>game with wacky elements and comedy
>wtf its not realistic

It’s a gag. All of MGS is full of them.

it's called humor, you sad fuck

He has a bandana on his ID photo.
People would be suspicious if he wasn't wearing one.

I usually stick the Raiden mask on in this bit. The ID badge doesn't match but it looks alot better.

Japanese """""""humor"""""""""

MGS3 is a brilliant game but fuck camo just doesn't work as a mechanic. Going through those menus is too cumbersome, having to switch because you moved onto a slightly different patch of dirt is annoying, having it revert when you die is annoying, and I'm very likely to just slap on something greenish-brown and use it for the entire game

Anyone else always wear the Raikov mask during the disguise sections? Just feels right.

Stop whining about a 15 year old game.

Exactly. I don't get what's so hard about just selecting Tiger Stripe and then just using the camo menu for specific situations that deviate from it. No one's asking you to do it every two seconds, and it's pretty telling that the biggest complaint people have about MGS3 is "muh menus"

So, Tiger Stripe, which is available from the getgo?

>not also wearing the Raikov mask
Casual.

I'm a scientist and I wear a bandana on the job sometimes.

did anyone actually have a mullet in the 60s?

Came here to post this.

What am I supposed to be looking at? I just see a lab coat

Nope, not a single person on the entire planet.

By looking so ridiculous there was no way those loser scientists would have been able to even attempt to question him

He’s wearing a bandanna on his id card too

it's a tactical combat mullet. it's cut just short enough at the front that even without a bandana, it won't get in the way of what you need to do for the mission. even in high winds, when wet, or while rolling away from tank fire. it's kept shaggy at the back to keep your neck warm and protect you from the elements. it's an occupational haircut.

Well yeah, he's disguised. Why would he remove part of his camouflage? That'd just make him easier to spot.

It was the 60s, if you didn't have a bandana you were pretty lame

Why are you here, then?

Same. And then I change into regular sneaking garb right before I enter the room with Granin and triggering that cutscene.

This it’s the true camo is being a chad

This is why I didn't like MGSV. It got rid of most of the fun charm

>Didn't get it
Play the fuckin game

There were still a few but yeah you're right. I think not having codec conversations was a big mistake. Most of the cassettes are uninteresting and Snake doesn't even participate in most of them.

Where did he even get that ID badge?

scientist here, sometimes I wear a bandana in the lab, when I can't find any hairpins

>and Snake doesn't even participate in most of them
snake barely participates in the game at all.

If 3 ever gets a remake, the Octo camo from 4 would be a nice unlock.

>fucking

Stop insulting the bandana.

I haven't played mgs3 in a long while, but iirc it was eva who gave him the disguise

you are not supposed to change camo every two step, retard
you just use the one more suitable for the whole zone

Even if he was naked he would still wear the bandana to feel dressed

Because the bandana is the icon of Metal Gear, stupid fuck.

Unless there is an specified, intention to why he doesn't have a bandana (GZ and later), you're not supposed to question it's existence in 3 and PW, just like how you're not supposed to question Solid Snake's bandana.

It's still on his scientist costume in 3 since he wears the bandana throughout a major portion of the game, and Snake... sneaky, disguise thing, bandana... well. STOP QUESTIONING IT.

Don't know if it is off-topic, but there is certainly more interesting things about mgs3 than that fucking wall.

My biggest complaint with MGS3 isn't the Survival Viewer but how the level design and camo shift the pacing. I still like MGS3 a lot, but it's not well-balanced.

Best humour.

The cassettes are VERY interesting though, at least to me.
But I agree about the non-existing codecs, that was a major let down.

It is a wall from the game. It could potentially have been a interesting topic of the texture work was good or something. Right now it is a boring picture, but it is still mgs3 related.

The inflatable snegs were fun

Why are all the male scientists in MGS, with the exception of Granin, skinny beta fags with glasses?

But it wasn't. MSF and Outer Heaven had different goals and different scopes.

No, but the sketch of non-burned Skull Face looks exactly fucking like him.

When can we have a candid conversation about the ridiculous stupidity of The Boss as a character?

I'm sure if MGS were allowed to on, they'd one day reveal that twist.

What was her deal anyway?

I didn't mind her in MGS3, even if it's a bit stupid that Big Boss is Big Boss because he killed a Boss and that makes him a Boss but Big. MGS4 and PW just mutilated her character through redundance and wank, when MGS3 itself wanked her enough.

To be fair... the bandana provides unlimited ammo. Nobody knows why...

she's not much more stupid than anything else in the game

I mean, she already covered that in her pre-fight dialogue.

>even if it's a bit stupid that Big Boss is Big Boss because he killed a Boss and that makes him a Boss but Big
That's not what I was referring to at all.
Kojima being a hack writer.
It is more stupid given how we're supposed to really admire this completely impossible character who gave birth on Omaha Beach. The Cobras are bad, but they're one and doners. Volgin is 2D, but he's a villain and entertaining.

If you ask me to believe in ghosts and a man who can shoot electricity out of his fingertips, it's not a stretch to buy a lady giving birth on a battlefield

I fail to see your point. This is a series built from the ground up on stupid, impossible, supernatural, contrived, unrealistic shit. The Boss is another drop in the bucket, and certainly not the worse offense Koji has committed.

>That's not what I was referring to at all.
I know, but it's one of the goofiest things about the character. MGS3 inflates her too hard, though. Her domination of Volgin and Naked Snake throughout the game (and being the latter's mentor) is enough to demonstrate she's a big deal. She didn't need to give birth to Ocelot on a battlefield or be the first person in space. Still, she provides a contrasting lens into Naked Snake that fleshes out Big Boss a little even if their relationship is thin. MGS3 doesn't have a great story.

It's THE camo to wear if you're one of those people who dislike having to go through the survival viewer all the damn time.

>But it is shown. That's what MG1 and MG2 are.
Not in terms of Big Boss being the protagonist.
We could have gotten the dream game of playing Big Boss finally building Outer Heaven for real but somehow we got THIS instead.

Kojima is a hack.

>Choose your own adventure
It makes sense now, Kojima stealing ideas and making them his own.
A shitty hack fraud.

>Not in terms of Big Boss being the protagonist
Why does he need to be the protagonist? His goals and motivations are already clear. We know what he does and why. We've always known it. A game surrounding that would have been pointless filler even more than PW and MGSV already are.

It's a joke to justify why Naked Snake wears a mullet in Snake Eater. Real reason is because Solid Snake wears a mullet. That's it.

Naked Snake is a literal ripoff of Solid Snake with a different personality who only does the things he does because Solid Snake did them first.

Consider Big Boss as an evil version of Solid Snake that smokes cigars.

Building Outer Heaven in South Africa and playing as an evil, heinous war criminal, or rather, playing
>"You're the villain"
is much more fun than playing
>"YOU'RE ABOUT TO BECOME A VILLAIN FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME!"

Kojimbles cut off Big Boss being the MC in TPP because something about him being blatantly evil and that the player needed to realize the evils for himself.
Plus, there's nothing really necessary to shoehorn in to the story at this point.

Nobody cares.

The concept art looks as though he let his hair grow out for some reason and pulled it back. The character model on the other hand suggests his hair is a mullet that he ties the back of, and it's kind of goofy.

It doesn't even look tied.
They took his mullet and deleted a chunk of it, slapped on a ponytail and called it today. The front of his hair would at least have showed a little tug.

The worst part was how bland they managed to make Ocelot, the one character who should be the most insane.

thats because hes in big bossu ass slave mode. mask comes off at the end when he drawls about there not room for the two of em

BiBo should have never had the bandana, the eyepatch was enough. Kojima retro-actively took the Bandana from Snake and gave it to Big Boss by giving Big Boss a personal attachment. Snake just wore it because it looked cool. It also makes no sense that Snake and BiBo are identical looking, despite not being perfect clones.

Octo-camo is even worse than the menus. If the camouflage automatically chances, what's the point of having it at all? Just do what V did and have the same detection radius for all guards at all times. In 3 most of the camos had hidden special abilities like DPM preventing battery drain, it was a pretty in-depth mechanic.

>it also makes no sense that Snake and BiBo are identical looking
Solid and Liquid were already identical looking. Their face had to come from somewhere. Solidus has the same face, too.

It tells you that in the menu.

I know, but you have to look to see that, and it's pretty fun. Did you know the black face paint prevents grip drain, pretty cool, right?

I honestly do like it better both story and gameplay wise over the games I put it ahead of.

mgs4 is pretty shitty, everyone knows this now. I think it might be a little underrated now tho. I still like it.
mgsv - really had a chance. it just has so little of a story and way way way too much pointless gameplay padding.
mgs1 hasnt aged well. idk. maybe I would give this game a tie with PW. the storyline is very very derivative of mg2, which is better.

so yea I guess I would say that mgs1 feels like a mg2 downgrade, mgs4 a mgs3 downgrade, and mgsv a peace walker downgrade

You mean green, right?

Maybe. I think brown prevents you from drowning.

david hayter is shit and as shown in GZ, all snakes are voiced by kiefer in the kojimaverse

>he doesn't wear a bandana to work

Big Boss should have never been Hayter, Snake is Hayter's character. Keifer was great in what little time he had to be Big Boss. Originally Kurt Russel was supposed to play Naked in 3 but he turned it down, I don't know if that was Kojima wanting to replace all Snakes with a movie star because he could or him wanting Big Boss to have a separate voice, but if it was the latter I don't see the problem.

Solidus has the same face too, though.

I never thought they looked identical. Related, sure. Might just be the white beard though.

It should never have been Hayter because Hayter should never have been hired in the first place. Solid/Solidus/Big Boss were all voice by Akio Otsuka in Japanese.

Agreed.

No he just wanted to replace 'Snake' 's voice actor with someone else because Hayter sucks and he didnt cast him. Its not just Big Boss, in the deja vu mission in GZ Kiefer does sorid snake lines.

honestly, I'm torn. Hayter's Snake is iconic, but I wouldn't have minded if BB was a different voice. but in 3, he wasn't. so the lack of consistency is obnoxious -- if Kojimbo wanted to recreate his own series he should have started way sooner than V.

You don't have to convince me, I loved Keifer as Big Boss. Of all the missed opportunities of V, the biggest has to be wasting Keifer on the mopey boring Venom and not having a 60 hour campaign of him as the charismatic warlord Big Boss.

3 is the peak of the entire series but V is the peak of the faster more arcade-y stealth of 1 and 2. The game really shines once you throw out the tranq and turn off reflex mode. The level design and asinine Alert system are only things that really holds it back imo.

Sadly the posters in the hd remake just aren't the same

Why the hell does Ocelot have a Texan accent? Ocelot is the only character who is consistently entertaining and well written throughout the entire series, how do you mess up such a simple character when the groundwork had already been laid for 15 fucking years?

wtf that's subtle

>3 is the peak of the entire series
I don't agree here either.
>V is the peak of the faster more arcade-y stealth of 1 and 2.
What? MGSV has a lot more in common with MGS3 than it does MGS2 or MGS1. Being able to sprint and crouch-walk speeds things up a little, but the overall design sensibilities are pretty far-removed from the classic Metal Gear games. MGSV often feels to me like Splinter Cell and MGS3 had a child.

2's stealth isn't given enough credit. The VR missions are very fun and highlight the very polished engine, but the Big Shell is not fun to sneak around.

>Ocelot is the only character who is consistently entertaining and well written
MGS4 completely butchered Ocelot.

Dr.Snake, I have a medical problem!

I like mgs3 more than mgs2, but its different. 2 was the height of classic metal gear, and 3 was a unique mutation.

mgs4 and onwards is third person shooter trash.

By the hundreds of millions. There's a few pictures my mom has floating around of my grandfather back when he was in his 20s with a particularly fucking killer mullet.

Solid Snake is somewhat boring in MGS4 because the story doesn't have room to give him much agency, but the overall throughline of his character is preserved. Same for Otacon. I'd say Big Boss has mostly been preserved too despite goofy shit like believing in Santa.

The Big Shell is great.

This 100%.

Big Shell is like a shoebox filled with cool toys and no where to play with them. I loved the tanker though.

The big issue is that this is the one game where he isn't some manner of antagonist. Of course Ocelot wouldn't act like a dick to someone whom he's genuinely allied with.

>eceleb threads are allowed he says
>never sees the ones that are 404ed

The design philosophy of the tanker isn't any different. I do think the tanker is much more visually appealing than the Big Shell, though. The Big Shell doesn't look bad, but it is a little repetitive on a purely aesthetic level.

His line reading in MGS1 is stilted but he's not forcing his voice as much. A little less stilted in MGS2. MGS3 he tries so hard to make his voice gravelly. His throat must have been so fucking sore.

He would still be a kook though. In V he's the reasonable one. Miller's only character trait is that he's mad all the time and Venom is too boring to have an opinion. Every time he appears in a scene it's either to A. Torture someone (even though it's not in fitting with how he's presented) cuz hey! remember MGS1? B. Dump exposition with all the conviction of a text to speech program or C. Tell Miller to calm down.

To be fair the Big Boss you hear from over the radio is presumably the original Big Boss. So we can just pretend the illustration is of that Big Boss.

on my first playthrough I wore the Raiden mask as well while infiltrating that place because I actually thought the Snakes face/the bandana would get me caught

The MC in TPP is only mute, mopey and boring because of Mad Max, and, oh, also, Kojima wants you to focus on his facial expressions.

Yeah.

He isn't really all that kooky in MGS2, though. Or even MGS1 outside of his revolver lust. The only games he's particularly goofy in are MGS3 (where he's very young and simultaneously less competent than he wants to be but more competent than he lets on) and MGS4, where he isn't even himself.

He's pretty boring in MGSV, but the fact he's more level-headed doesn't really surprise me much. It's just a reflection of the story not incorporating him a whole lot. Miller is very boring too despite being more emotional.

No, he was LIGHTENING; THE RAIN TRANSFORMED.

I remember being a kid when the game came out and getting to Groznyj Grad and not knowing how to get in. The way you're "supposed" to go in through a vent I didn't see as an eggshell brained child, so I just wracked my brain thinking of how to get into the locked door. Eventually I just decided to do what I would in real life and knock on the door, and it worked! It blew my fucking mind, and MGS3 has always been special to me for that specific memory.

What does it even do? IT always has a low camo index compared to something else for me.

It's generally decent to good camo in all terrains without eating stamina like the spider.

Is this pic some meme? I didnt get it.

soul

It's fine, he's got a bandana on in his ID card.

I had to flip the image of BB because the eyepatch is on the wrong eye in MG1, lol

Big Boss knew that he would be fighting a Saturday Morning Cartoon character and that Kaz would have a boring, shit arc.
That's why Big Boss left for South Africa, abandoning him and everyone else. Fact.

I forgot about that.

They're both an absolute chore to play
Missions and base building don't work for MGS
Neither does open world

>changing camo every 3 seconds
>dying in MGS3
>actually caring about camo when you can do a perfect run with naked snake
Just fucking go back, scum.

Ugh. I forgot about skullface. He's the general grievous of Metal Gear. When he shows up it's like we're already supposed to know who he is and be invested in him.

I never realized i dont even know whos sposed to be up top on the american box art. Volgin? Doesnt really look like him. Kinda looks like ocelot, but the missing eye makes me think its big boss and naked is hiding from what he is to soon become. Then again i know shinkawa commonly shades eyes out so im probably looking too far into it and its just a weird volgin

It's big boss. You can tell because the characteristic cheek lines.

Buy my game

daily reminder running man is canonically the most impressive metal gear boss

>it's like we're already supposed to know who he is and be invested in him
I don't think so. The point is that he kind of comes out of fucking nowhere. Having lived in Zero's and Big Boss's shadows is one of the things driving his character, and it's part of his lost identity.

He's the other phantom.

>The only reason why Metal Gear Solid V talks about people being forgotten is because Skullface, etc. are all completely new characters which are never mentioned again in 1, 2, and 4
>Peace Walker does the same thing except that it actually has a mark on the story because it explains the origins of Outer Heaven

Major, I'm doubting the choice of camouflage that I was provided for this mission...

It's obvious that MGSV's self-contained, mostly inconsequential story was designed to be that way to avoid stepping on the toes of later games, but saying it's the "only reason" it talks about people being forgotten isn't right. The entire game is about legacy and identity. It's a driving theme.

iirc you can't be facing them, so adjust the glasses while facing away

>Snake, the mission is to rob a convenience store. I couldn't think of a better camouflage for the occasion.

Autists like headbands, autists like science. It could be a naruto headband with splatoon themed pants and he'd still look like a scientist

lol who cares about identity
>(youR'e)
Big B0ssssss
LOL
being a warmongering terrorist nigga is hot as shit, don't waste your marbles trying to fulfill The Boss when hoarding and building nukes rock

oh yeah fuck the Boss, what a shitty bitch ass mary sue

Skullface was in 3 though

Oh fuck. How to get MGSV Venom in GZ? I always want to play as him instead of the PW suit but never found an easy way.

It's hilarious to me that, canonically, as a normal soldier before he knew he was a clone or just BB's "son", no one ever went, "Shit, Snake, you look exactly like the President but younger. No, EXACTLY."

It's pretty good. Lower framerate but crouch walking is nice

I wonder if anyone ever thought he was the president's son or something.

Probably, which is funny in its own right. But assuming Venom was off doing Outer heaven shit and the real Big Boss was there for Foxhound, it's also astounding nobody seems to have been like "What the fuck is up with this shit" between Snake and Big Boss looking and (Presumably?) sounding like the same dude sans eye patch.
