I was about to call this a prank of a game but from reading the article it might seem like there's some actual substance to it, no doubt the story's gonna be dire from what we've seen so far but at least it ain't full price. We'll see though, we always do.
As sad as this situation is, a zombie game with TPP's gunplay seems pretty fun.
At least it won't be a full priced game (or so they claim). I hope the trailer was just a bad trailer that misrepresented the game.
I don't care if this game is good, or even great. You'd have to be terrible to support Konami's practices.
I kinda want to try it out as long as the price is fair enough.

This is stupid. Don't punish the team stuck with this project because a celebrity got fired.

Wasn't most of the Kojipro team also gone after TPP though?

So you're gonna waste your cash on something bad just because someone who isn't at fault was behind its development process?
By that logic, you have to buy all the cash grab games, just because someone in its development might actually have worked hard on it.
The only way to buy this game is at sub $20. Not just because this is barely a MG game, but because Konami doesn't deserves a single cent for whatever they pull next for the franchise, seeing how they're hellbent in making it a cash cow with the least effort possible.

But he was saying that even if it's good you shouldn't buy it. Which is fucking retarded.

It isn't gonna be good.
Maybe technicaly, like, it will run well and all of that, but other than that, I'm dead sure it isn't gonna be good, and its just gonna be a Metal Gear themed survival game, of which there is no lack of nowadays.
Actually, he's more right than you think.
You shouldn't buy a game like this just because its good, and not buying it despite being good, is even better.
That way, Konami can lay the franchise to rest, and not blame the people who made the game. If the game is bad, Konami would probably point fingers at the devs. If its good, the devs aren't to blame, unless Konami just throws food into the pen and go "do whatever you want, we'll get back with you in a few months" and not give a look at what could and could not work.
Think of it as a statement. A boycott. Yes I know these don't work, but one thing is buying a super hyped game like MW2 that is what its supposed to be, and another is buying something like Metal Gear Survive, a plain cash grab.
Oh hey look, its BeardyDucky on the unboxathon, yet again!

please point me to these other metal gear theme games.
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;50909959]please point me to these other [b]survival[/b] theme games.[/QUOTE]
Is what you meant to say.
also you sitting on your high horse telling other people to not buy or play a game because you personally disagree and think it's "bad" even though the only thing that's released is a trailer using cutscenes is pathetic

"Metal Gear Survive"
It doesn't takes a genius to figure out from that name, from the trailer AND from the cesspool of husks created from the games Konami has made over the years of bad decisions that this game will be low effort garbage with the survival genre of games, bearing the Metal Gear name, theme and backstory just to reel in people easier.
Not only that, whatever original content Konami comes up bearing the Metal Gear name, is most likely not even gonna be close to whatever Kojima made in the past, and thats without mentioning the fact that the game has pretty much all the important holes filled, and whatever you come up with next, is stuff like Reveangeance, that is just a spin off.
And do I REALLY have to explain it to you? No really, do I?
I mean, goddamn, there are CLEARLY so many Metal Gear themed survival games out there right? Surely I wasn't refering to the abundance of games in the survival genre, and was really, REALLY stricly mentioning survival games with a Metal Gear Solid theme, right? It has to be that, it can't be anything else really!...
man i dont even care if this game turns out to be good, not giving any of my money to a game anytime soon that has konamis name attached to it, really hoping it bombs

do i really need to tell you to step back and look at your own posts and how you're getting this heated and overreactionary about a video game you're not going to be buying anyways?
[QUOTE=iamgoofball;50909387]This is stupid. Don't punish the team stuck with this project because a celebrity got fired.[/QUOTE]
Konami's bullshit extends much longer besides kojima's firing. That was just the icing on the cake.

Who are you? The selective post police? You're literaly the only person acting like that. Not even the people with a positive mindset about this game are acting like you.
NOW I remember!... You're the guy who got banned for going "superior knowledge" and flaming people who told you a BKB would be better than a Linkens in a certain situation, in Dota 2. I see the attitude still remains...
[highlight](User was banned for this post ("Shit Posting" - UncleJimmema))[/highlight]
I want to chime in that Roca has a bit of a point, theres no reason to have any faith in this considering Konamis done this same routine like 4 times now and each time it was either fucking astonishingly, legendarily fucking awful (Bomberman: Act Zero), or just insulting and awful (the Silent Hill franchise).
They have a proven track record of fucking everything up when they kick out the people who actually make the good shit good.

"Celebrity"
When Kojima let his team attempt a project with any real substance without his involvement it turned into a flaming train wreck that he had to send to Platinum Games to salvage.
[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;50910558][url=https://youtu.be/ul8j9I90ueM?t=86]Metal Gear Survivor is canon though[/url][/QUOTE]
There is there a reason it can't be. It's set in an alternate universe and starts with portals, which are already a feature in TPP
I honestly have no idea how you could be excited about a 4 player zombie co-op shooter in this day and age
look at Umbrella Corps, Operation Raccoon City, this'll end up like that, but because of the mess about konami it's going to become some giant battleground
Were the wormholes ever used in MGS V's story or cutscenes? People are like "there's wormhole items, it's canon!!1!."
I didn't get to far in the ps3 version
No, there's a lot of stuff in the MGS games Thats in gameplay that doesn't seem Canon
Itd be like saying the monster Hunter missions from peace walker are canon, or the boktai gun from MGS4 is
