rank
@@eggsman63 one thing I coulda used but didn’t was holding up guards. If you hold them up and have them lay on the ground, they will stay there until another guard sees them.
Do you have any info on how far you can rank up soldiers and which skills? Like can I take a soldier that’s E in all categories and rank him up to S? Is there specific tasks you must do to rank up a specific category? This is the first I’m hearing you can rank up soldiers which is really interesting to me. Nice job this challenge looks hard af lol
I honestly didn’t pay too much attention to what was being leveled up :/ I’m not sure how the base mechanics work. I just noticed my soldier wasn’t at the bottom of the list when occasionally selecting a new one.
No you cant make an E to an S. Sure you can maybe rank up 1 staff by a letter but they'd have to be already at their limit for that rank. But the only way to rank them up is by allowing them to earn medals. They can receive 3 medals The distinguished service medal The service cross And the medal of honor I did orginally write out how to get these but youtube wanted to be funny and delete my comment. But you can find the requirements on the wiki.
This video really proved how you can complete almost every mission in this game with nothing more than the frist pistol. When I played this game back in 2017, I was so young and was always so anxious about not having the required gear to complete all side objectives and get the S grade. Now I feel like playing the game again knowing that all you need is enough tries.
@@ultrared030 thanks bud! 😆 I have a new video coming out next that’s tackling doing all the missions I can at 200% enemy visions+hearing, SUBSISTENCE, and No Traces. It’s gonna be a ride. Hope to see you there!

Doesn't hold up enemies and force them to get down, and instead wastes tranq ammo on them.

Maybe the real big boss were the soldiers we kidnapped along the way - kojima (probably)

which is something you really dont think about since head shots are usually the way to go. The fact that seemingly less useful things have their own uses is great.
arms and body also count, I usually do the most armored ones on the legs at the start then climb to arms and then heads as the mission progresses
I appreciate that people are still playing this game. Just picked it back up myself

@@sweatyvetter Take out 3 skulls, then all enemies are puppets. Take out the last Skull (look for the laser pointer) and they all get knockedd out. I did this mission I am sure 100times to farm soldiers that way
Yes my first reaction was also the same, why eliminate all 4 at the starting sequence. This way one can do the rest of the mission without alert
Beating Eli like that is so funny 💀
FROM THE ROPES!
For mission 30/Skull face, you can just throw a smoke grenade in the jeep, and drive through, unspotted. Correct me if i'm wrong, but I dont think that breaks any rules, as long as you stay below the gmp limit.

Great job completing this challenge, Boss. You're pretty good.
I laughed when I saw the way some guy did OKB Zero by throwing a smoke grenade into the back of a Jeep and then just drove all the way in.
