[QUOTE=AaronM202;47006046]Im finding it hard to agree and disagree.
This series has so many good god damn boss fights.[/QUOTE]
It really does. I think the fight with The Boss may win because of just what an impact she had as a figurehead in the MGS story, and for the love of all them feels.
[I]It was the best 10 minutes of my life[/I]
Little thing I discovered in GZ but it's probably known. [sp]After you safe Paz you can hear two guards talking about incoming doctor or something to check her (if you didn't knock them out). If you stay there just for a moment 2 guys come down and if you neutralize them the base never finds out Paz is gone.[/sp]

[sp]are these two soldiers that come from ladders with railings?[/sp]

[sp]There are two entry points to Paz, right? One is straight staircase, the other is some kind of generator room with stairs at the end. They come down through the generator room. I also always knocked out the two talking guards. And lastly, but I think that isn't needed, I turned the power in admin building off.[/sp]

For a very similar reason my favorite boss fight is Ocelot at the end of 4.

[sp]Yeah the generators, I always waited for these guys to pass and didn't knock them down, guess that's why they always found out about Paz. I should try to beat them next time I would play.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;47004366]Beat MGS3 the only true way to fight the boss CQC.[/QUOTE]I was pretty fond of the Patriot vs. LMG jousting I did with the Boss, gunning at each other until one of us flinched and took damage. None of that sissy grabbing and kicking!
Was fucking around a lot in GZ's main mission thing, and when I finally got around to actually completing it (after nearly an hour), it turned out I had unintentionally S-ranked the damn thing.

Whelp! First S-rank on accident.

It's hard not to S-rank it if you just rescue prisoners.
[QUOTE=elowin;47006808]It's hard not to S-rank it if you just rescue prisoners.[/QUOTE]
Pretty much this, if you rescue all prisoners (which is fairly easy) and manage to get no kills and alerts (Ground Zeroes missions is pretty easy on normal) you can almost take as much time as you want.

You don't even have to get no kills or alerts.
I got S-rank on my first try, even though i got like 3 alerts and killed all who got in my way when escaping with Paz.

This has been known, but the time won't pass in the maps only options to have different variations of the map
So I've got a friend who's playing MGS1 for the first time in many years. His adventures so far.
1: Was posting on Facebook while Kenneth Baker was talking, so then couldn't figure out how to find Meryl. "Hey, I'm not skipping the cutscenes at least!"
2. "Dude, Japanese people are really stuck on nuclear bombs aren't they? We get it. It sucked... Move on guys."
3:"I ain't looking on the back of the cd case for a damn codex frequency. the Cd case is all the way across the room. Googling that shit and saving the list of codes. Ain't got time to memorize things."
4:"I just shot Meryl in the back of the head. I guess I should have paid more attention."+"I just walked into that big room and saw two guards, my first reaction was to kill them."+"I went to the right area. I wanted to see if there were any new doors to open with my new card to get loot before going to the women's bathroom."
5:"Torture scene was over the split second it began. I ain't got time for mashing O. I don't know what would have happened but I was at full life and rations and I didn't want to start things low on hp or had to use rations after getting shocked a lot."
He's having fun at least.

this is DSP tiers of stupidity
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;47007732]this is DSP tiers of stupidity[/QUOTE]
nah
Is there any possibility that we'll get to ride camels? Considering there's sandstorms and whatnot it makes sense for there to be one snake can mount 'Lawrence of Arabia-style'. Also Diamond Dromedary rolls of the tongue better than the generic sounding Diamond Horse.
I think horses are more common in Afghanistan.
Well, a wolf in an African jungle isn't exactly a common sight either but whatever. Just thought it was possible since Kojima loves movies and this game seems to take huge inspiration from Lawrence of Arabia with private armies and all that jazz.
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;47007732]this is DSP tiers of stupidity[/QUOTE]
More like a bit of laziness mixed with being a bit too trigger-happy or rushing in terms of things like the torture scene. DSP would be far worse.

Not sure if it's particularly new, or even accurate... but I came across a release date for MGS5 at a local game shop that I've not seen on any site, "leak", or anything else. 05/15/15. Seems like horrific timing for a release, though. Filler date, possibly?

Don't trust anything unless it comes from Konami themselves, and even then don't expect it that day

I thought it was somewhat evident that in TPP you're going to be playing generally in an anti-hero role?
I'm already an anti-hero
Well, my buddy has made it to the jeep chase without committing any other war crimes, but did go on for a while about how Miller was his favorite character... until the end....

He does Snake voices a lot.

I think he's implying that we will be literally playing as skull face.
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;47004366]Beat MGS3 the only true way to fight the boss CQC.[/QUOTE]
I think my first time through, I ran up to her and spammed cig spray. Every subsequent time, I just equipped white camo and kept my distance. I am definitely not the rightful heir to the title of Boss.
My girlfriend CQC'd her, though, at least for part of the fight. Until that moment, I didn't even know you could just punch her in the face instead of hiding halfway across the map and taking little, calculated shots from behind a log. :v:
