villa4europe Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 done some great missions recently, 20 took me ages to get what i was meant to do, the one with the skulls and the 2 armoured vehicles, **** me! i died on the mission where they invade your base (i fell off a **** pipe!) do you get to re-do it? the checkpoints are doing my head in and im not sure if the ability to fulton enemies out rather than hiding the bodies makes it easier than it could be but other than that im loving it, being able to customise your weapons makes a huge difference, tranquiliser sniper rifle with a suppressor, smash everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Just finally got the true ending.This game... GOTY. So good.I was just about to post more or less exactly the same thing.I take it this Kojima/Konami split has buffered up hopes of another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted October 11, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 11, 2015 Konami own the property so the split means Kojima won't be making another gave any time soon, but interestingly it's unlikely Konami will either - they're in essence out of the game industry, instead focusing on their other markets, notably pachinko machines. Which they've already earmarked for a Metal Gear iteration. So there's that...But yeah in essence this is it for Metal Gear. At least it goes out on a helluva high note, and nicely builds on, develops and to an extent troubleshoots the whole series and it's storyline.Brilliant, just absolutely brilliant.

I take it this Kojima/Konami split has buffered up hopes of another?Konami have all but pulled out of the AAA videogame industry at this point as far as I can tell, PES is the only console game they are going to publish for the foreseeable future. Kojima will get a job somewhere else, whether that somewhere else gives him five years and £50m to make a new game of this scale remains to be seen, probably not but I'll still be interested in seeing what he does next. The thing is this game, brilliant as it is (I'm 55+ hours in, still only 33% complete) isn't really a Metal Gear Solid game is it? I know all previous Metal Gear Solid games have been somewhat different from each other but this is such a radical departure from the formula that they could have slapped a completely different branding onto the mechanics of the game and it would probably have been almost as much fun.

Chindie Posted October 11, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 11, 2015 I don't know... It's a sequel to Peace Walker really, but more elaborate. It's still a Metal Gear game in my view, it just hides a lot of the token Metal Gear madness and it's main plot is curiously downplayed compared to how they usually are in these games.

Dr_Pangloss Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 It's one of the best games I've ever played, but I'd still rank it behind MGS 1,2 & 3, perhaps that's because the story in those 3 was a lot more compelling IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted October 12, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 12, 2015 There are a lot of hidden bits in it. Particularly hidden cutscenes. I managed to have a slightly creepy weird scene with Quiet on a return to the base which a lot of people seem to mud, I've had the birthday scene with its additional ending, etc etc, and I'm sure there's others I've missed.It also goes increasingly mad if you delve deeper into the development trees - there's some absolutely daft stuff in there, in some cases so daft they become very useful...
