This Looks Like One of the Dumbest Games Ever

I'm all for Kojimas humor in the past MGS games, I really enjoy it (that's not counting mgs4 for obvious reasons)

This game seriously look fucking stupid to say the least, I just watched the Easter trailer or whatever it is Assassin's Stealth (the fuck is that the title isn't even clever)

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/assassins-stealth-metal-gear/64056?type=flv

Here it is if you wanna watch it, but prepare for 5 minutes of facepalming.

I'm gonna fucking unleash, because as a huge MGS fan I'm so disappointed to what's happening to the MGS franchise. Have they given up? Love Boxes? I mean really, two people running around in a box... Just.. God damit..

The gameplay looks like it'll be one of those games that after like 46 hours of playtime you'll enjoy it due to the shitty controls, and YES I played the demo and the controls are awful, why anybody would ever say they're good, is way beyond me.

Portable Ops even had a better control setup than this shit. And what's with the shaky cam? It's like they're taking away everything that made MGS - MGS!

Before we had very fluid gameplay, fast paced (if you want to) that looks very natural, maybe not realistic, but it flows on very well, playing it feels smooth. But this garbage.. What the hell. The shaky cam is just stupid, you use that for FPS games not TPS games.

Characters look stupid. Miller looks like some douchebag asshole that has an obsession of looking pretty. The girls in the game looks like cartoon final fantasy characters.

So basically nothing in this game interests me. I doubt I can even force myself to play through it just for the story. I have a feeling it'll be so fucking stupid I might just break my PSP out of frustration.

So

/RANT/RAGE.

This was my opinion on this game, as a long time HUGE MGS fan. Personally I'm gonna give Splinter Cell Conviction a try, the demo was pretty decent, story seems like ass. But hell.. Gameplay is a lot of fun. I'd never place a Splinter Cell game before MGS, infact I never have. I've played Splinter Cell like 4 times before, never liked them. But I need some type of stealth game, and I actually enjoyed the demo, so.. I guess I'll check that out.

Why anybody says the controls are good is because unlike MPO, the controls aren't cluttered. Things are simple, and more fluid, movement and gunplay is more enjoyable, as is the stealth aspect. Some things were removed and traded for what makes the actual gameplay more enjoyable. Losing FPV for OTS, losing crawling for crouch movement, losing moving across walls for pressing against walls and crouch press. Not to mention the new CQC aspects, Co-Op mode and massive variety of weapons.

All this extra stuff such as Monster Hunter and Motherbase customization is purely an added perk. Would you rather have no extra content what so ever? That's how you find games that end up never being played again after you beat them, just like MGS1 or MPO after you got bored of online.

Basically everything you said seems to be on a 100% superficial basis:

Miller wears a scarf and shades. Because a guy dresses a certain way it bugs you? The girls in all MGS games have always had this kinda perk. Mei Ling, EE, Rose, Para-Medic, Elisa, Sunny, why should PW be any different?

What does shaky camera have to do with MGS? Furthermore, MPO had a garbage control scheme which while having everything MGS3 had, was a pain in the ass to figure out on a handheld system like the PSP. Once you got the hang of it, you either liked it or you didn't. I liked it, grew bored of it, moved on. PW's demo alone, has a more solid shooter and stealth movement feel in its simpler controls, crouching and moving slow without having to press Triangle, kind of a very big perk on not alerting guards. Taking down groups with the new powerhouse CQC, a very big plus when you're swamped.

Does an item that you don't even have to use, and is just there as an added perk really bug you THAT much? If so, why? Seems incredibly immature in my opinion.

Nothing to really say to that, other than "Hahahahahahaha....ohhhh that put me in a good humor." *Wears monocle.*

I rest my case. This looks like a game with an incredible amount of actual gameplay and enjoyment attached. A game that hasn't even been released. And you're basing these nonsensical opinions on extra content? Do you see what I'm getting at here? Basically what I'm saying is that this topic is incredibly immature, and based on little to no actual fact what so ever. Even everything you said about the demo was inaccurate.

Rage Rants, are never things you ever want to post. They only end in chuckles, nothing else.

I personally like Miller's design and the shakey cam. I haven't played the demo though, so I dunno about the controls, but I saw a picture of the button functions and it seems like the best they can do with the PSP's lack of a R stick and secondary shoulder buttons.

However I want to know:is the straw box a serious aspect of the gameplay or is this just for some easter joke? Because this is one thing that annoys me.

It looks like the straw box will be in it as a bonus item, much like the Altair costume in MGS4.

Once again, just another added perk, even if you do have to use it at one point, it's an extra bonus, nothing more. Use it, don't use, point is, it's there.

SSS I've enjoyed your posts around the forum a lot but I think this is asking for trouble tbh.

I agree in a way and about a few things about things going too far at times, the stealth ray, tank box, etc. I mean I love the idea of stealth mats and a number of the new gameplay elements in the game, and while some are a little too far for me personally, it won't ruin the game for me and it will all add to a really different Metal Gear game gameplay-wise, so far be I to complain.
Watch this space.

Do shut up. :glare:

It looks epic. Agree. AGREE!

It's been proven you can play through the game the classic way, so enjoy it that way. There are MASSES of added bonuses and perks for those who want them. It's all optional.

Moaning about it makes you look very stupid, doesn't it? Yes, it does.

All it comes down to now, is the story.

I don't even consider this an MGS game. Whenever I look at trailers for it, it just pisses me off. Same goes for people I know that love the MGS series, they all just facepalm and wonder what the series has come to.

I didn't expect support, it's my opinion on the game, I dont' want trouble with others. I just made the thread because the Easter Egg trailer just hit a fuse, it looks so incredibly dumb that I had to make a thread about it.

And what is it that you and your friends have concluded that the series has become?

At first, I kinda thought like you, The Rail, the Goshtbuster ray and all those things (the assassins creed easter). But then I thought:
Let's not forget this is a Japanese game, MGS4 was westernised and it didn't go as expected (I think) so they went back to things Japanese people like. For example, Nobody in the west likes Raiden, except for a few (me included) but the Japanese like him. So, I'll try not to care too much and try to enjoy it anyways.

It's like watching a mute Chaplin film. You won't enjoy the film expecting to see an Adam Sandler movie, you've got to watch it considering the historical moment in wich it was filmed, and why it's considered a classic.

PS: Sorry If I'm hard to understand. It's just that English isn't my mother language.

I feel ya, Triple S. Maybe not to the extent of your anger but maybe it's because I've come to accept that the magic I felt with games like MGS1, and other games in that era, will never be felt again.

I'm still happy they're making games in the series because there are series that I enjoyed that have been dropped and the feeling of knowing there won't be any more of those games is bad. It's not as bad as having the series completely raped and ruined but, I hardly think that's what's happening here.

If Konami just pumped out sequel after sequel, keeping to the same formula every single time... would I be happy about that? Maybe... but I would also complain about how incredibly stale it would become. I'm not happy about the controls myself but I never played MPO so, I don't know how much of an improvement they are. I've just never been able to get a handle on playing these types of games on PSP.

I'm really getting my hopes up, though. I want to enjoy it. I hope you give it a chance, too. One thing that I've always tried to do was never pass judgment on a game until I played the full version. This is no exception.

I don't know if you've seen this video, yet but, it doesn't have anything besides gameplay to show and when I watched it, I got excited: http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/28745

These other gimicky videos we've been seeing lately don't really affect what really makes a MGS game: the story, the snake, and the gameplay. That's what it's all going to come down to for me.

It's great that they're focusing more on the japanese market such as what they did with MGS1, MGS2 and MGS3. But the way the game plays doesn't interest me, it looks odd, it looks too slow.

If they were to make another MGS for the Japanese market I'd prefer it if they did it on Playstation 3 and maybe go back to it's routes. Peace Walker has all these wierd features that look clunky and not satisfying to use. Like what the hell is that parachute thing you pull on your enemies which sends them flying up to the sky? It just looks dumb.

And that flying thing. This is the 70's right? Why is it that there's more advanced "Metal Gears" then there were in 2005-2014. Doesn't make much sense and seems to be just bad writing.

The Co-op looks terrible too. Basically after hearing what Kojima has talked about in interviews he basically wants to create another Pokemon game, or atleast something like it. He talks how kids can't be assed playing on their consoles that they like to get together on school and play games together trade items or whatever.

And for that he desides to change the entire MGS formula? C'mon.

Also I like Adam Sandler movies xD

The CO OP is the best I've ever played. Have you played it?

How is this not old school? :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dte4Lstbvag

All the new features are optional. You're moaning about something you don't have to use.
