Kojima is teasing new trailer and off-screen pics for MGSV: The Phantom Pain

I met Troy Baker back when I was in Vegas and he told me that we've seen nothing yet. He literally said that the scope for this game is "HUGE HUGE HUGE".

Goddamn, Baker has quite the fashion sense. But of course does nothing beat a MGS shirt.
 
I've never gotten into MGS games (yet, anyway) but just the name "The Phantom Pain" has me intrigued.

I'll be giving the series yet another try soon as I just bought Ground Zeros. Maybe it'll stick this time.

You're baffled that I think an out of place chicken hat looks stupid? Now I guess I am the one who is baffled.

This reminded me of that Simpsond episode where they made the kids wear drab uniforms at school and it sucked the life out of them.

"You are it"
"Now you are the one who is it"
"Understood"

I notice whatever game Troy is currently voice acting, he takes on the character's appearance in real like. Notice the hair and scarf...just like Ocelot.

it's supposed to look stupid. i'm baffled that you think a chicken hat is out of place in a metal gear game when they've done tons of silly things in there (croc hat, porn mags, cardboard boxes that fool enemies, fart and poop jokes, shall i continue?)

if you think the chicken hat is stupid, don't wear the chicken hat. i'm not entirely sure how that takes enjoyment away from the game in any way

Jeez it's just an amusing gimmick to make fun of the people who suck at this game. Nobody forces you to wear it.

Kojima said he implemented those things like the cardboard box or chicken hat to lighten up the mood because MGSV will have the darkest story yet.

Again, it's all optional, you don't have to use it!

Croc hat, porn mags and cardboard boxes all have gameplay elements to them, this is just a "wear this if you suck" (well why don't you add an easy mode instead then?). Mostly this just seems like something they added so they could sell it as merchandise.

Fake edit: I'm discussing not only with two people with snake avatars but also MGS in their names, time for me to leave.

making your character harder to see isn't a gameplay element now? (ie. the EZGun in MGS3). try again
 
Sweet. Would love a new trailer.

I played and finished Ground Zeroes for the first time last night so my already substantial hype is going off the rails. Can't believe how good it plays mechanically!

Read the OP of this thread to understand there is a gameplay element to it.

Fake edit: and our avatars or names have nothing to do with this. We're just trying to explain to you that it isn't just a stupid looking hat with no features. It's actually very useful for beginners.

A.K.A. I know my argument is a load of bollocks, so I'll just attack the people instead of their arguments.

You are completely right, actually. This is indeed a "wear it if you suck" item.

It is still funny, though. I will be using it during my second or third playthrough, just to see it in cutscenes. :p

Did you have a problem with Kerotans, by any chance? Or the Ape Escape minigame? Or any of the other fourth-wall breaking pieces of comedy that is part-and-parcel with Kojima's style? It's like people forget that Metal Gear has always been anime as fuck. You can even completely ignore the chicken hat if you don't want to use it.
 
I mean yeah, it looks like a new trailer is coming but he won't drop a release date. He will do another mindfuck thing like 'Coming 1986' or some weird shit and leaving me alone in this room here with no new knowledge about this game's release.

Can't take Psycho-Hideo anymore man, need some facts asap

Facts are overrated.

The ape escape was not part of the main game, and the fourth-wall stuff often fitted with the narrative like in MGS2, I guess I didn't know putting a chicken hat on your main character was an anime trope sorry about that I guess.

I really wish shit like this was bannable. Implying that you won't get a clear-cut answer from someone who uses the forum's avatar feature - within the confines of the Terms of Service - how they see fit.
Imagine my surprise.

(a) the croc hat was in the main game, and the chicken hat isn't part of the main game if you don't wear the chicken hat. (b) check my post history, i've been highly critical of many elements of past mgs games. (c) relax, this is you right now:

Sure it's a gameplay element, but why couldn't they make an easy mode instead?

It's Kojima's funny way to say "Hey you suck, try to play better or wear this." I think it's an awesome idea.

The stealth genre is all about not getting spotted but then again, you can still play the way you want.

If you get spotted like 3 times a message pops up and asks if you want to wear the chicken hat, if you choose "yes" then the enemy has a harder time seeing you, if you choose "no" then you can still rambo around or whatever you want, it's totally up to you how you want to play this game. The chicken hat doesn't change shit, only if you want to make the game easier.

Initially it was all fun and games with Kojima but now I just want a release date. I admit I'm getting a lil bit frustrated cause I have the feeling this will release around Sept. If it's going to release after e3 put me out of my pain.

:) fine I believe you, guess I've been arguing with too many who think Kojima is a god and can do no wrong for my own good. I love the MGS games but just sees this as an obvious introduction to a piece of merchandise.
 
Btw. all off-screen shots in the OP are from the PS4 version.

I'm in the same boat.

I really hope it's a Spring release date.

I would be really upset if it becomes a Fall release.

Is there any doubt that the game won't be out in 2015. I mean this is not FF XV :P

I am sure we will get a release date in due time. They just need to fit it in a time slot that coincides with their financial results. MGS V is obviously one of the biggest and most important project for Konami.
