Perhaps developers could have had a better shoehorned multiplayer if they had mroe time.

I think project was way over budget enough, to add in more time would be sinking more money in. In a perfect world we would let all the developers make their dream project and it will be profitable, but this isn't a perfect world. 

PS. A part of me is just sick of people blaming Konami and not Kojima Production. 

The only hint on the finacials avaliable to the public is the creation of the fox engine itself. However, the creation of a new engine is typically an investment that goes far beyond a single game. (Unless Konami uses it for PES, it was a real waste of money)

And I agree that the Konami blaming needs to stop, but only because its a bandwagon now and its actually discrediting those, like me with legitimate concerns/complaints of Konami.

We do know that game was rushed however because of the dissolution of Kojima productions and the short time period between GZ and TPP (A little over a year). Games have been alleged to be rushed with much less information, and we also know game delay was not an option, unless the hired a new team to finish the game (lol)

Furthermore, when you have a game that supposedly supposed to sell your new engine, it would make more sense to delay it rather than other cases.

So just because their is a bandwagon, doesn't mean the incitor of that bandwagon is wrong. Kojima designed the FOB system, but Konami rushed the production. We don't know how complete the former was, but we do know the details about the latter.

 

Like I said in the other thread, if you have a problem with the overall gameplay, story, characterizations thats Kojima, but its obvious that Konami was responsible for missing or incomplete features, or anything else that would've benefited from extended, possibly reasonable, development time.
