metal gear survival horror.
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendNot what I was hoping for but it works. You’re going to have to invest some time in it to have any fun. Not something you can just jump into. If you’re not going to dedicate some hours you may want to pass on this one.

Separate this from the Metal Gear Solid series.
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendFirst and foremost, Metal Gear Survive is NOT a Metal Gear Solid game, in the sense that Metal Gear Rising is NOT a Metal Gear Solid game. I am having fun with it. I honestly had no interest until the second beta, played with a couple of friends, and had a good time. Best Buy made the purchase a bit easier (20% off and a $10 gift card) and honestly... It is mostly what I've been playing the past two weeks. The gameplay loop scratches the itch I was looking for after coming down from a high playing The Division. The survival mechanics are a bit difficult to combat at first, but it does indeed get easier as you progress. I'm maybe ten missions in at around 26 hours, with maybe 6 of those in co-op. One of the big factors that draws me back is The Dust. It is definitely tense and decisions seem to have heft when you're starting out (and carrying on. I still am worried when I transport into The Dust.) I feel like the sound design is restrained enough to really increase the sense of dread when sneaking around. Plus, having Ito Masahiro in the credits for creature design is a huge sell for me (Silent Hill is one of my favorite series, and I am very bitter about the decisions made around the series.) As to how that unfolds, I am unsure. I've only seen a few different enemy types, and something else. No, the game is not exceptional. Yes, I despise Konami for the choices they've made over the past two to three years. Would this be better without the Metal Gear name? It would help to alleviate the idea that this is truly a Metal Gear Solid game. You could even use the same plot points, I would anticipate, without the name. But I am having fun. It's not going to make it onto any "best-of" lists this year, and that is fine. Am I defending a perfectly mediocre title? I guess, but in the end, I'm finding myself enjoying it and I feel that there is such a stigma around this title that it was doomed from the moment it was announced.

Online only multiplayer game
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.No, I would not recommend this to a friendThis game requires you to be online at all times, so if you don't have internet it's not for you. It's called metal gear but it's nothing like the others and not affiliated, they just wanted to use the metal gear name to sell copies. It's a zombie survival/ base building game but not really that fun. Get metal gear solid 5 instead it's easy dinner and don't need internet connection.

Standalone - stop comparing to past MG series
Posted .I would recommend this to a friendFirst, stop comparing to previous Metal Gear series games. SPOILER ALERT - outside of opener, the core of game thus far is around survival and building, so go in with open mind. Kojima was not here and appreciative as I am of the series with him at the helm, this game is still standalone good. The single player experience is a graphically pleasing combo of 'State of Decay', '7 Days to Die' and 'How to Survive' with a little 'Don't Starve' flavor, and, wait for it, the stealth and sound effects of METAL GEARRRRR. Who knew? Your health is based upon food and water consumption, protection from creatures,...sounds like basic needs. In itself, I'm enjoying the different feeling to it. It is for thinking not rampant running around and I appreciate the challenge that it presents. Though I still need aluminum for building my cooking pot without conversion, GAME!!! Ahem, and I'm back. Collect materials, eat, drink, avoid enemies, survive. It borrows from the Metal Gear name but its not centered in that universe and there are no readily recognizable locations, at least so far, as you are in a separate dimension. I expected closer to Horde mode from 'Gears of War' series for PVE. It is still relatable to that and enjoyable tower defense. You and others are tasked with protecting an area from the enemies for a time limit/objective reached. Pace is accelerated but not uncomfortably so. Also, the multiplayer allows for quick ramp up of inventory to utilize in single player. I did not purchase any microtransactions and so cannot comment on how needed those are at this point in the game. Don't be a gamer who does a lemming i.e. follows along with poopooing a game. Also, it is clear now that I have put in hours on the game that the overwhelming reviews from major outlets did little more than the first 30 minutes (yes, the tutorial is a long one, but very helpful IMO). The game does not even showcase what it could be until toward the end of the tutorial. The access to teleporters greatly improves the gaming experience, which could be slow. But any open world where one is walking/running is slow. My long conclusion is that this is a game taken on its merits. So stop looking for Ocelot, Solid Snake, Big Boss (shows up during the opener though) and focus on SURVIVING. And for those who would review and complain about the slowness, I dare say that one would not survive in an unknown landscape with one bottle of clean water when its hot and no food and RUN AROUND. That is just foolishness! Stealth, forethought and continuation of the game. I encourage otherwise introverted people to play multiplayer Salvage missions. It is co-op (PVE not PVP) and the chance to get materials that you may not already have in the single player experience will also improve one's experience. Anyhoo, I am enjoying this game for its merits and open minded people who enjoy a challenge and progression may enjoy this game more than they think.

Good
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendGood-natured mgs but is not nearly is good as past games. But the multi-player is creative, decent campaign, 30 with gamers club and running on one or best game engines of this generation. Good buy

Better than I expected, but needs polishing.
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendI only rated Metal Gear survival three stars for the simple fact that it could become a decent game with some updates to fix game play. Not to go into detail and list the endless cons of the game, I will only state the biggest gripe I have , as I play the devils advocate for konami. The survival game doesn't really start until after the story is completed and it unlocks classes, these classes should have been available at the start of the game. They could introduce "Heroes" like Boss, Solid Snake, Liquid, Ocelot,...etc to come help with bosses, or raids or just unlocks. The game has potential and I mean a lot of it but it is wasted and it is sad because this could have been a win in Konami's favor if they did this correctly. I know there are people who just don't like konami no matter the case, but if you can pick this up in $9.99 bin, do it. I hope Konami keeps at it and gets back on its feet and make the games we grew to love.

Underrated.
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendThe game gets a lot of hate for being a post-Kojima Metal Gear Solid, but once you get passed the hurdle of the first hour or two, the game opens up and really starts getting fun. The co-op missions are really exciting too.
