Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game)	comment	Metal Gear Solid Vnote V is used not as a Roman numeral 5, but as a letter. is a duology of stealth based games serving as the eighth mainline entry in the Metal Gear series by Kojima Productions for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_143939c1	comment	Trailers Always Spoil: The GDC 2013 trailer made it clear that Ground Zeroes closes with the destruction of MSF's Mother Base, as well as Snake suffering massive injuries and falling into a coma for nine years. The E3 2013 trailer confirmed the return of Paz and Huey, as well as Miller losing An Arm and a Leg.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: This is easily the darkest Metal Gear story yet. The tale of Big Boss' Faceâ€“Heel Turn covers some pretty heavy subjects, like race, revenge, child soldiers, Cold-Blooded Torture, body horror and rape. That being said, there's still plenty of room for the series' trademark humor. Like wearing a chicken hat during a sneaking mission, for instance.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_15264ac9	type	Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_15264ac9	comment	Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: If you try to crawl over a claymore mine to pick it up, it explodes instead. You can knock out prone enemies by stomping them, or wake them up by doing the same. Do this repeatedly to the same guy and he'll wind up dead. That's right, you just curb-stomped some guy to death. Critically injured enemies are left lying on the ground writhing in agony. Don't extract them, and they'll die within a few minutes, even if you knock them out. Fulton extract is ridiculous and hilarious, and against all odds it usually works. When it doesn't, the target dies as they presumably plummet hundreds of feet to their deaths. If this happens, you're held accountable. You CAN fail missions because of this, so beware of extracting during inclement weather.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_1b122c5d	comment	Scare Chord: Notably, this is the first main series game where it doesn't play every time you get spotted. If an enemy gets suspicious and eventually sniffs you out, a white "!" will appear without any sort of notable sound byte. However, if the enemy happens upon you without prior warning, the series' Signature Sound Effect will play alongside a red "!". As usual, this can make a player jump out of their seat if they didn't check their corners and stepped straight into some random's guard's line of sight.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_1c0d4155	type	Necessary Drawback
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_1c0d4155	comment	Necessary Drawback: The vehicle types Snake can ride have advantages and disadvantages to each. The jeep is the fastest vehicle, but provides no cover or weaponry, is extremely fragile, and simply passing by an enemy will get you seen. The truck provides cover while making it harder to get seen and has better durability than the jeep, but is only moderately fast, and poor driving and driving too close to guards will cause them to spot you. The Zhuk and Stout Infantry Fighting Vehicles are faster than the truck and impervious to small arms, but are vulnerable to rocket launchers and have a wide turning radius. The rocket launcher Zhuk has additional firepower in its rocket rack, but that also limits the autocannon turret to 180 degrees coverage. The fire support Stout trades the 20mm autocannon for a 105mm tank gun, losing the dakka in favor of a BFG with the resulting decrease in rate of fire. The tank completely covers you, which makes it near-impossible to get seen unless you do something incredibly stupid, is extremely hard to destroy, has the smallest turning radius and gives you a 105mm gun with a hundred rounds to kill vehicles and a heavy machine gun with a five hundred rounds to kill people, but is the slowest vehicle. The missile truck has enough firepower to even bring down tanks very quickly, but the missiles only face forward so a good portion of time will be spent trying to position yourself just right to hit your target, and aiming while avoiding enemy fire is nearly impossible. Buddies: each gives you some useful ability at the cost of not being able to use other buddies in the mission (though you can swap them out, but it takes time and money).

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_1f92e4c6	comment	Regenerating Health: One of the biggest departures for the series; Snake now has regenerating health (and faster than the very gradual regeneration he had in Metal Gear Solid 3). No visible life bar, but getting shot will make bullet holes and burns appear at the edges of the screen, and they linger for a while, impeding your vision. Take too many hits, and the screen fades to a bloody-red hue.

The Phantom Pain opens with an entire hospital ward being mercilessly slaughtered in graphic and disturbing ways. One scene has Snake and two others reaching through Paz's open intestines as she writhes and screams in pain to extract a flashing object adorned with a peace symbol.

When choosing to play as a DD soldier in a mission instead of Snake, the player can outfit him or her with a balaclava if they choose to.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_259d5879	type	Anachronism Stew
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_259d5879	comment	Anachronism Stew: As per series standard. Period weapons and basic military hardware of the 1980s mixed with futuristic technology; cybernetics, advanced robotics and Snake's holographic iDroid map/scanner. A particularly noticeable one is when Skull Face gives Chico a Walkman-like player and Chico himself is wearing earphones. The former was not released until 1979 and the latter wouldn't be around for another five years or so.note This is a continuation of an anachronism from Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, where Vladimir Aleksandrovich Zadornov already had a prototype Walkman and gave it to Snake, not to mention you could develop the modern version of the Walkman, no less. In terms of music, Venom Snake can not only find tapes with licensed songs, he can find singles that weren't even out in 1984, such as "Take on Me". The entire Ground Zeroes companion app is full of this, allowing you to unlock characters who are either dead or not even born yet. For example, performing a certain task in the game allows the player develop a Gekko in the app, somehow. Then again, the app is clearly labelled a "Mother Base VR simulator".

The Afghanistan mission also has untranslated Arabic signposts and graffiti.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_391d6577	comment	Sequel Escalation: Metal Gear Solid 4 tried to build battlefields that were constantly changing with two factions at war, and later focused on sneaking around enemies that had access to vastly superior technology. Metal Gear Solid V is trying to re-implement the shifting battlefield and apply it to an open world. It also expands the army managing aspect of Peace Walker, with Snake now able to sent out spies to infiltrate enemy bases and get information from them. There's even an example between the prologue and the main game - Kojima has touted the environments of The Phantom Pain as being hundreds of times bigger than Ground Zeroes and Peace Walker combined. Holding guys up with your gun and pinning them with CQC have been improved—when you hold a guy up you can order him to the ground, or even make him call out to his buddies to lure them into a trap. Interrogations are now mini-menu-driven instead of just holding down one button.

After seeing Snake in the prison camp, Chico starts to panic and begins drawing attention to them. It doesn't take long for Snake to apply a sleeper hold on him while saying "Don't fight it." He also faces off against beings that replicate humans, much like his father did (he provides the vocals for Raiden in "Jamais Vu" mission). He also previously played a Marine responsible for torture at Guantanamo Bay.

Whatever happens, Zero and Cipher (a.k.a. the Patriots) will continue on to further their ends, which would culminate decades later in Metal Gear Solid 4. Indeed, Ground Zeroes implies that they're already infiltrating governments and agencies around the world. However, The Phantom Pain reveals that Zero himself wasn't directly involved with the events of later Metal Gear works. Meaning that all his attempts to reconcile with Big Boss were for nought.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_3cb1d38d	comment	You can easily play Snake as a Bad Boss who makes the lives of his soldiers on Mother Base a living hell, either by using them as a CQC dummy, target practice or putting a knife to their throat and grilling them for info. About the only thing you can't do is murder them, since you can't use lethal weapons on Mother Base and if you get them killed it's a Non-Standard Game Over for you. This could even be argued to be subverted; as long as you don't kill any of them by throwing them off ledges or into the ocean, not only are you not penalized for beating the everloving shit out of your Mother Base staff, they thank you for it. They'll even encourage you to do it! Apparently the entirety of Diamond Dogs are masochists... This can even be practical. Interrogating your Mother Base staff can give advice on new enemy equipment or tactics or point out one of a number of (renewable!) rough diamonds hidden throughout Mother Base.

Skull Face has established himself as the king of this, outlasting the kind of torture that Ocelot or Volgin would give. He notably beltwhips Paz, forces her and Chico to have sex, rapes her, and the kicker: forcing a bomb into her abdomen that is set to go off when Snake rescues her in a timely manner. Oh, and this isn't even going into the second bomb Skull Face shoved up her vagina. That very bomb ends up killing Paz and sending Snake into his coma, right after he is forced to take out the first one without any anesthetic. Miller when meeting Huey nearly breaks the man's leg by taking control of his robotic limbs and programming his left leg to bend all the way upwards.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_4389e368	type	Actionized Sequel
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_4389e368	comment	Actionized Sequel: Zigzagged. The game introduces stealth takedowns, bullet time, and stealing weapons with CQC. But, Snake has significantly less health than in previous games, which still discourages fighting enemies head-on. In the new ranking system, getting spotted will cost you points, but going beyond basic objectives and pushing onwards (rather than reloading) will net you a higher rank. It's more forgiving than Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker's system, so you can still S rank a mission if you're discovered, provided you're quick, non-lethal, rescue prisoners, and so forth. In Phantom Pain, the requirements are even more forgiving that in Ground Zeroes to the point that a guns blazing run can net an S-rank. The slow-mo on discovery feature Reflex Mode, which means being Discovered won't always cause an Enemy Combat Alert.note Only the latter counts against your score. Enabling it means alerts can be avoided. However, disabling Reflex Mode can also net you a "No Reflex" score bonus. In a large departure from every other game in the franchise, getting discovered no longer means endlessly respawning waves of enemies. You can get discovered, kill everything in the vicinity, and just go back to normal like nothing happened. note Kill enough enemies in open combat, and the enemy Mission Control, when pressed for more soldiers over the radio, will flatly say that they can't send any more men. This however only applies to The Phantom Pain—where each set-piece stage only commandeers a specific amount of soldiers. The Ground Zeroes prologue will still bombard you with respawning enemies—to the point that killing all guards in an entire section will only restore them. More so if you were discovered, in which case they probably will have increased..

Seeing as the old man is more or less immortal, this turns out to be the only effective method of control. Played with in one specific cassette tape dialogue, where Skull Face is wielding a bell. Skull Face claims that a soldier is waiting at the door outside and will relay orders to harm one of Code Talker's fellow Navajos on every ring of the bell, and then proceeds to ring the bell increasingly recklessly. At the end the bell is thrown, ringing as it bounces around, much to Code Talker's despair. As Skull Face leaves, as it turns out, there was never a soldier waiting outside!

He asks her where Cipher is, and she is just about to answer before the sequence ends. This later is brought up in The Phantom Pain. We get to hear the entire conversation, but only at the very end of the game. After the credits for the True Ending of The Phantom Pain, we hear Ocelot (who else?) and Miller discuss the game's big twist, and how the latter reacts to it.

Venom realizes he used to be the "avatar" created by the player at the start of the game, the player sees that Venom has an MSX2 console, and Venom has a vision through a mirror of himself a decade later in Outer Heaven receiving a tape detailing Operation Intrude N313 while still on Diamond Dog's Mother Base in 1984note As the Diamond Dogs logo and stylings can be seen behind Venom before he flips over the tape and the scene becomes a full demon Snake in Outer Heaven, he's still wearing the exact same gear the player last equipped him with, and the scene occurs between two timelines that end and start in 1984 respectively.; the player is Big Boss's phantom, and he will continue his legacy by playing the other games in the series.

The Camp Omega prisoners (including Chico) have bolts screwed into their Achilles tendons, which makes walking or merely standing up extremely painful. The XOF commander, Skull Face, who pretty much looks as if he's rotting. The audiotape of Paz's interrogation culminates in her being sedated, having most of her organs removed and a bomb inserted in her intestines, along with another one "where no one will look" (complete with wet sounds). In the second-last scene, Snake, Chico and the chopper's onboard doctor extract the device from Paz while she's fully conscious and screaming in pain. Snake wakes up from him coma in The Phantom Pain to find he's missing his left arm, and gets a piece of shrapnel embedded into his skull. Ocelot fits Snake with a fully functional prosthetic, but that huge thing sticking out of Snake's head is visible at all times, which can be pretty chilling sometimes.

It's more forgiving than Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker's system, so you can still S rank a mission if you're discovered, provided you're quick, non-lethal, rescue prisoners, and so forth. In Phantom Pain, the requirements are even more forgiving that in Ground Zeroes to the point that a guns blazing run can net an S-rank.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30	type	Meaningful Name
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30	comment	Meaningful Name: A "phantom pain" is a sensation of pain in a limb or body part that is no longer there. Both Snake and Miller end up losing limbs over the course the game. Similarly, the antagonist, Skull Face, is missing most of his face. It also refers to emotional pain brought from losing loved ones, and how their deaths haunt people. "DÃ©jÃ Vu" means something looks familiar even though you've never seen it before, and it's the title of the extra mission where the player must re-enact scenes from the original Metal Gear Solid in the Cuban Naval Base. There's no way Big Boss and Miller were involved during the Shadow Moses Incident, so there's no way the stuff should look familiar to them, but it's familiar to us, the players.note The real Miller had been killed at least three days before the events of the Shadow Moses Incident. "Jamais Vu," on the other hand, means something familiar seeming unfamiliar to you as if something was wrong with it. The mission is about detecting and eliminating body snatchers, who are close-but-not-perfect imitations of the real people they've snatched. "They look the same, but they're not!" is a common cry from people in body snatcher movies. The name could also refer to the fact that the mission takes place in an alternate universe with the game placing great emphasis on the mission's non-canonity by placing quotes about alternative universes in the loading screens.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_963086ce	comment	Damn You, Muscle Memory!: A number of button functions that were series mainstays were switched around due to the inclusion of a non-game pausing peripheral and Snake's Limited Loadout. It may take a bit to get used to pressing L1/L2/LT for Codec, Select/Back to pause, using the d-pad to change weapons/items, etc. The button configuration also differs a bit in the PS3 version compared to the other platforms. Whereas the PS4 and Xbox versions use the lower shoulder buttons (L1/LB and R1/RB) for the codec and binoculars and the upper shoulder buttons (L2/LT and R2/RT) for aiming and shooting, the PS3 version has them swapped out. This can take some getting used to for players transitioning from the PS3 to the PS4. Then happens again using armored vehicles, since the trigger buttons become your driving controls while L1 becomes your weapon button. Good luck trying to aim, steer, and fire without in some way accidentally driving into a wall.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_abad35b4	type	Soundtrack Dissonance
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_abad35b4	comment	Soundtrack Dissonance: Sins of the Father is one of the game's primary themes; it serves as a Villain Song that highlights Big Boss's fall from grace, and parts of it are prominent Recurring Riffs. The only place it officially plays in the game are during the awkward jeep ride listed under Narm; not only do the lyrics have almost nothing to do with the scene in question (save for a particular line or two), the song is needlessly dramatic for what can best be described as a guided tour of some lovely roads and cliffs while the villian awkwardly monologues at you, and while it's debatable how villainous Big Boss/Venom Snake are by the end of the game, they most likely didn't fall far enough for the dark lyrics to be at all fitting.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_ad754f85	comment	Evolving Title Screen: The standard title screen in both games depicts Snake seated inside his support chopper. In Ground Zeroes, completing the main story mission will cause Snake to appear bloody, while completing the "Intel Operative Rescue" mission makes Hideo appear inside the chopper alongside Snake; finishing any other mission will simply change the time of day to reflect that of the mission you've just played. The Phantom Pain initially shows Snake's hospital bed in Dhekelia as the title screen before switching to the regular one after the prologue, wherein Snake's appearance and the time of day likewise changes in accordance with your latest progress.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_b2280b66	comment	Retcon: There are several major changes to the established continuity with this game, given that it's a prequel that greatly expands upon events alluded to in previous games. Initially, the biggest retcon seems to be that Big Boss and Master Miller were both horribly disfigured after the events of GZ, despite the existence of promotional/concept art from MGS1 depicting them as able bodied with their limbs intact and no shrapnel on Big Boss's head. The only prior reference to Big Boss ever losing an arm and having it replaced with a bionic was in an optional radio call in Metal Gear 2, but that was after the events of the original Metal Gear. The bigger retcon comes at the fact that Venom Snake, the player character in TPP, is not only a body double for the real Big Boss (who has no shrapnel and an intact left arm), but the one that Solid Snake actually fought in Outer Heaven way back during the very first game in the series.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_b8dbbc07	comment	Ink-Suit Actor: With Metal Gear Solid V being the first entry in the series to utilize extensive facial capturing, many of the game's cast, including KP staff members, lent their likenesses to the characters in the game, some of which can be seen in this behind the scenes video. Most notably the new heroine Quiet looks exactly like Stefanie Joosten, the Holland-born actress who portrays her. Hideo himself is the titular character in the "Intel Operative Rescue" side-op in Ground Zeroes. Players who skipped out on Ground Zeroes can still recruit him in The Phantom Pain by unlocking the "Intel Agent Extraction" side-op. Level designer Ziang Tan is the frequent kidnapping victim in the "Unlucky Dog" series of side-ops. Male models Dean Newcombe and Dante Carver, alongside Kojima Productions composer Ludvig Forssell and animator Brian Robison, all appear throughout the game as generic soldiers, although some of them also have important roles in certain cutscenes and missions. One of the doctors operating on Snake and Miller after the events of Ground Zeroes in the flashback prior to epilogue is modeled after programmer Mike Fudge. The Cyprian doctor in the prologue is played by British actor Ian Moore, whose resemblance to Italian head transplant advocate Sergio Canavero led to speculation over the nature of Snake's true identity (which were correct for reasons not involving brain transplants), as well as some minor controversy over the possibly unauthorized use of Canavero's likeness.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_bebf0356	comment	In a large departure from every other game in the franchise, getting discovered no longer means endlessly respawning waves of enemies. You can get discovered, kill everything in the vicinity, and just go back to normal like nothing happened. note Kill enough enemies in open combat, and the enemy Mission Control, when pressed for more soldiers over the radio, will flatly say that they can't send any more men. This however only applies to The Phantom Pain—where each set-piece stage only commandeers a specific amount of soldiers. The Ground Zeroes prologue will still bombard you with respawning enemies—to the point that killing all guards in an entire section will only restore them. More so if you were discovered, in which case they probably will have increased..

Hideo Kojima has stated that this subdued performance is partly deliberate, given that Snake has become jaded as a result of the experiences he's lived through. However, in a simultaneous inversion of this, his motion capture performance and the lines from The Phantom Pain show considerably more emotion.

With later upgrades, it is far more versatile than its previous iteration, as it can be used on everything from soldiers to vehicles to sheep. Additionally, you can carry far more at once than you could ever hold in Peace Walker, and unlike in Peace Walker, a supply drop will also restock you on Fulton Recovery Devices. On the other hand, it costs GMP to Fulton objects, which is now an expendable resource, and when Diamond Dogs is just starting out, Fultoning a lot of soldiers will very easily put you in the red. Also, Fulton balloons will not work indoors(until you get the Wormhole very late in the game), and it now has a success rate, which decreases in bad weather such as a sandstorm or rain, but can be increased by taking a shower or leveling up the Support Team. In addition, enemies will spot your balloon if they're too close, and if they're right near the soldier being extracted, they can actually shoot at and pop your Fulton Device.

Whether you simply kill Chico in Ground Zeroes or go as far as modding lethal weapons at Mother Base to shoot Ocelot in The Phantom Pain, you still get the unique game over rather than the typical one. Of course, this comes into spoiler territory as dying in Ground Zeroes nets you a time paradox screen, whereas dying in The Phantom Pain gets you a standard game over. In other words, the devs thought so far ahead they're massively foreshadowing Venom's identity as a doppelgÃ¤nger (and as being less plot vital than the real Big Boss) through their damn game over screen.

Combined with the use of reactive Shaky Cam, the cinematography evokes of Alfonso CuarÃ³n's style in Children of Men so strongly that it might as well as be a Shout-Out.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_f4fb7564	comment	Diegetic Interface: Snake's iDroid is his in-universe map and menu screen. You can even bring it into your universe if you connect a smart device to the game console. The downside is that it doesn't pause the game, so make sure you only check your map in a safe spot!

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_f511ea9b	type	Product Placement
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_f511ea9b	comment	Product Placement J.F. Rey eyewears are featured prominently in both, GZ and TPP. Snake gives Hideo a JF1142 at the end of the Intel Operative Rescue mission, which are same ones Huey wears in TPP. Hideo, Kaz and Ocelot all have J.F. Rey eyewear specially designed and named after them during TPP. Snake wears a Seiko wristwatch on his prosthetic during TPP, which can be seen prominently when the player uses the Phantom Cigar to speed up time. Sony products are featured prominently throughout both, GZ and TPP. Snake uses a Walkman (a TPS-L2 to be exact) to listen to audio tapes like he did in PW and the tapes themselves are BHF-46s. The final scene of TPP has Venom Snake playing a tape labelled "Operation Intrude N313" on a Bitcorder magnetic data recorder connected to a HiTBiT computer, which was the Sony brand model of the MSX2 (the platform the series started on). The leather jacket that the real Snake wears at the end of the final mission was specifically designed for the game by Puma, who released a line of MGSV apparel. Additionally, Snake's bike in the same scene is a customized Triumph Bonneville similar to the ones EVA rode in MGS3 and MGS4.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4	type	Video Game Cruelty Potential
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4	comment	Video Game Cruelty Potential: On the other side of the spectrum, you can now strap C4 onto unsuspecting enemy soldiers and blow them up at your leisure, a step-up from just air-lifting them out. The Phantom Pain greatly expands the methods you can employ to make guards' lives a living hell. You can easily play Snake as a Bad Boss who makes the lives of his soldiers on Mother Base a living hell, either by using them as a CQC dummy, target practice or putting a knife to their throat and grilling them for info. About the only thing you can't do is murder them, since you can't use lethal weapons on Mother Base and if you get them killed it's a Non-Standard Game Over for you. This could even be argued to be subverted; as long as you don't kill any of them by throwing them off ledges or into the ocean, not only are you not penalized for beating the everloving shit out of your Mother Base staff, they thank you for it. They'll even encourage you to do it! Apparently the entirety of Diamond Dogs are masochists... This can even be practical. Interrogating your Mother Base staff can give advice on new enemy equipment or tactics or point out one of a number of (renewable!) rough diamonds hidden throughout Mother Base.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_fb1327b2	type	Tranquillizer Dart
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_fb1327b2	comment	Tranquillizer Dart: Two of them are now available in pistol form: The Wu Silent pistol, which is the silenced tranquiliser pistol that's been a staple of the series since Metal Gear Solid 2 and the Uragan-5, which fills the role the Rubber Slug Shotgun did in Peace Walker, except as a 5-shot revolver. The tranquilised sniper rifle makes a return in this game, though it does need a specialist staff member to develop. Quiet can optionally use it in lieu of her lethal sniper rifle. Rubber bullet-using assault rifles and submachine guns can be developed fairly early in the game. However, they're less accurate and damaging than their lethal counterparts.

Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_fc451ba4	type	Follow the Leader
Metal Gear Solid V (Video Game) / int_fc451ba4	comment	Follow the Leader: Both games have retooled some mechanics that have been in previous games in the series - such as Regenerating Healthnote Which has been played with since Metal Gear Solid 2 and "tagging" enemies to keep track of themnote A simplified enemy marking system was introduced in Peace Walker but was counter-intuitive and not very useful - to resemble modern stealth games. For the first time in a Metal Gear game, pre-order content is available in the form of guns, clothing and unit patches. Whether post-release DLC will take this form as well is yet to be confirmed.
