If They Make MGS5 What Should They Focus On?

I'm pretty sure they will make mgs5, so I think they really need to focus on the AI and graphics (yes I said graphics). First off the reason I say graphics is because, you compare mgs4 to games like Uncharted1&2 or Killzone 2. I'm not saying the graphics were bad in mgs4 but certain areas needed work, and weknowwhat the PS3 is capable of graphics wise. And the AI didn't seem todifferent from the previous MGS games, eventhough it was some what of an upgrade. One games AI that really stood out to me was killzone 2. They used cover perfectly, and if they knew you were trying to camp in an area they would try to frag you out. What do you guys think they should focus on? And remember what I stated above is just my opinion I'm not here to start an argumentor anything. :D

More gameplay .. less cinematics ..

I sort of agree with you, I do want more gameplay, but I say keep the cinematics the same. Thats the best way to tell a story

:lol: Oh man the uproar would be keep us entertained for months ..

For me, I'd want them to focus on a story that isn't a true sequel to MGS4, but something like a prequel, such as Raiden's experiences between Sons of Liberty and Guns of the Patriots. I just don't want some sequel that feels tacked on and not needed.

Well there are ways to tell a great story without having to sit you though hours upon hours of cinematics .. or break them up .. I really enjoyed the game, but didn't like having to watch hour long cinematics .. was boring to me.

You guys don't get sick of it? LOL

I think it sucks when all you seem to see/hear is "MGS4 to 360?" even though it has been debunked a thousand times. It just gets boring..

I just don't understand why people still carry on with that.

It would be cool to see a ninja twist into the game as the cool Raiden now as main character.

if it's it's going to be an open world stealth game, Kojima needs to make sure he enriches the gameplay as much as possible. And of course I want Kojima to make the story and new characters fit with previous MGS games. More easter eggs, more unlockables, trophies etc..........

So are you a fan or not because usually a fan of a certain video game doesn't crap on it. I'm confused?

Not when you know how the rest of the MGS games are, they are all about the long cut scenes, gameplay comes second. Fact ;)

Exactly what I was going to say. Half the time I was nearly asleep. Especially during the mission briefings.

I wouldn't want that. If they want to add more time to the gameplay that's fine. But it just wouldn't feel like MGS if they did away with the long cutscenes.

well i think its wrong to compare mgs5 to four.

mgs4 had to tie alot of knots in terms of the story, i don't think that mgs5 will have that problem, if it is related to the previous games at all, i really don't think there is anything to worry about this game.

So the arguement about less cinematics is right, mgs4 did have too many cinematics, i loved them but there was still too much. Hideo kojima knows this.

well think about how cinematic the chase scene was, when you take your aim away it goes to a very cinematic perspective which really worked well.

But lets say we are at the end of act 1, lets say we make that gameplay, snake has to sneak around totally undetected otherwise its fission mailed in that environment, then he has to get to a position where he can shoot ocelet, camera is briefly taken control of to show rat patrol, then when you press the aim button and the recticle is over ocelet's head the nanomachines could go all haywire, and then you are trying to get through the madness closer to snake and then you fall on the ground, then cutscene.

The only real problem with this, its kind of inconsistent going through zones of the game where if you get caught and alert phase happens, but in other aeras its game over instantly.

this is just one example, sometimes its better to have entire cutescenes, but there aren't many arguements that you can make for story telling through a gameplay perspective at least for mgs.

I agree that they need to make more of the story told through gameplay, but you have to agree that there must be some concessions made for consistency throughout the gameplay

Either a game following Raidens journey... or another game as Big Boss. Hes the MAN. Hes who Snake is just a bad genetic replicant of. Id like to play as BB in a more modern era though. No bolt action rifles or anything of that sort. More CQC and stealth. More epic boss battles! Less mission Briefings! Drop me off and break it down to me when I get there.

they should definitely get rid of the hour long cinematics that was annoying

More gameplay, same amount of cutscenes. If you don't like the cutscenes skip them. Also I think the original story arc is over. Have a new character and new story arc setwithin the same universe. Perhaps have characters from the original arc have cameo appearances and for the most part take a back seat to the new characters.

they should focus on making it cooperative for campaign and not making a crappy online multiplayer..

I just don't want them to do anything to screw with the story we've just seen complete. I am totally content with the way things ended and I do not want that tampered with . I really feel their best bet would either be a prequal that covers all the mysteries behind Raiden and how he saved Sunny, became a Cyborg, delivered that corpse to Big Mama, etc, etc..... Or they could do a remake of the very first two games where we get to play as Solid Snake in his prime when he took down Big Boss the first two times. I think it'd be great to put both games together and leave out all the cenematics. The stories for those two games are pretty cut and dry. That would leave tons of room for that awesome stealth gameplay. Plus, I'd like to play as young snake again and LOVE to see him actually battle it out with the old man. Nephilim83

They had to tie all the loose ends thats why the cutscenes were so long in 4.
