15 min MGS 4 gameplay footage today at 11am est

Just woke up, and came online asap. And all i can say is.....

OMFG. DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDE

I want this soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad. Def, Halo, and Splinter Cell Killer now.

Can't wait until spring of 2008! That vid was full of fuggen pwnage man!

Ok, time to discuss the 15 min gameplay.....

DISCUSS!
 
Clo you high? Its not a halo killer. Complete differnt game type. Splinter Cell is more like it, and all MGS's are SplinterCell killers lol. But anyways, the gameplay looks real cool. Some cool little features. I realy like how action is really happening without you even being involved. Allowing you to decide to jump in, or pick people off and whatnot. I am hopin with new AI capabilities the troops will have huge sweeping patterns and maybe some random battles. Not just the same 10 step pattern as previous MGS's used. As for visuals, Snake looks good. Explosions and dust look good. The walls and structure texture are average. The guns look like shit. But meh this is not supposed to be a FPS, the overall gameplay looks great. And anything that is not visually great can be thrown into the "Art style" excuse barrel i guess. Will be good game, finally i can stop playing MLB on ps3;;;
 
Personally I'm very excited about the FPS mode. I prefer the traditional controls for sneaking and jumping people, but when you're fighting a boss battle I think FPS is preferable.

Also like the camera. Stationary camera in earlier games was stylistically cool but it was a bitch when stuff was happening south of the character.
 
I found that incredibly awesome :D I agree that in FPS mode the hand + gun look a little.. hmm.. odd.. but meh, I'm used to MGS in third person so I'll be doing that most the time :P

I can NOT wait for this game and I really hope it comes with complete online play cause it looks so promising.
 
I don't think MGS4 itself is going to have online elements, or if it was stated to have they removed them.
However there's a separate title in the works for PS3, titled Metal Gear Online, which was announced at the MGS 20th Anniversary Party in Japan last night, which will use the gameplay/engine of MGS4.

Some links, including info about the Japan-only closed beta:

No lie, I've watched this video over 10 times, and still cant stop watching it. It's so amazing how the game has improved from the previous ones. The new gameplay elements are hawt, and the fuggen octocam is made of full win.
 
Doubt i will be able to play this as a FPS. Kinda need to see all around you. Any arial advantage with the camera has helped me in past. FPS mode just doesnt work in this game, but wont hurt if some people try it. And over the shoulder looks better anyways lol, like RE4.
 
I doubt there'll be any problems with FPS mode but I still think it'd be awkward for me :P I really can't wait for this game. ~_~
