Hypothetically speaking, would you guys donate to a MGSVI kickstarter if it meant the series would continue on?
>stretch goal:joost
All my money
I'm not going to beg for games, especially from Kike-ami.
No.
What would MGS6 even be about?
Hopefully konami knows how not to make another shit tier meta gay shit game

Erm, sure if they improved the gameplay, though it would have to be very very impressive for me to give any money for a kickstarter.
>>315267513
It'll be the other half released of MGSV repackaged as Twin Ground Heros.

Man that's pretty bad for how much of a legacy that franchise has and how long it was in development.
No, and I say this as a longtime MGS fan. Let it die already.

>>315267661
That would be interesting, but would it be necessary. Each major title kind of needs some sort of lore-related implications of the series as a whole to justify its own existence and I don't really know how they would pull that off with the Boss in WWII

>>315267513
I'm not if anyone but Kojima could do it. The story is so crazy that only he can make it work somehow. Rising was a casual take on the lore but even they couldn't really understand it.

Konami was a gym group originally investing in physical fitness clubs before moving into things like toys, then gambling machines and finally gaming.
All the same though, fuck them.

Must be nice being a bandwagonning faggot
>>315267513
they"cut snake head and made him a cyborg
>>315267348
Not without Kojima working on it, and even then it's iffy. MGSV had so much micro-transaction shit so i can only imagine that Konami would find a way to jew it up even more if the series continued.
What I want from Kojima now is a Zone of the Enders 3, that'd be rad.
No. MGS is dead to me. It had been since 4 and TPP was a disaster
>>315267638
>>315267835
>>315267715
Where does Revengeance lie anyway? I've heard both canon and noncanon and a couple people say it's a 'what if' alternate timeline. Like if a mission went wrong somewhere, Revengeance would be the result. If the mission went off without a hitch it wouldn't have happened.
They already developed the Fox engine, it shouldn't be too costly to shit out another game using the same engine.
>>315267942
Konami is going to send his old apprentice to assassinate him in a recreation of MGS1's development.
MGSVI will only work if they get rid of Kojima. He's the fucking Japanese Tim Schaffer. He can't handle budgets or the business side of games. Konami should just sell or license it out to Activision if they want it to be successful

Konami only made good games by accident because they somehow didn't make working conditions shitty enough for the teams that went on to do something worthwhile. They're not worth dickriding on name alone.

I think Kojima has to be on a leash. Somebody has to hold him off on his ambitions, that way he can create something good. But now, I'm afraid, he's too far up his own arse for his own good.
>>315268093
It lies a few years after MGS4.
I have no fucking idea why people are saying it's non-canon, as it doesn't seem to do anything that breaks it.
>>315268093

That faggot Razorfist was right. It was a rus3 all along and Kojima is not leaving Konami.

Not sure about donating anything but zero interest unless I get confirmation that Kojima doesn't fucking touch the game anymore
>>315267513
You play as Liquidis Snake, a failed abortion from the les enfants terribles project, who sports two eyepatches and a hefty dose of autism.
>>315267513
I'm hype solely because of Fox engine, it depends a lot if Kojima will be directing though, otherwise it will be another Dark Souls 2.
>>315267513
Maybe about liquid
I'm making assumptions here;
-Kojima is under a hush order or something via contract reasons or something
-Konami did this because they don't want other companies trying to snatch up a big name such as that right up. I don't know why, though, as they're not even sure what they want to do for consoles/pc.
>>315267348
Id rather have them just make Foxengine open to other developers.
>>315267348
What? Is Konami planning to buy Fox Engine to milk the shit out of it?
>>315267513
Remakes of MG 1 and 2
>>315267513
The missing link in the Metal Gear Story about Big Boss's fall from a hero to a villain, for realsies. :^)
Does the next game honestly need to have that big of a budget? I'm more than willing to see how another game fairs when you take Kojima out of the equation.
>>315268638
If I am not mistaken Konami allready owns the rights to the engine
>>315268675
Yeah, really.
BB's actual story is more interesting than his phantom's story.
>>315268638
Dude, they own it. It was developed in their house.
>>315267513
You play as old Kaz defending himself from the assassins who tried to kill him.In the end you dieThe game is 20 minutes long because Konami ran out of moneyYou'd still preorder it
>inb4 MGS 6 is literally just the scraps of chapter 3
>>315268841
the Kingdom of the Flies mission?
>>315267348
Daily reminder that we got MGS V, not MGS5.
V as in Venom. Kojima insists in it being called V instead of 5. It is not a numbered sequel.
Metal Gear Solid Vee
>>315268768
>>315268675
What's there to actually say, though? He built Outer Heaven and went crazy, that's pretty much all there is, unless you're looking for a story that would be incredibly self-contained because nothing is going to inherently matter in that game other than Big Boss going crazy. The villain himself will just be another disposable figure who'll never be referenced in the canon, ever.
I hope not.
>>315267348
>>Seeing how Konami took Kojima’s name off The Phantom Pain’s box art, dissolved his studio, and canned Silent Hills, it’s hard to see him staying on.

It's a shitty excuse as they totally fucking try to do it, but legally that's why it's the way it is.
>>315268991
So, a remake of Metal Gear 1, yes?
>>315268886
I cant imagine theres only that. They must have planned to do more with that island than just the sally fight. Sally is obviously the last mission of that zone but I imagine that there are more mission concidering XOF is at the island too
>>315267638
>Implying MGS6 will be canon
Id rather they finished the one we just got. Give up back an entire chapter 3 and finish the fucking story.
Fuck no.
>>315268419
Not him, but are you seriously defending the company that decided to stop making games and instead make pachinko machines?
>>315268043
>>315268141
He called you out on liking RWBY.
>>315268926
Foxhound (ie, back in the US), Iraq, Zanzibar, etc.
Basically, a MGSV that actually fits already canon events, not what amounts to a footnote in the timeline.
>>315269068
yes, mite be cool.
>>315268542
This would be shit. It was retarded when they stupidly tried to turn Big Boss and Ocelot into the good guys.
>>315269104
Footage shows him sneaking into the island to find Eli and the kids, then fighting Sally.
If anything, it'd just be the two missions and post-game free roam on it.
>>315269191
Nah Konami is dead to me but all that FucKonami bullshit just because that fat fuck is blacklisted by konami is just annoying
>>315267348
What they should do is allow MGSV to be finished. They have so much of it finished. I just don't understand them. Get a small team together to fucking finish it.
Konami want out of games so the can focus on gambling and Vegas deals that will make them billions, but now that MGSV was a success, they want back into video games? They could have done both. With over eighty billion dollardoos coming into the company they could easily make more games without ever worrying about cost. I just don't understand why they have to have such singular focus.
I really don't want a Metal Gear without all the people that make Metal Gear enjoyable. Let the property rest. It's had a hard life.
>>315267795
>Have to pay devs to start developing a game
>No promises about quality or fucking anything
>Might still have to buy the game later
Kickstarter is fucking terrible, and only a fool would throw money at a theoretical concept before it has been fleshed out. Donating to convince them to think about making another game is beyond retarded
>>315267575
>implying next game won't be revengeance 2 focusing on Raiden having to track down and defeat a Metal Gear version of solid snake
FINAL MISSION: DEFEAT METAL GEAR SOLID
>>315269104
They should just make a DLC out of it. They could charge a cool 60 bucks and won't even need to spend a lot on development.
>>315269257
Would they even be able to build a three act storyline around that, though? There isn't really all that much to go off from what you've said.
I can't see it really going anywhere other than stating that 'Big Boss found Zanzibarland and see it for yourself'.
There isn't really much to fundamentally say storywise, other than stating the obvious by showing things people are already aware of in the lore.
>>315269503
>60 bucks for what amounts to two missions
man fuck off
>>315269297
I cant see why it has to be about how liquid is a good guy. Theres lots of things you could to to expand on liquid. For example it could be about his mission in Afghanistan.
>>315269503
>60 dollars for DLC
would you seriously pay that much money?
>>315267654
The game is still selling every week. It has legs. Konami made back everything they invested into the game literally overnight.

I like how there's not a single shed of proof that this is what happened and this faggot here is passing rumours as fact a mere 3 months later. Vidya journalism is a joke.
>>315267683
That's kind of how it has been for fucking years guy.
>>315269639
Except MGS themes are always anti war. Therefore it's impossible they will give you a game without an option to do a no kill run. Why the fuck would Liquid want to do that?
>>315269758
>I like how there's not a single shed of proof that this is what happened

>>315269818
>MGS themes are always anti war
wut
Considering how cut and dry the original MSX games were, remakes of them might work. Or even have each operation be half of the game and have it be all huge complex infiltration goodness in the fox engine, none of the open world shit. Have bro ops with Gray Fox during the first half of the game which then culminates in the mine field fight in the second half for muh feels. Poke some fun at how silly Big Medic is and it'd have a good chance of being a good game, especially without Kojimas hamfisted messages.

>>315269426
Konami was never planning to leave making games, they just fired Kojima because he was an awful VP who was wasting huge amounts of money.
They canceled Silent Hills because it was going to be another huge money pit. There is no reason to waste money on risky projects when they can just make mobile shit that prints money.
MGS managed to sell well enough to make a profit so they are going ahead with that series. They might even keep Kojima along so his mindless fanboys can be happy.
>>315267348
They can't possibly believe that these Kojima cocksuckers would ever buy a MGS game without him directing it.
It would be a disaster of a launch.

>>315270283
Rising did really well. The hardcore fans are slowly starting to like it for it's own merits. This means someone else could do pretty well if they got their hands on the franchise.
>>315268135
Jesus Christ. He was Vice President of Konami Digital Entertainment. He clearly can handle finance. It is just that the people at the top of Konami are old money retards that don't understand how much a 'AAA' title costs. They were angry that he spent $81 million dollars on MGSV. That included the cost of the fucking FOX ENGINE.
>>315267348
>implying anybody is going to buy another metal gear game after giving us an incomplete game
maybe only PS4 faggots considering they buy remastered games that only came last gen
>>315270383
There is a difference between Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Rising. I wouldn't want Platinum in charge of MGS, I barely want them in charge of MGR2.
That being said I would buy MGS6 with or without Kojima. Portable Ops was better than Peace Walkerand 3, sorryand Kojima being salty about it is evident of what a crackjob he is.
>>315270456
10/10 everywhere and even the jaded said the gameplay was pretty good, if repetitive. People will get it. IGN et al will hype that shit up.
>>315270283
Every single review agreed that the worst part of MGSV was the story. Konami has been building a consensus in which everyone accepts that Kojima was a shit writer all along.
Because he was a shit writer all along. And most sensible people are now accepting that fact.
>>315270078
they are
>>315270383
But that was a spinoff originally headed by Kojima until he passed it off to Platinum. Maybe the Rising series can continue, but MGS is done without Kojima. His fans won't betray him.
>>315270558
Oh god, I wouldn't want platinum doing a "solid" game, I just meant a precedent has been set where the fans find others doing metal gear acceptable.
>>315270426
He would have spent a lot more if he wasnt fired.

>Every single review agreed that the worst part of MGSV was the story

>>315270639
Early on he had control, I'm pretty sure later he gave full control to platinum which is why the game turned out so differently.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okQv5zSSfOk
>>315268225
That's just it. It doesn't affect anything concerning the MGS mythos so it's none canon by default.
>>315270639
The silent majority doesnt care about Kojimbo.
>>315268612
A gag order is standard practice when you 'let a high level employee with trade secrets' go. They don't want him to be able to immediately form a competing company, or join an existing company and start work on another game/game engine.
>>315270274
Agreed about Kojima. There's 3 people in this industry that should always have a retard wrangler to stop them going full retard.
Kojima, Kamiya and Nomura. The holy trinity of people who should never be solely in charge of a project or franchise.

Yeah, because the last MGS without Kojima was sooooo great
>>315271196
They literally don't matter anon. You should know better.
>>315270105
> cut and dry
Metal Gear 2 beats MGS1 on every aspect except the story.
>>315267513
How about what the fuck MGSVI was advertised about, Big Boss road to hell as he became an ethically depraved soldier who started using child soldier because why the fuck not, instead of the Good Guy Venom who wouldn't let a kid die to save his life.
I can see it in front of me.
"In MGSV, we have Big Bossu and Venom, we have vee and i, where you are vee and i am i, and you will find the missing pieces between what snake and big boss that lead up to outer haven and zanzibar land. Did you rike it? =^)"
Fuck Kojima.
FYI - Kojima is 52. The stupid cyborg game he shit out and this TPP turd all falls within his midlife crisis.
>>315271309
Not even the same anon, but you're an idiot if you cant see how MGSV on 4 is under tracking against 4. Its right there. And its on 5 platforms you moron.
>>315270740
That's the most retarded reasoning I've ever stumbled upon.
>>315267348
If Kojima is involved I would. Otherwise fuck no
I would rather Silent Hills though
>>315271345
Rising waa the best Metal Gear game, and Kojimbo wasn't involved with it beyond the initial concept.
>>315271245
But part of MGS's shtick is the near cult of personality built around the series director. You need to cultivate that.
>>315271389
I don't understand your argument. Who cares if it's selling less on the PS4 than MGS4 did on the PS3. Why does that matter?
>>315271389
>not the same aon, for real f@m
>sperging this hard
Stay mad autist
>>315271316
Only thing really wrong with Portable Ops is the controls, I enjoyed it, Roy Campbell should have been Kaz though, looking back
>>315267561
They have a "big wheel of businesses" to decide what kind of company they are and they spin it every year anew.
>>315271465
Yeah, I think Kojmia is really fucking drained from metal gear, give him some new shit. In PT you could tell he was motivated as hell considering all the fresh new ideas there were.
A full game would of been fucking amazing. Like even if he fucked it up, it still would of been good if PT's quality is anything to go by.
>>315271492
He's a mad faggot because MGSV is a success.
Also, he's not >>315271138
LEL
>>315271482
The fucking MGS games have beeb about how cukt of personality is a fucking awful thing ever since MGS3.
>>315271471
Rising needs to be treated separately considering how different the gameplay is.
I think V is the best mechanically but in terms of sticking to the MGS 1 paradigm of stealth, 3 takes the cake.
Peace walker is thematically the grandest metal gear though.
>>315268135
Didn't he do this job for 30 Metal Gear games and some mecha games? I highly doubt that's his problem.
>>315270274
Except for the fact that they shut down all of the studios making video games, and fired anyone that didn't take a job making 'mobile games' read 'slot machines'. MGSV is far from a money pit. It cost the company $81 million dollars, and that includes the cost of an entirely new game engine. $81 million is fucking nothing.
They cancelled Silent Hills because they don't want to make games any more. Look at the people that bought a PS4 just to play P.T. For a while people were selling PS4s on ebay for over a grand, because their systems still had P.T. on it. To say that Silent Hills was going to be a money pit is crazy. It was no risk involved. Silent Hills would have out sold MGSV, because Silent Hills appeals to a larger crowd. Also, Konami doesn't understand the western game market at all.

Mgs3 plays nothing like the first MGS.
MGSV is what MGS3 was meant to be gameplay wise.
>>315270667
Yes he would, and we would have a finished game that still turned a MASSIVE profit. Konami's upper management are myopic.

He was VP of Konami for 4 years and most games released during that time were awful. He even fucked up several ports.
>>315271328
Story was mainly what I was referring to. Redoing some of the set pieces from the games would be quite interesting.
>>315271807

Tell that to Conan O'Brien.
Sorry that I couldn't remember the name. You are right that it is a non-compete, and my description of the non-compete was spot on except what it is called.
>>315271807
Silent Hill games sell nowhere near the amount MGS game does. Kojima was going to kill the company out of naivete.
>>315271921
If he spended more money then the game would have made no profit at all due ro the insane costs,
We dont even know if 5 million is enough to cover the costs of the game as it was released.
>>315267348
FUCK NO.
It's insulting what even became of this series story and gameplay wise.
>implying HIDEO and KOJIMA are the same person
Kojima will come soon enough with the REAL MGSV, Baby. Hideo was just a testing ruse.
>>315267348
Fuck no. The whole idea of Kickstarter was to allow people to independently fund projects, not for megapublishers to maximize profits by exploiting an established fanbase to pay for a game's development. If they want to make another one, that's fine I guess, but they're the ones who have to pony up the dough. Their reward comes after through game sales.My resolve might be tested if they started a Zone of the Enders 3 kickstarter.
>>315269428
Every single game I backed on kickstarter was made and ended up as good as I expected.
Kojima is nothing more than a concept man. He generates the concept and foundation to a game or story. That's it.
Other people should be the ones to create the characters, fill the story, and create the looks.
>>315272563
cool 4 u
>>315267348
Fuck no..well maybe I'm a mgs fag to the end so maybe. But konami has the money so probably not, if they actually did that and kojima wasn't involved no.
>>315271575
Del Toro, Kojima, and Junji-fucking-Ito were making a game together and Konami goes full retard. They are still making a game together, but It will have another name. Del Toro pushed the sequel to "Pacific Rim" back for REASONS.
>>315270198
>Some people here actually believe in this
! bet you are 12 and discovered 4chan last year
>>315272565
Thy should ditch Kojima altogether just like Disney did with Lucas.
>>315272682
I agree. Sometimes people run out of good fucking ideas and need to be replaced, or cycled out for awhile.
Lucas copied his ideas and technical shit from Jodorowsky when he wanted to make the Dune movie, and collected technical guys, actors, etc. then got denied by the studios. He had a giant book made that showed the action sequences, etc. that went to every studio, to which nearly all big directors used and copied for their own movies.
>>315272637
Del Toro gave up on making games. And after the Hobbit and At the Mountains of Madness debacles I would have expected him to have killed himself already.
>>315272240
Except for all of the lower people at Konami confirming that it fucking happened.
>>315267348I'm okay with more Revengeance. Anything that doesn't fuck up Big Boss or Solid Snake arc.
He should have stuck to the true to life combat and 80's action style war/conflict movies/real life. It is somewhat niche, but the gameplay and shit is perfect for that Vietnam airborne drop behind enemy lines, sneaking through the jungle, sneaking/shooting through fucking tunnels underground with traps and shit?
God that would be amazing.
>>315272860
You are again taking rumors from click bait blogs as actual sources.
>>315272421
The guy managed to squeeze out MGSV and the fantastic Fox Engine for 80 million dollars. That is fiscally insane. Most game engines alone cost over that figure, and he found a way to make an engine and a game for nearly nothing. Kojima may not be your cup of tea, but give credit where credit is due.
>>315267513
First part playing with Venom and beeing killed by Solid, and second part with Solid, defeating Big Boss.
It would be a nice remake of those shitty MSX titles that hipsters pretend they played.
>>315272332
You sincerely have no idea what you are talking about. Konami are on the cusp (unless the bill has already past) of having a complete monopoly on gambling in Japan with a partnership with Vegas that is going to make billions upon billions of dollars. Konami aren't in, nor were they ever, in financial dire straights.
>>315267348
not after what happened to MGO3
>>315272853
Del Toro has been talking about games very much in the last couple months, and hanging out with Kojima and Shinkawa. He IS making a game.
>>315273182
MGSV doesnt feel like a game that costed 80 million dollars. He clearly mismanaged the whole project and used a lot of money on stuff he didnt even used in the game. There was a musician that wrote 40 songs for MGSV and not one of the songs were used.
>>315267348

>>315267638
Revengeance isn't part of the Kojima canon, but with Kojima gone, expect future game devs to take non-canon titles like revengeance and portable ops as part of the new canon.
>>315267348
What happened to all the hurr so what if AAA makes money, mobile makes more money because smaller budgets so fuck Kojima and fuck Silent Hills?
It's Kotaku so this whole speculation is probably pure bullshit, but I expect Konami to pull a Silent Hill and contract some cheap, unknown Western developers to make MGS sequels. It didn't work with Silent Hill, it obviously wouldn't work with MGS, but it's Konami so this is exactly what is going to happen if they indeed plan to keep producing AAA MGS games.
>>315273393
You dont get rich, or richer, by wastinh money on enterprises that are doomed from the start. Gambling isnt a sure bet either, especially when its not even legal yet.

You cannot make a big game without an investor, and who is going to give any money to a couple of washed out failed movie directors?
>>315273752
>gambling isn't legal
in what shithole of a country you live in
>>315273603
That's exactly what he's saying dude. The game didn't cost 80 million to produce. Simply making the engine it runs on took a massive bite out of that. The fact he still made a game and a new engine with 80 million is damn impressive.
>>315273603
The eighty million figure includes the price tag of the Fox Engine. I would venture a guess that the Fox Engine cost more than The Phantom Pain, but that is only speculation.
>>315267575
Did you completely miss the point of MGS4? The whole game was about how redundant and useless normal soldiers like Solid are compared to enhanced ones through nanomachines or cyborg enhancents like Raiden's. Raiden would wipe the fucking floor with Solid post revengeance, Snake's like a hundred years old anyways.
>>315273892

Top Kuk.
Konami is run by fucking thugs. They don't care about Kojima, nor releasing a finished game.
>>315267447
She's dead fyi. Unless they pull a clone out of nowhere.
as long as it was some raiden shit yes. new clone or new super soldier program what ever hell play as a custom bad guy type character with odd abilites
but no fucking raiden bullshit unless he stops wearing high heals and puts on some fucking pants
>>315273949
He could have used a third party engine to reduce costs like most sensible devs do.
>>315273949
At least someone here can understand what a fucking financial feat it was to make the engine and game for eighty million. Kojima Productions were filled with fucking wizards.
>>315274402
Konami didn't want to pay for licensing anything. This entire thread has been about how they are assholes and don't want to pay for anything.
>>315267348
Fuck no. After the mess that is 5 I am done with the series.
MGS5 felt like it was 40% complete to begin with so really don't trust Konami or Kojima with anything at this point.
>>315274565
That was probably a Kojimbo decision though.
>>315274402
Well there's more too it then that. Until someone cranks out the perfect engine that can do anything and everything easilywhich isn't going to happenthen companies out there will have to create new engines now and then. Otherwise everything will just stagnate once every nook and cranny of the engine has been explored.
I'm actually quite hype about what can come out of the Fox engine. Let's hope Konami doesn't hold it hostage for too long.
>>315274746
There is nothing in the Fox Engine that couldnt have been done with any of the available enines out there,
>>315267513It will be a reboot

You can do anything with any engine out there technically, it boils down to how well it processes information for desired results and how easy it is to actually implement those processes when building the game.
Look at the Cry engine and Star Citizen. The Cry engine just kind of sucks when it comes to tons of shit moving around and changing directions constantly and shooting at each other. It's really resource intensive to calculate all that shit and actually getting it working is a nightmare in getting your coding working properly. Cry just ain't good for space ship games. Cry engine has its benefits and looks fantastic when utilized properly but it's really more suited for first person shooters then it is space ships.
Engines are complex. Depending on the engine, is super easy to do some things and implement mechanics, a hell of a lot harder to do others. The only reason they are a thing is because it's easier to license use of one then it is to build every game ever from the ground up.
I'm still not too sure why Cry was the engine of choice for Star Citizen.
If we get another MGS it'll just be the same game but replace everything with the cut content + padding and rename Mother Base to Outer Heaven and you retards will buy it again
