I thought the resolution to the Paz storyline was one of the more effective bits of story in the game. It really drives home the guilt and madness Snake feels about the whole thing.

In my game the medic was a black man with Mike Tyson's tattoo on his face. The man who walked into that imaginary room 11 times was Venom Snake. EDIT: I'm sorry. Punished "Venom" Snake. Dangerous Person fucked around with this message at 03:14 on Sep 17, 2015 |

In case you didn't see it, here's another MGS video by the same guy. Not really the same style, but still https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8iBBJE_MZ0 This one really highlights what a shame it was how quiet Snake was in V I started losing my poo poo at "Who's footprints are these?"

That's awesome. Imagine doing that in the very beginning, before you knew the twist. I almost did exactly that when I saw the scars, but I got tired of playing around with sliders and just said gently caress it and made some generic-looking dude so I could actually play the game.

I made my avatar relatively close to Big Boss, but luckily the doctors had been maintaining my camo facepaint for me for 9 years so it was still clear what was happening.

randombattle posted:Big Boss starts talking to you on 120.85 and then once he starts being an rear end in a top hat he's on 120.13. If I remember correctly, it's like halfway through the game where he tells you to change frequencies to 120.13, so you could retroactively read that as Snake getting too far and BB needing Venom to give bullshit advice.

I assumed the avatar was who i'd be playing the game as, made it as close to BB as I could, then forgot about it after the prologue. The ending was confusing for like 10 seconda.

He should have had a role MG1's Outer Heaven is technically in South Africa, so it gets formed after the end of TPP. Raven and Octopus get recruited really early iirc, and then he finds Wolf during Desert Storm (while Solid is rolling around with the Green Berets) and Mantis presumably joins after he's grown up.

Unless they come right out and say, "we're adding more plot-based missions!" and poo poo, don't expect them to do that. From that title card alone, just expect FOB junk.

They better release all those costumes they showed off today as free DLC: Snake Eater Sneaking Suit and Snake Eater camo outfits, and Tuxedo. They also should release Big Boss as a playable character that you can select on deployment, so no scars and shrapnel but also no bionic arm.

The chance of those costumes being free is pretty close to zero, but I'd love to be wrong. The "huge updates" is probably FOB-based stuff, hopefully to do a bit of restructuring or something so that it's more balanced. I also wouldn't be surprised if they added in some way to opt-out of the PvP element completely, since the backlash against that has been pretty brutal. I would not be holding my breath for new main game story content, but anything could happen, I guess.

a cop posted:Is there anything to indicate this besides wishful thinking? Nope, but considering it's an FOB announcement that says "Huge Updates!" I can't imagine what else would qualify besides rebalancing or opt-out. Not like they're going to be making new maps or anything. There's been a ton of people blowing up about being forced to interract with the FOB stuff at all, and they *did* say it was going to be 100% optional, so that would be my first guess.

The backlash against FOBs is silly as hell considering the only resources you can lose are imaginary cloud resources that barely exist and a handful of easily replaceable soldiers

Not to mention that if you spend 5 minutes setting up some defenses, you earn way more than you lose. Like I just looked at my log and I literally get 10 successful afk defenses for every one guy that gets through. Plus, on the PS4 at least, defending is actually fairly fun.

It's true that the backlash against FOBs is in a lot of cases silly but it's also true that they're insanely imba and could be a lot more fun and competitive with some minor tweaks. So here's hoping for some balance changes.

I guess to be fair the game never really explains how insubstantial online resources are. like i have hundreds of thousands of fuel on Konami's servers somewhere but I am nowhere near the gently caress closer to being able to get the rest of my FOB platforms to 4/4.

The biggest issue I have with FOBs right now is that CQC is laggy and random up close and it's impossible not to be Fultoned by someone who knocks you down, but at range spamming grenade and rocket launchers for knockdowns and damage is better than absolutely any other strategy, so it basically comes down either to who gets lucky with spam or running into the other guy around a corner and being faster on the CQC.

I've actually only ever had one defender nade spam me, really lucky. Lots of lock-on missiles though, I don't see the appeal. Like there's tons of poo poo to hide behind on FOB platforms, they're really unthreatening. I mean I lose anyway but it's not the missiles that get me.

So is it explicitly mentioned somewhere that the Cobra Unit underwent parasite therapy for their powers? I guess it makes sense for End and Fear, but not the others. Someone changed the Wiki to say they all got their powers from VOCAL CORD PARASITES Pretty sure Fury is just an extra crispy loon with a flamethrower...

Shotguns are my favorite FOB weapon, attacking or defending. Honestly though, most people are just really bad at it. I rarely get killed, and when I do it's almost always by guards wearing me down with LMGs or because I was dumb and fell off of a tall railing. I've played about 50 FOB matches and I've only been killed by another human player twice - once from getting CQCed and thrown into the sea before I could button mash out of it, and once by a guy that unloaded a riot SMG into my skull as I was Fultoning a guard. The shotguns are just insanely good because it doesn't matter where you hit them.TheHoosier posted:So is it explicitly mentioned somewhere that the Cobra Unit underwent parasite therapy for their powers?

Someone changed the Wiki to say they all got their powers from VOCAL CORD PARASITES iirc the tape only 100% confirms it for the End; Code Talker says he wanted to look at the Pain's corpse to see how parasites let him control insects, but they wouldn't let him look at any of the others. It's possible that only the End actually had parasites, but who knows. I kind of wish they didn't do the whole "midichlorians" thing, especially since it doesn't explain all of the other supernatural poo poo in the MGS games, but I guess they just really wanted to explain Quiet.
