I don't usually get into Early Access games or Alpha and Beta state things, I buy em if they look really good and kinda check on them every month or so until they're done enough to play and enjoy. I found a game last Friday and I can't stop playing. It's in Alpha 0.11 and good god drat. Stonehearth is like the Dwarf Fortress I've always wanted. Voxel graphics, full 3D, good camera control, easy UI. The errors I get (it IS in Alpha) are easily worked around and I only crashed the game out once trying something stupid just to see if it worked. Anyway, the little thing is this and maybe its more common then I think but: The CEO of the company (it's 6 people now, up from 2 when the kickstarter exploded) does live streams 3 times a week of WORKING ON THE GAME. Last night I watched my first and I got to see him make and color and try out all kinds of new objects and recipes. He answered questions, he made jokes, he generated excitement without trying to sell us on it. It's the first game I've ever had that made me look forward to what's coming next since Minecraft was updating frequently. I didn't realize how much I missed having something fun to look forward to.

Between things like being able to paint your combat helicopter gold and have it blare 80s songs or paint it and your base pink and fulton everything that's not scenery, I don't like saying it but Saints Row had better step up its game if they're doing another one.

MGSV might become the first game I've paid full price for in well over a year.

I've never been a big metal gear fan but wound up getting the game as an early birthday gift(bless my parents for having little knowledge of games and just asking the clerk what's good) and I can safely say I was very surprised at how it is, I expected more crap like MGS4 but nope, its entirely different and real loving good, the freedom I have is ridiculous and I am going to lose hours upon hours on managing mother base among other things, I even bought the guide for it, my first guide purchase in years cause of the sheer scope of it and drat there's so much poo poo to find and discover.

In MGSV they made sure to let you know that you aren't just leaving D-Horse out there whenever you leave the mission area. If the camera is pointed at him when the helicopter flies away you can see a Fulton balloon go off and he takes off into the sky.

I was very worried about the companions but apparently if they "die" they simply get extracted and can't be used for a period till they heal makes me WAY calmer about using D-dog.

It's like a post-apocalyptic Sleeping Dogs; lots of car combat, Batman-esque fighting, and collecting stuff-- so much collecting. If you like crashing cars, punching guys, pretty graphics, and collecting/destroying stuff until you clear "100%" of an area (think Just Cause 2), then give it a shot. A little thing I've really enjoyed is the minor details that come with car customization. When you upgrade your engine, it has a different air filter, and noticeably sounds different.

I thought it was a nice touch until the guys left standing all yelled, "WITNESS!" in response... execept for the one guy that shouted, "My Warbuddy!" in the most hurt sounding tone. But seriously it's a fun not-quite Just Cause 2/Far Cry/Arkham game.

D-Horse is one tough motherfucker. Dude got shot by tanks at least three times, collapsed, and got up and kept sprinting every single time. A true soldier. Another MGSV thing: You got D-Dog, a dog buddy who scouts and marks out enemies and animals and stuff for you. Marking an enemy is accompanied by a soft, cartoony "pop".

Those custom music vids from MGSV are great, I had a fantastic experience that I sadly didn't record. A prisoner extraction went sideways halfway through, so I popped smoke and legged it for a jeep. Helicopter came in blaring AC/DCs "Thunderstruck", mowed down a bunch of guys, then as if on a scripted cue, spun around to face a small group of soldiers firing on it from behind cover as the lyrics went "You've been..." There is a pause in the music... Thunderstruck!" And the chopper fires a salvo of missiles at the group, obliterating them as the music goes nuts. To top it off, my hectic getaway driving was assisted by the chopper following and blasting evreything the whole time, and through sheer providence, I finished the mission, boarded the helicopter and Big Boss closed the door and finished the mission just as the track was finishing the last note. It could not have been scripted better. This loving game.

I spent a good amount of time deciding between pc and ps4 for mgs5. I chose ps4 because I wanted to use my big TV and surround sound, but had I known about the custom soundtrack stuff I would have chosen pc instantly. I am genuinely bummed

Here's my Metal Gear story. I had just finished my mission in an enemy base, and had been spotted so I needed to get away. I grabbed a jeep I had spotted earlier and drove out with a few enemies in pursuit. It started raining and I thought "great, this will help cover my escape", but then I started losing control of the vehicle on the wet dirt road. I went up on two wheels, skidded over to the side an hit a utility pole. It got knocked over, and then the powerlines fell onto me an electrecuted me. I was surprised the game bothered simulating any of those things. Someone needs to do an assassination mission by dropping power lines on the target.

You can equip up to four arms in MGSV. Two primary arms (stuff like rifles, shotguns, and rocket launchers) and two secondary arms, one of which is handguns or SMGs. The other secondary arm is your bionic roboarm. Your default bionic roboarm has this attack wherein if you're sprinting and hit the attack button, you'll do a running punch attack which instantly floors any type of soldier or animal. Said punch is accompanied by the Six Million Dollar Man sound effect, you know the one.

It'll also make that sound when you use the Sonar. Incidentally, one of the equippable Bionic Arms is a literal Rocket Punch. You aim, fire, and then guide it remotely into someone's face to stun them .

I'm not sure, but I think guards in Phantom Pain notice if you take the cassette tape their radios are playing. I haven't seen anything directly call attention to it yet, but I have seen guards gravitate to where the music was coming from.
