Metal Gear Solid V: 20 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do

15. Recruit The Wandering Soldiers Instantly

The wandering Mother Base soldiers are some of the flat-out weirdest enemies in the entire game, but they do tie into the larger story eventually - despite their fairly alien-like animations. As they're former troops of the base you had in Ground Zeroes, you can't kill them, and you'll end up emptying hundreds of stun rounds into them as they dart off like Attack on Titan's titular creatures - unless you approach in a cardboard box. Do so undetected, and rather than have the soldier run away, they'll turn around, notice it's "The great Big Boss!" inside, before saluting and surrendering immediately. You can also play the tape 'Love Deterrence' through an upgraded iDroid's speaker to woo them into submission.
