Multiplayer reveal in Metal Gear Solid : The Phantom Pain this Thursday

This Thursday, IGN will premiere the 25-minute behind-closed-doors demo of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, previously only at last week's Gamescom Expo in Cologne, Germany. You'll see crazy cardboard box shenanigans, open-world exploration, how the day-night cycle affects mission gameplay, and even your first look at multiplayer.

I hope it is more then this leaked video http://www.takuchat.com/spe...

I really want to see MGO3!

imtheman20133538d ago

Unfortunately, I think the leaked video is what's being planned for reveal on Thursday. But, honestly, I think what's leaked looks really interesting. I can't wait to infiltrate other players bases to steal their resources and whatnot, only to strengthen my own defenses of Mother Base.

As for MGO3, I think it'll be revealed later on, maybe at the VGAs or something? Can't wait for more news on that, either.

vishmarx3538d ago

id love me some tower defense stuff.the concept of motherbase from PW+this infiltration mechanic fit so perfectly together.

KingKelloggTheWH3538d ago

I just hope I can invade other peoples bases as another character, like in MGO2/PW.
I dont want to be Big Boss fighting Big Boss.

imtheman20133538d ago

I think that the Big Boss fighting Big Boss thing *could* be cool, but only if there's some sort of cosmetic customization the player can do to Big Boss. Like, maybe my Big Boss is wearing his infiltration suit when I'm sneaking into another players Mother Base because I want to be less noticeable, but their Big Boss is in more casual clothes like a CQC Training outfit or something (an outfit he'd only wear at Mother Base or whatever). I think that something like this could make it less... weird? I mean, when it comes down to it, I'm trying to avoid the other Big Boss entirely.

But I do agree, it'd be much more believable for the other player to just look like someone else. Sort of like what Assassin's Creed Unity is doing with their co-op. Every individual player is Arno in their game, but comrades are just random faces with their Arno's gear.

Last mgo was hilariously fun but I hated how it seemed to function separately from typical psn structure

I need me some MGO! I miss the MGO for PS3, One of my favorite multiplayer games!

thelaughingwiseman3538d ago

ala Peace Walker? One of my favorite and most innovative MP's I've played in a long while . Up to 4 players trying to accomplish the host' mission

ssjkiet3538d ago

OMG THIS..... idk about you guys, But i absolutely enjoyed how the MP was set up & the fun nonsense it was.. Especially with the special items haha... Super Human Slingshot!

ThanatosDMC3538d ago

Yeah, full co-op would be nice. It'd be great to have multiple snipers around a town while someone infiltrates silently.

thelaughingwiseman3538d ago

everyone needs to sync up to complete the mission! And Fulton recoveries!

HappyWithOneBubble3538d ago

Oh boy can't wait to play this game. MGO was so much fun then the hackers ruined it. Should be better this time around.

great this is biggest dissappointment for this game now now ill be forced to play mp to platinum this game its single player tatical espionage u dont need that crap in mgs game peoples.

oh well if footage i see sux its bargain bin game for me,unless there is no mp trophysi n it then ill be estatic make all trophys campaign only this forcedo n mp trophy crap gotta stop its lucidious

Gatsu3538d ago

There are players who play games for trophies and players who play game for story etc. But I agree with like some older games, where people don't play MP anymore and then there is MP trophies if want Platinum, it kinda sucks.

I'll play first majorly offline if possible, but gonna try this MP later on because it will be so much fun I'm sure :D.

hkgamer3538d ago

i understand what you mean in a sense. but dont let trophies or platinum trophies decide if you buy a game or not.

Now we'll have to see how much the Master Collection will add to those numbers.

Number1TailzFan175d ago

Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.

Stanjara175d ago

...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.

Minute Man 721175d ago (Edited 175d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus175d ago

Yes, these are total lifetime sales of the entire series.

ApocalypseShadow175d ago

.... mostly with the help of PlayStation.

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…

Cacabunga191d ago

I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that

micdagoat19191d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19191d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq191d ago

The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.

Chocoburger191d ago

This review arrived just in time for launch. Perfect timing!

RupeeHoarder191d ago

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.

YourMommySpoils191d ago

Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.

RupeeHoarder191d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85191d ago

Have you player Cyberpunk since the first day? It's absolutely stunning now

1nsomniac191d ago

One of the worst games ever made. Absolute overhyped trash!

Snowb420191d ago

The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.

Shane Kim191d ago

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.

KyRo191d ago

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
