Metal Gear Solid - VIIII - A Hideo Kojima Thread - PLAY THEM ALL IN RELEASE ORDER - Games

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;48052409]Even though it really isn't I'm still always gonna look at the Twin Snakes as Raiden's Shadow Moses. That's just me though.[/QUOTE] Holy shit that would make WAY too much sense. Like, if you gave Raiden agency inside a simulation of fucking course he's gonna act like a typical speedrunner or 2pro4u CSGO player, flipping his shit everywhere.

Is Pre-Ordering a PC Steam key of The Phantom Pain from G2A a good idea?

It's only 2 months from now on but it feels like forever :suicide: This actually remind me of a popular copy-pasta about MGS5 from Russian imageboards, here's the rough translation: You played Ground Zeroes Played the shit out of it for bazillion hours while waiting for MGS5 You fucking love it, you pray to your Kojima altar everyday Hype is reaching maximum levels In preparation you take vacation from your job, buy couple weeks worth of food and drinks, go totally under the radar Finally, release day and you get your copy, rip packaging with your teeth in anticipation With your trembling hands you put in that shiny disk in your console And prepare to be blown away by awesomeness... To your horror it's the fucking worst game you ever saw, EVERYTHING IS SO FUCKING BAD, GRAPHICS, CONTROLS, STORY EVERYTHING You can't believe it, you desperately think that this is some kind of joke, this can't be real But truth is unavoidable, MGS5 is fucking garbage and worst game in history of mankind You scream in rage and destroy everything in your sight, you crush your console, your games, everything Out of sheer rage, butthurt and this unbelievable insult you take vow NEVER TO PLAY VIDEOGAMES, EVER "HE BETRAYED US ALL!!!... HE BETRAYED MEEEEEEEEEE!! KOJIMAAAAAAA" Hideo Kojima's altar crumbles... Years go by... You succeed in life. You marry that beautiful girl you always liked, have bunch of kids, and own a successful business. One day, on one of your many business trips you go to Japan to make yet another successful deal Suddenly you see a familiar face in the crowd for a brief moment. You try to remember where you could've seen that weary, sad man in glasses. He gives you a sad smile and vanishes in the crowd. That's when it hits you. You drop your mobile phone in shock and just stay there, with tears forming in your eyes. Kojima never betrayed you. He saved you. He sacrificed everything to save you. Saved you so you could finally live your life, free of videogames that robbed you from your future and your success. In the industry he will forever be known as the ultimate failure and in the gaming community as the ultimate betrayer of all the gamers. But YOU know the truth. His ultimate sacrifice, his debriefing, will endure only in your heart.

[QUOTE=PieClock;48055379]No. Preordering from key sites, especially one as dodgy as that is a bad idea.[/QUOTE] G2A isn't really dodgy, but how exactly? TPP is steam-exclusive, where are they going to get keys from? Retail? There's no retail release for TPP on PCs

[QUOTE=Conro101;48049488][sp]But wouldn't you have to make your MP character first? And isn't this, like, the first scene in the game? Unless he shows up later, but still.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Russian mag said after the hospital scene you do extensive customization.

[QUOTE=Nexosz;48055427]G2A isn't really dodgy, but how exactly? TPP is steam-exclusive, where are they going to get keys from? Retail? There's no retail release for TPP on PCs[/QUOTE] It's not even that though, you have no idea if the keys will be hit with shit like region locks and so on. It's overall just a really bad idea to preorder keys, especially this far ahead of release.

[QUOTE=Nexosz;48055427]G2A isn't really dodgy, but how exactly? TPP is steam-exclusive, where are they going to get keys from? Retail? There's no retail release for TPP on PCs[/QUOTE] G2A is one of the dodgiest sites tho, use some other key site instead.

I'm really leaning towards getting a key from a keysite at some point because I sure as fuck am not co-operating with Konami considering they overprice the living fuck out of non-American regions for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

They're probs going to cancel all preorders when they find out it's a complete steam exclusive

[QUOTE=Starship;48055560]G2A is one of the dodgiest sites tho, use some other key site instead.[/QUOTE] Is GMG any better?

[QUOTE=XeroG;48055696]Is GMG any better?[/QUOTE] Much. They're probably the best one even though the prices might be high for some countries.

[QUOTE=DudeGuyKT;48053571]i can't wait for the phantom pain to find out if Nuke survived the end of gz[/QUOTE] It would be a real missed opportunity if an MSF survivor didn't save Nuke the kitten and turns up 9 years later with Nuke the cat.

So I listened to the new bombcast They played a 2 hour demo of PP and Big Boss didn't say one word at all Not really liking it

[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;48053942]Hopefully this will change your mind. [video=youtube;mXgaAbnu2_c]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXgaAbnu2_c[/video] Even at reduced graphics the 360 and PS3 run GZ at 20 FPS half the time. TPP will likely be more resource intensive than GZ, so they're probably gonna have to cut down on the graphics even more.[/QUOTE] Argh shutup I dont want to wait for tpp :suicide: But you are hella right Gz wasnt all that great on ps3 to begin with Like, not at all I guess tpp would blow up the console or just run like shit all the time while looking like shit

[QUOTE=uber.;48055903][sp]But what about female MGO characters?[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Think the customisation they where talking about only affects the base invasions and MGO3 will have a seperate thing all together, either what was mentioned before or presets. Either way, it wont matter too much because your face is going to be usually covered. I just hope they have a good selection of voices, i need to get back to spamming "I don't think so." and Peace Walker really doesnt cut it.[/sp]

That's what I think anyway.

[QUOTE=General;48055911]So I listened to the new bombcast They played a 2 hour demo of PP and Big Boss didn't say one word at all Not really liking it[/QUOTE] The PC doesn't talk during gameplay, there's always a cutscene interrupt or something along those lines and this game seems to distance itself from that. Considering every demo so far has been nothing but gameplay, this shouldn't be a shocking revelation. Not to mention, the codec system takes more after Peace Walker's so Big Boss shouldn't be talking outside of cutscenes really, so this problem isn't unique to Punished Kief.

If they do talk it's usually for specific cinematic segments, like Snake's refusal to fire the Stinger at REX, Raiden's "you must be Ames," or so forth. Yeah, Big Boss seems like a mute because the streamlined codec only has Kaz/Ocelot/etc. talking to him like Peace Walker, but they've stated most of his dialogue is in specific cutscenes and the tapes; it's just that cutscenes are far more infrequent now besides for specific plot missions and game segments and Kojima Productions [i]really[/i] doesn't want to spoil the plot. Besides, with the way the codec works now, having Big Boss holding conversations while infiltrating an enemy base would be pretty ridiculous.

I wonder if the model was edited in some way--could mean something feasible in the future for gun replacement mods if the Fox Engine editing tools are not released after TPP

i wonder if big boss will be able to wear a beret in mgsv. i want to recreate the mg2 sprite outfit. btw theyre looking for feature/support feedback on MGSV on Steam: [url]http://steamcommunity.com//app/287700/discussions/0/530645446312560975/[/url]

Also Draw Distance would be great as well, always hated how soldiers would pop in at around 50m or so. It's real nice they are reaching out to the people who play the game on PC to ask about what they should add and whatnot, makes me confident the game is gonna be spectacular (not that I needed any more convincing)

Sensitivity while zoomed and the dialog / weapon selection with KB+M was pretty weird. Hopefully they work it out for TPP.

[QUOTE=tempunary;48058907][video=youtube;apYsyTi2pFw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apYsyTi2pFw[/video][/QUOTE] Damn. I cant run it on my shitty microwave of a laptop but fuck me if i cant at least try and get the textures and make an MGS2 style sneaking suit just to go with this.

Bought MGS Snake Eater 3D, I think it was worth it. My lunch times have never been so sneaky.
