Bought the Molotok-68 rifle with my mosquito event points...and it's not showing up in my inventory?

I havent played MGSV in a long time, but if you purchased a weapon from the FOB event rewards; what you got its a blueprint. You still need to develope said weapon.

reading is hard man, word "blueprint" is at the end of sentence, too far away

[kazaric]

wait so what you mean is after all the super elite high octane perfect stealth zero kills uber pacifist enviromentally friendly mosquito base infiltrations only netted me a crappy blueprint and not the actual gun? wtf meight WTF MEIGHT no meight this is not acceptable

You need to have enough GMP for it to show up in the Development window.

it's hard to switch tabs down to sniper rifles and look for it

The weapon is powerful it doesn't make any sense you can directly equip it when you just need one inviltration on mosquito base to get the points.

The point of those Events it to give the players the ability to develop the rewarded weapons, not unlocking them for immediate use. A bit of a let-down, but that's how it works.

did we get to use any weapon in the game that we haven't developed?

trough the story we chased blueprints for some special weapons and after we got the blueprints we got the chance to pay for development

just gaining grade 9 sniper on such easy FOB would be nonsense compared to that, or to anything

OP thought that the weapon would be available for deployment immediately, and not that the weapon had to be developed. Yes, it fits with the rest of game's mechanics of finding Blueprints and then developing the weapons, but then I got into situations where I have 4 online items being developed simultaneously, and I couldn't develop a single, Grade 1 camo that I got from an FOB Event because four items is the cap, even for those 1,000 GMP, five-minute development time suits.

That's a good point, why FOB camo is developed online I have no idea.

[No_Quarter]

that's only problem for people with less patience, and even for them there is a cure - MB coins...

that's how it works, FOB rewards are online rewards, it makes sense to develop them online. Not like those camo suits are something special, no special bonuses, just the same ol' fatigue with different textures

[J A F F A]

I don't think online developed camo is bad because I desperately can't wait to have another sh.tty camo I will never use, I think it's bad because it's a useless palette swapped item that counts against the total number of online developed items and makes me less likely to bother even doing that.

Wait until you see the development requirements for it.
