Metal Gear SOLID Thread: Snake? SNAAAAKE!

TTS wasnt bad yeah i said it

tranq gun broke the game tho

First person view really broke the game. You dont even have to move to beat Ocelot. If you stand in your starting position and aim at him in first person, he won’t start running around. You can beat him in like ten seconds with headshots.

New Gameplay!

Also, Quiet’s VA is really cute

Quiets model they based her off is so blah. I really hate the “lets make these characters look like irl people” vibe. Ocelot looks shitty.

I’m actually not understanding Ocelot’s inclusion in this game at all. In all the demo’s he’s giving BB direction/tips
like he’s never done any of this before. It’s pissing me off.

Buying a 900 series Nvidia card will net you The Phantom Pain instead of Arkham Knight now.

In Metal Gear Solid 1, the stairs part is the ABSOLUTE worst part of the game in my opinion.

Which stairs part? There are two towers and they are two distinctly different experiences. If you’re talking about the first tower then yea it’s not terribly good. Horrible camera angle, and on harder diffs the best strat is to just piss through your flash grenades then actually fight anyone.

First Tower yeah, complete pain and it takes so long.

Yea it kind of sucks. Worst part in the game imo tho is everything to do with the Shape Memory Alloy Key Card. They make you back track from the command room to the bottom of Rex and get the card, then climb back up. Then they make you climb back down and back track up the elevator to cool the card. Then you have to ride the elevator, climb rex and use the card. Then you have to climb ride down Rex, ride the TWO elevators, then heat the card, then ride the elevators again…look you know where this is going.

It’s a shitastic form of padding jam packed full of long codec convos, short elevator and ladder climbing cinematics you can’t skip, and is just over all a fucking chore. The first Tower Stairs kind of suck but once you get to the top it’s over. With activating Rex it’s a triple dose of repetitive padding and it’s boring.

You and me both, felt like that and grabbing the PSG1 were done to “increase” the actual playtime if you skipped cinemas/Codecs…game would be over in an hour lol

Heh I actually don’t mind the run back for the PSG1, but yea it serves pretty much the exact same purpose the Key Card thing does.

Set of stairs with Cameras is way worse. Shit is actually gamebreaking under certain conditions.

I think some of the hidden Claymores are pretty annoying too. Like right before the elevator to fight Raven. And in some if the rooms around the second Sniper Wolf fight. I get that its probably just trolling but still kind of annoying.

Even with its flaws, still one of the sickest games ever made.

I was surprised by how short MGS2 was though. Playing it and watching all the cut scenes took like an hour longer than MGS1. I thought I remembered it being longer.

I started MGS3 recently and I’m having a hard time getting into it this time. Looks great on the HD collection but I don’t know. I’m just kind of bored with it. It was never my favorite game in the series anyway, I much prefer futuristic Metal Gear.

Claymores are super underrated imo, if anything once you learn you can crawl and pick them up, they’re useful as fuck in boss fights, especially Vulcan Raven’s.

I’m gonna go on a MGS marathon today I guess.

And whenever you have to deal with gun cameras, Chaff Grenades are reliable as hell, one of the best weapons in the game.

It’s not really about the use of the weapon but the placement of them in weird random places.

Liquid is a tough bastard.

You fight him on the Hind D, you fight him on Metal Gear Rex, you fight him hand-to-hand afterwards, and lastly you fight him during a car chase.
All that, and FoxDie virus took his life. He is a nemesis.

Trollololol.

Oh oh oh, you forgot to mention the chance/part where you can accidentally lose your goddamn card to a rat and have to chase the little bastard all on the bottom areas of the Rex hanger to kill it to get it back, and THEN do the above.

^ and having to wade through toxic crap to retrieve that key card.

The chemistry teacher I had in my first year of high school looked like MGS4 Ocelot, minus the glasses and trench coat.
