Is the Bandana in MGSV canon?

did The Boss, Big Boss, Solid Snake and Raiden all wear the same bandana canonically?
>>
Didn't Big Boss throw the bandanna to the wind and ocean at the end of Peace Walker?

Solid Snake's and Raiden's can't be the original.
>>
>>320971003
did you even play V?

they restored it. but the question is if thats canon. its a completely optional item that also looks super shitty on Venom.
>>
I like to assume any weapon/item you can develop in PW and 5 that are not needed to complete the game, nor featured in a cutscene, is not canon. So as far as I'm concerned,stuff like Stealth Camo was still invented by Otacon and so on.
>>
BB threw it away at the end of PW

SS has his own

Raiden doesn't have one
>>
>>320971003
They're not. But mgs5s has a description saying its it was the one from pw.
>>
>>320971157
I like it.
>>
>>320971206
>BB threw it away at the end of PW
so you think the bandana in V is not canon?

>Raiden doesn't have one

wew lad. pic related.
>>
>>320971518
Raidens is more like a bandage over his eye than a bandanna. It's also covered in tiny cameras that allow him to see, so it's probably not The Boss'.
>>
>>320971518
What the fuck makes you think that could remotely be the Boss'?
>>
>>320971518
not a bandana
>>
>>320971643
>Raidens is more like a bandage over his eye than a bandanna

its a bandana worn over one eye.

>It's also covered in tiny cameras that allow him to see

wat.

>>320971664
>What the fuck makes you think that could remotely be the Boss'?

maybe the fact that all "Snakes" wore THE bandana at one point?

also SS could have given it to raiden at the end of 4.

>The eyepatch in question acted as a means of improving his vision, using an artificial compound eye unit matrix that was capable of generating 200 million solid-state image sensors with a lens each, amounting to 200 megapixels, enough for even a person with a completely destroyed optical nerve to be able to see in human terms.

Except nowhere is it even hinted that Solid is wearing the same one.
Plus Raiden isn't one of the Snakes anyway.
Stop it with the headcanon
>>
>>320972043
You are a god damn retard
>>
>>320972282
Raiden had the code name Snake at the beginning of MGS2 and in his VR Missions though. So yes, he IS a Snake.

>Except nowhere is it even hinted that Solid is wearing the same one.

thats what this thread is about you dingus.

>>320972081

Hands down, you're right then. i simply didn't know about that.
>>
people in this thread need to realize that Strangelove found the bandana and restored it, and it just so happens to be restored to the color of Snakes bandanna.

so it can now be assumed that Big Boss gives Snake the bandanna.
>>
>>320972680
how does BB get it back off Venom?

It could go either way, but I see no reason why it wouldn't be the same one.

I hope so

No it isn't canon. Kojima tweeted that he only added it for customization/aesthetics purpose.
>>
>>320973149
but he starts with a bandana, they're standard foxhound issue
>>
>>320971518
>bandana

More like an eyepatch

It is

The bandanna Snake wears was Medic's
>>
>>320973797
no he doesn't.

>>320974219
Aww shit you got me. I remembered MG1 incorrectly. I was thinking of the radio in MG2
>>
>>320974373
It's an unlock you get from a side op. If anything it's more of strangelove's creation.
>>
>>320974859
Canonically, it's found in the mammal pod. What's iffy is Venom choosing to wear it/Snake taking it after killing him.
>>
>>320975129
its not much a stretch, both The Boss and Venom/Big Boss betray their protege's and then the protoge put their bandanna's on.
>>
>>320975548
It's more like The Boss and Venom were both killed due to loyalty to their commanders (The Government and Big Boss)
>>
>>320975548
Yeah, but you'd think Solid would have ignored or destroyed the bandanna since he hated Big Boss after realizing he betrayed the US, even stopped using CQC. Of course, Big Boss did the same thing with The Boss, like you said. The Snakes must have attachment issues.

I need a MGS1 remake where all the environments are redesigned to fit MG2's more abstract exploration and most of the action is outside in the snow a la MGS4. And

Solid Snake wouldn't have taken jack shit. He had to get out of there ASAP since Outer Heaven was going to explode.
>>
>>320980668
Nothing, but I'd say a good nail on the coffin before parting away with the series would be a competent reimagining of MGS1 with all the stuff I liked about MG2 (which was the main inspiration).
>>
>>320981094
>competent reimagining
The issue is what this even means. What it means for you and what it means for someone else might vary. I mean, yeah, I can't stop you from dreaming of a cool new version of Metal Gear Solid, but you probably wouldn't get what you're wishing for.

I'd rather have a new game that did new things. That said, I vastly prefer MG2 to MGS1.
>>
>>320973363

This, that's not even fucking Big Boss.
>>
>>320981863
of course he is. Venom is BB just as John is.
>>
>>320981297
Me too, that's why I want a MGS1 that builds upon the potential that the PS1 couldn't plain give as much as MG2 could.

I'm only saying this because I know we will never get a new game (this remake would basically be a new game but you're saving on various things by spicing up the already defined assets). And because I have a thing for snow/90's settings.
>>
>>320982094
MGS1's problems don't have to do with the PS1 so much as just a sense of it being rushed. I love MGS1's core gameplay more than MG2's, but the issue is that there really isn't level design to make use of it. MG2 is pretty unbalanced in terms of how powerful the player is (MG2 throws out ammo and health like nuts), but the actual sneaking and navigating are much more demanding. The second disc is just boss fights. You can't fault that on the PS1, really. MGS just wasn't as well-designed as it could be and fails to live up to its potential.

It's still a good game, though, and I don't think it needs to be remade.
>>
>>320971157
>looks super shitty on Venom.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought so.
>>
>>320978779
Kojima should become a body builder
>>
>>320970756
Yes, Strangelove had one.
Play the game.
>>
>>320984750
No, they didn't. Pay attention.
