But, hey.

The dude bait-and-switched Raiden and made a trailer for TPP for the VGAs... So Konami is a-okay with him cutting the story content to patch out for free a week later!

Plus P.T. permanently removed from the store making it something you can't even get anymore.

all just a gag tho! i'm sure of it.

 

[Yabberwocky]

If anyone wants I snagged this off the page's source code.

Relaxing rainforest sounds for your long nights.

If nothing else has come out of today, at least we all got a nice relaxation track. The sporadic animal calls are unnerving, but the rain is lovely.

 

[Foffy]

I must say, the fact this ruse was planned since August 1st, and the postmortem of MGSV gave this deep legitimacy, this is a ruse that only worked because of Konami's fuckery.

Fuck you, Konami.

 

[Miracle]

I got you sorted

Risky click...very risky click...

I'm not gonna do it until I know what it is!

 

[BjornTheBear]

I honestly feels like Kojima likes Rooster Teeth, and pulled this himself.

 

[legacyzero]

 

[papercan55]

I had a lot of fun with this and honestly I feel there is something more here.

good spirit.

 

[Foffy]

Ok, maybe not from the beginning. Changing his mind on what he wants to do with the story during development is something we've heard Kojima done a couple times.

Either that or he couldn't finish the game and just decided to run with it. Either way,

chapter 3

is never happening, not under Kojima's eye anyway.

And

Spoiler

we were gonna see The Boss in it, too.

This is good, isn't?

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Such a lust for trolling.

WHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!

 

[JackelZXA]

the pc dataminers did find some interesting stuff. there could still be something coming for V, but this was just an opportunistic troll.

 

[viHuGi]

What happened?

 

[Chabbles]

Even if this was real or not, theres very little chance of it being real or fake unless it was really fake, or they faked it really well.

 

[yami4ct]

And

Spoiler

);

Eh, just accept it now. It'll save you heartbreak later. It's not like MGS was an incomplete story without V. V gave me a great gameplay experience and is the definitive MGS in that respect. Any story fuckery is just off to the side.

Is the BlackHound game even real?

Oh what the fuck....

[yami4ct]

It's really hard to tell. I hope not, because it becomes a really great prank if that's the case. If it is a real indie game, it's just opportunistic and gross.

Assets get left on discs all the time. Best not to read too much into it.

I am not Black Hound. All of my posts were merely photos (that I did take myself). I was just another fan in hope of a new game by Kojima. I hope to make a game that is a true spiritual successor to Silent Hills one day but I don't have the skills needed yet. I didn't have the skills so I took and edited photos to show how a game I would make later could feel/look like. In the distant future, it might happen.
I enjoyed this subreddit so much the past few weeks. The developers of Black Hound, however, seem to not care about their game and I truly hate them for what they have done.
Thank you.

 

[majik13]

Here is the DLC!

 

[Jakten]

So 140-85 (Person who posted all the cryptic photos) is claiming to be a hoax on Reddit but is saying that they are unrelated to ingsoc and Black Hound and are equally pissed off at them.

Edit: I'm slow.

 

[GeekMarty]

Oh what the fuck....

What the fuck is going on?

Pawns put in place by Kojima.

Nothing, obviously.

Summary: Everyone who's a fan of Kojima's games is a lunatic

 

[Ether_Snake]

As we got closer to the end of the counter, it was expected a bunch of people would fuck around.

What we know is:

Ingsoc.org asked for emails a few days ago, in a message hidden in the source code, to be sent to chosen@ingsoc.org and it said you'd be contacted soon with some details or whatever. Once that period was over it changed to say that you're too late, but that you'd be able to contribute later. Now that the counter is finished, it says only the chosen will see the truth. So right now it's probably waiting a bit to get replies from those who were chosen, such as the one posted earlier who appeared to be the only yet having replied to them.

Calm down

 

[Jason Frost]

So, what happened?

 

[SchrodingerC]

Hopes were cautiously raised and they still fell in a fiery blaze.
Our only hope now for a new silent hill game is either a spiritual successor or more konami pachinko machines.

 

[Creaking]

Summary: Everyone who's a fan of Kojima's games is a lunatic

I can't tell who the bigger lunatics are. Us, or the ones who set up this hoax.

Pretty much.

I was referring to both groups, actually.

Let me break down for you what's going to happen.

More sockpuppets claiming to be "chosen" and saying they've been emailed something amazing by Kojima himself, but can't say anything then ending with "Stay tuned, it's not over yet "

 

[MindGamingMantis]

I'm so confused. Just what the fuck exactly is going on?

How did this all start?

 

[yami4ct]

That's the brilliant thing about this prank. No one can ever prove that they got a real email. It will perpetuate itself into eternity that way.

Wasn't that just papercan55 though? I'm wondering how anyone really would have known about ingsoc a couple of days ago anyways.

 

[stargateheaven]

aren't those japanese station names that campbell says

 

[Sifl]

Let's be honest, none of us can help ourselves. There are the people that make up these crazy conspiracies, the ones that eat it up hoping it will be real, and people like me who like to watch the destruction unfold and watch people's hearts shatter.
We all need eachother

 

[Jakten]

Yea, they are in Hyougo Prefecture which is where Kojima is from apparently.

Is the moral of the story that silent hills fans are the worst?

Because this was pretty bad.

 

[Ether_Snake]

We have known for a long time about the site, and I saw the messages in the source code myself. I never sent them my email, I thought many others would.

Two hours ago everyone was convinced i was kojima because of duran duran.
I can't prove who i am not, but i do hope that something is happening just like everyone else.People have known about the website for while, but tonight it took off like spreading wild fire.

And i don't know what you mean about an email, i haven't received anything special just yet :-(

 

[Scrooged]

Everyone should just go play MGSV and forget about this nonsense.

 

[Foffy]

I actually thought this was more linked to Metal Gear. In fact, there were more references to that than Silent Hill regarding the website.

 

[Anung]

Silent Hill is its fans. We perpetuate our own punishment and live forever with the guilt and torment in a constant cycle of hype and disappointment.

Yes it seems to be cut from MGSV, well at least the line V.Snake was meant to say. There's one other person that still says that in-game.
