The guide has a character model of The Boss that looks like it would fit right in the game....

Scan it?

Spoiler
Also, they already found The Boss's character model in the game's files (same place they found Chapter 3's title card, "Peace".

The fact that the PS4/X1 versions have 7 more gigabytes than the PC version leads me to believe a third chapter is ready as disc-locked content for later... which I'm going to have to fork over money for. /:

What did I miss

He was referring to that actual character, not you.

I made that mistake as well, don't worry.

I don't think he realises what "white-knighting" means.

I still don't see it.

I'm Big Boss. And you are too.

No, he's the two of us, together.

Where we are today, we built it. This story -- this legend -- it's ours. We can change the world, and with it, the future.

I am you, and you are me. Carry that with you, wherever you go. Thank you, my friend. From here on out...

you're Big Boss.

I wanted to make my name "Lord of Admirals" but that was taken, so I went with "Prehistoric Human" as my ID and "Prehistoric" as my username.

After that, I used "Kennedy" after my "girlfriend".

After that, I was "Big Boss" on this website, for obvious reasons. I then changed to "Snake" a few months later when I invited you (the real Big Boss) to our forum.

Then, I was a variation of Snake. From prefixes like "Punished", "Venom", "Naked", "Solid", "Liquid", and "Based". Because I felt like it, really.

Then I was "Prehisnake", to fuse my two names together.

I then switched back to "Snake".

And then I started calling myself Saladin because I wanted to change my name to Big Boss, but that was taken. Plus it was pretty cool.

Then Gatsby posted a bunch of spoilers in my thread so I became "Sadladin" to emphasise my mindset at the time.

After the game released, I realised I didn't like Big Boss all that much anymore, so I switched back to "Snake" (which can refer to Solid, Solidus, Liquid, Naked, and Venom, all at once).

And a few hours ago I switched my name to "Eliab" because he was the older brother of King David in the Bible. David is Solid Snake's real name, and my avatar is Liquid Snake.
Spoiler
Also, "Eli" is a short form of "Eliab", and Liquid's real name is Eli.

It's easy to do when I haven't played with the subtitles and when it comes to the forums I haven't seen any threads or posts about what he actually said. Every Reach topic I've been in was about the MP, maps, levels or the story and not a about a word being said by him. For your shit about moving to a Halo off-site as far as I know this is the first time what he actually said got brought up here and that was because I made that post. If it wasn't for me making that post I would have still thought that because I haven't seen any posts about it and I got rid of Reach.

I doubt you've never played with the subtitles on.

I doubt you've never seen this argument before.

You don't have to be an ass because I misunderstood a character with a THICK ACCENT who said "ma'am" which sounds just like mom.

...why did you post the video? I obviously know the scene pretty well, and I understand why someone could make that mistake.

5 years ago.

Quote
Also what does the game being 5 years old have to do with anything?

Because it's a ridiculously common misconception that has been addressed time and time again.

You'd have to be some kind of absent-minded fuckhead to not pick up on that.

Today is the first day withing those 5 years that somebody pointed out my error.

Spoiler
But suddenly, towards the end of the game, Big Boss contacts you on a new frequency and begins giving you bogus advice to try and sabotage your mission.
Real Big Boss's frequency: 120.85
Venom Snake's frequency: 120.13
This second Big Boss on the new frequency is Venom Snake trying to stall Solid Snake's mission.
Spoiler
Excellent observation. It's so fitting that it makes you wonder if Kojima planned this twist from the beginning.

Quote
Spoiler
It isn't clear, and it will never be clear, what Big Boss's grand plan was for Operation Intrude N313.

Spoiler
Training Solid Snake to fight the Patriots. If he can single-handedly take down the best soldier on the planet, "Big Boss" (who is really Venom. Venom Snake > Big Boss in fighting skill, given his greater muscle mass. The difference is minimal, but still worth noting.), he can take on the organisation Big Boss has been fighting his whole life, and potentially win.

Quote
Spoiler
The Outer Heaven uprising is intended to be a rebellion against the Patriots, but at some point it may have become obvious that it was going to fail.

Spoiler
Probably because Outer Heaven was simply a military stronghold, whereas Zanzibarland was meant to be a truly sovereign nation of soldiers. The key difference between Ahab and Ishmael, was their intentions.

Not trying to contest, just adding some commentary to it.

Quote
Spoiler
You can hear him [Solid Snake] fighting outside the room Venom is in.

Quote
Spoiler
Ehhh... I'm yet to be convinced of this. The beginning establishes that Outer Heaven has become an atmosphere of "war without end", so it's only natural to hear gunfire and such in the background in a place that is perpetually in battle.

It's a nice thought but there's little to no evidence of it. Especially considering MG1's reliance on stealth rather than combat.

Quote
Spoiler
I think the tape contains Venom Snake's final mission: to die for the Big Boss legend. If Venom gives his life and takes responsibility for the uprising, Big Boss will be able to remain undercover and unharmed, ultimately allowing Venom to complete his mission as a lightning rod for Big Boss. In the end, Venom gets the same mission that the US handed down to the Boss in MGS3: he is to die for his cause and will go down in history as a war criminal. No one will know who he was, no one will know what he sacrificed. His life, his face, his ideology, everything was to be taken by Big Boss and his legend. Big Boss does literally the same thing that the Philosophers/the US did to the Boss, the very thing he swore to stop so many years before.

Spoiler
Now that's an interesting perspective.

I think the fact that Ahab was unconsentually transformed into Big Boss's phantom, which in turn meant that he was forced to give up his past, his identity and potentially other sacred things like family and friends, and then asked to die for someone else's cause, even though he had been fighting so that soldiers could fight for their own ideologies, would be enough to break him.

Would've been great if that was expressed in the actual game. It would also help demonstrate just how far gone Big Boss (Ishmael) is from his former self; how evil he has truly become.

It's an easy enough mistake to make. I thought he was saying it for well over a year.

Which was nearly 4 years ago.

I thought he said "mom" the first time, too.

The problem is, this is a super common misconception that's been addressed at length. There's no good reason over 5 years later for him to still be thinking this.

I don't know how you don't frequent a Halo forum for years, discuss Halo at length, move to a Halo off-site, discuss Halo at length again, and still think this.

Boggles my mind.

Metal Gear, according to Dunkey.

Quote
In Metal Gear Solid 2 Ocelot throws the entire story out the window. Also, for some fucking reason Ocelot glued liquids arm on and now his arm mind controls him. It also changes his voice actor to the one for liquid, this confuses snake so much that his head literally explodes.

Now that Snake is dead forever. You have to play as gay raiden, a big stupid crybaby losers who doesn't even smoke. This time you have to infilitrate a remote military compound called Metal Moses, which was captured by a group of genetically enhanced genome super-soilders.

Raiden fights a magic vampire wizard then the wizards head pops off to reveal that he was actually solid snikes brother solidus snake, a super-cell-nano-con-mega-soilder cloned from the same nanomachines that created Solid Gear. Also he is is the president of the united states. "Brother, I am the KING OF THE PIRATES". Turns out Gas Snake is the leader of a deadcell nano-centro-processor duonamic simbafu group called The Sons of the Guns of the Patroits. tm

You see it turns out that everything so far was completely staged and fake. Liquid Snake was never the true ring leader at all, but was answering to Solidus Snake the entire time who was the biggest bad guy of them all. But then he gets double crossed by Ocelot who is actually Liquid who was actually a quadruple agent the whole time. and the biggest most evil bad guy of them all.

But Smetal Snake saw it coming all along and reveals that he is actually a proxy ai created by the patriots 1000 years ago, but Solidus reveals that Rayden has information that is being carried by the nanomachines in raydens cerebral cortex. You see shitty rayden is actualy a robot this whole time, working for le-lu-li-lo-la-la-low and the patriots but he didnt even know it because of the matrix.

So Rayden chops of doctor octopus's head off and becomes the president of the united states, but Solid snake was alive all along and goes back in time to the 1960s so he can blow up Metal Gear Solid before it was even created.

Unfortnuately he was too late, Ocelot also went back in time and shot metal gear ron into the the future with his future gun.
so metal gear snake has to shoot back into the future but now its so many years future hes old as shit, even though hes died from old age he has to defeat a group of renegade genome super-soilders known as the Sons of Foxhound. Liquid Ocelot who is now being mind controlled by 30 different double-agents through his left leg, turns off all the guns in the world so that nobody can ever shoot anybody ever again, in turn saving the entire world. So snake beats him to death.

the end

*guest starring big boss*

Big Boss : very convincing, but all completely wrong, you see snake turns out everything that ever happened was fake and staged by the super-patriots, the patriots were just a pawn and a reverse-triple agent working for solidus snake, but when he found out they were working for him he double crossed his own self in order to make himself work for them to trick them into being a triple reverse agent for his own self. hewas also a rogue proxy ai and a nanomachine you see snake shadow moses wasn't a remote nuclear warhead facility at all, it was actually a humongous on switch for the biggest metal gear in the world, metal gear herman. A metal gear so powerful that is so powerful that everything in the entire universe is not even existing anymore. You see snake Liquid Ocelot was actually my mother.
It all started when i was in office as the president of the c united states i discovered remnants of an ancient-nanograde-genome-supercon-simbaf­udrive--metal-gear which was a quintrople agent working for every country in the universe - on the moon.
he was also a rogue-ai and the leader of the super patriots.

Cool thing about Wandering Motherbase Soldier missions

If you use the cardboard box, the soldier won't run away even if he sees you because he realizes that you're Big Boss.

I always felt congested when in the copter or in buildings. Finally.

When I get my laptop for school I'm going to get something that can play MGSV decently well, so I can utilise some of these fantastic mods.

What the fuck is this thread

Our Outer Heaven.

this thread has 130 fucking pages

Almost more than the total pages in Gaming.



I think it's because we have something like 5-15 MGS fans, but the ones we do have, are HUGE fans.

For those considering getting it: don't.

In a few months, there will be some kind of sale where you'll get it for a far better price than what it is now. Just because you don't have anything to play doesn't mean you should buy into this hype shit.

I'll probably get it next summer if I'm really bored, because by then there'll be a big price reduction once Destiny 2 is announced at E3.

Spoiler
I was expecting at least 7 hours of cutscenes. In reality, we get 5 at best, 3 on first play through.

But it's not even that. The cutscenes don't really do anything. I reckon that at least 70% of the game's cutscenes are irrelevant. Which is staggering when every cutscene was crucially relevant in the previous games.

There's no definitive first, second or third act. The game doesn't feel well-paced because it isn't. It abruptly ends after and hour and a half of "story", and which point it promises more (most of which can be entirely missed if you don't know how to trigger it.)

If this is some kind of metaphydical joke about a missing game being our Phantom Pain, like some have theirised, than not only does that not work (to have a Phantom Pain, you nust lose somrthing, not start off without it. A person born eith legs doesn't have a phantom pain for their legs.), it feels like a cheap way to cut content and effort out of the final product.

What would have been a better idea would be to remove an entire playspace (like Afghanistan) from being playable during the second Chapter. Or something like that.
