i think this game is lovley. It looks amazing, it's bonkers insane and it lets me play missions like GRAW meets FarCry meets Crysis. It's GTA for strategy shooter collector looting XP fans. It's just aces. I was hoping this gen would allow this sort of Vision with HD smooth visuals and I'd rather have three games a year of this quality, as compared to endless tat. A joy to play.

Beat the game. Its very good and addicting. In terms of gameplay the best MG game yet.
But the story feels disjointed. There is something wrong with it. Its probably because a lot of it is non linear, you can get situations in which cutscenes don't make sense in the way they follow eachother up.
The mandatory twist is hilariously bad.

Playing the PC version and finally had the time to dedicate to the prologue. Runs super smooth.
If I had to stack the opening hour of the game up against the other 4 core entries it'd come fifth if I'm being honest, I found myself getting kind of bored by it. Won't go into spoilers or anything but it's effectively a super scripted, linear drawn out tutorial. Having such a heavy handed experience whilst trying to get used to the poorly handled Kiefer as Snake makes it a bit jarring. I'm rolling with it as MGS has always suffered from too much waffle padding but by series standards it felt like a somewhat weak start.
However, I'm interested to get into Chapter 1 as that's where the meat of the game clearly opens up to the player. Nothing so far to suggest a bad game but my hype red flag remains raised.

Having downloaded my GZ save file, appears to have corrupted my PP save file... when i try to load my save file just continues to forever stay on the loading screen (where it shows you tips), but its not frozen as i can view different tips. I've tried deleting the patch and reinstalling the game but no luck always get stuck when trying to load the save file. also tried both connected to the servers and offline mode but same result.
Only option i can see is deleting my 18hour save file and starting from scratch, but not sure i can be bothered to start all over again. anyone else experinced anything similar or have any ideas of a potential fix? i'm playing on x360 btw

This just gets better. I'm at a mission that realistically I probably can't do without a rocket launcher, which I don't have. So, my choices are to develop a rocket launcher or find a way to do it without. Tempted to go for the latter. Maybe find a tank somewhere plus some carefully placed c4. Not like other metal gear solid games at all buy in its own right it is fantastic. Apologies for all the gushing but expect more over the coming weeks!

My 12 hours or so into the game have led me to think it's amazingly well made, but I suddenly feel a bit tired by it. A lot of the missions are similar and the only way to keep the motivation is to switch up how you tackle the missions. I don't have any compassion for any of the characters, more so the NPCs you're supposed to rescue every now and then. So why should I bother spending time going to get them?...
I think this all could be down the the type of player you are. If you don't have all that much time or will it might be a tough game to get through. You know you ought to listen to the tapes, read the motherbase stuff and micromanage it but meh.
Great game, but maybe 20 years too late for me.

Question. Given that a number of missions require me to actually kill people am I wasting my time not killing normal troops? I may as well kill as many as I like no?
