My hopes for the series.

I have many high hopes for the Metal Gear series, should it continue. These are but a few:


  • That Big Boss' character's active transformations be shown to us by playing as him through them.
  • That the backgrounds of characters connected to Big Boss (Sniper Wolf, for example) are elaborated on extensively.
  • That within those present character backgrounds I suggest, Ocelot gets a lot of attention.
  • That Kojima Productions truly is well trained and will work as hard as possible to meet and exceed the standards set by their previous work with Kojima as director.
  • That Kojima gets to produce and continue to exercise heavy influence.
  • That Snake is allowed to rest, as intended.
  • The presence of explanatory, precluding elements that don't seem like nothing but messily patched on retcons.


What are your hopes?

that this is the end. I loved the series, but if they keep it up, too many changes, too many mistakes in the timeline and in the MGS universe, best to leave it alone. It was a kick ass series that nothing can compete with (except Halo imo because i loved the games and the novels)

I think the series should be put to rest. It can't go on forever being it 20 years since the first game. If anything I would like to see another game when you play Big Boss. Maybe a sequel to portable ops???

I actually think it should end as well. Nonetheless, should it continue under new direction with Kojima producing, I still have hopes.

Lay the damn thing to rest, create a new series. The direction of MGS4, for me, has been the worst yet, and it feels like things can only get worse.
I'm better at Metal Gear Solid than you will ever be.
Prove me wrong.

I'd love to play as BIG BOSS one more time. A sequel to MPO would be ideal for me, personally. Hopefully on PS3? I'd love to play as BIG BOSS, durring the Cold War Era using similar sneaking tactics introduced in MGS4 ( The crouch't walk and scout-crawl specifically ).

Maybe having something to do -- directly -- with the initiation of project to bring about BIG BOSS' Terrible Children, and his eventual rejection of them.

I agree with you [X]Entity, but also with GTMtSYA. If there would be a new game I would like to see more from Big Boss and Sniper Wolf. A few months back I'd rather had MGS4 to be the disappointing last game in the series, like God said. But just a little I hope they make another to make up for MGS4. With a better MGO2.

i wouldn't mind if they just had a whole different storyline altogether without any mgs characters with the same game elements that were in mgs4,crouch-walk,the roll while lying down and all that good stuff,also i would like to hold up enemys like in both mgs4 and in mgs2 where you shoot them or just aim your gun at them and then they drop stuff or pat them down,and to not move as slow as snake,it's like walking with one leg and the other is broken,he;s to old to be fighting after all those years

The huge amounts of casualties in the PMC's and the destruction of the B&B Corps disagree with you.

I'd like to see the Gray Fox/Big Boss relationship develop further. I'd love to see why he accepted Frank as a son, but rejected the Snake twins and Solidus.

One thing I don't want is a game with Sunny, Johnny, Raiden or Little John as the hero. If that ever happens I swear I will never play an MGS game again.

I don't want that either. If anything, skilled expansions on characters like Gray Fox, Sniper Wolf and Big Boss would be best. It seems this is pretty much universally agreed that should it continue this would be the best route. I hope Kojima productions is listening.

As long as they don't continue MGS storyline, it's good enough for me. As much as I like MGS4, I'd hate to see Little John doing backflips like his daddy... But I think it would be interesting to play as The Boss, before the events of MGS3, when she was sent out to space and all that stuff.

Other than remakes and retrospectives, I don't see any future for the MGS series.
If Kojima Productions (or Konami) wants to set a storyline in the year 2030 or whatever, they should make another series. A sci-fi stealth game would also be interesting (as long as it's not MGS).

Well from the stand point of Solid, Liquid and Solidus I thought it was pretty basic - that he had never intended them to happen, especially as a weapon used against him later in life.

But for the Gray Fox/Big Boss relationship that'd make a very epic game.

Yes, that would be an ideal angle. I think it is particularly important at this point that we get Konami's ear on the issue of whether or not the series will continue and what direction it takes if it does.

I would like to see a remake of mg1 and 2... I don't think a sequel of mgs4 is a option
You would probably see sniper wolf as a child soldier... and according to the database Vulcan Raven was also at Outer Heaven! Though snake would never encounter him there... it would be nice to see him again ^_^
I think it's time to finally have a remake of these 2 games...
