If the player goes to Mother Base on their birthday, the player will be greeted by a majority of Diamond Dogs personnel singing Happy Birthday to Big Boss.In reciprocation, Kojima issued a personal message on Launch Day, thanking all the fans who had been there along the way and saying that they were as much responsible for the development of the game as he was Clearly, he's aware of the fan appreciation and response to what Konami has done, and this was a great nod to that.However, almost immediately upon its release, a great number of steam reviewers left reviews that simply stated "A Hideo Kojima Game" A meta-example, after Hideo Kojima left/was forced out of Konami, they removed the words "A Hideo Kojima Game" from the game's box art.Whoever finished up preparing the new Facility seems to have made DAMN sure that, if History Repeats yet again, the personnel have a CHANCE to evacuate this time around. One easily missed is a small, background detail from a recent game-play trailer (the one showing the FOB resource raiding mechanic) the design of the FOB, and probably the new Mother Base proper has designated berths for lifeboats.For the master of the Chronic Backstabbing Disorder who usually seems to only care about the real Big Boss, even with the sacrifice of his own memories it's still a nice gesture on the usually self-serving Ocelot's part. The fact that Ocelot isn't even loyally serving the real Big Boss but his Body Double instead is a small one.We get to see a different side to the devious Manipulative Bastard that has only been alluded to in the previous games, that of Big Boss's loyal subordinate who would go to the ends of the Earth for the man he loved and idolized, even readily altering his own memories and serving Venom Snake to sell the lie even further. It's nice to see that even after all he's been through, Snake can still love DD the way he does. There's even a context command to pet and praise DD for doing a good job, and you can tell by his voice that Snake really means it. The way he wags his tail when you parachute him in, how excited he always seems to be by Snake's side. DD's still warming hearts even on a mission.It's stuff like this that really helps to reinforce the idea that Ocelot was Big Boss's one and only true friend.

The scene where Ocelot waves goodbye to Big Boss as he and D.D ride off in the helicopter together, it's such a brief moment but the slow deliberate pace at which he does it makes it seem all that much more heartfelt.
