One of my favourite video game series referencing my favourite song. I like that Kojima's a Bowie fan.
Feels good.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Can't wait for Tuesday.

 

[William]

Cant wait, this is a great OT! Watching the 500 hour stream over on Twitch the last view days has got me ridiculously excited for this.

 

[ckohler]

Epic.

I'm going to be watching my friend play. I've never been a big MSG player but I do enjoy watching these games. So cinematic.

 

[Isotope]

IT'S ALMOST TIME.

 

[Darkgran]

Hell yes!

Great OT

 

[Az]

Great thread. Cant wait

 

[AAMARMO]

Looking good OT

 

[Kindekuma]

Dawg this OT is really damn good. Holy smokes.

 

[Alienous]

The community didn't make the OT.

True, but who is it made for?

 

[DNAbro]

Awesome OT Dawg. Can't wait till Tuesday.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Pre-load done, now we wait.

Should add the CE and PS4 console, btw.

 

[Original Man]

That's right folks. Portable ops is canon! Thanks for not ignoring it . Great OT

 

[NullPointer]

At long, long, long fucking last.

And wonderful OP, Diamond Dawg. Great work.

 

[Roussow]

What's the subtitle a reference to? it doesn't ring a bell.

 

[MavFan619]

Looks great Mr. Dawg. Subscribing and revisiting once I have a few hours played.

 

[Mohonky]

Is this going to be worth playing even if I only ever finished MGS2? I was thinking I might try and give this series another go.

My biggest reluctance is not knowing the story and whether this game is going to be another MGS with stupidly long cutscenes constantly interrupting gameplay....

 

[Apathy]

You know kaz, we really are the metal gear solids.. Wait did I do it right?

 

[Falchion]

Great OT, can't wait.

 

[Cramoss]

Taking this one.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

I can't believe it's already been 3 years since the Phantom Pain reveal.

Hype through the roof.

 

[Falifax]

Can't wait to optically consume this video game.

 

[PrinceOfWhatever]

I thought the community agreed on a subtitle.

'A Hideo Kojima Game'

I am proud of him just like I used the title I wanted for OT4, he used his title for his OT.

I think thats safe to assume.

 

[Choomp]

'A Hideo Kojima Game'

That might've been a popular choice but Dawg ultimately makes the final decision. Still did a good job giving Kojima a good thanks in the OT.

 

[Blastoise]

fookin finaly

 

[Ibuki]

True, but who is it made for?

Not for honor, but for youuuuu

 

[ZeroX03]

I thought the community agreed on a subtitle.

'A Hideo Kojima Game'

This is better.

And it sounds like we see his name more than enough in the game.

 

[CertifiedFP]

One more bloody day...

Could someone eyepat- Oh, face is too small for it to be worthwhile.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

We're so close I can taste it.

It would really help if you've played MGS3, Peace Walker and Ground Zeroes or at least know their stories. The game apparently has much less cutscenes and longer stretches of gameplay in between due to the open world.

 

[Broken Joystick]

What's the subtitle a reference to? it doesn't ring a bell.

It's a David Bowie song that's in the game. But also relates to one of the characters.

There's a casset tape with the name on it in one of the trailers.

 

[dark_prinny]

The time has come.

 

[Yoshichan]

You even got un-juniored for this?! Unbelievably awesome thread, Dawg!

This post was directed by Hideo Kojima.

 

[Sylverstone14]

Great OT! MGS-GAF will be having fun this week for sure.

 

[SargerusBR]

*Notices PO in the OT*

You did good Dawg.

 

[Numb]

We in there.

 

[Pachimari]

I'm not ready. I really ain't.

 

[Storm360]

Been playing this for the last few days, it's something special guys. Pick it up

 

[PrinceOfWhatever]

True, but who is it made for?

not the community per se since that's what the community thread is for.

 

[JehutyRunner]

What's the subtitle a reference to? it doesn't ring a bell.

It's the name of a song from David Bowie, who's previous album before the aforementioned song the album came from was called Diamond Dogs.

(Hope no one saw what this post was before --- had a brain fart!)

 

[Octavianus]

I think thats safe to assume.

Yeah I know. I think I first noticed it when Major Zero went by 'Major Tom' at first, before changing his call sign, all the way back in mgs3.

 

[| Praxis |]

Love the OT, such a shame we're not all on the same page regarding release but still, can't wait for Tuesday.

 

[Metaroo]

God I'm so ready for this.

 

[MMaRsu]

Aww yeah finally the OT goes up! Afer about 15 missions and a whole tons of sode ops I have to say this game is amazing and yes it does top MGS3 gameplay wise. Story wise im not so sure yet but its intriguing so far. Yhe mission where you have to

Spoiler

blow up the oil refinery

was a big standout to me. There are a bunch of missions like that and they are all great.

 

[Jb]

Game's everything I'd hoped so far. Biggest departure from the core MGS formula and better for it.

 

[Kindekuma]

I'm not ready. I really ain't.

We never were, yet we are at the same time!

 

[skLaFarebear]

One more day.

 

[xxracerxx]

Been playing this for the last few days, it's something special guys. Pick it up
