Is the wormhole tech ever explained?

Really makes you think huh?
>>
>>345100872
In chapter 3

>>345100872
shitty writing

>>345100974
no

>>345100872
It's a gameplay element. Not a story one. It doesn't need explanation.

>>345100872
The Bird you capture in the side op that unlocks it was actually and Egyptian god.

Vokkal card parasites

The same as SUNLIGHT

I thought these were multiplayer only?

>>345101760
Nope. Can Fulton anything under any conditions.

Nanomachines

>>345100872
MGSV ruined every fucking lore about the MGS technology.

MGSV is pure shit.
>>
>>345104164
Boohoo. Snake eater had ape escape monkeys. Your point?
>>
>>345104164
You can't shit on vocal chord parasites and wormhole technology, but give nanomachines a free pass.

Fulton
Upgraded

Non canon.
It only exists because you captured animals that are ZOE references.
>>
>>345100872
Those fultons got all the dominant genes
>>
galactic parasites
>>
>>345104591
So venom never saved animals and the whole animal sanctuary is non canon as well?

Is anything ever explained in MGSV?
>>
>>345104801
Possibly.

More likely is that the Anubis birds and such don't exist.

So whenever there's a 4th wall break of some sort, it's more like a wink wink joke to the player and not actually canon inside its own universe?

>lore about the MGS technology

but the "lore" about technology in other MGS games was MUH NANOMACHINES
>>
Does it need to be explained? I thought the universal rule for mgs tech is dont think about it too hard
>>
>>345105165
What this line still in the game if you said you never played MGS1 at the start?
>>

PW had the Soliton Radar years before it was invented by Mei-Ling and other improbable shit by 1974 standards. V just continued the trend PW started.
>>
>>345105391
Not the guy you were talking to, anon.
>>
>>345104591
This. It's basically just a joke. A very, very powerful joke. Kind of like the that sun gun in MGS4.
>>
>>345100872

I believe so but I'm not sure.

Yes. It doesn't matter what you choose at the start (especially considering the US version didn't ask you whether you played the first game or not).

Anyone got the skull face is venom theory handy?

I like to see PW's ridiculously advanced technology as cannon. Big Boss's army was attracting the best of the best from around the world. Who's to say that powerful collaborations of brilliant minds couldn't piece together improbably technology? In some puesdo-historical way it works out too because MSF is destroyed and, with it, most of their staff and technology. If iDroid and the various Metal Gears, although some of PW's bosses were extremely ridiculous, can be considered cannon then I don't see what's so far fetched about inventing a Soliton Radar years ahead of time.

All that said though, shit like the infinite ammo bandanna and wormhole technology are obvious jokes. Inventing advanced models of the Sony Walkman decades ahead of time kind of straddles the line between cannon and joke for me though.
>>
>>345104164
What about the infinite bandana in MGS1, or the wigs in MGS2, the patriot gun in MGS3 and the hurricane rifle in MGS4?

Regardless of what you call it, it's obvious product placement.
>>
>>345105341
Hating MGSV is the current trend.

I feel like at first they tried to make a scientific explanation for everything then halfway through said "fuck it"
>>
>>345100872
nanomachines
they just work, okay?!
>>
>>345107378
Is this your first metal gear?
They do this in every single one of them.

>>345100872
Yup, it's explained at same spot where they explain the Patriot never runs out of ammo and why there's a flintlock that fires tornadoes in 4.

>can create a fucking wormhole
>can't create a suppressor that doesn't break after a few dozen shots
God dammit huey

>>345100872
lol man its just a easter egg

>>345107856
IMO the games always exaggerated things that were real, or things that seem far out but might be a starting thought.

For example. The pain controls bees. We know bees communicate through pheromones and "dancing". So you could assume he is using pheromones at the least to control them, but he also throws in some dancing. Maybe it's just flair, maybe there is a need for it.

Most of this stuff is inspired by real life shit but just done in a fantastical way because it helps show how far ahead the la li lu le lo are.
>>
>>345108683
They are called unlockables. They are not related to the lore.
You can't compare the wormhole to The Pain. It's closer to something like the infinite bandana.
