Ah yes ok, I know it but don't know its name

Are some of you really going back to the MGS3 theories about Snake reliving BB's memories? Really.......come on guys.......
Please anyone explain to me what does Fulton recovery mean? Staying still near a wall and wiat until you recover (aka the system that first implemented in the Gateway series)?
I don't think so.
This has been the speculation for every Big Boss game since 2003 and it's been wrong every time.
I don't really see what they have to gain from making that plot twist.

Why? The wikipedia link even makes thing much worse to explain, in fact it doesn't explain anything related to MGS. Few words from HyperBitHero (to be thanked) explained everything. If you are bothered that I asked, why even reply? There are kind people who can explain.
Because what I linked you to is a link to exactly what it is. You didn't ask what Fulton Recovery meant in MGS, nor how it was used gameplay wise. You simply asked *what* it is.
Of course, I was talking about the recovery system in MGS. I don't give a damn about the real one, this is an MGS thread after all. ANyway, thanks for the link that explains the real life one.
Forget what PolyGon said. This article I posted was long before he showed GZ to the public back in 2012. He had the whole story planned and he knew that Solid Snake was going to be in the next game (MGSV). It's a no-brainer really and one shouldn't be surprised if Solid Snake ends up infiltrating the base you built in the ending of TPP.
So I was thinking (as I lay in bed trying to nap), what if the amount of time and energy you spend customizing, growing, and fortifying Mother Base (Outer Heaven) is what ultimately makes the difficulty of the final stage/mission/level? It fast forwarding to Solid Snake infiltrating the Outer Heaven you build throughout the game and having to bring down Metal Gear and Big Boss would a very interesting and welcomed twist.
To answer your question. No. Hell Kojima's trailers are purposely edited to mislead people because Kojima hates trailers that spoil too much.
Personally, I'm pretty sure this concept will be featured in the game somehow. As I said before, Solid Snake is still the hero of MGS, and what we find out about Big Boss he must find out too. We cannot know more than him about BB.We don't know what the vertical lines are.

It's just lens flare. Kojima reveals in this video that he wanted to experiment with lots of different lens flare techniques and this one was inspired by a Japanese Idol group. He talks about it at the 10:39 mark.
I really don't see why you'd think that, there's nothing to suggest this should be the case at all. I highly doubt Snake knows about most of Big Boss's intimate life moments, compared to us who've seen most of it firsthand.
It could just be the effect they wanted, to have both vertical and horizontal lines. I really, really don't think it means anything. He's incorporating so many different lens flare types that it's much more likely to be just an effect he wanted because he liked the look of it.
Go look at my post above, you are talking about the wrong effect.

People thought this was going to happen in Peace Walker, especially when Famitsu said there was a big secret after completing the game that was going to amazing. Then it just turned out to be Vocaloid stuff.
What vertical lines?
Really? I never knew this was a PW theory. I suppose it's fair to say it's more probable in TPP.
What effect are you talking about then? The sound effect when looking at a bright light?
You mean the really bright horizontal flare that occurs when you look at a bright light?
That's part of the game design and Kojima talks about it in the video I posted previously. It's meant to signal to the player danger, that the player is about to be spotted.
.
I don't believe there will be some sort of hidden chapter in TPP at the end. Again people keep forgetting Big Boss and Kaz go back to Foxhound after this, so they'll finish the game as "good guys" and renew with Zero, but Big Boss will be damaged goods. I think the next game after TPP would be an MG1 remake, and Kojima will go work on something else.
I KNOW. And that's the lens flare he is talking about in the interview, not the orange vertical lines.
That's assuming that part isn't retconned. I'm curious that, if it isn't retconned, how that will all work out (going back to the U.S. to command FoxHound and all that).
But he talks about the orange vertical lines at 10:39 mark. He says it was an effect he saw by a Japanese Idol group.

I read the storyline to figure out the characters so that I could understand MGS2. I played MGS2 and 3...
Will I really be missing so much?
I'm still pretty convinced that this is what is going to happen. I'm not sure how it would work in the grand scheme of the canon, but it sure would be cool to see BB's downfall and then play what is essentially an open world Metal Gear remake as Solid Snake. Kojima even seems to be hinting at it with all this "descent into madness" imagery.Or he surprises us all by giving us the biggest and longest MGS game to date and we get to also play as Solid Snake again or at least seem him again at his prime.
We play Big Boss's downfall, which would be absolutely incredible in and of itself but also getting to play a partially remade or fully remade metal gear 1 at the end of the game?
That would be godlike, or even a cutscene.
Or both.
I just want the game.
Maybe I should play MG and MG2...
You should, they're pretty great.
It's on MGS2 HD, right?
Maybe I should play MG and MG2...
Find me a picture of the orange vertical lines in a clip from that band.
The first game is frustrating and has aged very poorly.
The second one is fantastic and has aged very well.

But then again, it's Kojima. Nobody knows what the hell that guy's thinking. There's no way he'll ever go the obvious route in one of these games, so all speculation is bascially pointless.
I am too especially when Ocelot's voice actor in this(Troy Baker) says the scope of the game is HUGE HUGE HUGE, absolutely mindboggling.
I think this game will surprise us all in the end, I think it's obvious that we see Big Boss go bad guy but at the end what else lies in store for us?
That's the real question...what else has that crazy Kojima cooked up for us?
I personally can't wait to find out, especially with his constant teasing of certain little things here and there in the trailers, the fact that Outer Heaven has been referenced not only as a title card but also as a logo, and possible location(an abandoned underground nuclear testing facility in South Africa). I just can't wait to finally see this game in person, play the journey and build up Diamond Dogs/Outer Heaven...all for revenge.
We're on the same boat. Each new Metal Gear game is backed by more and more anticipation. I've been a fan since 1998 and to say I'm hyped would be a massive understatement.
*high five*
Me too! Then I realized there were games I missed on the MSX/NES and I played those and played the re-translated MSX versions on MGS3: Subsistence.
This hype for the new game is the proper motivation I need to go play the MSX MG1 and 2 on the HD collection. I've known the stories from those two games forever now, but never got around to actually playing them. Shame on me.
I think there's been this vocal subset of mgs fans who really never got over the raiden debacle, Kojima's response to that debacle was "more snake" through big boss. A larger chunk of people were like "cool! But what about solid?" Kojima, clearly trolling again refuses to give the fans what they want by giving them an old and broken down solid snake... even going so far as to model the young, prime of his career solid snake and serve it to the fans through a mask. We've never really gotten a modern metal gear game with prime solid snake since the game that started it all, mgs1. So I get it, but most of these solid snake theories remind me of the large contingent of fans that thought big boss and 1964 would be a prologue, a flashback, a vr, a time travel situation, etc. I hope Kojima will give a proper, modern solid snake tale.... but this isn't it

I really don't see it that way. Big Boss clearly has an identity of his own apart from Solid Snake. As Big Boss has gotten older, he clearly looks a bit different than Solid Snake as well (this can be traced back to Solid not being a 100% identical clone).
Big Boss is an interesting character in a different way than Solid Snake. I like to look at it like this; Big Boss is to Darth Vader as Solid Snake is to Luke Skywalker. If you're familiar with Star Wars, it should be easy to see what I'm getting at.
Totally, and I completely agree with you, I'm just saying there's a subset of fans that clearly prefer solid and really want to shoehorn him into all the big boss games.
