MGS 5: how to solve the problems of FOV and Black Screen / White squares issues
Here are some answers to common problems reported by many PC users even on the Konami’s official forums dedicated to the game.
Let's start with the problem with the FOV; is there a way to fix it? Unfortunately still no! The solution does not seem to be just around the corner from the network but come heartening information according to which someone would be working hard to resolve this issue.
Others, however, point out for the appearance of a black screen with big squared white and of being unable to play until after the reboot of the game and in some cases the system. To fix this issue, in the initial game settings, change the resolution and restart.

There are certain conditions that must be me in order to unlock Quiet shower scene.
First you must reach your bond with Quiet to the maximum level. Then also select Quiet as a companion for a mission (except those two missions mentioned above). Now here’s the fun part:
Look for a dumpster and get inside and smoke cigar for several days. Then look out through a riflescope from the dumpster until you see flies buzzing around your gun, then there is smell not only from the garbage containers, but also from Snakes body. Climb out of the barrel and check again, if you see flying around you. Return to the Mother Base. There you will already receive your buddy.
After you are landed at Mother Base, the shower scene with Quiet is triggered. If you want to experience the scene yourself, simply execute the above steps in the game.
