This made me appreciate objective checkpoints in Far Cry. In this game the "Restart from Checkpoint" and "Restart Mission" are almost identical because of the lack of checkpoints lol.
TimeTravelKiwi What can I say, I love a challenge. Just needed some help with the order of what to do first. Glad to say after about 20 try's I nailed it.

Oh my god! I got to right at the end and I got blew up by something at Lamar Palace (a mine or motar, but I don't know) and had to go to a fresh checkpoint... turns out that fresh checkpoint takes you back all the way to the beginning! What a load of shit!
Damian I was getting extracted after taking out the tanks and chopper (optional to do this mind you,) didn't know my extract point was right next to one of their bases, shot me down with the air cannon...
Destroy One Tank. I've been experimenting with Bombardment, it's a one shot Deal so far, for some reason they will only let me order One Helicopter Support call, and Once came close to nailing the Moving Tank! Ha-ha! Good Luck
1st. Like the 1990's Snake, you have to find A Rank Soldiers to build Mother Base, That means return to 'Back Up-Back Down' to Fulton every Soldier. (because 1/2 way through Mission 12 I'm short 30 A Soldiers.) 2nd. Learn about C++ Grade, then return to Mission 9 to Fulton the C++ Soldiers!
Gustavo Guzman I have heard that but I don't know. I try not to kill to many soldiers because I usually want to extract them so mine has always looked about the same.
If you practice the start of his route, it's possible to surpass his run with minimal ruckus. In fact, I got the combat alerts silenced so quickly, they never had time to phone in, and bases never went over moderate alert. God bless the man for the ingenious plan, though.
+1ZosoLZ people now expect that games HAVE to autosave every step you make and let you recover of any error... if you play Contra on NES, you probably could suffer an hearth attack and call it worst game ever
@@setsunaes times change, man. Contra was made in the times where games were extremely unfair either to: A. Over-extend the game without having to program too many levels B. In the case they were Arcade games, to make the player expend a lot of their money This is a 2015 game; a game that auto-saves constantly. You can't just introduce the players to a mechanic in which you can play whatever way you want, knowing that you won't lose much progress and then giving them an extremely hard mission, with no checkpoints and a lot of objectives
@ Wow, it’s been a hot minute since that post. I imagine there have been patches and tweaks to the game, so what worked then may not work the same now. I’ve not played through the campaign in years. But, my favorite thing about the game was the many, many ways you could approach the objective. Find the best way now and update for everyone!
Hey there TimeTravelKiwi, just got my 100% and I wanted to thank you for all the work you put into making these videos. I really appreciate it, it helped a lot!
I have to do each task separately otherwise I risk tearing my hair out if something goes wrong when I try them all at once. 😅 these guides are the most helpful on TH-cam.
Going back from new save to grt plat on ps5 before mgsD, you sir are a godsend... i was DREADING this mission but you made it soooo easy... especially when i aplit it up and did the no supply, extract 3 tanks by itself.. Thank you Good Sir.
Your video is excellent and very helpful. These mission tasks... what a pain in the ass, especially the prisoners. Practicing this run definitely helped in memorizing the landscape that's for sure. It wasn't until this where I had a firm grasp of the map layout.
this mission is easy to get S rank, but all tasks, no great video man, now I know that completing all the tasks is actually not difficult after watching this video, thank you so much
This shit was tough, I would get to rescuing the prisoner in the river and would die from the fall. But instead of what you did, if you follow along the side of the river all the way to the end theirs a small hill you can take.
Just a good note guys there are no checkpoints in this mission. be careful. I got to the last tank and died because it wasnt stuck like i had expected haha. Nice guide though props :)
I’m not shitting you all . I went and did this mission first try and got up to the point where two tanks and a helicopter shows up . I tried to push my luck with the Grom but got blown to shreds by the helicopter
Holy shit this is a crazy mission. Sounded like you didn't take your first breathe until around after the ten minute mark. There really is no way to do this mission objectives all on the first time without having prior knowledge of everyone. Not to mention which knowledge of what missions are time sensitive. When I did this the first time, I didn't know about the prisoners (except for the one called out), so I just took my time and actually extracted all the vehicles (or at least all but one or two.) Which makes me wonder; how long do you take planning out these missions? Much appreciate the all the hard work and time put in.
+Damian Clark This mission was the of the hardest mission to do in one play through (so far, Still have to do the extreme version). I did the same as you on my first play through, then came back when I had the Fulton I needed. Spent about 2 hours looking for all the prisoners and the 3 tanks. Then 2 to 3 hours trying to find a way of getting them all in one play though. I was just about to give up on doing it in one play through then I thought of the way that you see in the video. Then another hour or 3 to execute it without dying or killing a prisoner. There was dancing and fist pumping happening after seeing that S Rank :D
TimeTravelKiwi Well all the props to you for putting in the hard work. Your videos so deserve more views. It definitely seems that more important than being stealthy, it matters more how fast you get the mission done and I doubt there's a faster way then what you did.
That's the flaw in this game's scoring system. It requires foreknowledge of the positions and rushing to it. That's why in many S-Rank videos the uploaders just beeline to the target and ignore everything lol.
best way to do this mission is just finish it with as many tanks as you can get and then just watch this video and don't ever look back at this mission objectives
Really enjoy walk throughs that have the person talking just to explain why they do things a certain way really helps I finally platinumed red dead redemption 2 and now I’m ready for mgsv I just need 3 trophies(S-rank trophy, mission task trophy, and all key items and blueprints trophy) and platinum i avoid it for so long
OMG!!! I can't believe this!! After attempts to do this, my score was 198365, and i got my S rank!!!!! I though for sure that i was going to get a A or B rank for many combat alerts and kills. Wow dude thank you!!! You got a subscriber!!
TimeTravelKiwi well i'm damn impressed so far at how perfect it can be. can't wait for your future videos. also if you could say um less that'd be even more perfect x)
I have an S Class Intel guy i lovingly call TimeTravelKiwi because holy crap would you make a great intel member with how well you explain and demonstrate these All Task Missions! Thanks a ton even in 2023!
Thanks for Video! You're the Best! I finally got it, kill 1 Tank and Win. (I blew up the Vehicle with the prisoner Twice and Lost 2 Times!) Just started the Game, now finally after researching the Rocket Launcher, Today I will go after a Tank, but I've been doing very well with the Grenade Launcher shooting down all vehicles!
This is one of the big reasons why mgs fans deteste this game so much. You pulled off the mission with incredible skill and precision and it was very impressive to watch But it was utter chaos!!, blowing up people in vehicles, darting all over the map like a lunatic, getting detected all over the shop, these actions SHOULD have cost you dearly.. Not to mention that realistically the player is meant to understand that this mission can't be realistically completed flawlessly first time mainly due to the point in the game where it's given to us. And that's frustrating and a little depressing.
I can understand that. I'm new to the franchise, I only played a demo of MGS on PS1 way back, and MGS V: Ground Zeros before I played this so I don't know how the other games are played. But if you are only up to this part in the game, then I just would like to let you know that this mission is an outlier, this is one of the only missions that force you to be chaotic and I think it's a learning tool, just to show you that you can play this way if you want. I played the rest of the game as stealthy as I could, but this mission requires chaos. I am with you on the fact that you will have to come back to some missions because you will need better gear to complete a mission task or two. Thats annoying. Just my point of view as someone new to the franchise that got the platinum trophy and you might not agree with but wanted to let you know that this mission is not the norm.
Yeah good point. Other than 'a quiet exit' I can't think of any other missions that are actually like this. And it does do a good job of showing you just how much of a wrecking machine you can be.
Thank you so very, very much. This is like one of those missions in games that i found impossible to complete without a helpful video. Mainly because of those stupid armored vehicles. I had like defeated almost all of them and suddenly two appears on my map NEAR THE END OF of the mission area. I got so pissed of, like who designed this mission? xP
if you struggled like me, just knock out one tank and do all side objectives you possibly can in one run, then exfiltrate. rinse and repeat. The only side objective you can't complete doing in this manner is extract the 3 tanks. In order to do that, extract or eliminate all 7 armored vehicles, then extract all 3 tanks afterwards
Thanks for this video but at start it would be nice if you showed where you choose to land with the chopper. (It seems to be the north landing zone here).
+Nhilzer I use the south east landing zone in the video. I do show the map as I'm landing, I thought that would of been enough when I made the video but it must not be.
+TimeTravelKiwi Sorry then, maybe I didn't pay enought attention. Thanks anyway for another nice helping video. Since then I finished all the tasks of the game so thank you again. I think it was mission 48 (when you have to extract tanks and protect Quiet) that was a hell of a mission but finally with parasite armour suit it worked.
Awesome. This is the only video I have seen that shows how all tasks for this mission can be done in one deployment with an S rank. The 20 thumbs down must be from frustrated failures who, like me, find it too difficult to copy. If you want an S rank then forget the prisoners, land in the north east and focus on the massive bonus for eliminating all 11 vehicles. If you want all tasks in a single play through then this video shows the key first steps: land in the east and quickly eliminate the vehicle heading away from you to the north (where it will exist the area), then rescue the prisoner who will soon be killed by the soldiers hunting him. After that, you can leave the four soldiers and prisoner wandering in the desert until later, making it easier to focus on the prisoner in the jeep, the launcher in the truck, and the other armored vehicles which will leave the area. The helicopter, three tanks, four soldiers, two jailed and two wandering prisoners, can all be delbt with at leisure after the timed offensive is over. Respect to TimeTravelKiwi.
due to the fact that d horse is completely unreliable when it comes to time based stuff like this, i think im just gonna land north and place a mine on the road above the outpost, then head south and drop another mine somewhere between the outpost and the guard post, probably another mine on the 3rd truck so i can sneak behind the guys looking for the prisoner, then head back to the jeep to throw a decoy in front of it, once thats over i feel like balance will be restored to the universe
I'd recommend using the 3 minute method by just extracting 1 armored vehicle and then getting out without trace for getting the S rank, then use Javelin with infinity bandana to achieve all objectives.
It gets really scary when the Gunship is your last target, firing rockets at you and deploying flears all over the place. Luckily they did not distract the missiles :D
I know it's been some years but I can't emphasize enough how much I hate the tasks of this mission. So frustrating with the time limit and prisoners wandering around and all of that. Just... urgh,I swear that this are the only tasks that are preventing me from getting the platinum over all these years.
you know whats fun? following this guide because i was missing either a vehicle or a prisoner, not even expecting S rank at all and instead I've actually managed to get it without even being spotted once btw and then, getting soft locked in the loading screen after boarding the helicopter. im writing this while the icon is still rotating, I'll now try a couple of things before giving up while not knowing the consequences. what will happen will determine if, after so many years, this mission will remain uncompleted at 100% for at least another year. edit: DAMN IT COUNTED, I DON'T KNOW HOW. APPARENTLY IT SAVED BECAUSE OF THE SERVERS OR SOMETHING, I TRIED EVERYTHING AND THE GAME JUST FROZE FINALLY, I'M OVER THIS MISSION HELL Y E S
Good lord. No wonder I couldn't figure this one out right off the bat. I keep getting pissed, then saying fuckit and killing everyone before I bounce out
I find your way to start the mission way too risky. There were several close calls where you almost missed an armored verhicle, you encountered tons of guards and killed most of them... without that much luck of a timing one had to do this several times to succeed. It's highly recommended to start this complex mission from the north not from the south and work one's way southward, from where all the 7 APCs will be heading toward you (instead away from you with you to have to chase them) with the exception of the jeep carrying the prisoner and the truck with the CGM rocket launcher, which both move north to south. Players who don't want to rush like insanes and buy themselves a bit more time (this mission doesn't depend on time at all) should deploy north of the Yakho Oboo Supply Outpost. To get an S-rank they can set up an effective ambush point on the road and wait for the enemy to come to them without running around like mad. The truck (at around the 5 min remaining mark) and the jeep will drive south from Aabe Shipaf Ruins and can also easily be stopped there with D-Horse as a roadblock, with decoys or (even better) with EMN mines if one has such researched already and equipped. Except for the last two of the 7 APC till here not a single shot needs to be fired. Those last 2 APCs may only reach the Yakho Oboo Supply Outpost in the last few minutes which is why one might have to rush out to destroy them as soon as the truck with the CGM launcher was captured. Since one of the last three APCs is all the time parked inside of Yakho Oboo one could plant an AT-mine right in front of the compounds gateway. This mine will take care of this APC once he starts to leave Yakho Oboo and head north as well, which's hence the closest to disappear from the map in the north. Given that those last two APC wouldn't reach the ambush in time (the last 2 minutes), it would be wise to head toward them. Once they're destroyed the gunship and the 3 MBTs will appear at the scene. The MBTs can be destroyed or looted, doesn't matter at all for the S-rank, the own chopper can be called in to a landing zone where the gunship is cycling around and can take care of the enemy's chopper... This does not count as air support, this is just an extraction call which can be cancelled after Pequad downed the gunship, otherwise he will disappear by himself when nobody arrives at the LZ to board the chopper. Thus the player has all the time he wants now to get the 3 MBTs, if he doesn't want to destroy them. That will perfectly do for the S-rank, since after 11 vehicles are destroyed and/or extracted, no alarms were risen, maybe even perfect stealth, no kills etc. it will give at least 160,000 and adding. Only two mission objectives would be left (given, the 3 MBTs were extracted, not destroyed): get all 6 prisoners plus the 4 elite soldiers chasing one of those prisoners. That's the safest bet for unexperienced players or for those who first want to get familiar with the scenario without putting too much effort into it to no avail at the end because they got eventually killed anyway. If you fail to get all 7 APCs you can easily restart from there, plant your stuff to block the road and wait for the vehicles. Once familiar with the pattern and the 15 minutes (wich are actually enough to get them all) the S-rank should be no problem at all. After that one can try it again starting from the north, taking out the first parked APC inside Yakho Oboo Supply Outpost, working toward the center of the map, where the second APC appears making his way toward Yakho Oboo. Stop him with anything you used to stop those vehicles when you ambushed them (decoy, D-Horse, EMN mine) and send it to motherbase. Two more APCs at about 1 km behind the second one will be heading toward Yakho Oboo, light them up with your rocket launcher and keep on working your way to the respective valley where the 4 soldiers are looking for the prisoner, located east of Outpost 12 and Lamar Khaate Palace. They will be on the hidden road that leads to the Outpost 15. Extracting them should be simple enough so long as you either stun them, put them to sleep, or perform CQC on them and send them to Mother Base. Once they're gone the escaped prisoner in the valley will be safe for now. Interim result: 3 APCs destroyed + 1 APC extracted (3 APCs remaining), 4 soldiers extracted, 1 prison escapee safe for now just not extracted yet. Now it's high time to get back from the valley to the centre of the map to take out the next APC wich happens to be travelling right on the same road north where in the meanwhile also the jeep with the other fast travelling prisoner is incoming southwards. Just stay on the right side of the riverbed. No need to hurry too much. The jeep will stop after you shot the APC successfully trying to investigate what happened giving you enough time to take out the jeep drivers and fulton the jeep with the prisoner inside. Done. Since all this happens near the bridge across the river it's now a good opportunity to also rescue the prisoner wandering the riverbed just north of guard post #12. He will either be walking under the bridge or lying down near the end of the riverbed in the grass. It's just the same direction where you gotta go back anyway to approach the last two incoming APCs from Lamar Khaate Palace on the opposite side of the river. Destroy them from far away as possible, for right after you gotta go back north again where the truck with the CGM weapon will arrive (at about 500 to 600 meters away from you). Stop him (maybe shooting at him should do), grab the launcher, extract the truck to not waste it and turn around again to get back to the meanwhile incoming tanks. Result for now: 6 APCs destroyed, 1 APC extracted, 2 prisoners extracted, 4 soldiers extracted, weapon of the transport truck secured + now 3 main battle tanks and 1 gunship incoming to hunt you down :) Now it's up to the player depending on which objectives he already completed before: if he took his time to extract the 3 tanks during the first (short) S-rank walkthrough he could destroy them now to speed things up a little bit. If he doesn't want to waste them and risk to get spotted and killed while trying to extract them (again?): just shoot them down. But since the tanks are not going anywhere it's highly recommended to first deal with the gunship and down it using the CGM launcher. It should still be sufficient enough to also destroy the 3 tanks later on, if one doesn't want to extract them (again). If not, now it's time to ambush each of the 3 tanks bringing them to a stop and extract them calmly. Not a too big deal. Take care of the remaining 4 prisoners when all else is done. The player has all the time in the world to free them, he will even get the S-rank again, he just has to make sure not to die when in case he gets detected. Shouldn't be too hard either. I love this mission, it's highly complex and not nearly as pressed for time as it might seem at first glance. Your walkthrough looks impressive and is quite nail-biting to watch it, very well done! But I assume most people will fail more often than not if they deploy south and try to work their way northwards, hence it can become very frustrating if they're not as fast and lucky as you were.
A good alternative is to play this mission the same way it is shown on mission 34 from our Kiwi master to extract a maximum of armoured vehicles instead of destroying them. Check there my comments in addition... The worm hole Fulton device will however be very useful to extract some prisoners in safety (you will need to achieve mission 31 to get it, so come back to it later to finish S rank more easily). 😉
already has a 4* GROM.. i mean. At this point in the game my base can't research it that far. I tried using the grom for the mission before that, where you have to kill 2 tanks and an officer, and i kept shooting at those tanks with my 1* grom and did't do a dent.
The Prisoner mission was the hardest thing for me. Let me just point out that if you have the Sealth ability fully upgraded to level 6 then completing all missions on S rank should be no problem at all. Plus, I believe you get a speedo outfit that allows you to move faster than the Flash if you compete in all missions with S rank. One last thing I forgot to mention is this is a really good mission to farm for vehicles in. You just need the EMP to place down and the Stealth and Speedo outfit and you are complete. I farm nearly 80 Vehicles back to back by just doing this and selling them for a high cost for GMP
thank you for your share. and there are one problem for me. since I'm a Taiwanese, my english no so good. other video with subtitle and I can auto translate into Traditional chinese. but in this mission 9 video, there is no subtitle. I'm hard to understand how to do those mission. since your description very important for I can understand what should I do.
Just did the Extreme version with this mission and happy to report I did it all objectives too. I did however go at night to help avoid detection, and wore Battle Dress that probably saved my life a couple of times. No reflex mode, had to take some extra precautions. I'll also say that the vehicles seemed tougher, and that I'd only use one of the first two missile launchers (RPG or the other unguided one) as for the lock ones you need to be within 200 meters which isn't always an option. But yeah, thanks again.
I always do this mission, ignoring all the mission tasks, and am completely unable to destroy all the vehicles in time. I get to them as fast as humanly possible, and destroy them quickly, but there's always one that leaves the mission area. It's the one that spawns near the vehicle containing the rocket launcher. For some reason it spawns there and leaves almost immediately. Since it leaves, I don't technically destroy "all" of the vehicles, so I never get the Mission Task for doing everything without a supply drop, nor do the 3 tanks at the end show up.
+gamecrazy1750 Another thing. In this video, you used the Grom-11 rocket launcher, grade 4. You took out the first armored vehicle with a singular shot. I used the exact same weapon, yet the armored vehicle went down in THREE shots, instead.
+gamecrazy1750 The first vehicle can be taken out in one shot if you shoot under the vehicle. If you check out my video for the extreme version of this mission, I do this in a much more manageable way but I do use higher level gear.
It would be helpful if you showed the map when your at the location of getting a prisoner because this was very confusing since things were in different locations
+Ancient Warrior Yea I did rush through this mission a bit too fast. Have you checked the description? I added a bunch of more info in there to hopefully with that.
spent 3 hours on this mission and still haven’t completed all objectives OR gotten S rank, this one mission might be the thing stoppering me from getting plat
Just do each objective separately, you don't have to do them all in one go. And the S rank is actually pretty simple, watch a video of someone else doing it and you'll get it no problem.
![Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - All Mission Tasks (Mission 34 - [Extreme] Backup, Back Down)](/img/n.gif)
i died at the last tank, restarted at checkpoint... oh there is no checkpoint, u just start a the fucking beginning
Yup. I accidentally screwed up my exfiltration so I thought instead of grinding through I'll just restart to check point...! Well that was that :-)
D-horse ran of a ledge and killed me 😭
Me too, but I stupidly rode off a cliff on the way to extraction.
This made me appreciate objective checkpoints in Far Cry. In this game the "Restart from Checkpoint" and "Restart Mission" are almost identical because of the lack of checkpoints lol.
there is so much to keep track of on this mission. Its insane.
+Doubtful Tea Yea its one of the most intense missions, but you don't have to do all tasks in one play through, I just did it for the video.

1st. Like the 1990's Snake, you have to find A Rank Soldiers to build Mother Base, That means return to 'Back Up-Back Down' to Fulton every Soldier. (because 1/2 way through Mission 12 I'm short 30 A Soldiers.) 2nd. Learn about C++ Grade, then return to Mission 9 to Fulton the C++ Soldiers!
Actually you shouldn't wait while unlocking doors. If you mash triangle it will unlock much faster.

thanks for this dude! PS: that shot at 12:25 was EPIC
+Dan Simmons No worries dude, I felt like Big Boss when I made that shot :D
this mission is easy to get S rank, but all tasks, no
great video man, now I know that completing all the tasks is actually not difficult after watching this video, thank you so much
This shit was tough, I would get to rescuing the prisoner in the river and would die from the fall. But instead of what you did, if you follow along the side of the river all the way to the end theirs a small hill you can take.
Im so happy. Thank you for this tutorial. I tried this so many times and missed it. Now i have this mission full.
Jessy w a girl who plays mgs? Marry me?
Thanks but im happy with my boyfriend :D its a good game but you need mutch Motivation to play all 100%
Jessy w 😂. But yes, it is very challenging and I love it. I'm currently at 85% completion going for 100. Are u trying for 100% too?
Awesome Work. Thanks for this great mission.
Just a good note guys there are no checkpoints in this mission. be careful. I got to the last tank and died because it wasnt stuck like i had expected haha. Nice guide though props :)
I fell in love with this game in mission
A ton of restarts and frustration but finally got the S rank and all the task. thanks a lot for the videos Kiwi :D
I’m not shitting you all . I went and did this mission first try and got up to the point where two tanks and a helicopter shows up . I tried to push my luck with the Grom but got blown to shreds by the helicopter
and 1:00 that missile attack tank. I try so many time, still can't attack tank successfully.
Thanks for this guide, it helped me a lot.
Your video was really helpful to complete all task at once, thanks a lot!!!
Holy shit this is a crazy mission. Sounded like you didn't take your first breathe until around after the ten minute mark. There really is no way to do this mission objectives all on the first time without having prior knowledge of everyone. Not to mention which knowledge of what missions are time sensitive. When I did this the first time, I didn't know about the prisoners (except for the one called out), so I just took my time and actually extracted all the vehicles (or at least all but one or two.) Which makes me wonder; how long do you take planning out these missions? Much appreciate the all the hard work and time put in.
+Damian Clark This mission was the of the hardest mission to do in one play through (so far, Still have to do the extreme version). I did the same as you on my first play through, then came back when I had the Fulton I needed. Spent about 2 hours looking for all the prisoners and the 3 tanks. Then 2 to 3 hours trying to find a way of getting them all in one play though. I was just about to give up on doing it in one play through then I thought of the way that you see in the video. Then another hour or 3 to execute it without dying or killing a prisoner.
There was dancing and fist pumping happening after seeing that S Rank :D
TimeTravelKiwi Well all the props to you for putting in the hard work. Your videos so deserve more views. It definitely seems that more important than being stealthy, it matters more how fast you get the mission done and I doubt there's a faster way then what you did.
That's the flaw in this game's scoring system. It requires foreknowledge of the positions and rushing to it. That's why in many S-Rank videos the uploaders just beeline to the target and ignore everything lol.
You are the real boss. Just by doing the first things in this mission you can get eveything easy later. Thanks man
You can quickly and repeated mash the unlock button on any door to unlock the door faster. Can’t believe not many people know about that. DO IT! 💪🏻
best way to do this mission is just finish it with as many tanks as you can get and then just watch this video and don't ever look back at this mission objectives
Really enjoy walk throughs that have the person talking just to explain why they do things a certain way really helps
I finally platinumed red dead redemption 2 and now I’m ready for mgsv I just need 3 trophies(S-rank trophy, mission task trophy, and all key items and blueprints trophy) and platinum i avoid it for so long
Fuck this mission. What were the developers thinking? Would adding a fucking checkpoint have been so difficult?
maybe what's hard is to decide where/when you spawn when you spawn at a checkpoint. because the tanks are always moving.
That was really helpful.. Damn, thanks man.
thank you for timestamping the objectives
Tactical Espionage Operations? None of these, lol, but nice vids, no way to do all the task in this mission in a stealth way, tho!
OMG!!! I can't believe this!! After attempts to do this, my score was 198365, and i got my S rank!!!!! I though for sure that i was going to get a A or B rank for many combat alerts and kills. Wow dude thank you!!! You got a subscriber!!
this is...insanely good...thanks for making the guide
+mj No problem mate, it took me ages to get everything right :)
TimeTravelKiwi well i'm damn impressed so far at how perfect it can be. can't wait for your future videos. also if you could say um less that'd be even more perfect x)
hahaha, Yea I have noticed I say that a lot :)
I have an S Class Intel guy i lovingly call TimeTravelKiwi because holy crap would you make a great intel member with how well you explain and demonstrate these All Task Missions! Thanks a ton even in 2023!
Very impressive gameplay. Well done!
Me again. I got the extreme version of this mission second time. It's a lot easier when you know what you're doing, and this video was very helpful.
👍
Thanks for Video! You're the Best! I finally got it, kill 1 Tank and Win. (I blew up the Vehicle with the prisoner Twice and Lost 2 Times!) Just started the Game, now finally after researching the Rocket Launcher, Today I will go after a Tank, but I've been doing very well with the Grenade Launcher shooting down all vehicles!
Thanks, i never had the idea to climb up in the Transporter.
I stamped it up as an bug.
11:00-11:18 So, basically that rocket launcher is the Gjallarhorn? Sweet.
Destiny
SO HELPFUL that you have a timestamp on your tasks :').
That's some awesome playing there mate to get them all in one go!
With a armour vehicle alerted, don’t fulton behind them because you can be knocked down whilst they back up.
This is one of the big reasons why mgs fans deteste this game so much. You pulled off the mission with incredible skill and precision and it was very impressive to watch
But it was utter chaos!!, blowing up people in vehicles, darting all over the map like a lunatic, getting detected all over the shop, these actions SHOULD have cost you dearly.. Not to mention that realistically the player is meant to understand that this mission can't be realistically completed flawlessly first time mainly due to the point in the game where it's given to us. And that's frustrating and a little depressing.
I can understand that. I'm new to the franchise, I only played a demo of MGS on PS1 way back, and MGS V: Ground Zeros before I played this so I don't know how the other games are played.
But if you are only up to this part in the game, then I just would like to let you know that this mission is an outlier, this is one of the only missions that force you to be chaotic and I think it's a learning tool, just to show you that you can play this way if you want. I played the rest of the game as stealthy as I could, but this mission requires chaos.
I am with you on the fact that you will have to come back to some missions because you will need better gear to complete a mission task or two. Thats annoying.
Just my point of view as someone new to the franchise that got the platinum trophy and you might not agree with but wanted to let you know that this mission is not the norm.
Yeah good point. Other than 'a quiet exit' I can't think of any other missions that are actually like this. And it does do a good job of showing you just how much of a wrecking machine you can be.
Thank you so very, very much. This is like one of those missions in games that i found impossible to complete without a helpful video. Mainly because of those stupid armored vehicles. I had like defeated almost all of them and suddenly two appears on my map NEAR THE END OF of the mission area. I got so pissed of, like who designed this mission? xP
Yes I will try it tomorrow
anyone else not getting the 3 tanks show up on replays? think this mission must have a bug
I believe you need to save the prisoner in the vehicle to get the third tank to show up. That is what I have been told by others in the comments.
if you struggled like me, just knock out one tank and do all side objectives you possibly can in one run, then exfiltrate. rinse and repeat.
The only side objective you can't complete doing in this manner is extract the 3 tanks.
In order to do that, extract or eliminate all 7 armored vehicles, then extract all 3 tanks afterwards
Thx, this was a great help. Heavy respect for doing all the Tasks at same time!
Thanks for this video but at start it would be nice if you showed where you choose to land with the chopper. (It seems to be the north landing zone here).
+Nhilzer I use the south east landing zone in the video. I do show the map as I'm landing, I thought that would of been enough when I made the video but it must not be.
+TimeTravelKiwi Sorry then, maybe I didn't pay enought attention. Thanks anyway for another nice helping video. Since then I finished all the tasks of the game so thank you again. I think it was mission 48 (when you have to extract tanks and protect Quiet) that was a hell of a mission but finally with parasite armour suit it worked.
Nhilzer No problem mate, congrats on completing all the tasks :)
This is by far the harder mission to achieve all tasks and S rank
S rank is eazy there is a glicht on 1 minut yoy have S rank search eazy way S rank mission 9
Awesome. This is the only video I have seen that shows how all tasks for this mission can be done in one deployment with an S rank. The 20 thumbs down must be from frustrated failures who, like me, find it too difficult to copy. If you want an S rank then forget the prisoners, land in the north east and focus on the massive bonus for eliminating all 11 vehicles. If you want all tasks in a single play through then this video shows the key first steps: land in the east and quickly eliminate the vehicle heading away from you to the north (where it will exist the area), then rescue the prisoner who will soon be killed by the soldiers hunting him. After that, you can leave the four soldiers and prisoner wandering in the desert until later, making it easier to focus on the prisoner in the jeep, the launcher in the truck, and the other armored vehicles which will leave the area. The helicopter, three tanks, four soldiers, two jailed and two wandering prisoners, can all be delbt with at leisure after the timed offensive is over. Respect to TimeTravelKiwi.
due to the fact that d horse is completely unreliable when it comes to time based stuff like this, i think im just gonna land north and place a mine on the road above the outpost, then head south and drop another mine somewhere between the outpost and the guard post, probably another mine on the 3rd truck so i can sneak behind the guys looking for the prisoner, then head back to the jeep to throw a decoy in front of it, once thats over i feel like balance will be restored to the universe
I'd recommend using the 3 minute method by just extracting 1 armored vehicle and then getting out without trace for getting the S rank, then use Javelin with infinity bandana to achieve all objectives.
Man I do this basically flawlessly, but everytime I try to jump down to the water for the prisoner, I die. Its hella frustrating
It gets really scary when the Gunship is your last target, firing rockets at you and deploying flears all over the place.
Luckily they did not distract the missiles :D
I know it's been some years but I can't emphasize enough how much I hate the tasks of this mission. So frustrating with the time limit and prisoners wandering around and all of that. Just... urgh,I swear that this are the only tasks that are preventing me from getting the platinum over all these years.
you know whats fun? following this guide because i was missing either a vehicle or a prisoner, not even expecting S rank at all and instead I've actually managed to get it without even being spotted once btw and then, getting soft locked in the loading screen after boarding the helicopter. im writing this while the icon is still rotating, I'll now try a couple of things before giving up while not knowing the consequences. what will happen will determine if, after so many years, this mission will remain uncompleted at 100% for at least another year.
edit: DAMN IT COUNTED, I DON'T KNOW HOW. APPARENTLY IT SAVED BECAUSE OF THE SERVERS OR SOMETHING, I TRIED EVERYTHING AND THE GAME JUST FROZE
FINALLY, I'M OVER THIS MISSION
HELL Y E S
Good lord. No wonder I couldn't figure this one out right off the bat. I keep getting pissed, then saying fuckit and killing everyone before I bounce out
Just amazing!!😵😵
nice guide man thanks
I find your way to start the mission way too risky. There were several close calls where you almost missed an armored verhicle, you encountered tons of guards and killed most of them... without that much luck of a timing one had to do this several times to succeed.
It's highly recommended to start this complex mission from the north not from the south and work one's way southward, from where all the 7 APCs will be heading toward you (instead away from you with you to have to chase them) with the exception of the jeep carrying the prisoner and the truck with the CGM rocket launcher, which both move north to south.
Players who don't want to rush like insanes and buy themselves a bit more time (this mission doesn't depend on time at all) should deploy north of the Yakho Oboo Supply Outpost.
To get an S-rank they can set up an effective ambush point on the road and wait for the enemy to come to them without running around like mad. The truck (at around the 5 min remaining mark) and the jeep will drive south from Aabe Shipaf Ruins and can also easily be stopped there with D-Horse as a roadblock, with decoys or (even better) with EMN mines if one has such researched already and equipped.
Except for the last two of the 7 APC till here not a single shot needs to be fired. Those last
2 APCs may only reach the Yakho Oboo Supply Outpost in the last few minutes which is why one might have to rush out to destroy them as soon as the truck with the CGM launcher was captured. Since one of the last three APCs is all the time parked inside of Yakho Oboo one could plant an AT-mine right in front of the compounds gateway. This mine will take care of this APC once he starts to leave Yakho Oboo and head north as well, which's hence the closest to disappear from the map in the north.
Given that those last two APC wouldn't reach the ambush in time (the last 2 minutes), it would be wise to head toward them. Once they're destroyed the gunship and the 3 MBTs will appear at the scene. The MBTs can be destroyed or looted, doesn't matter at all for the S-rank, the own chopper can be called in to a landing zone where the gunship is cycling around and can take care of the enemy's chopper... This does not count as air support, this is just an extraction call which can be cancelled after Pequad downed the gunship, otherwise he will disappear by himself when nobody arrives at the LZ to board the chopper. Thus the player has all the time he wants now to get the 3 MBTs, if he doesn't want to destroy them. That will perfectly do for the S-rank, since after 11 vehicles are destroyed and/or extracted, no alarms were risen, maybe even perfect stealth, no kills etc. it will give at least 160,000 and adding. Only two mission objectives would be left (given, the 3 MBTs were extracted, not destroyed): get all 6 prisoners plus the 4 elite soldiers chasing one of those prisoners.
That's the safest bet for unexperienced players or for those who first want to get familiar with the scenario without putting too much effort into it to no avail at the end because they got eventually killed anyway. If you fail to get all 7 APCs you can easily restart from there, plant your stuff to block the road and wait for the vehicles. Once familiar with the pattern and the 15 minutes (wich are actually enough to get them all) the S-rank should be no problem at all.
After that one can try it again starting from the north, taking out the first parked APC inside Yakho Oboo Supply Outpost, working toward the center of the map, where the second APC appears making his way toward Yakho Oboo. Stop him with anything you used to stop those vehicles when you ambushed them (decoy, D-Horse, EMN mine) and send it to motherbase. Two more APCs at about 1 km behind the second one will be heading toward Yakho Oboo, light them up with your rocket launcher and keep on working your way to the respective valley where the 4 soldiers are looking for the prisoner, located east of Outpost 12 and Lamar Khaate Palace. They will be on the hidden road that leads to the Outpost 15. Extracting them should be simple enough so long as you either stun them, put them to sleep, or perform CQC on them and send them to Mother Base. Once they're gone the escaped prisoner in the valley will be safe for now.
Interim result: 3 APCs destroyed + 1 APC extracted (3 APCs remaining), 4 soldiers extracted, 1 prison escapee safe for now just not extracted yet.
Now it's high time to get back from the valley to the centre of the map to take out the next APC wich happens to be travelling right on the same road north where in the meanwhile also the jeep with the other fast travelling prisoner is incoming southwards. Just stay on the right side of the riverbed. No need to hurry too much. The jeep will stop after you shot the APC successfully trying to investigate what happened giving you enough time to take out the jeep drivers and fulton the jeep with the prisoner inside. Done.
Since all this happens near the bridge across the river it's now a good opportunity to also rescue the prisoner wandering the riverbed just north of guard post #12. He will either be walking under the bridge or lying down near the end of the riverbed in the grass. It's just the same direction where you gotta go back anyway to approach the last two incoming APCs from Lamar Khaate Palace on the opposite side of the river.
Destroy them from far away as possible, for right after you gotta go back north again where the truck with the CGM weapon will arrive (at about 500 to 600 meters away from you). Stop him (maybe shooting at him should do), grab the launcher, extract the truck to not waste it and turn around again to get back to the meanwhile incoming tanks.
Result for now: 6 APCs destroyed, 1 APC extracted, 2 prisoners extracted, 4 soldiers extracted, weapon of the transport truck secured + now 3 main battle tanks and 1 gunship incoming to hunt you down :)
Now it's up to the player depending on which objectives he already completed before: if he took his time to extract the 3 tanks during the first (short) S-rank walkthrough he could destroy them now to speed things up a little bit.
If he doesn't want to waste them and risk to get spotted and killed while trying to extract them (again?): just shoot them down.
But since the tanks are not going anywhere it's highly recommended to first deal with the gunship and down it using the CGM launcher. It should still be sufficient enough to also destroy the 3 tanks later on, if one doesn't want to extract them (again). If not, now it's time to ambush each of the 3 tanks bringing them to a stop and extract them calmly. Not a too big deal.
Take care of the remaining 4 prisoners when all else is done. The player has all the time in the world to free them, he will even get the S-rank again, he just has to make sure not to die when in case he gets detected. Shouldn't be too hard either.
I love this mission, it's highly complex and not nearly as pressed for time as it might seem at first glance.
Your walkthrough looks impressive and is quite nail-biting to watch it, very well done! But I assume most people will fail more often than not if they deploy south and try to work their way northwards, hence it can become very frustrating if they're not as fast and lucky as you were.
Andy Kashu holy fuck that was a long comment lol
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Make a video.
You're amazing man!
I think D-Horse is the real hero of this video, poor thing gets hit pretty bad a few times 😂😂
Out of breath! Watching all task lol
You make this look easy I'm about to do this mission it's gonna be a pain
The worst part about this mission is that if you mess up even a little bit you have to restart from the begining
Fuck this missions task and s rank.
Besides that, great video man. Really helped me with one of the hardest missions to 100%
A good alternative is to play this mission the same way it is shown on mission 34 from our Kiwi master to extract a maximum of armoured vehicles instead of destroying them. Check there my comments in addition... The worm hole Fulton device will however be very useful to extract some prisoners in safety (you will need to achieve mission 31 to get it, so come back to it later to finish S rank more easily). 😉
already has a 4* GROM.. i mean. At this point in the game my base can't research it that far. I tried using the grom for the mission before that, where you have to kill 2 tanks and an officer, and i kept shooting at those tanks with my 1* grom and did't do a dent.
The Prisoner mission was the hardest thing for me. Let me just point out that if you have the Sealth ability fully upgraded to level 6 then completing all missions on S rank should be no problem at all. Plus, I believe you get a speedo outfit that allows you to move faster than the Flash if you compete in all missions with S rank. One last thing I forgot to mention is this is a really good mission to farm for vehicles in. You just need the EMP to place down and the Stealth and Speedo outfit and you are complete. I farm nearly 80 Vehicles back to back by just doing this and selling them for a high cost for GMP
Thank you so much!
Made it to the 6th prisoner. Died because when I mounted d horse he ran off a cliff. There are 0 checkpoints on this mission.
This mission is beyond fucking ridiculous I want to put my controller through the fucking monitor rn.
>extract all the tanks and shoot down gunship
> get spotted by a random guy at the end
>B RANK
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
thank you for your share. and there are one problem for me. since I'm a Taiwanese, my english no so good. other video with subtitle and I can auto translate into Traditional chinese. but in this mission 9 video, there is no subtitle. I'm hard to understand how to do those mission. since your description very important for I can understand what should I do.
Don't know how you pulled off the jump into the river with the horse without any harm but I've tried it two times now and died both of the times. :(
Just did the Extreme version with this mission and happy to report I did it all objectives too. I did however go at night to help avoid detection, and wore Battle Dress that probably saved my life a couple of times. No reflex mode, had to take some extra precautions. I'll also say that the vehicles seemed tougher, and that I'd only use one of the first two missile launchers (RPG or the other unguided one) as for the lock ones you need to be within 200 meters which isn't always an option. But yeah, thanks again.
You can tap the button repeatedly to unlock faster
I always do this mission, ignoring all the mission tasks, and am completely unable to destroy all the vehicles in time. I get to them as fast as humanly possible, and destroy them quickly, but there's always one that leaves the mission area. It's the one that spawns near the vehicle containing the rocket launcher. For some reason it spawns there and leaves almost immediately. Since it leaves, I don't technically destroy "all" of the vehicles, so I never get the Mission Task for doing everything without a supply drop, nor do the 3 tanks at the end show up.
+gamecrazy1750 Another thing. In this video, you used the Grom-11 rocket launcher, grade 4. You took out the first armored vehicle with a singular shot. I used the exact same weapon, yet the armored vehicle went down in THREE shots, instead.
+gamecrazy1750 The first vehicle can be taken out in one shot if you shoot under the vehicle. If you check out my video for the extreme version of this mission, I do this in a much more manageable way but I do use higher level gear.
Holy christ. I did it. Finally, but I'll be dammed, this mission is super irritating
the mission is insane bro💀💀
I've gotten to the part with the gunship and back up tanks but only 2 tanks appear on the map so I can't do the 'Extract 3 tanks' mission task
Friday is Perfect Stealth
I can't find that 3rd tank doesn't show up on the map
this is the only mission i cant complete. i requested a grenade launcer but i have no option...
It would be helpful if you showed the map when your at the location of getting a prisoner because this was very confusing since things were in different locations
+Ancient Warrior Yea I did rush through this mission a bit too fast. Have you checked the description? I added a bunch of more info in there to hopefully with that.
spent 3 hours on this mission and still haven’t completed all objectives OR gotten S rank, this one mission might be the thing stoppering me from getting plat
Just do each objective separately, you don't have to do them all in one go. And the S rank is actually pretty simple, watch a video of someone else doing it and you'll get it no problem.
