The whole 'open-world' thing with MGSV has always been misleading, imo.

It was clear that the game's story is mission-based first-and-foremost, with the open-world thing secondary as more of a game level component, rather than a narrative driver.

Exactly why I'm so hyped. MGSV has the perfect "open world" approach. The game gives you so many options and you can be so creative in completing your objective. When you look at other open world games, you have one gigantic map where you can get lost in, but when you do the missions they are always very linear and you can only finish the mission in 1 way. MGSV really gives you freedom when it comes to the missions.

This game is going to be incredible.

Is this from the event ? Probably not.

Anybody know why Twitter images don't show up for me on here? Google Chrome user.

you can take a shower at motherbase...

Too bad we'll never get to see the bromance bathroom brawl again... ;_;

 

[bud]

are any of sasaki's relatives in the game

 

[dancrane212]

I may be able to answer some questions later, so feel free to ask non-story-related ones.

Are kills tracked on a mission-by-mission basis? I may be remembering wrong but in Peace Walker the game was much more forgiving about kills where you could just replay the mission again later to get an S rank rather than go back to an earlier save like the previous games.

It begins.

Guys, please. If you see a scene which possibly could be from the final hour of the game, for the love of god, don't post it.

 

[Lifejumper]

Wonder if Kojima made a appearance.

 

[Alienous]

Is this from the event ? Probably not.

Yuck.

 

[Slowdive]

Is this from the event ? Probably not.

It is.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

NO WAY. THATS MY BIRTHDAY

Thank you based Kojima

 

[wanders]

Is there more than 2 areas, Afghanistan and Africa?

How "open" is the game? Did you run into any invisible walls?

 

[Erban1]

what do they say?

Can anyone get some screenshots from this guy? I'm on my phone.

[KarasuEXE]

Each mission has their own credits screen with stuff like "Starring Snake" and "Written by Hideo Kojima".

It's fun.

Not "Written by Konami"?

have you seen the horse trailer? that was the afghanistan section- game 'gun be big

 

[Kazuhira]

I have so many conflicting emotions right now,keep looking or unplug the network cable before i get spoiled.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

So in terms of scope if you want to do at least 90% of the game its not a 10 hour game then?

It seems more like a 30 hour game maybe 20 for story only?

 

[Pankratous]

Forget Phantom Pain, are you able to play the re-iteration of the worlds greatest multiplayer experience? If so, how is it?

 

[Woffls]

Oh man, everything about this game sounds perfect. It'll be strange having an unpredictable experience in Metal Gear, but it seems like the mechanics will be able to deal with it quite handily. Weather systems will be amazing.

 

[muzzymate]

Is such a long period between play times and preview publications normal for the business?

Kojima said it could take hundreds of hours to do everything in the game.

 

[Ricky_R]

I'll repeat my subtitle suggestion for the OT.

Metal gear Solid V |OT| The Fulton Pain

 

[Mr. Sunny]

I feel like this game is going to get delayed....then again since Kojima;s contract is up in December they might just get it done on time.

 

[nullref]

Wait, what's the thing on the left?

Astro MixAmp

 

[Alienous]

Have you met any black and/or female characters with a speaking role?

 

[ezekial45]

The mission to find the weapon takes you through massive military installations tucked away in the desert. The scale of them is daunting.

This is exactly what I wanted to see in MGSV. I want to explore Groznyj Grad-esque locations scattered around the map.

 

[Mr. RHC]

+1

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Much appreciated, thanks!

 

[secretanchitman]

It uses the same engine as Ground Zeroes. Unless they messed something up along the way it should still be that.

Thanks man! Just wanted a confirmation

 

[Vally]

Is there co-op like in Peace Walker?

 

[Nightengale]

So in terms of scope if you want to do at least 90% of the game its not a 10 hour game then?

AHAHAHAHAHA.

Peace Walker is over 80 hours if you want to do 90-100% of the game.
On the PSP.

TPP is probably going to be 30 hours minimum at a casual pace, only for story.

 

[Jimmydg]

Brazil, If you had to compare what you've played so far with Ground Zeroes. How would you say it is? As good as the prologue?
What about the balance gameplay and story?
Do you keep pace so absorbing like in Ground Zeroes?
Without going into details and without committing to anything

 

[AKyemeni]

Forget Phantom Pain, are you able to play the re-iteration of the worlds greatest multiplayer experience? If so, how is it?

This is my stance as well lol

 

[Alienous]

What's the length of the longest cutscene you saw and why was it 2 hours long?

 

[wanders]

have you seen the horse trailer? that was the afghanistan section- game 'gun be big

Yeah in just wondering if you can climb those mountains in the background from that trailer lol

 

[KorrZ]

Really happy to see new stuff from TPP coming out. It just reassures me that everything is all well and good with the game.

Not going to be reading any of it though - this is the only chance I have at a pure MGS experience since I just played the series this year, and of course a lot was spoiled by osmosis.

I think I prefer this.

 

[josecitoxnyo]

WAT

 

[Rajang]

Just to be clear: I will read through all of this later and answer questions. Right now I'll try to brave my way through as much content as I can in my limited time, haha.

Have you encountered any boss fights? Are they traditional Metal Gear boss fights or are they vehicle and A.I battles like in Peace Walker? And please don't spoil the bosses.

Can you bring vehicles you've capture to the missions?

Can you create your own Metal Gear and customize it like in PW?

In what ways can you interact with DD?

Have you found any weapons and items specs?

How is the moter base management of your staff compared to PW?

 

[Sn4ke_911]

WAT

MANTIS

He's probably talking about the ones we saw in the E3 2013 trailer.

 

[GavinUK86]

 

[NoFoX]

This is my stance as well lol

Guys, get a CFW PS3 and play MGO2 again with us!
I don't think MGO3 will be as godlike as MGO2 :/

 

[Choomp]

WAT

oh mannnn idk if I want to keep finding out stuff guyzzz

 

[Black Pewter]

Innnnn. June 6th can't come soon enough, although I'm dreading reading all the practically identical previews from all these sites.

 

[Boke1879]

WAT

WHAT?!

 

[BreezyLimbo]

why is kojimas head randomly in the middle

its not even attached to a body
