NERF Metal Gear Solid - Snake SNAKE SNAAAAAKE???!

[@amodh]

Ana is playing on expert mode where as Wren could totally see Sam hiding behind the tree but he played like a dumb NPC. Playing dumb does make the game much better imo.

[@ShellingtonLabs]

I think he actually just didn't see him. The go-pro footage isn't what the players are actually seeing because of their goggles. Like at 9:37 when Sam was dragging the body behind the box.

[@outdoorscholar6016]

If it were me, and I did see him behind the tree but he got out of my line of sight I would have said “permission to investigate last known position”, but investigate in a way that the hero still has time to react and get a knife kill before I turn the corner of the tree. But still, I like Wren’s role playing abilities when it comes to games like this

[@bgpiper]

Wren - "I'm new here, where do I go?" Jake - "What's your name, Bobby?" Wren - "No, I'm Jimmore." Jake - "Jimmore? Good to meet ya." (walks away) Wren - "Nice to meet you too sir... I'm gonna go over here." Acting 10/10

[@HolyRain89]

Isit me or isn't it better if guards don't go and look directly below them on the balcony? Caz i don't think that's how it works on the game itself LOL.

[@jaminius]

xRainZx Eh, the entire point of the game is that no one is pretending through arbitrary rules. So I think that outlawing minor actions like looking down would ruin that element of realism.

[@Gofex1337]

Sure. But some roleplay wouldve made it more interesting. Say not looking up/down and checking bodies if dead/asleep. They already do "forget" when alert runs out.

[@jaminius]

Yeah, maybe you're right. The reason some of these mechanics seem broken is because they're trying to make the pacing better for a video. If you played it yourself, it would probably be a lot longer if snake hides and waits for all the guards to calm down naturally.

[@dekchi8781]

From what I see, the guys are roleplaying cuz theyve played the games and are familiar at the least and the girls are just doing whatever

[@JohnnyStashh]

Leave her alone... Hot Asian Chicks dont play metal gear. xD

[@DanDrakoll]

Sam's master tree strats had those boys bamboozled

[@Fadmash]

Should the guards be allowed to look up or down? Anna's kill of Sam seemed a little bit like cheating, especially since they're trying to go for the classic MGS feel. I don't know, it seems like no one has really been able to get past the first section of the game, asides from D.

[@Gofex1337]

Fadmash i agree. No looking at other floors and checking bodies if dead or asleep like in the game would be nice. In the game the guards would walk up to another guard and closely check if hes dead. If he was sleeping theyd kick them to wake em up and assume they were lazy and napping. In these vids theyd spot a guard on the ground from afar and go full alert. Also id love to see sam kick someone to wake em up. Rather then autowaking, forced kick ❤

[@Fadmash]

I guess that's what this game really comes down to: Who is willing to roleplay as their actual roles. The people who have played/understand MGS play their respective roles - e.g. when Wren is told that the intruder is gone, despite still being able to see Sam, stands down - whereas those who seem to have either little knowledge of the mechanics do their own thing. Of course, this is all for future reference - I think it'd help the game a lot more if there were just a few more ground rules for what the guards can do and what Snake can do.

[@migueeeelet]

But the original game did have guards on different elevations.. It just wasn't too common.

[@Fadmash]

migueeeelet Oh yeah, I know that. I meant are they allowed to shoot above or below the level that they're on? Perhaps I am a little rusty in remembering the mechanics of the game, but I don't seem to remember any guards being able to shoot (or see) above or below the level in which the player would be, unless specified by them carrying, say, a sniper rifle.

[@VhanchyShu]

Shouldn't they shout too that they've seen the enemy before firing? It's totally unfair if someone from above you just shoots without a single knowledge that they're there. Does that happen in the actual game though?

[@tico9951]

10:06 why was she looking over the railing, downwards?

[@jaminius]

Goshdangit. Whenever Snake is about to do something cool, Anna is always in the same place to make sure they can't succeed.

[@lilpan1157]

LMAO YES

[@schwany6703]

TheEpicJman fucking feminists. Lol.

[@lordofcider6640]

Or Ivy. Like running after Snake after she was shot, and then crawling under the garage door and shot him.

[@jaminius]

In that case, they should ban Anna, Ivy, AND Sam.

[@DerpTheDestroyer]

I think you guys should change spawns

[@arch758]

yeah, i was wondering that

[@DarukaEon]

Yeah! To keep things interesting for the people in the house. Because, if it was always from the same spot, they'd subconsciously start to gravitate towards that direction (for the guys patrolling outside).

[@EricChoiniere]

"It's more fun if you play dumb" and yet ALL the guards go chasing after Snake when there's an alert, or peek and shoot from above without warning.

[@BlueBD]

Anna should yell out when she spots. Or at the very least give a very loud Huh!?

[@RoboBitch42]

Eric Choinière I think the only guards who play dumb are Jake Brandon Niko and Wren, the rest take it way too seriously xd

[@EricChoiniere]

Pan Yeah props to Wren for ignoring Sam when he was "hidden" behind the tree :)

[@TheRealAlpha2]

The goggles actually could have made it hard to see him. We're seeing the go-pro footage which is a lot clearer than what he can see.

[@darrinEH]

The highlight of the video is Niko's NPC banter.

[@jay_naidu]

9:02 “Really? That’s awesome” “Well not for him, he got burned by a flamethrower.” *dies

[@NacnudTheGreat]

Great concept and seems to be implemented quite well. I know everything is already filmed (hopefully there are more vids coming soon) but next time you do this game, you should probably make sure the guards know all the rules. Comments indicate that people don't think the camera man should follow Snake, but it makes it a lot more enjoyable to watch, so I would suggest that the guards know that they really aren't supposed to win in this situation (unless Snake fucks up really badly) and just ignore the camera man. An example of this working well is when Sam was hiding behind the tree when Wren, Niko, and Jake were looking for him and they clearly saw him, but pretended not too because he was "hiding". I think the issue is that Anna and Ivy probably don't have as much experience at role playing than the guys. Overall really fun concept and works really well!

[@atsiaz4624]

They already ignore the camera man, they only debatable instance was with Jake in the last video, but the he was clearly in the view of the downstairs guard, if just for a second. I've never played MGS, so i don't really know about guard mechanics and can't really say much about the girs.

[@justadummy8076]

Atsi Akuchu in MGS the guards don’t look down railings at 90 degree angles, and they have to go into alert mode before shooting

[@thezx5795]

I like it, but I don't like enemies being able to shoot from a different floor

[@Xertic94]

What I do not like is that she silently pulled up her gun and started firing without saying it out loud that she spots him. That's what they usually do in MGS

[@Vesohag]

I don't know. Seems kinda unfair that Ana just shot Sam without giving the alarm before. The guards aren't supposed to be the stealthy ones.

[@EatingWaffles]

yeah, the girls never played MGS so they're all tryharding

[@Vesohag]

Shame :/ Well, hopefully next time they play they can follow better the rules/roles and actually played the game(s). :)

You should adjust the rules if you ever do this again. Having people look over the balcony for so long makes a difficult game even harder.

[@korbin58]

People need to start calling their sightings as soon as they see them in this game to make it more like the actual game. It gives notification to the player that they’ve been spotted and it gives the guard the ability to mobilize

[@gxexe373]

Ok, sry but these girls don't know how to be an NPC. You can't look down below a railing or chase someone down at full speed across the house. D, I know u read these, my recommendation is mod the goggles more to limit range of vision, and remove a few guards.

[@grimlyreaper9595]

WarMachine425 well they should keep all the guards but keep the extra in the house like guarding a few of the doors.

[@LaughingMan44]

Man duck Anna, you have to play dumb not try to win

[@justadummy8076]

Clippy right but literally everyone else is still role playing as MGS guards, Anna and ivy were the only ones who weren’t but that was probably due to miscommunication of the rules and lack of experience playing with the guys

[@dexterdore9943]

I kept seeing comments about how "the girls are ruining it" and I was like wow sexist, and then I finished the video and was like oh ok makes sense now

[@Vesohag]

Jimothy Jimbob exactly. It's not about being sexist, it just happened that the girls were the ones here that didn't play along.

[@justadummy8076]

Eh i mean when it comes to things like this I think it’s just part of our nature for boys to play along with the dumb guard act

[@TheRecon614]

Yea I think that next time... they guards shouldn't be looking for where they thing "snake" will be. Like Ana saw wren fall to the ground... she should have said something like "ahh someone fell so that sam knew someone saw." Overall, the guards were playing dumb which makes it fun, but they should be consistent.

[@spinakker14]

Sam was awesome! First I thought he would mess up as quickly as Jake by relying on pure tactics and getting immediately spotted, but then he played the game flawlessly. Who would have thought he needed to look up from time to time

[@Hasharin14]

Next time just be sure to explain the rules to the girls. Guards have to give the alert first. And cant follow snake around all the house

[@ianc.4444]

Guys stop complaining about the damn cameraman. You do realize they have cameramen following people in every real life video? They are used to it at this point just like how actors are used to cameras being pointed at them on set; they put them out of their mind. Plus, they're all friends just having fun. Wren could clearly see Sam behind the tree, but since Sam was "hiding" as Snake, he didn't do anything about it, so with that mindset with the game, do you really think the cameramen are going to give away snake? The guards have set routes...

I think a way to update the game is to have some sort of items to be able to pick up, like different guns for easier fights or make the game harder with reserve soldiers in a break room with shields that are reserved for back up or make the game easier by finding the room first somehow and eliminating them first, so when backup is called, the response is "Sorry we're unable to assist, you must deal with this on your own" and maybe give side objectives or different missions.
