I’m just sayin’
Kojima got Reedus* and konami has this
*who now that I think of it I would probably rank just a couple slots below a de aged Kurt Russell if I ever was put in charge of a metal gear movie
I’d play it.
Gimme character customization like MGO and I’m down for this 4P Peace Walker meets MGSV meets zombies nonsense. I mean, they already had zombies with The Skulls so same deal.
I hope the story is fuuuucking stupid. And somehow ties into MGSV and its wormhole technology and the weird missing MB units you rescue, and the final boss is actually Zombie Boss riding Metal Gear Zombie and by killing him, they award you the title Biggest Boss and they clone you and make Liquid Boss and Solid Boss.

Oh man this stinks of recycled game much more than I thought it would.
Oh well, Konami has to get their money’s worth for those assets, I guess
Hey, I’m in. 4 Man Teams means maybe I can actually play with my friends instead of getting stomped by randos in MGO
thanks
honestly this is pretty neat. It isn’t just a me-too Left 4 Dead thing or something to directly capitalize on DayZ/survival stuff in general, it’s the most durable elements of those grafted onto the MGSV reconceptualization of the series (wtf am I saying). Things like the bait sheep, weight-based fence damage, spear stabbery and the ridiculous supply drop contextualization (going from loot crates being parachuted in to sending tech prayers to another dimension) help get over the eye-rolling caused by gas can scrounging, spawn waves of zombie hordes and the inconvenient convenience that is crafting.
I want to play this, although I doubt I ever will. Maybe I would even be interested in wandering the grimy, empty world. Some DLC of other Konami games would be cute. Maybe it will be terrible. I haven’t been paying attention to things at all. Probably dozens of games have done stuff like this in the past five years, some perhaps even forcing real choices/burdens like needing items to be physically moved (imagine having to defend your designated sheep-carrier). Who knows? I don’t. I hope if somebody gets this game they enjoy it and get the worth of whatever they spent on it. I like survival and zombies and offense and defense. I don’t play modern games or co-op. These things are big right now but maybe not in the future, but that might not impact the success or non-success of this game. It probably won’t mean much for the franchise or the company. Games will keep happening no matter what. Probably. Good night.
Sorry to interject, but why not?
Just curious
i’m watching my gameshare bloodbrother play the beta right now. if this could become a konami fanservice mmo action game i think i will really really like it.
fox engine castlevania raids, a beatmania weapon, contra crossover, christiano ronaldo kicking soccer balls at moai heads, guy savage. kojima isn’t home to stop anyone
holiday events with DDR music
hell yeah…

man this thing just looks like a really aggressive reuse of MGS5 assets built around a typical base defense game, and they want 40$ for it?
I’ll be real here. This looks like my kinda dumb fun. It’s just a shame it has konami’s label on it so there will probably be some kind of bad monetization hook and employees that got exploited for its creation.
that’s not just konami that’s the way of the world
step 1. get geoff keighley to denounce game auteur theory on a public stage
step 2. geoff keighley helps elevate a game dev union’s demands driven by the love of his dear friend hideo
step 3. you get to smoke some weed or something
constant internet connection required
monetization a major part of the game.

i like it, but i have never played rust or minecraft (the mode that isn’t legos) so all of the systems seem extra compelling to me.
it has 0 soul, which helps the mood a lot. i’ll be out in the dust collecting wood and kubans and sometimes i’ll come across a cassette tape with the winning eleven ost or something on it. i go back to my base and no one seems like they want to talk to me.
providing food for your crew is so difficult. the game never tells you that you need potatoes to make a potato garden so when you do find the potatoes the game gives you you’ll probably eat them on accident. i have yet to find another potato. everyone thinks i’m a fatass for eating all the potatoes that’s probably why they won’t talk
the co-op is good shit, it’s all that was available in the beta and that’s what hooked me! i’m hoping this game keeps a nice community of freaks and monsters i can play with for a while or at least until the castlevania/silent hill halloween event. the christmas event will probably play ddr music and have vic viper flying around or something. wave konami all up in my motherfucking face

Zero soul as a selling point is a pretty interesting take to be honest.
