Is there such a thing as permanent demon snake?

[Lucian]

I normally play non-lethal myself but when farming the FOB event i went lethal for the sake of efficiency and time management. This naturally resulted in going demon snake and since then i have run white mamba about 16 times and rescued all child soldiers yet the blood from demon snake wont go away. Anyone else have this problem yet? A bug? Simply not running white maba enough?

you probably got too much demon points
I think dismantling nukes reduces even more demon points.

[Lucian]

Sadly i have 0 nukes since as i said i normally don't using ANY lethal methods of killing.

[No_Quarter]

you can steal them and dismantle them.
if you make them you will ge tmore demon points..

[Lucian]

Aye i know which is why i never made them. As for the stealing part i have no idea how to do that. Never even seen a player with nukes on my lists.

[No_Quarter]

nuke tab is bugged but you can find targets after some refreshing routine

Honestly i don't understand why they even added this mechanic in the first place. Punish people for killing in a game where over 80% of the unlockable tech and weapon choices are lethal.... Also going on 24 white maba runs now and still endless blood....

Just do the Refugee Rescue dispatch mission and forget about it. It resets your demon points to 0. Takes 6 days to complete, but no need to grind it away in any fashion.

Because, Metal Gear. The original game that started the franchise off in the late 80's. The snake your playing now is the enemy in that game and this is the progression to that. It's not a punishment, it's what he becomes.

I played the old metal gear 1 and 2. And i do not remember anyone being permanently covered in blood. (except maybe vamps face in 2)

I would only do the refugees rescue to reset my demon score to 0, any other methods just take too much efforts, 24 times white mamba? Holy chit it's like watching paint dry man, imagine after doing that 50 times in a row and Snake still remained bloody.

Till this day I don't fully understand why demon snake bothers people so much, I normally let it stay since it was so much fun killing, or use staff member, I do resets it via dispatch mission sometimes but it takes 6 days to do so while waiting I just continue to do whatever I want to, it takes around 1000 kills in fob to turn full demon, I'm like demon for the 7th times now. Lol

You're thinking Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2, not Metal Gear.

[Lucian]

I just hate how it covers every outfit you wear. All that money spent on developing nice armor or time spent farming event points for camo which all looks the darned same in demon snake form.... Also i agree completely with the watching paint dry bit....i feel like i want to pull my hair out right now but at the same time i dont want to spend 6 days of game time looking like crap. Would kill my enthusiasm for the game itself.

[Lucian]

Wait forgive my apparent ignorance but i was not aware there was something before Metal Gear Solid 1

It didn't bother me at all. I used a staff member the entire duration of the 6 days and never even saw it. What bothered me was 50K demon points for building nuke and it getting stolen the next day. That bothered me, but meh, live and learn.
