Yeah, i think it's just the horse reigns. I think the mask is just big boss's mind blocking out her image. It looks like she's wearing the black pancho/coat thing she was wearing in MGS3.

I doubt it, It looks like a man's figure, especially if it's the same one as the glowing eyes one.
Uniform looks similar to Volgin or Big Boss or Python so it could just as easily be a new character wearing a FOX issue suit.

If it's anyone, it's clearly the Boss... Whenever there's a horse in MGS, it's the Boss, one way or another...

Yeah. Im thinking that Ground Zeroes is actually the prologue, then something happens and big boss gets captured or whatever. wakes up in phantom pain trailer.



try not to get too upset. Life is too short to let other people effect you so much. especially on the internet.

I agree. We've seen the early parts of previous MGS games involve some sort of failure or disaster. A hostage dying minutes after meeting Snake, RAY getting hijacked, Snake getting his arm broken, etc. I think something bad probably happens to Snake when he's at that base trying to rescue Chico. MSF is forced out of Latin America as well and they end up in a country in Africa. And of course the whole mission becomes more complex and expands as they uncover what's really going on (eliminate a special unit, stop a nuke launch, save the world, etc.). The Ground Zeroes trailer made me think that the burned face man wants Snake to come and get Chico, like he set a trap for him.

Everything after the Virtuous Mission in MGS3 was a coma dream and this is when Snake wakes up. His arm got so busted up by the Boss that they had to take it off.

Eh, Kojima can retcon the series to the fourth dimension and back as long as he doesn't touch

Maybe the title refers to not being able to experience the pain being experienced by your virtual avatar, and the way this game is set up makes it a more vicarious experience for the player.

I just realised something.

This/GZ will have a new version of Metal Gear Online right? MGO was amazing. My favourite online game this gen. The focus on teamwork and being tactical was really awesome.

It's confirmed to have some kind of online component and it's being done by KojiPro LA. Whether it'll be like MGO or more like other games remains to be seen.

It probably will, unfortunately. The days of cool VR missions in MGS games is long gone....

For multiplayer it would be extremely neat if there was a game mode where there is a commander who can build new facilities and add to your team's base. The other players on the team must capture marked points to increase the number of resources that the commander can use.

For example, your team captures point A. As commander, you build upgraded barracks that improve spawn times. More resources come in. As commander you can upgrade the new barracks you built so the players have more ammo when they spawn or you can build a new armory that adds more weapons to use.
 
Here's a theory (sorry if someone already came up with this); this takes place after Metal Gear and before Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, after Solid Snake supposedly killed Big Boss. The defeat could've left Big Boss in a coma and here we are with this.

Big Boss was 60 years old in Metal Gear, that doesn't look like a 60 year old man.
