Captain Boomer in Moby Dick lost an arm to the whale which was replaced by a prosthetic limb (whale bone if I recall correctly). Might explain the hook-armed Boss, flaming whale, and Moby Dick developer name. Just maybe.
Nice catch.

are people still debating whether or not this is MGS5?
The title with the missing portions of the letters proves it.
Why would Kojima release MGS this generation, that's about to end in a few months. I know it will still sell but idk....They should have made it for durango and orbis.
Nice catch.
lol volgin. hope not, game needs a decent villain.
I think they are separated games:
MGS Ground Zeroes (PS3, 360) video running in a PC.
MGSV Phantom Pain a.k.a. Project Ogre (PS4, 720) video running in-game pre-alpha stuff.
Since when did big boss lose an arm?
Is that mentioned anywhere before?

As I remember Kojima said that GZ was a prequel to MGS5. And Phantom Pain is MGS5.What I like to know is if this is MGS5 aka Ground Zeroes or MGS5 the continuity of MGS4 featuring Solid.
Probably the former since the trailer and the images showing similarities to Big Boss point to it.

Dude is essentially an entire Snatcher by the end of MGS4. Starts wearing a long coat and black leather gloves in his villain stage:
Man I've played every mainline entry up to and including 4. He has some fuckin wierd stem cell shit going on so he can come back to life to deliver a message and then fucking die again, but I don't remember any of this missing arm shit at all. Is this some PSP exclusive nonsense?
No way is this MGS 5, it goes against Kojima's tradition of releasing direct sequels on next-gen.

Volgin, The Sorrow, all these people are dead. What you're seeing are the delusions of Big Boss as he loses his mind and turns into the megalomaniac villain the series then portrays him as. The missing piece is the madness.
I'm not even remotely convinced this is MGS5 after all of those HL3 threads I've seen in my years, but I don't get your reasoning here. MGS3 came out on the same console as MGS2, and even if that wasn't an outlier, I seriously doubt Kojima has a stupid rule like "I am only allowed to release mainline games on a next gen console" rather than just deciding what platform each entry will be on as the development constraints dictate.
By direct sequels I think he means storywise. So MGS3 might be numbered after 2, but the plot doesn't progress from 2.

If I don't mistake his appeareances in the chronology is MGS3-PW-GZ-Phantom Pain-MGS4. And wear globes in MGS4 so he maybe there has a modern hand-shaped prosthesis
...seriously?
Neither does this, it's Big Boss ffs.
I'm not a fan of Big Boss's character, but I could absolutely get behind a game that chronicles his descent into madness.
No matter what light the other games try to put on him, he has always been and will always be a villain in my mind.
Seriously?
This thread...
Why would Kojima announce another MGS when hes making GZ? PP is GZ.
So I take it, Ground Zeroes and this are the same game. And it seems the true name of this game is Metal Gear Solid 5. Well if this is true then that is a disappointment. So this ain't a new game announcement just Ground Zeroes again. So all we got new from VGA's this year is Dark Soul's 2.
I said DIRECT SEQUEL. As in a story continuation, not a prequel.
No, this arm thing is new.
He wanted to work with western devs, so maybe it's partially outsourced.Why would Kojima announce another MGS when hes making GZ? PP is GZ.

It simply doesn't take without another huge retcon. I am going to go out on a limb (HA!) and say that the arm thing is part of his hallucination. It is unclear where in BB's life this would take place anyway, as Peace Walker takes place after the coma and he definitely has his arm in that game.
I said DIRECT SEQUEL. As in a story continuation, not a prequel. People sure don't like to read these days.
I'm not very interested in Big Boss either, but only because he and other MGS3 characters have been FUBAR'd in the PSP games. I wish those games didn't exist. And MGS4 too, for that matter.

I think Phantom Pain is a sequel to Ground Zeroes, which if I don't mistake it's placed before MG2. So it may fit.Big Boss is a cyborg by Metal Gear 2, remember. We've already seen one dude have a cruddy robot hand in Peace Walker, so pretty good chance Big Boss's Outer Heaven squad of techies and soldiers could build something better when theyve got a fucking Metal Gear on the go and all other sorts of crazy "out of the time period" tech. Look at that holo-map in the Ground Zeroes, I don't think a robot hand is gonna be much of a challenge!!
These are all sequels after Peace Walker. Ground Zeroes is a direct sequel infact, with MGSV set probably(definitely really) after Ground Zeroes.
...this is a Big Boss game.
Kojima said that Ground Zeroes isn't MGS5, and Phantom Pain is MGS5.
So Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain aren't the same game.
MGS 5 is supposed to be the sequel to Ground Zeroes, which is what this trailer is for.
did people see the image in the first post? That proves its MGS5.
