What a shit show
You've got a way to fall
Why have there been so many Metal Gear solid threads lately?
>>386122589

I NEED TO BE ALONE WHILE I SUFFER
>>386122402

Because I recently played through MGS3.I kept getting spotted and often dying and got a C for my "efforts".I'm not the one starting the threads tho.

Is this the best use of a licenced song in the series? Bar maybe nuclear
>>386122589
Although I didn't create this one, I'm replaying through the whole series, I'm guilty of creating one thread for each game after I finished each entry. Still have MGS 4 (currently in progress), PW and V to replay. Debating whether or not to buy Portable Ops.
I just love this series more and more as time goes by. Everytime I replay a MGS game I appreciate more stuff and learn new things.

The Man Who Sold the World in MGS V intro is pretty good as well.
>>386123710
How many licensed songs were even used prior to MGSV?
>>386124448
One to three per game.
thats ok i didn't feel like trying you anyways
>>386124808
Leave it in the past anon. Let the dead rest in peace.

>>386124113
The way it wasn't David Bowie's version relative to the story of V is fucking awesome.
We are not your kind of people...
>>386125296
To someone who hasn't listened to the original in many, many years, it even managed to fool me into thinking it was the original version. Good cover that one.
And the whole intro was cut pretty spectacularly with that song playing in the background.
The Nuclear trailer is probably the best use of licensed music I've seen for a long time. Any other song would not have created the insane amount of hype that it did.
>>386122589
I started playing mgsv 2 weeks ago and believe it is because I live in a Truman show-esq world that people working make threads of my interest before I log on to /v/

seriously, fucking how? It was pretty obvious she wanted a peaceful world
>>386128465
Because they're all soldiers and fighters who can't fathom a world without war and conflict. Big Boss figured it out in PW but instead of going along with it he said 'fuck that' and went the complete opposite because he didn't like the idea of not fighting anymore ever. It took him until MGS4 to realize this was the wrong choice.
>>386128687
David was literally bred for the sole purpose of being as killer and he even knew what Big Boss was doing was wrong
>>386128796
Well that's why he is the hero of the series. He's different than all the rest.
Ironically he is the only one who actually manages to do something to further The Boss' will and he didn't even know she existed.
>>386122524
Why do people shit on MGS4's story when Peace Walker's story was 50x worse?
>>386122589
TGBS made a video defending MGS4 and there was autistic rage from PC-only /v/irgins
Reminder that Zero did nothing wrong while Big Boss went nuclear and became a warmongering sociopath
>>386129280
Then why did he get AIDs from Skullface?
>>386123949
Portable ops is worth buying
>>386122589
For half a year or more we couldn't talk about any game in this popular and fairly well liked series because of schizo trannys. Now that they're suicided we are making up for lost time.
>>386128943
But Peace Walker has a better story than MGS4, David Hayter sounds like an autist with throat cancer but the story is better. Big Boss' early days as a mercenary alongside Kaz is more interesting that whatever the fuck MGS4 was supposed to be. PSP limitations and comic book cutscenes aside, Peace Walker was a better story and a solid follow-up to MGS3.
I never thought of you as a son
>>386129785
The mammal pod is probably the stupidest thing in the series
I bought MGS5 for the PS3.
Am I losing anything from the PS4 version?

Just beat MGS 3 like 5 minutes ago
I beat mgs 2 last week and beat MGS a couple years ago.
Is the next step Peace Walker or portible ops?
I heard you can skip portible ops without any problems to the story, like it's story is sort of segmented from the rest of the games
Reminder that tranqs trivialise the game and you don't deserve max ranking if you abuse them
>>386122589
Because there are a couple of good games in the series. Too bad most are 6/10.
>>386130405
You can skip PO since Kojima decided it doesn't exist for whatever reason, but its still a good game and Gene is genuinely one of the most interesting Metal Gear 'villains' to exist.
>>386130262
Well I am the only person that thinks kojima was a hack since the first solid and still is and will forever be
>>386130507
Everyone knows he's a hack, but that doesn't make mgs a bad series
>>386130262
I like them all too. They all offer something interesting and most have fun boss fights if nothing else.
Can't Say Goodbye to Yesterday is the best song in the series
>implying you can prove me wrong
>>386130405
Play MGS4, every other game is shit
>>386130405
Imo the only essential games are MG MG2SS MGS and MGS3. The rest is convoluted filler.
>>386130405
4 is the next game in the series.

>I admit he is a hack but the games are good
How can that be? if he is a hack he can't make good stuff.
I think you just fell for his camera close ups, emotional scenes and murrikan pandering. If you remove all that, the game is kinda meh.
>>386129928
What's stupid about an AI? And MGS4 has the highest concentration of stupid shit in the series.

>Everything in MGS2, including Ocelot being possessed by an arm, literally happened
That's all on top of only having two acts of actual gameplay, forced on-rails shooting segments and literally being the CoD4 of MGS games. The last hour is good but it doesn't excuse the travesty that is everything else.
>>386122589
/mgg/ died so there's nowhere to discuss it on the regular
>>386122589
Because Metal Gear is the best series to ever grace this planet.
I'd suck Kojima dry
>>386130886
>Ocelot being possessed by an arm, literally happened
It didn't though. It was Ocelot being Ocelot and acting overly dramatic to fool the Patriot's into thinking he had really been taken over so he could carry out his plans without them getting suspicious.
>>386130101
The series literally has supernatural elements and people in the real world have survived being shot multiple times in the head with no severe consequences other than ugly scars.
>>386130262
I like them all, but some are worse than others. Still, I look at the, as a whole package, I'd never pretend one doesn't exist.
>>386130886
It seemed like a cheap way to get some emotion in the story but it wasn't really warranted
B&B shit on MGSV's "Bosses"
How was Vamp and Naomi forced?
The 2 acts in MGS4 had more to do than the entirety of Peace Walkers shit levels
>>386130028
Why did Venom Snake turn out to be so much better than Naked Snake when he was created to be an exact duplicate?
>>386129942
You're losing 30 frames every second, but other than that, no.
>>386130886
>Drebin
He's explained and is there for a reason, which is to sell weapons and ammo since it's explained that weapons are ID Tagged
>Vamp, Naomi and even fucking Mei Ling being forced back into the story for no reason
The reason was to callback MGS1 and Vamp is there to kill him off after he escaped at the end of MGS2
>Johnny proposing to Meryl while they're in the middle of a shootout
He's Japanese and likes anime, what the fuck were you expecting
>Johnny becoming a major character at all
See above
>B&B unit
3 of them had good boss fights, and the charismatic villain slot is filled by Liquid Ocelot and Vamp. Wish there was more, but they're around for long enough.
>40 minute cutscenes explaining the plot instead of actually showing it
And they're skippable, and the plot is pretty easy to understand if you take it as it is rather than overthinking it. I skipped most of the cutscenes and understood it
>Mt. Snakemore
Can't defend it, but it matters so little that there is no reason to criticize it
>Everything in MGS2, including Ocelot being possessed by an arm, literally happened
Except it did, they just had to write around most of it because MGS2 was never supposed to get a direct sequel.
>>386131276
Because he still had a soul and felt remorse unlike BB who lost all that shit when he killed The Boss. Because of BB Venom too descended into madness eventually.
>>386129785
>the AI started thinking with its AI heart, not its AI brain
no
>>386131157
The place also got bombed to shit, I think Big Boss would have a hard time believing she survived.
Just face it, the plot of PW is paperthin and absolute dogshit, only beaten out of the 'Worst in the Series' spot by V and PO
>>386131274
Watch MGS1's ending again and ask yourself why Naomi would EVER have needed to come back, especially while having a love affair with a gay vampire and leaving Otacon a bawling mess.
>>386131473
He wanted her to have survived because of his emotional attachment. Deep down I think he knew it couldn't possibly be her, but he had to check it out anyway because he desperately wanted her to still be alive.
Anyway, BB was never the smartest man to grace the planet to begin with.
>>386131564
Just keep being autistic and using headcanon to justify your shit story
>>386131517
It was known in 2005 with the first promotional image of MGS4 that she was coming back, that was the point of MGS4, every character would be coming back one last time
>>386131473
I always thought it got bombed to shit by the MiGs she called, but they didn't actually bomb the area The Boss died (Kruschev called off the bombing) and the Davy Crocketts she fired were aimed at the Groznyij Grad base, not the lake or the flower field.
I do agree PW plot is horseshit, though.
>>386131674
I will thanks, and you're welcome to still think it's shit.
Reminder that Kojima wanted this to be a goodbye kiss but Konami threw a shit fit and blocked it.
>>386131276
The hypnotherapy was wearing off, he got imprinted with BB's memories, but not his actual feelings. Venom Snake is a better man than BB at that point in time. BB was happy Venom lost his life and became another BB.

I would at least recommend mainlining PW if you're planning to also play V. You will have no idea who Paz, Chico, Kaz, or Huey are and they are major characters in V. The short summary that Ground Zeroes gives you doesn't really suffice

Does peace walker run on the same engine as mgs3? They have a lot of similar animations
>>386136826
He's The Boss' son so it kind of makes sense he'd have a thing for him.
>>386136986
Animations aren't tied to engines

Yes but not the exact same version

mgs 3 codec was shit, too much info about menial stuff like where the animals in an specific area are from. MGS 2 was god tier because it was actually about the relationships between characters.

Right: Shit movie, incredible gameplay
>>386144696
Peace walker. Both of those are excellent. This shit meme needs to die.
>>386142498
Dude, you only get that shit when you actually call Para-Medic. You're being the guy who complains about Nastasha Romanenko existing in MGS1. None of her calls were necessary, but they were chock full of real life info.
>>386142498
yeah, those codec calls fleshing out the relationship between rose and raiden were so good anon...
Honestly there isn't that much difference between the codec in mgs1 and 2. If you were to ask me what made the codec in 2 better than the first it would be the interactivity. in the tanker chapter go inside a locker and call otacon. In plant chapter call plisken when he is sleeping. Peek under the hostages skirt and hitting the hostages results in calls and don't forget shooting the pigeons. It's rad as hell. mgs1 has this also but not nearly as much. Kill a bunch of crows, shooting meryl, and after the second wolf battle look for liquids parachute and call campbell are some that come to mind.
Thing with three is it takes it a step further. It gets so much praise precisely because every animal you have eaten results in a different codec call. It took the best part of the codec calls and added a shit ton of content with them.
They dropped the ball with 4 and 5 big time but at least PW had a FUCK ton of tapes to listen too and you could listen to specific ones any time you wanted.
>>386144696
v.
I'll never get how you can't like 4
>>386128943
I don't like PW's story much (it's intensely redundant; we already knew why the Boss did what she did) but MGS4 is a lot worse.
>>386145196
Made more sense with the mission. Nastasha at least had a dark past you slowly uncover and she talked a lot about nuclear energy and warfare, which were tied to the plot. It wasn't just weapon talk.
In MGS3 we got two exposition characters (Sigint and Para-medic) that don't reveal anything about their pasts and are only there to talk about guns, animals and movies.
>>386144696
>a nostalgia filled farewell or an unfinished "fuck you, here's another one" unecessary and overhyped "fun" filled with microtransactions
Hmm...
>>386122402
This game was so magical. To date MGS2 and 3 are the only games to marry the blunt, eccentric storytelling of the Japanese with Hollywood direction.

same thing with Jesus
>>386146802
I'm so immature I actually laughed at the barrel scene with him, but I think it was more because of the tone clash, 2 minutes ago you had the serious stealth and operating, getting to grips with the game, then all of a sudden you're listening to to Johnny rolling around in a barrel braaaping like an AA gun

>>386149192
>Metal Gear Rising had the best soundtrack.

>MGR:R
>greatest anything
The soundtrack was Sonic the Hedgehog-tier buttrock, the gameplay was the usual Platinum hack-and-slash with a little bit of stealth duct-taped on, Quinton Flynn's voice acting is an absolute joke, and half the villains are as one-dimensional as Fatman (Monsoon gets sort of redeemed in Sam's DLC, Sam is only half-evil, and Armstrong is Armstrong).
>>386149840
Sorry, I can't remember 90% of the soundtracks of past MGS games (the tracks are either terribly generic or very memorable in those OSTs), while the MGR songs are stuck in my head since the day the game was released.
>>386150631
I'm not talking gameplay, which was very by the numbers as far as hack n slash games go, I'm saying the OST was memorable to me and made the boss fights better.
Where the fuck is my sequel
>>386151176
Where the fuck is my Sunny hacker game
>>386151236

>>386147395
The lighting and setting is neat, but the narrative context isn't all that affecting for me and never has been. It's just fanwanky, and I didn't care for Liquid Ocelot in MGS4. He never felt all that Liquid-y to me (though maybe that was intentional).
>>386148653
But GZ has the best gameplay, Anon.
>>386148653
>MGS3 has the best overall story
Only the ending has much impact. I've always found the central plot kind of dull, and Naked Snake's relationship with the Boss only congeals into something worthwhile at the very end. For the vast majority of the game we're expected to care about her because the game tells us to; there's not much there.
>MGSV has the best gameplay
Nah, though it's the best at giving the player options.
