Just one more week until the game is out. I am excited. Been watching some Metal Gear streams those last days.
Just tried Ground Zeroes on my aging PC and I was amazed to see how well it ran! I went and preordered The Phantom Pain on Steam after that. Canāt wait!

When MGS5 is released, I can see this thread becoming loaded with opinion, information and picture sharing. Especially base design sharing! and multiplayer/Forward-Operating-Base chatter.
No real confidence in the story beingā¦ sensicalā¦ at this pointā¦
but the gameplay looks fun so Iāll be playing it when I have the time
More like Metal Gear Solid no thanks.
The plot has been dubious from Day 1, with every trailer introducing something more idiotic than the last each time, Ground Zeroes controlled like shit and became boring if you played it as a stealth game, and the prospect of supporting Komani right now by giving them sales is something Iām pretty adamant in not doing. Iāve brought one Capcom came since they killed Megaman(And that was Ace Attorney, come on), I can do the same for Konami.
āLiterally Metal Gear REXā is absolutely fucking stupid and just pandering to Nostalgia boners(which I hate) at the cost of completely fucking the lore of the game, just let it have itās fucking Super Robot form and get rid of that pointless REX form, I mean shit, the REX form is already fucking with the super robot form by ruining the head.
Speaking of Nostalgia pandering bullshit, whoops thatās what half this trailer was, just a a slapped together nostalgia trip.
Iām not going to fall for cheap marketing tricks like that just for the sake of buying a subpar game that has a very real chance of shitting on Big Boss character.
Iām a big Metal Gear fan, I brought a PS3 for MGS4 even after Iād already played it on someone elses PS3. So this game looking like a steaming pile to the point where I wonāt get it doesnāt make me happy.

Pretty much mirrors my thoughts exactly.
MGS4 shouldnāt have happened (even if it was great), but this is just moneygrabbing.
This video is pretty much my entire knowledge of the franchise now.

Time flies for me when I play MGSV:TPP. Itās so great and so much to do constantly.

Iāve been playing quite a bit, but propably not as much as most others, since I have a different way how I feel about games, so I am taking many breaks. Also the loading times on PS4 are horrible, often more than a minute. Definitly not what you would expect from a PS4, it often takes like about 10 second to just load when you open the menu too.

Iām really loving MGS5 at the moment. Playing the PC version. The control scheme got some getting used to since its strangely a Xbox port, the tutorials keep telling me Xbox controls and they changed somethings from Ground Zeroes so I had to go through the āhitting every key to see what it doesā phase. Especially using the 1,2,3,4 keys for changing weapons instead of G.
as a Playstation player I always press square instead to fulton since there is a square in the fulton symbol and it sometimes gets me into trouble.
on another note, the loading times went down by a lot, when I switched to offline mode. Guess I know what to not use anymore.
Playing on PC whenever I have time between work and study, and loving it! Itās everything Iāve wanted so far.

I havenāt yet been able to get online mode to work, either to maintenance or high server load. Iām waiting to make use of my Ground Zeroes save port.
it worked yesterday, but it seems like server is having problems again today, which sucks, because Iād at least love to get online for the daily reward

Iām enjoying this substantially more than GZ and 4. This is a really good modernization on Peacewalker. My biggest concern was level design, but this world is pretty well made, surprisingly. Itās still not better than 3 in my books, but as a PW without the area-to-area loading nonsense, this is great.
Damn, reallyā¦? Xbone takes about 10 seconds max for load times.
Canāt say the same for the secret āmask the world loadingā load times with the helicopter riding in- But yeah.

well, at least when I was connected to the servers. Might just be a problem, because the servers are really instable right now. When I play in offline mode, I have just like some seconds, which is totally fine.
I played metal gear solid: integral (Japan exclusive) with very easy mode, with the effect of very easy mode, the player started the game with mp5 w/unlimited ammo, so when was started I begun to destroy them all. (Iām sorry that Iām not good enough in this game 
) And For now, Iām still waiting for MGS5: the phantom pain.
