I stand by MGS4 stealth being a joke.


Just for the sake of killing any doubt I loaded up my 'The Boss Extreme' difficulty run saved right before final fight, which will present me with a Big Boss rank once the credits finish rolling (they are this very moment).

Screenshot comming up in a sec....or 5 minutes, the credits take ages.



Anyone who played MGS1-3 and bothered to earn a Big Boss rank on them I am almost 100% sure would agree the stealth needed in MGS4 was a joke compared to those 3 games.

 

I agree, but in defense of MGS4, it does provide a much larger gameplay area than the previous games.  Even MGS3, which took place in the jungle had tons of narrow "corridors" that forced more confrontations with enemy patrols.  It also doesn't help that you can start a Big Boss Extreme run with full ammo for all your non-lethal weapons (tranqs of various types, o-rings for shotguns, stun grenades, smoke grenades and more I might be missing).  Whereas in the other games, you had to scrounge around for every weapon and bullet (and in MGS3, silencers).

Lets be honest here, MGS4 stealth was joke anyway. At least this won't be pretending to be something it isn't.

Every single one of your posts are a joke anyways.

Why is EVERY SINGLE post of your's negativity? I'm wondering, were you raised badly, or?

 

It is called being brutally honest.  Opens your eyes.  Try it.

My eyes are open at this very moment, whats your point? Brutally honest? You obviously haven't played MGS4, kid.

Like Taz! said, the stealth is a joke eh? You obviously haven't beaten the game without being caught, or killing anyone. Oh I forgot, you haven't even played it, how would you know anyways?

Grow up.

What a typical pathetic response.  "You haven't even played it".   Try harder.

Because if you played it, you'd know the stealth in it isn't a joke.

Fool.

Oh please. You just don't understand Kylie. That's how he is.

Let him be. He and Claude are both brutal.

Since I'm afraid that it's been caught in the shuffle, I'll repost what I posted earlier:

"...Kojima already confirmed during the Konami E3 Press Conference that this would still be a stealth game, just different from what we're used to (which might mean more action oriented, but stealth nonetheless), and that alone invalidates this entire topic.

Watch from 1:26-1:32"

I'm guessing that it's because Raiden will have a sword.  MGS: Tenchu confirmed?

Kinda off topic but, since some of you like hack n slash I suggest you watch the first 13m of God of War 3. Im afraid that imo, this Metal Gear game doesn't stand a chance.

Why not wait until we some Rising gameplay footage first?

@KylieDog

there is no argument that MGS =/= the best game in terms of stealth any body who played thief, Splinter Cell or even Hitman will know how really stealth works.

MGS has always been about story and delivering that cinematic experience with some stealth elements thrown in there but not so much emphasized on like other games in the genre.

Because that God of Wa footage is 95+ metacritic material, and that's only the first 13m of the game. It is also beautiful.

I can't see a Metal Gear game entering new ground for the first time, beat Santa Monica at their own game. Im a big God of War fan though, so make what you will of my comments.
