It's still instant alert for a whole base, just like Ground Zeroes. Watch any of the gameplay trailers and you see that.
You can prevent them from calling in reinforcements from other bases on the map. But it's not like you can prevent a base wide alert by shooting someone's radio like in 2 and 3,
Well, then it's still stupid as fuck.

The detection in Ground Zeroes seemed fine to me even without Reflex, at worst you need to kill 1-2 enemies and find somewhere to hide for a minute or 2, made a lot easier if you set some C4 somewhere. Kill enemies in your immediate area, find somewhere out of LoS to hide, detonate C4 and watch them run towards it instead of looking for you.
 
What is this from?

I knew I got it from here :)

I remember someone posted on this thread that the difficulty system will be like Peace Walker. I really hope it's not as easy as PW was tbh, because more times than not that was an absolute stroll.

I look forward to TPP's version of the 5-star vehicle boss missions, where the only way to S-rank them is to fulton like 2 dozen guys in a formation undetected so that the vehicle will open its door for you to sniper-tranq the driver. ;)

lol ofcourse not.

Peace Walker's AI was terrible, the enemies had mole vision.

I haven't found the real source but this one is from Reddit. I thought it would be useful for people avoiding spoilers even if the picture/source isn't confirmed.

true, the boxes look damn real.
its only 2 weeks left so it was bound to happen soon.
but i do wonder why they would send 2 ps4's along with the games.
unless they plan to review the consoles too.

edit: the mgs v box looks a bit off at the bottom though, unless they used a different type of box for that version might just be a prop for a shop
 
I forgot to mention one thing.
I wasn't so hyped about MGS back then. I've played MGS for weeks. On a PC (Yeah, I was a PC guy back then) and was never thinking about a sequel.
Then I bought a PS2 to play San Andreas and bought "some MGS" soon and it was 3.
The disc was never leaving my PS2 reader for a half a year and then I bought MGS2 and wasn't so overwhelmed.
MGS2 looks slick though.

Haha, even I got into MGS on a PC
with Rising, yeah I know pretty late.

I found MGS2 to be quite underwhelming at first till Ocelot started acting weird and Vamp showed up, then it started feeling more of a surreal horror stealth game than a tactical espionage action which required quite a bit of investment for long times. Even the soundtrack was unsettling at times. But then it paid off, in the best possible ways. As a game itself, I can see why you could find it underwhelming after playing MGS3 but when you spend some time with it analyzing things, it slowly transcends into a work of art. I don't think there is any game out there which did the same thing or had the similar impact on people. That said, if I had a choice about a game to play right now I'd play MGS3 but if I just had to just watch and wonder about, for me it'll definitely be MGS2.

whats the source of the pic? i guess real leaks are going to be happening soon.

The source is from instagram. He is the official marketing communications guy for Playstation Saudi Arabia according to google translate.

Yh now those were great fun. Anything involving the fulton system was awesome.

lol ofcourse not.

Peace Walker's AI was terrible, the enemies had mole vision.

Yh I don't expect it to be that easy given the huge advancements in the AI. But I just fear they'll make it a bit to easy seeing as they're trying to expand the MGS audience.

Reviewers start receiving their MGSV copies

Damn that looks awesome, now if only you could see whether the model was that CUH-1200 or still the previous model for sure, because there seems to be mixed answers now. Can anyone with twitter ask him?

Pretty sure the MGS bundle has the new PS4, I think Kojima or Imaizumi confirmed it a while back(I think).

They do look real, but I don't know what the standard procedures for reviewing these major titles is.

The original came from here:

http://instagram.com/p/6cQv7GRABb/

Still not sure who this guy is or the context though.

This is his Twitter:

http://twitter.com/mish7al

Thank you, this could make things interesting.

EDIT: Only a box, good news for people trying to avoid spoilers.
 
Yh Kojima did tweet it but on the GAF CUH-1200 thread someone asked Playstation FR whether it would be the old or new edition and they said old. So some people are thinking it may only be Japan that have the 1200.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1068368&page=25

That's.. odd. Why not make just one version of the bundle? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The amazon.fr page does have a single mention of the new model but it's from the QA section and a reply from July 8th.
Here is the official response obtained from Sony France:
"GenGP Hello,
Thank you for your recent handshake with PlayStation assistance.
Thank you for all your interest in the world of PlayStation. "
We inquired and we can confirm that the PS4 red Bundle collector Metal Gear Solid 5 will integrate the new version of PS4 (CUH-1200 model).

It'll be better if someone asks them about it once again.

Everyone relax:

It's just a display box ;-)


That's what the sentries thought too before Boss jumped out of it and knocked them out. :p

I was watching the E3 gameplay where Snake goes for the interpreter and i noticed something i didn't like tbh.
Right after Snake fultons the botanist and exits the building there is a sandstorm so he smokes the cigar for the time to pass.
I noticed then that the stunned soldier who was with the botanist skilled hostage was still unconscious, even after a full day pass with the cigar.
:S

Well, maybe the time he's unconscious is bound to real time.

Pretty minor complaint in the grand scheme of things. Could be something that's fixed, or could be a side-effect of how time passage is being fast forwarded.

Might have screwed up a lot of things if the world actually passed you by as you smoked, smoke for 24 hours and all the NPCs in the zone have to go through 24hours of realtime AI/Pathing in 20secs. Time in Ground Zeroes was messed up enough as it is, go through sneaking around for 5mins and get caught, reset checkpoint and even though you're in a location that took you 4mins to get to, all the NPCs are back in their original spots..Is weird seeing it at the start of some missions, ride in on a truck, restart at checkpoint and you're inside the base and watch the truck zone in.

Would also make it trickier to find a spot to hide while you did it.
