wait, are we still pretending mgo is dead too?

I am sure they are going to release it but there's a likely chance they just cancel it... I fear it will be heavily F2P style with micro transactions which I bet will actually go F2P after a year or two...

These are our fears and we are certain of the worse because all we hear from Konami is terrible news, what they been doing internally. I have my theories...
 
LMAO these people trying to kill the hype. The game it's so good it's not even funny.

Reactions of my girlfriend when i was playing the hospital scene: "What the hell is that? Wait, WAT?, WHAT IS HAPPENING!!!!, I CAN'T HANDLE THE STRESS OMGGGGGGG"

xD
 
I've never played MGO before so it's absence isn't bothering me so much, the FOB stuff is a bit disappointing, especially regarding MB coins and spectating only.

I love the attitude considering this is quite literally the first time I've ever shown any sign of disappointment regarding the game. The game will be a masterpiece of course, and I'll get over the exclusion of co-op (mostly because it was never officially confirmed and was simply assumed by many to be in after an iDroid concept video), but the friend "invitations" and death of MGO are letdowns for me.

Death of MGO?!? WatchatalkinaboutWillis??? Being released in October is far from being "dead", kind sir.

We are not speaking of story, we are talking about the online features, we thought they would provide more interaction or be fair and not try to sink into our wallets for micro-transactions. and if MGO will actually be a thing.

Ok well sorry for posting, I guess I'll remove the Snake x Raiden hentai tat from my lower back because I'm not troo fan 💅

you probably won't find much help here

this thread is basically the "losers who didn't get the game early" community club

Stoked to get it early - Won't be able to play it till tonight / tomorrow though!

By the way, is there anything that anyone REALLY recommends doing in GZ before I start TPP? I've completed the main GZ mission, and extracted 4 POW's on my PS4. I completed a few other things but on a different PS3 save which I don't know if I can use, but I can quickly do some last minute stuff if I need to on the PS4 version if I need to.

PS, can I get a prize for being the biggest idiot in Outer-GAF? I got an email yesterday from Amazon telling me my order for TPP had been despatched... So yeah, I accidentally pre-ordered the game twice. I suck.

Maybe some Gaffer is in the area where you live and want's a copy :)

hahaawwwww yeaaahhhhh

Apparently I didn't hear the postman turn up, which I always do when I'm sleeping, so it was there for at least an hour. Just installed, ready to play, but gotta go to the farm shop >_<
 
so FOB really is behind a paywall for more than 1? O_O

Yep, no way to get MB coins in game either.

Congratulations on the copy mate, yeah I'd say rescue all the POW's and the guards that'll carry over. If you can't do that, then just do the main GZ mission right before starting TPP for extra immersion.

Use your empty magazines, these two on the bridge can be distracted to the right side of the bridge because there's a small slope. They walk very slowly so wait.

Tried a few small shops in west Michigan but no luck securing a copy early. Guess I'll have to wait with the regular folk! Hopefully working Sunday will pass the time quicker than reading impressions while trying to avoid spoilers.

Just finished GZ main mission again. I was reminded how much I suck at this game. I am kinda worried about TPP difficulty as well....

That way I can't be disappointed when they cancel it.

I don't get the mentality at all I realize we haven't had much news but assuming its cancelled seems a bit premature. The LA team has been working like crazy from what it looks like.

Run through the missions again, watch speed runs and youtube the CQC & aiming tutorials. You'll be fine.
 
How about you guys discuss the game in PM instead of out here?

It does take a while to get used to but after a few tries you'll be running around guards like it's nothing.

In what way do you suck ?

Keep getting caught even with reflex mode I guess.... Also when the alarm goes off trying to hide until alarm is off was a bit harder than previous games imo.

The main mission took me 84 minutes (it's not my first time) with 14 retries lol

I mean... not in a way that I can't beat the mission or something... just I need to do a lot of retries and can't beat it clean with low kills.
 
It's a very small, minor thing. If there were to be a discussion about it he can PM me anytime he/she wants. Don't worry, we aren't assholes. If I wanted to spoil you, I could have done it a long ass time ago.

Ah I'm not calling either of you assholes, just worried someone might click it by mistake and get spoiled. I didn't mean to sound like a prick while I said that lol. Sorry if it came out that way.

Are you playing impatient ? Just take your time, mark the enmies and take them out one buy one. No need to stress out about how long you take for the mission.

I took awhile to finish my first few times too but once you play through it more and just go in and mess around not trying to complete missions thats when you get used to things. Don't worry about enemies that spot you or alarms just practice for TPP.

yea I should... I usually play MGS games as half stealth/ half action...I just can never go full stealth since I get very impatient these days...
 
MGSV will require more situational awareness than before, observe and react. If nothing else works keep distracting everyone with your empty magazine, it's infinite so not much to worry there. Just like this guy.

Now that I think of it, it almost feels like a Souls game.

It's all good, I just didn't want you or anyone else to worry. No need to be sorry. :D

Thanks, it's just the pre-release panic's setting in finally. :p
