During this time, it was upgraded to include the ability to scan and transfer documents back to Mother Base, which range from physical files to even discarded radio transmitters, as well as hook up to data terminals on the ACC to download mission outlines. In 1984, Venom Snake used the iDroid version 3.02 while leading Diamond Dogs on their vendetta against Cipher and XOF.

Phantom Pain Incident See also: Hospital Escape and Phantom Pain Incident It also contained basic details about the mission, and updated itself on mission objectives. The iDroid's projection area referred to it as a beta version (v1.02), implying that the device had been created only very recently. Whether this will spill over into the PvP Metal Gear Online coming out next month remains to be seen.Usage Ground Zeroes Incident Main article: Ground Zeroes IncidentĪn iDroid was utilized by Big Boss during his missions at the United States Naval Prison Facility in Cuba in 1974/75, including his mission to rescue Paz Ortega Andrade and Chico from the facility, in order to gather intelligence on Cipher. Nickel-and-diming gamers with 'Coins' or 'Gems'? No thank you. (Or more if you count Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes as a prequel that ought to have been included in the price of the main game.)ĭLC? Sure. I just can't get behind micro-transactions in a video game that already costs at least $59.99. Yes, there are other ways to earn MB Coins and yes they are not necessary to complete or enjoy the game, but they are present. While the micro-transactions in The Phantom Pain are geared toward its online components, the 'Mother Base' or MB Coins you can purchase to expand your Forward Operating Bases still can be purchased with real-world money. And it didn't result in some spectacular performance. Ditching Hayter for the final chapter in the Big Boss storyline was even weirder and more troubling than cutting Kojima's name from the box-art. It was over-the-top in the same way the games are over-the-top. Hayter has been Snake for years, and his gravelly take on the character-like an extreme Clint Eastwood-was terrific.

Sutherland the younger has lent his voice to all sorts of things, from commercials to his star role in 24. It's impossible for me to separate his voice from his face-something I don't have a problem with when it comes to professional voice actors like Nolan North, Troy Baker, or David Hayter. It's not that Kiefer Sutherland is bad at being Big Boss, it's just that he sounds like Kiefer Sutherland-one of the most recognizable voices in Hollywood. David Hayter is still a better Snake than Kiefer Sutherland.

It does, however, make for fun YouTube videos.Ĥ. Still, I'm not sure it adds much to the experience. Could it be that I, myself, am simply overusing it? Quite possibly. But in an open world it loses some of its humor and starts to feel really gimmicky. It would be really cool if you could only use it in certain situations-to grab high value targets, maybe. Perhaps that's just my memory playing tricks on me. This isn't the first Metal Gear game to use the 'Fulton surface-to-air-recovery system'-a balloon device that yanks people and items from the ground and shoots them back to Mother Base via air transport-but it feels more overused here than ever before. The 'Fulton surface-to-air recovery system' is overused and gimmicky. Read More: Hideo Kojima and the Dangers of Hero Worshipģ. Pride cometh before the fall and all that. I was annoyed when Konami took Kojima's name off the box-art, but now I wish they'd come in and taken it out of the game, too. It's enormously annoying after a while and there's a vanity to it that really rubs me the wrong way. HEY DID YOU KNOW THIS IS A GAME BY HIDEO KOJIMA? Credits in-between each mission are silly.Ĭredits roll after each mission in The Phantom Pain. We are reminded over and over and over again that Hideo Kojima is the genius behind the game's creation. Let's call this a mixed bag, and one that deserves its own post further down the road.Ģ. I don't like scavenging for crafting materials, and I miss the linearity of previous titles. I really enjoy capturing bases in the Far Cry games and I enjoy it here, too, but it feels sort of weird to be in such a traditional open-world environment. You need something to distinguish Far Cry 5 from its predecessors.) There's a whole base management/recruitment system in play that's not in Far Cry (though it might as well be, Ubisoft.

You have Mother Base and you develop new weapons and gear.
