Skull Face never felt like a real threat in this game. his plan was a threat, but you see the fullness of his plan like right before he died and after he is dead. I was expecting him to return in Chapter 2 and become the real threat he should have been.

He had SOOO many chances to staight up execute Snake. But noooo every single time he had to do a bunch of showing off and snake easily walked away each time.
 
Skull Face made up for everything he didn't do with the best line in gaming, or even any media in recent times

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
 
sup fam

if y'all wanna make some troll shots of the passport you don't need to start a new game... just edit your player character and then redo mission 46

boom

This article sums up really well my thoughts about the game.
It's a great game despite the cut content and generally how the whole chapter 2 was handled.

I play almost 100 hours and i still don't want to finish playing it.
I find it funny thought that some people want to sell their copies, lol.
That's over the top reaction imo
 
Thanatos' post really made me realise what a missed opportunity the child soldier subplot was.

Even something as simple as having the squad of 6-or-so child soldiers you rescue, rescue you at a point in the game. A beaten, bloodied Big Boss propped up by 6 child soldiers would have been a powerful image that would have conveyed a lot about Big Boss going into the future.

Basically I'm saying they should have done what every Batman comic book writer does in justifying Robin.
 
I was on the Wiki because I was looking at stuff to make sense out of it .

That's the list of everything that made zero sense in the game, that ended up retconning virtually every plot point from MGS 3 and 4.


It is revealed that Code Talker researched The End's remains after Operation Snake Eater. This contradicts a scene in Metal Gear Solid 3 which showed The End's corpse blowing up when a microbomb detonated after he died.


This was acknowledged in the tapes, Code Talker and his research, Tape 1. Around 1:40 in.

"his partial remains, a collection of parts you could say say. The man had died in an explosion"
 
Well, the story is definitely user friendly. Very unintrusive

It's missing a whole chapter? Really seems like Kojima wanted to make the game even bigger but Konami took what was finished and somehow scrambled that stuff together.
 
Somebody at GameTrailers said it best about the problem with the tape recordings replacing codecs. Codec conversations had a sense of self-importance in previous MGS games. The games basically said "This is important for you to hear right now and fuck you if you don't want to." So yes, if you didn't like them then you didn't like them. But they demanded your attention and allowed for conversations in the story that were far better at connecting the story together. In MGSV, the tapes just feel so detached. The conversations are often one sided, and they just have a lack of impact to it. You couldn't do the MGS2 GW codec stuff on tapes, for example.

It also killed any form of interactivity with the characters, the easter eggs, the amazing "take me out of this context for a few minutes and let's talk about movies or games" break, having different opinions from the various characters etc...

There is virtually nothing gained with tapes. You could have had a live Codec in real time too, so that's not an excuse.

"While you're dealing with those skulls, let me tell you how the parasites reproduce..."

Nah, they could have had tapes for that still and live codec, I just would have burst out laughing if that did happen.

we don't know
is that real or a photoshop?
what is happening :|

Enough people have said it's in the files enough to be at least 98% sure it's there.
 
Yeah, fuck it. The game is big enough as it is for the asking price, I gladly pay for DLCs. Or wait, it's already a tv-show, just do a fucking season pass with a new chapter full of missions and hijinks!
 
The island mission will never come, they'd never have revealed it if there was a chance.

And why did chapter two tease a scene witn Paz that I'd already witnessed ages ago? Something really got messed up in this game.

they could have cut good chunk of side mission instead of completely cut chapter 3
 
Don't get your hopes up. There will be no Story DLC and even if, that won't really help the game's problems.

Konami knows, that people like us will gladly, gladly, gladly pay the money for DLC. I would pay $40 for a Chapter 3. fuck it, I would pay $60 for a Chapter 3. I'm sure all of you here would too. I think it's coming for that reason alone.

I don't think it'll come for the reason alone that it needs effort. No chance we will get a chapter 3. They will make money with microstransactions and small DLC for suits and stuff in MGO.
 
If we ever do get dlc for chapter 2 and a chapter 3 then ill be inclined to purchase the game. Just not sure if konami is even interested in adding content after kicking koj to the curve.

Can you imagine the outrage if Konami goes and sell Chapter 3 as DLC?


I already think the media is extremely lax in terms of hammering on MGSV for all its missing content and non-working FOB bullshit. The servers have been basically down since launch, two weeks ago..

If Ubisoft would've done any of this shit they would've been crucified.

What if it was, say, 80% done, and they just cut it to finish it off later because Konami wanted to actually see a return on their investment?

I'm not arguing btw. I just really think it's coming so they can milk us one last time

Yeah, this game can't be fixed with a patch or a DLC, sadly.
As far as the story is concerned i mean.
The gameplay could benefit with a patch giving you back Quiet, and a DLC like VR missions, with a whole series of crazy shit they can do.

i think the media is lax because this is already a massive, massive game as it is. like, this is the best full priced game i've bought in years content wise. it took me 102 hours to reach the last mission, and i completed the game at 68%. what was cut is just the cream at the top.
 
lol at the people begging to pay for them to finish the game

you should be ashamed of your words and deeds

Give me another area with even just side ops and I'll pay. Probably end up dropping another 50 hours even, I just love playing this game.
 
MGSV and Arkham Knight are the most polished triple A games on consoles this year.

TW3 performance sucked ass and it really didn't got adressed by the media. All said there were some dips here and there in their reviews, but it was sub 30fps all time when it rained and was even worse in cities.

Bloodborne is a funny one, it's okay, but they haven't fixed the frame pacing issue. It really is jarring when coming from other games.

Sure it could. A simple chapter about what Big Boss is / has been doing would solve a lot of story problems.

Yeah, they should release a Chapter 3 and retcon everything in Chapter 1 and 2, that would help.
 
I would absolutely buy Chapter 3 story DLC. Sure the story isn't up to snuff as was heavily cut, but I got a lot out of the game. I don't see how there could be any outrage over it. Paying for FOB is worse, IMO.

Meh. I enjoyed the story enough and even liked the twist and it's pseudo lead-in into MG1. I don't think anything needs to be removed, I just think it needs more.

I'm not one of those people who keeps saying "I wanted boss to kill kids and go nuclear!!!!" but the question of how he became a villain is literally the same situation as it was before the game came out.
 
A Chapter 3 where you play as Big Boss and then later Solid Snake as you destroy Phantom Snake. I'd probably pay more than full price for it.

I haven't quite finished Chapter 2 yet but I remember seeing that in the preview and thinking 'wtf'. So it doesn't end up getting shown? Fucking hell.
 
Ignoring the story, Kojima has created a perfect stealth gameplay framework which, in my opinion, shouldn't be left alone now that V got released. License it out so other devs can use and reskin it to fit their needs. (Hey Ubi, make a new Splinter Cell with that)

No it's shown but it's optional and you can access it really early in the game once you have built up the medical strut. I'm not sure what the exact requirements are but explore around there.
