Metal Gear Solid V E3 2015 Trailer

Neat.
 
so after like 5-6 trailers, do we at least have a sound theory as to what the phrase "V HAS COME TO" can mean?

I think it can mean a 5th snake/4th clone is in the game

Kojima said in an interview with Geoff Keighley that V stands for Victory. Japanese studios were lacking behind other developers with lighting, texure rendering, animations etc. and so he wanted to create a new engine, the Fox engine. With MGSV they try to keep up with those western developers.

Have you considered that they might be... different versions?

AFAIK Kojima always uses the PS4 version for gameplay footage and trailers.
 
Please, the dog in FO4 can't even die.
He can be incapacitated but not killed outright instead of being a side character. It's like saying "Ocelot can't die." He's probably important to the plot then. The dogs finally isn't as stupid as he was in Fallout 3 tho, and can actually pick up models in the environment like wrenches, that's a really neat attention to detail is that he picks up and interacts with environment objects based on context. Plus the world likely has no or very little loading screens compared to past games. And can handle base building in realtime with tons of variety allowed. Knowing players they're gonna make some ridiculous looking bases.

Here it is again, better skin reproduction. Left: e3 2014 right: e3 2015

Skin looks great but the hair..
 
I'm not defending anything, i'm correcting people when they are wrong about stuff, that is all.

Or would you disagree that the game looks now better than ever? if so say what looks better or worse? stop aiming at me and focus on the discussion.

He said the bottom screen looked weird, that's not a fact that you can correct.

And I'm not aiming at you, it's simply the fact that whenever anyone says something that doesn't reinforce the hype train, you're always the first to pop up and complain. That negatively affects actual discussion more than me pointing it out.
 
Lighting has a HUGE impact too, another source of light can dramatically change how an object or face looks. One light source makes hard shadows giving the sense of depth and rigidity. Light sources from two or more sides makes something look flat sometimes more appealing, sometimes not.
You bring up a great point. It might be lighting differences but i'd say they improved the subsurface scattering. Like the skin looks more pinkish now. here is a 2015 vs 2013 comparison.

No. It really doesn't, at least not on its own, it helps gain a better IQ but things like Resolution give better IQ also.

I'm not saying it's the only aspect of IQ but the resolution's still the same.

Anti-aliasing is a huge aspect of image quality, saying otherwise is just crazy.

So, do you care to explain how the IQ took a hit? Because I am not seeing it.

No he said it looked "rough" first before he edited his post, that's why i quoted him and it simply does not. I proved that this is not the case, the AA and dithering looks better nobody can deny that. You basically ask me to agree with what he said that the game looks worse now and i should never interfere again.

This has nothing to do with defending a game. I won't name the person but there is someone who defends Ubisoft games, he blaims youtube compression for a graphically downgrade... now that is what i'd call defending a game. I'm not defending MGSV, it's just that I haven't found anything yet that bugs me about this game. Ok ok.... maybe the goofy hats in MGO :P but everything else just sounds and looks better the more we see from this game.

How transparent. Try actually reading the posts i'm saying instead of cherry picking one aspect of why the comparison is bullshit. The biggest one being console vs high end pc footage.
 
I'll be finishing that video up tonight since the gameplay is dropping 2 am hawaii time, so the fan theory on Paz that I'm going to follow for the sake of scene placement is that
Paz is one in a series of clones of the Boss.
It makes sense to me because I never understood why Zero chose to clone Snake when there was a soldier he idolized more than him, and it explains her importance to Cipher and Skullface.

This, but... I wouldn't put it past Kojima considering the
The Boss AI nonsense in Peace Walker
and that
Big Boss already has three clones
.
 
All of the bottom shots look like shit. If that is the new version, I hope you can turn off those specific postprocess filters. The first lighting is waaaaay better.

Top tier stupid enough to be true.

This....would be amazingly, outrageously, stupidly amazing.
 
Looks like new standards in graphics, gameplay, and awesomeness in general... with yet another odd, convoluted story. Yep, it's MGS.

Not really , don't get me wrong its going to be my Game of the Year 2015 and I think it looks amazing but there are still some parts where you can see last-gen PS3/360 holding this game back. I only mean in terms of graphics.

The latest trailer is makes you scratch your head if you played Peace Walker and Ground Zeroes.

I don't really think so. Keep in mind the game is running at a rock solid 60 fps and 1080p on the Playstation 4, and is open world. Considering that, the game looks incredible.

I think its a technical Marvel , the 1080P/60 FPS is really amazing and the Fox Engine should be used for more games.

But there are still some bad aliasing and weird LOD bugs in the PS4 version and even the PC version slightly less.

Keep in mind I play the game side by side on a 4K monitor running it Native 4K on PC and 1080P on my PS4. So obviously Aliasing can be dealt with by resolution.

Going to buy the game 3 times. Once on PS4 , while waiting for my PS4 CE to arrive . Then Preorder the PC version.

HYPE.
 
So i've beaten mgs 1 and 2, played until about probably 75% complete of MGS3, beat 4 and never played PW. Played GZ and beat the main line of it. How lost am I going to be going into V? I don't have a ps3 anymore as I sold it and I don't really want to play through 3 and PW on the vita. Possible to play them on the ps4?

My Recommendation Play MGS 3 > PW > and Ground Zeroes.

Honestly you'll appreciate this trailer so much more.

3 is really a backstory for Big Boss , How he came to become Big Boss.

Peace Walker is how he founded his own PMC.

Currently no way to play them on PS4.

If you really want to appreciate the awesomeness and Hype of V , its really quite essential to experience 3+PW+GZ since 1 and 2 are about Raiden and Snake.

Do you have X360? PW and 3 HD is also on it. And you need to play PW (or at least read the story in GZ)

Bookmarking this post because that sounds exactly like what Kojima would do.
 
I knew the 360 would come in handy eventually for more than playing USF4 on it lol.

how does the HD bundle run on the 360? I had it for the ps3 but don't have the console anymore.

That's... nah. He wouldn't.

Would he?

He fucking well would.

Nah... that's...

Why didn't I think of that?!

Runs perfectly well, sir. If you need a 360 co-op buddy, feel free to hit me up.
