With the latest update to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, gamers can now purchase in-game insurance that will cover their Forward Operating Base (FOB). Players can already pay real money to expand or build additional FOBs. It sounds cheap in small amounts, but if you intend to play the online multiplayer for any amount of time you’ll either be buying a lot of insurance, or at the mercy of other players who can take and take without experiencing any real losses themselves…except from their actual wallets. If your staff or materials are stolen while you have FOB insurance, the thief will still get those stolen goods, but you will have them instantly replaced by identical staff and materials. Now, you can rest easy with FOB insurance (paid service).
