Maybe it's actually metal gear solid v, not five. And then they'll release mgs5 next year.

Well if you want to pay double for a copy of MGS and live in NYC people have copies and are selling them on Craigslist.

I played it for like 4 hours yesterday and when I loaded it up again earlier the title screen said I was 2% complete. I played another 4 hours today, and I haven't even seen Quiet yet, yet alone gotten out of Afghanistan. This game is massive. Its a huge toy set and there is never a dull moment.
Isn't Afghanistan like, half the game? I thought it was split into Afghanistan and Africa so I figured it was 50/50.

Speaking of preloads, the last thread mentioned a way to queue a game in Steam to begin downloading as soon as it's released via the mobile app, as you can't do it on your PC directly for some reason. How do you do that?

Go into library (on the android app) and looking for the title and select the icon next to it.

It doesn't appear on the mobile app for me yet, but I tested today (with some bundle fodder game) - if you leave your computer on at home, you can log in via the app on your phone and tell your computer to start downloading. So I'm going to do that when it becomes available.

There's very few details when it comes to MGO. One thing is that it's 8v8 on current-gen and 6v6 on 360/PS3. There's also this trailer with commentary detailing some mechanics:

I was looking for details about Phantom Pain's online stuff specifically. Like I guess there's the whole FOB PvP thing but I was hoping there was an in depth preview somewhere. Also I'm wondering if there's anything else you can do online.

Yep, that's what I did for Shadowrun and it worked perfectly.

When you're poking around, be sure to not confuse Foward Operating Based with 'Metal Gear Online'. They're being handled separately.

Its feels so bizarre that MGS V is going to be worth the hype, loved by most reviewers, but at the same time "LOL gently caress KONAMI!"

V has come to, and crippled Konami in the process. :downswords:

Each one is more like 40/40, with the last 20% being other things.

And Afghanistan and Africa both kind of feel dull by the end of it.
