How to Save in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater
Saving in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is not done through menus or checkpoints like most games. Instead, you must use the Codec and call a specific frequency to record progress.
How to Unlock Saving
After recovering your pack at the start of the Virtuous Mission, Major Zero briefs you on the mission.
You are then introduced to Para-Medic, who explains she will record your mission data.
This unlocks the ability to save your game through the Codec.
How to Save
Press Down on the D-Pad to bring up your memorized radio frequencies.
The save channel is set by default to the top center slot for easy access.
The manual frequency for saving is 140.96.
Call Para-Medic on this channel, then choose the save option to record progress.
Important Notes
Reloading a save places you at the start of the current area, not the exact spot where you saved.
Saving too often can prevent you from earning certain special titles, since some rank conditions require limited saves.
Use saves wisely if you are aiming for completionist ranks or challenge runs.
Final Blurb
To save in Metal Gear Solid Delta, call Para-Medic on Codec frequency 140.96. She records your data, but saves always reload at the start of the area, so plan ahead. Strategic saving is especially important if you want special titles tied to limited saves.
