It started 1984 and ends ?; What do you think in which year ends Phantom Pain

Another topic i want discuss with you guys.
When we look back Sons of Liberty was so far the only Game in the Franchise that took place in 2 different years 2007 and 2009.
We all know 1984 Phantom Pain starts with the Hospital but i cant really imagine it ends in the same year.
My hopes the game ends/the last act 1995 or even 1999 to go full circle in the most satisfying way possible for us MGS Fans.
A Metal Gear 1+2 Remake is always i dreamed of but now with the future depature from Kojima after MGS V this seems not more possible in the way I wanted. I dont give a fuck about future MGS Games without Hideo maybe only a Rising 2 with Platinum.

So what do you guys think? When ends the Story of Phantom Pain? Solid Snake vs Big Boss at the end a realistic hope?

A final boss fight against Solid Snake in 1995 would be perfect in my opinion. They wouldn't even have to include the MG1/2 remakes. Just the 'normal' last boss fight, credits, time line which ends in 1995 and the real final boss battle against Solid Snake.

But I don't wanna get my hopes up too high because it would probably end in disappointment.

I can't imagine it being only one year. The events of Peacewalker to Ground Zeros happened between a span of 2 years (74-75) If TPP is going to go on like a TV series, I'd hope we'd at least get 4 seasons (chapters).

...With us knowing how MGSV Peace Walker had its true ending locked behind some grinding I expect something similar with The Phantom Pain. So when do I believe the 'Main Campaign ends' I believe it will cut off at 1986 and the hidden ending is a new interpretation of The Outer Heaven Uprising in 95 to fit with what was established in MGSV TPP.

It could be, although the song from the last trailer is from 1985 if I am not mistaken.

Chapter 1-4 of PW only span 3 weeks. The developments of Chapter 5 take another 4 months according to GZ. It's not a span of 2 years it just happens to cross over a new year.

Yeah, and the Walkman was made in 1979 and used in 1974 :D

This was my initial prediction and I was about 90% sure it would happen. It would then lead to remakes (or one remake) of the Metal Gear games. However with the KP/Konami situation I don't think it has any chance.
Watch this space.

I think the campaign will all take place in 1984 and possibly 1985 and the players actions thereafter will essentially fill in the ten year time gap i.e. the timeline will be A, B and C happened in 84/85 and Big Boss spent the next ten years creating a vast military fortress state in South Africa which would be home to his new PMC Outer Heaven Inc.

Maybe the game will end when Big Boss recruits Solid Snake in the Foxhound unit. He was recruited after the Afghanistan conflict, around 1991 when he was a teen.

Big Boss vs Solid Snake makes for me sense just because every main MGS Game had a great final battle:
Liquid vs Solid, Solidus vs Raiden, The Boss vs Naked Snake, Liquid Ocelot vs Old Snake. All amazing.
I cant imagine that Hideo and his Team dont give us a proper final battle and Big Boss vs Solid Snake would be the only possible conclusion for me.

Rest assured there won't be any MG and MG2 content in TPP because Konami will be wanting to milk that cow with separate games in the future.

If it were to end with Big Boss fighting Solid Snake, and YOU are playing as Big Boss, watching everything begin to crumble & seeing all the hard work you've done in this game get taken as the game forces you to lose, with emotional epic music playing in the background, and we finally get to witness Big Boss tell Solid that he is his son, I will die as a happy man.

I dunno, but I can see the story play out over a couple of years in TPP. I wouldn't go as far as 1999 though.

At this point, I think we can be sure that the game starts and ends in 1984, the story spanning over several years would've been something they'd have mentioned by now if that were the case, or they could do it like Portable Ops where you can get the date to go on but it doesn't keep going past a certain point.

Pretty sure nothing has ever actually said what year Snake was recruited into FOXHOUND, just that he was recruited sometime after the Gulf war.
