[QUOTE=bdd458;48011595]I'm curious as what's meant by "V has come to" at the end of the trailer.[/QUOTE]
I think it has something to do with Big Boss awakening from his coma as a different man. Like when people say "has he come to yet?" when referring to someone regaining consciousness.
[QUOTE=thisguy123;48011548]Back to the subject of the MGR:R soundtrack, yes collective conciousness is the weakest of all the tracks.. but it is just stage one of the final boos fight where you dick about with gimmicks until the real showdown begins [sp]and grab the largest metal gear in series to date and Judo throw the damn thing[/sp]
and secondly there is a FAR superior version available

You know how they say enemies will adapt to your tactics: more armor, helmets?
I can't wait to see them wearing a chain and a ball so you can't fulton them.

Not saying it's bad, but personally I rank it under most of the others.
But the Kazoo soundtrack is never not funny.

What if they fulton themselves? How can Snake fulton something that isn't there???
[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;48011895]What if they fulton themselves? How can Snake fulton something that isn't there???[/QUOTE]
so THAT'S what they meant by "Those Who Don't Exist"

They Fulton Snake back, resulting in you being flung halfway cross the map.

"Dear lord! Phantom hell cyborgs with supernatural superhuman alien powers don't work! What are we gonna throw at him next?!"
"Deploy all the Metal Gears!"
oh wait, that happened in MGS2...

I like how raiden was able to beat like nine RAY's while fighting three at once
and he wasn't even a cyborg back then yet
I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times, Ray is the biggest bitch machine ever created
It was designed for the sole purpose of beating Metal Gears, and in the one time in the series we see two metal Gears fight, it gets it's fucking ass handed to it by a crippled one that's been out of commission for 10 years
not to mention Raiden is able to dispose of 25 of them without so much as a sweat while Snake barely made it through with his life taking down ONE rex, and he didn't even finish the job, just put it to sleep

It was built to take down the crappy REX mass production models not the real thing. Also symbolism because REX should be beaten by RAY just as solid should be weaker than liquid due to genes but solid wins the fight at the end of MGS1.
except that whole thing about genes is total bullshit anyway so
...spoilers?
Also raiden is grroriuos nippon ninja cyborg and the protag of a platinum game. Of course he is going to wreck the shit out of everything.
Despite its realistic overtones, the Metal Gear universe is batshit insane.

I would argue that "the protagonist wins in spite of the odds" is hardly spoilers.
Imagine a special cqc move that straps a fulton to enemies mid-combat.
Or hell, sneak up on a guard and attach one on him without him noticing.

To be fair the one hit slamdown knockout can be combo'd into a fulton very quickly... But the idea of some soldier suddenly being yanked into the air is funnym
To be fair, the mass produced RAYs were all pieces of shit.
I mean, they had a billion weak spots, rather crappy AI (for the sake of the game?), awkward gun placements (who the hell positions main armaments in apendages that take a shitload of space and time to move around, instead of having them fixed to an easily maneuverable point or to a fixed part that is pretty much in position with aiming, like REX?) and it was much weaker all around.
Another thing I find stupid is the hydro jet cannon, that replaced the laser gun. RAY is supposed to be a MG killer right? Aka, its supposed to be a REX killer. A crew would most likely not carry around a REX platform near a place with a water supply, unless they were using it next to a harbour or a place where you could maneuvre a huge clumsy mech to fill its deposits with water and therefor, use its hydro cannon.
But tbh, Raiden did have a big sweat. When he killed the 25th RAY, he kind of gave up from exhaustion and loss of hope. Still amazing though.
REX isn't with its flaws, which Otacon himself had the intention of doing.
It's radar system is, to put it simply, bloated and outdated. I'm pretty sure there could have been something better to use as a radar other than a huge metalic dish saying "shoot me". I'll give it credit though, it took a few STINGER missiles and a shot from Gray Fox's super duper ray gun to take out.
Which takes us to the next flaw.
Shoot out the radar. What happens?
The cockpit opens. The operator is COMPLETELY EXPOSED to anything. On top of that, iirc, he has to rely on the operator's view, so basically, no target finding abilities if no radar?
Good luck if you enter a place with snipers. Hell, even a stray bullet that someone shot at the operator in a "die already you motherfucker!" situation could kill, since the cockpit is WIDE OPEN.
That's just so bad lol.

MGS4 came out in 2008 man, assume we've all played it. And if you're really worried about spoilers don't hang around a Metal Gear thread.

new people are always coming in, this isn't some elitist club exclusively for people who've finished the games.
I'm putting RAY losing to REX as RAY having a shitty pilot. I'm pretty sure an AI RAY could still beat a piloted REX just by closing the distance quickly and getting in its face. I'm not even sure REX's free electron laser could do much against RAY

Dude, people still spoiler tag 2001: A Space Odyssey.
[editline]20th June 2015[/editline]
I'm in this thread for new info on MGS5, the least you do is type a few extra characters so I don't have to get the games that [I]I plan on playing[/I] spoiled for me.
Typing out [noparse][sp][/sp][/noparse] shouldn't take up any time and isn't hard.
Granted, I've forgotten to do it a few times because this thread used to be the same dudes for a few years and we had all played the series several times. We're getting a few more new people in though due to MGSV, so we might as well get spoiler tagging.

Or you can develop a cannon that fires the at guards, so you can just walk around firing fultons at anything that moves.

I haven't seen it yet.
But I don't feel like doing so though...
fair enough you know. I'll be vigilant for the newfriends

REX is awesome, it wins on that fact alone.

It should have its own game.
miracleofsound's song for Titanfall would be better for REX, because REX is cooler than Titfall's mechs
