Moby Dick was about a last hunt. Maybe it's the last MGS game by Kojima.

Coma. That's also why his legs aren't working at the beginning.
Coma?
kojima never do that, he is very worried about the details.
And they didn't announce but the title says....

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Some are saying he was never in Coma and secretly agreed to give DNA. Others say that Zero took his DNA during Coma.
All I can say is that there may be two different parallels and both might be right. Also, his arm missing maybe a throwback to Ocelot losing his and taking Liquid's.

Was he ever meant to be a medical doctor? I thought he was an energy scientist or something,.

we've seen agnis philosophy, samaritan, watch_dogs and star wars.
if ground zeroes and phantom pain are what's coming out of japan for next-gen, i'm already disappointed. then again, i don't have a single doubt they're current-gen games (at least the footage that's been shown).
lol, funny.

Mind control/simulation? All of that weird sequence could just be in his mind?

The person on the right is Kyle Cooper, a noted title sequences designer who worked on MGS2 & 3.

Same soldiers as Ground Zeroes

Yep. Kojima's work:

Medical surgeon equipment, doctor on board, car crashes, guns and ammunition = Phantom Pain = MGS5.

At this point, there's no chance he'll ever stop.
Good work. It's definitely MGS related, but I'm still waiting to see how GZ and 5 relate to each other, or even if GZ is a full game or not. Interesting to see! Either way,

So it seems this might be some weird experiment that causes him to hallucinate somehow. The flaming guy is definitely not Volgin, and the guy with the bandages might indeed be the bad guy from the other trailer.
Remember also the weird flashes in the first trailer that happened sometimes, usually when looking at tech or when looking at a bright light? Hmm
edit: Phantom Pain could mean "fake pain"?

I know, but after MGS1 he said a lot of times that he wants to stop being on charge of the development of MGS. But it also can be Big Boss' last hunt (what if the last part of the game is a MG1+MG2 remake?).
I just want to know where the hell injurai is to help me revel in this madness!
Why can't it be Volgin, or a hallucination of him? It could be Big Boss as somebody pointed out in one of those pictures.

It's a hallucination of some Snake (most probably Big Boss) AND Volgin.
No way in hell is this NOT Volgin.
NO WAY.

Because it's clearly not Volgin? People said it was because of the legs, but BB has the same legs on his suit. People just never realized until now that BB's suit is pretty much a copy of Volgin's.

Would the internet have collapsed if they had announced MGS 5: The Phantom Pain right away?
Look at that picture a few posts up and tell me you're 100% sure that's not Volgin. PLEASE do it. I mean come on, it could be a hallucination of him, we don't know! Also I said it could be BB in that post you quoted.
Nah, it's better this way. I love deducing (and seeing others deduce) these trailers and finding all the lovingly placed secrets and hints.

MGS 5 announcement

The internet would have exploded.
This way its more of a slow, but intense burn.
Side topic.
I seriously hope that konami decides to port MGS5 and GZ, if its even a desperate game, over to PC.
It seems like with LoS2 they are kind of testing the waters. I hope it opens up the floodgates.
I agree, this is fun watching the experts deduce and glean what they can from the minimal amount of info.
It really seems like a minimal amount of info at first, but its actually a very deep trailer. I'm impressed.

Wow! When I first saw the trailer during the VGAs I thought it looked like an awesome game on its own. Never in a million years did I think it was MGS related. Now I'm super excited

Of course it can. Sokolov is basically the same guy with a monocle.
I'd say Sokolov looks a lot closer to Kio Marv than this hospital guy.

Great theory, but rewatch the GZ trailer, the tissue damage on the burned guy extends down onto his neck, the guy in this trailer looks like the damage is limited to his head area.

Phantom Pain is the pain you experience when your limbs are missing. The pain isn't there but you imagine that there is.
Psychological pain.
And yes, the same flare lens/flash from GZ is in this trailer.

A lot of people say the guy is burned, but I always thought he looked more like a zombie. Like a dead guy brought back to life after having started decomposing. Which would make sense considering that if he is Galvez, the guy was shot dead.
So maybe all the titles for the game are bullshit? They are just the titles of those sections shown in the trailers? Weird.

I have a feeling the music is playing backwards. I hear quite a few backward instruments. Maybe a hint at the whole FOX/XOF parallel.
Nah, in the Moby Dick trailer part of the neck is covered with bandaging as you can see, and in the Ground Zeroes trailer, there is a high collared shirt that comes up to or at least near where that bandaging would be.

Then that would place all of these events before the "prologue" that is ground zeroes, unless he's in the hospital for some manner of procedure to reverse the damage. But It's Kojima, so i'll put nothing past him.

Interesting tidbit: In dealing with phantom limb syndrome (specifically, the feeling of an itch), experiments have shown that placing a mirror where the missing limb would be, simulating that the limb is still there, patients were able to scratch the itch and eliminate the pain.
So, mirroring an existing limb to eliminate a phantom.
