Well that's what i get for playing while listening to the tapes lol i guess i can't pay attention to both

I doesn't help that Miller keeps blabbing over them. "You gonna extract him too?" - "Yes, shut up! I am listening to a tape!" - "Sniper! Get down!" - "For gods sake Ocelot!" - "Whooooooooo?" - "Aaaassrrrggh"

And this is how Venom became a demon.

Am I right in thinking that you get another "Man Who Sold the World" tape after completing Mission 46?

No. The only tapes I got after completeing Mission 46 is all the tapes in the 'Truth Records' folder.

Man I crack up everytime I see this video, truly one of the unintentionally funniest scenes in the game.

Ehh that's debatable at this point. Kaz deliberately withhold important information from Boss in PW and was shown to be kind of working with the enemy. He's a bit of a manipulative liar. You can't trust him.

Wait, what was this?

 

[Alienous]

There's a Reddit intepretation of the ending that I find entertaining.

"The ending was suppose to evoke the same sense of betrayal in the player than Big Boss felt when betrayed by The Boss. Now you understand how Big Boss felt, and why he became the bad guy"

essentially.

lol

BB didn't even become bad at the end of SE though, he cried at her grave, got a medal and probably got drunk.

It really sucks that we don't get to use the bike. I was really looking forward to it since the trailer they showed that (fake) scene way back at GDC 2013.

At least we got the costume, which I found awesome ^^

Kojima man, spoiled everything I hate it.

Yeah but that single tear gave you an idea easily of why he'd say fuck all y'all.

Replaying the Quiet mission in the hopes that she'll come back to me

Watch the cutscene where she takes down the jet. How fucking cool would it have been to basically insert the MGS2 harrier boss fight there. BB shoots rockets at it while Quiet snipes it out.

edit: WTF Quiet is in my brig?!

 

[Veal]

truth: the man who sold the world is not truth but fiction--the truth that zero wants you to know. do not believe it. it is doublethink.

there is no Ishmael.

I want to believe.

The version of The Man Who Sold The World in this game is a cover (just like Venom/ the whole operation.)

 

[Palpable]

Let's all pretend that the MGS story ended with MGS3 & that the ones beyond that (except GZ) are spin-off's in terms of story. That way MGS goes out with a bang, not a whimper.

 

[Unknown One]

MG1 is Venom Snake.

MG2 and MGS4 is the real Big Boss.



It'd make no sense if Venom survived.

Big Boss was part cyborg in MG2 and got lit up by an unarmed Solid Snake. Venom Snake > Big Boss.

Nothing will ever compare to MGS 1-3. And I could've sworn your past posts were shit talking the games, not praising them.

She's never coming back ;_;

If I capture 8 gerbils at a time once more I'm going on a genocide crusade against all life forms in the game.

Fuck capture cages.

What... They are some of my favourite games of all time. I've been specifically shit posting 4 and PW.

he wasn't actually. the whole cyborg thing from kessler was an in-joke mocking snake's revenge

and just because i'm a huge pedantic asshole, 'part cyborg' is redundant. you're either a cyborg or you aren't.

 

[Palpable]

I see. 4 at least gave me the feels at the end. It has a lot of issues, but it also did some things right. PW was far too ridiculous & anime. GZ was great. Awesome pacing, story, and real Big Boss. MGSV is a mess. If only the body double shit wasn't present & they omitted the stupid explanations of the supernatural/scifi elements, it'd be so much better.

I'll still buy it :'(

I'm not even sure what Bait Bottles do either. I smash loads of them near cages but hasn't made a difference. Getting all the animals will be hard.


Fuck I just realised I'll never be able to get the Butterfly codename, that's going to annoy me till the day I die.

 

[Rooth]

I still have no idea if the game ended yet. Quiet is gone now but I'm at 60% complete. Then I found Paz hanging out on my base. Nobody told the Boss Paz is alive?

Show her all the photos, then you may regret those words and/or deeds about Paz

I'm right there with you there... Now I'll never be able to dispose of nukes without building my own. Mah base is gonna get nuked.

On one hand, I get that the whole removal of an entire buddy, the play-style it offers, and GMP/resources invested makes the story stuff come across as more meaningful, I guess. On the other, you spend like 3+ side-ops recruiting interpreters, and your Mother Base is full of multi-lingual people but you stick the guy who can only speak English in the chopper.

I've never used them, just assumed it was to get animals around you without running if you're for whatever reason garbage at tranqing them? I don't think it has anything to do with cages though, and I don't think there are any animals that require bait bottles.

Also I can't get the code name either ;_;7

Rare animals require cages. I was shocked when I picked up the guide and saw how many fucking animals are actually in the game.

That makes more sense. Would have made the hunting animals side ops easier.

Yeah, I looked at the database and was thinking "I'm sure I'm just missing a few birds now. I'll see where they are and go grab them, then easy tro- THERE'S HOW MANY OF THESE BASTARDS?!"

Anyone have a link to that cut audio from the ending where Big Boss is talking to himself about The Boss? Can we presume the real Big Boss is the one talking?

 

[Voyevoda]

So, am I the only one who absolutely loved it, and thinks it's overall better than 1 and 3 even though 3 has been my all-time favourite game since its release (hence the nickname Voyevoda)?

 

[Rogue Agent]

Pretty sure it's actually Venom talking to Big Boss. That's why he says something like "That's what I... [laughs] what we will leave as our legacy." I'll try to find it.

Edit: Here https://a.pomf.cat/abcyrl.mp4

 

[Voyevoda]

Exactly. It makes cloning him pointless if he can just magically be as good as Big Boss via hypnotherapy.

Yes but cloning him was in '72.

The hypnotherapy was all the way from '75 to '84. And Les Enfants Terribles were dropped in '76. Maybe that is just why the project was abandoned, because he [Cipher] realised there was another way.

Talking about bait bottles for "require", not cages.

oh yeah, what happened to Chico? Was he also just killed in the helicopter crash with no further explanation on his cassette tape thing and fate?

 

[Akiyama_AE]

Kinda wish the game had co-op missions where you have to work with friends to go through some really big bases objectives etc, A big missed chance I mean PW had it but in a smaller capacity with the MGS5 gameplay it would have been amazing ...

 

[Chariot]

Yeah. Only mention we get is that he died in the crash. When realism goes wrong.

 

[Hasney]

No need to waste time talking about a dead and annoying child who's also a traitor to boot. Oh well, I'm sure he's smiling while looking up at us.

But everyone in MGS series is a traitor.

lame, should have atleast been in medbay with Paz in those hallucinations.

So I just completed side ops 145-149. Got the cassette tape that says Eli wants to speak with "father". I went to MB... No cutscene. Where the heck do I go to speak with Eli. What am I missing?
