MGS 5 Online Resource Selling?

[Lambs2Lions]

So all of my cars and most of my fuel, etc went into the online storage when i logged in. Umm what? Why can i no longer sell online resources. How do i earn the gmp needed for development?

No idea. Online resources and vehicles pretty much as good as gone at this point. Not sure what they were thinking with this update...

Here's my thoughts on the matter:

Nothing about the game makes me want to spent real currency, I am not even talking about real currency because as it stands, you can't convert online resources into usable GMP anymore. Please don't turn this into a micro transaction rant because i really don't care. I just want to now if anyone has an idea of how to convert(sell) online resources such as fuel of precious metals and turn them in for GMP.

Edit: I had 20+ of each vehicle and 60+ of each stationary weapon, most of which is now in online and I was saving it to sell at a later date for development and base expansion costs :( I didn't even get any of it from online -.-

The online resource will refill the MB rosource after you lost them, bu not instantly.

I rather they never made the change because everything i HAD was obtained from offline and not online -.-

you can use them for development, and if you sell all offline resources, then some of FOB resources will be transfered to your base. fine I guess, but I'd like to be in more control of this

That's flaky at best, I still have 12k precious metal on FOB while I have 2k precious on motherbase, games has yet to transfer any of them towards my MB.

when you spend it it will transfer, and you can still develop without waiting... don't know the time needed to transfer resources, simply noticed it and went like, meh, ok... but I'd like info on FOB GMP, cause it doesn't seem balanced, MB Gmp is always used first, would prefer 50-50 over this strange math cause you never know what you might find when maintenance time comes

[Lambs2Lions]

I can't even check or use my Online GMP. I sold all of my precious metals and none from FOB got transfered, waiting over an hour now.

it only transfers up to 3 vehicles/emplacements to your offline storage. it takes forever to sell through any reasonable number.

it seems like they did it to curb the number of people playing offline only.

but they explicitly tell people that if they don't want to get invaded or do any invading, to play offline.

it's ridiculous.

well you can't sell any insurance to those offline, can you?
