Konami Announces Metal Gear Survive

A new addition to the Metal Gear Solid V experience.

[silkrevolver]

Huh. So Konami's giving us a Metal Gear in a genre nobody asked for instead of the obvious Chapter 3 that everyone wants?

Sounds about right.

[PaleMoonDeath]

Still looks better than anything MGO3 has to offer.

Edit: As if it doesn't look better :P Damn Kojima fanboys are rabid today, Portable Ops son, was dope!

[JackStraw]

so true. people want to hate this game because of their fanboyish loyalty to kojima. it's sad.

[Gitgud]

@Jack nah man people hate it because Zombies is mediocre and you'd be mental to deny that. They should have worked on something more reasonable, like chapter 3.

[rocketpanda]

No JackStraw, oh he of simple mind and olde memory.

Nothing to do with fanboyism. Maybe it's because Konami treated Kojima and his development team little shite and tried to scrub him from the metal gear series, the same IP he made infamous and made Konami money.

Only for Konami to make glorified gambling machines and a generic coop game using the Metal Gear name.

Might at well call metal gear skidmark from this point on.

[PaleMoonDeath]

This'll probably explain a bunch to you Kojima riders. My friends and I lasted two weeks from launch on MGO3, maxed out all classes, we need the skill system, ditch the classes, survival Wednesdays and more tactical maps and throw back maps from MGS4/MGS3/MGS1 and better playable special characters and the point weapon system when you have to earn kills to get new weapons in-game.

This new approach to MGO3 was built for non-fans of the series and it has suffered from it, MGS fans are those who play these games long term. Trying to appeal to everyone took away the harsh but reasonable attraction MGO2 most certainly had for us.

Or they can release MGO2 on PS4 etc >:) 1080p 60FPS glory! If you actually read through this, here's a virtual cookie, Hayters gonna Hayte ;)

[Gitgud]

@Twiggy we ain't Kojima ridin mate. No one wanted any Zombie related DLC which costs $30 mind you, we wanted Chapter 3. You know what would've been cool instead of this or MGO? A RDResc online mode, that would've been fucking amazing instead of some remaster of MGO2. Konami fucked up Kojima's franchise, they deserve all the bad they get.

[Bahamut]

This game looks like garbage, no thanks. Now a MGS3 remake with the pachinko machine's character models? I'd be down for that.

[JackStraw]

funny all the pseudogamers say "no" and then go on to prove my point. let the hilarity continue.

[2pacalypsenow]

Metal gear is Kojima, so that makes us Metal gear Fanboys, no shame in that

[morganfell]

The reason they used a wormhole as a plot device is so they can import any character in the MG universe...as DLC. Just watch. Add The Boss for $19.99

[_-EDMIX-_]

@jack- it's not MGS thus.... don't care.

Co op online?

Nope. An easy pass.

[ONESHOTV2]

Portable Ops was great i enjoyed it a lot as well

[naruga]

Cod Zombies +Metal gear 5 =Metal gear survive ...though i wont judge this right away negatively ..maybe is fun and smthing that doesnt mess with the existing cast

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

I agree. It didn't look that bad to me but I love zombie games so maybe I'm biased. This is like Metal Gear's take on the zombie genre and it might fill in nicely while I wait for games like Dead Island 2 or the next Left 4 Dead if they ever make it.

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

It's "Metal Gear Dead island", I totally want!

[lunatic0001]

You're asking for ch 3....how about the real ch 2 instead of the repeat of ch 1 missions but harder with a little story sprinkled over it

[THamm]

So is this DLC or a full game?? Doesn't look tempting as a full game.

[-Foxtrot]

"transported through wormholes into an alternate universe, where they’re forced to battle a force of crystalline zombies and, it seems, at least one Metal Gear itself"

LOL

Are they kidding? A wormhole? ZOMBIES?

Wow they've lost it. They've turned MGS into some over the top co-op survival game about the multiplayer experience so they can charge for more MT.

[Mystogan]

I'm not one to judge a book by its cover(in fact I often give them the benefit of the doubt), but this just from the description sounds horrible. Hopefully I'm wrong.

[bloop]

This is the worst book cover ever.

[dumahim]

A Metal Gear *game

(Disclaimer: May not actually contain a metal gear)

[joab777]

They know what we want.

[Twinblade]

Don't think Chapter 3 is gonna happen.

[TheColbertinator]

At least Pachinko had sweet character redesigns. This looks nothing like...Metal Gear has done since the 80s. Even MGR and Acid had some connection :/

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

I know everyone is going to hate on it, but this is a Metal Gear spinofff game where Metal Gear does it's take on the Zombie genre with co op and all. I love zombie games and while this doesn't look like a Metal Gear Solid game, to me it just didn't look that bad, maybe that's just me because I love zombie games but it looked pretty interesting and I'm still waiting for games like Dead Island 2 and Left 4 Dead 3.

[Bahamut]

This is a new 'multiplayer bro zombie shooter', but in order to make it stand out from the crowd, Konami tied in the MGS franchise. Pure and simple. This game is about $$$, not sticking to any sort of narrative in the overall story. Metal Gear is dead, anything that releases with the name attached will most likely just do so to rake in extra cash.
This is Konami. It's all they care about.

Fuckin pachinko machines.

[Lightning Mr Bubbles]

You guys can hate all you want but I'm pretty excited for "Metal Gear Dead Island"

I think it's a pretty good idea.

[Soldierone]

That's the thing. I love zombie games too and this game still looks like trash. Friggin portals? None of it made sense and all the characters without saying a single word were extremely cliche in every way.

Above that if Activision was like "hey Call of Duty Zombies is now a 30 dollar DLC" everyone would be bashing it galore. But this is Konami and any hate towards it means "oh that's just a kojima fanboy...." really? It looks like garbage.

[cleft5]

Well its a spin off. Would you really want them touching proper Metal Gear Solid before they proved they even understand what fans want. Too be honest, this doesnt look bad. It looks interesting, so I am willing to try it out for sure.

I just hope people give it a fair chance and not automatically hate on it because Kojima isnt making it. Lets see what these folks can do and what better place to see that then in a spin off. No matter what happens in this game, it isnt MGS proper and thats a good thing.

[Kryptix]

"Would you really want them touching proper Metal Gear Solid before they proved they even understand what fans want."

Hold on, did you just say this? You imply that they understand what the fans wanted by doing a spin off with zombies and having zero addition to the MGS world. lol Instead of using the Fox Engine to create an original zombie game, they're literally stapling the MGS name to move copies, that's all they're doing.

Nobody's hating on it because Kojima isn't making it, they're hating on it because this isn't what anyone wanted out of MGS. A proper spin off would be to create new characters and playing parts that we never seen before in the MGS story. I'll even say Metal Gear Rising was a proper spin off and Kojima barely had anything to do with it, but it didn't get anywhere half of the hate this garbage looking spin off is getting.

Wormholes, zombies, different timelines in a franchise that was about tactical espionage, war politics, stealth, etc... C'mon, that's like making a Resident Evil game where you catch biological monsters into a Pokecube and go around having battles with other catchers.

You're one of the same people that probably thought, "give these MGS pachinko machines a chance!"

[agame914]

no do not touch metal gear at all because it's not konami's vision

[Metallox]

They would need to make a proper Metal Gear Solid game in order to prove they understand what fans want. In fact, by making this spin-off they are making clear they don't care about the interests of the community.

I agree that we need to see how this turns out, though, but at the same time, come on, it doesn't even look like a decent L4D ripoff.

[PaleMoonDeath]

Looks better than MGO3, now before people get up in arms.. MGSV had random pointless zombies in there too, this looks like a good addition to the bare bones MP MGSV has, Kojima dropped the ball with MGSV, hell he didn't even want to make it.

I welcome this, make sure it has it's own trophies and I'll get it.

Edit: Open to arguements, if anyone tries to defend MGO3 or anything MGSV MP I'll happily chop you up :P

[SoulWarrior]

You are assuming everyone who is not liking this game was a huge fan of MGO3.

MGO3 was absolutely terrible yet I think this looks terrible as well, how about that?

[PaleMoonDeath]

You missed a Bullet and a half I'd say, not bad right?

[JackStraw]

you're the only one that's played MGSV apparently. LOL. the rest of these kids have no fucking clue what they're talking about and are simply hating out of dumb loyalty and immaturity.

[BiggerBoss]

What's up your ass dude? Stop being such a wanker

[agame914]

no this looks like a completely different game with metal gear put in the title..they cancelled PT so cancel this garbage because i sure as hell do not want it

[Viryu]

Resident Evil Umbrella Corps Retexture

[PaleMoonDeath]

Nothing is that bad. Nothing.

[Bahamut]

This game is.

[Nosferatu_Zodd]

Metal left 4 dead

[sdcard4gb]

Hey, pretty much, yeah :D
Wow, you are a genius !

[Gitgud]

WHERE IS CHAPTER 3!?

[Hoffmann]

On that Dead Island..together with Kojima and Snatcher.

[sdcard4gb]

What chapter 3 ? Oh, you mean the ending to MGSV ? What, you need it ? Too bad, they didn't bother making it, sorry XD

[philm87]

Looks pretty damn good to me. So much that can be done with a great game engine from MGS5, the more they do the better.

[PaleMoonDeath]

HOW DARE YOU BE POSITIVE ABOUT ANYTHING POST-KOJIMA MGSV!!!

You're right, looks dope. Especially after the cancer that is MGO3.

[Bahamut]

How high are you?

[FallenAngel1984]

Just give us Metal Gear Rising 2

[Bahamut]

...Never thought I'd hear that.

[Anghellic]

Please Konami let it rest, don't milk my favorite franchise and destroy it's legacy.

[Gitgud]

they did already mate. Metal Gear is finished

[PaleMoonDeath]

Actually, this is needed, have you played MGO3? Horrible.

[Bahamut]

So? Don't play it. I don't know why anyone would attempt to play that when you have Overwatch, or any of the other great online shooters that are available now.

Metal Gear has always been special because of its SINGLE PLAYER STORY. All that multiplayer garbage was just tacked on for adhd Call of Duty loving asshats who can't sit still for 5 seconds without shooting at someone else. Because of fans like that, this franchise has been raped. Not like they care though, why would they? Simpleminded idiots like that usually lack empathy of others.

[sdcard4gb]

Oh, they will :)
Abandon all hope, all who enter here :)

[Kaneki-Ken]

MGSV did destroy the legacy with its stories including chapter 3. Kojima didn't put much effort into awesome boss fight like Previous game, a story that wasn't needed to be told, sacrifice everything for open world and gameplay. Ground Zerous and the Beginning in the hospital in Phantom was the best part of the game and everything else was hype, many scenes in trailers was never part of the game so Kojima lied to the gamers. Both Kojima and Konami are at fault.

[Ristul]

Konami: The decline of a series starts now.

[Hoffmann]

It started with MGSIV already.

[Bahamut]

Eh... IV and V were still good games, regardless of their shortcomings. This does not look like a great game, no matter how you want to swing it. Shameless milking is shameless milking.

[Pazto]

Instead of "this", could they just work on Act 3 and Rising 2? I'm no kojima fanboy, but I start to be sick and tired of all this Spin-Off, Square-Enix, Capcom and now Konami. I wish ppl stop to buy all this poop, because thats why they keep on doing this.

[Tobsesan]

Whoa so cool, cant wait to play that one - said noone ever

[Malice-Flare]

and i thought Kojima had crazy ideas...

[sdcard4gb]

Crazy, but interesting.
This is crazy, but absolutely out of context.

[Nathan_Hale53]

Yeah, like inhuman and supernatural elements were always present in Metal Gear, but this is just way out there.

[Gitgud]

Jeez man, instead of this shitty DLC I want save data slots and difficulty modes.

[feraldrgn]

Wow, they really put a lot of thought into the name.

[Sephiroushin]

And at the end it seems more like Metal Gear's Death and not Survive lol

[I_am_Batman]

Honestly this looks more mediocre than anything I expected from Konami.

[sdcard4gb]

Wow.
Literally wow.
I think somebody at FucKonami just admited that it would be even worse if they started making numbered games and decided that the only sensible course of action would be making something completely random as fuck :D
Seriously, FucKonami, I am not even able to hate you for this. It's just so absolutely unimaginable I am literally speechless.
Good thing I buried MGS and Silent Hill side to side after Peace Walker and SH4 respectively. Good job, FucKonami, you broke a man ;) Good luck, FucKonami, your death comes one step closer to you ;D

[lunatic0001]

This was unexpected...they could've fixed mgsv as that game was a mess instead of this...maybe add ch 3 or fix ch 2 since it was just the same damn missions from the first chapter....the gameplay was the best in the series but can someone explain to me how mgsv gained universal acclaim???

[goldwyncq]

What's next? A Metal Gear racing game? A cooking show?

How much longer are they going to defile Kojima's work?

[Cy]

This seems like the game version of one of those movies that gets thrown together so the studio doesn't lose its copyright.

[PizzaSteve]

What a shame. Could at least left Metal Gear out the title but nope they think people will buy it because of name not me. Look at the dislikes on YT. Nobody want this. Just give us remakes of MGS1-3 on Fox Engine.

[theshredded]

Completely unexpected, you can clearly tell Hideo wanted to make a zombie game when he made MGSV. Still people are just crybabies, this looks decent enough and if it has MGSV base gameplay which it will then it's guaranteed to be a solid and fun experience. I wanted more MGS online and now I got it and we barely got one...

[rummy]

Konami has to improve a lot if it wants to outperform in the rat-race.

[Sephiroushin]

Seems to me that its more like Metal Gear's Death instead of Meta Gear Survive but oh well

[NextGenCeo]

This is not about fans or other things. This game is not Metal Gear game! So after Kojima of course Konami can`t make better Metal Gear game and that`s why they will do action game under Metal Gear brand.

I play every single Metal Gear game inculuded PSP games. So this is not Metal Gear. This is something else. And yes it`s will be Epic fail.

(ESL guy here sorry for English)

[christocolus]

Looks interesting.

[burza1982]

OMG!!!!
It's starting......turning one of the best game series into something damaging.

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

Next announcement, Metal Gear free-to-play FPS!

[eddieistheillest]

Here comes the dislikes , idgaf , it's my fav franchise mixed with zombies , I'm in.

[TwoForce]

It get dislike for good reason. If this game is something else, I would be interested but no.

[VsAssassin]

At least now, Konami can truly take advantage of microtransactions!

[Relientk77]

Should be called Metal Gear Dead on Arrival (DOA) because that's what it's going to be

[Der_Kommandant]

http://media.fyre.co/x4nUUw...

[Master of Unlocking]

"Survive sees the members of Militaires Sans Frontières not killed in that game’s finale transported through wormholes into an alternate universe, where they’re forced to battle a force of crystalline zombies and, it seems, at least one Metal Gear itself."

...

"Survive will be the first full Metal Gear game made after the departure of series creator Hideo Kojima"

... yeah, we see that. I mean, it shows, judging by the synopsis, LOL

*sigh* the milking is beginning, soon there shall be nothing left of Mr Kojima's masterpiece. That's right, go on Konami, try and make a few quick bucks with the MGS saga before leaving the videogame business altogether...

[DVAcme]

I can't wait to see Jim Sterling's take on this. I bet he popped a forehead veon when he read the headline.

[RPG1201]

Kojima is missing, this is Heresy I say, HERESY!!! you apostates, blasphemers! LOL

[Giru017]

Sooo, it's a 2017 Brute Force (by Digital Anvil) ser in the Metal Gear multiverse? Seems terrible.

[2pacalypsenow]

Let the butchering begin

[Fullmetalevolust]

LOL that is such a fitting title for a franchise that needs to carry on without Kojima at the helm.

[Nodoze]

Ahh good old Konami. I would pay money to get a video feed of the board meeting discussions about their cliff diving financials, and to see the guy that pitched Pachinko versions of MGS literally fall on his sword.

[ZombieGamerMan]

yeah clearly this was the way to go guys because who needs that lost mission with Eli when you can just do a zombie mode that fits in as well as jizz filled condom in a fruit basket

[My_Outer_Heaven]

This game looks awful. Yongyea isn't happy either. Who the fuck is this game for? It's clearly not for fans of Metal Gear.. Konami are IDIOTS.

[MilkMan]

4 player coop?
Umm, ok.
Guess SP experience has been thrashed. Guess ill pass.

[Nathan_Hale53]

Man, how dumb are they? Already vowed to not buy a MGS sequel, only remakes if they decide to do that. Too bad they have the amazing Fox Engine.

[BlaqMagiq1]

I surely hope no one's looking forward to this garbage.

[Kalebninja]

Konami, still not good at making trailers. Im interesting, i like survival games and im sure this'll have mostly the same gameplay MGSV which i also liked.

[kent80082007]

Yeah get rid of all the iconic characters and replace them with a bunch of generic soldiers straight out of resident evil umbrella corp. Great idea.

[Kalebninja]

it's a $30 spinoff, it's not like they're calling it MGS6

[GrimDragon]

They just ruined the entire franchise with this zombie garbage.

[Ethereal]

Oh god. We all knew this would happen. Konami won't be getting a dime from me.

[lastking95]

Haven't read any comments yet but i bet this is going to get so much hate. #kojimaloyalty

[RedTfox]

Really konami! this just shows the turds they will launch from now on, and how they will butcher the history of Metal Gear, now that Kojima the creator was not there anymore.
Not even their PES games matters to me anymore, since FIFA is better, then they have nothing more for me.
The only thing that will make me give another chance for this company, is if they bring back all the great IP's of the past, and knowning that it won't happen, is a goodbye of my part.

[masterfox]

lolololol

[CrimsonWing69]

Are they really oblivious to what the fanbase wants? Look, just because Call of Duty does it doesn't mean they need to do it.

[annoyedgamer]

lol

[JamesBroski]

This is the lamest fucking shit I've ever seen. Didn't take long to Konami to screw up the franchise. I was so hyped when I saw that they were bringing coop to MGS V until I see "zombies"

[Artemidorus]

I thought this were an add on? Talk about milking it.

[-Gespenst-]

Wormholes and crystal zombies? MGS is weird, but it's not that weird. I think Konami have gone over the top trying to recreate MGS's weirdness without Kojima. It isn't just about wacky, lol random weirdness - there's always a good reason for the weirdness in MGS.

[DeadManMMX]

There's going to be a whole lot of opinions and negativity no matter what they do with the IP. What it comes down to and all that really matter is this. If it's good it's good. If it's not it's not. We will see.

[Akuma2K]

No i'll pass, Konami trying to cash in on the metal gear name and treated the man who created the series like crap.......Konami can get the hell on and go play on the freeway.

[Perjoss]

Yeah. Good luck with that

[formanbradley]

Wow, they're making my boycott post TPP so easy. I thought they would tear at my heart strings with a MG and MG2:SS remake or something... but like I said... not a penny more.

[FernDiggidy]

Would have def. preferred metal gear rising 2.

[Gwiz]

Hmm Capcom with Umbrella Corps and now Konami with MGS.

[agame914]

people do not hate metal gear they hate konami for abandoning it's fans cancelling PT and pushing kojima out the door. Konami is a shell of itself who's main goal is to line there pockets with slow machines now

[quenomamen]

Metal Gear Umbrella Corps

[FreeSpeech69]

RIP Metal Gear. RIP Konami.

[Soldierone]

I was wrong I guess. I gave Konami 2 games before they ruined the franchise, turns out they can't even make it a half game without jumping off a cliff.....

[Tzuno]

Kojima leaves, Konami goes full outbreak, resident gear 5 :))

[zb1ftw777]

MGS franchise = dead.

Goodbye.

[ion666]

If they really wanted us (at least some of us). They should open up their old I.P.'s and create a new game with those. This is bad business. Also if it did not have the metal gear name on it. It still looks corny. fans spread free advertising and a buzz. This has flies buzzing around

[mastershredder]

It won't ...

[xtheblackparade]

Haha no..this series had ended.

[MagicBeanz]

Pass.

[MasterD919]

Where to begin...Wormhole? Zombies? Same character models? You're being transported through a wormhole that takes you to a "world" exactly like the deserts we played in in MGS:V? And plot-wise, I can only imagine how far up shitcreek it is. This game is atrocious! They are literally re-using assets from MGS:V.

This is likely the beginning of Metal Gear being whored out for every dime. I didn't think this was going to go down like this, but hey- Konami blows. I'm not for people losing jobs, but whoever came up with this game and supported it should definitely not have one...ever again.

[TXIDarkAvenger]

RIP Metal Gear.

I mean it was already apparent once Kojima was gone but this just adds to it.

[Enigma_2099]

Yeah. cause when I think of Metal Gear, I think ZOMBIES!!

... no wait, no I don't. What the hell does this have to do with Metal Gear?

[Enigma_2099]

Did it have to be called Metal Gear? Even with all the wtf that happened in the series, it all still felt somewhat grounded in the MGS universe. And I'm talking mooing mechs and watermelon slicing. But this is such a departure from what's expected in this series, why not just call it something else?

But in the end I don't care, because #F*cKonami. I wasn't gonna buy it anyway.

[Dirtnapstor]

Looked pretty cool. MGO meets Left4dead.

[Dangerous]

More like resident evil survivor.
F#ck Konami.

[d4sholil1]

Instead of voicing my perspective and opinion on the actual footage, this is probably Konami testing the waters with the fan base here. In other words, they are playing it safe which is understandable. Hint Hint Konami, Kojima never played it safe. #makemetalgeargreatagain (no I am not voting for Trump, nor Hillary)

[DarXyde]

Konami sure does know how to make unusual decisions: first, bothering to tease fans with a FOX Engine Snake Eater pachinko machine, now this.

Sure hope the backlash is worth it.

[ChipChipperson]

Essentially, it's Umbrella Corps, but within the Metal Gear universe.

[Kallisti]

Metal Gear died when Kojima left, I doubt it will "survive" without him

[SynestheticRoar]

Konami is dead to me. Have a nice day.

[OctaneLord]

I was to say the least... dissppointed with MGS5. I resolved my dissppointment in MGS5 with an understanding of Kojima getting burnt out on making new games for a series that in his mind, ended years ago.

I actually had a glimmer of hope that someone who was more passionate about the franchise could take over and bring MGS back to it's roots and focus on making a game that was a bit more linear in order to compliment the detail oriented world and story. I had hoped that Konami would ditch Keifer and bring back David Hayter. Someone who was willing to record more than 15 lines of dialogue in a 30 hour game. I had hopes to bring back a true to form MGS.

Instead, we get Konami trying to cash out on the zombie trend. I should have known...

[Apocalypze]

What a way to ruin/stain the name of a great franchise.

[joethetimelord]

This could've been four soldiers from any country separated from any military base getting attacked by any kind of military zombie. Connecting this to Metal Gear is nothing more than an attempt to sell the brand.

Problem is, people weren't paying for Metal Gear games. They were paying for Hideo Kojima games.

[Brohan]

So many angry Sony fans. I myself am looking forward to see more of what this game has to offer.
