Phantom Pain + Ground Zeroes = Metal Gear Solid 5
Kojima on the future of Metal Gear.
by Daemon Hatfield MARCH 27, 2013

Today at a panel during the Game Developers Conference, developer Hideo Kojima confirmed that both The Phantom Pain and Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes make up Metal Gear Solid 5.

We also learned that The Phantom Pain is an open-world game. Says Kojima, "The tutorial itself is a sequence where Snake wakes up from a coma after nine years."

A gameplay demo showed Snake escaping a facility and avoiding unknown enemies.

We noticed David Haytor is not reprising his role as snake -- the new actor is unknown at this time.

A Fox Engine demonstration showed how realistic these games should look:

The trailer opens with what appears to be Snake falling into a coma. Doctors struggle to revive him. But then it switched to show what looked like an old Snake shooting people from a helicopter.

The footage we saw combined material from the Phantom Pain stealth Metal Gear trailer and the Metal Gear Ground Zeroes trailer.

What's it all add up to?

"FOX vs. XOF"

Metal Gear Solid V.

Snake's been in a coma for nine years. Kojima said that Snake's movement is constrained because of that coma. The opening parts of the game will therefore be linear. It will then switch to an open-world type of game.

This was capped from GameSpot's livestream of Kojima's GDC press conference. Watch that here or here.

The trailer was shown to hype the game, of course, but also to hype Kojima Productions' FOX Engine. To show off its potential for realistic visuals, Kojima and his colleagues showed off some images from some items rendered in the engine. These are not photos.

    think its going to be the guy that played big boss in mgs4 richard doyle because he's older now in this game.
    the les enfant terible project happened 1972 before peacewalker 1974.

    Man this series is the ONLY video game I still play. This looks like typical Kojima, will probably be another awesome game. This gameplay was painful to watch though lol. Can anyone identify who the character on fire was? It looks like homie from MGS3 (Volgin)...but I may be wrong

    Annoyed bout David Hater not coming back but ? that looks dope. Another MGS to waste my life on. Thats the main reason I got a ps3 and if its on the ps4 will most likely be the reason I get. Amazing series and always gets me thinking in the end. Snake is the best character in gaming history in my opinion but I'm a fanboy lol

    got this from wiki:
    As in Peace Walker, The Phantom Pain will offer a base-building feature that allows player to develop weapons and items from their virtual motherbase. The player is also given the ability to access the motherbase from their real-life smartphones.[7] Series director Hideo Kojima revealed that the game has a new day and night cycle that runs in real-time, and that "depending on how you travel between one stage to the next, [the] travel time will affect the time of day when you arrive at your destination".[8] A new gameplay direction will allow the player to choose in what order the story events take place by selecting missions in any order they like, and yet still "understand the encompassing message by the end".[9][10]

    Hideo Kojima has recently spoken about the restrictive nature of previous Metal Gear titles, saying that they "set [the player] on one rail to get from point A to point B, with a certain amount of freedom between". In stark contrast, Kojima's team will instead offer the player new ways of traversal and sneaking methods, such as taking a plane, helicopter or motorcycle to the mission area. This is in order for Kojima to accomplish a "true open world experience" with The Phantom Pain.

    watch that link i posted up top. The Core of MGS: Ground Zeroes (GDC 2013 Panel) [11am PDT] the panel starts at 23 minutes into it. they show how they get the models in the game and the process of scaning it into the game then do a 360 virtual scan in the game engine itself. and they are trying to sell the fox engine to other developers for their games.

    the pic with the guns on a shelf is kojimapro's conference room they used that as a base model to test objects they put into the game the one dev said he was playing around with it and a employee walked by thinking they put security cameras in the conference room thats how real it looks.
