"Memories.....I want to give them to you....
"You too have known loss, and that loss torments you still. You hope hatred might someday replace the pain, but it never goes away...

Stealth Mode changes planned for Metal Gear Solid 5
It's a long shot at best but it does seem a strange Twitter spree to go on for no apparent reason.
Konami have released some confirmed plans on how they hope to update the game in November, including changes to FOB missions, new weapons, as well as Grade 8 online development.
Players will see changes to the user interface of the PF Rating screen to help get the most out of FOB missions. once the updated UI is in place, Konami are planning to add a PF Rating Event scheduled for November 2015.
A statement from Konami explains: "The update also features new weapons and items to help turn missions in your favor. Following on from the addition of the current highest development grade (Grade 7), you will now be able to develop Grade 8 equipment as well. 
"What’s more, these will be treated as online development items, so their development will continue even while you are away from your game system or PC. You can even use MB Coins to shorten the development time. 
 
"There’s never a chance to relax when your FOBs could come under attack at any time, but now, some of the best ever security devices are here to put your mind at ease.
"All of the newly-added security devices are online development items, so their development will continue even while you are away from your game system or PC. You can even use MB Coins to shorten the development time."
It means the inclusion of new gun cameras, new anti-reflex training for staff to shorten how long the mode lasts for invaders, while Stealth Mode will now cloak your location on iDroid devices during infiltration missions.
