What if that "downloadable content" is the MGO beta?
I'd cry?
I would too because then we have to wait more
In watching MGO footage it most game types were very much tactical shooter.. I'd love to see a move closer to the MP in SC blacklist. There was online play that made stealth killing really feel rewarding
I have absolutely no problem with vehicles either though

i fully expect a summer-fall 2015 release at this point. a MGO3 beta in the spring would ease the (phantom) pain a bit
Doesn't look like Jim Piddock isn't coming back to voice Zero
Damn that's sad to hear. At least we have confirmation that Zero is in the game. I hope Konami isn't taking their past voice talent for granted though.
2 new pics of Quiet's play arts figure.
I'm not liking the look of any of these Play Arts Figures.

So the payment was not enough? or wtf is this guys problem.

i think it was pretty obvious that zero would make an appearance and i'm glad it's not piddock, he was completely uninspired in mgs3. like he just walked in and read off the paper before his morning cup of coffee
Well i don't mind him gone but what the heck is going on. First Hayter and now this guy. Does Konami really pay that poorly for their voice actors?
GreyOcelot
Member
i doubt it. considering hayter himself said he probably didn't get the job because he was pushing the limits of what voice actors get paid. i wouldn't be surprised if sutherland is getting what hayter would have gotten
Maybe it was insultingly low. I can't imagine he asked for much...unless he tried to take advantage of his position and has now found out he is expendable.
I liked him. Is the opinion of most people here though?

i honestly don't know. i'm very picky about voice acting though. piddock's zero was a huge step back from eiding's cambell (even AI campbell, which was perfect) as the main point of contact during the game
Also this comment from Dogg is complete bullshit.
Zero will be one of the main villains if not THE one.
Just because we haven't seen him yet doesn't mean he won't have much dialogue in the game lol.
I expected better from a guy who get's paid to play the MGS series almost every day lol. Don't get me wrong i like Dogg but that's a stupid thing to say.

It didn't feel like Zero was the main point of contact during 3 at least compared to how often you talked to Campbell in the other games.
Eiding should have won an oscar for his performance as AI Campbell. It's not until your second or third playthrough that you realize the subtleties in his voice.
Also this comment from Dogg is complete bullshit.

Given Kojima's comments from earlier this year, it didn't seem like Zero would have a major role in the game. He could still be the "main" villain in the game but still be shown very little.

well...within the context of an MGS game, he may not have much dialogue relative to someone like kaz or ocelot. it's certainly conceivable that zero could be in the game as the main villain and only have a small amount of speaking scenes in the game. perhaps the offer for poddick was much smaller than mgs3 because he had significantly less lines? that would make perfect sense
well the radio, or at least the required radio calls were toned down significantly in MGS3 (probably in response to the complaints about how many ridiculously long required codecs there are in MGS2), but zero definitely has most of the required and plot-based radio time. either way, he shows no emotion, no subtlety in his lines at all, just completely flat reading of lines that any ol' bloke could do. i'm sure they could get a lesser known actor in there who could do better

He's from my hometown.
That was a disrespectful response by Jim. His role in 3 was minor compared to David Hayter and Jim only appeared in 1 big game. Why the hell would they offer him something big if his role would still be minor?

The guy has to put bread on his table. Without knowing the figures involved - or indeed the amount of work - we can't be sure whether he was being disrespectful or simply practical.
Was going to say the same thing. Can't make any assumptions on deals we weren't part of.

If both Zero and Snake, probably 2 of the most important characters in the series, got treated like shit, Konami has just lost the little respect I had left for them.
Well Hayter wasn't acting great either so he's not alone.

I dont know the full context of that tweet but Zero had really set a precedent of being behind the shadows with little presence in every game other than 3. I hope Zero appears more but I fear he will not

I imagine Zero will only appear near the end, him and Big Boss teaming up to take down Skullface and then Zero asking him to take the reign of FOXHOUND, thinking they're on the same side again.
Kojima has said that TPP will depict the relationship between Zero and Big Boss as well as Zero and Skull Face. I think it's safe to say he won't simply have a small role or only be in it at the end.

At that point I would question why he was even given that role in the story in the first place! If there was no need for a tangible character they could've just substituted Zero with the Patriots as the mysterious organization they were in MGS2. I think it's important that MGSV show more of Zero, especially as I feel there is still quite a disconnect between his MGS3 self and the huge history of the character Eva lays out in Act 3. This chapter has the opportunity to better lay out his motivations and personality.

i agree. this harkens back to that big argument about kojima shoehorning the mgs3 support group into being the founders of the patriots. it would do the series well to bridge that gap or at least flesh out zero as a villain. right now zero is just the boring british guy who likes james bond, and for some strange reason is the new underground silent villain of the series. i feel like if kojima could take one thing back about the series, it'd be that. this game would allow him to at least make up for it by providing some much needed character development.
having said that, character development does not mean the dude has to give a 20 minute expository monologue, which is probably what will happen
Wow, that was short but sweet. Great editing and the music, i love this song.

I wouldn't expect much. Big reveal coming this Friday and possibly something on Saturday.
Kojima and Shinkawa being there is enough for me to watch this.
This is the only thing I'm afraid of regarding Zero. I kind of hope hes portrayed as a paranoid recluse.

Finally redeemed my code from GZ, wonder if that code is platform specific or not. Not sure what if I'm going to get it for PS4 or X1 now.
Whaaaaat I didn't know there was a Johnny easter egg in the game.

I like how every time Hayter tweets something that screams sarcasm, people are like "Wow. Glad he's gone." Zero's VA was literally bitching about his paycheck on Twitter, I refer to him as unprofessional, and people get defensive. I swear to God, I'm so done once MGSV is out. XD
I've heard it both ways but yeah it's really funny that when both Hayter and Piddock are no longer in the game, a whole bunch of people come out saying they were horrible voice actors and they're glad that they'r gone lol. I don't have a problem with having that opinion (I'm not particular fond of either one's work) but it's just funny people bring that up now.
