Anybody noticed this item during the box demo if not check this out and pause it at 21:39

I'm thinking that it is used to skip time as shown in E3 2013 trailer :)

I know it is old news but now it is confirmed ;)

And we don't know it may have a different use.

I hope that's not the use of that cigar. Imagine you select the item by mistake and the time passes fast, then you ruin your operation because you wanted to go at night but now it's daylight.

I was really hoping the cigar could be used like MGS4: to calm down Snake when he is stressed. But now that we see there's no stamina measure of any kind, well bye that option.

I imagine it would be something like you equip it then hold the binocular button down to fast forward time, release to return to normal and gain control of character again.

I'm sure skipping time is in the pause or iDroid if still available. Simply selecting it won't change time.

I agree, could have a button in the idroid menu that makes him turn over his wrist so you can see his watch.
It still looks like the game only has a carry limit of 4 items, so I don't think they should use up one of them with a time skip device.

Look sir, droids

If it's not for time skipping, then what is it for? Just for the laughs? There's not even the health bar anymore. Oh wait, hidden traps.

If they give the smell detection capability for enemies, you might use it to attract them to you. Besides, wasn't there some talk that Big Boss is smoking e-cigar on TPP?

It's an electronic cigar...there's no point in having a health bar to show your health going down with it because it wouldn't be going down anyway.

Exactly, an early trailer, things change all the time from early trailers to the actual game.

So it would seem that the "Phantom Cigar" is actually a real thing, and the brand's symbol is a picture of an octopus.

I'm not even kidding.

Octopus? For real? Could it be? Ishmael ? Medic? Decoy...?

His past is a blur. We know he doesn't have ears for an unknown reason. Was the chopper the reason for his identity being taken away? Could decoy octopus be this Ishmael character? Maybe I'm thinking into it too much.....but it seems like a hint.

Well I was just joking about this being a reference to Decoy Octopus, but sure.
