Really? You think the patch that is to be released when the game launches is out? We're still 5 days away.

With all these cancellations for the CE, is it now going to be rare? Was it even rare to begin with?

You know these patches have to go through certification before being released right?

That's why I'm asking. Also the preload is already up which would also contain said patch.

Stop being silly, or have I taught you how games work today?
 
So I just got back from the hospital, had surgery and spent the night there. Felt like this lol:

That does make sense but is there any precedence for the day one patch going up this early?

I read in the other thread that one guy had to download a 700mb patch on XB1.

Edit: And also what Skele7on said. Day One patches are most of the time up before the game launches, lol.

I S-ranked this mission on both difficulties about two days ago. When you're near the power generator go into the weapon locker with the red door (works best if the three guys here are the last dudes you need to kill). Grab all the guns and the rocket launcher from there. After killing all targets and the waves start, dispose of the first wave coming through the big gate using whatever weapons you have. Then kill the two guys with the recoilless rifles (I usually throw a grenade at the one on the left, then focus on the other guy). Shoot 1 rocket at the helicoper. Now position yourself behind the waist-high concrete wall right across the red door that leads to the inner base. Keep your rocket launcher ready and as soon as you see guys running out, blast them to pieces. These are super easy kills. Repeat this three times and you're done.

I'll try this, thanks!

Guys it's still installing, it says on the screen 507 seconds but I don't know if that was supposed to tick down. 507 seconds is around 8 minutes but at this point it's been past 15.

For obvious reasons I don't want to power down but I'm afraid it's stuck.

PS4?

I literally put in my disc a bar came up and then it let me play. Seems strange what's happening to you.

PS4. After the intro (I finished the prologue) this game up:

"Installing game data...
Do not turn off the system.
507 seconds"

... I'm going to have to close and re-open the application aren't I? Fuck.

What is this post? Are you from the future? You meant Ground Zeroes, right? Peace Walker? Did you get it early? Did you just spoil the game for me?

Lol no, meant to say MGS4 but been posting about MGSV so much that my phone autocorrected it.

Don't worry.

Just close the game, restart you PS4 and then try again.

Also, start the game when the game is fully installed, it should do it automatically, just wait on the OS and don't start any game.

You can check the progress by pressing options and there should be something like 14gb/28Gb installed.

The quickest of impressions of MGSV

Hideo Kojima is a genius.

The intro left me so mentally exhausted I had to take a break (making this post).

If Kyle Cooper's sequence is the one I think it is Kojima must have paid him $20 and given him 4 days to complete it. It's neat, though.

You beautiful man.

What's with this patch talk? Is there a problem with the current version?

noo, but just want to make sure I won't be running into troubles.

Unpatched probably 100% okay, but somethings usually are found after gold so don't want my first play through ruined because of something stupid.

From Review thread made me chuckle.

Anyone know if you can or Quiet changes outfits at any point? My wife isn't really keen about me playing a game with her in it.

Honestly I'm not a fan of it either.

Cool deal, thanks for clearing that up.

There's plenty of time to kill, so I started compiling my playlist. Wha' d'ya think?

There's only two songs there that are authentic '84, but I'm more so going for what I want to feel like in '84 and what I think fits MGS.

And I've heard that there's some sort of docket some of you guys compiled with all your tracks? Is that still a thing?
 
I read some other stores in Europe have also been cancelling the CE, makes you wonder what's going on exactly. Sucks they do it so close to release too.

Someone on GAF PM'd me telling me that there was no Kyle Cooper sequence. Now I'm confused. I guess time will tell.

I was going to order the CE online but opted to get it in store instead. I have terrible luck with late deliveries in my area. Regardless, it looks like I managed to dodge a bullet.

It strikes me that reviewers have been super cool about what they've said and what they've haven't, for the most part.

The game is a little overwhelming.

Shiiiiit. That's very cool.

And it would explain the sublime design of the interlacing 'Metal Gear Solid V' and 'The Phantom Pain' words in the game's logo/title card.

He did the opening credits for'Seven', 'Donnie Brasco'... all sorts of films. He's incredible.

Oh yeah, he did the MGS3 interactive opener and MGS2 too.

That's our Kojima.

At least I hope Snake doesn't routinely ogle her like her did EVA. I've got a feeling that sort of stuff will be better handled in this one. Though I could be totally wrong...

I like that MGS isn't afraid of sex, I just wish it was handled better.

Wait, that sounds bad.
