Well, I have a few;

Why is Mantis called the Third Child?
Why does Skull Face wear a mask? He didn't have it in GZ.

1. Well since that's the meaning of his name it could a red herring if Solidus is involved
2. Because he's a Nightwing fan. I think it's also not a big deal. It's a domino mask.

Maybe is part of Les Enfant Terrible project too, even if he's not a BB's clone. Maybe Kojima will retcon how LET works in this chapter, like a cloning program, but with different sources.

Regarding Skullface's mask, I think there are two version: the real one, and an imagined one (by Venom), maybe the mask has the purpose of distinguish one version from another.
 
Uh thanks for my recognition when I made the original list earlier on in the thread.
Based on Puma's info and the video of the mag obviously.

I didn't use your list for my post, so I didn't credit you. All the people's information I used has been credited.

I think I've shown that I'm than happy to credit other people's efforts and it's certainly not because of anything personal against you. Your list was just one of the one's I didn't use :-)

I still that the cloning of The Boss may be true and Joy Divison would be the original project of the Patriots to clone The Boss and the Cobras as powered super soldiers but that there's an irony in that one thing that made them so formidable, their emotions, made the clones unstable and most of the, died but Kid Mantis (who could be a clone of The Sorrow or at least something something) escaped or was rescued by Liquids child soldier army, heck. Maybe it was all done at the same facility and they've been bros ever since.

Ah ok then :) I wasn't being a dick or anything. Anyway, apparently the guide makers have stated on Amazon that the guide doesn't contain major spoilers and they have been very careful at hiding them.

I wonder what else we have in store?
 
What I find funny is Liquid having an ARMY behind him while he is like 12.
I understand the Lord of the Fly reference, but having an army is a bit too much.
If that is true, of course.
 
So thus far we only know that Ishmael's identity is important. Doesn't mean the V isn't Big Boss, though. It seems odd that we'd spend the entire finale of the MG series playing a newly introduced character who has little to do with the overarching story.
 
The first of September will solve the biggest ruse Kojima ever created. Everything was fake, everything. The trailers edited with wrong characters, lines and events. Fake guides leaked by Kojima himself. Hayter - still in the game. Konami - bought by Kojima in secret. Greek Crisis - fake. Michael Jackson - still alive. Donald Trump - actually a lizard man.

Kojima - Game of All Time.

throw Robin Williams in the list too.
 
Two things that will annoy me.
1. We play as Solidus.
2. kojima has said that solid snake is a clone, thus deprived of many emotions, and is cold. If we play as a clone, his statement is complete bullshit.

Well be assured that non of the things you list line up with anything that is out there now.

If that is true, of course.

He's a son of Big Boss. He received the leadership traits that allow him lead armies. Basically, he received the idealistic genes meanwhile David is all about that action. LOL at Liquid leading armies while David receives military training and goes to theme parks. <--- The source for this comes from the wiki.

Eh it would be odd but they'd still be vitally important if BB manipulates them etc.

Also I'm not sure about Liquid having an army behind him, could be a commander of a unit in that child soldier force we saw way back when.
 
Raiden as a commander of a small boy unit I believe. So it's not hard to imagine Liquid leading a similar unit

In a real life basis I seem to remember reading about units of child soldiers when alone was all the rage a few years ago. It happens, I mean it's weird but still.
 
This info below is interesting to me, I left the note about the guide not making it clear about which Big Boss they are talking about because that note is just a note from someone who put the list together.
Big Boss is Big Boss and Venom Snake is Venom Snake. The guide makes this clear when they talk about Venom not being Big Boss.


The guide states that at the end of The Phantom Pain, the parasite that mutates peoples' vocal chords infects Mother Base. This forces Big Boss to exterminate his soldiers to prevent a global catastrophe.
The guide continues by saying that although he takes on this responsibility without any apparent remorse, it's impossible from him to ignore the fact that he has contributed to these events. This causes him to unleash his "inner demon".
Big Boss becomes the antagonist gradually, slowly consumed by what happens to him until all that is left is his obsession.
After these events, Big Boss is more determined than ever to reinforce his troops, with the aim of forming a nation free from the governments' hegemony, a dream he will be on the verge of realising in the 1990's.


I'm assuming when the infection takes over MB Big Boss steps in and kills everyone, including Venom Snake. The reason I'm assuming this is the fact the guide States that Big Boss is consumed with guilt and basically becomes insane and eventually becomes the antagonist (which is the real Big Boss, not VS). It goes on to say that because of this Big Boss gradually becomes consumed by what has happened and becomes obsessed with finding and Killing Skullface. After these events Big Boss is determined to create Outer Heaven and eventually succeeded in the 1990's.
 
Vocal cord parasites that could wipe out the english language certainly is a new one..

Not that we have much of a clue how this parasite is supposed to work. That part about english language seems more of a conjecture of yours. The Guide is stated to be less descriptive about the story events anyway.

Like what do they do with the AI Pod? Why do they torture Huey, and how does he cope with that? Seriously we aren't simply missing flavor text here, huge chunks of explanations aren't covered with the guide. You guys are still trying to analyze shit that has too little details to make sense of it. ALSO no one has yet to come out who has actually played the game and explain what happens. You guys here can't give me much of an explanation here can you now?
 
Wait so is Skullface a hallucination? Why else does he appear than disappear in that trailer

I think the guide is confusing peoe more than anything

Why am I her
I cant stop reading
:(
 
The problem is that he never mentions the Medic, who is a suspicious character and who clearly jumps in front of Big Boss during the explosion. There's also a lot of "such and such never happened" which is a bit too ridiculous even for an MGS game. He does mention that Quiet is at the hospital at the beginning, is that something that has been known a long time?
The main point is that just GZ is "wrong" memory of the clone. Which is the part WE played already and does seem like a possible Kojima ruse like MGS2 tanker part. The medic might be a false lead all together.

But a lot of people claim that he is not legit. I just find his "theory" to be more plausible then what other people came up with. :D

If it's true, then that sounds very Chris Nolan style. Can't give bigger praise than that :D
I would actually like if it has some truth... ^^

hes wrong about the reason venom goes ape shit in mother base and he says the nurse is set on fire during the hospital scene, but it's not. It's a female soldier dressed in black,
I woudn't hold every small detail against him as he claims to wrote it down from memory but yeah being wrong on Venom destroying MB is a big one. The guide states it was Kaz, right?
 
thats what im thinking too, just some early stage nanomachines

I can't remember if it was real or fake but wasn't one of the mission names metal something or other with the other world meaning microcosms or something ergo photo nano machines.
Yeah Metallic Archaea. Somebody done research when the achievements leaked and found that it means prototype nanomachines, coincidentally that's the name of the mission where you kill all the MB staff when they are infected by the "Parasite" It was in the video of the mag what was translated by Eden.

Also I found it weird that Skullfaces XOF Unit was a shadow unit of FOX and his unit was actually made to protect and watch over Big Boss.

Yeah. That's the one. Metal Archaea would roughly mean metal micro-organisms. So it still kinda fits in with MGS world. I mean for a proto-nanomachine (compared to MGS1) they're incredibly clumsy (if it is nanomachines) and quite brute force if the DD troops are infected with them.

The guide States it's Kaz who destroys MB? I thought Eden translated and it was Big Boss? I don't think it's Venom who destroys MB it's the real Big Boss as that's how he turns evil and creates Outer Heaven.
 
Hold on. Where does it say anywhere that the Ground Zeroes we played was through the eyes of Venom Snake or some kind of altered memory?
 
Not Your Kind Of People
We are not your kind of people.
You seem kind of phoney.
Everything's a lie.
We are not your kind of people.
Something in your makeup.
Don't see eye to eye.


We are not your kind of people.
Don't want to be like you.
Ever in our lives.
We are not your kind of people.
Right when you start talking.
There's nothing but white noise


Ahhh.... Ahhh.... Ahhh.... Ahhh....

Running around trying to fit in,
Wanting to be loved.
It doesn't take much.
For someone to shut you down.
When you build a shell,
Build an army in your mind.

You can't sit still.
And you don't like hanging round the crowd.
They don't understand

You dropped by as I was sleeping.
You came to see the whole commotion.
And when I woke I started laughing.
The jokes on me for not believing.


We are not your kind of people.
Speak a different language.
We see through your lies.
We are not your kind of people.
Won't be cast as demons,
Creatures you despise.


We are extraordinary people.
We are extraordinary people.
We are extraordinary people.
We are extraordinary people.
That song from the first trailerliterally told us everything we needed to know about MGSV, I mean really.

That's just some badge with Big Boss, not exactly a huge spoiler. "The Man Who Sold the World" is a song that has been featured through the game. Plus he didn't have a horn in Ground Zeroes. Seriously we have no idea what that picture even refers to or what it's from in context of the game.
I see, that makes sense, yeah it's probably for the best if we just completely ignore the fact that exact scene had him with the horn in the trailers.
I mean naturally it had to be some kind of placeholder.
 
Talking about songs, isnt the bowie song shown in the e3 trailer, The Man Who Sold The World have like a duality thing going on through the singing?

Yeah.
We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home
I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed

I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here
We must have died alone, a long long time ago

Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World
 
Man reading the lyrics of this and not your mind of people leaves the impression that the story is just modeled after these two songs. Kojima is great at picking music

Even changing out Snake's voice for Keifer oddly fits the lyrics because it was a bit like "white noise" for a lot of people at first.
 
The guide States it's Kaz who destroys MB? I thought Eden translated and it was Big Boss? I don't think it's Venom who destroys MB it's the real Big Boss as that's how he turns evil and creates Outer Heaven.
Sorry, my mistake! I didn't remember and this guys said...

hes wrong about the reason venom goes ape shit in mother base and he says the nurse is set on fire during the hospital scene, but it's not. It's a female soldier dressed in black,

So i assumed it was not Big Boss / Venom. Should have actually looked it up as the situation is already confusing enough! ;)
Well, then there is no real reason so far that the clone theory of BigMGSfan is not plausible, right?
 
I decided to look in this thread and I'm even more confused about what's going on. Even if what's listed in this thread happens, it's so fucking out there and abstract you'll have to play the game just to understand the context of events and see how the characters can even process them. And I was honestly expecting that which is why spoilers don't bother me.

A part of me wishes Kojima did just mail a mock strategy guide to 10 people just to see what would happen though. Like some deranged version of Willy Wonka.
 
Not Your Kind Of People

That song from the first trailerliterally told us everything we needed to know about MGSV, I mean really.

While we're quoting song lyrics, Big Boss' group is called Diamond Dogs, so I figure looking at Bowie's song there too may help :p

This ain't rock'n'roll. This is genocide!

As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent
You asked for the latest party
With your silicone hump and your ten inch stump
Dressed like a priest you was
Todd Browning's freak you was

Crawling down the alley on your hands and knee
I'm sure you're not protected, for it's plain to see
The diamond dogs are poachers and they hide behind trees
Hunt you to the ground they will, mannequins with kill appeal

(Will they come?)
I'll keep a friend serene
(Will they come?)
Oh baby, come unto me
(Will they come?)
Well, she's come, been and gone.
Come out of the garden, baby
You'll catch your death in the fog
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs

The Halloween Jack is a real cool cat
And he lives on top of Manhattan Chase
The elevator's broke, so he slides down a rope
Onto the street below, oh Tarzie, go man go

Meet his little hussy with his ghost town approach
Her face is sans feature, but she wears a Dali brooch
Sweetly reminiscent, something mother used to bake
Wrecked up and paralyzed, Diamond Dogs are stabilized

(Will they come?)
I'll keep a friend serene
(Will they come?)
Oh baby, come unto me
(Will they come?)
Well, she's come, been and gone.
Come out of the garden, baby
You'll catch your death in the fog
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
Oo-oo-ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs
Oo-oo-ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs

In the year of the scavenger, the season of the bitch
Sashay on the boardwalk, scurry to the ditch
Just another future song, lonely little kitsch
(There's gonna be sorrow) try and wake up tomorrow

(Will they come?)
I'll keep a friend serene
(Will they come?)
Oh baby, come unto me
(Will they come?)
Well, she's come, been and gone.
Come out of the garden, baby
You'll catch your death in the fog
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
Oo-oo-ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs
Oo-oo-ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs

Bow-wow, woof woof, bow-wow, wow
Call them the Diamond Dogs
Dogs
Call them the Diamond Dogs, call them, call them
Call them the Diamond Dogs, call them, call them, ooo
Call them the Diamond Dogs

Keep cool
Diamond Dogs rule, OK
Hey-hey-hey-hey
Beware of the Diamond Dogs
Beware of the Diamond Dogs

More than a few really interesting quotes in there I think ^_^

Honestly this is all that needs to be shown in regards to the Medic/Fake Big Boss stuff.
There's no Shrapnel, because Big Boss was protected by another person in the blast (medic).

Is all this crazy? Yes, but Kojima is kojima and I feel like people are nuts to think someone so notoriously fussy over details and hints is just having stuff like that in the games be nothing.
