Metal Gear Solid 5 Multiplayer Character Customization Explained

@ejpaine: Those were magical times. Especially when you never won any tournament or survival games because everyone was hacking.

@snakew988: September 1st. The day I'll be playing it.

@Raged4Life: I can tell you didn't play the last Metal Gear Online.

The reason you can't design your camo is because it actually matters online. Its a game where people use stealth just as much as they run and gun, so the ability to hide yourself is actually a balance issue.

@Raged4Life: Or maybe because they don't want people making a pattern of dicks and boobs.

@Fartman7998: It uses a very well optimized PC engine called the Fox Engine, as with Source as long as you have a flexible engine you can downscale most games to run on last gen consoles. Witcher 3 was done with next gen in mind and even then they downscaled stuff on the PC version because of console limitations. I am actually very happy that MGSV GZ did run so perfect even on lower end PCs, that alone tells me that the PC version wont suck.

@rumadbrah: CoD AW !!! lol just kidding xD

Should probably do same research

@mistuhjg: you dont need any other MG game before this one. you could get 3 and peace walker but they do not play anything like this and honestly they might put you off MGS games, MGS3 is hard, really hard (im sure a vet will tell me otherwise but as a n00b to the series you will find it hard) i would suggest Ground Zeros, its the Prequel MGSV anyway and plays (the feel of it) the same as V. If you enjoy Ground Zeros (get it second hand it is more like a demo than a full game (it is free on Playstation Plus at the moment i think)) then get MGSV. if you are enjoying the story and want to find out more you can go back to the other games but note they play nothing like this one will, and the story is best understood while you drop acid, in a heatwave while dehydrated during a stroke while you breath n2o... good luck.

@mistuhjg: I recommend getting the HD collection.

If you have time for it before MGS5TPP.

Skip mgs2 (it has nothing major to do with the plot).Play and finish MGS3, then Peace Walker. Then play GZ if you haven't already.

MGS V TPP is set to be one of the greatest games ever made, but it is lore/story heavy, and fan-focused game - imo you need to play previous titles to make the most of it.

@mistuhjg: For the best gameplay I'd recommend MGS3 and MGS: Peace Walker. Besides these two games are the prequel to TPP. On the other hand, the other games in the series are good but there's more cutscenes than gameplay in those.

@mistuhjg: I would absolutely recommend getting at least the HD collection ! That collection is worth alone for the epic masterpiece that is MGS3 !!! And you get MGS2 and Peacewalker as a bonus, plus it will connect to MGSV ^^ trust me just get the collection you will have a blast with it !!

@7tizz:

True, but with MGS and Kojima, this was a tradition for years, so to take it away now is just outright disrespectful of Konami.

@7tizz: Most other devs aren't kojima.
