Hero-of-Time Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Looked for a Phantom Pain topic but only for a Ground Zeroes one in the search. Any Mod feel free to merge this in if there is one kicking about. The music...the trailer. Hideo you beautiful SOB. E3 has arrived.
drahkon Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Not working :p I watched the English one just now. I need this game!

Retro_Link Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) 30minute gameplay demo released It looks fantastic! Just wish I was a fan of the series. Edited June 20, 2014 by Retro_Link
drahkon Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Have seen that video this morning. I want this so badly. NOW.

drahkon Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Phantom Pain preview show tonight at 8pm (CEST) Twitch stream Part of me hopes Kojima will announce the release date, part of me knows he won't Anyway, I'll probably watch the show!
Happenstance Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Im just looking forward to seeing more next gen box technology.
Cube Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 As it hasn't been posted yet, here's what they've shown of the next gen box technology so far
drahkon Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 I love it Currently playing some side missions in Ground Zeroes : peace: I can't wait for Phantom Pain to be released.
dwarf Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Hello, I'm curmudgeoning again. This stuff is bollocks. I don't understand why, if you're trying to make a serious story-driven game with tense gameplay, you'd want to undo it with these naff ideas, all of which require fiddly button commands. The combat options available in 4 were already superfluous. The porn mags in Sons of Liberty were bullshit enough, but at least they functioned somewhat differently to the other items at your disposal. Now you can piss all over the AI no matter what sort of scrape you get into. Kojima reminds me of Spielberg at his worst Admittedly it isn't a well-contructed set-piece to start with (Minority Report is an abomination), but just when you think you're ready for an action sequence you're fed some wry, half-baked comedy that thinks its cleverer than it is. Kojima is a pervert with a rotten attitude who can't resist the urge to put half-naked girls in his game, and nobody has the nerve to tell him to grow up.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 13, 2014 Author Posted August 13, 2014 I love it Currently playing some side missions in Ground Zeroes : peace: I can't wait for Phantom Pain to be released. Some of the side missions are great. You done the Déjà Vu one yet?
drahkon Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Some of the side missions are great. You done the Déjà Vu one yet? Haven't unlocked it yet. Hopefully I'll do it tonight @dwarf gourami you really hate Kojima and his games, don't you? :p Edited August 13, 2014 by drahkon
Sheikah Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 MGS3 was good. The stories of the other games are a bit too convoluted though.
dwarf Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Haven't unlocked it yet. Hopefully I'll do it tonight @dwarf gourami you really hate Kojima and his games, don't you? :p I hate his ego and his excess. He can make a game, a bloody good game at that, but he can't help but jeopardize it with his fluffly ideas and defective sense of humour. He isn't a master of his talents, he's a slave to his idle indulgences. It really irks me, there's an aura of smugness about him in the way he courts his following as well. He has the ability and the scaffolding around him to do so much more, BUT HE FUCKING TAINTS EVERYTHING. ARGH! *gnashing of teeth*
drahkon Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Well, I enjoy his games and the comedy in them. The person Kojima doesn't interest me that much, so no idea if he really is what you say.
dwarf Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Neither do I, but to look at him, he's the sort of person who'd ask his fans to address him 'Dear Leader'. The comedy clashes with his attempt to depict war as something grave and timeless. You can't have anything serious to say about war if your actual battles are about arousing men with scantily-clad carboard cut-out women. Edited August 13, 2014 by dwarf
Happenstance Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 I see Ground Zeroes and 5 are now also coming to Steam
Shorty Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 The thing is, all the silly, comedic stuff is optional. You can easily play all the way through the game without ever dropping a porn mag or even getting in a box. If you want to immerse yourself in a solid (heh), serious stealth game, you can. If you want to have a laugh, that's an option too. Not many other games have invested as much time and detail into simply giving you different ways to play. Personally, I'll probably not do anything of the stuff shown off in the demo, but I'll still enjoy the game.
Cube Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Steambox: (Note: May not be on "Steambox" aka Steam OS)
drahkon Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Some of the side missions are great. You done the Déjà Vu one yet? Unlocked it last night. Gave it a go, saw the photos, figured I was too tired to really take it all in and went to bed. But I'll do the mission tonight. : peace:
drahkon Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Sorry for the double post...but that Déjà Vu mission. @Hero\-of\-Time Did you enjoy it as much as I did? I fucking loved it. Sooooo good. Need to do it again and wipe away all the logos. : peace: What impressed me the most, though: This game serves as a demo, a brief look at what Phantom Pain has to offer. It still amazes me how dynamic the stealth and the action are in Ground Zeroes. And surely there are much, much more options/approaches you have in the "full" game... I cannot fucking wait.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 14, 2014 Author Posted August 14, 2014 Sorry for the double post...but that Déjà Vu mission. @Hero\-of\-Time Did you enjoy it as much as I did? I fucking loved it. Sooooo good. Need to do it again and wipe away all the logos. Yeah, I loved it to bits. It was such a blast from the past. Dem graphics and dat music.
