Awesome news! Gonna wait till then then.
The previous E3 and Gamescom demo were in an area in a valley from what it looks like, because rock mountains surrounded all sides, but this area was an open desert from what appears to be a far western area in the map. All the driving and running too, lotsa open space.
One would assume that all male generic soldiers have a voice they share, and then all female soldiers have a voice that they also share.
Having Snake's voice would be a strange oversight for Kojima
Yup, I also didn't expect Afghanistan to be that varied in terms of vista's, I honestly just expected the rocky valley terrain we saw to be the only type of landmass we'd encounter.

I had a chuckle watching DD get evac'd. Thanks for that, Kojima =] That might even make a good "abandon thread" gif

Amazing demo!! The firefight at the end is ridiculous! Though not much of anything was seen that wasn't talked about in the previews.
As for those scared missions will become repetuitive, it seems you didn't read the previews. Many outlets said the game is open world but each base feels like it's own MGS game. There will be loads of variety, boss battles and scripted moments. Just look at the trailer. It is a super MGS game.

It will be hilarious when Hayter's voice is in and he just does Kiefer's grunts and one word quips.
Metal Runnings?
You have until the 24th to get one, after that is pretty much no guarantees.
Wow, I didn't notice that.
But Heroism is a stat from PW. You get heroism by getting high scores from finishing missions. No kills = more heroism. No alerts = more heroism. CQC = more heroism etc etc. Killing too many enemies during a mission or getting spotted too many times can result in a heroism penalty.
Heroism helps with volunteer recruitment of mother base. And enemies who you have captured through fulton are easier convinced in joining you if your heroism is high.
Well there's the incentive to not use buddies, you'll build Heroism quicker without them.

Came for the gameplay, stayed for the hits of the '80s.

I think it's only available at GAME in the UK and it's sold out on their website. Perhaps you could try your local store?
Loved the footage. There's some great games coming out from now to the end of the year but this has to be right up there.

In PW random MSF soldiers have different voices from BB, same with female ones (2 or 3), except in main story missions when BB says something. When checking some doors, using a key card and grunting, off the top of my head. I don't think they'll let you choose random soldiers on main missions this time around, so it probably won't be an issue.

The more I see of MGSV, the more excited I become for it.
Even though the story makes absolutely NO sense to me.

Also that offscreen footage is the tutorial I guess. I'll most likely skip that lol
Rule 1: Don't skip anything you see for the very first time.
Yes sir, you can upgrade him.
Around 15 seconds in that video you can see DD attacking someone with a knife.

Since this game is mission based I am going to assume you can replay missions till you get the S rank you want with stealth. So I doubt the free roam stuff will count to any no kill trophy or whatever.

This is Metal Gear, not Gears of War if Konami didn't implement those I would be pissed. Playing Metal gear games without killing enemies or even firing a gun is how this games should be played.

Then why do they give you so many gun customization options? It's like here, look at all this cool stuff, but don't use it
You can use that stuff all you want, you may just incur penalties to your level score. Nothing is stopping you from using that stuff.
Yeah. And if it's anything like Ground Zeroes you can get away with a couple of kills and still get S ranks if you compensate by doing something else better.

The video is taking forever to download 
still 3 hours 30 minutes left. I guess I'll have to watch it when I get back from uni tonight.
Yeah, DD alone makes MGSV the GOTY

That's good to know. I don't want to be limited to one style of play

Good Eye candy, not that I will ever use it. Weapons and equipment OSP always.
MGS games have always given you an option to either play stealthy, go in guns blazing, or a combination of both.

Thinking about it, the demo pretty much puts any angst over missing situational CODEC chats to rest, doesn't it?
The games have always rewarded you for less kills, not really anything new.
I think the amount of heroism you receive is linked to your rating in TPP. In GZ you could easily get A ranks while still having alot of kills.

This looks so so good. The only thing I question is being able to "scan" someone and instantly see all their stats and even skills. It feels outside of typical MGS abilities, but also takes away opportunities for narrative and character development (e.g. talk to the woman you save and find out she's a botanist, not just scan-and-chute everyone you meet).
Scanning abilities was in PW, it saves the issue of recruiting people you don't want.
