THINGS TO KNOW: >I don't care about the Metal Gear series or how this is apparently a cash grab off of it. >I don't care about Kojima or how he got booted off the team or whatever. >I don't mind grindy, repetitive gameplay >I don't mind the first few hours being sucky and difficult >I don't mind the $10 character slots, I only want 1 anyway
So far, nobody's given me any reason not to get it that couldn't be answered with one of these responses, and I don't think anyone will. Prove me wrong, Sup Forums...
There's not much to do in the game. I like it the game, but I really can't recommend it.
Carter Clark
It's a slog and resource collecting heavy. The hunger thirst mechanics are annoying , the story and environment do nothing interesting.
Online is the only thing worth while but even then you need to play single player to be like level 15+ before it isn't you just being carried
Cooper Jones
It is a game so generic and underwhelming you were spend every moment of it thinking about better games it reminds you of that you'd rather be playing.
Brody Bennett
I think I saw in a thread a while back that topping off hunger/thirst keeps it from going down for a good while, although it might have been just a HUD bug. Also, I'm fine with bland story and resource gathering, I've always liked progression that I can actually see and use rather than just lore that the game gives me.
Jayden Gomez
So you don't mind shit games? Ok, bully for you, enjoy the game. What a retarded thing to brag about.
Jose Hernandez
I don't care what you do with your money
Brody James
It's pretty punishing if you die in the game, it just paps you back to the last time you were at the base, so you could potentially lose a lost of progress.
Resources gathering is kinda a free for all. I honestly couldn't tell you where anything on the map was if you were too say to me "hey you need carbon fibre" for example. You just kinda luck into them. That's not to say I found finding shit hard, it just seems... Eh.
I can't say I've ever thought my hunger/thirst thing ever slowed down. I guess it can seem like that cause it only counts from 90% and below
It feels like a game that doesn't respect your time. You run out of stamina really fast in the dust for some reason. It's not even like a tension thing, to make zombies scarier cause your characters slight jog is more than enough to escape.
post end game stuff sounds fun, and if I can ever bring myself to go fight the four waves of fuck knows how long final boss im sure I'll enjoy it
Colton Garcia
The version of Bloody Tears and Vampire Killer songs they put in there are the NES ones.
Jose Gonzalez
This defeats the hedonistic. May your future pastas prosper.
Ian Lewis
If you die and decided to return to base instead of loading from your last save it will leave behind a Lost Box which you can wormhole back to base and recover everything you lost. The box will disappear if you die too much before obtaining the box again and your counter for "Days Survived" resets back to 1.

jp.ign.com/metal-gear-survive/22576/review/metal-gear-survive Pros : Fox Engine, Can approach any situation however you like (Stealth or Combat), Tutorials are great. Cons : Microtransactions are ignorable but cannot be praised, Co-op can become bland, Story and characters are weak.
Nicholas Evans
>>I don't mind the first few hours being sucky and difficult All of the hours will be sucky. But honestly by the sound of it that wouldn't bother you either, go for it.
Samuel Turner
The melee combat leaves a lot to be desired.
Jordan Robinson
these ones are pretty good. Do you know how similar it is to Let it Die? I actually liked that game up until the 30th floor.
Eli Gray
You can't adjust the volumes of individual things like music/voice/sound effects/ambient sounds
Kevin Ward
My only complaints so far was the slow start that made hunger/thirst a bitch to deal with, but after that, I'm enjoying myself. The FOX Engine is always a treat to play on.
Colton Thomas
If you're gonna get it get it now before the community dies. I struggled to get a game on the first week so I'd imagine it would get a lot harder
James Wood
Autist samefag spamming links to his mediocre video in 3...2...1...
Camden Garcia
I actually think the game is better than MGSV. If you liked MGSV but were put off with how pointless the open world/base building was you'll probably enjoy the changes Survive makes that improve on it.
It really just needs more enemy types which I hope are coming in updates.
Not him but I don't think he's coming this time so I'll take his place.
Cameron Nguyen
I played game for 60h and still do, i do not know how that in not much to do.
Austin Torres
what is there in the late game besides just washed up crates and tower defense? not trying to be a dick, it's just that's all i really see
Dominic Bennett
It's MGSV but with mobile-tier microtransactions and every mission ends with a terrible boring wave defense against zombies (put down fence, stab zombies, repeat once fence is broken).
Thomas Thomas
Out of all the fuckonami youtube reviews, This has got to be the most normie-friendly one. I 'm pretty sure he only comes on Sup Forums just to self-promote then fuck off to reddit.
Charles Jackson
I'm exploring the Dito, searching for hidden boxes, with music/colors ect, distress signals, co-op. Need to lvl my ass up to fight frost octopus boss. Also there some containers left too.
Daniel Hill
>maintenance starts lmao
Ian Walker
>It's MGSV but with mobile-tier microtransactions and every mission ends with a terrible boring wave defense against zombies (put down fence, stab zombies, repeat once fence is broken).
Really sick of the misinformation around this game.
Boss fights.
Landon Johnson
Honestly best to stop fighting it. Better a few autistic shitposts than a thread wide argument.
While I'm here, where the hell do I get the recipe for 5.56? Also someone mentioned a high capacity O2 tank in another thread.
Carter Butler
Fences and spears
Aaron Cox
If people would stop sucking Kojima's 3 inch chink cock for 2 seconds and stop hating on Konami for a further 3 seconds, and then give Survive an honest play through, like at least a few hours, you might see that it's not a bad game.
1. I am sick of seeing this compared to previous MGS titles. It's a non-canon survival game. Yes it is has recycled assets from MGS:V, but it's re-tooled to create a survival game.
If you like survival games, Metal Gear Survive is not a bad survival game. It's unforgiving at first, there's a lot of resource scavenging, there's a lot of collecting, and the base building aspect is fun as it corresponds to your own survival, as well as the survival of the people you rescue.
2. There is more open world than MGS:V (lol) 3. Crafting is interesting and building up your arsenal is pretty enjoyable.
Actual cons:
-Matchmaking is shit -Little content insofar
If you're on the fence this is worth the $$ if it ever goes on sale.
Alexander Butler
How the fuck do I get onto the FOB next to Base Camp, I've broken my legs like three times
Tyler Perry
>4 days of farming hard and not a single legendary
Fuck me
How'd you get the advanced crafting shit?
Zachary Moore
waiting for the inevitable sale
Aaron Jenkins
>Also someone mentioned a high capacity O2 tank in another thread I've seen that posted so many times with no one being able to confirm it. It's a lie. Maybe in an update they'll add it as a reward.
I watched this a couple days past and it was like they didn't even get past the first few opening hours of the game.
>trying to fence spear in hard coop
Henry Collins
Mortars and Trackers. Mortars and Trackers. Mortars should have a charge move while they slowly move to your base.
Zachary Kelly
Honestly this game is fun as fuck. If you're not into progression and survival mechanics of course you're not gonna like it. It's also a shame that a lot of the good stuff like subclasses is locked behind tons of hours of single player.
I'd only recommend it if you have time on your hands and like this kind of game. The combat really begins to branch out the further you go, but completing the single player is dull af.
Levi Rodriguez
> Scout in early game Boy, that subclass would rip singleplayer into shreds.
Angel Parker
The main downside is that it's always online or nothing.
I can't play right now because the servers are down.
Elijah Sanchez
most of it is quality of life stuff that seems weird to gate behind a 20ish hour singleplayer. What use is scout post-game really?
Levi Smith
Don't starve is a better game and you can also play together with friends
Mason Diaz
> Camo Skill + Fox Run + Grab Everything + End60 and nothing but a twohanded weapon + Survival Bags equipped Running around at the speed of sound.
Asher Cooper
Speed running for supplies in SP, that's about it, I've seen a few in hard mode co-op and they're absolutely useless.
Hunter Morgan
The single player is fun but the co-op is already dead on PC
Jordan Anderson
I'm having a blast.
Concerned that by next year the servers will be dead and I won't be able to play anymore.
MGSV lasted me a year, and this game seems to be actually complete.
David Barnes
Well the Japs seem to love it.
Hunter Bailey
>Do you know how similar it is to Let it Die? They're completely different games, why even bring LiD up?
Jayden Bailey
>it was like they didn't even get past the first few opening hours of the game. That's because they didn't.
Grayson King
they certainly do. gave it a 7.9 with weird pros and cons unlike the western gaming journalists.
Jayden Wood
In co-op they should have the utility skills equipped so their deployables are more useful and can be fully repaired for no resource cost. They can also fully loot a detonator instantly.
Sebastian Morgan
if you like games like this, its a good one?
Austin Reyes
>and this game seems to be actually complete. It might be more complete than TPP was, but Survive currently has several items you're told about that you have no way to access yet. Like the purple crafting workshops, or the level three base camp.
Ethan Russell
Going full AR jaeger feels so fucking good though
>Concentration Jaeger skill >all 4 armor pieces have ammo usage reduction >fill up AR with over pressure rounds, one large ammo pouch and two regular ammo pouches full >mow down everything in hard without ever running out of ammo
Even better when your gun have quick reload
Lincoln Watson
>>fill up AR with over pressure rounds Are OP rounds other than the pistol multiplayer drops?
Alexander Wright
yes
Chase Powell
How long does fucking maintenance last? The game's been down for two hours.
Nathaniel Martin
3 hours apparently
Austin Bailey
>I want to do thing Then do it, don't be a child screaming for attention because you feel what you want defies the norm.
Asher Thompson
It's a pretty fun game. You'd probably like it judging by your OP.
Michael James
Here's a hint. If a 40 dollar game is only worth it when it's on sale it's not worth it.
Christian Jackson
>If you're not into progression ???
Ayden Cook
>I don't mind that the game's shit I'm going to buy it anyway Then fucking buy it retard. Why make a thread when you're clearly not interested when people raise valid points. Mods will delete threads with actual discussion and keep this shit around.
Landon Gomez
>Muh Kojima >valid point Get fucked.
Joshua Richardson
Did they seriously put Castlevania songs in? The gall on those cunts, after all they've done to kill it.
Logan Gonzalez
Damn, Konami must be getting desperate.
Ryan Bennett
Enjoy poking zombies with a stick for 60 hours telling yourself you're having fun dumbfuck.
Owen Campbell
>Enjoy poking zombies with a stick for 60 hours No one would enjoy doing that. That's why no one except retarded youtube reviewers does it.
Xavier Baker
dunkey's audience ladies and gentlemen
Jacob Morris
>The gall on those cunts, after all they've done to kill it.
The people who made Survive aren't the bad guys. They just go into work and do what they are told, making the best out of the hand they are dealt.
Justin Sanchez
>nigger liked botw with shit combat and shitty bland openworld, but hates same things in Survive Nah man, can't do no wrong
Liam Nguyen
>Nigger
Lol
Levi Robinson
>I don't mind grindy, repetitive gameplay. If that doesn't turn you off from a game. Then you have very low standards and you should get this game.
Benjamin Powell
I know he's white neckbeard fatass, but still he have disgusting shit taste
Colton Russell
If you have $40 to throw around do it. If you’re expecting a decent survival game you will have some fun with it. Just don’t expect anything special.
Brandon Lee
Metal Gear Solid is a cancerous franchise that has hurt videogames more than COD with it's influence. It deserves to die far more than any other franchise alive today.
John Anderson
Hint: he means grinding.
Julian Lewis
>Sup Forums is actually paying money to play this garbage fire
Caleb Walker
It's only because a lot of people hate Konami, so the way to feel unique is supporting trash. Just like how people in this shithole unironically sided with EA during the Battlefront 2 debacle. And Infinite Warfare too, remember when people shat on it? Of course, the contrarians did damage control here.
Connor Lewis
Because MGSV had no grinding at all, oh wait lol.
Dylan Brown
Name 5 titles that were influenced by Metal Gear Solid.
Evan Kelly
MGS spawned the cancerous muh cinematic game cancer trend.
Jayden Butler
It was trash, but aside from the fulton, you could completely ignore it. Here, like in Peace Walker, grinding is mandatory.
Carson Jackson
And MGSV was also a shit fucking game like its watered down zombie mod is, you have a point you want to convey or...?
Daniel Jackson
it's your money faggot
Zachary Baker
> Daily and Weeklyhard mode > Base Camp has been expanded upon allowing more things to be built > Rebalanced Medic Skills > Draw bow much faster Okay this maintenance is cool.
Alexander Adams
Well looks like you can live with all the negatives this game has to offer so why should I try to convince you not to buy it?
I think you'll have fun with it if you're into zombie survival games.
Jason Allen
>bawwwwwwwwwww people are enjoying the game stop it!
Caleb Ramirez
>I don't care that the game is trying to rip me off, that it has cancerous practices or that it's repetitive and boring Sounds like you would play absolutely anything out there.
Sebastian Wright
>Co-op can become bland It's the best part of the game, what the fuck
Kayden Perry
The marketeers are obsessed with the idea that everyone hating this game are Kojimadrones, and this, that Sup Forums likes MGSV even though Sup Forums already spent an entire year shitting daily on that game.
Liam Price
I was skeptical myself but imagine a zombie game with legit production value. I'm talking decent netcode(at least for me), and zombies actually being a threat and working animations and just not being an early access game. It can be pretty unforgiving sometimes too since most of the areas are covered in dust and you need oxygen not to die there. Oxygen can run out and you can't see the map in unexplored areas so while there are some landmarks you might get lost and lose quite a bit of progress. Only check points are visiting the base.
It does start off pretty slow so rush the yellow missions if you want more shit to play with. I do wish they introduced different zombie types earlier though.
