New MGS5 The Phantom Pain Announcement on Wednesday

Status
Not open for further replies.
So, I'm really hoping that one of two things happens:

1. the release date is earlier than expected
2. Or the release date is some months out, hopefully not in September or October but hopefully in June or May.

And that person can enjoy a perma ban.

From the internet.

Hayter is MGSV. I BELIEVE.

But there's no way Kojima would reveal it. That's because it would spoils the last parts of the game.

*Fade to black... Credits... Suddenly, a parachute opens over a jungle. A shadowy figure ghosts a couple of guard-dogs, catches a guard that fell asleep and offs him, and arrives to the outside of some kind of compound.

*Recieves some kind of radio transmission. It's the voice of Keifer Sutherland. It's Big Boss, updating you on the objective: "Infiltrate the enemy fortress "Outer Heaven" and locate "Gray Fox".

*David Hayters Voice: Understood.

Back to zero, Kojima? INDEED.

Heh, that would be cool.

But there's a huge gap between TPP events and MG1 isn't there? Like 10 years?

Yeah, The Phantom Pain starts in 1984 and Metal Gear MSX takes place in 1995 (I think). The game may take place over a long period of time though, or maybe there'll just be a big time jump at some point.

Is it possible for Grey Fox to exist in TPP's timeline?
Yes. Frank Jaeger was active since the 60s I think, and I believe he served under Big Boss in the 80s.
 
Yep. If I understand the timeline correctly, Les Enfant Terribles has already happened, and the Triplets should already be well into age (Like 10 IIRC)

Yeah I am curious how cloning is handled in the MGS universe.

In other fictional properties, the clones often "grow" at a rapid rate to their source's age.

Ie. In Alien Resurrection (forget how terrible the movie is), Ripley is cloned basically almost immediately to an adult.

But the damage would be done

Well, you shouldn't be on GAF a week before the game comes out. Go play Arkham Knight or something.

Why would he parachute into Outer Heaven when he actually swam in?
 
A week before MGSV hits, a thread on Neogaf will appear titled "DAVID HAYTER VOICES SOLID SNAKE IN MGSV"

There is no way out.

Avoid this forum until you've finished the game
That's actually... a good point. Will only follow my subscribed threads when i hear about a leak or when the game launches.

What if this big announcement is for a PS4 and Xbox One re-release of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection with newly added bonus scenes to set up the plot for MGSV?

Or big and tall sizes for their new Metal Gear Solid clothing line?

I'm not one for re releases, but I'd be all about that.

Uh...go play Peace Walker then.

And the announcement is pretty specific to Metal Gear Solid V. So........

Hope so. Finally bring the PC up to speed too.

if this was a konami announcement, i would believe it, but seeing it's so specific to the MGSV clock, i dont think it's that.

I absolutely love your Devin Townsend Avatar <3
SUPERCRUSH!
used this for a good time, but the Life is Strange hype made me change to a max avatar. This announcement awoke the Punished Devin and made my hype go into HYPERDRIVE!
 
Yep. If I understand the timeline correctly, Les Enfant Terribles has already happened, and the Triplets should already be well into age (Like 10 IIRC)

They're technically not triplets. Solid and Liquid are twins (who were once octuplets until the other brothers were sacrificed) but Solidus wasn't one of the octuplets, instead he was created afterwards from a different batch as far as I understand. Naomi has a line in MGS4 where she tells Old Snake that neither him nor Liquid are an exact copy of Big Boss, and she says "which is why they created Solidus." And Eva never refers to giving birth to Solidus either, she only refers to Solid and Liquid in her speech.

It's weird because you'd think Liquid's line about the octuplets was specifically planted for the twist that there was a third survivor, but apparently it's not the case and Solidus is altogether different. What's also interesting is at the end of Ground Zeroes it specifically tells you in the ending timeline that Les Enfant Terribles was abandoned in 1976 (a year after Big Boss went into the coma) whereas we've only known that it started in 1972 for quite some time.

So Solid and Liquid are 12 years old in TPP and somewhere in between 1972 and 1976 Solidus was born making him oddly the youngest, even though he looks the oldest.
 
So TPP takes place in the 80's? Forgive me, I have been shying away from info about this but has Jaeger been confirmed as a character in TPP? Has Mozambique been confirmed as a location in TPP?

The 3 clones in MGS all suffer from accelerated aging. It's why Solidus appears older than Liquid and Solid. Even though he's younger.
 
that would break steam, tho.
and would be "suicidal". doesnt make sense to to that. maybe if you pre order you get a discount on the collection, but giving it away for free? :/
EDIT: sorta beaten

After trying out Ground Zeros, I prefer Sutherland over Hayter. JackBauerSnakeBoss is the future. You would all do well to embrace this.
although i'm not on the "hayter was always terrible" boat, i totally agree. The GZ intro gave a bad impression, but the ending and all subsequent trailers showed that he was an amazing choice. The Quiet Scene really shows the difference.

kojims does it for the glorys
Well, if he REALLY wanted, i guess he could order konami to do that XD


No... NO.. NOT MY FETISH!! ANNEKE!!

GAAAAAAH
Anneke is awesome, although the Devin version of Fallout(on the new album) was better. Waay more oomph. Either way, it's my favorite track of the album :p

I had my doubts leading up to it. But he did a great job. He just needs more lines :(

Nope! Anneke is SUPERIOR! :p
