All Games -- Metal gear solid 4 guns of the patriots
Developed By: Kojima Productions
Published By: Konami
ESRB: Rating Pending
Gameplay
The game's single-player mode will follow a similar stealth blueprint to previous Metal Gear titles, where the player (Solid Snake) must negotiate the game world in order to progress, using stealth and cunning in addition to traditional combat.The game features many of the same characters as Metal Gear Solid 2, including Raiden, Otacon and Naomi Hunter. It will utilize a similar third-person and top-down switchable camera featured in Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence, but reportedly allowing the freedom to play in first-person mode.[2] The Close Quarters Combat system will also be reprised, allowing players to interrogate guards for information and supplies.
Players will also utilize a new form of camouflage called "Octocamo", which replaces the camouflage system featured in MGS3. Grey-black when disabled, the Octocamo suit allows the wearer to blend in with any surface in the manner of an octopus.
Snake will also be partnered with a robotic drone, which allows communication between characters, serving as a substitute to the CODEC radio system from previous games. It also appears capable of engaging enemies.[2]
Due to a lack of rumble feature on the PlayStation 3, Hideo Kojima has stated that the game was designed around a new feature. He also stated that if rumble were to be implemented before the game's release, then they would have to choose between the two.[3] Rumble has been an important feature in the rest of the Metal Gear Solid series.
Kojima has also stated that he is looking to use psychological effects of battles, where this can directly affect the gameplay.
Plot
Set in 2015, six years after the "Manhattan Incident" (the events of the Plant chapter from Metal Gear Solid 2) as it was confirmed in an official interview with Kojima who said that Solid Snake's age in the game is 43. Snake appears to be 20 years older due to his body rapidly aging from a disease that has been briefly mentioned in past titles. Metal Gear Solid 4 portrays a world where the restriction of military intervention on foreign soil has eased, leading to demands on mercenaries to fight proxy battles for business purposes, fuelling the need for private military companies (PMCs).
However, the five largest PMCs are revealed to be owned by a single mother company, Outer Heaven (the name of Big Boss's mercenary company and fortified nation in the original Metal Gear), operated by Liquid Ocelot. It is revealed that Outer Heaven has amassed a military equivalent in manpower to the United States' own, and is now preparing to launch an armed insurrection. With the world once again in crisis, Solid Snake is deployed to three locations: The Middle East, South America and Eastern Europe.[4]
