And Japan just keep making their games easier and easier to play.

Just Japan? "Normal" modes in western AAA games are piss easy these days, almost without exception.

Making your game hard (or even moderately challenging) mostly just results in worse review scores.

 

[Murkrow]

Best cocktease ever

The cock is Solid, that's for sure.

 

[UnluckyKate]

these eyes. this chicken is having some

 

[TheSpoiler]

I never played MGS4 but it always seemed to me like the silliness in MGS was generally relegated to weird easter eggs that you rarely came across. Now it's a part of core gameplay mechanics.

No, there is a bunch of silly things in the MGS series that directly impact the game. Even small things like using the back of a CD case to find Meryl's codec were in the first game.

 

[Parakeetman]

I am so wearing that thing from start to finish if I can.

You have to choose to use it, and you have to die to get it, no? Consider it a Super Guide mechanic. You probably lose points by using it.

That chicken is either dead tired or high as a kite.

I'd argue it's more about accessibility for the mainstream crowd than review scores.

I dig it =D

Hey, guys, do you like my new avatar? Neither do I, but I made it to remember this day -- to honor the sacrifice made by our MGSGAF Diamond Dawgs. The Great Fiddle of 2014.

Agreed!

What? Every AAA game that comes out is "easy". (besides from software is japanese) also metal gear has always had a crutch for less skilled players.

Kept you cluckin', huh?

Dawg meet Chicken

Updated OP with new info!

@JunkerHQNet:
Looks like you can wear the chicken cap at the same time as goggles or gas mask. Shinkawa's design sheet asks that they not interfere

@JunkerHQNet:
If you get spotted a lot, a message pops up asking you if you want to use the chicken cap

looking good love

Thank you! I feel less like a hot pile of garbage now.

He will still find a way to fuck it up hahahahahahaha.

Hahaha! :-D No doubt; I cannot WAIT to see it in that Afghanistan cutscene, which Ocelot demands that Snake "let the legend come back to life." Gonna be so good!!

 

[TyrantII]

When you stand after crouching an egg should roll away on the ground.

Bwaaaak

Dawg meet Chicken

Dawg becomes Dawk.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Pfff, filthy casuals.

 

[op_ivy]

i love zany MGS, but this takes it too far. bonus points for making bad players look ridiculous though.

 

[Gnome Scat]

That is Rey Mysterio's mask. That's a WWE product.

I think he put it on for fun. If it's anything like Rey Mysterio, it means by using it you're going to blow your knees out and be injured all the fucking time.

I remember him from when I was a kid, his move was the 619...

Spoiler

Release date June 19th confirmed.

MGS3 had the EZ gun and all sorts of different crutches. I don't see the problem when its completely optional.

 

[Randam]

wait, what happend when you wear oyama face paint when you kill

Spoiler

The Boss

in MGS3?

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Goddamn, the game keeps looking better and better.

 

[Love Deterrence]

Goddamn, the game keeps looking better and better.

It does!! It's stunning. Even seeing this game with a minor adjustment (such as the cap) can change things dramatically. Detail is insane. But yeah, I'm glad we at least got screens of it!

 

[Rymuth]

This. The humor of MGS was tongue in cheek and you had to actively look for the immersion breaking gags (Such as the kerotans)

This is just obnoxious and it's kind of bordering on self-sabotage.

 

[Blobbers]

And if the game detects that you've worn the cap for at least 2+ hours in total in SP it makes your MGO avatars perma-wear one and occasionally adds clucking sounds to random bullet shots from your weapons.

 

[Betty]

MGS3 had the EZ gun and all sorts of different crutches. I don't see the problem when its completely optional.

But it's too zany! Games should be super serious, just like all the MGS games have been.

? It's an optional in-game item.

Yeah, can't wait to see a HQ version of it.


Also, Murkrow made a avatar of Chicken Snake if someone wants to use it.

watched some gameplay a few days ago: The really need to add trees and grass reacting to the wind the helicopter makes.
like in far cry 4.

 

[Foffy]

C-can my icon be all chicken'd up? I was there for this cock tease.

 

[marrec]

I'm glad only a few of us nerds are needlessly upset by this. Makes me want to play the game more. So good.

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

They played us like a damn

So this is like Ninja Dog? Noice.

It's a really cool addition. I'm glad it can be used online, as well!

 

[vocab]

This game is going to have pretty massive problems with tone, then? Rape and child soldiers on one hand.....chicken hats and fultoned sheep on the other.

Double zeta gundam syndrome.

Metal Gear Solid syndrome.

 

[Marvel]

There should be a Sin Cara mask for botching stealth so much.

 

[Ashtar]

If it's completely optional I don't understand why some people choose to be upset about it. It'd be one thing if it was like instinct mode in hit man where (afaik) it was impossible to beat some missions with out it. If not then *shrug*
