MGS5 Ideas

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if any of u have ideas for the next MGS game. It´s pretty hard to

think of something since MGS4´s end was... well...  more or less an END. Or at least the end of Snake.

 

I doubt Kojima will have Otacon sneaking through bases and taking down super soldiers. :smileyhappy:

Otacon and Sunny have to go sleuthing through the remains of the patriot network that was all but destroyed to find out if Rising counts as a spin off or not.

Re: MGS5 Ideas

The boss and the cobras in Normandy anyone?

 

Anyway, you can't keep doing prequels, whilst the story remains relatively easy to manipulate it becomes difficult to introduce more features into a game where chronologically you should have less. By that I mean no more stuff like octocamo etc etc. The further back you go the less stuff you have and this needs replacing with more features, MGS3 introduced camo and PW and PO are on limited hardware.

That said anything set after MGS4 would be terrible, and probably feature hideous retcons.

Re: MGS5 Ideas

I actually DON'T want to get into this, because I got into it when 4 was announced and all our guesses and speculation, and even our hopes meant nothing. MGS5 will be MGS5.
However, if you're asking me about MGS ideas for a new game... I could mention my MG1+2 remakes, The old 'play as young liquid' game, and my personal favourite... Meryl takes over Foxhound because Snake blew his own face off, and they simply hunt down and destroy 'naked weapons' that are being sold on the black market after the forced cease-fire that destroying the patriots caused on all modern weaponry.

I'm all for playing as The Boss, I think it could be quite good and it wouldn't fiddle with the story that's already set too much I wouldn't think... Could be wrong haha.

 

I remember ideas before on here about playing as Snake when Philanthropy started or whatever. (Think I spelt that wrong.)

So that would be set between MGS1 and MGS2.

I suppose they still could make a game set between MGS2 and MGS4 seeing as there is that gap still.

Think it's a gap of 5 years isn't it?

 

Either way no way will it be a sequel to MGS4 surely.

It's going to have to be a prequel to something.

Plus in that video Kojima spoke about The Boss and The Cobras at Normandy and all that so I suppose that's what it will be if anything.

Re: MGS5 Ideas

Everyone seems so sure they won't tell a story after 4, just because Solid Snake is old/useless/dead at that point?

Re: MGS5 Ideas

Not just because snakes dead, its just a well rounded end to a story, all the characters are dead/dying/married etc etc. The only characters left are those who aren't really strong enough to be a protagonist.

Re: MGS5 Ideas

Raiden has a robot body with 'asskick 2.0' installed on the HDD... Hideo's wanted to replace Snake with Raiden since MGS2. He was annoyed that everyone hated him.

Re: MGS5 Ideas

Make it so you make a character from scratch MGO style and then you pimp him/her out with different camouflage, weapons, gadgets etc. Story is about the gecko's and other weapons being taken control of by an anonymous terrorist group (because it always has to be some sort of terrorist) who you follow across 3 vast territories gathering info on and facing boss battles. You would also be able to play online in TDM and all that jazz aswell as a co-op mode which allows you to play with a team of 6 friends battling PMC army's, gecko's and metal gears through the main.
