Hey,

I was re-watching MGSV trailers and an eye patch related difference got my attention.
In GZ, the eye patch is attached with two strings:
Spoiler: click to toggle

In TPP, the same eye patch is attached with three strings:
Spoiler: click to toggle


Why? :P

Welcome to a year ago :P

Anyways, we don't know why exactly, but it might be something like a customization feature. It could also be to better hold the eyepatch, what with all the sandstorms in Afghanistan and all that.

I'd not noticed this, where does the third strap go? Is it like a g-string?

Fast and Correct!
Nah, it's Big Boss.

Decoy Octopus is there as well, pretending to be the eyepatch itself. Look close enough and you'll see it.

It's just a different eye patch... No different than one coat versus another that has more buttons.

It's probably an indicator of Snake changing. First, he's ditching cigars, wears different clothes including a new eyepatch, etc. It's probably symbolism that Snake's gonna abandon a lot of 'iconic'/familiar stuff in his descent into a villain.

The eyepatch is a really minor thing, though - the other stuff is far more significant.

Still we carry you.

The third strap links directly into his brain. Inside the patch is an array of sensors and acts as a revamped iDroid. We've already seen Big Boss activating the eye patch in last years E3 trailer, so it's all fact ;)

This answer both shatters and sums up every wacky MGS theory in a nutshell. xD
