How advanced are cybernetics in this? Like, augments for the body or fully functional replacement limbs?

I'd guess it'd be the same level of things you'd see in MGS. I think the maximum level of tech would be something like MGS4-period Raiden.

Pretty much, but I'm toning things down a bit. You won't be holding back larger-than-aircraft-carrier-sized submarines with your cybernetic body, and you might block [i]some[/i] bullets with a blade, etc, but not a whole unit of people machine-gunning you at close range. I want there to be some challenge and danger, and things not to get to the more over-the-top limits that they did in some of the games. Also, it's good to have a level to aspire to and work towards, rather than starting off as TEH AWSUMEST. 

Not that I'm implying that you were going for that though, just merely trying to make it clear. 
My character will probably go up tomorrow, depending on the site being working. I was thinking of making them KSK (German Special Forces) or a Navy SEAL. Or cross-trained as both.
