Metal Gear Survive is a thing i missed to hear SW talk about.

What's your take on Konami just doing what they're doing with Metal Gear?

More of MGSV's mechanics is never a bad thing.

People complained about Rising, it was better than any Hideo Kojima developed game.

looks like shit.

but considering it has the gameplay of MGS5, we are paying attention to see how it turns out.

I fee the only reason this game was given the MGS name was to make it actually matter. I liked TPP gameplay but I never finished it. And this has zombies? I'll wait and see what they do with it, hopefully it comes out and turn out to be fun.

I'll assume this is sarcasm.

Hideo Kojima has a couple of remarkable games, a few good ones and several "WTF was he thinking?" kind of games, so yeah.

Oh, and about Survive...the idea is terrible on paper, but hopefully they learned how not to make a multiplayer game from Umbrella Corps, so it may still be a decent Left 4 Dead rip-off which is not a bad thing...but i don't see how it would be a good thing for the Metal Gear franchise.

Stupid

They should be expanding upon MGSV's gameplay ideas. Not making a generic zombie game.

Looks and sounds like shit.

MGS franchise is dead IMO.

It has zombies so people write it off. People are shallow. I'm sure the Sony loving Japanophiles would have liked it more had it remained a Sony exclusive.

My take is that Konami is going to reuse all the assets and abuse some more employees to get this one out of the door as fast as possible. My guess is it's not going to have any of the cleverness or intrigue or character developments, easter eggs, expert cinematography or interesting encounters that you could expect from a MG game. The trailer looked very bland in its style, as in clearly not done by the same people or against their will. Even as a small MGS fan I feel like this is going to be a slap in the face. The only shot it has at being remotely fun, is by shooting down my expectations first, and by not selling the franchise to an actual game company that wants to make games. Konami has done well on that part. I'm not going to give this game a chance, and neither should you.

Konami is a disgrace.

Sorry I'm a little pissed off at Konami.

Looking forward to it. If Kojima's name was on this people would be eating it up.

I like the concept of Metal Gear cooperative gameplay more than the player vs player they have in recent Metal Gears games. But I still need to see more from Survive. Metal Gears always had a ridiculous story and plot, so this one fits right in. It's the gameplay and presentation that makes this franchise.

I'll take MGS3 over Rising any day.

Don't get me wrong, Rising was LOADS of fun to blast through. Fun AF! I just think his main entry MGS games were better. We're all entitled to our opinions so I can see why you would say what you said.

Its their IP so they can do what they want with it. I have no interest in it.

Looks like another lame cookie-cutter and generic zombie shooter.

@uninspiredcup: you got to be kidding, rising was terrible.

should have been called "Contra"

"wwaaaaaaaaaaah **** you konami" *jerks off on kojima photo*-SW's response.

@da_illest101: It's just a fact, don't take it as an opinion.

It's a multiplat = system wars doesn't care, baby.... B-|

This thread actually rounded out the varying opinions pretty well.

I hate zombie survival games.. granted they generally are plagued with incredibly grindy gameplay, meter babysitting, and terrible combat. As much as I want to hate this for being predictable cash grab, I'm almost kind of hopeful that the MGS5 foundation could really make something magical with stealth survival. If they go the route of hard resource management and not the meter babysitting crutch it might turn out all right.

Nope

I'm trying to think how a stealth focus will work in a Zombie game.

I mean sure, some Zombie games have had minor stealth options, but usually it's nothing more than "throw object to distract, and walk past", and you can usually just shoot your way through in half the time anyway, making the whole stealth option pointless.

If they can overcome that, and make stealth, not only feel useful, but necessary, I might actually have some interest in this. If it ends up just been like every other Zombie game, where stealth is completely useless, and you better off just using run & gun tactics, then I'll be passing.
