It is very handy for interrogating, yeah.  I've actually woken up a few enemies just to force them to surrender, since that doesn't have a timer.  Though they will get up if a combat alert is raised (or another enemy finds them).

Yeah, if you can't fulton but you don't think an enemy will come by and wake them up it's better to leave them surrendered, cause it lasts forever.

There's a weakness for the riot smg.  Sleeping enemies don't always raise an alert, stunned or knocked out enemies do.

Nobody can raise an alert if everyone's stunned...

Anyone can call on you, heavies are just much more likely to. You can immediately tell who's going to try and be a hero because you can't tell them to lie down, and their arms slowly lower. In addition, if you CQC at the moment the knife comes out you'll just wreck them anyway.
Huh, I always thought this was just a glitch. I thought that if you lowered your gun they would do this, and I thought that maybe the game kept thinking I wasn't aiming at them.

In other news I just got a 'fulton certificate' for kidnapping a lot of people which unlocked a whole bunch of new fulton stuff. MORE AMMO? YES PLZ

Playing as a guy who can sprint really fast is really beneficial to my style of picking people off then carrying them far away so enemies don't see the fulton. There's probably a faster way but.. lol

If they think they can get away with it they'll do it while you're aiming.  Heavies will do it almost every time, they know you can't hurt them.

If you upgrade your arm enough it makes you crawl (and sprint) faster, among other things.
Also I got the marking upgrade... pretty early. I repeat missions and mark people a lot.
It really helps to be able to tell the difference between decoys and soldiers early on, but when they're completely still and aren't wearing riot gear / a helmet / a riot shield / NVGs.. it's super obvious.

D-Dog doesn't auto mark decoys and yeah, they're kind of obvious anyway.  I've had a couple scares but I use the dog so much that I don't even react to unmarked enemies anymore unless they're moving.

The buddies are kinda amazing, I don't even know which one is best.  I guess it's situational, which is perfect.

Emmerich...
That's the dude with the paralysed legs, right?
If so, trust me, there's a reason Snake is so mean to him.

I haven't played Peace Walker or Ground Zero so it's kinda hard not to see him as a slightly older Otacon with a leg problem.
Even though I know some of Otacon's uh... interesting family history.

He is a relative of Otacon, if I recall.

It's slick.  If you have the horse go in the road it'll wreck cars that drive over it.

D-Dog is kind of overpowered on prisoner missions.  LIke I mentioned before, he spots prisoners from so far away that I've actually broken the sequence on a couple prisoner missions

He's literally Otacon's dad. They have the same last name, they look alike...

Quick google search brings up some kind of anime thing... Zone of the Enders? That's a Kojima thing, right? I remember in MGS4 you got a gun that you held in the air to charge it and Snake yells "Sunlight!" in reference to Boktai or whatever it was called.

The Jehuty is the main robot suit of the Zone of Enders series.
