about the quarantine ( spoiler maybe )

Do I have to quarantine all soldiers who speak that cocacamba language ? so far I quarantined 230 soldiers and I´m tired of it

Kikongo is probably the answer you're looking for. Take a look at the first quarantined staff members and find the common language they all speak.

[Greb]

Quarantine any soldier with the "Kikongo" language, even if it isn't the primary (speech bubble with three dots in it) to be 100% sure. It won't prevent all deaths, but it will reduce the impact.

It's not a random language as some early guides might suggest, it's stated later that it was in fact the Kikongo strain, during a cutscene.

yes I know, what it causes, but I´m asking if I have to quarantine all of them, if there is progress in story, that solves this instead if quarantining everyone

Quarantine will reduce the amount of people who die (if you do it correctly) while you mess around. Like a random event, during this plague time, randomly soldiers are going to keep dying until you progress through the story. I believe it's only three missions in, so rush through as quickly as you can, and then everything can be lovely once again.

There's actually a forum post somewhere active right now about a guy who went AFK in the ACC and came back to most of his Motherbase dead...so time is of the essence. Have fun :D

Does this begin when you extract the two scientists, one male and one female?

Major spoilers for the quarantine part of the game. Read at your own risk.



Last warning; major spoilers for the bit of the game where the quarantine comes into play are in the next paragraph. Skip over this if you don't want to know how to deal with the situation, and when it's resolved.




All of the carriers speak Kikongo, and yes. Quarantine everyone that speaks Kikongo, and /immediately/ do the next three story missions. Quarantining the Kikongo speakers will drastically reduce the amount of your staff that randomly die from the cause of the quarantine. Once you finish the next three missions, the infection will be taken care-of. Do the story missions quick, and don't stop for anything, because the random staff deaths on Mother Base are set to a timer. Every two or three minutes, I believe, it infects people, with more if you haven't quarantined the Kikongo speakers. The infected die pretty quickly, so you really are in a race against time.

That's the first sign of it, yes. Your soldiers will start coughing around the base, and there's some serious foreshadowing in the debriefing for the scientist rescue mission, indicating that you just brought two infected over without realizing it. If you have to, move all of the Kikongo speakers into the Waiting Room, so you can easily quarantine them all when the infection hits.

Just start doing main missions until u done with plague.
I did so, lost not much in stuff.

Yeah, if you're fast you can just skip quarantining people altogether. Anyone that plays slow and stealthy, though, should probably just do the quarantine, unless they have 1000+ staff already.
