Hmm, on the hand a sniper battle with Quiet sounds totally awesome.

On the other hand I want her as a buddy. Mostly so I can set the helicopter music to play Maneater whenever it drops her off.

Oh really when?

Can you set up the helicopter music so it plays different songs for different things?

I hope so. If not I'm fine with playing Maneater for everything.

I like Hall and Oates.

Shit, we've been thinking about it all wrong. The Man Who Sold The World isn't a specific character like Big Boss or Zero or a title for Skull Face, it's a song about a doppelgänger(which BB is seeing a lot of in V from the looks of things) by Bowie.

I knew it was a song and what the song was about.

...And a doppleganger would still be a character?

I still like the idea that XOF is formed from FOXHOUND somehow.

To hear Code Talker's VA since we've never heard him before in a game unlike the JP VA's for Zero, Skull Face and BB or to hear how different Skull Face sound in japanese?

Why would we care what a native american character sounds like in Japanese?

Especially when he's actually played by a native american in the English version?

Especially when said American Indian actor makes me question my sexuality. I mean, he also spoke in the English trailer, but Jay Tavare being hot is clearly more important.

...So Konami is going to be merchandising Kojima's fashion choices while also firing him.

Also this pretty much confirms that Kojima is a recruit in the game again.

Konami is probably going to be profiting off this game for at least a few months into next year. Given all the DLC and pay to play and game of the year editions and things.

The fact that Kojima's image is one of the things they're going to be profiting on is.

...Like, I wouldn't be surprised if Kojima was okay with it on some level. He's an artist and an egotist, so his image is everything.

But the fact that the people firing him are probably going to make more money off it than he is still makes me kinda sick.

So after watching the trailer for the 8 millionth time I have a question; what exactly is hitting the window at the 3:19 mark? It's obviously a body, but something about it always looked off in some way.

Also, is anyone else disappointed that we probably won't be able to listen to most of the trailer music in the game? Sins of the Father is probably the only one that would be in it as the rest (Not your Kind of People, Nuclear, and New Order) all came out after 1984.

From freezing and zooming in it looks like a more bloated version of the zombies. Looks male.

Edition info with Shinkawa art of Quiet and others.

The Metal Gear has this in japanese:

Metal Gear ST-84

A soviet weapon, which Dr. Emmerich (Huey) is suspected to have helped develop. Height in neutral position estimated at 15m. Its capabilities, purpose, and level of completion are unknown.

So does anyone know what the dealio is with the Skulls?

...I kinda noticed that the female members that show up in the recent trailer have a similar smoke thingy when they materialize to Quiet's powers.

I brought it up a few pages ago. The fact that the new concept art points out that she's out on a unknown mission is probably related to them.

A scout and sniper whose special abilities allow her to stalk her prey without being seen or heard. To the soviets she is feared as (russian letters) which means Quiet.

True to her name, she never speaks, answers to interrogation or even communicates through writing. Despite this, she grows to share a bond of mutual understanding with Snake.

Quiet came here to fulfill some objective. To kill you, maybe to destroy Diamond Dogs.

...I didn't notice the "bloating" thing in them or in Quiet.

Just the sort of red smoke when they appear and disappear seems similar.
