Id like that info too please.

.


I believe its somewhere in this interview, Kojima saids something along the lines of looking for away to implement the older features that fans missed into TPP but some of them might be implemented differently to fit the realistic tone.

I kinda hope that they end up releasing both of the exclusive levels to the other console. Watched a video that showed off the PS4 level and it look pretty neat. Xbox one was alright though.

I dunno why but im surprised you hated it soo much Ryan. Also its for different reasons that what i was expecting, like difficulty. Did you like Tomb Raider? Out of any other game it reminded me the most of that.

The classic elements i miss the most is things like the codec. Kaz talking over the gameplay really bothers me. In MGS4 it wasn't intrusive in any way. CQC isnt as fun to me here. I always loved beating up guys in MGS but its harder to do now, i always end up throwing them instead.

Also there is definitely story here Ryan, while only a taste, did you not appreciate how much better this is edited as compared to say MGS4?

No, I didn't enjoyed the Tomb Raider reboot and I've stated my reasons on why over the span of several boards. Don't bother looking up my post but instead watch this entertaining video instead:



As for the story, my worst fear is that all the gore and sexual assaults will be used for shock factor and nothing more, which turned out to be true. one of my favourite movies is Schindler's List, and that used all kinds of violence to prove a point. A lot of my friends still find that movie hard to watch. This on the other hand, is handled with little integrity and finesses.

That bad?
I think this game is the most realistic game yet.I really can't find much i dislike about it.I do miss the wall knock though.

Yes it is hyper realistic, so much so that I thought "Damn, what if the older games had this level of gameplay?" Regardless, realism always doesn't equal a great game, just look at how many fans Gran Turismo is loosing over the years.

I miss the pat down from MGS4

So did I! I was desperately trying to pat down some guys till I noticed that it's been removed. As a veteran of the series, I think they should have made it clear on what is new and was were removed.

All in all guys, like I said before- if you're intent on getting the game, please do. Don't let anyone or anything detract you from getting it and have fun with it. I'm worried that I might come off as someone who hates Kojima and Metal Gear, which I don't. I'm just surprised and disappointed at what him and the series has become.

 

[pturtle]

So your just not liking the direction the series is going in, or is there some gameplay elements that you home that makes it in TPP spark your interest back into the series?

 

[Jameson Rook]

It really felt like Ubisoft was making this game and in order to attract new fans they added themes like gore and sexual assaults. Even MGS4 still felt like it had Koijma had his magic touch still. The story felt under the bottom restraint until BOOM gore! Sexual assault! Kojima's past brilliance is nowhere to be found except in the demonstration of the amazing FOX engine.

Heck,the audio quality is as good as a PS2 game and nowhere near as good as MGS4 is evident that he's only striving for the visuals this time. In MGS4, the audio was so good, you can almost touch it.

I've defended MGS2 several times because it at least was trying something new, at least Kojima was earnest on telling a provocative story whether you ended up enjoying it or not. Nothing I see in Ground Zeroes could be considered provocative or challenges the post modern era like MGS1/2 did. The FOX engine undoubtedly would cost as much as building the Titanic, and they need all the money they can get from everybody to fund it. That's all I see and I pray that by the time TPP comes out, I'm dead wrong. I wanna see MGS thrive, not sink.

Anyway guys, I'm doing my second playtrough of the game in a few hours for a better rank and the side missions. I'll admit the learning curve is incredibly steep and I' confident that firing up the game a second time would be much more enjoyable than my first disappointing impressions with the game.

I enjoyed the game with more playthroughs, hopefully you do to.

Just found this on youtube, he made it clear.

Been in that boat for years now. TPP will probably be a blast to play since it's a sandbox game, I just find it odd that it's a sandbox MGS game...

 

[Jesterhead]

Awesome, after a few days away from GZ I just cleared the Ground Zeroes mission with S Rank. It's pretty easy once you know the map and understand the enemy AI. And I didn't use that pesky Reflex Mode at all!

 

[Jackhepburn]

Reflex mode went straight off, it was far too easy with it on

 

[pturtle]

Yup, I play with it off as well, the game feels much better with it off.

It's a weird time for the series, indeed.

"Just don't buy it" . Yup. That's a pretty good review in under one minute.

Here's a question for all

Is GZ the best, and most happy you've been from playing a new MGS game on it's release? Like your first impressions of the game.

How would you rate it? along with the others

 

[Jackhepburn]

MGS - 9/10
MGS2 - 7.5/10
TS - 7/10
MGS3 - 9.5/10
MGS4 - 8.5/10
PW - 7.5/10
MGR - 7.5/10
GZ - 8/10

Well this is my opinion on the games anyway, so don't judge me

I don't remember PO much since my PSP stopped reading discs so I've left that one out

It's the most satisfying for me.

 

[Solidus]

I'm just really waiting for a price drop so I can test this thing out for myself . I have a lot of skepticism for the the direction of the storyline, but the gameplay looks very challenging, and I like how fluid everything is. I remember when I first played MGS 2 - when Raiden first entered the Big Shell, and there was a opening scene where Snake CQC'd some guards, knocked them out, and entered the elevator. I thought to myself, "how cool would it be to actually do that?". But, now, it looks like it's actually possible to do that (with Big Boss, of course).

For me, it's up there, mainly because my ps4 was in desperate need of a new game. I'm literally only disappointed with the wall knock feature missing. As soon the intro cutscene was finished, I had the excited feeling, that I was playing a new MGS on my PS4.

It doesn't equal my excitement for MGS2 or 4, because I knew what I was in store for, before playing it. With those games I was taking everything in as I was playing them.

What Ground Zeroes did do though, is enhance excitement for TPP more than any other game probably ever. I wasn't even this excited for MGS4, and was pretty excited for that game.

Insanely pumped for Phantom Pain. Just watched the first mission's gameplay again, love it.

I think Ground Zeroes should have ended what we saw of 1975, but since we didnt see the scrambling around in the hospital and announcing he's in a coma that means Phantom Pain will start in 1975.
