It's my game of the show. No doubt. Looks amazing.

Metal Gear Solid V (PS3/360/PS4/XBO/Maybe PC) - Extended 9 minute E3 trailer
- Thread starter duckroll
- Start date
Eli is Liquid Snake. 100% its Liquid Snake. In the middle east we dont hunt foxes, we hunt jackels. Kids wearing Jackel teeth necklace. Plus that tag line about cursing his fate. Sounds like Liquid.
Clear as day.

I'm guessing Ground Zeroes consists of Snake infiltrating the Cypher Base to rescue Chico and Paz, everything gets done fucked up as Mother Base is destroyed while he's gone, he gets back to evacuate everyone, gets his arm blown off somehow, and goes into a coma.

This trailer was awesome!
The graphic content made me a bit queasy but it's nice to see the game broach some controversial subjects.

Amazing
This is the Metal Gear that I was waiting for since MGS3.

Still listening to the podcast...
"Code Talker reminded me of BEEEP.
-Good call, actually: it is BEEEP.
-Oh, really?!"
Also, something about how Kojima will probably need he services of Quiet's actress again in the future? In a sequel, perhaps? Sniper Wolf retcon incoming?
Personally, I'm hoping they'll keep things simple and merge the two, indeed.
Ground Zeroes (Chico and Paz are rescued, Mother Base is attacked by Skull Face) -> hospital scene (Punished Snake is helped by "Ishmael" and then Ocelot) -> Kaz's rescue -> etc.
Plus, prosthetics.

Also, the official site makes no mention of a "Ground Zeroes", as far as I can see. Even that one trailer is just labelled "MG25th Trailer".

I would think so.
Ground Zeroes (Chico and Paz are rescued, Mother Base is attacked by Skull Face) -> hospital scene (Punished Snake is helped by "Ishmael" and then Ocelot) -> Kaz's rescue -> etc.
Considering he pretty much was a talking head, that's not much of a problem, in my opinion.
Plus, prosthetics.
Ocelot come across like Liquid Snake's Alfred (in MGS1), so maybe we'll see the start of that relationship there. Maybe we'll get an understanding (MGS4 Spoilers)
, and some allusions to (MGS2 Spoilers)
.
Also, Elijah seems to fit Liquid Snake.
of how Ocelot knows Liquid so well he can impersonate him
Ocelot having his arm cut off, and using Liquid's; "Seems like you two are a perfect blood match"
Also, Elijah seems to fit Liquid Snake.
Me too, gotta say the trailer gave me a weird uncomfortable feeling.
Never had that for any other videogame.

i'm fine with somebody else voicing big boss. but if solid snake makes an appearance in here (he shouldn't but if they do some corny flashforward for fanservice) it has to be david hayter. it MUST
great trailer. almost made me forget the stink that was mgs4. i'm kind of worried about kojima tackling on the subject of child soldiers. i don't think he can handle it

Quite, but only as much as most Metal Gear Solid trailers.

Yeah, this sounds about right.
Now for my own crazy theory: In Ground Zeroes you play as Big Boss, voiced by Hayter. I think all the English footage that has been shown so far has been from the Phantom Pain, so we haven't seen Sutherland voice Snake in Ground Zeroes.
In Phantom Pain, Snake will be voiced by Sutherland. Either because of Big Boss's voice being changed due to the trauma and coma or extra special tinfoil hat theory: because you are playing as a clone brainwashed into thinking he is Big Boss. This would explain why Big Boss isn't seen with a horn and prosthetic arm later in the timeline.
Imagine the reactions after all this Hayter-gate stuff if you start up the game to hear Hayter's Snake after all. And then when the voice actor changes midway through the game, that should be the clue that something strange is going on.
Sounds like something Kojima would pull
Pretty sure that line was a reference to his time in Iraq with the British SAS (and his subsequent capture and brainwashing, if that's canon).
Yeah, ehm, i think it will retain its cheesyness big time, which i think it's not entirely a bad thing.
Yup, Gulf War (1990 - 1991).
I don't think he can "handle it" in a serious way either, but it's not the first taboo he faces, since MGS has always been about war, you had genocide and other shit all throughout the series, i think this time it'll just be more graphical and crude, and that's what he was worried about.
You don't think having different voice actors would pretty much ruin that one twist right away?
(ans it looks like Ôtsuka will voice Snake both before and after coma, in Japan)
Damn. I want to watch.... but I know how much of the story MGS trailers can show.

I don't think it's destroyed when he's gone, looks like the Paz thing will be a prelude to the attack.
They're a bit quiet on dates atm.
God, I wish. Would make me purchase a PS4 day one.

I hope it will be able to accurately depict the horrors of war while at the same time keeping the series's trademark cheesiness.
I really hope gaming as a medium can move on from glorifying war and violence and that this game will be a step in that direction.
BEEEP = The End?

Well they could disguise it as being because of the trauma/coma at first. If they do a good enough job of it they would be able to throw some people off.
Has Phantom pain footage with Ôtsuka been shown?
Edit: But I did say it's a crazy theory
Would be fun to see it play out though.
MGS2 is my favourite Metal Gear so I love that kind of mindfucky stuff
Doesn't seem right, but they talked about how he's supposed to be over 100, and I can't think of many characters who would fit the bill...
Just this.
The Sorrow!
Man, that one is even deader than dead!
Kojima could bring him back! Well, let's think of someone who was a code breaker in WW2. Was there a character like that? It almost seems like Zero. Of course it isn't Zero.
If that doesn't impress you, you're a hard man to please and must have been disappointed by everything from the show this year.
That song was cheezy? You must have HATED snake eaters them then, that was pure cheese all the way through(though I loved it).

You know I was kinda dissapointed in this trailer. IT'S NOT BAD. But I was wanting another one like we got with the reveal.
Regardless still top game of show

Perhaps
(Potential story context synopsis)
Big Boss is sent out to rescue Chico, and Paz. He gets to Camp Omega, infiltrates the base, gets to Chico. Chico reveals that he gave Skull Face details about Mother Base (earning the cassette player, playing the traitor) , and Big Boss loses his shit, and begins to choke him. Boss recognizes that decorated war hero's don't CQC children to death, and relents. He rescues Chico and further infiltrates, rescuing Paz. Boss brings her and Chico back to Mother Base, where Paz begins to convulse. They try to operate and find the 'Peace' package, which is followed by an attack on Mother Base by Skull Face. Mother Base's occupants are killed, and Mother Base falls into the ocean. Kaz and Big Boss escape in a helicopter, with Big Boss distraught at the carnage. Perhaps the helicopter is shot down, but events occur that leave Big Boss in a coma. He wakes up after 9 years, and 'Ishmael' (a projection of his mind) leads him outside of the complex. Ocelot helps Big Boss escape when he crashes an ambulance, and after a period of time takes him to Afghanistan where Kaz is held captive. Kaz has, perhaps, been interrogated for the entirety of those 9 years, loosing limbs in the process. Big Boss rescues Kaz, and along with Ocelot they exact revenge of Cipher.
I assumed that was Paz pre-bomb extraction, but then again...
You could argue that making war fun to play is in a way glorifying it.
But i guess that's a more complicated question.
