Are you kidding?

This lends credence to that earlier Reddit post, I mean Kojima wouldn't have let the cat out of the bag that early?

How far are you in the game? I'm assuming the 4th or 5th mission?

I'm actually around 13 missions in. Or 14, forgot. But there's still no confirmation that you're not BB. But that just happened and I was like woah...
 
Huh. That's still pretty early. Kojima being the crazy bastard that he is, there has to be another twist no one has seen..

Next Monday cannot come quick enough.

This explains why Ishmael acts, talks, and thinks like Snake but cannot fight like him (he actually jumps on Quiet? instead of performing CQC?) and explains why Punished "Venom" Snake can still be "the greatest soldier in history" and perform every single ridiculous feat after coming straight out of a coma with no proper training.

My interepration of this is that it's like a wrestling match. All three parties in the scene (Ishmael, Ahab and Quiet) have read the script and know how the scene must end. Ishmael's identity hasn't been revealed to the audience yet, so it's important he doesn't give anything away. Since the outcome is already decided, jumping on Quiet or limply throwing objects at her is fine filler until the time slot has been filled and the match has to end.

You know, sort of like how Kojima has written everything.
 
Let me give you all highlights about the story as I've gone through it so far

-No clue who Ishmael is
-Ishmael said "Who am I? You're talking to yourself."
-Face creation has an effect on your character when it's shown in the mirror but it goes away
-You meet skull face in the mission "where do the bee's sleep"
-You see the ST-84 for the first time along with a skulls boss battle
-Mantis is always with skull face and controls the ST-84
-Quiet is met during free roam
-Quiet's body cant take water on it but can shower
-DD is found free roaming
-Huey defects to diamond dogs
-Huey created ST-84
-The Boss' AI can't recognize Venom
-Child soldiers killed = mission failed

How many cutscenes have you seen so far?
 
Has anyone been able to find or develop the Mosin Nagant yet? Or any kind of tranquilizer sniper rifle that Big Boss can use and not just Quiet?
 
Man I really hate how Boss barely even emotes in this game. It's like silent protagonist status :(

That whole thing with Quiet in the stream just now fell so flat because of it IMO
 
Wait, you can play as a different character sometimes? One streamer could select between Snake and someone called Komodo Dragon who was good at climbing.
 
Does anyone remember in the original E3 trailer that showed off gameplay. There was something about dynamic cqc where big boss grabs a weapon out of an enemies hands and turns it on him.

I don't remember being able to do anything like that in Ground zeroes. I take that mechanic didn't make Phantom Pain as well?

It's in the game. And in GZ iirc.

Some of your units will have higher stats in areas than Snake. So for instance if you need a special plant, instead of Snake you would use someone with a S rank in that area of expertise. Anyone you capture can be used instead of Snake accept for the buddy units.
 
So, guys... Turns out I pre-ordered the CE with Amazon.com earlier this year (I'm in Canada ) and this is what it says...


Aren't they supposed to ship it so it arrives on release day?
 
You should really learn some of the CQC techniques before TPP. The gun grab thing is maybe gimmicky but knowing things like the strike combo knocking people out for 30 minutes vs. 4 minutes for the choke or whatever is useful.
 
When you play the game, Listen to the ocelot briefings (namely ocelot briefing 3)

It gives the background info of the formation of the patriots. Tells you how origins were formed. Also tells you what caused the split of the patriots, The le efants terrible project.
Listen to all the tapes you can. You get the pieces to peace everything together there

proof i have the game
