Metal Gear Solid - Tactical Megathread Action VIII - We Are Diamond Dogs! - Games

I dig that MB wall so much. Look at how clear it looks... It's soo sexy.

[QUOTE=thrawn2787;47766755]So Yong was right about the FOBs then[/QUOTE] He's almost always right.

Huh, that's a way to make sure everything isn't screwed over when you get attacked. Neat

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;47766950]So it seems Motherbase and the continuation of PW's Outer Ops are still treated as tacked on gimmicks then. The common pool of soldiers you can hunt for and recruit are even worse off than they were in Peace Walker or Portable Ops in a sense because you can't even use them for anything at all outside of raising numbers on menu screens this time around. Goddamn it. The whole multiplayer FOB is still pretty neat at least. Kind of.[/QUOTE] We haven't seen enough footage of how this works, but what they have reinforced is that everything you Fulton recover will appear physically at your motherbase. The FOB will (apparently) be fully customizable but there are no details on how that will work either. (I assume it will all be done through the iDroid.) Personally, I'm very excited to infiltrate other players bases, sounds extremely fun to me. I imagine that once your motherbase is full, your FOB will be the place to keep your extra crap.

the idroid minigame on the iphone does something that i can imagine happening to TPP: you can't recruit more soldiers, unless you have more platforms, so i'd imagine that at one point, you can't have more equipment on one platform until you build the next one, forcing the player to continue expanding MB

Is there any confirmation that if we unlock people in GZ, we can use them in V?

Kind of.[/QUOTE] you can interact with soldiers directly at mother base. we've been told that when training, if you train with them, they train better. also, other than traps, cameras and other tech, how do you think you're supposed to guard your FOB and Motherbase? Just sheep? Outer Ops are also super useful for getting materials and design specs in Peace Walker. plus we don't know everything yet.

Apparently TPP is given the R 18+ rating in Australia. [url]http://www.metalgearinformer.com/?p=19499[/url]

Snake and Kaz sex scene confirmed.

I don't know what is happening but more and more I actually want Big Boss to have a gay relationship. The tough choice is should it be with Kaz or Ocelot.

I don't really see how Big Boss being straight or gay would add to the game or series. A mass effect scene like that would be bizarre. It'd be fine if it was a silly side thing like in PW.

I mean, it would make more sense for Snake to be with Kaz. Ocelot ends up being crazy obsessed with Big Boss later in the series, it could be because he was in love with him, and was rejected. He was the one that got away.

Does the Day 1 DLC come with all the cardboard box stuff that the collector's edition gets? Or am I shit outta luck in the box department

[QUOTE=tempunary;47774019][URL="http://imgur.com/a/Jb7IG#0"]Now look at this[/URL][/QUOTE] OK, now that's a fucking spoiler. I know the trailer was pretty blatant but that's unquestionable. I wish I hadn't clicked that.

[QUOTE=mastermaul;47777461]OK, now that's a fucking spoiler. I know the trailer was pretty blatant but that's unquestionable. I wish I hadn't clicked that.[/QUOTE] We've theorized it since the initial trailers and the original viewings of the figure, and it was never really subtle to begin with, but that pretty much proves the whole [sp]Volgin's ghost[/sp] thing. In particularly potential spoiler discussion, [sp]"Those Who Don't Exist", the ghost of Volgin and potentially others, and one of those who tweeted impressions saying 'remember a certain psychic, this game's about to screw with you just as hard' or something like that, it's pretty evident someone's going to try and use Big Boss' past transgressions against him very aggressively at the least.[/sp]

So are we gonna get a future MGS game where Volgin uses ice themed powers. Just to complete the triangle. oh wait no more kojimbles rip in pieces

What if we end up encountering [sp]different Volgin Elementals as a Skull Unit? And you didnt have any weapons? You'd have to bring the power of the God Hand or some Kenshiro shit right there.[/sp]

[QUOTE=mastermaul;47777461]OK, now that's a fucking spoiler. I know the trailer was pretty blatant but that's unquestionable. I wish I hadn't clicked that.[/QUOTE] That figure was shown off a year or two ago. It isn't anything new. Also that character, what ever it is, is in the first freaking trailer. 2:33 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03nUMw7japI[/media]
