Did they really? was there a note in the notice at the start of the game? thats kinda shitty.

Nah, I was kidding cause they moved the majority of the Biological Material I was using as GMP to the FOB which pissed me off. It's still probably true though.

 

[brau]

At least we will finally see him work on something new.

This!

Was excited to see a horror game from him. Too bad its not SHs... but i hope its something along the same lines, just under a different publisher.

Any other IP should be interesting.

 

[SzczwanyGapa]

Have a little respect for yourself.

It's not THAT bad. LOD is so poor that it makes me laugh and it's ugly. But it's a fun game, especially on a 42 inch plasma (sitting about two feet from it) with surround headset by night.

TL;DR

I've believed in some pretty far out there theories, but I can't force myself to believe this is true. Why? Because this would be way too silly, even for Kojima!

Haha, I'll admit I put a decent (way too many hours) amount of time in that game. The Dark Brotherhood quest line is still one of my favorites story lines in any game.

Wasn't that version the worst version? with blocking bugs and terrible FPS?

that i believed you says a lot of things about this game.

EDIT: Also, Hey guys been a while, hope you're all well

I still don't know how I feel about MGSV.

In a lot of ways it's my least favourite MGS.

But then I started thinking about something.

At first I thought that

Spoiler

Skull face

was a bit pointless. However, i have now realised that actually he is responsible for almost everything in the series.

Before I explain, I need to say that I have largely stayed out of story discussions so if this point was obvious to everyone then ignore me.

Spoiler tagged just in case someone hasn't finished the game.

Spoiler

It seems to me that Zero wanted to make amends with Big Boss, But due to Skullface he never got a chance. If Skullface hadn't infected Major Zero with the parasite that eventually caused him to enter a vegetative state then he wouldn't have set up the AI network.
If there was no AI network then the chances are that the events of, at least, MGS2 and 4 wouldn't have occurred or would have been vastly different.

So basically, while I think that certain aspects of the narrative set up future plot points in the timeline in an interesting way, I still think that the narrative as a whole is the weakest in the main series (numbered games).

The gameplay is still great though.

My ranking of the series based mostly on what i like most about video games (the narrative as opposed to gameplay quality):

1. MGS2
2. MGS1
3. MGS4
4. MGS3
5. MGSV

haha, yeah for some reason MGS3 has never hooked me the way that the others did. It's also the one I have played the least, I think i have only finished it about 2 times whereas I have finished the others at least 5 or 6 times each except for MGSV.
I still think it's better than 80% of other games though.

Fair enough, chief.

 

[swearing-circle]

Just got the platinum for MGS5.

Animal conservation trophy was by far the worst. They took an annoying easter egg from MGS3 and it made it into it's own mechanic except there was a 3 minute wait between attempts.

It was just plain irritating. Although towards the end I started getting extremely rare animals on first attempts by spamming the hell out of the bait bottle before leaving. Got the Leopard tortoise and tsuchinoko on my first attempts.

Think the red fox was the one that gave me the most problems until i realised you could plant cages at a helicopter point for easy results.

I loved the game and it's definitely my GOTY for the gameplay alone but my god that whole mechanic should never have been in the game.

Kojima has killed any lust for me to come in this thread and talk about Metal Gear. But hey, he ignited my love for Bowie at least.

You can still come and hang out. You know? We are all friends here. We can make fun of stuff together, talk Persona 5, or even discuss the hype for Star Wars!

:3

Such lust

to get over Kojima

. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[BadWolf]

It's easy for me to position MGS2 at the top of the list, since it's my fave game of all time, but beyond that my mind is full of fuck when I try to arrange the rest of the series.

Star Wars huh?
Love the original trilogy and I think the prequels are okay with the exception of Episode 2 which I thought was abysmal.
I can't help but think that something about Episode 7 looks......."off".
It kind of looks like a high budget fan film to me based on the trailers.
I'm sure it'll be good though

Trailers have been really well edited for Episode 7. No heavy spoilers, nor hints at big reveal on beats of hte story.

Very excited. I am on the opposite end, where i think the movie is going back to its roots. Back to what made the originals special.

I'm definitely really excited to see it. Might wait until a few weeks after release though. People that go to my local movie theater can be real dicks so I want to wait for the crowds to die down a bit

Ugh.. nothing can put a big damp on a movie going like a bad crowd. I am going day 1... i hope i am making the right decision. But then my work is taking us to see it in IMAX, so plenty of chances to enjoy it.

Nice
Something I've wondered for a while.
Are IMAX seats terrible everywhere?
My local IMAX has awful uncomfortable and no legroom at all. Its the main reason i hardly go there. I'm not especially tall

Spoiler

6ft1

so it can't just be me that has trouble with the leg room

The RPX theatre i go has seats like these.

Super comfortable.

There is also this theater.

The screen is not as big as i would like, but they are deffo comfortable.

 

[Screaming Meat]

I'm so disappointed in Kojima.

Playing MGSV was tantamount to having caught him banging my wife; every hour with that trash was like another inch of his evil cock buried in her... I... I couldn't stop watching.

Funny enough this is why he was fired.

Spoiler

line "its not over yet snake!!

gave me the chills!

Yup, and it only took me one phone call.

Who says I didn't want to see Kojima banging my wife in front of me...? I'm disappointed he didn't.

I wouldn't be completely surprised if he just chose to retire now instead of working for another company tbh.

Little to no chance of that happening.

The new outfits look nice on Fox Engine.

D-Horse looks pretty cool, too.

Hell yeah they do. I'd do questionable things for an MGS 3 remake, as if I really needed a reason to replay it.

 

[SixStringPsycho]

I got a question. This may have been asked before. But does any of you guys who own the PS4 version of the game, when youre on the chopper choosing missions, does your PS4 fan go into overdrive mode? Mine goes loud in there.

My old one did.
I recently bought the new model and that stays pretty quiet

Finally a MGS fan I can relate to. Well, sort of. I can't relate to MGS2 being a favorite.

But MGS3 also never hooked as much as the others. It's the only one I've only finished once. I think I will try the HD version for that 60 fps goodness though. That might change my mind since the framerate in 3 really bothered coming from 2.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Hell yeah they do. I'd do questionable things for an MGS 3 remake, as if I really needed a reason to replay it.

If that happened and they added crouch-walking and MGS4's controls, it would be perfect to me.

 

[Marty-esque]

Too bad those outfits weren't released earlier. I would have bought them if I were still playing.

 

[Timeaisis]

Oh you can actually button up the boss's outfit. That's good.

 

[onepiecefan]

Was just gonna say this as well, good to know.

button up is not canon tho. Kojima knows.

 

[Arjac]

but she had it that way 90% of the game

 

[brau]

but she had it that way 90% of the game

If MGSV was pre mgs3 then i could understand this. But since its After, then the zipper MUST be down. Last shot from Eva and The Boss, how unzipped were they? ALL TEH WAY! hence button up not being canon.

Also, this discussion is more interesting

than the story in MGSV.

 

[BadWolf]

The poncho is the real canon.

[Chronology]

How much does it cost for all the costumes together?

 

[Timeaisis]

I just realized like half the characters in MGS wear a poncho at some point.

Spoiler

And it's their coolest outfit.
