Fuser Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Welcome to the Official MGS Thread Why? Because we needed one, especially since MGS4 is being released right around the corner. Where do we start? I guess where we left off in that last one... If anyone has any questions about MGS or any other titles in the series, we will answer them for you newbies. Also, post here if you're working on any Metal Gear Solid-related projects or anything like that. We'd love to know about it. Please, keep the flaming to a minimum. There are plenty of people who don't get stuff about these games, so take it easy on them if they sound ignorant. Although it would be good to keep this thread strictly about MGS4, discussion about any of the games in the series is appropriate. Can't think of anything else to add... res.

phoenix360mute Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 freakin sweet, but i forgot what we were talking about as for up coming mgs projects, my duelie mgs 3 1911 project shall be finished shortly, as in weeks LOL Link to post Share on other sites
Lanesracra Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I need to find a copy of MGS1, and that is all. Oh wait, Konami owns at making games. Link to post Share on other sites
Fuser Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 How close are they to the 1911 in the game? Better post some pics res. Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I never really got MGS2, especially the whole La-li-lu-la-lo, the patriots, and Arsenal gear and how it all connects. It'll help if someone does a short summary and explaination for it. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
phoenix360mute Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 nah, konami owns nowt, kojima on the other wand, well, he inspired this the left handed one will have a rail tho, so its a bit off an odd one EDIT: a short summary of mgs2 will take days mate, but to answer one question, the la-le-lu-li-lo was due to the nanomachines inside people telling them that they couldnt say the word patriots, in terms of the world rulers as it were, so if people tried to talk about them it made them sound crazy, therefore media sources wouldnt believe them and such Link to post Share on other sites
Fuser Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Huh we were talking about the M4 in the trailer...could it be an HK 416? I don't remember seeing the handgrip, would be a telltale sign... I really want to built one. I think I'll start off with this: CA M15A4 Some RIS by G&P OD Rail covers CA OD Vertical Grip G&P OD LE Stock FLip-up front sight OD Handguard(?) Maybe an M203 if I really have the time and the fund$ res. Link to post Share on other sites

It'll help if someone does a short summary and explaination for it. Thanks. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Patriots and La-Le-Lu-La-Lo are one in the same. Arsenal Gear was just the huge-*albatross* metal gear that housed the RAYs. The whole patriots deal can be confusing, so heres the wikiexplanation: Clicky res. Link to post Share on other sites
Fuser Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's a beauty. Really sweet even if they aren't perfectly identical. res. Link to post Share on other sites
phoenix360mute Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 the only difference is the sights, the file ing beneath the trigger guard, and the cut into the grips Link to post Share on other sites

WeirdoTransvestite Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I take it that since you used "Official" in the title, that you contacted Mr. Hideo Kojima, in writing, and recieved permission to create an officially sanctioned thread for Metal Gear Solid 4, and that you went through all the legal channels, thereby avoiding a possible lawsuit?

Kingcodez Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 What happened to Meryl in MGS3? I never got to play the game apart from the Demo at a friends house cause I smashed my PS2. Damn thing wouldn't load up Die Hard or GunGriffon Blaze. Didn't she get shot by some girl? Link to post Share on other sites
WeirdoTransvestite Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Meryl wasn't in MGS3. It took place in 1964. Link to post Share on other sites

Lithium Jack Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 Have we had ANY in-game footage of MGS4 yet? As in, not pre-rendered. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The original TGS trailer was not pre-rendered. You can find videos of them pausing during the trailers, and changing the camera angle/lighting around. What happened to Meryl in MGS3? I never got to play the game apart from the Demo at a friends house cause I smashed my PS2. Damn thing wouldn't load up Die Hard or GunGriffon Blaze. Didn't she get shot by some girl? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Metal Gear Solid 3 took place in '64. "Snake" was actually codename "Naked Snake", who later would become Big Boss. They are two very different characters. Meryl was shot by Sniper wolf, but survived, and later Snake has the option of saving her if he resists torture by Ocelot. If you fail, she dies, and Snake escapes with Otacon. In MGS2, I think it's actually assumed that you escape with Meryl, although it seems that Snake no longer shares a relationship with her.

Meryl and Snake lived together "at his place" for some time, until she left without a word, if I remember correctly. Link to post Share on other sites
gazchap Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 EDIT: a short summary of mgs2 will take days mate, but to answer one question, the la-le-lu-li-lo was due to the nanomachines inside people telling them that they couldnt say the word patriots, in terms of the world rulers as it were, so if people tried to talk about them it made them sound crazy, therefore media sources wouldnt believe them and such Sorry, what the hell is this? The nanomachines stop you from saying "The Patriots" ? I've got one word for that - poppycock. No-one truly knows what "La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo" means - some people reckon they are missing characters from the alphabet (remember when Emma Emmerich says "What if there were 30 letters in the alphabet?" in MGS2?) and others think it's just a suitably mysterious name. If the nanomachines were stopping it, why can Raiden, Snake, Otacon, President Johnson, President Sears (Solidus), Ocelot - well, in fact, just about everyone - refer to them as "The Patriots?".

Pyromaster Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 hahaha you sir are an idiot. 'La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo' are a bunch of japanese syllables, PERFECT to make anyone sound like a crazy ######. ''If the nanomachines were stopping it, why can Raiden, Snake, Otacon, President Johnson, President Sears (Solidus), Ocelot - well, in fact, just about everyone - refer to them as "The Patriots?" '' This is because only some people's nanos were progammed with the La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo thing (I think o.o) Link to post Share on other sites
