The few things that bothered me about MGS2 was one “Why are you late with your status report?” and two you had to find the node in every room if you wanted radar in that room (of course don’t bother on the higher difficulties of course) but overall it was top notch gameplay at its time. MGS3 fixed the flaws in 2 and made it even better. If anything, the only thing that irked me in 3 was having to pause a lot and the Shagohod sequence just goes on and on.
HOLY SHIT…
I’ve been thinking about this some random time ago. Wasn’t it weird and fucked up that Campbell randomly had Rose as his girlfriend, even if it was fake?
lol…
Uhhh, no. You wish.
~K.
When I first played MGS4 it made me go you gotta be shitting me Kojima.
Then it was fine I guess when it was explained.
But still Campbell probably hit it behind Raiden’s back lol.
After playing FOB mode i eagerly await the fox engine PS4 MGS2 remake
And yea fighting volgin and the shagohod 5 times was too much
Shagohod battle isn’t a high point of the game, sadly.
The fight with Volgin was dope. You finally get to 1v1 electricity-wielding Ivan Drago.
Sahaelanthropus
Spoiler
Fuck that thing. :mad: I keep getting killed at the reflex mode part where it just one-shots you. I think I know what to do though. I saw that flying creepy girl, so I guess I gotta hit her?
Yeah you do nigga…its not a girl its psycho mantis. Have your grenade launcher reloaded n ready.
You can shoot him with just a pistol, hell the Tranq will work just fine to.
Loling at the fact mantis is more op as a child than an adult
Anyone else feel like Psycho Mantis was just nostalgia fan service in this game?
[details=Spoiler]He took that parasite vial from Venom Snake that didnt actually explode when he threw it. And then did…nothing with it. I mean he showed up a bunch of times and didnt actually do anything of value outside of animating Volgin’s Corpse, and a nearly nonfunctional Sahelanthropus, He was just kinda…there. He never spoke. Hell he was more quiet than the character actually NAMED Quiet. He never read my Hard Drive for saved games. He was just there for people to go “OH SHIT NIGGA THAT’S PSYCHO MANTIS!!!”
Honestly Liquid was the same way. It was actually pointless fluff. I mean from the point that you bring him back to base, till when he floats in a way in a giant nuclear capable robot, his entire presence in the game amounts to:
He ran away from the project Cipher was running to Africa somewhere
He lead some child soldiers
Go beat up by Venom Snake, taken back to Motherbase.
Gets beat up by Venom. Gets beat up by Venom again. Get’s beat up by Ocelot. Get’s beat up by Venom one more time.
Rage quits mother base and steals a robot.
Nothing else happens.
Liquid couldve been left out of the game completely and nothing of value wouldve been lost.[/details]
you guys realize how “small” this game actually is? even old-ass games like game syphon filter 1 and 2 had lot more content. they literally didn’t finish 2/3 of TPP. diamond(pun intended) coated shit is still shit.
But it is expensive shit. Expensive enough to not be completed.
Thanks Konami. Chapter 3 will be a Pachinko Machine in Tokyo somewhere.
A lot of the game has this. Volgin means nothing in this game. I know I’m not the only one who expected someone else from the past to show up. The trailers made the game seem epic. The best thing this game does is gameplay and graphics. Nothing else. The highlight of the story is Big Boss/Venom Snake. MGSV doesn’t have anything like the story between The Boss and Snake or Raiden and The Patriots. I mean, Liquid Ocelot engaging in monologues in MGSIV was more interesting.
Personally, I don’t care for the online aspect.
playing mgo2 now
dem AIM feelz are stronk…doubt it will never be this accurate again lol…
Ended up getting the game for free like 2 weeks ago, haven’t played it in a week. First Metal Gear I didn’t just flat out run through like a crack head. Just feels kinda meh
If the gameplay didn’t carry the game, I’d say that it is a complete disappointment. I disagree with the notion that it doesn’t feel like an MGS game, but there is no way I can disagree with the disappointment of the story being left the way it was. In current state, Liquid and Psycho Mantis didn’t need to be in the game, since they didn’t serve any real purpose. Same thing with Paz. There was no character development - nothing. It was just like saying “hey, here’s some fan service without actually bringing anything new to the story.”
Huey’s storyline felt like it was cut off at the knees and then discarded, like there was way more to his story than was being told, but then they just said “fuck it” and [details=Spoiler]had him exiled and that was that.[/details]
And Quiet’s ending? What the fuck.
The whole story is just a bunch of loose ends.
If I had to summarize Quiet’s Ending it goes to
Spoiler
FUCK HUEY, if that mofo never did that mutation shit, Quiet would still be alive.
i was pissed when i found out you couldn’t use the water pistol to fight volgin
You can remove his fire with the water pistol, takes like 20 shots though lol
