Media Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain & Ground Zeroes

[Snake Plissken]

You need to keep dying a few times to get it, and I accidentally selected to use it once but I restarted to get rid of it.

Has anyone successfully uploaded their GZ data to this thing? It keeps telling me I don't have it, when I pretty much have a 100% save file... do I need to go into GZ and do something first? You get a Solid Snake skin when you do apparently. I already unlocked the Gray Fox skin, with Snake's face.

Yes, you upload it from the game's menu (GZ). PSN doesn't actually do it automatically.

Yea, It worked fine for me

the Challenge Missions are Frustrating as hell ! especially mission 43..

as i saw IGN's video regarding the game, they skipped the Challenge missions and even got the True Ending, so i'm skipping the rest of the challenge missions, not a fan of repeat in higher difficulties

Yeah, I got all my recruits, the GZ suit and the Solid Snake skin. All you need to do is upload the data on the main menu of GZ.

You don't need to do any of them, just skip all the repeat missions and do side missions.

I laughed and shook my head, the plot I can't write home,
I searched this foreign land, for days and days I foamed,

I gazed the barren land, at all the millions stuff
that has been taken out, a long long time ago,

Who knows? not me
Kojima lost control,

You're face to face
With the Man who Trolled the World.

Awesome, i didnt know cyborg ninja outfit was in the game. Just uploaded my ground zeroes save and it appeared

I gotta stay off Reddit, there's idiots ranking the series like this.


MGS2 -> (Rising) -> MGSV -> MGSPW -> MGS3 -> MG2 -> MGS4 -> MGS1 -> MG1

Left(best) to Right(worst)
Gameplay:
MGSV -> MGS3 -> MGS PW -> MGS4 -> MGS2 -> MGS1/MG2:SS (should combine them really, seeing as they are practically the same game only rendered in 2d and 3d) -> MGS PO -> MG1
Story:
MGS3 -> MGS2 -> MGS PW -> MGS1/MGS4 (equal foot for me) -> MGS PO -> MGSV -> MG2:SS -> MG1

MGSV:TPP > MGS2 > MGS3 > MGSPW > MG2:SS > MGR:R > MGSV:GZ > MGS4 > MGS > MGSO > MG

Man, is this fanbase ****ing stupid.

MGSV may be the first game to break my favourite cycle

MGS1>MGS2>(MGSV?)>MGS3>MGS4

I'm only on episode 14 but I'm highly enjoying it. It's the first game since 3 I could recommend to new comers

What! All I got was the MGS1 suit. What did I do wrong?

After completing V, it comes in dead last in the main series.
But for the whole series... MGS1/MGS2/MGS3/MGS4=MGR/MPO/MG2/MG1/PW/MGSV




This guy must be smoking crack.

The reason I ranked MGS1 so low is
1.) it had clunky controls even back then
2.) like 60% of the game was MG2
3.) the dialogue was god awful because it was literally filled with nothing. You could take any cutscene and trim it down to ~4 lines and nothing would be lost. It didnt even serve for character development or anything.
4.) Forced shooting sections
5.) insane amount of unneccesary backtracking
6.) mostly awful bossfights (everything but Psycho Mantis and Vulcan Raven, really)
7) its insanely short
I mean, it did some things insanely well and it was the groundwork, but rating a game highly because of that is stupid.

Man, is this fanbase ****ing stupid.

The rising ranking is utterly hilarious. The game was a gimmicky cash grab at a shot to play as Raiden. Its not a part of the main series and nor is it canon.

I love Rising, but ranking it that high is outright retarded.

Did you play MGSV yet?

 

[Solidus]

This series has attracted way too many newcomers since Peace Walker.

The gameplay in MGS V is great, but there's such a lack of quality storytelling and cinematic flare, it feels almost alien. I'm on Mission 28 now.

 

[Snake Plissken]

You're almost on chapter 2. MGSV outside of one dumb plot device, is pretty irrelevant to the entire series.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I must say, all of the characters in this game are pretty lousy and don't really have any substance to them. Although I came to like Quiet a lot, and she doesn't even speak. Ocelot isn't anything like the personality he should be and seems like he came from a completely different universe. Miller is just a rageoholic, and his good cop bad cop **** with Ocelot is lame. Huey outright ****ing SUCKS in this game, and is just a padded character to fill up the roster. Big Boss... a mute, who seems like he's so far removed from the previous games and carries no weight at all. Like, I don't understand why any of the men even follow him. Skull Face is just another Final Fantasy character Kojima conjoured up, with yet another ridiculous back story who doesn't really add anything at all to the game and he's the main villain. Retard Rex was a Metal Gear thrown in just for the sake of it, it doesn't offer anything either.

Overall, I can't believe this took 80 million to make and they put it out unfinished.

 

[Jameson Rook]

My main problem with this game is that the story amounts to nothing and nothing amounts to anything.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Man on Fire is truly infuriating... seriously, yet another hack character. Eli is just a bastard kid, that has no reason to be in the game, same with The Third Boy.

The only thing I agree with is controls, compared to other games for the time, and some cutscenes that I felt didn't add anything, but there were maybe three, and they had Meryl in them I think. The dialogue as a whole was never bad per se. Bossfights being bad, eh, kinda. Length is irrelevant because many PS1 games, and even N64 games, were pretty short, hell, MGS1 was considerably longer than them. Backtracking...maybe? I think it is a bad worse than MGS2, but I only had an issue with the sniper rifle, and getting back to the Sniper Wolf area, nothing else was bad.

Man, is this fanbase ****ing stupid.

Ain't it the truth. **** this fanbase sometimes, seriously.

My ranking would be MGS 3 > MGS 1/2 (I need to replay both to make up my decision > MGR > MGS 4 > PW. I have not played anything else, so I will not rank them till then.
