Im really disappointed witht his game, 6 hours of playing and I already beat it. Waited 3 years for it to play for 6 hours. What a jip. The ending seemed rushed as well, even though it took a good hour for it to end.

Somehow i dont believe you, even if you skipped all the cutscenes i dont see how in hell you wold be able to beat it in 6 hours.

There is no way you beat the game in 6 hours if you watched any cutscenes, nice try. All the cutscenes themselves probably amass to at least 6 hours, probably more.

The game is not meant to be bought and cutscenes skipped on the first playthrough - If you do that, what are you even doing buying the game in the first place?

Actually it's been done in 4 hours 36/46 mins (Around one of the two) with all the cutscenes skipped as a speed run to get Big Boss ranking - To achieve Big Boss you need to complete the game on Big Boss Extreme, and in under 5 hours.

Hardly an easy feat anyway.

Holy Crap -_-, is there a video of that???

Do the videos count as "time played"?????

?

Now that is the next thing I'm going to do. I decided to try The Boss Extreme challenge hehe. I know it is going to frustrate me :s

They explained his blood in MGS2, It's a replacement blood that holds more oxygen and clots much quicker, plus it's full of nanomachines. I assume that he never had it removed after the events of MGS2.

His blood in MGS4 is different from the blood in MGS2. He got his new body and new blood sometime between after MGS2 and before MGS4 started.

Going to put that in spoiler tags just in case.

lol, yeah.. does'nt it apply to sundays aswell? I loaded up the game for a quick bash yesterday and as soon as I paused it that '20% off at Drebins Shop today' sign popped up over the menu.. was well chuffed :laugh:

Does that apply ON top of the 50% discount you get in Act 5? so 50% in Act 5 + playing Act 5 on a Wednesday = 70% off all weapons?!

I tried stacking discount, sadly it doesn't work! Currently at the start of a Hard run, following my initial Normal 2 run. I'll do this, then an easy run, then an extreme, then maybe I'll try for the BBE.

Does that apply ON top of the 50% discount you get in Act 5? so 50% in Act 5 + playing Act 5 on a Wednesday = 70% off all weapons?!

Well as a reference (read only if you beat it once) The Bandana and the Stealth Camo cost $5Million DB normally, in Act 5 for me when I played Sunday it was only $2Million DB. So it goes 50% for Act 5 down to $2.5Million then 20% again to $2Million

I have a question about the final stats...

I see that he killed 0, do machines count as kills, like if i kill Gekkos or if i kill the frogs on that stage where you meet Meryl or the stage where you ride the bike with Big Mama... what about bosses, does that count too???

    • For a guy who claims to hate Farage and the ignorant, gullible, rightwing racist skinheads sponsored by Putin that his lies represent, you sure are quoting them time and time and time again, mate. I guess you're conveniently ignoring the fact that your country and commonwealth just happened to work much better when it was still part of the E.U.? Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.
    • Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
