Metal Gear Solid V: Gamescom Gameplay Demo

I noticed it was fake as soon as he pressed start. The text and everything reminded me of MGS4.
 
Guys that doesn't look fake at all. those scenes are placed in those areas as well, I don't think anyone would fake rain being on the screen as well.......Guess I'm going on a media black out soon!

No, its 100% fake. Ocelot's ammo strap is slung over his right shoulder every time we see him. In the gif it is clearly slung over his left shoulder, which can only happen when an image is flipped.

Just like Big Boss & Solidus' Eyepatch.

Ocelot clones confirmed.
 
So, question, how does GAF deals with spoilers once the embargo / game is out?

Do we have a normal thread and a spoiler free one? or?

There will most likely be a spoiler thread for the game.

there will be normal thread without spoilers (OT) and a separate spoiler thread.
 
If MGS4 and Peace Walker are anything to go by this game won't have any one image or clip that'll spoil it. Ruined surprises, sure, but you'll have to actually play through the game to ruin the story.

"Boss, your arm has mind control technology"

I can see it now.

well mgs4 there was a leaked picture of big boss on a tv screen, now imagine something as epic as a grown up solid snake vs big boss ala metal gear, or big boss shaping outer heaven etc
 
So which if these MGS tropes do you think won't happen?

Hand to Hand final boss fight
Otacon/Otacon's father has a person he has a crush on/cares about die and he cries a lot
Snake/Main Character is tortured.
Secret spy conversation after credits.
Bosses that are motifs of previous Metal Gear series bosses.

If I had to choose I'd say the bosses.

The last one if I have to choose.

Funny, I was earlier thinking earlier that we should make a bingo card.

Might be a fun metagame to keep Mgs/OuterGAF social when the game comes out.

1. Big boss will kick the shit out of the AI pod
2. Strangelove gets slaughtered infront of Huey
3. Big Boss may be tortured, but we already have seen Quite being tortured
4. Big boss establishiung outer heaven and or ends with the phrase "commence operation intrude N313
5. Spin off of bosses, wouldnt be surprised if see a lot of foxhound members as kids seeing how we have seen psycho mantis, liquid, wouldnt be surprised if Raven shows up as well.

Metal gear gonna Metal gear

People ask me which ones will happen, I say

The final boss will presumably be with Skullface and his badass shotgun, so I doubt the hand-to-hand fight will happen.
Huey is most certainly going to whine about Strangelove.
Snake seems to be tortured by his own demons the whole game.
Secret spy conversation will happen no doubt.
Well, if the Man on Fire and Mantis are bosses, along with Eli in the Metal Gear... Wonder if Fatman can have an unearthly apparition.


Actually, there's a question: how do you guys think the duel with ol' Skully will play out?

and for Huey to pee his pants

No idea why but it just dawned on me that the man on fire could end up being a boss battle imokwiththis. Big Boss's demons coming back to haunt him seems cooler to me than whatever foxhound/dead cell/cobra unit analogue they could come up with.

well so far we do see snake shooting him with a shotgun while ocelot is in control of the horse, so we kind of have an on rails type of fight with him, but i wouldn't mind a throw back fight to the volgin one, except tactics would be different because instead of electricity, he is well on fire.
 
So it got me thinking.

Kojima said this game would deal with 'taboo' themes. Now, child soldiers is one thing, but a cultural thing unique to Japan is how mental illness is seen as taboo to talk about. And the one thing that's been ingrained into our minds since the first trailer for TPP? Big Boss's 'delusions' of fire guy, fire whale, etc. Lately we've seen Skullface might be another hallucination, and then there's the part where BB is driving away from gigantic spikes thrusting upwards from the ground.

So far, we have no indication what is a delusion and what isn't. It's obvious to say 'oh yeah flaming man and spikes from ground is a hallucination', but until the E3 trailer, it showed us that Skullface might be another hallucination. So if Kojima is going to deal with mental illness..that BB might be suffering...that can be seen as Taboo.

the flaming guy and whale are all due to psycho mantis creating them to defeat his enemies. Skull face is real however what I think may happen is when we kill him eventually he will somehow be part of snakes psyche and big boss will start to go mad, skull face wants zero gone as well so I think with skull face dead big boss will take on the mantle but we will also see his deterioration as well
 
Was that villa / mansion shown prior to the recent Konami trailer?

Was reading a story leak from over a year ago that seems fake but it mentions a mansion.
 
This is how it starts. All the fake fakes being released and then BOOM! Giant picture of Big Boss briefing Snake for Operation Intrude among the flood of fakes.

It wasn't shown until 11 months ago. But I think I know the 'leak' you're talking about and that mansion definitely isn't in Bosnia.
