We need those stinkin' patches!

You can unlock nearly every side op in Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes by beating the main mission, but the final one takes a little extra effort on your part; you also need to find the "XOF" patches that were thrown out of the helicopter during the intro story sequence. If you're having trouble locating all nine patches, or any at all, check out our guide for the exact locations of every XOF patch in and around Camp Omega to unlock the "Deja Vu" mission on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, or the "Jamais Vu" mission on Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

XOF Patch #1: Cliffs

The first patch is located close to your starting point during the main mission. Simply turn around and explore the cliff-edge to your right while facing the ocean and you'll find the first XOF patch laying in wait.

XOF Patch #2: Tents

For the second patch, enter the camp and head down towards a group of tents to your left. Right after you enter that area, examine the large, flat trash pile to find the second patch

XOF Patch #3: Box top

The third patch is located north from the group of tents. Simply pick the lock protecting three white electrical boxes (pictured left) and climb the one to the left of the entrance to collect the third patch.

XOF Patch #4: Helipad

The next three patches are nearby the admin building and the heliport, north of the previous patch. First, look for a puddle near the middle helipad in front of the admin building to find the fourth XOF patch.

XOF Patch #5: Drainage tunnel

Next, head further north towards the admin building. Look for the drainage tunnel behind a collection of scaffolding, and step inside to find the fifth patch.

XOF Patch #6: Chimney

From there, head west along the building and enter the red door to the right of the large, front gate. Climb the white electrical boxes to your left immediately after entering, and leap to the nearby rooftop to find the sixth patch laying on the side of the exhaust chimney.

XOF Patch #7: Security guard station

That does it for the patches near the admin building. Head east towards the fence, and take the dirt road underneath the bridge to the south. Take the first path to your left after passing under the bridge, and then you should see a small white security guard station. Climb on top of it to find the seventh XOF patch.

XOF Patch #8: Prison

Return to the road you just came from and head south, then take the first path to your left towards the prison where Chico is being held. Dispatch the two nearby guards and pick the lock on the main entrance to the fenced prison area. Take one step in after you pick the lock and you should immediately find the eighth patch.

XOF Patch #9: Drop and roll

Finally, the ninth patch. It's not hidden in the base; it's actually hidden on Big Boss! Get into the crawl position. Simultaneously aim your weapon and move to the left or right, and press in the analog stick as if to sprint and you'll begin to roll. Continue rolling for 5-10 seconds, and eventually, the final patch will pop off of your body and onto the ground.
