No, I see what he's getting at:

It looks just like in MGS3, if you go into first-person-view after Snake lost his eye.
Good catch, it is debatable but it's too specifically similar to how MGS3 handled first person with the eyepatch.

Just seems like vignetting to me. The camera moves more like a camera man than an actual person in the scene.

I just watched the trailer again and that's the only moment you see that black spot. If it was vignette, I would imagine the trailer would include more of it and not just on one corner.

This is coming from a non MGS conspiracist, btw.
 
I don't think that the PAZ explosion causes the shrapnel horn. I think the helicopter crash does.

I don't see how else he could get something stuck in his face.

It would be ridiculous either way. I always thought the shrapnel was a piece of the womb bomb.

But then again, the loss of an arm was likely caused by the Heli.
 
There is a scene in the Garbage trailer that we never see in GZ.

Big Boss is in the heli and his face is all bloody and he's overlooking the water or some sort of destruction.
 
Kojima's supposedly explained this as the shrapnel 'damaging' the part of Big Boss's brain that knew Russian, but people have been skeptical.

then he needs to research more lol shrapnel damage is on the right hemisphere.

The left hemisphere of the brain contains parts of the parietal lobe, temporal lobe and the occipital lobe, which make up your language control center. In these lobes, two regions known as the Wernicke area and the Broca area allow you to understand and recognize, read and speak language patterns -- including the ability to learn foreign languages.
 
Is it ever mentioned how long it takes Big Boss to recover and go save Kaz?

He looks emaciated as fuck in the hospital, then pretty jacked when Ocelot says that the legend needs to come back to life.

Agreed.

The plot thickens.

This guy looks like the Medic. But the strange thing is the other guy, in the same slumped over position has an IDroid right by him!

So what do you think a camera zoom means that, for a moment, has the MGS3 1 eye effect?

The way the camera moves makes me think this means nothing.
 
This was never in the game:

Now whether this is just unused footage, or part of the big "This is how it really happened!" reveal, I do not know.
MGS has never really been into the unused footage thing unless it's done to hide something, so either that is actually in the game as part of the "real" story thing, or that exact scene plays out with another in Big Boss's place.
 
Fuckin A. I'm not watching all that.
Cliff notes?
1. Snake's shadow in ground zeroes in undefined from the neck up. He's the only character in te game with an undefined shadow.
2. The one-eyed thing we just discussed from the trailer.
3. Kiefer's voicing Ishmael, Snake, and the Medic.
4. In the chopper, where there are photos; one photo deliberately hides a man snake is embracing along with the helicopter pilot and Kaz.
5. A lot of stuff are Gray Fox theories.
6. There's one whole video that concentrated on the head surgeon doctor,
7. There are interesting videos between yongyea on Python, disproving each other.

Maybe it's the flashback scene that supposedly shows two different snakes.

i have a theory, what if the helicopter missed the other one, and this is BB flying past motherbase (with paz/medic blood on his face) one last time before heading to the hospital with the medic who got blown up.
 
I think it's the REAL ground zeroes mission we play in TPP. Possibly, the one mission not detailed in the guide.

Has it been confirmed that we actually replay ground zeroes?

I think that would be really stupid unless it was really different. All the fans have burnt themselves out on that map.
 
Has everyone noticed that in ground zeroes there is a masked soldier that also makes his way onto the chopper who is interacting with Chico while Kaz has a meltdown. So that makes 6 people on the chopper. Big Boss, Medic, Chico, Paz, Kaz, and unknown soldier.

Then why is snake dying in the hospital if he's chill right after the explosion?

Judging from the trailers, there's footage of camp omega during the day time.
 
You know how in MGS2 Raiden was supposed to represent the player?

Well if these theories hold true then I think WE the player represent "Venom Snake" We've been loyal to Big Boss since MGS 3. We even sympathize with his character.

So we the player think we are playing as Big Boss only to have those thoughts betrayed only to be used by the very "hero" we've built up in our heads.

i like this. I like it a lot.

That definitely feels like the direction this might be going in.

Make the player the protagonist. I like it.

I just have no idea how it could be pulled off.

The way the camera moves makes me think this means nothing.

Possibly. There's a scene just after in which a nuke? is being moved towards BB and it appears to be from the same scene, so that must be what BB is looking at and why the camera zoomed in on him.

That black spot though... It's weird that it's there and just on that moment during the whole trailer. A trailer that was directed by Kojima so it must be there for a reason.

Its definitely weird.
 
I'm almost 100% positive when we play the game and we see the scenes from the trailers, they're going to be slightly different.

Whether big boss has a horn or not. Place holder characters, etc.
 
I say that because if I'm playing the game as Big Boss. It's easy for me to sympathize with the character. Kojima wants us to HATE Big Boss after this game. It's hard to hate a man if you're in direct control of everything especially when they give you reasons to be sympathetic towards his character.

Now imagine Big Boss using his most trust man. Whether that's The Player, The Medic or whoever. Implants false memories. (Kojima sold us GZ giving us what we believe to be accurate events.), and uses this person to build a military base and army to lure his two enemies out. Cipher and Skullface.

Only for it to be revealed that we aren't Big Boss and he in turn kills us and uses what we did to establish Outer Heaven.

We would view him as nothing more than a monster. Just like Kaz did in MG2

That's a good point and it's exactly why I believe we don't play as the real big boss.

I feel like the only way they could make you hate the character your playing as is if he does evil shit that is out of your control.

And with the apparently seldom amount of cutscenes, it won't really mesh with you doing missions as a good guy saving people and whatnot.
 
Wasn't sure where to ask this but is it confirmed what unlocks there are from playing MGS:GZ?
All Prisoners
All Unique "named" guards (The Finger, The Eye etc. anyone that isn't a default guard)
Kojima (probably)
FOX Sneaking suit
All collected Casettes (No reason to assume otherwise)
An extra mission in TPP where you visit camp Omega
Something else that is apparently a big deal and not been done before in games according to Kojima.

That's what's been confirmed or implied so far, but nothing has been said if things like regular guards you extract carry over, but yeah.
 
Don't forget that in kojima's last trailer, there's a shot of someone looking at kaz, snake, and ocelot. Someone with one eye.
Edit: 2:18 seconds into the elegia trailer

I think there's a lot of weight in this theory.

If you examine the shot closely, Ocelot has a very serious, almost apologetic expression on his face. Kaz is turning away from the camera back towards Venom - he has just looked at whoever is approaching. Finally, Venom turns around with this expression of innocence and utter confusion (watch it in motion to see what I mean).

Goddammit, this is heartbreaking. Big Boss, you absolute monster.

Edit: I see you've already discussed this a bit. Sorry, I jumped the gun and posted without reading the rest of the thread first.
