A few weeks ago, Hideo Kojima had revealed the entire map size of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. One look at the map and it's not hard to make out the portion below is land and the white portion above it is the sky. However that does not seem to be the case. A Reddit user has uncovered that the white portion is actually made up of roads, terrains and buildings.
Whether it's showcasing damage realistically or simulating fractures and conditions, these games are worth checking out.
The Metal Gear series has sold 60.2 million copies, as of September 2023.
Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.
...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is another rollercoaster of a game in the Metal Gear Solid series. Here's what to expect and why you need to experience it.
Yea I don’t get why they’re allowing old reviews to be posted here. Someone did one on Soul Reaver and I got so excited thinking there was some stealth release of an HD Remaster, but no… it’s just someone who had a slow day posted an old review…
I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that
The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.
Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.
Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.
The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.
The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.
The hospital section was the only bit that felt like a MGS game.
MGS4 was the ending for me. I totally ignore the fact 5 exists. It didn't need to exist tbh
Pretty interesting theory, I like it. Now if only we could get confirmation on whether or not Afghanistan is supposed to be the entire game or not?
Cuz I swear I remember Kojima said that there wasn't just one massive map, but there would be a few. But all the recent footage and information kinda makes it seem like Afghanistan is the entire game, idk.
Interesting stuff, also I don't think Kojima needs to reveal every zone from the game. He has shown us already 5 trailers and few gameplay demos, which is more than enough. Anyway we got Mother Base, Afghanistan, maybe Africa and some other place, also maybe we can walk around in that base at the end of E32014 trailer where he go with Skull Face.
That scene where Skull Face lands with his men from the helicopter, E3 2013 trailer scene. I thought it could also be them landing in your Mother Base, but it seems the mark on the ground is partly covered in sand so maybe it is in that area.
After only just purchasing Ground Zeroes (for £10.00 bargain awesome prologue) I gotta say well done to Kojima got a lot more than expected and The Phantom Pain just got pre ordered as for the map I can't see it just being Afghanistan there's just been to many clues to other areas.
What about other locations though? Isn't Africa a big part of this game too? What about the map for Africa & the map for the hospital shown in the trailers? Do you think we will be able to explore Africa's map just like Afghanistan or will it be a linear map instead? We saw a jungle setting during the demonstration of project ogre before MGSV was announced.. I wonder if we will see that same place again in MGSV:TPP? So many questions left unanswered.
I'm gonna be honest here, the free roam aspect has got me a bit worried with its massive maps. Whats to say these maps wont be next to empty like RDR was(where they made up for it with random events)?
I just dont want to explore empty spaces just for the sake of open world demand. MGS is suppose to be about story first IMO.
