From a Konami press release:
[quote]METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES features new advances made possible by Kojima Productions' FOX Engine, such as radical new game design, day and night cycles, and weather conditions that will all dynamically affect gameplay. The missions are designed to ease players into the new control and gameplay advances that will be an integral part of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN.
The METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES storyline follows the series' hero, Big Boss, as he infiltrates a remote Cuban prison camp on a rescue mission, all while trying to remain undetected. Explosive plot lines develop quickly as he finds himself on behind enemy lines with little options for help.
"The advanced capabilities of the FOX Engine are allowing me to express the story of METAL GEAR SOLID in a new way," explained Hideo Kojima, Creator of the METAL GEAR SOLID series, and head of Kojima Productions. "There will be a significant difference in what METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN brings to the series, so we want to ease players into the new open world environment and its potential, allowing them to fully benefit from all that the new game offers. As such, METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES has been designed to introduce key elements, while setting up the events of METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN."
METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES will be released in Spring 2014 on PlayStation®3, PlayStation®4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One systems. The game will be available in retail stores nationwide on current generation systems for the MSRP of $29.99 or via download for $19.99. For PlayStation®4 and Xbox One, the game can be downloaded for $29.99 suggested retail price.P

Thoughts on this?
-
What's the difference between that and Phantom Pain? I am not a MGS fan but it seems like there are a billion games
-
Why the hell is one mission $30 on next gen?
-
Well time for me to go to GameStop and put another game on preorder. That cheap price doe :)
-
I thought this was going to be apart of The Phantom Pain as well? So we´re getting Tanker Chapter/Operation V for 20 dollars? Then how much will The Phantom paIN, the main part of the game, cost? Although I´m confused and not as pleased as I´d like to be, still very excited to have a date as to when expect it.

Edited by ToastyWaffles: 11/5/2013 2:40:27 PMWhen they said GZ was the prologue to Phantom Pain, I thought they were both the same game. It can never be simple with Kojima can it?

Edited by Votable: 11/5/2013 1:54:37 AMStill wonder why no next gen retail prices. And gotta wonder why it's sold separately, it does have less stuff than Phantom Pain like smaller map, no day/night cycle but couldn't it be with the other game. From some video on it seemed like there was a mission select screen so maybe it's gonna be like PW in terms of menu and gameplay.

So, wait, is it called "Ground Zeroes" now? I thought it was "The Phantom Pain"?
-
Didn't they say they would end this series a few years ago?
-
Hyped.

$20 for the Tanker Chapter is what I'm reading into this. I'll probably check it out, but my hype is pretty mild right now.
-
So this is what he has done. Meh. Still buying it =D
-
Dislike it's digital for ps4.
-
Milking in progress.
-
Scrub question here. I haven't played MGS since 1 on my PS1. What're the differences between Big Boss and Solid Snake? And what games do you play as the 2 different characters? [spoiler]Don't judge me.[/spoiler]
-
I really hope this isn't as short as the Tanker Chapter.
-
so... not with the phantom pain? y u do dis koji woji
