god damn it is it ET or PT

I'm not sleeping that night either way but an extra three hours of play before work the next morning would be sweet

I'm still hoping the release time on Steam gets bumped to midnight, either ET or PT. As of now it's scheduled for standard steam release time (1pm ET).

Accidentally posted this in the GamesCom thread and meant to post it here:

This is probably old news to most of you, but for those PC Ground Zeroes players, ya'll should definitely check out this mod if you haven't:

http://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearsolidv/mods/11/

This increases LOD greatly and the draw distance is a lot better. It also fixes the over-the-top DoF (in my opinion) on the PC version, and brings it down the PS4 levels, for more detail in cutscenes and first person aiming (the tranq gun isn't a giant blur anymore!)


It requires a few steps, here's how i did it:

Download GzsTool from here: http://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearsolidv/mods/8/? and extract it to your metal gear data folder under steamapps\common.
Drag and drop data_02.g0s onto GzsTool and wait for it to finish.
It'll make a folder called data_02.
In that folder, go to Fox\Scripts\Gr and copy the gr_init_dx11.lua file from the mod you downloaded before (http://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearsolidv/mods/11/)
Then back out and drag and drop the data_02.g0s.xml onto GzsTool and it will rebuild the g0s file with the modification. Start GZ and you should be good to go!

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

Fix this shit DICE.

The original RoboCop is the shit! One of my favourite movies since when I was 7 years old :)

How old were you when he tore Cain's brain outta the robot and smashed it?

So ... any Snatcher fans?
The robot assistant thing was in MGS4 but painted black.
What are the chances of Policenauts fan trans? It seems Japanese imports these days are less expanisve than the American version.

Alright, I'm too lazy to finish PW. Got the normal ending then found Zadornov three times and got bored doing side ops. What's a good video to see all of the endgame story stuff? I tried a search but the ones I found all start with Paz losing control of Zeke, I was hoping for one that included whatever story led to that point (if any).

Does anyone else wonder if Kojima is fan of the orginal Robocop>

Everyone is a fan of the original Robocop.

I'm going to pick Dead Cell because Fatman has my number.

I think the Cobra unit were the best boss fights out of all these MGS units.

You know right after you beat The Pain and leave the cave, there's a small alcove in the side of the mountain that's loaded with live claymores and some minor items/ammo?

I was just running towards that alcove but it wasn't in view yet when I heard an explosion. Ran in to find the mines exploded and 5 dead bats waiting for me.

Something must've set them off and killed all of the bats in there. Probably a rat.

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

Yeah i got that but i didn't really like it.. :(

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.

Don't get me wrong guys, i understand that they've gone with that choice after experimenting. It just seemed to me a little bit off...

Fix this shit DICE.

I don't get you bro, sorry :/

We're halfway through this month long wait. ALMOST THERE!

Also I can't wait to see what unit will be in TPP. I'm guessing there will be a mix of Skull and XOF?

Same, but I can't help but wonder whether there is an actual "unit" as bosses? So far the XOF have been regular soldiers and the Skulls are basically super powered clones.
I do hope there is a unit though. Maybe we will be the ones who create the unit? For Outer Heaven?

I like FOXHOUND the most.

For Elite Grunts, you can't beat the Tengus.

Better get that coolant spray ready because they will slap your shit.
 
Working my way through MGS3. Just found out Sokolov is over in Volgin's fortress. I think I remember that means that my fight with The End is coming up? Either way, I'm cutting it closer than I would have liked, trying to replay all the games before V drops. If I manage to finish 3, and beat 4, PW, and GZ in just two weeks, I'll be shocked. But hey, it should be possible. Back to the game!

I bet no one picks Dead Cell.

Dead cell got solidus tho. Dat voice, dat swag cape, dat p90 and dual katanas.


Personally my fav units are:

Liquids foxhound >> cobra unit >> dead cell >>>> bbcorp

Bb corp was in theory a cool idea and shinkawa did some fantastic designs. But the lack of personality of the beauties and the similar stories made them the most boring. Also it didnt help drebin just narrated them with a vo in a codec call. How uninspired.

Compare that to sniper wolfs death or the end dying after elapsed time or george fucking sears zooming around fuckin shit up at the end of mgs2.
