Hmm. You think so? That would've been around the very beginning of development. 6 months before he even started talking about "Project Ogre."
I would guess he probably pitched something other than MGSV that got rejected. ZOE3 or something, but maybe you're right.

It's from 2011 though... It could just be about Rising's development hell
I can't believe Konami.. they forced Kojima to this, and judging by these tweets, they just forced it at last minute before even asking Kojima
yeah, I guess it could be Rising as well
Can you pull the trigger? I didn't try as of course I wanted to saver her.
Although It's pretty obvious it was her that tried to kill you back in the hospital, i kinda fell like shooting her. But you know... boobs and all.
I meet them in an area that's swamp like, I think it's the last stop before they make it to their final destination. Lots and lots of
zombified
the skulls are controlling.
Nightmare fuel when I'm equipped with a single shot tranq pistol and
Quiet.

The reviews were always going to be compromised. That's the state of the industry right now. This game is still a 9/10 for me but it has many glaring flaws and feels incomplete in terms of story and fresh content.

I am enjoying the ever loving fuck out of this game. There are some minor gripes that I'm sure will just continue to get worse later (mindless resource collecting, boring open world, inability to pet my dog) but actually doing missions and just fucking with people is super fun. The gameplay is SUPER fun. Because there are so many violent options, I really want to go a kill em all no stealth playthrough but even though the punishments are pretty minor it still kills my enjoyment to see "Discovered -10 Heroism" in the corner every time. It's kinda the reason I dislike so many choice based games. If you tell players they can handle everything however they want to and then penalize them for handling it a certain way it kinda fucks up your day.
That being said-
This is a really shitty Metal Gear game. =/

Quiet is so brokenly OP.
She can easily take a whole base down solo.
What? Just hit triangle on him.

If he's a puppy, you can't.
Both DD and Quiet are pretty OP. It's great.
On the contrary, it's a great Metal Gear game. Now Metal Gear Solid... This is much more reminiscent to the first 2 Metal Gear games for me and maybe that's what Kojima was going for with how it's more gameplay focused than cutscene. Or he just wanted to prove they could do a gameplay heavy Metal Gear Solid game that didn't lean too heavily on cinematics like the previous games, though they were a staple of the series.

I think that DD is OP. Just walk within 100m of a base and the whole place lights up with enemies.

Not only that, but unlike Quiet he can silently take out enemies without alerting anyone despite other guards seeing it.
Quiet sets off alerts even when using silenced sniper.
That is not true.

Yeah I got flashbacks to The Last of Us when DD was just walking about unnoticed while I was hiding. Sure, every now and then they say 'Shoo!' or something, but a dog in tactical gear? Ha.
that seems alright tho, the horse is clearly meant as an early thing and be done with it once you get something else

Spoil it for me:
Can I eventually get a Metal Gear to ride around in?

Yeah, I was kind of
pissed when I opened up the map that came with the game and seen Angola. Would have been such a nice surprise.

I have finished the first five missions now and a few side-ops. The stealth gameplay is excellent. Scooping out an enemy base and the objectives before deciding your method of approach is really great and patience is rewarded.
Despite that, I am not (yet) digging the open world and the mission structure. Instead of feeling like you are in a real, organic open world, everything feels so disjointed. You're moving from objective to objective with nothing interesting in between, I have had very little incentive for exploration so far.
The story is also not really holding up for me. FYI, this is my first real Metal Gear game (not counting Ground Zeroes and Revengeance) and while I know all the characters and events from reading up and watching videos, I had expected something much different. So far all the story and background seems to be fed through cassette recordings and the missions itself have very little narrative woven around them.
All in all it's a mixed bag but the gameplay is good enough to keep me going.

Yes it is. The entire base does not go on alert like they do with Quiet. Just the immediate guard next to him which DD will likely end up killing as well.
A huge difference.

I kinda feel this way with the Kb/m. It's very easy to just run around and headshot tranq everyone Hell, not even headshot. Just run around and hit them in the chest in quick succession so they all fall at the same time.. Feels bad ass though. Just got to africa and did the first mission. Hopefully, more it get's more challenging. I assume it does.

Having a blast with this game! My missions usually start off good but end up in all out gun battles by the end.
Must learn patience!

lol at this.
I still haven't found her. I've heard mention of her, but haven't ran into her. I ran into Diamond Dog two days ago on pure chance when I wasn't even looking for him.
I want my Sniper support.
Chapter 1 conclusion spoiler.
So this is an unfinished game in its truest sense?
Still he could have included them all in the first chapter itself rather than padding it out on the next.

I was thinking of switching to m/kb but the whole stances thing and all makes me think that while i'll get better accuracy at shooting i'd probably be way worse at movement
dunno about that tradeoff
also yeah, can end up pretty OP. game hasnt thrown anything at me that wasnt manageable with the controller just fine. Missed a few headshots tho, sure
Who said anything about the entire base? if the guard near DD sees him he will react.
That's why i said your quote is not true.
man I tried one of them on mother base and they suuuuuuuuuuuuck

Just realized that total play time keeps accumulating even if you pause, so it's not properly representing completion % after X amount of playtime.
I feel like MGSV is a harsh wakeup call for a lot of people, especially those who ignored or dismissed Peace Walker for so long.
I thought PW was weird when I first played it but then the Monster Hunter-ish vibes and the base building aspect of it all started to click and I got use to it, so MGSV being a progression of that feels pretty natural to me.
Casettes are just codec conversations you can listen to at any time, with extra stuff thrown in.
The Motherbase stuff isn't very Metal Gear, but then again we always knew at some point Big Boss's story had to be about building Outer Heaven and less about "ONE MAN SNEAK MISSION, EQUIPMENT OSP"
I get the complaints, and I did love the insane plotdump cutscenes of prior games, I guess I just don't miss them, especially when the game plays so well.

We got 4 games of the previous style, I'm open to the changes.

Okay, but I said alert in the context of the alert status mechanism in the game. Not alert in the grander scheme of anyone noticing it.
The Elite
BOSS
I wasn't a fan of Peace Walker at all but for some reason MGSV clicked for me right away. I hated the base building stuff in Peace Walker but like it in MGS V. I don't quite understand it myself.
Technically, that complaint can be lobbied at GTA and other open-world titles as well.

What mission does
come on board as a buddy?
Quiet
Already had the cutscene where she shoots at the heli blades but doesn't join.
Do you have the Riot SMG? It makes them trivial. As for the R&D one, you have to really search for them, which sucked.
I got the hint when Peace Walker was revealed to be previously called Metal Gear Solid V
I mean every Big Boss game except 3 is this type of game
that said im enjoying this a lot more than Peace Walker. PW was crazy ambitious for a handheld, always felt like a concept much better suited for better tech
I guess thats the one I did. wasnt expecting to have to search for them, real bad
