You complain about the lack of miniguns on the helicopter's door in GZ but that helicopter, an HP-48 Krokodil (which is a fictitious mix between a Mi-24 Hind and a Mi-28 Havoc), has a 30mm autocannon under its nose which kind of outclasses the 7.62mm minigun that the UTH-66 Blackfoot (not at all an UH-60 Black Hawk). That, and fact that the Hind is also a lot heavier armoured than a Black Hawk, makes me unreasonably mad that they made that change, especially since BB uses the helicopter as both a transport helicopter and as an attack helicopter; the Hind is much better suited for that.

 The moai heads are an extended reference to Gradius, a classic shooty ship series made by Konami in which moai heads appeared as enemies.

I haven't kept up with this thread well since it started, but was MGS4 left out? I don't see it in the OP anywhere.

We decided MGSV fit better since it's a direct sequel to Peace Walker. Also I wanna play V  MGS4 will likely be the last game of the thread, I feel it fits that the thread ends with everything we've done returning to Zero.

"Dan likes to do things the 100% way." "We could go get the other tape and get a couple bonus points, but I don't want to." Way to keep your stories straight! The Camp Omega really does look different with the rain & cover of night. Shame they didn't remix the layout somewhat VR Missions/Substance style for some of the extra missions though. Big Boss / Not-Big Boss is crazy fit for their age, what with being able to run full sprint along a cliff with dudes over their back. Also the timer compilation video would purely be to your benefit as it would in theory beat into your head to always start the timer. In theory.

pick-e posted:Oh it was a feature in the whole? These following games really are PW 2.0! Actually, Peace Walker is Portable Ops 2.0 (Although Portable Ops had a 1.5 in Portable Ops Plus). I kind of want to see Dan handle Portable Ops blind but I can't imagine how he'd record it, plus it's a pain in the rear end to play after being used to the other games. Portable Ops has a batshit plot on par with Ghost Babel though, so it may in fact be worth it.

I actually already have PSP emulation set up fairly well because I wanted to start Acid a while back, POOPS+ shouldn't be too hard to emulate as a result. If the controls are similar to PSP Peace Walker it shouldn't be an issue, I'm relatively used to those controls It all comes down to me actually having the opportunity to do stuff

If the controls are similar to PSP Peace Walker it shouldn't be an issue, I'm relatively used to those controls POPS+ has none of the plot of POPS. That said, the main issue with the controls in POPS is that it, uh, gave you 4 slots to hold weapons and 4 slots for items. Additional ammo past your first clip is an item slot. Also there's no Fultons yet so you have to manually drag everyone one at a time to either the start of the map or to specific points of the map. It's...really annoying. But it also has better bosses than Peace Walker, I'd say.

It has the boss battles in the form of an unlockable Boss Rush, but if you want the actual plot of the game you get Portable Ops. There's an option to transfer your Portable Ops units to Portable Ops Plus since Plus was basically meant to be a means to extend the lifespan of the last remaining multiplayer platform for the year gap between MGS3's servers going down and MGS4's servers going up.

Nominating a Grace drinking condition of "drink every time Reflex Mode ends with neither an alert nor a kill." Because I have the distinct feeling Dan won't have the patience to use the dart or thrown magazines every single time his sprinting gets him spotted. And so there's this dichotomy of Dan drinking for arbitrary dumb behavior and Grace drinking for unlikely displays of skill.

The evolving missions in GZ so far are all pretty interesting, moreso than most of the rather static ones in PW.

It's a pure-gameplay abstraction to allow the player to be the badass soldier that Big Boss is supposed to be cause it would be kind of incongruous if after decades in the field he can't point a gun at some random poo poo and shoot them before they raise the alert. Sorry.

Solid Snake knew CQC the whole time but he didn't use it because Big Boss is dumb, but then Snake Eater came out and everyone started doing CQC, but they were doing it wrong so Snake had to start using CQC again to show people the right CQC.

I just want everyone to realize that this is pretty much actually why Solid Snake uses CQC in 4 and not the others. Of all the rear end pulls in MGS, that one might be my favourite.
