Stealth camo with a visible shield on his back :v
Players be like: “Whose shield is this?” – right before getting CQC’d.
srsly, that’s an awesome update! although too late for most players but nonetheless great!
I’m still waiting an update for helicopter travels in the field.
The new items are coming one by one week after week, or maybe after 2 weeks. That’s not good. They will be really expensive.
The last time I played, over 100 soldiers were gone, and the game told me I don’t play enough. That’s when I decided to try out Dark Souls. Metal Gear will never be the same.
Sounds like the game is right to me… 😉
Rip Isao Tomita 🙁
I look forward to that non-lethal machine gun.
That Fulton launcher should come in handy as well.
Best thing in Peace Walker IMO
Hopefully it’s easy to develop. Seems like the revolver will be pretty easy at a level 3 rating. I’d love to suppress the NL machine gun and rain rubber hell on my foes.
I think it would be perfect for those moments when you get caught by a bunch of guards (either SP or FOB) and you want to fight them off without killing anyone. I just can’t figure out why it took them nearly nine months to think of this.
Yeah, pretty much. It’ll be fun to screw around with nonetheless. We needed more nonlethal assault weapons.
fuck yes
Fulton cannon is baaack! Peace walker memories
This is a good update, not bad Konami, not bad at all.
Ocelot’s gun without dual wield?! Pssst, not impressed.
*Alert* – MGSV TPP just received a Famitsu Award !
Don’t know which one, my japanese is too weak…
Made a screen capture, looks like Konami is receiving it and so booooooo’d on the streams comments… xD
Turns out Ken is following the ceremony, I don’t know if he is physically there…

The riot LMG is not in the game. I’m developing a non-lethal RPG but it doesn’t clarify that it shoots Fultons…
Can anyone here tell me why since May 10th I’m still not seeing the non lethal AAM machine gun the Fulton warhead rocket launcher Dummy Decoy FOM emitter or the Battery Vaporizer UAV Drone listed anywhere the development list even though it’s been over a month since the update?
Did you get them yet?
